Talking to the Moon

Ronja T. Lejonhjärta

Honesty

A few days go by. The twins have been busy with pack business, and I have been training with the warriors.

Normally, omegas would be on kitchen duty or doing other menial but necessary tasks, but since I had proven myself capable from a young age, the former alpha has taken me under his wing and trained me himself.

Alpha Darren, the former alpha and the twins’ dad, is still in charge of some pack business, like the fighters and training, so that the twins can focus on other things.

The twins train with us most days and are the best fighters in the pack. I am faster and nimbler, both in wolf form and as a human, but they are stronger and fight with more brutality than most.

“Olivia, go left… Good. Now strike up… That’s it,” Alpha Darren instructs me as I take on Michael, one of the best warriors in the pack after the twins. “Pin him down… Now, Olivia!”

I follow his instructions and have Michael pinned to the ground with his arm behind his back in no time. I let go of his arm, stand up, and start panting, trying to level my breathing and pulse out.

Alpha Darren draws me closer to him and wraps his arm around my shoulder as he leads me toward the pack house and the showers.

“Olivia, I want you to reconsider my offer to join the lycan training. It would be good for you and the pack.”

The best warriors of any pack go to the Lycan Academy. The training lasts for two years, and any wolf who finishes the training gains skills and a physique unmatched by regular wolves.

They are gained through two years of hard work and magic and are the highest honor among wolves and their human counterparts.

“I know, Alpha Darren, but I can’t leave.” I want to go, I do, but I would be lying to myself if I said that I want to go more than I want to stay here with the twins.

“What will you do when you—or they—find your mate? I know you love them, but you can’t let them get in the way of your future.” Alpha Darren tries to reason with me. His concern is genuine; he loves me despite my omega status.

“But I’m just an omega. The Academy won’t accept me.”

Alpha Darren stops and looks me in the eyes with his hands on my shoulders.

“Now, we both know that’s not true. You are so much more. That’s the only reason I have allowed my boys to pursue you…for now.” He looks at me with a meaningful look.

I look back at him with knitted eyebrows, confused. “For now?”

“Let’s be honest, Olivia. You are a wonderful girl and have many talents, but you won’t be the luna of this pack. You are an omega, after all,” Alpha Darren explains, while rubbing both my arms in comfort.

I am not shocked; my station in the pack has never been a secret, and I know my lot in life isn’t by their side, but it still hurts to hear someone who has been like a father to me for so long admit it.

I look down at the ground, trying to hide my disappointment.

Alpha Darren lifts my head with one hand. “Now, will you at least think it over? The deadline is soon and I have to inform them of which pack members I’m sending.”

“Yes, Alpha Darren.” I kiss him on the cheek and head inside the pack house for some food and a shower. Normally, I run into the shower with excitement, but today, I slowly walk there with hunched shoulders and a frown.

While I am in the middle of my steaming hot shower, belting out some random song on my playlist reserved for bad days like there is no tomorrow, I feel two arms wrap around my waist.

“Don’t quit your day job, Little Omega,” Liam chuckles.

I turn around and wrap my arms around his neck. “Wasn’t planning on it.”

“But I have to admit that seeing you sway your ass to the song was a turn-on.” He pushes his erection into my stomach. His arms move lower, and his hands land on my ass.

He squeezes and then smacks one ass cheek. “I was watching you train. You’re getting very good. Soon you might even be able to beat Jameson.”

“Oh, only Jameson and not you?” I laugh. He starts kissing my jawline and works his way down my neck, lingering over the mate mark spot. His elongated teeth graze it, causing shivers to go down my body. If only…

“I’m better than him. You can’t beat me.” He smirks. “Turn around,” he demands.

I turn around and let him massage my breasts, paying extra attention to my nipples. “Bend over,” he demands again.

As soon as I am bent over, I feel his hardened erection at my entrance, and then he thrusts inside. His large, hard dick hits my sweet spot immediately, and he stills.

After a few moments, he starts to thrust in and out, building both of our orgasms.

I press my hands against the shower wall to steady myself, and his arms wrap around my waist. He presses his steel rod deeper in until I feel dizzy from the pressure.

“Liam, harder,” I demand, and Liam pounds into me faster and harder than before. “I’m close,” I moan.

“Me too… Where do you want it?”

“In me. Deep in me.”

He thrusts a few more times and spills his seed inside my convulsing vagina. His head rests on my back while he catches his breath. My skin tingles from his touch.

He pulls out and starts washing my body, lingering on my folds and causing his cock to harden again. I smirk and step out of the shower, teasing him and his throbbing manhood.

“Get back here, Little Omega,” he demands, but I dart out of the bathroom and into my bedroom, where Jameson is waiting on my bed, stark naked.

“I should have known you were around here somewhere.” I walk over to him and straddle him as Liam comes running into the room.

“Too late, brother, she’s mine now.” Jameson chuckles as he guides my wet entrance onto his waiting erection. I start riding him and at the same time hold eye contact with Liam, who is stroking his dick, watching me fuck his twin.

Jameson slaps my ass cheek hard, and the pleasure from the sting spreads through my body. He nuzzles his head in my neck and licks my mate mark spot. It drives me wild, and I start riding him harder.

He slaps my ass cheek again and then grips my ass hard, helping me raise off him and then slam back down on his dick.

Liam is still stroking his large cock, never taking his eyes off my bouncing breasts as I ride his brother. “Cum for me, Liam. I want to see you cum.”

Jameson’s moaning increases, and his breathing is labored. I can hear their heartbeats as they increase with my own and before long, all three of us reach our high.

We collapse on the bed and the twins embrace me, holding me tight until we fall asleep.

***

I wake up with arms tangling around me. I reach for my phone and check the time: 2:34 a.m. Great. Since I am unable to fall back to sleep, I decide to untangle myself from the twins and ungracefully crawl out of bed.

A few minutes later, I am standing by the bed, out of breath, and butt naked with my hand on my hips.

“Well, that took more effort than it should have.” I huff into the silent room. The moon is shining through the curtains of the balcony, and I walk toward it.

I step out on the balcony and sit down on a lounge chair.

Werewolves are naturally calmed by the moon and will seek it out whenever something troubles us, but I take it a step further—I talk to the moon. I never expect to get an answer back, but it usually makes me feel better.

I started this after I lost my father as a pup and didn’t have any other family. I have never met my mother, and they didn’t have any other children.

My parents weren’t mates, and apparently, she met her mate when she was in her third trimester with me. Her mate didn’t want anything to do with me, so she left hours after giving birth to me. Aren’t I lucky?

I lay back in the chair and stare at the moon. It is a waxing gibbous, so the moon will be full tomorrow night on my birthday.

A full moon affects supernatural creatures more than humans; werewolves even more so than others. Unusual behaviors and heightened emotions are common on a full moon, and you never really know how someone will react.

“I don’t know what to do. The twins… I love them, but I’m scared. Scared that they will do the same thing Mom did to Dad. It would kill me.

“Maybe I should do what Alpha Darren has asked of me and join the Lycan Academy. I need some guidance.” I run my hand over my face and sigh. “You got nothing? As always. Fine. Maybe tomorrow will clear something up for me.”

“What are you doing?” I whip my head around to find Liam leaning on the doorframe. “Talking to the moon again?” He smirks.

“Maybe.” I stand up and lean on the railing. Liam takes three steps toward me and rests his arms on my hips.

“You are a strange one, Little Omega. Cute, but strange.” He kisses me on the tip of my nose and then leans down to nuzzle his head in my neck. He mumbles something in my neck, too low for me to make it out.

“What?”

He pulls back and looks at me. “I…love you,” he repeats with a sad look on his face. His fingers gently caress my cheek.

I reach over and cup his face with my hand. “What’s wrong? Why do you say it like that?” Before Liam has time to answer, I see Jameson walking out on the balcony.

“Because you turn twenty tomorrow, and you will find your mate… This will be over.” Jameson’s voice booms behind Liam.

Liam steps to the side to let Jameson get closer to me, and they both embrace me like it’s the last time we will feel our naked skin against each other. For all I know, it may very well be.
