== Sorry it took so long I had to re-write twice, I tried to do as some of you suggested. I hope you like this instalment. Remember all criticism is good criticism so keep it coming. Also to the person who found my time line confusing, sorry I didn't put enough space between each section of the chapter, I think I fixed it this time, but you'll find out in this chapter exactly why she healed as fast as she did and the time frame as that was how I wrote the story...

== 

*

Nathanael walked out of Amy's room two weeks later after checking to see how she was healing. He was frowning as he walked into the library. Wolfgang glanced up from some mail, "What's wrong Nathanael?" Wolfgang asked hoping everything was alright with Amy.

Nathanael sat in the chair across from Wolfgang, "Everything is wrong Wolfgang." Nathanael said frustrated.

"Explain." Wolfgang asked as he put his papers aside. 

Nathanael snorted; it was not as easy as that. "If Amy is human, I'm a fox." Nathanael told Wolfgang bluntly.

Wolfgang sighed; he lent on the desk and pressed his fingertips together. "Explain." he said again, if he had to drag the answers out of Nathanael he would.

"Granted I don't treat humans as often, but even I know how long their bodies take to heal, as long as there is no infection, no complications, she still should be bed ridden today; in fact she should not be here today, all medical advice and knowledge pointed to her death. Her ribs, her broken ribs would not now be greenstick fractures; her collarbone is healed as if it was not broken. Wolfgang it's only been two weeks, a normal human would still be in a medical induced coma, would have needed multiple major surgeries, she only needed her bones set." 

Nathanael stood and paced. He turned to Wolfgang as he paced, "I'll say it again, if she's human I am a common fox."

Wolfgang tensed, if Nathanael was right then that changed things. "But she swears she's human?"

Nathanael slammed his hands on Wolfgang's desk. "She is not human, when will that sink into your skull."

Wolfgang lent back in his chair, he did not need to prove dominance; some times conceding ground could gain him an advantage. "Fine, tell me what she is then?"

Nathanael frowned and pushed off the desk. He started pacing again only this time it was with a thoughtful purpose. "She's not Were, we would smell it on her and more importantly Bastion would have seen it."

Wolfgang nodded, that was true, Bastion looked at a person and saw their animal before he saw them, he would have known instantly if Amy were Were. However, there were more then just the Were, there were other beings who were most defiantly not human, but those beings were distinct. Amy to all intensive purposes was human; she acted human, smelt human.

"I could take an Aura photo and have it tested." Nathanael supplied hoping his Alpha's natural curiosity would surface and allow him to take the picture, most readers preferred to meet the person but Wolfgang would not allow that, not until he had sealed Amy to him

Wolfgang frowned, "I didn't know you knew a reader."

"I know two," Nathanael answered. "They are both considered to be quiet good."

Wolfgang nodded giving him leave to do the test. "Oh... I have to head into Harrisburg next Friday." 

Nathanael frowned why was his Alpha bringing that up, he didn't really need to know, "And?"

"And, Amy's home is in Harrisburg. She's expressed an interest to go home, I how ever want to try to talk her into returning; I'm going to talk her into being my mate."

Nathanael scratched his chin as he considered his answer. "That will make it three weeks since the fever broke. At the rate her body is recovering she should be completely healed I can't see any reason to keep her here if she's healed."

Wolfgang flicked his paper open as he waited for Shia, a pride leader who wanted to talk about his son going to a private school in Wolfgang's territory. Wolfgang wanted this to hurry up so he could have dinner with Amy and convince her that what sparked between them should be explored. To trust him so he could take her back to his home, to keep other men from her until he convinced her to be his mate. He had brought her with him when he had to go back to the city she called home, giving her a chance to leave if she wanted but also to pack what ever she wanted to come with him. He smiled as the much older man slid into the seat across from him so he decided to get straight into business. "Okay Shia... I want this done quickly..." 

Shia smirked at Wolfgang. "You're testier then normal Wolfgang..."

Wolfgang smiled; Shia was definitely right about that. "I've found my mate... now all I have to do is talk her into accepting me." 

Shia smiled pleased, maybe now the unmated women will look elsewhere. "Good luck to you and the female sure is a lucky one." 

Wolfgang snorted at Shia's comment; most would disagree. He however would not voice Nathanael's idea that she wasn't human not until they had proof. "She's human." 

Shia's eyebrows went up at Wolfgang's statement. "How did you get close enough to a human to learn she was the one?" Shia asked. 

Wolfgang grimaced he was still not convinced that Amy forgave him for what he had done. "Chance and accident," Wolfgang replied.

As Wolfgang did not want to go into it, Shia decided to ignore it. "Okay... straight to business, I wouldn't dream of keeping you from snaring your mate. I would like my son to go to a prep school in your territory, as I understand it; it was the same prep school you went to." 

Wolfgang smirked. "He can go to the prep school, he can also have wandering rights to the town attached but he can not without due warning go anywhere else. He will be escorted by pack to and from the school and he will be watched, if he breaks these rules or any of our laws I will personally beat the crap out of him or kill him depending on what he has done."

Shia nodded he could accept those restrictions, "Agreed." Shia sat back and sipped his coffee. "So tell me about her." Shia asked.

Wolfgang glared at him. "She's mine...," he said between clinched teeth.

Shia raised his hands to show Wolfgang he was not interested in her. "I have a mate remember..." Shia reminded him.

Wolfgang nodded and rubbed his face, "Sorry Shia, it's just she's not mine yet..."

Shia nodded, although a Were-panther, he could understand the possessiveness coursing through Wolfgang. The fact she was human added a completely different stress to it, if she was, Were he would have simply taken her, but she was human, he had to tread softly. "How has she reacted, you have told her?" Shia asked making small talk.

Wolfgang nodded, "I was honest, I told her what I am and that I want her for my mate but that I would do things the way humans find their mates. She has not screamed or shunned my touch. When she asks a question I answer truthfully." 

Shia nodded that was the best way to be although normally he would be preaching caution, about not telling her but he wanted her for his mate and therefore his equal she had the right to know. "So where are you meeting her?" Shia was looking over Wolfgang's shoulder as he spoke. His eyes were riveted on the petite dark haired, pale-skinned beauty that had just walked in. Men of his pride watched her as if she was prey, sexual prey.

Wolfgang checked his watch as he spoke. "She is meant to be here around now."

"Let me guess petite, pale skin and black haired." Shia asked.

Wolfgang nodded and turned. Shia heard Wolfgang's soft growl the men of his pride would not have. Gillian quickly got to Amy's side and steered her over to Wolfgang. Wolfgang stood and glared at the two toms that had moved to block Gillian. Shia stood and jerked his head telling his tom's to back off. Amy glanced between the two groups wondering what she had stepped into; she tugged the hem of her mid thigh high black dress. Wolfgang shot one more poisonous looks at the tom's as he sat Amy down. Shia and Wolfgang sat.

Amy let over to Wolfgang to talk quietly. "What have I stumbled into... should I have been late?" 

Wolfgang lent in and gently kissed her, he then introduced her to Shia. "Amy this is Shia, those men over there are toms in his pride." 

Amy held out her hand and Shia kissed it. He could understand Wolfgang wanting to get close to this woman, if Shia had spotted her first he would have tried to get her; he would have talked his mate into allowing her to be his second mate. "Forgive them Amy; they were only doing as is there nature demands them to do." 

Amy nodded she was beginning to understand. "Are you Snow Leopard, panther or cougar?" She asked.

Shia smiled pleased that she was accepting things as easily as she was. "Panther," He replied as he stood, he knew he was not wanted here. "Enjoy your dinner." He bowed as he tucked his chair in. "Miss Amy." he walked over to his men to quickly tell them to forget her as she was Wolfgang's then walked over to a table across the restaurant and sat.

"Why didn't anyone react to that?"

Wolfgang chuckled at Amy's question, she was about to learn there were a lot more Were then she originally thought in the world. "This Amy... is a Were restaurant. Run by Were, staffed by Were, for Were, the humans who frequent this place are normally friends of Were or are aware of what this place is." 

Amy nodded but frowned, "But this place has a really good reputation." 

Wolfgang nodded, "I know... I had to pull a string to get us in today. Shia and I were going to talk business at the bar, our territories over lap on this city so this place is neutral for both my pack and his pride. If he wants to come onto what is mine he has to ask permission and visa versa." 

Amy nodded. "So..." She asked wanting to know what business, he had to discuss.

Wolfgang smiled touched by her eagerness to learn. "Shia's eldest son got accepted to a prep school in my territory, he ad to ask permission for his son to attend, I allowed it but put restrictions. It is acceptable." 

Amy nodded as the waiter handed her an oversized menu and removed the newspaper. Wolfgang lent in close and made his recommendations on the menu. Amy worried her lip as she considered the menu. Wolfgang lent in and kissed her, he sucked and nibbled on her bottom lip, the waiter waited. The design of the restaurant meant that no one could see the tables around them, it allowed for privacy. The waiter had seen much more then a simple kiss.

Amy broke the kiss and glanced at the waiter who smirked. Wolfgang stood as he heard a commotion and went to investigate. They waited. Wolfgang returned straightening his jacket. "So have you decided what you would like?" He asked as if nothing had just happened.

"What happened?" Amy asked, Wolfgang sighed but knew he had to answer, complete honesty or he knew he would loose her.

"Just a little misunderstanding, they've taken it out the back." Wolfgang sat as he answered her question.

Amy nodded; she could accept that answer. "The calamari sounds good."

Wolfgang smiled. "Sounds, trust me it is good," he turned to the waiter. "We'll have the garlic and sesame prawns for starters then the calamari for main." the waiter nodded and wrote up their order.

"Would you like the chief's recommended wines for each meal or would you like me to call the wine waiter to make your own selection." The waiter asked trying not to eye Amy over, as he knew who Wolfgang was.

Wolfgang smiled. "The chief's, inform him I'm here." 

The waiter nodded and walked off. Wolfgang turned his attention completely to Amy. He gently took up her hand and stroked her knuckles, the waiter returned and discretely put the bread down and glasses of fruit juice. They vanished just as quietly as they had come.

Wolfgang reached forward and stroked her jaw. "So... have you decided." he asked gently, he didn't want to push her but he didn't know how much longer he could stand not knowing if she would come back with him.

Amy pulled away. "Do we have to do this now?" 

Wolfgang felt his heart go heavy, she was going to stay here, she wanted out of his life. "No... we don't." Any time with Amy was good time even if this was going to be his last dinner with her. 

Wolfgang's brother joined them. "Wolfgang." 

Wolfgang smiled stood and hugged his brother pounding his back in a friendly manner, "Isaiah." Isaiah turned his attention to Amy and bowed surprised that his brother had a date. "This is Amy," Wolfgang said with a big smile on his face, he did love his older brother.

"Amy." Isaiah pulled up a chair. 

"Amy this is my brother Isaiah." Wolfgang introduced him in a friendly manner. 

Isaiah held out his hand and when Amy slid her hand into his, he kissed it. He released her hand and sat. Isaiah studied his brother. "So she's the reason you pulled my string to get you a table." 

Wolfgang smirked. "What is the point of being your brother if I can't use you to get a table... how is Tammy." 

Isaiah smiled. "She's getting big, the bets are still even as to if we'll birth a litter of kittens or a litter of pups."

Wolfgang smiled pleased for his brother. "Do you know how many? I need to know if I'm going to have enough gifts."

Isaiah nodded and fished out his wallet to get the ultra-sound pictures. He offered on to his brother. "Two... thank goodness."

Wolfgang studied the ultra-sound and offered it to Amy who smiled as she looked at the picture.

Isaiah decided to get onto more pressing issues as Wolfgang handed the picture back. "Now, you're wine... since your rich I won't give you the normal wines, I have two bottles of Hunter valley..." 

Wolfgang's jaw dropped in complete surprise. "How did you manage to get an Australian dingo pack to sell you their award winning wine?" He asked.

Isaiah smiled as he answered his brother's question. "My secret... now both will do well with your dishes but you must decide if you want a mild dry or a sweet."

"Dry please." Isaiah smiled at Amy as she had made the request.

"Then dry you shale have." He stood and went back to his kitchen. Amy turned to Wolfgang.

"You don't mind." She asked Wolfgang. 

Wolfgang shook his head. "I would have gone the dry as well."

Amy nodded pleased. "So Isaiah is pack but his mate is pride."

Wolfgang nodded and prepared some bread. "It is common these days since the packs and prides are no longer fighting over territory." He answered.

"Dingos?" Amy asked. 

Wolfgang chuckled. "Yes... they aren't exactly wolves but they are of the K-9 species, all dingos in Australia are actually Were there is a whole island of pure dingos most are being bred out and are becoming Were-dogs."

Amy nodded. Their garlic prawns arrived with the chilled white wine. They ate in comfortable silence. Amy had mixed feelings, one moment she wanted to go with Wolfgang the next she wanted to get as far away from him as possible. Their main followed seamlessly and to their surprise so did the desert.

"We didn't order desert." Amy eyed the strawberry, chocolate and cream stuffed crapes with delight.

Wolfgang smiled at her delight. "I know... my brother probably decided to make us desert anyway, something off the menu." 

Amy turned to him and frowned. "Your brother, you told me your mother died giving birth to you." 

Wolfgang nodded, "My older brother. When da died I took over the pack instead of my brother, I allowed him to follow his dream and his heart where da would not have. I gave him the loan for this place, his paid it back so he owns this place outright, permission to mate Tammy, there are all kinds of rules about inter-species breeding. But I'm happy he is happy."

Amy dug in to the crapes tasting brandy. She moaned in pleasure, stirring Wolfgang's blood. They finished their dinner and Wolfgang took care of the bill. Wolfgang considered calling his driver be he decided he wanted her to make the choice. "Choice, we stroll back to your place or drive." 

Amy smiled. "I think I should walk all that rich food." Amy commented.

Wolfgang chuckled and they walked out of the restaurant and down the almost empty street. Wolfgang slid his hand down her arm to slide his fingers between hers. Amy's skin tingled where his hand had touched her. They walked in silence. Wolfgang tensed as several men walked out of an alley. They continued to walk ignoring the men but the men weren't ignoring Amy. Gillian and two other pack members had been following discretely behind came forward and took the men out. 

"Amy how on earth did you manage to stay below our radar?" Wolfgang asked seriously.

Amy frowned. "I don't understand..."

Wolfgang sighed. "Every time a Were sees you they want to grab you. Hell every man to go near you wants to grab you." 

Amy seriously though about it, "Wait are you saying all the men and even the women who have jumped me over the last four years were Were."

Wolfgang shrugged, "Probably. More then likely judging by the reaction to you at the restaurant. The men and women couldn't keep their eyes off of you."

"Jealous." Amy asked.

Wolfgang smirked. "Do you want me to be?"

Amy frowned as she thought. She didn't know. They finally got to Amy's place. She owned the entire building but lived on the top floor and roof. Wolfgang walked in and escorted Amy up to her home. Wolfgang glanced around her home.

"Coffee?" She asked.

Wolfgang nodded. "Please." 

He followed her into the kitchen. Amy set the coffee up to seep. Wolfgang watched her. She organised a plate of biscuits as she waited for the coffee to seep. Wolfgang reached out and gathered her gently into his arms. "Amy... please... don't draw this out. Will you come back with me...?" Wolfgang waited knowing not to push.

Amy went to think about it but decided to trust her heart not her head in this matter. "I've already packed."

Wolfgang smiled and kissed her gently. Amy broke the kiss, "The coffee if I let it seep much longer it'll be too strong." She slid from his arms and poured the coffee out.

Wolfgang watched as she carried the tray into the lounge room. She set the tray down then sat on the couch, Wolfgang sat down next to her. He reached forward to stroke her neck, he lent in and kissed her neck snaking his tongue out to lick, her pulled her close and gently nibbled on her neck, she moaned which sent all the blood in his body to his loins. Wolfgang released her and shifted, he tugged on his pants to readjust his erection. 

Amy smiled a little embarrassed about how his body reacted to hers. "You get turned on too easily."

Wolfgang smirked he lent in and whispered in her ear. "I've been celibate for too long." Amy chuckled and offered him his coffee. 

"I can't help myself," Wolfgang continued. "Not with a gorgeous woman at my side. Who makes my wolf sing with joy and wants nothing more then make love to you and give you his kill." 

She blushed and sipped her coffee being careful not to scold her tongue. Wolfgang smiled pleased that his comment had the desired effect. He sipped his coffee. He watched as she rubbed her thighs together subtly, betraying her own aroused state.

Wolfgang put his coffee down and did the same for her, he gathered her into his arms. He ran his nose over her skin. He groaned and quivered, his body was demanding that he press her down and make love to her. He started to nibble on her ear, trying to control his wolf and his body. She quivered beneath him. He took a shaky breath. 


Kiss of the Moon Ch. 02



"God of the moon I want you." He groaned as he heard her heart rate race. He knew she wanted him as much as he wanted her.

"I want you to." Amy said almost in a whisper.

He gently laid her back on the couch. He groaned as his weight crushed her body to his. He used an arm to stop himself from hurting her under his weight. He kissed her deeply sliding his tongue deeply into her mouth, Amy's tongue slid against his. Wolfgang moaned, as he tasted her mouth, she was so sweet, like the hint of chocolate that had him wanting more. He knew from this moment on that he would crave her, their first kiss was nothing compared to the fire of this kiss. Wolfgang's free hand slid up to stroke her ribs and the underside of her breast. Amy pushed against him as her tongue bushed against sharpened teeth. He backed off; she gave him a frightened look. Wolfgang licked his teeth they had lengthened.

"I'm sorry..." He got off her. "I... I will leave." He went to leave.

"Wolfgang..." He turned to her surprised that she hadn't moved from where he had put her. "Can I see him?" Her tone meant she was serious.

Wolfgang watched her surprised. "You want to meet him." Amy nodded and pushed herself up into a seated position. 

"I will have to strip." Wolfgang informed her. 

Amy nodded again. Wolfgang stripped down; he watched Amy's eyes travel over his broad shoulders, down his powerful chest to his rock hard abs, her eyes travelled further down. His body shivered, it felt as if she had just caressed his manhood with her hands instead of her eyes. Amy blushed as her eyes focused on his arousal, it was so big, she had been flashed more then once, and she cannot remember seeing such a large penis except when one of her friends would send her an obviously fake picture in her E-mail.

Wolfgang could not hold onto his human form any longer. His body shifted, bones cracked and reformed, he dropped to his hands and knees but they were quickly turning into paws and legs. His face lengthened as his ears grew, finally hair started to sprout out all over his body. To Amy it felt like his change took forever when in fact it took only a moment.

Amy gasped, fear flashed for a moment in her eyes, he was massive but a fine example of wolf-ness. He was built with a powerful chest, long legs and sleek body. He was silver in colouration with a black underbelly, the tips of his ears were also black. Amy was surprised at his shear size, he was far bigger then any normal wolf, hell he was bigger then even the massive English Mastiff, he could easily rest his head on hers while seated. 

Wolfgang laid his ears back, put his tail between his legs and whined; he had not liked the fear in her eyes. Amy tapped her thighs inviting him to come forward. Wolfgang kept his ears back and his tail between his legs he did not know how she was going to react to him if he came close. She tapped her thighs again. 

"Come on..."

Wolfgang approached carefully, almost crawling towards her. He licked her and to prove he meant her no harm he stood and took her neck between his teeth. Amy tensed, Wolfgang waited for her to relax, when Amy realised he wasn't breaking skin or even applying pressure she relaxed. Wolfgang released her and licked her. He then rested his head in her lap.

He waited for her, waiting for her to move to do something that meant she was okay with this, she may have let him approach her, she may even have allowed him to take her neck between his teeth but that didn't mean she was okay with this. Amy was unsure; she had never been close to a dog or wolf before. She slid her hands up his neck to burrow his fingers into the long hair around his neck. Wolfgang closed his eyes as Amy's hands slid down his neck and to his shoulders then back up to scratch behind his ears. Wolfgang started to wag his tail pleased that he didn't repulse her. He licked her arm then shifted his head so she would scratch between his eyes. Amy slowly got confident that this massive wolf wasn't out to kill her, which in fact was the furthest thing from his mind.

She understood now that him taking her neck between his teeth was a way of showing her he would not hurt her. He could have easily have bitten through her neck, the fact he released her was evidence for her. Amy yawned the day was finally catching up with her. "Sorry Wolfgang, I'm going to shower and then to bed, you can hold me... or you can sleep on the couch it's up to you." Wolfgang stepped back to let her go. He watched where she went; he waited until he heard the shower.

Although she had invited him to her bed he knew it wasn't for sex, she wasn't ready for it. He quickly ate down the forgotten biscuits his hunger for something to eat was strong. He went into the kitchen found the rest of the biscuits and ate them. He sniffed around exploring her world, he was tempted to mark her home as his but he couldn't do that, this was her home. The shower shut off Wolfgang was exploring her open coatroom, searching for traces of any males in her life. There were many female scents, her brother's scent but no males that were unexplainable. All movement had stopped. He shifted back into human form. He pulled on his boxers and went to join her. He paused next to her bed. 

"Amy?" He asked making sure; he had permission to be here.

Amy held open the blankets. Wolfgang slid in and over to her. He pulled her into his arms to snuggle against her; he kissed her shoulder and gently ran his nose against her skin. He would never get tired of her smell.

*****

Amy woke and reached out for Wolfgang. He wasn't in the bed beside her. She rubbed her eyes and glanced at her clock, it was almost eight in the morning. She got up and walked into the kitchen. Wolfgang was making breakfast. 

"Hey... I was going to bring you breakfast in bed." He complained when he saw her up and about.

Amy smiled and sat on a stool and watched as Wolfgang slid a fluffy omelette onto her plate with a couple of breakfast sausages and two pieces of crispy bacon.

"I can't believe you can cook." Amy said. "I never saw you cook at the manor."

"Bastion doesn't let me, he believes I have enough on my plate without worrying about how I'm going to feed myself, but I had to learn to feed myself when I went to college. My omelette was famous amongst my fraternity brothers. " Wolfgang said as he sat across from Amy.

She ate slowly savouring the meal. Wolfgang ate silently. Amy sensed tension from him she swallowed. 

She decided to break the silence, "Wolfgang... about last night... I'm sorry I freaked... its one thing knowing that you can transform its quiet another to feel your teeth transform around my tongue."

Wolfgang smiled, so that was what had scared her, he knew she needed answers. "I'm sorry about that. Control can be difficult when both of us what to be with you." 

Amy frowned she didn't understand. "So... it wasn't you who took my neck between their teeth it was the wolf." 

Wolfgang put his fork down. "I... I... did I hurt you." 

Amy shook her head, "No... you didn't hurt me you were gentle." 

Wolfgang smiled, "There is a Human Wolfgang and a Wolf Wolfgang. Both of them want you, want to make love to you and more importantly want you to feel safe with them." 

Amy smiled she had already guessed that. "You were showing me you wouldn't hurt me." 

Wolfgang nodded, "The only way a wolf knows how." 

Amy slid the last of her breakfast into her mouth she swallowed, "So when do we leave?" She asked before sipping her coffee and waited for his answer.

Wolfgang smiled, "You still want to be with me." 

Amy nodded, "Of course. I know what you are, you've been honest about that from the start, I still want to try this, to be with you."

Wolfgang almost glowed with pleasure; she wanted to be with him. But he had to be sure. Wolfgang decided to ask her his most important question, "Enough to want to be with me forever."

Amy frowned. "But I'm human..." 

Wolfgang nodded, "Unless you want to be turned." 

"Turned?" Amy asked.

Wolfgang nodded. "I can turn you into a Were. If you want." 

Amy studied him, "How?"

Wolfgang rubbed the back of his neck. "First you would have to be my mate... in both forms." 

Amy blinked. "Wait... both forms, human and wolf." 

Wolfgang nodded. "Yes both forms."

Wild thoughts entered Amy's mind, how on earth did a wolf mate a human. 

"Amy..." Wolfgang took her hands as he went to reassure her. 

Amy looked at his hands and hers, her hands were small compared to his; hell forget about the massive wolf, how was she going to accept such a large man. "Amy... don't think about it. If it happens it happens, I will not turn you against your will. It is against the law. You can remain human; I'll protect you from the pack." 

Amy nodded, "I'm going to dress and finish packing." 

Wolfgang nodded and let her go about what she wanted to do. He called Gillian then tidied the kitchen putting out the trash and washed the dishes. He then scooped up his clothes and went to the guest bathroom. He returned dressed and Amy was waiting for him. She had packed three suitcases.

"All locked up." Wolfgang asked and Amy nodded her response. 

There was a knock on the door. Amy answered. Gillian took a deep breath, he hesitated wondering if he should bow or continue as normal.

Amy raised an eyebrow, "Not yet Gillian." 

Gillian smirked at Amy's response to his hesitation. "Amy..." he nodded walked in and grabbed two of the cases.

He left to take them down to one of the cars the pack had driven in. Wolfgang picked up the other. Amy locked the door and followed him down to the car. A man she didn't know held open a door for her. She got into the car and the door closed behind her. Wolfgang got in the drivers side and turned on the engine, the others piled into the other car. 

"Why aren't we sharing?" Amy asked.

Wolfgang smirked at Amy's question. "Right... like they're going to get in a car with two madly in love people who are filled with sexual tension they can feel, who to date haven't acted on that tension. Right."

Amy chuckled and turned to him, "What they think we'll pull over some where for a quickie?"

Wolfgang smirked at Amy's comment, "Quick, slow. It doesn't matter, they don't want to be around just encase I perceive them as a threat and attack them to keep them from you." 

Amy nodded, she was beginning to understand.

*****

Wolfgang's eyes snapped open he was awake but he didn't know what had woken him. Amy was curled up beside him. Wolfgang glanced down his body; the sheet was tented up. He wondered if he would ever be able to sleep next to her without getting hard. Okay granted it was three weeks since she had come back with him he had still not bedded her but that didn't mean that he had to be in a constant state of arousal around her. Amy mumbled and slid her arm around his waist. She had crawled into bed with him about two hours ago; Wolfgang groaned gently, she was so close to touching his straining manhood. Amy's hand splayed and slid along the waste band of his silk pyjama pants.

He turned and glared at her sleeping form. The tips of her finger slid beneath the elastic. Wolfgang tensed as her hand slid backwards and forwards sliding into his pants. Her fingers slid through his pubic hair and down to touch his manhood.

"Amy?" he gave her a shake to wake her.

Amy woke. "What?" She asked.

"Your hand..." he told her.

Amy glanced down, the tips of her fingers stroked his manhood. She jerked her hand back surprised that she was doing that and more importantly, that she was doing that in her sleep.

Wolfgang smirked, "So what were you dreaming about that hand your hand acting out?"

Amy blushed, what was she dreaming about that made her hand go down his pants.

"I can guess." He said softly and he kissed her deeply, Amy made a little whimpering noise in the back of her throat. He rolled her over pinning her beneath him. His tongue touched her lips; she opened her mouth to allow him entrance. Amy's tongue slid against his, Wolfgang moaned as her hands stroked his chest. His hand stroked up her body starting at the hem of her teddy and slowly going up gathering the material with it. Amy squirmed under his hand as his touch was feather light, inflaming her senses. He broke the kiss.

"I'll buy you a new one. But from onwards, naked please." he grabbed the flimsy material with both hands and tore the teddy in half exposing her chest but he didn't completely render the teddy in half. His eyes roamed over her body, his hands moved down and a second tear had her naked. He licked her, starting from her navel, up her body, her body quivered beneath him, his tongue travelled further up her body to her neck until his lips found hers. He kissed her deeply ravishing her lips. Amy felt her skin heat; her pulse became erratic.

Amy arched against his body, pressing her aching breasts against the hard plans of his chest, she moaned, she wanted more. One of Wolfgang's hands found her breast; he gently cupped her and squeezed causing her to groan again, her nipples hardened, bolts of pleasure shot through her body. Her legs wrapped around his. Wolfgang broke the kiss and swore wishing he were as naked as she was. He released her breast reached back and grabbed his silk pants, he tugged violently at the cloth until it gave way, he tossed it aside. He settled between her legs. His body pressed against hers, pressing her deeply into the mattress. Amy was lost, her body craved his touch, wanted more, her need for what ever he was going to do battled and won out against her fear that she had never done this before.

He didn't need to reach down and touch her to know she was drenched, he could smell her. He kissed and nibbled at her neck as one hand groped and pinched a breast his other hand kept him from crushing her beneath him. He got into position, he didn't know how much longer he could hold out, he opened his mouth and bit down hard on her shoulder drawing blood as he pushed his penis into her virgin womanhood.

Amy cried out in pain, she felt like she was being torn in two, her nails dug into Wolfgang's biceps. Wolfgang paused with only half his length within her he released her shoulder and kissed the hollow beneath her ear. 

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Wolfgang held still allowing her to adjust to his size. He could smell her blood, the blood of her broken hymen. Several tears escaped her eyes. Wolfgang licked her gently.

"It would have been pain either way, at least you weren't tense, that would have added to the pain. I can make it good. Let me try please."

Amy glanced up and nodded, she trusted him. Wolfgang groaned but he waited, allowing her to get used to him. He kissed her and she tasted her own blood. He slowly withdrew being as gentle as possible, he stopped when only the head of his penis was in then slowly slid forward. He kept going slowly; slowly sinking more of his maleness into her womanhood as he thrust.

He groaned as he came across her cervix. He pressed against her cervix. Amy groaned; she pushed against him she wanted more. But he kept going slow, slowly building the sweet friction, with each thrust pressing against her cervix seeking to fully entrench herself in her. Amy's hips rose to each of his thrusts, she made little noises whenever he varied his stroke or kissed her skin. He felt her cervix open to allow him in and he finally sunk his full length within her. Amy moaned, this was right, having him within her was right. He groaned and finally started to quicken his pace. Amy jerked her hips up with every thrust, matching his pace, wanting what he had to give her. Wolfgang buried his head into the nape of her neck.

Amy cried out as she climaxed. Wolfgang smirked and licked her jaw. He paused to allow her a chance to get her breath back, he could have just plundered through that climax and pushed her to another more intense one but as she was new to sex, he decided against that.

Amy sighed and squirmed as her body relaxed. She glanced up, "You're still hard." She asked.

Wolfgang smiled. "I haven't finished yet; I'm just giving you a chance to get your breath back." 

Amy shook her head, more, she didn't think she could handle more. "I don't think I can..." 

Wolfgang started to pump his body into hers again. Amy groaned as little after shocks burst in her body as he started his rhythm again. Within moments, she was moaning and pushing up for each thrust. Wolfgang groaned he wanted more leverage. Wolfgang stopped to Amy's dismay.

"Please..." she begged, she didn't want him to stop.

Wolfgang moved her legs, bending her in half resting the back of her thighs against his chest. Amy groaned as he started to pummel her body. Wolfgang felt Amy started to squeeze him, wanting what he had. He had to fight back the wolf who wanted to take over. Wolfgang growled at himself; he was not going to give up having Amy first. Wolfgang felt his body start to stiffen; he was close. Amy cried out and came again. Wolfgang could not hold back, he thrust forward one last time, he felt his seed surge up and explode into her body, to bathe her womb with his essence. He groaned as his body surged a second time spewing more of his seed into her and even to his surprise he surged a third time. He panted and nearly collapsed.

He slid Amy's legs back into a more natural position he rested his weight on her. Amy was panting trying to get her breath back. Her hands were on his back and felt the first of Wolfgang's changes. 

"Wolfgang?"

Wolfgang pulled away and tried to gain back control but the wolf side of him was having none of that. He slid into his wolf form. Amy considered making a dash for the bathroom, she wasn't ready to take on the wolf yet but she knew running would trigger a predator response.

"No... I'm not ready for that." She told him.

Wolfgang whined but Amy pulled the blanket up hoping that removing temptation would protect her. He grabbed the blanket between his teeth and gave it a tug pulling it free. He crept forward and licked her thighs, he didn't want to mate her, she wasn't ready yet, but he was going to taste her, nothing was going to stop him. Amy went to stop him, she went pale at his warning growl, what did he want from her. He finally got to the point of his desire. He gently lapped at her tasting blood, her essence and his. Amy watched as he licked at her womanhood, reaching in to scoop out their combined juices, his nose bumped against her clitoris.

Amy moaned she couldn't help herself; her body was already sensitive after her previous encounter with Wolfgang. His tongue was large and slightly rough, producing a beautiful kind of friction, it was too good to fight so she just relaxed and let him have his way with her as long as he didn't try to mount her.

His strokes were long and controlled. His tongue delved deeply into her to taste, feel, and taste her. He withdrew his tongue to lap at her clitoris. His tongue disappeared and his teeth nibbled ever so gently on her clitoris.

She started to pant; her body was tingling. She reached down to touch Wolfgang's head. He growled a warning but she did not push him away, she pulled him tighter, wanting more. Her hips were moving, she moaned. Her body quaked, she cried out as her body shuddered in another climax. Wolfgang stepped back when she released him. He grabbed the blanket and pulled it up over her, he looked her over checking to make sure she was covered. He then lay down next to her. Amy rolled onto her side and wrapped an arm around him rubbing her face against his neck as she drifted to sleep.

*****

Bastion walked in to wake his king. He tilted his head and sniffed the air as he studied what he saw. He smelt sex. Wolfgang opened his eyes, sometime during the night Wolfgang had changed back into human form, his wolf for the moment was sated. He would be content for sometime just burying his nose between her legs and tasting her, to him she was the yummiest thing after fresh meat.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 02



Breakfast in bed it is. Bastion left the room. 

Wolfgang smirked; he rolled over and kissed her to rouse her. Amy moaned and opened her eyes, when she focused on him she blushed. His hand stroked down her body.

"Wolfgang... last night..." Amy started.

He nodded and waited. "Yes last night... we made love." He lent in to kiss her.

Amy shook her head that was not what she wanted to talk about, "Yes but... after you changed... I couldn't stop you from... you went down on me." 

Wolfgang smiled and nodded. "Yes and..." He prompted.

"I... I liked it... is that wrong." She bit her lip and her eyes wouldn't meet his as she talked.

Wolfgang chuckled and tilted her face back to his. "No it's not wrong; in fact I'm happy that you can accept both aspects of my nature. The more comfortable you get with my other self the less afraid you'll be if you chose to be turned." 

She snorted, she was tender in places she didn't know could be tender. "Right... even I know that the bigger the dog the bigger the dick." She moved and winced. "It felt like you were tearing me in two last night."

Bastion walked in with their breakfast, Amy pressed her face against Wolfgang's chest in embarrassment as she wasn't sure how much he had overheard.

"Morning my King and queen," Bastion said as he had seen the bite mark against her neck that alone meant she was queen. He set the breakfast up, he had not restrained himself; strawberry filled crapes, champagne, fruit salad. 

Wolfgang pulled a face as he looked at the food on offer. "Why don't I always get the royal treatment?" Wolfgang asked as he glared at his manservant.

Bastion gave him a glare, "You will not fill the house with pups." Bastion left the room. 

Amy turned to Wolfgang. "Pups..." she said as she went move but she went pale, she remembered feeling him surge, she felt his seed fly deep into her womb. "Shit... we didn't... I could be..." Amy said starting to panic. She wasn't ready to be a mother.

Wolfgang smirked but shook his head. "No... wrong time of your cycle Amy. You're safe... for the moment." He said before he nibbled at her ear.

"You can..." Amy went to ask.

"Smell... I know exactly when your in heat, when the perfect time is to mingle our bodies to produce pups." He said then captured her lips with his and kissed her deeply. He offered her a strawberry once he broke the kiss. He rubbed a strawberry against her lips, every time she went to bite it he drew it away. She grabbed his hand and bit down. 

"I wont get you pregnant unless you want to be." He told her as he lent in and kissed her.

She broke the kiss, "Bastion has high hopes for me." Amy said hoping for an explanation.

Wolfgang smirked, "My mother only had my brother and me. She died giving birth to me. My father refused to take another mate. A pack's strength is measured in their Alphas and their young, the more children the more prosperous, more so if they belong to the Alpha pair."

"So children are the measure of a packs wealth." Amy asked.

Wolfgang nodded. "In the prides, they measure their wealth in their daughters; they have a higher male to female ratio. In the packs it doesn't matter, children are children, we value our children, cherish them, they are the future hunters." 

Amy nodded. She pulled the sheet up and sat forward to eat. Wolfgang picked at the breakfast but he was far more interested in having his way with her body. He slid a hand between her legs and slid slowly to the junction of her thighs, her muscles tensed but he lent in and licked her neck, he sucked on the skin giving her a love bite. 

Amy squirmed away as the bristles of his bread scratched against her skin raising a rash. "Get off, you're all scratchy..." she complained.

Wolfgang chuckled. "Give me five and I'll be scruff free." He hopped out of the bed and raced over to the bathroom to shave. Amy ate and savoured her breakfast. Wolfgang checked his face making sure there was not so much as a stray bristle on his face. He walked back in and sat next to her. He watched her eat.

"Aren't you hungry?" Amy asked.

Wolfgang smirked at Amy's question. "Oh I'm hungry Amy... but not for anything on that tray and Bastion knows it, he made the tray for you, to build your strength." 

He lent in and kissed her. Amy mumbled. Wolfgang moved the tray. He pulled Amy beneath him. He pressed his lips on to her neck; he opened his mouth and gently bit down. Amy groaned. Wolfgang cupped her hips and released her neck. Wolfgang moved, kneeling above her, he looped an arm around and under her hips, arching her back leaving her shoulders as the only thing to be in contact with the bed. He growled as he studied her beneath him, he liked the way she watched him, how her eyes feasted on his body.

He lent down and licked her, starting at the beginning of her pubic hairs, up to her naval, which he circled with his tongue. He continued his upward journey. Amy's legs locked around his waste. Wolf shifted kneeling beneath her to support her weight. His hands stroked her rib cage, up to her breasts that he cupped, last night they had just followed their instincts, today he wanted to teach her about sex. He licked a nipple and then sucked it into his mouth.

Amy moaned and started to bounce on his thighs, rubbing against his erection, she wanted... needed more. Wolfgang groaned he tore his mouth from her breast. "Amy... cut it or I'll just take you like I did last night."

Amy threw her arms up offering her body to him, "Please." 

Wolfgang growled, if that's what she wanted he would gladly give it her.

Chapter 3

Nathanael groaned as his beeper went off. He sat up in bed and grabbed his beeper. He cursed the fact that besides the fact he was the packs head doctor he also worked for the state as a coroner. He blinked to focus his eyes. He groaned in reluctance; he was wanted on scene. His wife mumbled and rolled over. Nathanael got out of bed and got dressed. His assistant would meet him with the all-important coffee.

He opened his phone and quick dialled the sheriff. "Where do you want me?" he said as he pulled his shoes on and scribbled with his other hand the address. "I can be there in twenty minutes." he hung up his phone, grabbed his keys and his coat. He checked to make sure he had his ID. He left his wife to sleep knowing he would be back before she woke.

He got into his car and drove to the scene. His assistant was waiting for him as he flashed his ID to the officer keeping people from ducking under the tape. He was waved pass the police tape keeping people from getting too close to the scene. He got out and went around to the back of his SUV; he opened the back and pulled on his overalls to keep himself from contaminating the scene. He pulled disposable shoe covers on then rubber gloves. He grabbed his medical bag as his assistant walked forward carrying a camera and a coffee. Nathanael gulped the coffee down. He took a deep breath, blood, death and the faint scent of male arousal found his nose.

They walked over to where the police were gathered. The acrid scent of drying blood and bodily functions assaulted his nose. Nathanael started to take shallow breaths until his sensitive nose adjusted to the overpowering smells. The police stepped aside to let Nathanael approach, Nathanael paused; there was a large pool of blood. Nathanael pulled out his recorder. "Appears that the victim bled to death." he picked a path to approach the body without stepping in the pool of drying blood. He checked where he was putting his bag to make sure he wasn't going to contaminate anything. He then carefully lifted the blanket covering the woman's body.

Nathanael heard rather then saw his assistant turn and run to get away to throw up. Nathanael was cold as his eyes scanned the victim. Her throat was torn open, deeply to the point of being the most probable cause of death as the arterial veins had been severed. His eyes scanned down; her chest was torn open to the bone, her stomach had been torn out with her entrails having been partially eaten. Nathanael closed his eyes, he knew that a Were had done this. Not even the cruellest of humans could do this kind of damage. He turned his recorder back on.

"Victim is an I-C-1 female approximately twenty one years old. The victim is apparently naked with lacerations to the face, neck, chest, arms legs…" Nathanael carefully rolled her over to check her back. "And back, bruises grazes." He lifted her hand to examine her fingers, "Victim appears to have defensive wounds on her forearms and skin under her nails." Nathanael kept listing his observations on the condition of the body. He knew Wolfgang would not be pleased about this, not if it were one of theirs who had killed this woman. He would be positively pissed if it were a rogue wolf on his territory that had not been picked up sooner.

He went to take her liver temperature only to realise the liver had been taken. He stood and walked over to his assistant. "Are you good?" He asked. His assistant nodded.

Nathanael smiled. "I know it isn't pretty but I need a full spread." Nathanael told him.

He nodded took a deep breath and went to take the photos.

The Sheriff and the Police chief stood next to each other. Sheriff Jenkins stood with his hands in his pockets. "So… does it look like one of the Were attacked her." Jenkins asked. Both Jenkins and Watterson knew Nathanael was pack, more often then not they turned to the pack to help track people down. 

Nathanael nodded,"I'm afraid so. I don't recognise the scent so it could be a rogue, then again I don't know the individual scents of each pack member."

"So will you pass it onto your pack leader?" Police chief Watterson asked.

Nathanael nodded. "Yes, I have no choice, Wolfgang is the only one who can do anything, can organise a hunt. All appropriate paper work will be handled." 

The two men nodded. "Just do it quickly." Jenkins commented. "We don't want a lynching mob to get it into their heads to take on a Were."

"I'll inform him now." Nathanael started to say as his phone started to ring. Nathanael picked up. "Nathanael speaking…" He answered.

"Doc." A deep male voice spoke into his ear.

Nathanael frowned, why was the caretaker of Haven calling him. "Yes Drifter what can I do for you?" Nathanael asked hoping it wasn't something that would keep him from his bed tonight.

"I need you at haven…" Nathanael could hear a fight in the background and breaking glass. "Like now." Drifter finished.

"What's wrong?" Nathanael asked calmly.

"A woman presented to haven, fresh attack marks… I'll explain once you get her and knock her out she's going mental." Drifter hung up.

Nathanael frowned, not coincidence, two attacks, one night. "Forgive me gentlemen, pack matter." Nathanael said in way of an explanation as to the interruption. Nathanael turned to his assistant who had just walked over from taking the scene photos for Nathanael's report. "I need you to bag and tag her, take her back and log her in, I will do the autopsy tomorrow lunch time." he turned to the police chief and sheriff who nodded that was acceptable.

Nathanael grabbed his things. He dumped it in his car stripped out of the protective clothing and logging it just in case he had picked up any trace on his shoes or gloves. He got in the car and drove off. It took him an hour to drive to haven. All the while, his mind was ticking, two attacks, one survivor, both women. It was instinctual for an attack victim to head straight for haven going back to the days when they lived as animals and humans were few. Each pack created a safe place for those people to come to terms with their new life, a true haven where they were protected and the world was protected from them until they were able to control themselves.

He pulled over outside the massive building, Haven was also the place the pack used for members who need around the clock care. He grabbed his medical bag and walked into the foyer of Haven. He glanced around at the destruction and decided to follow it. Four men were struggling with a woman, they were trying to be careful as to not add to her wounds but she was attacking them. Nathanael knelt and pulled out a syringe and a sedative, not one that would knock her out but one that would help her calm down and loose control of her muscles.

Drifter noticed Nathanael. "We are trying to help you." He told her but she kept on fighting. They piled on top of her to hold her down while Nathanael injected her. Nathanael stabbed the needle into her exposed thigh and emptied the syringe. They held her down until the drug took effect. They picked her up and walked her into a bathroom.

They stripped her of her clothes and cleaned her, getting rid of dirt and blood from her body. Once they were sure she was clean they dried her, then they carried her into a treatment room. Nathanael tended to her wounds, she watched unable to move or stop them. Nathanael decided to speak to fill the void. "We are not out to hurt you, we just want to help you." He stitched together several of her wounds. "Please try not to tear these open, you won't heal if you do." he grabbed another syringe.

"Now, I'm going to give you a couple of shots, one is for tetanus, another is for rabies the other is just a broad spectrum antibiotic. We don't want you getting sick." Nathanael informed her; he showed her the labels so she could read them for herself. He quickly gave her the shots. He then bandaged her up and dressed her in pyjamas.

"I'm Nathanael by the way. We are going to move you to a room now and the sedative should wear off soon okay." She was carefully moved to a padded room. They gently laid her down.

Drifter knelt. "This room is for your protection from now onwards no one will approach you unless you invite them that includes coming into your room. If you need to use the bathroom call out we will press a button that will open a door." He pointed out the door. "There is only a toilet and basin, you can't shower until the doc removes your stitches but if you want hot water for a sponge bath ask we will give it to you, if you get hungry ask." He put down some food and water.

"When your done just put them through the main door." He informed her then left leaving her alone so she could calm down.

Nathanael was waiting. "I have to tell Wolfgang."

Drifter nodded, "Better you then me, we'll keep her contained I don't think she'll adjust…"

Nathanael snorted. "Right the moment Amy knows of her she'll be here to try to make things better." 

Drifter chuckled, he hasn't met Amy yet but rumours said she was small feisty bundle. "It would be a shame to loose her. If Amy can help that is good." Nathanael nodded agreeing with him.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 03



"Yes." Amy turned her head back to watch him wondering where this was going.

"Will you let me turn you?" Wolfgang waited for Amy's answer. 

Amy stretched her fingers as she thought. She knew what it would take to turn her that she would have to mate to his wolf form, his massive wolf form, in order for him to turn her. She wanted to be with him. "Yes." 

Wolfgang smiled pleased. "Will you let me do it now?" 

Amy shivered; she was tied up. Some could say she was cohered into saying yes. "Will you untie me?" 

Wolfgang reached forward and loosened the binding letting her go. Amy flexed her wrists. She took several deep breaths, if she was going to do this she wanted to be restrained, but this time she would be willingly tied up. Amy put her hands back. "Okay tie me back up." She told him.

Wolfgang did as she asked wondering what was going through her head. He gently stroked some skin. 

"You better make sure your gentle." She informed him giving him leave to turn her.

Wolfgang felt his control slip. His body started to shift; his board shorts tore and fell off. Amy closed her eyes waiting for the final snaps to finish. A long tongue snaked out to lick her back. He gently nibbled at her spine as he lined up to take her. Amy turned her heard to the mirror to watch their reflection. Wolfgang gently growled and redirected her head in a different direction.

Amy felt his penis poke her awfully close to her anus. "Move further down or I'll say stop."

Wolfgang lowered his body and started to find his mark. It only took him a couple of tries before he finally found the yielding flesh that was her womanhood. He pressed forward slowly, slowly in and out. 

"Stop," Wolfgang paused obeying Amy's command. "Help me get on top of the draws." Wolfgang dismounted and used his head to push her hips up until she could slide forward and brace herself on her knees. Wolfgang went and got her two pillows from the bed for beneath her knees. Amy smiled and got into position. Wolfgang mounted; he found it much easier to find his mark this way. His forelegs wrapped around her hips and pulled her to his raging manhood. He worked slowly, slowly easing his length into her, as he didn't want to hurt her. He came across her cervix but it opened to allow him in.

He knew his knot was beginning to form; he wanted to lodge it within her before it got to its full size it would mean less pain for her. He slid into her womb and one last thrust had the knot in. He held still as he started to swell. Every now and again, he would jerk his hips forward making sure he was lodged within her and unlikely to disengage. Amy gasped, she felt as if she was being stretched wide open; it was both pain and intense pleasure. She moaned and started to thrust herself on his manhood. Wolfgang started to thrust, he started slowly but sped his thrusts up safe in the knowledge that she was firmly attached to him and that he wouldn't be able to pull out without tearing her womanhood in half.

Amy's jaw dropped, each time he moved his knot would rub against her G-spot. His hips sped up as his nature took over, he wanted to plant his seed; wanted to feel her contract around him and milk him. He wanted what she had only allowed his human half, to climax around his maleness. Wolfgang opened his mouth and wrapped his jaws around her left shoulder. Amy felt an orgasm approach, she started to moan and groan as his knot rubbed against places only his hand had ever touched. "Ah…" She climaxed, Wolfgang growled and sunk his teeth into her skin drawing blood. Wolfgang kept thrusting through her climax, he had to make her climax another two times before he could finally let fly in his own moment of bliss.

He released her shoulder and moved his teeth to her right shoulder. Amy made noses as he thrust calling out to him making him loose control. He felt her getting ready to climax again. "Wolf… Ah…" her body tensed and she climaxed again, he bit down again breaking her skin. She gasped and shook, each shudder of her body seemed to intensify the pleasure coursing through her body.

Amy didn't think she could handle much more. "Wolfgang…" Wolfgang kept thrusting picking up his speed until his motion was a blur; he released her right shoulder and wrapped his mouth carefully around her neck. Amy didn't know if she liked this at all, it was one thing for him to have his jaws sink into her shoulder, she was used to Wolfgang biting her shoulder and neck during sex but having the huge jaws of a wolf around the back of her neck.

"Not my neck." She told him.

Wolfgang ignored her, he just kept on thrusting; he was getting dangerously close to his limit. Amy's blood filled his nose and coated his tongue. Amy groaned. "Wolfgang please... no more." She asked as she felt another climax building. Her whole body started to quake, getting ready for the climax to come. She shook her head and tried to free her neck. Wolfgang growled and tightened his grip slightly. Amy's body convulsed, she almost screamed in release as her womanhood clamped down on his manhood. Wolfgang pressed forward and bit down as he felt his climax explode into her. He grunted as streams of his seed shot deeply into her womb, he thrust a few more times trying to make the moment last as he emptied himself within her. The liquid heat seared as it travelled into Amy's body filling her womb, her body convulsed again as the shear amount of his seed filled her to the point of bursting but had nowhere to go as his manhood and knot had swollen even more to keep his seed trapped there. He released her neck and licked at her wounds.

He panted; he lent forward and bit the belt snapping it. He slid his forepaws up and wrapped his jaws around her right shoulder. He backed up and hopped carrying her to their bed. He carefully laid her down. Amy crawled forward with him. He lay down on top of her. Amy was asleep in moments.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 03



"What's all this?" Becky asked.

Amy smiled, as she could smell vanilla in the water. "Well, when I was hurt I loved having sponge baths." Amy put the basin on the toilet and helped Becky out of her pyjamas. Amy then carefully removed the bandages. Amy then rung out the sponge and started to clean Becky being careful of the wounds.

Are you enjoying yourself? Amy asked Wolfgang. "Don't scratch." Amy told her off gently. "I know they're itchy but scratching will get you in trouble with Nathanael." Becky took a towel and patted herself dry when Amy was done.

Becky snorted. "You sound like you've born the brunt of his anger."

Amy chuckled. "You think you look bad." Amy stepped back and took her blouse off; she turned her back lifting her hair to expose bite marks.

"What happened to your back?" Becky asked.

"An accident." Amy replied.

Amy smirked and started to wrap her wounds then helped her dress. Becky did indeed feel better now she was clean in fresh clothes. "Told you didn't I." Becky nodded. Amy put everything dirty into the basin and sat it in the yellow zone. Becky handed Amy her blouse. Amy pulled it on and buttoned it up.

They sat with their backs against the wall. Amy pulled her phone out and offered it to Becky. "Here, call your family or whoever you need to tell them you are safe." Becky took the phone casting a weary glance.

"Why are you doing all this?" She asked. 

"Because it is the right thing to do." Amy answered. Becky had no one except her landlord to call to watch her plants her mother having died the year before and her father being some unknown man who had never been in her life.

"There is only my landlord. I'm between jobs at the moment."

"If you want the pack can go and pack your things up put them in storage to save you having to pay rent or if you don't want that the pack can take care of your rent and such." Amy said trying to be helpful.

Becky tensed. "And what do they want for this help."

"Nothing. All we want is to catch the arsehole that did this to you. It's forbidden." Amy said trying to make her understand that Amy wasn't out to hurt her.

"Arseholes… I think there were at least ten." Becky said startling Amy.

Stay out. She told Wolfgang. "Becky, everyone is not like those who attacked you." Wolfgang walked in and sat to listen. Becky tensed. Amy turned to Wolfgang. "Get out." She told him. Wolfgang stood and growled at her. "OUT." She yelled at him. She got to her feet and followed Wolfgang out.

She hit him. "Great now I have to start again you idiot."

"Amy… more then one, do you realise how much danger you're in when you go near her and she starts to loose control, she'll kill you." Wolfgang argued.

"She wasn't loosing control Wolfgang…" Amy retorted.

"How do you know your not were yet." Wolfgang growled.

"Stop being a domineering ass." Amy said as she hit his chest.

"You are human, she's going through a forced change she could tear you to shreds. One bout of anger and she could shift. You wouldn't stand a chance against her." He informed her as if she didn't already know.

"Just because you're my mate and you may be Alpha doesn't give you a pass to tell me what to do." Amy said starting to get mad.

"I am Alpha." Wolfgang said.

"I am your mate, your equal. If you want to find out about the people doing these attacks then we need her on side." Amy glared at him. She walked back into the room and slammed the door in Wolfgang's face.

Amy rubbed her face. "Men are arses."

Becky was watching her surprised. "Your not were?" Becky asked.

Amy shook her head.

"But you're mated to one?" Becky concluded trying to figure this out.

Amy nodded.

"And every time you come in here you're risking your own safety just to help me." Becky asked.

Amy nodded again. 

Becky realised she had made some serious mistakes when it came to the pack. "You're the Alpha's mate." Becky asked for confirmation.

Amy nodded. "I'm in the process of being turned, but unlike you my change will be gradual not sudden and violent like your change. I won't be able to shift for at least a month, you can shift now."

Becky frowned as she watched Amy sit in the little yellow square. "What are you doing?" Becky asked.

Amy smirked. "Technically I broke a few rules by entering your room without your permission. Any way just because permission is given once doesn't mean it's a free pass to your room."

Becky snorted and gestured Amy in. Amy got up and walked into the room. She sat in front of her. "I'm Becky." Becky said finally introducing herself.

Amy smiled. "Hello Becky. So do you have any questions? If I can't answer them I can siphon the information from Wolfgang." Amy asked.

"You can reach into his mind?" Becky asked.

Amy nodded. "The bond of the mates, all were a telepathic, it's how they communicate when they're in their Were form, but when you're mated the bond goes deeper then just communication. I know what's going through his mind; I can see through his eyes, use his senses as he can use mine. The sex is intense without the mated bond but now…" Amy shook her head it was hard to explain. "You'll only understand if you find your mate."

"My mate?" Becky asked.

Amy smiled. "The belief that there is one perfect person for everyone is a Were belief. I was attracted to Wolfgang the moment I saw him; the feeling was mutual. He accidentally scared me once before we became mates, his control slipped and his teeth shifted. Scared me badly, my tongue felt his teeth shift."

Becky nodded she could understand that. "And?" She prompted.

"And although scared I still craved his touch, his kiss, I wanted him in ways that were positively indecent. Still do." Amy said with a smile and an inward look.

"Let me guess his thoughts echo yours." Becky said teasingly.

Amy blushed. "He's are more indecent then mine. There are things he wants to do that don't have names."

Becky cracked up laughing then stopped. "You need my help?" She stated.

Amy nodded. "We need you to tell us what happened and most importantly, do you remember the other woman to come in here." 

Becky nodded. "I wasn't very nice to her." Becky explained.

Amy shrugged; "She understood and forgave you, but she has to sit in, see each were has a special ability, Sienna, that's her name, can see mental pictures, she will be able to see your attackers. She can then hand that straight over to Drifter who can draw them." Sienna walked in and sat in the yellow square.

"Do you know her?" Becky asked.

Amy nodded. "Sienna is Gillian's mate, Gillian is Wolfgang's second. We live in the same house and eat together; I think you'll like her." Amy supplied.

Becky gestured Sienna to come in. Sienna smiled and crawled over not bothering to get up. She laid down near Becky in a relaxed pose.

"Hello Becky I'm Sienna." Sienna said gently.

"Will this hurt?" Becky asked.

Sienna shook her head. "Memories although distressing and cause emotional pain wont hurt you in anyway." Sienna said trying to comfort her.

Becky nodded; she took a deep breath and started to tell her story. "We were at a party, Jason, Laura's boyfriend had driven us there but the tosser got himself drunk. So I said we should walk home I mean it was only a couple of minutes and we live in same building so we walked. We did everything right, we stayed away from the park and walked near the road so no one could grab us. Then these men came. We ignored them. We were almost home when they grabbed us and threw us into a van." Becky tensed. Sienna sat up sensing that Becky was beginning to get angry.

"Calm down Becky." Sienna told her. 

Becky took several deep breaths and forced the anger and the wolf within down. "We tried to fight." Becky continued, "But they were too strong. They took us to some scrubland, had a fight, I guess the leader of the group pointed at me. He started to shift I was let go and I ran. He came after, me. I found a metal pipe and used it as a weapon. I hit him hard, he went down, I ran again, I heard Laura screaming but I didn't go to her."

Sienna felt Becky's control slip. "Calm down." Sienna said sternly, she could sense the rage bubbling trying to get out of control. "Calm down or Amy leaves the room." Sienna threatened. Becky took deep breaths to calm herself down, she didn't want to hurt anyone. "Remember you can hurt Amy if you do not focus and control your emotions." Sienna reminded her.

Becky nodded. "The man I hit tackled me down, tore me up but I managed to deck him again. I ran, I don't remember why I came here or how I knew to come here." 

Amy turned to Sienna. "Did you get all you need?"

Sienna shook her head.

Amy sighed. "We'll try again later. Becky what would you like for lunch?"

"I would like out of this room for a little while?" Becky said seeing if she was a prisoner in this room.

Out of the question. Wolfgang told Sienna and Amy.

"Come on." Amy said ignoring him.

Sienna shot her a look. "He's going to take it out on your hide you know that." 

Amy smiled. "No, he'll take it out on me during sex but I have my own ways to make him behave." 

Sienna chuckled. They opened the door and walked Becky out. Wolfgang was glowering at Amy. Becky felt like retreating to her room so Amy wouldn't get in trouble. Amy grabbed her arm before she could retreat and met Wolfgang's gaze with defiance.

"Sienna take Becky to the mess hall we'll meet you there." Wolfgang said his voice dripped with anger.

Sienna grabbed Becky and nearly ran down the hall. The others had vanished. Wolfgang grabbed Amy and pressed her against the wall.

"I don't know whether I should beat you or fuck you at the moment. Stop breaking the fucking rules." He told her.

"Maybe the rules should be changed. She doesn't trust us, showing her she's not a prisoner in that room is important for her to trust us. Or do you want her to kill herself the moment she is released from here and gets amongst the pack. You know what will happen, every single man will come to investigate her she'll freak. The rules work for men but not for women." Amy tried to slide free. 

Wolfgang kept her pinned to the wall. "No… I'm not finished." He growled, he was panting. Amy frowned wondering what he wanted. "I normally don't accept disobedience Amy, not in front of others."

"I don't count I'm your mate remember, your queen and equal, I'm meant to stand up to you. You're just so used to getting your way or people cowering." Amy surmised.

"Amy I'm trying to protect you." Wolfgang told her.

"I don't need your protection, you know what… I'm going to back to my place. Think about what you want Wolfgang because if you want me you are going to have to get used to this." Amy went to slid free.

"No." Wolfgang stopped her and kissed her deeply. He broke the kiss. "I'll put up with it; yes I'm not used to it. But I'll put up with it." He told her.

"And I'll try to keep our disagreements mental." Amy conceded. Wolfgang smiled he released her and they went mess hall. Amy got her lunch and joined Becky and Sienna. Wolfgang joined them. Becky went to move.

"Becky this is Wolfgang and although he appears big and menacing he's really a big softy." Amy said. Wolfgang put his fork down and turned to Amy.

"What… it's the truth?" Amy said. "At least I think it's the truth."

"Yeah his only soft and cuddly for you." Sienna remarked. 

Wolfgang stood. "I don't have to listen to this." He said as he stood and took his lunch with him. 

Sienna turned to Amy. "How did you cool him off?" Sienna asked amazed.

Amy smiled. "Threatened to leave him." Amy replied.

Sienna smirked. "For a human female you have some balls." Sienna said in admiration. Amy shrugged. "No I mean it; I heard once that an Alpha's mate went to leave him. He locked her in a cage for the rest of her life, if he couldn't have her no one could."

"Must have been an arsehole." Amy said as she ate.

Sienna snorted. Becky ate as she tried to ignore the attention of the men sitting at the other table. Wolfgang growled and the men stopped looking at her. Wolfgang turned and nodded to her, Becky smiled her relief. She turned to Amy. "Why did he do that?" She asked.

Amy smiled. "While you are at haven, while you are living in his territory he classes you as pack and therefore you are under his protection. He will ensure the single men of our pack will leave you be." She answered.

"I'm gay." Becky told them.

Sienna slapped her face. "Great now we'll have the women to fight off and they can be narky. At least with men you can tell them to fuck off. Women are sneaky. You can't just tell them to bugger off." Sienna told her. Sienna smiled. "I have an older sister…"

Amy hit her, "She will find her own mate." Amy turned to the men in the room. "She is gay," she informed them. Becky could hear their sighs of disappointment. "You have to understand Becky, everyone is looking for their soul mate, looking for that one soul which will make their life complete, will compliment their beast. Your mate could be one of any of the Were races, the Folk, the elementals, the Nefilim and the Ancients."

"So any of these races could house my mate?" Becky asked. 

They both nodded. "Yes." Sienna said. "There are however other races we may befriend but never mate. Vampires and Centaurs." Sienna told her.

"Wait Centaurs are real?" Becky asked.

Amy and Sienna nodded. "They are rare, because of their rareness we don't mix sexually." Amy told her.

"And Vampires?" Becky asked.

Sienna snorted. "Aren't considered because technically they are dead, they don't breed."





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 03



Amy and Sienna chuckled. 

"You said you would answer some questions?" Becky asked a few minutes later.

Amy and Sienna nodded, they waited for Becky to ask her questions.

"Why was I compelled to come here?" Becky asked.

"To prevent and to contain…" Sienna said simply.

Amy glared at Sienna then turned to Becky to explain. "You must understand Becky, what happened to you is forbidden, has been for a very long time. But on the off chance that there was a forced turning a spell was cast on the Were races by the old ones. The ones who made the were races, those who the change is forced upon will feel drawn to a place within the nearest pack that the pack has chosen and calls Haven. Haven for those who come here afraid, confused and alone. Haven… this is the place where you will learn about your new people, your new life, and your new powers. I have support I have no need to be here, but you don't… here you will have the support you need."

"To prevent and contain…" Becky said seeking an explanation.

Amy sighed. "Before the spell was cast those who were turned against their will were left to deal with it. In a fit of rage, they would kill unable to prevent it. If they survived the backlash, they would take their own lives in remorse for the life or lives they took. To keep the humans from choosing to wipe us out the spell was cast, since we created the problem it became our duty to right the wrong. Turning a human against their will became forbidden, the ones who attacked you will be killed for their crime."

Becky frowned. "What if the turning was an accident in defence?" She asked.

Sienna turned to Amy interested in the answer to that question. 

Amy took a deep breath. "If it is proven that the Were in question acted in defence then it would become the responsibility of the Were in question to do right by the one they wronged. They would fall under the Were's protection." Amy answered.

Becky nodded. "What happens when I am allowed to leave haven?"

Sienna smiled. "You join the pack or you can join another pack, you can choose to work for the pack or for the state or anything, nothing is limited, you are free to do what you want."

Becky smiled. "I think the first thing I want to do is go to a forest for a run."

Amy and Sienna smiled they could both agree with that sentiment.

Wolfgang walked up to Becky's door two days later, it had taken time to convince the feds that they had control of the situation. He knocked and popped his head in, Amy, Sienna and Becky were all asleep on the couch, they were piled on top of each other and to his amusement they were all clothed. Amy's eyes snapped open, her nose had caught his scent. She smiled at Wolfgang.

"How did it go?" she asked him waking the others.

Wolfgang smiled. "They have given us some breathing room," he told them.

Becky frowned, "Breathing room what have I missed?" she asked as she gestured Wolfgang in. Wolfgang sat in a big armchair, he opened his arms wanting to have Amy fill them. Amy got up and flopped into his arms.

Wolfgang took a deep breath then turned to Becky, "The feds were called in; three more bodies were found and one was a twelve year old girl. They were claiming it was the work of a serial killer, I had to convince them it was a Were matter. We have a little room but we have to track these men down now." 

Gillian burst in ignoring the rules of Haven, "Wolfgang, news came in that there was an attack in broad daylight, twelve are dead." 

Nathanael brushed Gillian aside, "Wolfgang, I've found sixteen more bodies, in three different territories." Nathanael waited for his reaction.

Wolfgang shifted and dug into his pocket. He pulled out his phone. He dialled, "Shia, I'm organising a meeting of the Alpha's I need your help," he said bluntly.

"When?" Shia asked.

"Tomorrow at my manor," Wolfgang told him.

"Okay I'll do a call around, I'll take every other name," Shia told him.

"Thanks Shia," Wolfgang went to hang up.

"This is about the deaths on your land," Shia asked before he could hang up.

"And in three other territories, we have a survivor, it's a pack of rogues Shia," Wolfgang explained.

"I'll get right to it," he told Wolfgang and hung up.

Amy turned to Becky to explain, "The moment one or more packs are involved it's wise to alert the Alpha's, when the feds are chomping at the bit and some conservative senator is trying to tighten the laws on Were's then it becomes a meeting because it effects us all," Amy told her. 

Becky glared at her, wondering how Amy always had the answers. "Did you just pick that from his mind?" Becky asked. Amy shook her head. Becky frowned, "Then how do you know that? You were born human, you didn't grow up Were," Becky demanded to know.

Amy smiled and sat towards Becky. "What... you think I can get away with crap by claiming ignorance?" Amy asked Becky, "Other than asking questions when I don't understand, I've also been lazing around Wolfgang's library for the last five weeks since Bastion won't let me do anything. The moment I found out Wolfgang was Were I started to learn so that I would be able to understand what was going on around me. So I won't make a fool of myself," Amy paused, "anyway I like to read, most of Wolfgang's library is on Pack and Were law, I found some records that were over two thousand years old," Amy picked up the book she had given Becky, "I particularly liked this book. It was written by a woman about two hundred years ago who was turned by the woman she loved. It's about what she learnt of pack life coming from a human perspective. By the time she wrote the book she had lived two hundred years of Were life. It has some amazing insights. That's the reason I gave it to you to read." Amy told her as she gave Becky the book.

Becky nodded as she took the book, she was going to be spending a lot more time reading. She couldn't just stumble through pack customs, not if she valued her hide and her life.

"But that's not all of it," Wolfgang said absently. Amy had always instinctually known what to do, like knowing she was the Alpha's mate and how to act that way without him showing her, or knowing about the ranking of the lesser Wolves and how she knew to treat each rank in relationship to her own. It was always hard for a human to learn how to be Were, there were little things that humans had problems with. 

"Pardon?" Amy said as she turned to him.

"Nothing," Wolfgang said, until the results of the aura test came back he was not going to alarm her.

Amy shrugged as she pulled out her own phone. She dialed the manor, Bastion answered the phone. "Bastion ready the manor Wolfgang's called a gathering. Get all the help you need," she told him before she hung up not waiting for his reply.

"Gillian you're in charge of making sure the Alpha's and whoever they bring with them get to the manor," Wolfgang told him delegating. Wolfgang turned to Becky, "I know you don't really like reliving those events but accurate pictures of the men involved will aid us greatly. Sienna will stay with you, Amy must come with me," Wolfgang told her gently. 

Becky nodded, "I understand, I'll do my best." 

Wolfgang smiled. "That's all I can ask."





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 04



Amy shook her head, "No I think he broke my wrist."

"Nonsense I didn't hold you hard enough," Grey-hawk disputed.

Nathanael turned to Grey-hawk. "You did if you assumed she was Were, she is for the moment still human."

Grey-hawk went pale, if Amy was human then the grip he had used definitely would have broken her wrist if not crushed it. Nathanael held out his hand, Amy offered her wrist to him, it was bruised and swollen. Nathanael checked the bones. 

"Just some Greenstick fractures, I'll get a wrist immobiliser for you," Nathanael told her.

Amy nodded. Bastion looked at Wolfgang and Amy. "I can keep dinner warm for twenty minutes go clean up," Bastion told them.

"Carry him to the treatment room, first things first Amy," Nathanael ordered. He walked her into his office, he pulled out a fibreglass moulded wrist immobiliser, Amy winced as she remembered the device, it was held on with Velcro straps but completely stopped her from using her wrist. Nathanael had kept the two he had used on her. He strapped the immobiliser in place tightly, "Now remind Wolfgang to be gentle," he told her as he nudged her out before him. Amy shrugged and walked into her room. She locked the door and turned, Wolfgang was waiting for her.

"Will that happen often?" Amy asked him as she leant against the door.

Wolfgang shook his head. "I expected nothing from the American's, the South American's are pure cat prides and don't allow inter-species mating so they wouldn't. I may get challenged by someone from the other continents but other than that not any more, not after that little display," he told her.

Amy walked into his arms and rubbed her face against his chest, Wolfgang wrapped his arms around her loosely, "I meant what said, if you ever lose I will take my own life, you are the only man I'll share my body with," Amy told him.

Wolfgang smiled pleased. "I love you too." 

They went into the bathroom. He helped her out of her clothes and into the shower. He adjusted the flow as he knew she liked the water to be slightly hot. He nuzzled and nipped at her neck, his hands slid up to cup her breasts, he loved how they just filled his hands, his thumbs and forefingers found her nipples and he started to pinch and twist them. Amy groaned, Wolfgang smiled as he was rising to the occasion.

"Wolfgang we have guests." Amy complained half heartedly. 

Wolfgang spun her around. "I could have lost you," he told her.

Amy snorted. "He didn't stand a chance and we both knew it," she told him. Wolfgang leant down to ravish her lips, Amy moaned.

Wolfgang lifted her up. Amy's legs wrapped around his hips. Wolfgang slid a hand around and between her legs to test her readiness. He smiled, she always seemed to be ready for him. He kissed her and lifted her higher, Amy reached between them with her good hand and took Wolfgang's penis to position it. Wolfgang groaned, this was a first for him, he had been slowly introducing Amy to sex in it's various guises. He had been surprised at how easily she had taken to the encounter with Sienna and Gillian, but he wanted her to be comfortable with everything she was doing so he waited for her to initiate everything. 

Amy gently stroked him as she lined him up. He pressed her against the cold tiles and pressed up into her. Amy moaned but her hand didn't move, she kept on stroking him. Wolfgang held still letting her work him up, he snorted and kissed her. He thrust forward to end what she was doing, Amy cried out in pleasure at his sudden movement. She removed her hand and wrapped her arms around him to steady herself against him as he moved. She winced and changed her grip so as to not hurt her wrist.

She hummed, she was enjoying this possessive side of him. She wondered if he would do this every time he thought some one was coming on to her. She tilted her head back offering herself to him. Wolfgang growled and sunk his teeth into her neck. Amy cried out as she climaxed. She felt blood run down her body from the fresh bite mark on her neck. Wolfgang released her neck and licked at the bite mark to seal it. He smiled pleased that it had worked, it meant her body was adjusting, beginning to heal faster, if her skin was healing faster then her fractures would be gone by morning.

He licked at her throat. Amy shook her head and tried to get off of him. "Amy please... I need to..." he begged.

Amy nodded she knew what he needed, he needed to cum, but she needed to stay awake and any session with Wolfgang was a marathon session for her as she always ended up climaxing four times before he even let loose with his one. "Let me down I want to try something," she told him. Wolfgang lifted her up and slid from her, he held her still as she regained her feet. Amy sat on the moulded step set into the shower. She gestured him forward and he approached her wondering what she wanted to try. She bit her bottom lip as she watched him.

Wolfgang's jaw dropped as Amy leant in and licked his shaft, she had been curious about this since their encounter with Gillian and Sienna. She could taste herself and him on her tongue, she didn't pause to consider it, she liked the salty and tangy mix, Wolfgang stepped closer. Amy gripped him with her good hand at his base to keep him still. He took a deep breath as he watched her lick and suck on his shaft. Her hand moved up applying just the right amount of pressure. She pulled away and watched a drizzle of pre-cum ooze from the hole of his circumcised penis. She leant forward, her tongue snaked out to taste it, it was salty but it didn't taste all that bad without her own juices. She groaned and leant in further, she sucked on the tip, Wolfgang groaned. He leant his upper body forward and braced himself against the wall. 

He took short quick breaths as he watched what she was doing. She opened her mouth wide and gently bit the sensitive head. Wolfgang snorted, Amy had never done this before but she knew instinctively what would drive him mad. She opened her mouth as wide as she could and slowly eased the head of his penis into her mouth. Wolfgang felt his eyes roll back into skull. He moaned, he wanted to roll his hips forward to thrust into her mouth but he held back. Her hand slid up and down his shaft and she sucked on the head as she couldn't fit anymore into her mouth. She used her hurt hand to flick some water onto him so it would ease her stroking. She released the head of his penis to relax her jaws and started to rub him faster and firmer.

Wolfgang groaned, he was so close. "Amy..." He tried to warn her as she slid her mouth back around the head of his penis. "Amy... I'm going to..." he felt himself jerk and his seed shot up his penis and into her waiting mouth, he groaned. Amy smirked as his seed coated her tongue, she swallowed and released his penis from her mouth. She kept jacking him off as she pointed his penis at her open mouth. Wolfgang watched as he shot into her open mouth. When he stopped shooting she licked him collecting the last of the sperm.

She released him and glanced up to him smiling pleased with herself, several spots of semen that she had missed clung to her face and chest. There was a knock on the bathroom door. "Hurry up you two you can shag later." Wolfgang rolled his eyes, Gillian had ruined a perfectly good moment. Wolfgang let her stand and they both playfully fought to get under the stream of water to get clean. 





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 04



"Aren't you tired?" she complained as she opened her eyes.

"No," he told her, as he licked her blood from his lips. He lapped gently at the wound sealing it. He travelled further down, he kissed her rounded firm backside then sunk his teeth in. Amy moaned, his bites were sweet torture to her. Wolfgang released the bite, he kissed and licked at the abused flesh. He travelled up her body and rested his weight on her. 

Amy's toes curled, she loved it when he did this, his weight pressing her down, staking his claim to her before he finally made love to her. His erection was nestled between her thighs, his lips went to her ear. He bit at the lobe making Amy shiver and close her eyes. She arched her hips up inviting him to slide home to take her. Wolfgang growled seductively at the invitation but he wanted to watch her eyes as he made love to her, watch her face contort into those beautiful faces she made when they made love.

He rose up to his hands and knees. Amy thinking he wanted to shift and take her rose up to get into position. Wolfgang flipped her onto her back and settled his body back down on her. Amy moaned and rubbed her chest against his, her breasts ached to be touched.

He went to her ear, "You bit me," he growled into her ear. Amy smirked, so that's what was keeping his blood fired up even now when she knew he was half exhausted. He bit her ear lobe again. Amy opened her mouth and sunk her teeth into his neck drawing blood. Wolfgang growled low and menacing. He pulled her legs open and slid his length home. Amy released her bite to moan. Wolfgang started to pummel her willing body. Amy's nails dug in and dragged lines across his back. She had learnt that pain, even a little, was a big turn on for Wolfgang. Wolfgang growled into her ear. "Bite me..." 

Amy smiled and sank her teeth back into his flesh, this time his chest, Wolfgang's pace sped up. 

"Harder, make me bleed." he whispered urgently.

Amy sank her teeth in harder, his blood coated her teeth, she released the bite and licked at the bite mark. Wolfgang growled. Amy's teeth sunk in again as she climaxed. Wolfgang slowed his pace but he didn't stop. He growled, he wanted her so much. Amy was pushing against him, she wanted him off her.

"Amy..." he whined, he didn't want to stop the delicious friction he was creating between their bodies.

"I want to taste you," Amy told him

Wolfgang growled as he got off of her, he rolled onto his back and rested his back on the head board, he flicked the light on as he wanted to watch this. He got comfortable. Amy was already settled between his legs. She used a bandana to keep her hair back. She leant in near his base and let her tongue snake out and she licked him from root to tip. Wolfgang's hands wanted to tangle in her hair but he restrained himself. Wolfgang felt her teeth gently applying pressure, she was watching his reaction. Wolfgang's eyes closed in pleasure. Amy's lips engulfed the head of his penis. Her hand started to jack him off. She tried to slide more of him into her mouth, but he was just too big.

"It's okay Amy I like what you did before," Wolfgang told her, he more than liked what she did before, just thinking about it made him even harder.

Amy slid him from her mouth. "What do you want?" Amy asked him teasingly.

Wolfgang's hand cupped her neck and he gently pushed her lips back over his penis. Amy's teeth grazed his head as he slid into her mouth again. Wolfgang groaned, he never knew that Amy's bites could arouse him so much. He'd had to fight himself, after she sunk her teeth into his forearm, to stop himself from picking her up, bending her over the table and taking her in front of the Alpha's. Earlier as she bit him while they were making love he nearly blew, or would have if he hadn't caught himself. Just the hint of her teeth on his penis and he had to start thinking about other things to stop himself from loosing his seed and missing all the fun. She had startled him in the shower with her bite, startled him enough that before he could even think about something else it was already too late but he wanted to enjoy this.

Amy smirked, she gently raked her teeth against the sensitive head and she slid him back out of her mouth. Wolfgang cursed as his body tightened. Amy watched him as she gently played with his balls, she leant down and gently sucked on his balls. She gently nibbled on him. His penis jerked. "Amy..." Wolfgang groaned. Amy released his balls and raced back to the head of his penis. She had only just managed to get him back in her mouth when he exploded. She kept jacking him off as she sucked him dry. Wolfgang took several deep breaths, he couldn't remember a time when he had ever cum so hard, not even when he first had Amy. Amy licked her lips once she released him. Wolfgang pulled her into his arms, Amy rested her head on his shoulder.

"Are you okay?" Amy asked after several long moments of silence. "Did I bite you too hard?"

Wolfgang chuckled. "No you didn't bite me too hard and yes I am fine. I'm just recovering, I don't think I have ever cum that hard before." 

Amy smiled and turned to him. "Really... I must remember to do that more often then." 

Wolfgang smiled, "Oh yes please," Amy chuckled. Wolfgang stroked the scars on her back. "I am the luckiest man in the world to have found you." 

Amy smiled. "You better believe it," Amy started to drift off to sleep. Amy slid a hand between them to feel his penis. It was still hard enough she thought to herself. She shifted her weight and slid him within her. "Better," she mumbled to herself as she finally slid into slumber.

Hi,

For those of you who have been madly waiting for this chapter I am sorry it took so long. For those of you who don't already know, two days after the previous post my laptop died, it took a week for them to fix it, but when I got it back my modem decided to die, so again I had to send my computer away and again it took them a week to fix. All I can say is thank goodness for pen and paper.

Just so you know ch6 is already being edited and ch7 is well on it's way. 

For all those people who sent words of encouragement I thankyou. 

I would also like to thank my editor and remember all comments are welcome.

Chapter 5.

Shift…Amy commanded. 

A beast burst out of the power flowing through her veins, clawing through her body as if it was fighting to escape the weak form it was trapped in. Amy held it in check for several moments. Amy jerked her arm free, the Italian sensing danger started to retreat, she lunged at him and allowed the beast within to control the shift. Wolfgang watched, as everything seemed to slow as her body shifted. 

Her body lengthened, bones groaned as power forced them to lengthen and strengthen, skin tore open under the stress of the change, and blood splashed the floor as blood vessels ruptured. In an instant new skin filled the tears and the damaged blood vessels repaired. Ribs snapped and expanded, her breasts flattened and vanished into her new form. Her shoulders and hips shattered and reformed making walking on all fours easier. 

Cartilage popped and cracked as joints snapped and reformed. Something that sounded like rapid gunfire was actually the joints and disks of her spine popping as it realigned to a new body type. Muscles shifted and reformed under her skin in waves, enabling new patterns of movement for this form.

Shaggy white fur erupted all over her body, her hands and feet turned into large paws as legs and arms lengthened to prevent her chest from dragging on the ground. A long tail grew from her tailbone and shifted to control her body as it moved through the air. Her head and neck were the last parts of her body to transform. Her neck widened developing powerful muscles to support her large head. Her skull cracked and expanded as a snout started to crunch it's way out of her skull, her jaw popped and shattered to reform.

Amy slammed into the Italian, her shift taking only moments although to those watching it seemed as if it took forever. She pressed him to the ground and beneath her as her body finished it's final changes. She opened her jaws wide as her upper and lower canines lengthened, her lower canines only grew slightly larger, maybe two inches in length and perhaps three quarters of an inch wide, they protruded slightly outwards so she could close her mouth without hurting herself. The upper canines grew, and kept on growing, too large to fit in her mouth they nestled either side of her lower jaw; slightly forward of the lower canines. They were four inches in length and slightly curved backward ending in deadly points, like the lower canines they were about three quarters of an inch thick.

She held him pinned to the ground with her body weight. She lifted her right forepaw, the size of a dinner plate, razor sharp claws appeared, she slashed at his chest tearing him open to the bone as she curled back her lips from her teeth and growled her warning.

Wolfgang surprised, watched Amy. She was not like any animal he'd ever seen. She looked like a hybrid, a weird mating of wolf and cat but of a cat that had not been seen since the Ice Age. Her body was long, sleek and powerful, the distinct body of a large tiger including the slightly darker grey banding on her back, belly, neck, face and the backs of her arms and legs. Her tail however was wolf like, bushy and thick however it was longer than a normal wolves and far more flexible. Her paws were the paws of a cat, with large retractable claws that could tear a man to the bone. Her head was the only part of her that was distinctly wolf, it was long with powerful jaws, blue eyes studied her toy, her pointed ears twitched keeping track of the others in the room. 

Wolfgang knew that Amy had felt nothing during her change. Adrenalin always flooded the system the moment the shift began, blocking the pain. He never remembered pain when he began to shift, until his body grew used to the changes. He thought back to the countless first shifts he had witnessed, never before had he seen a shift as violent as the one Amy just went through. He knew if she hadn't been lunging at the Italian, and if her mind wasn't in fight mode right now, her body would have given out on her under the stress, as it was her body shifted mid air, that helped put no stress on the joints or bones. He knew come morning her entire body would be one entire source of pain but it wouldn't be sharp pain, it would be a constant dull throbbing that would last for days. Wolfgang approached carefully, in this form Amy was bigger then he was in his Wolf form. 

Wolfgang wondered where her size had come from, such a large beast from such a little woman. He remembered back to his childhood lessons of the four factors that decided the size of any type of Were. Sex was the first factor, obviously, males of any mammal species were always larger than the female. The next was genetics which was where he got his size. Wolfgang's father had been large, which meant he would be large, but since he had inherited the recessive immortal gene it had added to his largeness to the point of being massive for one of his kind. Then there was power, the power it took to shift into any form, let alone a large Were was always a factor, how much the body could generate and how quickly can determine the size. The last was the Were's beast itself, if the animal they shifted into was naturally small then no amount of power or genetics would make it large.

Wolfgang was guessing that it was the last two factors that had led to Amy being as big as she was but since he didn't know exactly what she was he couldn't dismiss genetics as a factor.

"Amy," he said gently. "Amy let him go," Wolfgang said as he continued to slowly approach her.

Amy growled and leant forward to sink her fangs into the Italian's shoulder. He screamed in pain as one of her long K9's broke through his shoulder blade. She shook her head to get him to shut up. Several of the Alphas approached to try to free the Italian from her. She lashed forward with an unsheathed claw, this was her toy and she was letting no one have it. They backed away. 

The Italian tried to shift but his body refused to. Everyone watched her in surprise. Something about her had stopped the Italian from shifting. The shift could never be stopped like that. They started to wonder, to put pieces of the puzzle that was Amy together. There were too many inconsistencies surrounding her, too many strange things. Strange was normal in their lives but not nearly as strange as some of the things they had witnessed this very night concerning her.

"Amy let him go," Wolfgang said gently as he slowly approached her.

Wolfgang took his time, he knew better than to make sudden movements, if he did; he would become the target. He got to her side and held still. Amy turned to him and growled. She went to lash out but his scent washed over her. She knew that scent. She released the Italian and leant over to smell him to make sure this was the source of the scent she knew.

The Italian tried to squirm away. Amy turned quick as lightening; she lashed forward and took his throat between her teeth and growled around his neck. The Italian held still knowing his life or at least how it ended depended on how he reacted.

"Amy," Wolfgang said trying to gain her attention.

Amy's ear twitched to him, she released the Italian from her teeth, and pressed her paw to his body as she pinned him to the floor. She turned back to Wolfgang. Wolfgang held still. She pressed her snout to his neck. She took a deep breath and let his scent wash over her. She knew that scent. She took another deep breath. 

Wolfgang, this was her mate, flashed clearly in her mind. 

She licked his face and her tail moved from side to side as if she was wagging it.

Wolfgang smiled, whatever she was, she still recognized him as her mate. Wolfgang reached out to touch her. Amy stood and pulled away. She didn't want to be touched she wanted to eat.

Wolfgang grabbed the Italian's ankle and went to drag him away from Amy. Amy growled and slammed her paws onto the Italian. Everyone winced as they heard bones break. The Italian kept quiet, he knew she would hurt him more if he made any noise.  

"Amy give him to me," Wolfgang said gently as he took the Italians ankle again. He watched Amy as he gently pulled the Italian away from her. Amy made a noise Wolfgang had never heard before. It was somewhere between a snarl and a growl. Her claws dug into the Italian's body

"Amy…I have better toys for you. Let him go," Wolfgang said trying to reason with her. 

Bastion walked in with a leg of beef, he tossed it to her. Amy forgot about the Italian and attacked the meat. Wolfgang jerked the Italian away from Amy as several of the Alphas grabbed him and removed him from the room, while the other rogues were also taken away.

Nathanael walked into the room, his eyes focused on Amy. "Who is that?" he asked.

Shia leant over to him. "Amy." 

Nathanael blinked as he looked over Amy in her Were form. The thought that she should not be able to do this, flashed through his mind, the phone call he had taken earlier told him that Amy would never be Were. Nathanael frowned, they might have been wrong. Nathanael shook his head. Even if she could shift she shouldn't be able to shift for another three weeks. He then studied her body type and felt that even if she could shift she should have shifted into a wolf form not whatever she was at the moment.

She finished her leg. Wolfgang approached and gently stroked her. Her skin rippled beneath his hand, trying to shift back into her human form but it snapped back to the thick white and grey fur. 

"Nathanael?" Wolfgang asked.

Nathanael blinked. "She… what is she?" he asked in double meaning. 

Wolfgang sighed obviously he was not going to get a coherent answer from Nathanael for the moment. 

"Amy shift back," Wolfgang told her. 

Amy's skin rippled again but she couldn't shift back into her human form. She made a yowling howling noise and pressed her face to his body. Wolfgang scratched her helping her to calm down, the more calm she was the more likely she would be to change back. He scratched her behind the ears and was rewarded with a deep throaty purr. 

"Amy relax, let everything slide from your mind, then think of a moment. A memory of your other body, of maybe standing in the shower with water cascading over your body, then bring that forward," Wolfgang tried to explain to Amy one of the easiest ways to force herself back into her other body.

Amy tried again but her body would not shift into her other form. 

Grey-hawk stepped forward. "She's never shifted before?" Grey-hawk asked. 

Wolfgang nodded. 

Grey-hawk frowned he had heard of this before. He smiled to himself as he remembered; of course his mother had forced her shift. Of course Amy can't shift back into her human form, she wouldn't be able to change back until Wolfgang in his Were form took Amy in hers to seal their bond. Shifting for someone not used to it was draining to begin with so when a non-Were is involuntarily turned and has their first shift they can't shift back until mated, saving them the trouble of having to shift again just to mate. Forced turnings were different, none of his teachers had ever understood why someone forced to turn can change at will in the beginning but those who chose the pack couldn't. Grey-hawk believed it had something to do with the circumstances; a willing turn was an act of love, while a forced turn was an act of violence. Those who were willingly turned were protected by their mate and safe, those forced were not, so needed to protect themselves.

"Then technically you haven't completed the mating process. If she forced her change then she won't be able to shift back." Everyone was watching Grey-hawk as he seemed to have the answer. He shrugged in way of explanation to his unexpected knowledge. 

"It happened to my mother, she forced her shift. She was guarding some cubs and was attacked. Only she would shift from one form to the other never staying in one form for long until Da mated her wolf form. You have to finish the process, it is common knowledge in my pack." Grey-hawk told them.

Nathanael nodded, it made sense and it would complete their mating.

"Do that," Nathanael told them.

Wolfgang tried to coax Amy into following him but she wouldn't budge. Amy stood the moment she saw Bastion, he was carrying an entire forequarter of a deer. Amy started after him. Bastion raced ahead trying to put distance between him and Amy. He didn't know if she would attack him for the food he had. 

He got to Wolfgang's and Amy's room ahead of them, he threw open the door and tossed the meat in. 

Amy skid to a halt, her claws dug grooves into the wooden floor as she tried to slow herself down. She knocked Bastion over as she tried to turn to get into the room and to the meat. Wolfgang walked up to Bastion and helped him to his feet.

"She'll apologize the moment she finds out she put you on your ass," Wolfgang told him.

Bastion nodded. "I wouldn't get too close until she's eaten," he suggested. 

Wolfgang nodded. He walked into the room and locked the door not that it would stop her if she wanted out.

Amy growled and picked her food up and walked away from him. She lay down and finished her dinner. 

Wolfgang watched her eat. He didn't approach her. He just waited. When Amy started to groom, much like a cat would, he shifted into his wolf form and approached her very carefully. She could decide to turn on him at any moment.

Amy lifted a paw and flopped onto her back. Wolfgang leant forward and licked her. Amy licked him back. Her tongue was wide and rough, like a cat, and entirely pleasurable against his skin.

Wolfgang let his nose travel over her body, taking in her scent and ensuring she had not been hurt. He made his way to the junction of her thighs. Amy got to her feet and knocked him down. She licked his body.

Let me up, Wolfgang told her. 

Amy stopped licking him and let him get to his feet.

I want you, Wolfgang told her. 

Then take me, Amy replied. 

Wolfgang knew what her animal self was saying, and they were going to have a tussle. Wolfgang lunged at her, Amy growled as he landed on her. She smacked him hard with a sheathed paw sending Wolfgang flying. Amy got to her feet as Wolfgang scrambled to his feet and shifted into his hybrid form.

Cheater, Amy taunted.

Wolfgang growled and lunged. He timed his attack, as Amy went to swat him away he dodged and sent her flying to the ground. Wolfgang shifted back into his wolf form as he jumped forward. He landed on her back as she went to get up. He sunk his teeth into the back of her neck to hold her still. Amy stilled beneath him. 

Wolfgang knew he couldn't mount Amy in this position; her body was longer than his. He released her long enough to shift his body backwards. Amy held still, Wolfgang had won. Wolfgang gripped her hips with his forepaws, he went to bite her to hold her still but he noticed she wasn't struggling. He licked her back as he brought his hindquarters forward until he was pressed against her. He started to thrust hoping to find her womanhood and start mating.

Amy bent her knees a little to help him. Wolfgang sighed when he finally found her. His wolf took over and he took his mate.

"Then why would we loose," Amy asked curious as to why the Were races had tolerated the human population for so long. 

Wolfgang sighed, "We've always tried to maintain a human population, to stop us, to keep us in control of our natures, and more importantly to give us some genetic diversity so we don't become too genetically stagnant," he explained.

"But always hidden," Amy remarked.

Wolfgang nodded, "Humans are not very tolerant, they barely tolerate their own. They've been getting better but we still err on the side of caution when dealing with them. Some are accepting while others are not so accepting."

"I guess I have a lot more to learn," Amy commented.

Wolfgang smirked, "Not everything you need to know is in a book. Don't worry so much, I was born to this life and I still don't know everything. I don't think I ever will."

"So what do I look like?" Amy asked. The throb of pain that was her body was lessening to a more bearable level.

Wolfgang smirked, "Your slightly bigger than me. Your completely white but you're a hybrid, part wolf part saber-tooth tiger." Wolfgang paused, "I think." He turned to her, "Your body is that of a large tiger, bigger than me, but your head is the head of a wolf, but with saber like fangs."

"How?" Amy asked surprised, she was meant to be a wolf. 

Wolfgang shrugged he didn't know. "I don't know."

Amy tugged on her black hair. "I thought I would be black or something, not white," she told him.

"I have black hair too and my wolf is silver grey. Your human colouring doesn't necessarily transfer over to your were colouring," Wolfgang paused, "you scared me last night Amy."

"I didn't mean to, things just started to make sense, what I should do, so I did it," Amy shrugged.

Wolfgang sighed, he couldn't ask her not to do it again, "Next time warn me." He tapped his head. 

Amy nodded. "I'm sorry," she apologized.

Wolfgang smiled, he could never be truly angry with her. "When Gillian and I were younger and up to our tricks, Gillian always used to say before we got into real strife, easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission. As an adult I know better, but this world is new to you, I want you to trust yourself and live by that motto until you think you know better," Wolfgang told her. Amy nodded. Wolfgang went to tuck her in.

"No I want a bath," she told him.

Wolfgang smiled, "I'll run you one." 

He walked over to the bathtub and ran her a hot bath. He poured some of the relaxing oils she liked into the water; lavender filled the air. When the tub was full he turned the water off and returned to Amy. He picked her up and carried her into the tub.

"Wait…lets wash the blood off first, I don't want to be sitting in a tub with that man's blood in the water," Amy told him.

Wolfgang sat her on the vanity and started to wipe the dried blood from her face and neck, when she was happy that most of the blood had been wiped off, Wolfgang lowered her into the water. 

Amy sighed and closed her eyes. "Join me," she invited. Wolfgang slid in behind her. "Why am I so weak?" she asked.

Wolfgang pulled Amy into his lap and supported her in the water. "You forced your change to come early, your body wasn't really ready for it, so you're weak. Becky will also suffer from weakness when she starts to go through the rages and her change, we don't know if you'll continue to experience weakness after your change but Nathanael is positive that the weakness will fade as your body grows accustomed to the changes," Wolfgang told her.

Amy nodded and relaxed. Wolfgang nibbled at the back of her neck she shivered and her skin shifted in a wave. 

"Relax," Wolfgang warned her.

"When is this going to stop?" Amy asked.

"When you learn to control it," Wolfgang retorted.

Amy relaxed and closed her eyes. "Wolfgang, what was your first change like?"

Wolfgang smiled. "Glorious. It felt as if I was bathing in light, it…it was like sliding into a tub of warm water," Wolfgang told her struggling to describe the sensations. 

"My people…our people have always called the shift, the Kiss of the Moon. You can easily guess as to why. Standing naked beneath the moon the shift comes over you like a lovers caress, the love of the moon, hence the term Kiss of the Moon." Wolfgang again tried to explain his shift, for him it had always been an act of true release, a pleasure.

Amy frowned, she may not remember feeling the intense pain of her shift but she knew it was there, vaguely, in the back of her mind she felt her body contorting and twisting into her form. She remembered the odd sensation of feeling as if her body was being torn apart but at the same time not and she remembered the blood. There was never any blood when Wolfgang shifted. 

Why was her change different, she asked herself not knowing that Wolfgang was thinking the exact same thing. 





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 05



The man in the linen suit sat forward, "I will ensure it happens Wolfgang."

Wolfgang bowed his head, "Thank you Roberto."

What is dissolving? Amy asked Wolfgang.

Eradicating all males except for those who are young enough to be conditioned back to the way things should be. The females will be split within the packs that do the Dissolving, as will the assets of the pack and the packs lands. The pack that was will no longer exist, it will be removed from most records and amendments are made where they can't be removed without altering history, Wolfgang told her. 

Dissolving rarely happened. Some packs would link together to form a larger pack but knowledge of both packs would remain. The pack being dissolved would only be mentioned in the histories for their atrocities and why they were dissolved.

Another Elder sat forward. "The practice of baiting humans will be ended, Alpha's ignoring baiting in their packs will be dissolved," he said giving the Alpha's their last warning. Deliberately turning a human against their will was now a global matter and not to be tolerated.

"Since we are all together are there any other issues that need to be addressed?" Shia said to move this along quickly, he didn't know how long Amy would be able to stay awake or in her human form. 

"Yeah, Amy do you have a sister?" Roberto asked.

Amy shook her head, "Afraid not."

Roberto sighed, "Pity."

Amy covered her mouth to stifle a yawn. 

Roberto chuckled, "I see Wolfgang has been wearing you out."

Amy nodded, "We are new mates."

"The best kind of mates," a Scottish Alpha said with a smirk.

The mated Alpha's all chuckled. Amy excused herself and left the room. Sienna grabbed her and supported her.

They walked into a room across the hall. Nathanael jumped to his feet and checked his watch, "Shit, I hadn't expected the drug to wear off so fast."

"I doubt that any of us did, it is a powerful stimulant." Sienna said as she sat Amy down.

Nathanael lifted her shirt, prepped the area and dosed her again. 

"I've got the Alpha's convinced my tiredness comes from Wolfgang," Amy told them.

Nathanael nodded, "Good but you can't be going to the toilet every twenty minutes. Sienna might have to dose you."

"I can't be seen hovering around her it'll make the Alpha's curious," Sienna told them.

Amy took a syringe and slid it into her clothes. "I'll dose myself next."

Nathanael nodded, "Jab it straight into your thigh."

Amy nodded and stood. She took a deep breath and went back into the room. She sat next to Wolfgang wondering how long this was going to last.

Chapter 6 

Wolfgang supported Amy's weight in the elevator. The porter watched with concern. Wolfgang smiled. "She doesn't travel well, a couple hours of rest and she'll be fine," he told everyone in the elevator. Bastion pushed a porter trolley as they got out on their floor. He picked her up and carried her to the room.

Bastion tipped the porter and went to deal with the luggage. Wolfgang gently put Amy on the bed and took off her shoes. He left her lying on the covers; if she got cold she would call out for help. Amy was asleep in seconds.

Wolfgang watched her for several moments then he went and sat in the lounge. Amy had been working with Bastion to organize this trip the right way by seeking permission, organizing movement requests and much more. It had taken them a week to make the necessary arrangements including the double suite, two rooms linked to a dinning/lounge in a central hotel in London ran by Were.

Wolfgang pulled his laptop onto his knees and started to work on paperwork, some days he wished he could just hand all the decision making over to another like Amy did, he did not want to deal with this at the moment but he knew he had to get it done.

Bastion offered Wolfgang a coffee as he sat, "When can we expect the Merlins to arrive?" Bastion asked.

Wolfgang checked his watch, "In two hours."

Bastion frowned; Amy was sleeping far too deeply to be awake in two hours. "She won't be awake by then."

Wolfgang shrugged, "Then they have to wait for her, I will not disturb her just because they want to poke and prod her."

Bastion nodded. He went and got several of Amy's blouses to replace the buttons. He worked silently as did Wolfgang. An hour later there was a knock on the door. Bastion put aside his work and went to open the door. "You are early," Bastion told the Merlins.

Both men smiled and shrugged. For men who were considered as old as humanity they didn't look any older than Wolfgang, however there was a kind of insanity to the two men's eyes that betrayed their age. Taliesin had blue eyes and platinum blond hair that was left long. He wore a dark coat over a pair of faded jeans and a shirt.

Mryddin was dressed similar to his counterpart. He however had black hair that he kept short, he also wore a beard, and from the corners of his mouth a line of white hair began and joined to form a V at his chin. His vibrant green eyes studied Bastion for a moment, "Hello Bastion," he said softly.

Bastion stood aside and let them in. "You remember me?" Bastion asked surprised.

Mryddin smiled, "Of course, you actually had a brain," he said as he swept into the room after Taliesin.

Bastion paused wondering if that was a compliment or an insult, he decided to take it as a compliment.

Wolfgang nearly toppled his laptop as he jumped to his feet, "You're early," he complained.

Taliesin chuckled, "Forgive us Wolfgang, time doesn't really mean much to us."

Mryddin was glancing around, "Where is she?" Mryddin asked.

"Asleep and I won't have you waking her," Wolfgang said defensively.

Both men sat realizing that something was wrong. "What has happened?" Mryddin asked knowing that Wolfgang would attack if he thought they were a threat to his mate.

Wolfgang sat. Bastion put down tea for the Merlins to drink and refreshed Wolfgang's coffee.

"The night you told Nathanael that Amy was never human and will never be Were, we were attacked by a pack of Rogues," Wolfgang told them.

They nodded, "Yes we know of the attack, a pack was dissolved because of it," Taliesin said to show Wolfgang that they were still in the loop.

"Well we tried to get her to a safe place away from the fighting, Becky...the woman who survived the Rogues, she's a seer. They were going to take Amy, anyway we were surrounded and in the resulting battle the leader tried to steal Amy. She forced a shift and tore him up good."

Both men frowned, "Impossible..." they said together.

"I watched her shift and I had to mate her in that form so she could shift back," Wolfgang told them firmly.

Mryddin clicked, "Not a Wolf form then."

Wolfgang shook his head, "A hybrid form, from her appearance, part wolf, part saber-tooth."

Taliesin frowned, "Sabers were never a Were race," he said more to himself then to anyone else.

"But she shouldn't be able to shift, we agreed her aura would never incorporate Were tendencies," Mryddin stated.

"She's been suffering from weakness ever since," Wolfgang slid in.

They both turned to him, "Weakness?" they asked as one.

Wolfgang nodded in confirmation.

"Okay, may we see her?" Taliesin asked.

"She is sleeping, if you wake her I don't care who you are I will hurt you," Wolfgang told them firmly.

"We wont," they told him, they were confident that they could wait for her to be awake before they started to poke and prod her.

"Don't get too close to her, she has a tendency to lash out at people while she's sleeping, she sent Sienna flying a few days ago. She doesn't lash out at me though," Wolfgang warned.

They nodded and walked into the room and stood on either side of the bed. They studied her for a long time but even in person they couldn't figure out what exactly what she was. Taliesin leant in for a closer look and Amy lashed out and smacked him across the face. Mryddin tried not to laugh out loud. Taliesin rubbed his face and they left the room, as Bastion offered Taliesin an ice pack. Taliesin took it and pressed it to his abused face.

"So what is she?" Wolfgang asked.

"We still can't tell, however there are genetic tests we can perform to find out. She'll have to come to our home, the other Ancients want to meet her," Mryddin told him.

Wolfgang sighed, "We found out a week ago that Amy is adopted," he held out copies of the same pieces of paper Marshal had given Amy, "Conventional methods of investigation have brought up no clues as to anything, we can't even find out who handled the adoption or the hospital Amy was born in."

They nodded as Taliesin took the papers; they had their own methods of investigation. "We'll see what we can find," Taliesin told him. They stood and went to leave.

Bastion handed them a thick file, "Her pack medical records," he told them. 

Mryddin weighed the heavy file in his hands. He turned to Wolfgang, "What happened to her to deserve such an extensive pack medical record?" He asked.

Wolfgang sighed, "I met Amy after the plane her brother was flying..."

"Her adoptive brother..." Taliesin corrected.

Wolfgang glared at Taliesin, "Her BROTHER..." he emphasized telling Taliesin that no matter what they dug up about her true identity her brother was still her brother, blood bond or not, "Crashed his plane into my pack lands, either luck was on her side or the gods have taken interest in her life but for some reason I was there when the plane crashed. I felt compelled to go for a run, I was perhaps a quarter mile from the crash site. I pulled her from the wreck. Nathanael..."

Taliesin frowned and interrupted, "The riddle man..." he asked Mryddin.

"Will you let me finish?" Wolfgang growled, he quickly remembered Amy was asleep in the other room and lowered his voice. The two Merlins gestured for him to continue. 

"Nathanael is the packs doctor, he noticed first that Amy wasn't human," Wolfgang told them.

"How did he know?" Mryddin asked gently, hoping not to aggravate the already stressed Alpha.

Wolfgang gave Mryddin a sidelong look before answering, "She survived wounds that he doubted even a Were could have survived. It's all in her medical records, he keeps extensive records," he explained.

"I will go over the file," Mryddin said, he was truly interested in what had alerted Nathanael to the fact she wasn't human, and too how badly she was damaged.

"When do you want us to come to the temple?" Wolfgang asked.

"When she is awake, I take it you want to know as soon as possible. We'll also look at her weakness when she comes." Taliesin told him.

Wolfgang nodded. He watched as they let themselves out.

*

Taliesin and Mryddin shut the door, they glanced around for several moments making sure no one was around to witness them physically teleport themselves back to their home, aptly named the temple, the manor was the one constant in the Ancients lives. A place they could go to reflect, relax and add to their combined wealth of knowledge and technology.

"The Kitchen?" Taliesin asked.

Mryddin nodded. 

They closed their eyes and focused for several moments on where they wanted to go. Bright light surrounded their bodies as they willed their bodies back to the manor. The old proverb that if you want something hard enough it will happen, that was basically the Ancients power, almost everything was within their ability as long as their will to succeed was strong. Physical teleportation, time travel and much more were all within their abilities because almost nothing was impossible.

Their bodies materialised in the kitchen of their home. Mryddin put the file down on the large wooden table in the kitchen and sat. He opened the file and grabbed a CD marked X-rays. He focused for a moment and before him a small black dome appeared, he sat the CD on the dome, the CD floated, above it a holographic screen appeared showing Amy's X-rays.

Mryddin loved this little bit of technology, unlike most of the things they had brought back from their hops forward in time, this computer came from back in time, from the time of Atlantis and surprisingly compatible with everything they had. They actually had quite a few bits of Atlantian technology, for the moment, both present and distant future Atlantis was the only place where they could get telekenetically controlled anything.

Taliesin gave Mryddin a cup of tea and studied the X-rays with him. Mryddin used his mind to flick through the various X-rays. Atlantian technology was based on simplicity, in both design and use, the mind worked faster than the hand so their computers had a telekenetic/telepathic processor, which translated mental commands. The small dome Mryddin had made appear was the equivalent of having four super computers sitting in the palm of his hand.

"We're agreed then..." Mryddin asked.

Taliesin nodded, "Yes, definitely part Ancient."

"But what is she?" Taliesin asked.

"No the real question is who sired her? I'll rally the others." Mryddin stood and paused for a moment. "Her recovery is remarkable," he remarked.

Taliesin nodded, even Ancients couldn't heal as fast or as well as Amy had.

*****

Amy rolled over and pressed her face against Wolfgang's chest. Wolfgang wrapped an arm around her. He knew she was slowly waking up. Amy made a little noise as she stretched. Wolfgang leant in and kissed her, Amy moaned but broke the kiss, "How long was I out?" she asked.

"Four hours," Wolfgang replied.

Amy sat up, "Shit I slept through the Merlins."

Wolfgang chuckled, "Don't worry, Taliesin will not forget you any time soon."

Amy turned and gave him a perplexed look. 

"He got too close," Wolfgang told her.

Amy's jaw dropped she knew what she had done; she had lashed out at him, "I hit him?"

"I warned him not to get too close," Wolfgang told her, then pulled her into his arms.

"I had questions," Amy told him.

Wolfgang pressed a finger to her lips, "Have a shower and get dressed, since the Merlins still don't know what you are, they want to perform some tests."

Amy smiled and leant in to kiss him. "Join me?" she asked seductively before she sucked on his bottom lip.

Wolfgang groaned as he broke the kiss, "You'll fall straight to sleep if I make love to you."

"Don't care," Amy told him.

Wolfgang grabbed her and carried her into the bathroom. He stripped her and turned the water on as she tugged buttons free, she slid her hands over his chest and pushed his shirt from his shoulders. She leant in and licked his chest, gently scrapping her teeth against his skin.

Wolfgang growled and flung his shirt away. Amy undid his pants and slid her hands into his boxers. She slid one hand between his legs to cup his balls. Wolfgang groaned, he slid his pants and boxers down, wiggled his hips and they fell down. He stepped out of them as Amy was already stroking and squeezing him. They walked back into the water. Wolfgang leant against the wall as Amy knelt and licked him. Bastion walked in and grabbed their clothes.

Wolfgang tangled his fingers in her hair. Amy gripped him with both hands and started to suck and Wolfgang felt his wolf come forward. Amy brushed her teeth gently against the spongy head as Wolfgang moaned and felt his control slip slightly. Amy felt his body shift slightly beneath her fingers and she felt him jerk. He jerked her lips away and took a deep breath to steady himself.

Amy smirked as she watched him. Wolfgang glared playfully at her, "Pleased with yourself?"

Amy smiled and nodded. Wolfgang gently tugged on her hair. Amy stood, Wolfgang released her hair and picked her up and pressed her against the tiles. He kissed and nibbled at her throat and neck. Amy groaned and burrowed her fingers into his hair pressing his head down to her breasts. Wolfgang lifted her higher to give her breasts the attention they deserved. Amy wrapped her legs around his waist as he gently nibbled and sucked on her breasts. Amy moaned.

He lowered her back down kissing his way back up her body. He kissed her deeply as he went to position himself. Amy's hand joined his and Wolfgang removed his hand and let Amy position him. Amy pressed his maleness against her and jerked her hips forward impaling herself on him. Wolfgang groaned and pressed forward sinking himself within her as he held her against the tiles. 

Wolfgang panted as he paused holding still with him buried deeply. He nibbled at her ear, as they enjoyed the closeness. It had been a while since they had last made love. Amy rested her head against his shoulder. Amy turned her head and bit his neck, wanting him to start moving but knowing that he wanted to calm a little to enjoy this. He slowly started to move, grinding his body into hers, building a delicious friction that made Amy moan.

Wolfgang's control slipped a little more as Amy groaned his name, and he shifted a little more; water soon plastered his body hair flat. Amy knew that soon he would be in his hybrid form, his part man part wolf form. Amy arched her neck so she could nip and bite at his throat knowing he liked it.

Wolfgang growled and jerked his head away from her lips, her bites were just driving him closer to climax when he knew she wasn't ready. He jerked her head to the side and bit her neck to hold her still. He grunted and started speed up. He released her neck and pressed his face to hers to keep her face turned.

Amy felt the telltale signs that he was getting close to cuming. He groaned and started to pound into her willing flesh. He pulled away from her freeing her head. Amy moaned and arched her head back as her body tingled, Wolfgang already on the edge of a shift nearly snapped. In the animal world of a wolf, exposing the neck and belly were acts of submission, doing it while they made love was paramount to saying she was his sexual slave.

Amy lunged forward and sunk her teeth into his neck hard enough to draw blood, knowing how much he loved it and knowing how close she was to climax. 

Wolfgang growled as his hands turned into claws that circled her hips and pressed against the wall. His member expanded within her, making her cry out in both slight pain and pleasure adding to the sensations coursing through her body. Wolfgang's jaws lengthened. He gripped her shoulder between his teeth, biting hard enough to mark but not to draw blood, as he almost started to jackhammer into her. His knot slid in just as Amy cried out in climax in unison to Wolfgang's groaning grunt, which barely escaped his jaws because they were holding Amy in place.

Amy's cry was like a sirens call to his beast, calming him. He gently released her neck and licked her from shoulder up her neck and over her lips. Amy opened her mouth and touched her tongue to his. She felt the first niglings of fatigue hit her system but it had been worth it. She pulled herself tight to his body and sighed.

Amy held on as her body shuddered around his pulsing maleness. She took several deep breaths as she felt him take back control and his body shifted back; the only part of him not to change was lodged deeply within her. Wolfgang turned the water off and carried her into the room and to the bed. They lay side-by-side and Wolfgang stroked her. He leant down and started to suck on one of her nipples.

Amy moaned when Wolfgang slid a hand between their bodies and slid two fingers inside her, he pressed against the knot pushing it further in. Amy jerked in surprise as it swelled further and sent little pleasurable after shocks though her body. Wolfgang pulled his fingers out and licked the mixed juices from his fingers. Bastion walked in and started to organize clothes for them. He glanced over and smiled, every time they tied together like this meant more of a likely hood that Amy would get pregnant.

Wolfgang leant in and started to lick and nibble on a breast. Amy closed her eyes in pleasure. They ignored Bastion as he took off his jacket and crawled forward. They both jerked down when they felt a tongue licking at them. 

"We aren't official yet." Wolfgang commented.

Right, like someone is going to take Amy from you. I will be busy during the introduction and I've been wanting to learn Amy's scent since I first smelt it after your first time. Bastion retorted to them both not once stopping in tasting them.

Bastion glanced up but kept on licking, learning the scent of the Alpha female because he was so close to both he was allowed to really get to taste Amy, everyone else at the introduction were only allowed to smell and lick at their pooled juices. Bastion dipped his tongue into Amy's womanhood to collect their combined juices from the source. As Wolfgang slid free Bastion took over licking and sucking Amy's womanhood.

Wolfgang was about to growl a warning at Bastions behaviour but Bastion was already retreating.

"Go clean up, we can't leave the Merlins waiting," he said as he walked away licking his lips clean.

Amy stood and stumbled back into the bathroom, her legs felt like jelly. Wolfgang was behind her; he supported her in the shower. His hand slid between her legs and splashed water onto her, he grabbed the extendable showerhead and turned it on. He pointed it at her womanhood in effect douching her. He turned the extra showerhead off and put it aside. Amy turned around, she squirted some shower gel into her hands and proceeded to wash him in much the same way he had washed her moments ago.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 06



Wolfgang grunted as her hands slid over him. She squirted some more gel in her hands and started to run it over his chest while Wolfgang did the same to her. They both hopped under the spray to wash off. Amy got out before Wolfgang and walked naked into the bedroom. She grabbed a towel and started to dry herself when Wolfgang stole the towel from her. 

"Hey mine," Amy protested as she grabbed the towel and tried to tug it back. Wolfgang wouldn't relinquish the towel so Amy released it and grabbed the other towel on the bed and started to dry herself. 

Wolfgang pulled her into his arms and gently bit her neck. Amy shivered, she tried to pull away but Wolfgang tightened his grip.

Bastion walked in. "Cut it out now Wolfgang, the Merlins are expecting us," he said sternly as if telling a puppy to let go of his expensive shoe.

Wolfgang bit a little deeper breaking the skin, then he released her. Amy pulled her clothes on then went to a mirror to check the bite; it was bleeding slightly. Bastion handed her a piece of gauze to clean the wound. 

Amy touched it to her neck, she was getting used to tending to Wolfgang's bites. The moment it stopped bleeding she applied some wonder cream and pulled her collar up to cover the wound as she buttoned the blouse closed. She slipped on some shoes then turned to Wolfgang. 

He finished tying his shoes and stood. He walked up to her and pulled her collar aside to study his handy work and smiled. "Lets go," he told her smugly. Amy rolled her eyes, she wondered silently if she should have heeded Wolfgang's caution. 

Wolfgang noticed the tiredness in her movements, "I told you we shouldn't have had that tryst."

They got into the elevator and Amy leant against his body. "When was the last time we made love?" Amy asked

"Almost two weeks," he answered.

Amy smiled, "There's your answer, just because I'm tired doesn't mean I'm not interested in you sexually. I want you all the time but you have been afraid to take me... afraid a tryst will add to my weakness." Amy followed him from the lift.

A car was waiting for them. Members of the local Were community were acting as both guides and guards. It was only after the Merlins guarantee that they were only coming to London to speak with them that they had been allowed permission. If it had been low ranking Were there wouldn't have been a fuss but Wolfgang and Amy were both Alpha's of a large high-ranking pack. A stupid Alpha was one who allowed free reign to another on their land.

Amy slid into the car first and was followed by Wolfgang and Bastion. Amy yawned and stretched. She watched the driver glance at her in the rear vision mirror. Amy made eye contact and the driver knowing her error quickly jerked her eyes back onto the road where they would stay. They drove out of the city, through the country for over an hour and onto a property. They got out at an old manor like house. 

Amy paused; the air was humming with power. 

The driver got out and studied Amy for a moment. 

"You feel it don't you?" she asked.

Amy nodded, "Ley line crossing, not here though, over the hill?"

The driver nodded, "The Kings men. In Britain, Scotland and Ireland the Ley line crossings are marked with a monument."

Amy nodded, "Ley line crossings are gateways to the other world. Sacred sites to the old pagan religions." Amy had decided to brush up on her British mythology hoping that some background knowledge would help her when dealing with the infamous Merlins.

In her research of the Merlins Amy had come across information on ley lines. Ley lines criss-crossed the world, invisible pathways of mystic energy that were only discernible to those who were in tune with the world around them. Where Ley lines meet they become a point of great power, a gateway to the other world or Avalon and can allow even time travel. These meeting places are normally marked by monoliths: huge hunks of rock. Some of these sites were altered by early man to make use of the power in rituals. The Kings Men is one such group. 

The Kings Men are a circle of seventy pillars of stone in a perfect circle marking the outer limits of the point of power. Another lone stone set off from the circle is the King's stone, local folklore said the King made a bet with a witch that he could see the village, he lost the bet so both he and his men were turned to stone. Amy smirked as she remembered another snippet of information, at midnight the stones were said to come to life and walk as men. To gaze upon them would turn the person to stone.

The driver coughed, "Not so old, the Were here have always followed the old belief structure, we just pretended to be Christian when the Romans and then Saxons tried to take over. After a while we slowly picked the Saxons off, but to keep the world from knowing we kept on pretending." The driver studied Amy for a moment longer, "What religion do you follow?" she asked.

"I don't, religion is a load of crap fed to the naïve to keep them in line and paying homage to the ones who preach the crap," Amy replied.

The driver went pale. Wolfgang snorted and chuckled.

"Gods are real," the driver told her.

Amy smiled, "I have no doubt that they are, I still don't care, organized religion is a bunch of crap."

Amy walked up to the building, she had never put any store into religious mumbo jumbo; to her it had always felt like a load of crap. To keep the down trodden from rising, giving those with ambition more power and giving those with money the false belief that because they go to church every Sunday, donate money to the clergy, it made up for all the nasty crap they did every day. When she was young she had been forced to go to church with her parents but she had only ever paid lip service to the whole thing. She refused communion and refused every aspect that made a good Christian. It was a whole bunch of propaganda used by the churches to keep people in line and their orders in power.

Wolfgang joined her at the stairs that lead to the front door. 

Mryddin met them at the door, "Ah it is good to see you awake this time, I am Mryddin."

"Amy." 

He smiled and gestured them in. They walked into the house. "We are just waiting for the last two Ancients to arrive," he told them.

Amy nodded and sat when she was directed to a seat. Taliesin studied her for a moment, then turned to Wolfgang, "You just had to wear her out," Taliesin accused him.

Wolfgang held up his hands and went to defend himself.

"I started it Taliesin, he preached caution," Amy told him preventing Wolfgang from placing the blame on her. Taliesin stood and went to get a stimulant, as they wanted Amy awake. The rest of the Ancients walked in, they paused surprised and studied Amy.

"She's part Ancient," Vivian said aloud. She was tall and thin with alabaster skin. Her deep sapphire blue eyes watched Amy with surprise. Long black hair framed her face.

Noah glanced around. "Which of you sired her," he accused the room knowing he hadn't had sex in so long he was positive he had not sired her. Noah's green eyes darted the room, his brown hair was kept in a ponytail.

Mryddin shoved him. "I gather none of us have sired a child recently, which leads us to believe that Amy was born some time in our futures and brought back to this time for some reason. We'll know for sure when we run some tests," he told everyone to calm them down, he had known that Amy would cause a stir; their numbers were small, limited to the twelve that were in this room. As a race they didn't breed well, they hadn't figured out why exactly, some believed that since Ancients were technically chosen by the gods, not exactly a race merely a unique group that they would rarely breed. They simply accepted that there were not meant to be many of them and went on with their lives. 

When Vivian fell pregnant it had caused a stir, as Rhiannon was the first and only born Ancient. Rhiannon's father was a human warrior back in the early Iron Age, they had a night of unbridled passion and Rhiannon was conceived. The day after Rhiannon's conception her father had been killed in a massive war. Vivian had been searching for his reincarnation ever since, to find the man she had fallen madly in love with hoping that it was that love that had inspired Rhiannon's conception.

Mryddin glanced around wondering how long it would take before a shouting match broke out, they rarely all got together as they normally didn't get along well, they were all strong independent people with strong views that often conflicted. When they did gather they maintained one simple rule, no history. Ancients were watchers, traveling, forward, backward and sideways across time, they always kept track of where and when the others were going, because of this none of them could accurately guess their ages anymore.

Mryddin himself had gone back in time twice, once to the time of Cro-Magnon man, and had lived through every age right up until the thirty first century, and the second time he went back to the days of Atlantis (pre deluge) and relived all the same centuries from a different point of view. He had also been further forward then the thirty first century and across in time to different parallels or dimensions, every possible outcome of every possible crossroads was played out in the differing dimensions of time, he remembered spending a century in a dimension where Hitler won the First World War. After that experience he made sure never to live in or see a dimension where tyranny and mass genocide ruled, he had been amazed when he learnt just how many of those dimension there were. 

Amy watched as another argument flared. Part Ancient, that they were all certain of, it was the other part of her that was baffling them. It wasn't human, they would know, just as they would know if she was part Were or some thing else, that meant she was new to them.

Wolfgang turned to Amy, Ancient? He told her, never would have guessed.

Amy yawned. Vivian studied her for a moment, "Your energy is erratic, what have you been doing?"

Amy sighed, "I've been suffering from weak spells for a while now. Ever since I forced my body to shift."

Vivian frowned, "But as an Ancient you can shape shift, it shouldn't drain your energy like this."

Arthur hit her, "You forget that she isn't pure Ancient maybe something in her other half is reacting with her Ancient half."

"She also shifted into a Hybrid form, some kind of Wolf/ Saber-Tooth mix," Taliesin told the room. He rolled up her sleeve and took several vials of blood.

"That could explain her weakness," said Cleopatra. "Our ability to shape shift is subject to natural law, whole animals, true animals, in both size and shape, nothing dreamt up."

Vivian sat before her; she was beginning to feel a bond form between them but not one of mother and daughter. "Can you describe your change for us?" She asked gaining everyone's attention.

Amy nodded, "Once I know your names," Amy said confidently. If they chose to call her kin then she knew her questions would be answered.

Vivian chuckled, "Where are our manners? I'm Vivian. The man who made the accusation of who sired you is Noah, the man who hit me is Arthur, the red head is Cleopatra the woman next to her is Boadicea and the man next to her is D'Artagnan. The two in the corner over there are Robin of Loxley and Guinevere, the young lady by the fire is my daughter Rhiannon and the man next to her is Rhun." 

Amy smiled her greeting.

"I am assuming though that you know Taliesin and Mryddin already," Vivian added as an after thought.

"I do," Amy told her.

"Good, normally they forget," Vivian replied.

Taliesin smirked, went to inject her with the stimulant. 

"I wouldn't bother it'll just wear off in twenty minutes," Wolfgang told him.

"This isn't the stimulant you Were's use, this is an Ancient stimulant it works differently," Taliesin told him as he injected her. "We need you awake for at least another hour. This should do the trick."

"Why an hour?" Amy asked.

"Because it will take at least forty five minutes for the quickest of the test to be completed," he told her. "We had your things moved here and checked you out. I believe you will feel more comfortable here than there," he told Amy and Wolfgang hoping they wouldn't be offended.

"It's okay we kind of gathered that we wouldn't be staying there long, that you would want Amy closer so you can grill and prod her," Wolfgang said assuring Taliesin that he understood.

Taliesin smiled and stood, "Good," he said as he walked off.

"So... tell us about your change?" Rhiannon prompted.

Amy thought back to that night. "My body felt like it was on fire, then this power exploded from within me. It felt like it took forever to fill me. My skin was tingling, one moment it was hot the next it was cold. I felt dizzy, like I was trapped in a vice being squeezed, I felt like I was going to explode. At the same time nothing felt right, everything was wrong. Then I just allowed the power to consume me, I thought a single word, shift, and it was done," Amy finished.

"Wait you didn't direct the shift?" Rhiannon asked.

"You didn't experience the shift?" The tall striking Boadicea asked at almost the exact time Rhiannon did.

Amy glanced between the two women wondering whom to answer first. Rhiannon and Boadicea turned to each other their eyes locked in a silent debate as to who got their answer first. Rhiannon rolled her eyes; it didn't matter so long as both questions got answered, Rhiannon conceded to Boadicea.

Amy turned to the striking woman, "I did experience it, kind of, Wolfgang calls it battle mind. My mind was focused on the battle I was throwing myself into not the change itself. I remember feeling as if I was being torn apart but at the same time I felt nothing, just the power throbbing in my veins."

Boadicea could understand that, she had been in battle, gotten wounded, knew she had been wounded but had not felt it, had kept on fighting, battle mind, she would have to remember that term.

Amy turned to Rhiannon and shook her head, "I didn't direct it, I simply let the power do what it wanted."

"The power would have assumed a form natural for Amy, I'm assuming the Saber but because Amy was mated to a Wolf that might have changed her form slightly," Arthur concluded as he tapped his fingers against the arm of the armchair he was in. His legs were crossed, dappled grey hair was kept short but in a ruggedly handsome kind of way, stubble growth of the same dappled grey covered his face.

"Her tendencies were more cat like. Her body was long and powerful, like a cats, her tail was bushy, with paws the size of dinner plates and razor sharp retractable claws. The only thing that looked anything like a Wolf was her head," Wolfgang told them.

"Have you shifted since that night?" Cleopatra asked as she tucked her vibrant red hair behind an ear and worried her full bottom lip between her teeth as she waited.

Amy shook her head, "I've been too afraid to."

Wolfgang could see where this was going; they wanted to witness the shift for themselves. "Not until she's slept," he told them firmly, he wanted to be completely prepared for when he witnessed that event again.

Robin snorted, "We can inject her with some more stimulant, she'll be fine," he said flippantly, as he pushed himself off the wall, a well trimmed line of facial hair ran in a straight line from the middle of his bottom lip to the tip of his pointed chin. 

"NO..." Wolfgang said as he stood, "Not until she has slept."

Amy yawned surprised; surely an hour had not lapsed already. 

Vivian watched her surprised, "It's wearing off fast." She turned to Robin, "She'll shift after she has slept, her body is chewing through the stimulant, in her shifted form she'll be out for the count in a few moments if she doesn't black out half changed."

Wolfgang sat pleased that someone else was trying to look out for Amy.

Rhiannon studied him for a moment. "You love her deeply," she stated. She didn't need Wolfgang to confirm or deny that, Rhiannon could almost taste their love.

"Amy is my world," Wolfgang told them. 

Amy smiled and took his hand. I love you too.

Wolfgang smiled. Amy yawned again and Wolfgang leant over to her. He moved her shirt and ran his nose over her skin; he knew how to wake her up a little. He sunk his teeth into her neck. Amy blinked and shivered. Wolfgang released her and sat back, pleased with himself. She hit him and checked to make sure she wasn't bleeding.

Rhun chuckled, "I'm mated to a feisty Snow Leopard." He lifted his shirt to show the bite marks that marred his chest. "Every time she wants me awake she bites me. It wakes me instantly."

Amy nodded in understanding, adrenalin coursed through her the moment his teeth touched her skin.

"It'll keep me awake for a little while," Amy told him.

Rhun however knew the side effect of the bite, soon Amy would have sexual urges, or at least that was what happened to him, a few moments after the bite he would be rock hard and wanting to romp.

Taliesin walked in, he held the preliminary results in his hands.

Everyone turned to him. "Amy you were born in the year 2912. I haven't pin pointed where, that will take a little more time."

"Wait... I'm from the future?" Amy interrupted.

Taliesin nodded.

"How? How do you know that?" Amy asked.

Taliesin smirked, "I simply ran a sample of you're blood and DNA through the birth records we have, they go right up to the thirty second century. The DNA database starts in three years time. As I was running your DNA through all databases we have, including the one we have from Atlantis, your birth record popped up." He glanced down to his print out, "Child- female, unnamed, date of birth- 12-8-2912, time of birth- 0245." 

Taliesin shrugged, "I wish I could say we figured it out by tracing genetic mutations but we didn't, however our machines are having as much fun now with your DNA as the machine used then did," Taliesin frowned, "When I said then I mean in the future..." he frowned again, he had a funny feeling things were going to get strange around Amy, now and then, it was the past for Amy but at the same time it was her future.

"Fun?" Amy questioned.

"Normally the machine we have takes 5 to 10 minutes to create a complete genetic map... with yours the machine's still working... according to the records from your birth extract, the machine they used died twenty hours after a sample of your blood was imputed and had only mapped about 2% of your genetic structure. We have a better machine than they used at the time hopefully we'll get further than they did," Taliesin said with a shrug, he couldn't explain it any more.

"Better how?" Amy asked.

"Technically the machine we have has two hundred years worth of better technology then the one used to try to map your DNA at birth," Taliesin explained.

Amy just cast him a confused look.

Mryddin stepped in to expand on Taliesin's explanation. "See Amy when we go forward in time we can bring back things, technology and stuff. We have a machine from the 31st century working on your blood instead of the machine from the 29th century used when you were born. Every time we come across a better piece of technology than we have we acquire one and bring it back."

"Why?" Amy asked wondering why they bothered to bring back everything to this point in time.

Mryddin smiled pleased with Amy's reasoning, "Because at this point of time we can alter the future, why do you think you were brought back to this point in time, to live now?" Mryddin asked leaving Amy with a question she couldn't answer.

"I'll help you keep the machine from dying," Rhun offered, he turned to Amy, "For a seventh century Welsh king I'm awesome with technology," he explained.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 06



"Who sired her?" Noah asked wanting to get straight to the point now that Amy's questions were answered.

Taliesin turned to Rhiannon, "Rhiannon did."

Rhiannon jerked surprised, she was a mother. She turned to Amy, "Amy I..."

Amy's mind seemed to slow as her eyes locked onto Rhiannon, her mind ticked slowly over, Rhiannon's words seemed to come to her blurred. This was the woman who had given birth to her. No, Amy corrected, this wasn't the woman who had birthed her, that person was somewhere forward in time. Amy's mind shut down leaving that alone for later, she didn't know what to think, it was so confusing. Her mother wasn't really her mother, or at least she won't be for another nine hundred years. How did that happen, would she be present at her own birth only to watch Rhiannon give her away.

"Don't," Amy interrupted, "A future you gave birth to me." 

Amy turned to Taliesin, "And my father is?"

Rhiannon snorted, "Amy, I'm gay... my partners have always been female."

Taliesin smiled, "She's right you have two mothers."

Amy frowned but then shrugged it off; she didn't know what kind of technology they would have in that time. Hell she didn't even know how Taliesin could tell that it was two women who had conceived her.

Taliesin watched Amy for a few moments wondering if she would ask her question.

"How do you know two women sired me?" Amy asked trying to stay awake long enough to hear the answer.

"There are ways, I'll explain another time when you're awake and able to follow the conversation completely," Taliesin told her.

Amy nodded that she understood. "So...half Ancient half what?" She asked.

Taliesin blushed; Amy had come to them to find out what she was yet he could not give her the knowledge she desired. "I'm sorry Amy, at the moment we don't know."

Vivian turned to him then back to Amy, "Give us time Amy, we have to separate Rhiannon's DNA to make an accurate picture of what your other half is," Vivian said as she tried to comfort her.

"Okay," Amy accepted, at the moment all she cared about was going to sleep. 

"Why don't we get you to bed?" Mryddin said gently hoping to prevent the others from keeping her when she so obviously had to sleep.

Wolfgang was on his feet the moment the suggestion left Mryddin's mouth. He gently picked Amy up and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Wolfgang went to follow Mryddin.

Hold for a moment, Amy told him. He turned around so she could address them. "Question, what came first, the chicken or the egg," she asked them.

Vivian snorted in amusement, as they left the room. 

Mryddin chuckled and turned to Amy, "You have a warped sense of humour Amy," he told her, he then frowned, "But a valid riddle, which came first, Amy or the baby. I guess the only answer will come when the riddle as to why you are here is answered," he told her.

He walked them up a flight of stairs and down a wing of the manor. He walked up to a door and pushed it open, then walked in and turned on a lamp. Wolfgang ignored Mryddin as he put Amy down on the bed, and quickly got her shoes and socks off.

"Amy just a little longer," he told her, but Amy was beginning to drift. He leant forward and sunk his teeth into her neck. Amy's eyes snapped open but her body was unresponsive. Wolfgang lifted her up and tried to strip her but she was one massive bit of unresponsive mass and hard to handle.

"Do you need a hand?" Mryddin asked gently when he noticed Wolfgang struggling with her.

Wolfgang nodded, "I'll hold her up if you can get her pants." Mryddin went to help.

"I'll do it," Rhiannon said as she walked forward. "Turn the bed down please," she asked Mryddin. 

He nodded and went to turn on another lamp before turning the bedding down.

Rhiannon reached around Amy and undid her belt. "All of it or just to her knickers?" she asked as her hands tugged the form hugging jeans down.

"I prefer her naked," Wolfgang said playfully then he suddenly remembered that this was her mother. "I didn't mean that...well I did but..." he tried to correct his error.

Rhiannon chuckled, "I'll let that slide," she told him feinting anger. She slid the pants down and pulled Amy's legs out one at a time. She then tugged Amy's underwear down and left them with Amy's jeans. She stood and together they managed to juggle Amy out of her blouse. "Shirts would have been easier," Rhiannon commented to herself as she let the blouse fall to the ground.

"No...Blouses are, buttons pop, shirts rip," Amy said groggily making no sense to Rhiannon.

Rhiannon cast Wolfgang a perplexed look.

Wolfgang chuckled, "I have a tendency to tear Amy's clothes from her in frustration. I reduced three suitcases fully packed with clothes to a few pairs of jeans and a couple of blouses in the matter of a few weeks." 

Rhiannon chuckled and helped Amy out of her bra. Wolfgang deposited Amy into the bed. Mryddin pulled the covers up so that she didn't catch a chill.

Wolfgang turned to Rhiannon, "Thank you." Rhiannon nodded.

"When you return to your pack..." Rhiannon started to say.

"You will always be welcome in my home Rhiannon," Wolfgang interrupted giving her an open invitation to his home and to his mate. Rhiannon smiled and bowed. Rhiannon and Mryddin retreated. Wolfgang turned off the lamps then stripped and joined Amy. He pulled her into his arms and sighed.

~~*~~*~~*~~*~~

'Shit it's an Alpha,' a voice said. Amy struggled to wake up, not wanting to, as her entire body was one source of pain.

'Are you sure, they all look alike to me,' a deeper voice said.

'Yes, red band upper right arm,' the first voice said.

'She must have been struck during the protest,' another voice said.

'Where's her mate?' A female voice joined in. 

'Could she be the one,' the deep voice said.

'She comes with us either way,' the first voice said.

Amy felt herself being picked up and carried.

'DOWN,' a voice yelled.

Amy was dropped as the group who had pulled her free of the wreck of a car took cover. An explosion was followed by falling debris. 

'What the fuck are our orders?' A panicked voice cried out.

Amy finally started to wake up. Gunfire and explosions assaulted her sensitive ears, and she opened her eyes and rolled onto her belly.

'It amazes me how much damage they can take,' a woman said as she knelt next to Amy. 'Can you move under your own steam?' 

Amy nodded and glanced around dazed. 'What...' she managed to choke out.

'As far as we can tell the protest was hit, can you get in contact with anyone?' The woman asked.

Amy grabbed the woman and rolled her beneath her body as bullets thudded into the spot she was just in. Amy turned and glanced at the shooter. 

Anyone still kicking? Amy sent out silently as one of the marines took out the gunman.

I am, Bastion replied.

Amy, Wolfgang said pleased that she was awake.

Yes. Came the reply from a large chunk of Amy and Wolfgang's pack.

Where's Shia? Wolfgang asked.

I don't know...Wolfgang...what day is it? Amy asked.

'We have to move,' was yelled into her ear.

Amy was on her feet and moving before they had a chance to go. They followed her as she weaved a path through the war zone. Gunfire was everywhere as was smoke. Amy smashed down a door and ran into the room. She was followed in and the door was replaced. Amy sat against the wall and panted.

Rice, Amy noted her nametag, was the woman who carried the first aid kit. She knelt next to Amy.

'What...' Amy coughed. She reached up and felt her neck a large chuck of shrapnel was lodged in her throat making it almost impossible to talk.

Rice grabbed her hand, 'Leave it...'

Amy shook her head and went to yank the shrapnel free.

Amy where are you? Wolfgang demanded.

'Map...' Amy croaked out. A map was produced.

'Where...' she demanded. The Sergeant grabbed the map and pointed in a vague area.

'Here somewhere,' he told her as he showed her the map.

Amy handed the information onto Wolfgang and her pack members. She gestured to the group then pointed down, 'Stay.'

Amy reached up to yank the shrapnel free. Rice stopped her again and started to pad the wound.

'Leave it,' Rice told her.

Amy... Sienna called to her mind a moment before she tapped the door.

Guns were trained on the door. Amy shook her head and waved them off. Sienna raced in and slammed the door. She held her hands up.

'I'm Sienna her second,' Sienna protested. She turned to Amy, 'Shit Amy you look like hell,' Sienna told her. 

Amy studied Sienna; she didn't look any better than Amy felt.

Rice turned to Amy surprised, they had actually found the one Were they were supposed to have, only she was not meant to have been where they had found her. 'Fuck me...' she said to herself. Amy was the whole point of this, the attack had been aimed at her, the Were races were rallying around her, her words.

Amy turned to Sienna, What the fuck is going on... I don't remember anything other than going to sleep in the Merlins home. 

Sienna knelt, 'Amy that was four months ago...' Sienna told her.

What the hell is going on? Amy demanded. 

Several other pack members walked in. Nathanael knelt next to Amy and studied her. 'Why didn't you yank it free?' He asked her.

Amy pointed to Rice. Nathanael removed the padding and yanked the shrapnel free. He applied pressure to the wound for several moments as her body knit back together. Amy knocked him away; her senses were screaming danger at her.

'MOVE,' Amy demanded and jumped to her feet. She crashed through a wall and out another door into an alley way everyone following her. Amy found a man cover and lifted it. 

'DOWN.' Everyone headed down into the sewers. Amy was the last to enter covering the manhole as she went. Everyone was waiting for her, the moment she was with them the ground shook violently.

'Fuck that was close,' Sergeant Pierce said.

'No that was on top of us, that building we were in, no longer exists,' Amy told him.

'Where too?' Sienna asked her.

Amy turned to her, 'First...someone tell me what the fuck is going on.' 

Nathanael walked forward to check her head. 'Did you knock your head?' he asked.

'No, my head is fine,' Amy said starting to get angry.

'She can't remember the last four months,' Sienna told him.

Wolfgang joined them having finally been able to trace Amy's memories of her route. He pulled her into his arms and turned her around.

'We need to move,' he told the group.

'Our orders were to search and secure her,' Sergeant Peirce said.

'So you can lock her up?' Wolfgang growled.

'No. We have a Presidential order that Amy is to be protected. We are to disregard any orders conflicting with the orders that the President has given us, we have to get her to him.' he told Wolfgang.

'Then for now we are Allies,' Wolfgang said. 'I give the orders,' he growled.

'No...' Amy said. She started to run, everyone followed her. She took lefts and rights apparently at random but she was actually keeping them alive and getting them away from the small force of humans who were out of their minds with battle lust.

'Now while we are safe can someone tell me what is going on,' Amy demanded.

Sienna frowned. Rice stepped forward and shined a torch into her eyes. Amy jerked away and grabbed the torch. 

'Nothing is wrong with my head. I survived a plane crash without loosing my memory, you figure out the rest. Now someone tell me what is going on,' Amy glared directly at Wolfgang.

Wolfgang grabbed her shoulders. 'Too much to sum up in a moment,' he told her. He was beginning to feel that this wasn't the Amy he had woken up to this morning. He pulled her into his arms and yanked her shirt up, Sienna's and Nathanael's jaws dropped. The scars on her back were visible and the green markings she'd had for several months were not present. 'You are not my Amy,' he concluded.

Amy smiled, 'Now that we've concluded I'm not me can you tell me what is going on so I can try to prevent this from happening.'

'What do you remember last?' Wolfgang asked.

'Being undressed by Rhiannon and sleeping in a bed turned down by Mryddin,' Amy told him getting specific.

'Four months...you can act on all this, prevent it from happening,' Wolfgang concluded.

'What are you talking about?' Peirce demanded.

'I'm Ancient,' Amy told him, 'A time hopper, I'm four months behind you guys, I can stop it from getting to this,' Amy said but she honestly didn't know if she could pull this off, she didn't even quite understand what she was saying, what was a time hop for starters.

'Then we have to get you to the President,' he told her.

'I don't know how long I'll be here,' Amy said, she frowned, how did she know that, she didn't remember learning it so how did she know it. When she got back she would have some serious questions. If she got back, she thought to herself.

'I'll give you what I know but the president may have something more to add,' he told her, as long as Amy had what he knew there was still a chance that this could be stopped.

'We have about three minutes before we have to move, strip,' she told the Marines.

'Pardon?' Rice asked

'Strip, one of you is bugged,' Amy told them firmly.

They started to strip, Wolfgang and several others stripped and offered their clothes to the bashful humans. They took off their tags and left them with their clothes before pulling on the clothes that were offered to them. They went to pick up their guns.

'No leave them,' Amy told them.

'We need boots,' Rice told Amy.

Amy closed her eyes and sent her senses out, not really understanding what she was doing just following her instincts. 

'Army surplus store, follow me.' 

She opened her eyes and took them away from the bugged equipment. She took them to a ladder. Wolfgang climbed the ladder, and had a peek. He tossed the heavy metal disk away and climbed out. Pack members were next then the Marines. Amy walked up to a non-descript door and tore it from the hinges. They walked in while Sienna worked on the security system effectively turning it off. The Marines quickly helped themselves to what ever they needed. Amy glanced around.

Where is Gillian? She asked.

Wolfgang closed his eyes. Died trying to get you to safety.

Amy turned in Sienna's general direction. I will fix this, Amy told him.

I know. So here is what I know, Wolfgang said as his memories filled her mind.

~~~~*~~~~

Amy raced down a long hallway that lead to the bunker the President was in. She was completely surrounded by Pack and Marines. They had managed to get out of the city and hook up with another parliamentary Marine squad. They had all moved quickly when they realized how important it was to get Amy to the President now. Amy was escorted into the room, and she glanced around the room.

"Amy," Bob said as he saw her.

"We don't have long Bob," Amy told him sensing both danger and that she was running out of time on her hop.

'Pardon,' he replied.

'Look do you really need everything,' she sighed, she knew he did. 'Look I'm not the Amy you think I am, I'm a past Amy come forward,' she started to explain.

'How is that possible?' he asked.

'I'm actually considered to be Ancient not Were,' Amy told him, he gave her a confused look. 'Look for now all you need to know is that I can stop this but I have to know what to stop.'

'And then this never would have happened,' he concluded.

Amy shook her head, she didn't quite understand the complexities but she knew that somewhere the entire scenario would be played out. 'No it would have because I will remember it...look I only just found out I'm Ancient, I don't understand it all but I'll ask the moment I'm back, I'll involve them. I'll involve the Alpha's. I'll involve you too, but I need to...' Amy tuned to the door, 'Hurry... they are coming.' A wall of bodies was formed before the President and Amy, she was their best chance at stopping this.

Amy grabbed his head between her hands and took everything he knew and then some. The door burst open and bullets rained in from both sides. The Were stood still, taking the bullets to protect Amy long enough so she could do what she had to do. Amy released the President and turned. She watched people she knew fall. Sienna raced at a man, he emptied a clip into her chest but still she came on, he pulled out a sword and tried to sever her neck. Sienna dropped to the ground. Wolfgang roared and charged, his Pack following.

Tears ran down her face as her friends and people were cut down. Wolfgang fell back his neck severed enough to stop him but not to kill. Amy pulled him into her arms and pressed the wound together. A gun was pressed to her temple.

'DIE DEMON BITCH,' the man yelled as he squeezed the trigger.

~~*~~*~~*~~*~~

Amy flew from the bed startling Wolfgang. She held onto one of the posts as she threw up. Wolfgang was on his feet and at her side in moments. Rhiannon raced in having sensed Amy's panic. Amy finally finished dry reaching.

"What day is it?" she croaked out.

"Amy..." Wolfgang asked confused.

"What day is it?" Amy demanded again.

"Amy today is the day you found out I am your mother," Rhiannon told her beginning to suspect that Amy had her first time hop and it was not pretty.

"Then it hasn't happened" Amy said to herself. 

Her muscles gave out on her. Wolfgang scooped her into his arms before she collapsed into her own vomit. He sat her on the bed and knelt between her legs. Amy's muscles were mush.

"What hasn't happened Amy?" Wolfgang asked.

Tears ran down her face as she remembered watching Sienna die, she looked away from him as she remembered his torn body.

"Amy..." Wolfgang prompted.

"No Wolfgang let her process it," Rhiannon told him.

Wolfgang glared at her, "She's blocking me out, all I get is blood, lots of blood."

"Wolfgang, she's had no training." Rhiannon shook her head, she had never had to explain all this before and she knew she wasn't doing a good job of it. "Our abilities are granted to us by the fates, knowing danger, seeing and living the future, the past and much more. But it's a double-edged sword, the fates, the gods whatever you want to call them...it...they expect us to help them to alter events...try to lessen damage or to outright change events from happening, because they want a certain future to unfold. Amy just experienced a time hop." 

"She was in my arms the entire time," Wolfgang argued.

"Her body was with you, her mind was in the future. Her mind is now processing everything that she saw and learnt and is remembering that she was sent to change it. She's had no training, yet she's coping better then I did after my first hop, just let her mind adjust," Rhiannon told him. Wolfgang nodded and gathered Amy in his arms to just hold her as her mind adjusted.

Rhiannon sat behind Amy and rested her head on her shoulder. Amy's breathing started to calm.

"What's coming Amy?" Wolfgang asked gently.

Amy thought for long moments, "War," she said so quietly that Wolfgang almost misheard her.

****

Wolfgang watched Amy as she slept. The rest of the night had gone without incidence. Moments after her declaration Rhiannon had left and returned with Mryddin who forced her to drink something that he explained would keep her anchored unless the powers that be needed her to see something important about what they had already shown her. The powers that be firmly believed in one thing or crisis at a time. Amy rolled over and rubbed her face against his chest. There was a gentle knock on the door. Rhiannon walked in, she was carrying another drink for Amy. Wolfgang smiled at her as Rhiannon sat on the bed and put the drink down.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 06



"How did she sleep?" Rhiannon asked.

"Deeply but I think her dreams are reminding her of what she has to prevent. I think she watched Sienna die, she called out her name, and she also called out other names of people I don't know. I think they may have been humans. But things were jumbled I didn't understand much of her dreams," Wolfgang told her.

"Wait, you can see her dreams?" Rhiannon asked.

Wolfgang nodded, "I always have some connection with Amy, aware of her." He tapped his head. "That's the mates bond. When we sleep, if the dreams are troubling enough I will be aware of them, I will dream them but from her perspective. It doesn't happen often, but according to the elders and Nathanael even that is strange. So we've just chalked it up to her blood and left it at that."

"You aren't meant to understand her dreams, many of the things Amy knows are actually instincts, only another Ancient would understand completely," Rhiannon explained.

"Instincts...When Amy first learnt I was Were she started to chew through my library. When I took her as my mate she didn't have any problems with how she was meant to act, she just knew. Most humans never get being a Were until they've lived the life for a couple hundred years, but Amy gets it," Wolfgang tried to explain.

Rhiannon frowned as she thought about it, was it Ancient instinct or was it something else? She wished she knew just who it was she had linked up with to make Amy. There were so many things she wanted to ask the woman and she knew she wasn't alone.

Amy opened her eyes and yawned as she stretched. 

Rhiannon smiled, "Taliesin wants you to drink this, he thinks it might balance your energy a little." 

Rhiannon offered her a drink.

"I still have to shift today?" Amy asked

"No..." Rhiannon interrupted. "Everything has been sidelined, until we know what Amy dreamt about everything else waits." 

Wolfgang got out of bed and walked around the bed to pick Amy up. Rhiannon's jaw dropped as she looked over Wolfgang, granted he had been naked last night but she had been more concerned with Amy than to take in his form. No wonder Amy was always tired with such a potent example of maleness in her bed. Rhiannon didn't glance away, as Were weren't bothered with nudity. Wolfgang studied Rhiannon for a moment then smiled as he guessed her thoughts.

"Amy is not timid, as her mother you really should be at her pack introduction," Wolfgang said as he picked Amy up.

Amy smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck as he walked her into the bathroom. Rhiannon was stunned; she had never been invited to a pack introduction before. In fact to the best of her knowledge none of the Ancients had been invited to a pack introduction. Rhun may be mated to a Were but she wasn't a high ranking one so no introduction was needed. Amy, on the other hand, was mated to an Alpha, she had to be introduced to the pack. She had to be acknowledged and known. 

Rhiannon left them and went into the summer room. Everyone was waiting. 

Vivian turned to Rhiannon, "So she's awake."

Rhiannon nodded, "Wolfgang has bundled her into a shower."

Vivian studied her daughter, "You look pleased with yourself."

Rhiannon smiled, "I got invited to Amy's introduction to the pack." 

Taliesin smiled, "Remember everything you see," he said firmly.

Rhiannon nodded. Although the Ancients had lived incredibly long and knew much they actually knew very little of pack culture and ways. The packs and prides were secretive, necessary for self-preservation. Even Rhun whose mate was Were had not been invited in, his mate wasn't high ranking so he mattered little to the pack since he was not Were. Amy on the other hand was the Alpha's mate and therefore the Alpha bitch.

"Wolfgang also gave me an open invitation to his home," Rhiannon told them.

Mryddin smiled, "Then you will train her, she can't stay here..." 

Everyone turned as Amy walked into the room, carrying the cup Rhiannon had told her to drink. Wolfgang followed her in. Amy sat in a lounge, Wolfgang sat next to her and pulled her into his arms, he knew she was going to need the comfort.

"Worst case scenario," Amy said and turned to Wolfgang, "Backlash from the recent killings, that Senator who has been trying to push his Were registry for the last four years, he is going to start a war. Mass genocide."

Wolfgang closed his eyes with a pained look on his face. Worst case, it was more than a worst case it could mean their doom, humans were important, killing them off will not help the Were races.

"It will start in America but the backlash in the other territories will decimate the human population," Amy continued.

Wolfgang sighed, "How do we stop this Amy?"

"We started coming out too late, they didn't understand that we drastically out numbered them. During a protest rally the car I was in was attacked, the Were races for some reason were rallying around me. I was the focus of the attack, by this time it was too late to stop it but the President thinks that if we come out earlier..."

"Wait... the President?" Vivian asked.

Amy nodded, "Just before the blood bath, the President got his most elite Marines, those he knew were loyal and saw no reason for the blood bath, special orders, secure me at all costs and get me to him to negotiate a cease-fire. Only when Wolfgang finally realized I wasn't the Amy he woke up to that morning, he gave me everything he knew, hoping that I was going through a hop and could prevent it. He, the Marines and some of the pack got me to the President, who gave me everything he knew after he realized I was telling the truth. As that happened we were attacked, the others protected me, and the President, as he gave me everything he knew. They tried to kill me, bullet point blank range to the skull. I shifted and killed them all. Then I woke up."

Amy looked out the window, "I don't even feel sorry for what I did," Amy said absently.

"Amy, you haven't killed them yet," Wolfgang told her.

Amy got to her feet and walked to the window. "You don't understand I did kill them, in that reality I killed them. I watched people die to protect me long enough to get this knowledge so I can stop it but in that reality I killed sixty humans and I would do it again," Amy said angrily.

Rhiannon frowned, Ancients rarely got blood-thirsty but Amy had gone through it to an extreme. She wondered again about the other woman who helped sire her, what part did her blood play in Amy's behavior, if any. Amy looked out the window as she fought down the beast that lived within her. She kept focusing on one thought, that she could stop it all from happening. That thought kept her in control. She would prevent Rice's death; she would prevent all of their deaths.

She looked out the window. The energy from the ley line crossing was calling to her. Rhiannon walked up to her. "We all do things we don't like, the fates remind us constantly that nothing is free. Sometimes we are forced to watch those we love or come to care about die to give us extra incentive to correct the situation."

Amy nodded.

"It's never easy Amy, but you never would have been born if you couldn't handle it. The fates have chosen a path for you, but it's how you walk that path that will define you. We are all different, we have different beliefs, ideas and more but we are all the same and we stand together, your path for now is our path. You are not alone," Rhiannon told her and gathered Amy into her arms. Amy cried relieved she didn't have to figure this out on her own. When Amy calmed Rhiannon stroked the tears from Amy's eyes.

At a glance no one would have picked them to be mother and daughter. Rhiannon was tall with sandy brown hair that was wavy and she was very tanned. Rhiannon assumed that Amy had inherited her other mother's looks. Rhiannon tried to picture the woman but failed.

"The pack introduction..." Wolfgang said to himself wondering how he could get the word out sooner. 

Amy turned to him, "Pardon?"

"The pack introduction...we can use it to our advantage. As an Alpha the other Alphas have to come, normally they would send representatives, but I'm sure their elders were intrigued by you, which will make them much more inclined to come. The Alphas will come themselves and we can spread the word that way. If we warn them we can work together to prevent things from happening," he told her. 

"It's a global matter," Amy told them. "The Alphas have to be involved. They can organize protests, the sooner they understand there are more of us than them they'll know it's suicide," Amy concluded.

"Opening pack life, some Alphas won't like that," Taliesin said knowing the pack preferred privacy.

"They will have no choice, the only way to stop this is with a show of numbers. To show people we are not blood thirsty, that we live normal lives, just a little differently," Amy debated.

Wolfgang smiled pleased, "That is the reason the Were races will rally behind you because you speak the truth. It's time humans know they aren't as supreme as they think they are. It's time they learn to share, to work together, like we do."

Amy smiled, pleased that Wolfgang understood her reasoning, now she had to convince the Alphas. 

"Two birds one stone," Rhiannon blurted out. "Invite the president to the introduction."

Amy and Wolfgang cracked up laughing.

"You tell her," Wolfgang told Amy.

Amy blushed and pulled Rhiannon down to whisper into her ear, "The introduction is about them learning my scent and acknowledging I'm Wolfgang's."

Rhiannon pulled away and gave her a confused look.

"Never try to explain to someone who doesn't live pack life... Bastion's words," Amy explained, then pulled Rhiannon back to whisper in her ear, "Wolfgang will mate with me before everyone, during sessions the Alphas will approach and taste us," Amy explained.

Rhiannon went red, "Okay bad idea."

Wolfgang shook his head. "No, good idea we just won't invite him to the whole ceremony there is more to it than just what Amy told you, it lasts a week, talks, feasts and such. It's not often Alpha's find their mate, when they do everyone has to be informed and invited to meet the new Alpha. When power shifts to another Alpha they have to organize at least a video conference with the others so that the others know them, but mating is different, it's personal and more importantly if an Alpha chooses a mate it's because their mate can handle being Alpha. I will be challenged for the right to be Amy's mate, more so after the conference with the Alpha's," Wolfgang explained.

"Why?" Boadicea asked starting to get really interested in the complex culture.

"Because Amy made an impression, the moment they realized she spoke with wisdom and knowledge they started to look at her, when I informed them of the date of the introduction they all started to write down the date, they would wait for their formal invitations but Amy had their interest, they will make sure they are free for the introduction, they will come to meet her in person, to challenge me for the right to have her," Wolfgang told them.

"And if you loose..." Boadicea asked.

"I loose Amy to the victor, but I won't loose," Wolfgang told them confidently.

"And that's allowed? What about Amy's wishes?" Vivian asked trying to understand.

"It is allowed, survival of the strongest Vivian. If I cannot protect Amy then I have no right to her. Don't worry I've been challenged for her before, I won and I will win again, no one will take Amy from me," he told them with conviction, but they still didn't understand why.

Taliesin frowned, he never knew the Were races had such complicated rules. His frown deepened, it was however, those rules, which allowed them to live in peace, allowing the different types of Weres to mingle and even breed. It would take at least a lifetime to learn their ways, he concluded.

Rhiannon felt Amy start to tire. She sat her down, "That hop did nothing but destabilize your energies further."

Amy nodded, "I'll be okay, I've felt worst."

Rhiannon chuckled, "Funny, but I can believe that, how did you get the scars on your back."

"I have that answer," Mryddin said and grabbed the file then offered it to Rhiannon, "A plane crash." 

Amy smiled. "And that is how I met Wolfgang, he saved my life...well he pulled me out of the wreck and nursed me back to health."

"Fell in love the moment I saw her, she was covered in blood and I thought she was dying," Wolfgang said with a smile. 

Amy stood and walked across the room and she collapsed into his arms, Wolfgang nuzzled her neck.

"Scruffy mutt," Amy told him and tucked her head under his chin to get away from the bristles of his beard.

Wolfgang chuckled and pulled her tighter to his body. He rolled her onto her back beneath him and rubbed his face against her face. 

"Wolfgang cut it out," Amy protested and tried to push him away.

"Wolfgang let her go," Vivian said seriously concerned about her granddaughter, Wolfgang could easily crush Amy. Wolfgang loosened his hold and turned to Vivian.

"I would never hurt her," Wolfgang told them.

"No but you will wear her out," Rhiannon told him.

Wolfgang sighed and got up, he looked down at her and smiled, she was all disheveled, with a rash on her cheek from his stubble. Amy tugged her clothes back into place; she felt Wolfgang's arousal at her state.

"You would think me hot in burlap," Amy told him fiercely.

Wolfgang gave her a goofy smile and nodded. He sat up and pulled Amy back into his lap.

****

Amy woke, she checked the clock, midnight, she noted. She slid out of Wolfgang's arms and went to the bathroom. Once she was done she walked groggily out of the bathroom. She closed her eyes and stretched. She felt the call from the ley line crossing. She didn't bother getting dressed, she just found a way out of the manor. She walked across the open field, feeling the pulse of power. The chill of the night rose goose bumps on her body, but she ignored them. She walked into the stone circle, The Kings Men, she remembered.

She felt the power surge, welcoming her into the circle. Amy walked forward until she was about in the middle. She sat on the dew covered grass. The mystic energy of the place went up as Amy closed her eyes and opened herself to the call of the energy.

**

Rhiannon jerked awake, she had felt an intense surge of energy. She jumped to her feet and raced to Amy and Wolfgang's room. Wolfgang had just jerked awake and was glancing around for Amy.

"Where's Amy?" She asked.

Wolfgang got out of bed and shifted into his hybrid form. He sniffed the air to locate her scent. Rhiannon watched him stunned, she had seen Were in Hybrid from before, none were ever as large as Wolfgang was. 

They were quickly joined by the other Ancients, and Vivian's jaw dropped as she studied Wolfgang, the other Ancients did the same. Wolfgang was not someone to be messed with, and they could now understand his confidence. Wolfgang in his hybrid form stood over eight feet tall, and four foot wide at the shoulders. His muscles rippled with power, long deadly claws tipped his hands. A massive wolf head sat on powerful neck muscles. They got out of his way when he went near them.

Wolfgang followed Amy's scent around the room for several moments but quickly he found a fresh scent trail out of the room and then out of the manor towards the ley line crossing. A bright light appeared from the circle. Wolfgang ran to make sure he was there to defend Amy.

**

Amy didn't notice the strange blue light that came from the circle. She was busy experiencing the strange energy that was pulsing around and through her. She also didn't notice the specks of white light dancing across her skin leaving smudges of fluorescent green in the form of a language. She felt this overwhelming sense of approval and joy from the energies that surrounded her. But she couldn't understand why and the energy could not explain it to her.

The energy started to pulse, matching the pulsing of her heart. She could almost hear the faint howl of a wolf in the energy but it was quickly replaced with a sound that she could recognize but not explain. She also felt as if there was someone or something in the energy, taunting her with some piece of knowledge that for the moment remained out of her reach or understanding.

She felt tingles beneath her skin, as the energy entered her. She felt the weakness burn out of her system as the blue light finally vanished. The little specks of white light that had marked her body stuck around. Wolfgang ran into the circle, the others were behind him, he skid to a stop.

Amy? He asked.

Amy turned to him and smiled. Wolfgang went to approach her but his ears picked up sounds of cartilage popping. Amy leant forward so that she was on her hands and knees as her body shifted. Wolfgang watched as this shift went much smoother then her first shift. Her body lengthened and expanded. Hands and feet transformed into paws as her arms and legs lengthened to match her rapidly growing body. Muscles shifted as fur appeared and her tail grew from her spine. Finally her head shifted.

She stretched her body and yawned as her teeth grew. She sat and started to groom herself. Wolfgang quickly slid into his wolf form and approached her, ears up and tail erect. Amy stopped grooming herself and lifted a paw. Wolfgang pressed his chest to hers. Amy nuzzled her face into his neck, she then leapt back and dropped her forequarters so that her rear was in the air. Wolfgang recognized the playful pose. He copied her and barked. Amy yowled her response and jumped to the side and retook the pose.

Rhiannon leant against a stone and watched the two massive predators play. Wolfgang was big but Amy was bigger, yet they were gentle with their tussles. Amy pulled free and approached the Ancients. She sniffed the air to catch their scents. Rhiannon held still as Amy pressed her nose to her skin. Rhiannon didn't react as Amy gently knocked her down. Amy settled above her and started to groom Rhiannon. Rhiannon tried to get away from the rough tongue, her fingers burrowed into the thick mane of fur around Amy's neck.

"Amy cut it out," Rhiannon protested. 

Wolfgang grabbed Amy's scruff and gave it a gentle tug. Amy let Wolfgang pull her off Rhiannon. Rhiannon sat up and looked at Amy with surprise. Wondering why and where the blue light had come from and why Amy had been compelled to come out here. Wolfgang tugged her back toward the house. Amy followed him leaving the Ancients to their own devices.

When they were happy that both Amy and Wolfgang were back in the house they begin to talk.

"Did you see how big she was?" Noah said trying to remain quiet.

"Our abilities are controlled by natural law, when we shift we can only shift into true animals in both shape and size." Arthur said just as surprised as everyone else.

Everyone turned to Rhiannon. 

"What the fuck did you give birth to?" Robin asked.

Rhiannon glared at him. "I haven't given birth to her yet you moron," she retorted.

"Cut it," Mryddin snapped.

"Yes..." Taliesin added, "All we can do is support Amy, she is one of us, no matter how big or strange she is, she is still Ancient..."

"Part Ancient," Arthur interrupted.

Everyone glared at him.

"Part or full she is Ancient and needs us, just as we need her, if we are to unravel the riddle that she is we need to accept her as she is...She does," Taliesin continued, before walking off.

****

Rhiannon walked into Amy and Wolfgang's room around midmorning, she was carrying two new drinks for Amy. Amy was still asleep, Wolfgang however was awake and studying Amy's body. Rhiannon walked over to him and put the drinks down on the bedside table. Rhiannon turned and jerked with surprise at the fluorescent green markings on her body. Amy mumbled and opened her eyes.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 06



"What?" Amy complained groggily.

"Why did you go out to the stone circle?" Wolfgang demanded as he pulled her into a sitting position.

Amy shrugged, "I don't know...I woke up, went to the bathroom, then I stretched a little, the energy was pulsing, calling to me."

Wolfgang grabbed her shoulders. "How can I protect you if you go running off?" He felt his beast rear up. His arms shifted and his body grew. He managed to rein in his control, barely.

"Wolfgang there was no danger," Amy tried to reassure him.

Wolfgang growled, "How could you be so sure, you're weak..."

Amy grabbed his forearm and applied pressure. Wolfgang winced and released her.

"Now that we've decided I'm not weak..." Amy said anger flashing in her eyes.

"I didn't mean it like that Amy," Wolfgang gave her a pained look, "I meant your weakness, how you can barely keep your eyes open, barely move." He gathered her into his arms. Amy glared at him but allowed him to hold her. "You scared me last night," he explained.

"My instincts said safe Wolfgang. I don't intentionally try to put myself in danger," Amy said then frowned as she saw her arm. She turned to look at her other arm then wormed her way out of Wolfgang's arms and walked naked to the full-length mirror.

Her body was covered in some kind of writing. She turned around and glanced to her back, the markings were there as well. She lifted her hair, the markings started at the back of her neck just before the hairline. The marks then ran uniformly down her spine and finished with a symbol that nestled between the cheeks of her arse. Finer lines linked the strange lettering together and wove their own pattern around the letters. Amy also noticed that the letters branched across the back of her shoulders. Her back was covered similarly to her front in swirling marks; the only letters on her front were just above her bikini line and wrapped around her hips to join the lettered marks on her back. 

"When did this happen?" Amy asked.

"I think the little dots of white light may have been responsible for the markings. Not to worry they should wash off," Rhiannon told her. 

Amy nodded and was in the shower moments later to start scrubbing.

"Can you get her to drink these before she comes out?" Rhiannon asked.

Wolfgang nodded and followed Amy into the shower. He nuzzled against her neck. Amy jerked away.

"Scruffy mutt," She told him.

"Amy..." Wolfgang pleaded. He wanted to help her, to touch her, to make love to her.

"Shave," Amy replied as she used a scrubbing sponge to remove the bright green marks from her arms. Wolfgang hopped out of the shower and quickly started to shave. When he was done he checked then he hopped back into the shower. He grabbed another scrubbing sponge and poured some shower gel onto it and started to scrub her back. Amy moaned at the rough pressure on her back, it was delightful. Amy's moan made his blood sing and his manhood harden. He rubbed a little harder as not all the marks on her back were coming off. The letters and the thin joining swirls were not leaving. Amy's skin quickly went red from the scrubbing.

"Amy they aren't coming off. Just leave them," Wolfgang told her and pulled her back to his body his erection poked her lower back. Wolfgang's right arm snaked around her body to mould her breast as he leant down and started to nibble on her ear. Amy turned around in his arms. Wolfgang pressed her against the tiles preventing her from kneeling and taking him in her mouth.

"Not this time," Wolfgang told her. He lifted her up keeping her back pressed against the tiles. Amy's legs wrapped around his hips and she arched her body wanting him to take her. Wolfgang growled and captured her lips, kissing her deeply, Amy moaned and dug her fingernails into his shoulders. Wolfgang growled against her lips and lifted her hips higher.

He changed his mind about how he wanted to take her. He turned her around, and used his left arm under her arms to hold her up. He pressed her against the tiles and nuzzled against her neck, he lifted her a little higher and jerked his hips forward. He groaned as he slid between her folds, he shifted his angle as he went again to try to impale her.

There was a knock on the shower screen. Wolfgang growled, as he wanted to join their bodies, to cum deeply within her. He pressed his hips forward ignoring whoever was trying to interrupt. The head of his shaft popped into her, Amy groaned and wiggled her hips, she wanted more. Rhiannon opened the shower screen and blushed as she watched Wolfgang slide a decent piece of maleness into her daughter's body.

Rhiannon coughed trying to draw their attention.

Wolfgang growled again, he ignored Rhiannon, he used his body to pin Amy to the tiles as he thrust away. Amy moaned and tried to help by moving her hips. Wolfgang's free hand cupped her mound and started to stroke her clit. Rhiannon jerked out of the stall, everyone will just have to wait until they were done.

Wolfgang thrust demandingly into her, listening to her groan and claw at the tiles. His teeth sunk into her neck as he growled. His finger between her legs sped up with his thrusting. Amy felt blood run down her neck, then she felt her body clamp down on him, and she cried out as she climaxed. Wolfgang joined her moments later.

Wolfgang released her neck and panted. "Sorry," he apologized.

Amy chuckled, "What on earth for?" She asked as she tried to get her breath back.

"For not making it last longer," Wolfgang told her. He gently slid free of her and sat her on her feet. He gently stroked her body.

"I don't mind." Amy turned around. "You showed me how much you needed me." 

Wolfgang hugged her then pulled her back under the water to clean up. Ten minutes later they were seated with the others.

"I really wish you had let us look at the writing Rhiannon described," Taliesin told her.

"Oh bloody heck Taliesin it didn't all come off," Amy told him. She jumped to her feet and pulled her shirt off. She turned around and loosened her pants letting them slide down a little to expose the rest of the markings.

"We couldn't get these off no matter how hard we scrubbed," Wolfgang told them. Taliesin grabbed a digital camera and started to take photos. Amy pushed her thong down so he could get the last symbol that was nestled in the crack of her arse. He then took the photos of the letters that followed her bikini line around her hips and back around to meet with the letters on her back. Taliesin lifted her hair to get the last few marks that went up her neck. Once he had the last of the photos he stepped back and let Amy dress.

Mryddin jumped forward. "A moment please, I want a sample of your skin, it's not paint, maybe it's a dye or even tattoos." He told her as he took the first few layers of skin that included normal skin and marked skin; he put the skin in a jar. 

"Thanks Amy," Mryddin told her.

"Wait, may I just have a look?" Cleopatra asked.

Amy shrugged her answer; she didn't really care. Cleopatra walked forward to study the language. She tilted her head.

"It's like nothing I've seen before, it looks like some kind of cross between a rune of some sort and a weird kind of hieroglyph." Cleopatra stepped away letting Amy dress. She turned to Taliesin, "Can I get copies of those, I want to try to decipher them. I only wish I had a key, some kind of known symbol that I could work from."

Amy pulled her clothes on then walked over to a bookshelf and started to look at spines.

"Cleopatra is our cryptologist," Mryddin explained to Amy.

"One of the best, she's better than computers, sees patterns programs can't," Arthur said as he shifted to get a better seat.

Guinevere glared at the man she had once been married to, "No she just takes an interest in languages, she takes time to learn each language she comes across, she doesn't just implant the illusion she's speaking their language when in fact she's just projecting it into peoples thoughts."

"Shut up Guinevere," Arthur snapped.

"Screw you," Guinevere snapped back.

"Enough," Noah said loudly. "You think you would both be over it by now..."

"Over it... I've been portrayed as the ultimate betraying harlot..." Guinevere spat out.

"And I an idiot..." Arthur interrupted.

"NO HISTORY," Everyone besides Guinevere and Arthur shouted.

"What's done is done." Taliesin said trying to calm the two down.

"The story is wrong..." Guinevere stated.

"It is just a human bedtime story leave it," Wolfgang spoke out.

Guinevere and Arthur glared at him but kept their mouths shut. Taliesin smiled at Wolfgang.

Boadicea frowned as she watched Amy. Since meeting her, besides last night, Amy had always been tired, now she looked alert and full of energy. "Is it just me or is Amy bouncy?" She asked. 

Everyone watched her surprised. "What ever happened last night corrected her weakness," Vivian said in awe.

Rhiannon watched her daughter, wondering not for the first time what her daughter was.

Amy smiled at Gillian as he took their luggage. He smiled at her as he watched her walk with a bounce to her step. 

"It's good to see you back to yourself," he greeted her as he put their luggage on a trolley. 

"It's good to be myself," Amy replied with a smile.

Rhiannon handed her luggage to Gillian at Wolfgang's gesture. Gillian took her bag and studied her for a moment. He glanced at Wolfgang but put the case on the trolley he had brought. When it was packed up Bastion took the trolley away and to one of the waiting cars.

"Um…before you leave this came," he handed Wolfgang a small velvet covered package. Wolfgang smiled and grabbed it.

"This is you're…engagement ring?" Wolfgang said with a question. Wolves didn't give rings to their mates as a sign of their bond but Amy was different so he had organised a ring. He had taken days designing the ring himself as everything he had seen at the Jewelers seemed so impersonal, almost as if it was manufactured love, not true love. He opened the box and offered it to her. 

Amy smiled up at him and turned to the ring. She smiled pleased that Wolfgang hadn't gotten her a big flashy ring with a huge stone. It was a band of platinum that was delicately covered with hand crafted miniature roses. Wolfgang took her hand and gently slid the ring on; he studied the effect and smiled as he stroked her hand. 

"That looks good on you," Wolfgang commented.

Amy smiled, "Thank you for not getting me something big and flashy."

Wolfgang frowned, "Was I meant to?" he asked, suddenly afraid that he had done something wrong. He knew very little about human culture, he knew they dated, that they liked to get to know one another before mating, they gave rings to the ones they made a serious commitment to but after that human behavior baffled him as much as Were behavior baffled humans.

Rhiannon gripped his shoulder, "Engagement rings are personal Wolfgang. Some people want big and flashy because they think that shows how much their partner is willing to pay for them, to be with them. But you know Amy isn't into big and flashy, so you looked for something that was Amy. I still bet you paid a mint for it," Rhiannon guessed wisely.

Wolfgang nodded, "But not nearly as much as I paid the pack jeweler for her collar," he told Rhiannon.

Amy smiled at Rhiannon's bemused face, "Collar, necklace, choker, something worn around the neck that will survive the change. Wolves call it a collar; it marks the Alpha pair. Other mates don't wear a collar, they normally give chains worn around the waist that will also survive the change. I paid a mint for the one I had made for him," Amy told her and went to walk off.

Gillian stopped her, "I should warn you before you get out of here and into the mess. We had to do some creative lying to explain why you wanted the president to come to the introduction. Since he knew your father Amy we've been playing the whole wedding thing. It actually works well to explain why we have so many people coming."

"So he is coming?" Amy asked.

Gillian nodded, "Sienna delivered the message personally. She just got back from giving him a brief run down on the Alpha's and on some behavioral tendencies we have. We've told him we want this kept quiet; he actually made the suggestion to call it a wedding. She's in the limo you can debrief her yourself."

Amy nodded. 

"So…explain mess," Wolfgang asked.

Gillian winced, "There are about a hundred people with camera's out there," he explained and hoped he wasn't going to be hit. 

"Why?" Wolfgang asked.

"We've been playing this as a wedding between you and Amy. So…" Gillian started to explain.

"You mean everyone finally figured Amy and I are together and are wondering how we managed to keep it so quiet for so long," Wolfgang supplied.

Gillian nodded, "Don't worry, we've tripled security because of The President but we've called in some help from Shia, he willingly offered two hundred of his best to help guard the manor. We got the same offer from Dover and Langdon. Six hundred extra guards on top of the five hundred we've called in should work well in keeping the press away."

Wolfgang nodded, "You ride with us. Did you bring the maps?" Wolfgang asked as he stepped around Amy to shield her as they walked out. Gillian stepped beside Rhiannon to shield her. Five men formed a V to make a path through the people jostling for a good picture and calling out questions. The men held the media hounds away as Wolfgang bundled Amy into the limo. Gillian then bundled Rhiannon in; Wolfgang was next then Gillian.

Police cleared a path for them to leave and held the press back to prevent them from following. The men who had cleared a path piled into the mini van that their luggage was in and followed them. Amy moved to sit with Sienna.

"So…tell me everything. How did he react to the invitation?" Amy asked.

Sienna smiled, "He was surprised. I mean who wouldn't be, he's human and he has been invited to a pack gathering. I did inform him that he couldn't go to everything because he was not Were but the purpose of the invite is to talk about recent grumbles, to involve him in Were decision making. He seemed to know what I was talking about," Sienna said with a shrug, she had after all used Amy's exact words.

Amy smiled, "Good. Bastion has informed me via Anna that all the Alpha's have responded and they are coming."

Sienna nodded, "Three hundred and sixty six Alphas in the one house." Sienna turned her attention to Rhiannon who was listening quietly. "Hi, I'm Sienna," Sienna held her arm out.

"Rhiannon." Rhiannon took her hand and shook it.

"You're not Pack," Sienna stated.

Rhiannon nodded, "I'm Ancient."

Amy lent over to Sienna, "Rhiannon is my biological mother, well one of them."

Sienna's jaw dropped, "Ancient, you're Ancient," she said in surprise.

"Part Ancient. They haven't figured out what the other half of me is yet," Amy told her.

Sienna studied her, "They fixed your weakness," she said pleased.

"I fixed my weakness," Amy corrected.

"The Ley line did," Rhiannon reminded her.

Amy rolled her eyes, "How are the sleeping arrangements coming?"

Sienna smiled, "Almost complete, the two barns have been refitted giving us an extra seventy rooms. All of the sitting rooms have been converted into bedrooms. Becky has given up her room and is sharing with Bastion. Several of the storage rooms in the basement have been converted to bedrooms, we thought about setting the box up as a room but Roberto is bringing several of the women from the disbanded pack because they don't feel safe, including the previous pack leaders mate so the box is theirs. We've added new locks and they will have the only keys. The two smaller libraries and Wolfgang's office have been converted to bedrooms. So all up we have…three hundred and seventy something rooms."

"How?" Amy asked surprised.

"Some of the larger rooms have been divided up into smaller rooms. The long gallery gave us eight rooms. Considering the Manor has sixty bedrooms, all with sitting rooms, three libraries, four offices, the media room, two grand sitting rooms, the ten rooms in the basement, and the ten rooms in the attic. Lets see, that's 183 in the actual house, plus the 70 we've gotten from the barns and the 5 outer guest houses, that's another 50 rooms…that's not right…" Sienna started to re run her mental calculation.

"You forgot the stables…the horses have been moved to another of the packs holdings and converted. That plus the stable hands quarters give us the other seventy rooms we needed," Bastion told her.

Sienna turned to Amy, "We've been organising this since Wolfgang decided to take you as a mate. Bastion decided to plan for a worst case scenario. This has been in the works since you were still bed ridden and recovering from the plane…" 

Amy stopped Sienna and turned to Wolfgang, "You were very confident in yourself," She told him dryly.

"I'm the Alpha, we always get what we want," Wolfgang told her smugly.

"What if I didn't want you?" Amy asked.

"I would have kept chipping away at you until you fell for me," Wolfgang told her.

"And if that failed," Amy asked.

Wolfgang shifted uneasily, "I wouldn't have let it fail," he told her. 

Amy moved and sat in his lap. Wolfgang hugged her tightly. 

"I'm glad you wouldn't have given up on me," She told him.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 07



"They did not deserve it Wolfgang, they did not deserve to be reborn. They did not deserve to be treated with respect after what we saw," Roberto stated. "What did you do with the rogues?" Roberto asked.

"Killed them and left their bodies to rot," Wolfgang said evenly.

"You did the right thing and I did the right thing, even though we are better men than them, it needed to be done. They couldn't be allowed to be reborn to recommit the same crimes. Let their souls and beasts be trapped by their intact bones. Our women are safe and will be safe," Roberto said to make sure both were safe from the guilt.

"What about the last one, the one supporting Electra?" Wolfgang asked.

"Her mother, Susanna," Roberto said, "We had to tear Demetrio from her, he was choking the life out of her. She hasn't left Electra's side."

Wolfgang nodded, "I'll get Nathanael to look at them."

Sienna joined them with The President behind her. 

"Ah President Ashford welcome," Wolfgang said as he held out his hand, "I'm Wolfgang."

"Please just call me Bob," he said as he shook Wolfgang's hand.

"Okay Bob. This is Roberto, he is the Alpha of an Italian pack," Wolfgang introduced.

Bob offered his hand to Roberto. Roberto cast Wolfgang a surprised look and shook Bob's hand.

"Wolfgang, you invited The President of the United States to a pack introduction?" Roberto asked.

"For a reason Roberto. You'll find out tomorrow. I'm afraid I can't tell you yet, but it is important Roberto, it's a worst case scenario prevention," Wolfgang explained.

Roberto nodded, "Knew it had to be big if an Ancient is involved. Okay I'll help." He turned to Bob, "Forgive me, once you are used to being hidden, being known is a little hard." 

"I wish I could say I understood but I don't," Bob said honestly.

"I appreciate your honesty. How deeply do you want to involve yourself in Amy's introduction?" Roberto asked.

"To be honest I don't even understand what you mean by introduction. I want to see Were life but I know some things will be beyond me and my understandings," Bob said with a shrug. "I'll trust your judgement in the matter."

Roberto nodded. A large bell started to be rung. 

"Dinner," Wolfgang said pleased. He walked them around the building. "I believe there are name tags, but I know you are both at my table anyway." He wove through the tables and up to the head table. Amy was already there with several Alpha's and their mates.

"Hello Bob," Amy greeted him with a hug.

"Amy long time no see," Bob said although he noted a few looks of disapproval. "Amy's father was my friend I watched her grow up," he explained.

"Still as a friend of her fathers…" Grey-hawk begun.

"Guys…he is human, I am greeting him in a human way," Amy said cutting them off. "Give him slack, he is not Were, he doesn't know or understand Were customs."

Grey-hawk went red as Amy glared at him. Her eyes roamed over the others, and they looked away. Rhiannon chuckled as she watched Amy assert herself.

"Now can we all sit," Amy said.

Everyone nodded and took their spots by behind their chair. Sienna leant in to whisper in Bob's ear, "Alpha's sit as one for they are all of equal rank, you sit when they sit."

A bell was rung and everyone sat. Food was brought out in steady streams, as were drinks. Bob listened for most part trying to get an understanding.

"Amy, what do they mean by challenges?" Bob asked.

"Okay…Wolfgang is Alpha right," Amy started to explain.

Bob nodded. 

"Okay when an Alpha chooses a mate no matter what they first were, he has that mate to himself for a month, then after the month the mate is introduced," Amy continued to explain.

Bob nodded again that he was following.

"When this happens it is the right of other Alphas or who ever thinks they can beat Wolfgang to challenge him for his right to me. If they think they could better protect me than Wolfgang can they can challenge him. Lets just say it's survival of the fittest. Mates are meant to be cherished and protected because they are the carriers of the next generation," Amy said, she may have over simplified a few points but that was the general idea.

Shia turned to Bob, "She over simplified but basically that is what the challenges are all about; Wolfgang must prove he is worthy to have Amy. Worthy to have a mate, that is why most mate before becoming Alpha. Once the challenges on Wolfgang have finished Amy will be challenged for the right to bare Wolfgang's children."

"Wait I am assuming that the challenges happen in Were form right?" Bob asked.

Everyone nodded.

"But Amy is human," Bob said.

Amy shook her head, "No Bob, Mitchell and Jacquelyn were my adopted parents, it took some hunting but we found that I am Ancient. But even if I was human, Wolfgang could have turned me."

"Okay and how does one become turned?" Bob asked.

"By being bitten during mating," Amy supplied.

Bob rubbed his face, "Wait… let me see if I have this right. First Wolfgang has to mate you then he gets challenged for his right to be your mate." 

Everyone nodded.

His frowned deepened, "Am I the only one who doesn't get that?"

"No I didn't," Rhiannon told him. "But I'm not Were."

"Wouldn't it be easier to challenge Wolfgang before any emotional bond is formed?" Bob asked.

Shia smiled, "A long time ago that was how things happened, but we had to change the rules when Were started finding their mates in the human population. Back then everyone was challenged for their mate, but the Elders and Alpha's decided to do away with it as it was leading to lots of fighting. The only ones not exempt from the rule have always been the Alphas, they fought for their mates but they only get challenged by people of equal rank, by other Alpha's."

Bob turned to Amy with a confused face, "I still don't understand why."

"Humans made the order get swapped," Amy explained, "Beyond popular belief, Were don't just take their mates against their will, rape is a crime punishable by death. Both parties have to be willing. Turning a human against their will is also a crime punishable by death, so if a Were chooses a human mate it is their choice to be turned. If they choose to be turned it takes a while until they shift. The body has to change."

Bob nodded he was following.

"Now if that person was mating an Alpha that person is given all the time in the world to make up their mind, they could choose not to be turned in which case there would be no introduction as they wouldn't really be joining pack life," Amy continued to explain.

Roberto and the others listened liking the way Amy simplified complex rules and customs so that Bob could follow.

"But if that person decided to be turned then they are accepting pack life. Still they are given time, this world is new to them. The moment they experience their first shift however their time is up, they have one month to notify the Alphas of the introduction and one month before they are fully immersed in pack life. Up until this point they are kept away only going as deep into pack life so as to learn the laws and what is socially acceptable," Amy took a deep breath. 

"Now that the person is Were the lore kicks in. It is any Alpha's right to challenge Wolfgang; the reasoning is that as Alpha, his mate would have to be able to handle also being Alpha and therefore a catch for the Alpha who can protect that mate. Not everyone is capable of being Alpha. So first Wolfgang is challenged, if he manages to fight off all rivals it means he is strong enough to protect his mate. It is then my responsibility to prove that I am worthy to bare his children."

"By fighting," Bob stated.

"Yes, survival of the fittest," Shia answered.

Roberto turned to Amy, "You should write a book. You managed to put that whole complicated affair into something that could be understood."

"So you can shift Amy?" Bob asked.

Amy nodded, "But I'm Ancient so…"

"What are Ancients?" Bob asked.

Everyone turned to Amy.

"Don't look at me, I only just found out ask my mother," Amy said and turned to Rhiannon. Everyone copied her.

"We are complicated," Rhiannon stated simply.

"And secretive," Shia said.

"And annoying," Grey-hawk stated.

"Complicated…down right impossible," Roberto stated, "But hot," he slid in.

Rhiannon turned to him, "I'm sorry Roberto if you think I'm in anyway interested in you…the reason I keep glancing in your direction is because the woman who keeps serving us is more my type."

Roberto held up his hands admitting defeat, "Pity, but I appreciate the way you worded that."

Rhiannon smirked, "I have learnt over time how to be tactful. Over three thousand years tend to do that."

"So Bob, how deep do you want to immerse yourself?" Wolfgang asked.

Bob turned to Rhiannon, "How deep are you going?"

Rhiannon smiled, "Deep but I've seen a lot and nothing really shocks me."

Shia held up his hands, "If he doesn't like something he can leave, everything you do here Bob is optional, we expect nothing of you but an open mind."





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 07



Amy snorted and walked away, as Jessa was dragged from the ring by her father.

Everyone who had not seen her in beast form was stunned. Amy was bigger than Wolfgang. They watched as Amy sat and groomed herself. Some found the whole process interesting, clearly her head was a wolf but she groomed herself like a cat, it actually took them several moments to realize that Amy was mixed.

Roberto walked over to Wolfgang, "What is she?" Roberto asked.

"Part Ancient, we still don't know what the rest of her is," Wolfgang answered.

Amy shifted back into her human form. Her hair covered her face slightly; the green markings that marked her body pulsed and glowed. Amy flicked her hair out of her face and walked towards Wolfgang her markings continued to pulse. Amy stopped a few steps from him and waited.

The elder stepped into the ring. He held up his hands to silence the murmuring, "Does any refute the worthiness of either Wolfgang or Amy?"

No one spoke, Wolfgang was worthy as was Amy, even if they didn't know exactly what she was they could see she would be good for their people.

"Then so be it," he said and then left the ring. 

People moved forming a path that led to a stone alter where Wolfgang was meant to mate Amy. Engraved on the heavy legs that supported the obsidian alter were the names of every Alpha and their mate of the pack for the last two thousand years. When the pack moved here early in the 1700's they had brought the precious piece of history with them. Amy's and Wolfgang's names would be added in the morning. 

Wolfgang approached Amy. He walked around her once then scooped her up and flung her onto his shoulder. There was a chorus of howling and roaring with his actions. Wolfgang gently returned Amy to her feet before the altar.

Many Alphas were stripping getting ready to shift; mated Alpha's pulled their mates close. Those who were lucky would sire cubs tonight.

Amy stepped closer to Wolfgang; her eyes were level with the bottom edges of Wolfgang's pecks. Amy went onto her toes and licked his chest.

Wolfgang growled gently as he ran his fingertips up her arms making Amy shiver pleasantly. He then gently stroked his hand down her chest, a fingertip circled her nipple while the other ran down her side. Amy quivered in delight beneath his touches, she moaned gently. He slid his hands back up and rested them on her shoulders. Amy dropped to her knees before him.

Amy started to nibble at his maleness coaxing it into hardness. She used one hand to support her body against his; the other she used to inflame is maleness. Amy glanced up to watch him once she had him standing proud.

Wolfgang's eyes were closed; he was doing his best to keep control. Amy smirked and ran her teeth gently along his shaft. When she got to the tip she engulfed it, gently using her teeth in the way she knew drove him wild. One of Wolfgang's hands fisted her hair as she sucked him. 

Wolfgang jerked her head free before she could push him to the edge. Wolfgang knew how quickly he could cum when Amy used her lips and teeth on him. He pulled her to her feet and lifted her onto the altar. He released her hair and leant over her, smelling her neck. He felt his wolf rush forward; he held it back, barely.

He knew he couldn't let his wolf loose, not yet, not until Amy was ready. He nibbled at her throat and moved his way down. He didn't care if the watching Alpha's grew impatient with his slow progress. His lips travelled down between her collar bones, Amy lent back supporting her upper body with her arms. Wolfgang smirked and lent further down taking her left nipple between his lips.

Amy lent her head back and sighed the moment his warm lips had surrounded her nipple. Amy panted gently as his teeth bit down causing a responding tug in her womanhood. Amy wished she could thread her fingers through his hair and encourage him to pay attention to her other breast. Wolfgang smirked as he used his tongue to flick her nipple before releasing that nipple and turning to the other.

Amy squirmed as his hot tongue flicked out to lap at the other nipple. He then ignored it and his lips travelled down her body. Amy growled gently, she wanted him to go back to her nipple that begged to be sucked. Wolfgang ignored her protest, he wanted to get her as ready as he could but he knew his beast side, which was the side that would win tonight, was getting impatient.

He pushed her legs further open and lent down to her neatly trimmed bush. He took a deep breath and growled. Before Amy could react to his growl his tongue had dipped into her moist folds. Amy moaned as his tongue pressed against her clit. He spread her open giving him more access to her womanhood.

He moved quickly knowning his beast was getting furious about being denied, this wasn't really about Wolfgang and Amy making love, it was about the wolf taking his mate in front of others, of staking his claim to outsiders. Amy was his and he was not going to be denied his mate. Amy moaned as he worked her, getting her juices flowing.

Wolfgang pulled away and blinked, he fought with his other half, if the wolf had his way Amy would get hurt, the wolf wouldn't have meant to hurt her, it would just happen. Wolfgang took a deep breath, the wolf was close, he knew how the wolf thought about Amy, in his own way he cared for her but tonight he was beyond normal thoughts, there were too many rivals near her, he wanted Amy sealed to him in every way before someone tried again to take her. 

Amy could feel the war going on in Wolfgang's mind.

I'm going to try for hybrid, I'll have more control. He warned her.

It's okay Wolfgang... I can handle it. Amy told him although she knew deep down that this would hurt; the last time she had tangled with his Hybrid form they had taken time to arouse her to the point where his penetration was welcome even though there was pain. Wolfgang had tried his best at arousing her but his other side wanted her now. This time she was just going to have to bear the pain.

Wolfgang grabbed her hips hard and flipped Amy onto her stomach, he growled loudly fighting with himself, some Alphas who thought they were within striking range moved back, sensing that Wolfgang's wolf was on the verge of violence. Two deep breaths had the wolf calm again, he was still adgitated but he didn't feel crowded anymore.

Wolfgang leant down and licked Amy's spine across the pulsing marks. He used one hand to open Amy's legs, he then stepped up to her. His Wolf fought Wolfgang for control, Wolfgang didn't relent, he offered his wolf a compromise which he accepted. Wolfgang howled and let his body shift into his hybrid form.

He was answered by the other Alphas. His claws dug into her hips drawing a small amount of blood, he growled and tried to thrust forward but in his hybrid from he was too tall. He barred his teeth starting to get angry that he wasn't getting want he wanted. Amy pushed herself onto her hands and knees giving herself the needed height.

Several Alpha's feared for Amy, feared that Wolfgang would tear her in half.

Wolfgang ran his tongue over her skin as he positioned himself at her entrance. He rocked his hips back preparing to take her. Amy extended her neck offering herself to him. Wolfgang took her neck between his teeth as he rocked his hips forward. Amy cried out as he forced himself into her. The smooth surface of the altar meant that Amy was pushed forward by his force and spared some pain.

Amy took several deep breaths then dropped her head and waited for the next thrust, she knew her body would adjust she just had to wait. Wolfgang didn't thrust he pulled her back onto his manhood slowly. He growled gently around her neck as he felt her open for him, Amy moaned in pleasure as he slowly speared into her. Once he was happy that her body was accepting his he started to thrust. He made sure that with every thrust he would pull on her hips preventing her from sliding forward on the smooth surface.

Amy panted and cried out on every thrust, it was both pain and pleasure. Wolfgang released her neck and panted against her skin as he finally started to press his knot against her opening. He slid a hand around her and started to stroke the little bundle of nerves that would inflame her and add to her pleasure. He kept his thrusting up; only it was shorter strokes, keeping his knot firmly against her opening, slowly stretching her. 

Wolfgang's focus was Amy, but all round him sounds of rutting could be heard, those Alpha's with mates were getting in on the excitement of watching Wolfgang taking his mate. Taking their lead from Wolfgang and Amy, the men were in hybrid form and the women in human form.

Wolfgang felt her opening, stretching just that little further to allow his knot. Amy shook her head, wanting him to stop and let her take a break, the pain was too much; she leant forward trying to relieve the pressure and sighed as pain went away for a moment. Wolfgang growled and pulled her back, Amy winced and bit her lip. His teeth wrapped around her neck to keep her in place.

Just a little more I swear, he told her, as he kept moving.

Amy's eyes opened wide in surprise as Wolfgang's knot slid within her. She groaned as a warm tingling sensation filled her, her body clamped down on him and she shivered in pleasure. His short thrusts rubbed against all the right places, her universe was centered on her womanhood and Wolfgang's movements. Her breasts ached to be touched but all hands were occupied. He released her neck with his teeth; the hand that had been firmly holding Amy's hips slid up to cup her throat. He lifted her up bringing her back to his chest and thrust up into her, all the while he stroked her clit. Amy held onto the arm that held her throat to support herself.

Amy cried out as her body exploded in climax, she shuddered and held on Wolfgang who was the only stable thing she could think of. Amy's climax pushed Wolfgang onto his a moment later. Wolfgang howled in his own climax as his seed raced into her. His knot swelled further, trying to seal his seed within but there was just too much. A chorus of howling followed Wolfgang's. Wolfgang sat back on the altar; he brought the hand that had been stroking her womanhood to her lips.

Amy sucked on the fingers and relaxed against Wolfgang her body shuddering in bliss. Shia approached them in his long sleek panther form. Wolfgang slid both his hands between her legs and pulled them open offering her for all to come and smell her in the one place that could never be altered or covered with other scents. Shia sniffed at them, his whiskers tickled against Amy's thighs. He licked at the pool of juices between their legs on the obsidian surface, a delicious mix of Wolfgang and Amy.  

Other Alpha's started to form a queue.

Do we have to do this every night? Amy asked him silently.

Every night for a week, Wolfgang told her.

You don't have to sound so please with yourself, Amy retorted. She felt Wolfgang's chuckle.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 07



Alanna took the offered bear. Just as she brought it to her body the right eye popped off. She went pale.

"I've been meaning to fix that," Wolfgang told her, he slowly stood having seen her spook around fast movements. He walked back to the chest and returned with a sewing box. He sat on the coffee table and gently picked the eye up. He gestured for the bear back. He organised needle and thread and deftly reattached the eye, then smiled at his handy work and offered her back the bear.

"There, all better," he said as Alanna took the bear.

Amy tried not to smirk at the well loved toy Wolfgang had given Alanna.

"Thank you. He…he threw my bear into the fire," she told him, she turned her head into Amy's neck and cried. Amy pulled her close and hugged her.

Wolfgang moved behind her and held her creating an Alanna sandwich. Alanna struggled for a moment but Wolfgang's hug wasn't painful, nor was it sexual, it was no strings comfort. She closed her eyes and for some reason she relaxed. She could barely remember a time when she felt safe, but she knew she was safe, and more importantly her Wolf knew it.

Weeks of sleeping lightly or not at all caught up with her and she fell asleep clutching the teddy and Amy.

"When the Alphas leave I want you to have the room down the hall. We'll be your foster parents. If you want," Wolfgang added, he didn't want to come off as demanding.

Amy smiled at him. She's asleep. 

Wolfgang gently released her, together they got Alanna to lay on the couch. Wolfgang went and got her a pillow and tore some blankets from the bed as Amy removed her shoes and loosened her belt. Amy tucked the pillow under her head as Wolfgang tucked her in. Amy made sure the teddy was secure. Wolfgang wrote a note explaining that she could come here whenever she wanted, where they would be and that she was allowed to interrupt if there was a problem, even his offer to be her foster father.

Wolfgang gathered the plates. You shower, it's almost time for the meeting.

Amy nodded and went to have a shower as Wolfgang finished tidying the lunch plates but left one made up for Alanna. He took them to the kitchen and returned a few minutes later. Amy was already out of her shower and dressing. She slid on some shoes and they left together. Wolfgang grabbed Gillian. 

"No one goes into my rooms, if you see Alanna vacate the rooms you let her back in but no one else," Wolfgang told him.

Gillian nodded.

They walked out of the house and towards the amphitheatre. Roberto intercepted them.

"How is she?" he asked.

"Alanna is fine, she's sleeping in our rooms," Amy told him.

"Did you know she's not even sixteen yet?" Wolfgang asked.

Roberto turned to them surprised, "You got her to talk."

"Amy did," Wolfgang answered.

"That changes everything…" Roberto started to say.

"It changes nothing, we're fostering her, she feels safe with us, she even let Wolfgang hold her," Amy told him, "If you tear her away from us we'll loose her completely just leave her," Amy glared at him.

Roberto stepped back from Amy. "I'll leave it, it's just several of my men were hoping to come and try to court her. I'll tell them she's off limits," Roberto told her. "Sixteen, I should have made his death more painful," Roberto told himself off.

They made it to the amphitheatre. Everyone was waiting for them. Bob sat with Shia and Grey-hawk.

Grey-hawk stood and went to Amy, "Is she better?" he asked.

Amy nodded, "She's fine."

Grey-hawk smiled and went back to his seat. Amy walked onto the platform with Wolfgang.

"So tell us why the Ancients are involving themselves in our packs and prides," A man with an Australian accent asked.

"I didn't know when I was involving myself with Wolfgang that I was adopted, or that I was part Ancient," Amy explained.

"Doesn't explain her," The same Australian commented.

"I'm her mother," Rhiannon told him.

He turned to her, "You forfeited you parental rights the moment Amy was put up for adoption."

Amy stepped forward, "No she didn't…technically I haven't been born yet." 

Everyone turned to Amy. 

"I wont be born for another 900 years," Amy paused, "When I first found that out I wondered why I was brought back to live through this time. I still don't quite understand but I have a feeling I was brought back to this time to grow up not knowing my heritage for a reason. A reason I learnt of a little under two weeks ago. Wolfgang calls it a worst case scenario, I call it a blood bath," Amy paused again.

No one spoke they just waited for Amy, they all knew of the worst case scenario, it was why they were so careful around humans, never wanting to inflame racial hate that would cause as Amy named it a blood bath of human death. They knew what would happen if humans were to be wiped out, they would loose some of their genetic diversity and they would in a way loose themselves, they would revert back to their more animal instincts and no one wanted that.

"I experienced what Rhiannon told me was a time hop, I hopped four months forward from this day. But by that date it is far too late to stop the war, to stop the loss of lives on both sides, but we win and they loose," Amy told them, "That's why Rhiannon is here, that is why The President is here. To stop this…"

"How much did you learn of the events leading up to it?" Shia asked curious as to Amy's abilities. 

"Not only did I pick Wolfgang's mind I picked Bob's," Amy told them.

"Okay what do we need to do?" A woman called out.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 07



He bowed his head and waited. 

The woman lifted Amy's collar; unlike Wolfgang Amy wasn't allowed to drop to her knees, she had to stand. Amy had to show strength, the strength of a woman who would suffer pain to bring forth life. Wolfgang had to show humility to the woman in his life, without her he would have no children to carry his name and his blood.

The woman approached Amy with the lighter gold collar, like Wolfgang she opened the loop wide to slide it over Amy's head. The moment the collar rested on Amy's shoulders her markings started to pulse reacting to the magic in the collar and the magic that was binding her to Wolfgang. The elder pricked Amy's neck and pressed the blood to the figure eight. She whispered the words to seal the collar to Amy. The collar moved and the loop tightened the excess length slid between Amy's breasts. Amy's skin tingled almost painfully as she lifted her chin, she wanted to tug at the collar to loosen it slightly but she didn't.

The length of silk linked them. The elder grabbed the silk that linked them. Amy and Wolfgang shivered slightly as they felt an invisible tug. Energy surged down the length of silk from both Amy and Wolfgang. The moment before the energy met and bound together the elder released the silk knowing if she didn't she would be thrown across the clearing by the force of the energy. 

The elder stepped back and held out her arms, "Mates til death as is our way," she cried out.

"We are Mates," Amy and Wolfgang said as one.

The elders walked away, leaving Amy and Wolfgang. Amy helped Wolfgang to his feet. Wolfgang crushed Amy to his chest and kissed her deeply. He then released her. Amy closed her eyes and felt for the beast within her, it responded as she coaxed it out. Her muscles tensed for a moment then she started to shift.

Each time Amy shifted it seemed less painful to her, although she never actually felt the pain, easier and was becoming more like how Wolfgang had explained his shift, a pleasure.

She shook her body as the last of the changes came. She tried to shake the collar free and clawed at it for a moment but it didn't budge so she quickly learnt to ignore it. It took Wolfgang a few moments to come to terms with his collar. The moment he ignored it was the moment his attention shifted to Amy.

Amy was more interested in the cord that tied them together; she pawed at it playfully. Wolfgang approached her, legs stiff, tail erect and ears forward. Amy leant forward and rubbed her face against his as she purred.

Do you want to snuggle or mate? Wolfgang asked. 

Amy growled playfully and lunged at him.

Chapter 8

Amy gently lit a candle, the Alpha's had decided to leave early, on day five of the introduction, the sooner they got back to their packs or prides the sooner they could put into action their plans to prevent the worst case scenario. Amy had made a suggestion during one of their meetings, it had caused a stir but after careful consideration, they conceded to it. They would be having weekly video and telephone conferencing to keep in touch and make amendments to their plans. 

She blew out the match and approached Electra, the day before the last of the Alphas left; the gym was the first room to be converted back. Nathanael had suggested they slowly introduce Electra's eyes to light, although he said she might always have to wear sunglasses they were willing to try anything for Electra. Amy decided to use candlelight as it shed a small amount of light that was easily adjusted.

Electra grabbed Amy's hands as Amy went to loosen the blindfold.

"Do you trust me Electra?" Amy asked.

"Yes," Electra answered and released Amy's hands.

Amy undid the blindfold and removed it. Electra kept her eyes closed as she let her eyes adjust to the small amount of light. She squinted as she opened her eyes; it took her a few more moments before her eyes could focus then she glanced around the room.

"Every hour we light another candle until your eyes hurt. Then we stop, and then tomorrow we start with those candles and keep adding to the number," Amy explained.

Electra nodded, "Why are we in a gym...? I am assuming because I've never been in one?"

"We all need to learn to fight; Wolfgang is going to teach us," Amy told her.

Electra glanced around and spotted whom she could guess as Alanna and Maria. "Why..." Electra asked.

"We don't want to fight but a fight is coming. Self protection is the best," Wolfgang told her.

Electra nodded she could understand that, "So where do we start?"

"By getting your condition up," Wolfgang explained, "We start with sprints," he told them.

****

Amy slammed onto the ground and pushed her legs out kicking Wolfgang's feet out from under him. Amy rolled avoiding Wolfgang's falling body. She scrambled onto her feet and wondered again how she had managed to pick Wolfgang's name out of the sparing bowl, it had only been a month of training and already he wanted to start testing them. Wolfgang was on his feet moments after her. He was trying to gauge how well she was taking to fighting arts, of how much he would have to do to ensure her safety.

Amy kept low, knowing her small size was an advantage she would need. They circled each other carefully. Wolfgang spun in with a low roundhouse kick. Amy stood up, caught his leg and kicked out his other leg before he could react. She released his leg and stepped nimbly away avoiding his own attempt to floor her.

Amy smirked as Wolfgang got to his feet, that was twice she had floored him.

Wolfgang glared at her, "Control Amy you nearly destroyed my knee."

Wolfgang had noticed quickly that Amy could generate the same amount of force in her lean muscles that he could in his bulky ones. Mryddin and Taliesin had finally left Briton a month ago to be closer to Amy but to date they could not explain it, they could only shrug and put it down to her unknown half. Not only did Amy display a strength far beyond her size but she also had a natural feel for fighting.

"Sorry," she told him.

He didn't believe her, all was fair in love and war, as she had once taunted him.

Wolfgang closed the distance between them and started to rapid fire his punches, several Amy blocked or dodged. She allowed one hit, a stomach blow; before Wolfgang could pulled back Amy trapped his arm and dove feet first between his legs effectively throwing him over her body. She released his arm and glanced back to watch him sprawl onto the ground.

Amy got to her feet. Wolfgang sprung back onto his feet, "You deliberately took a hit to throw me?" he questioned.

Amy nodded, "You didn't expect it so it worked."

Wolfgang charged her, Amy stepped aside at the last moment her leg flying out to trip him. Wolfgang turned fast as lightning grabbed her arm and went down bringing her with him. Amy tried to roll free; in a wrestling match Amy knew she couldn't beat him. She may be able to generate the same kind of strength he could but she could not match his size.

Wolfgang rolled over trapping her arm beneath him; Wolfgang shifted his lower body to trap her legs. Amy twisted her body letting her arm fly smacking Wolfgang across the face. She managed to get to her knees under her and jerked up quickly sending Wolfgang flying off her. 

She went to scramble to her feet but Wolfgang bowled her over; he landed on top of her and pinned her arms down. Wolfgang panted; he leant down and kissed her. Amy moaned against his lips. 

Gillian cleared his throat, "Wolfgang phone," he said loudly to break the alpha pair up.

Wolfgang sighed, "Hold those thoughts," he told Amy.

"Rematch?" Amy asked.

"Yes, only a bed will be beneath us," Wolfgang said seductively. He got to his feet and left. 

Amy smiled and stood; she walked up to a punching bag and gave it a couple of hits. Vivian walked in and smiled at Amy. Vivian walked up and held the bag still.

"Amy, Rhiannon would like you outside," Vivian told her.

Amy nodded and went outside with Vivian, Taliesin and Mryddin were standing with Rhiannon. Rhiannon tossed Amy a wooden practise sword. Amy caught it and cast Rhiannon a confused look.

"There is a reason the Welsh knew me as a warrior goddess. I will show you how to use daggers, swords and more," Rhiannon told her, "Let's see what you are capable of."

Although Amy had never held a sword in her life, she dodged Rhiannon's practise sword and slid her practise blade in. 

Rhiannon stepped back, "Some are born to the blade; it calls to them," Rhiannon told Amy as she attacked and Amy dodged. "Some learn the blade and others die by the blade as the blade conquers them. I knew the moment you grabbed that practise sword that you were born to the blade," Rhiannon continued between slices and jabs.

Amy blocked and dodged on instinct, none of Rhiannon's blows came close.

"And where do you fit?" Amy asked as she stepped away and started to circle, she felt the urge to drop the tip of the blade down, opening her guard for attack. She followed her urge.

Rhiannon watched her for a moment, wondering if Amy was stupid or not, a warrior never let their guard down, never left them self open for attack, "I learnt the blade," she said as she charged.

Amy's arm snaked up, knocking aside Rhiannon's controlled lunge and tapping Rhiannon's neck with her practise blade. Amy stepped back and waited.

Rhiannon touched her neck as she corrected her balance, "Your guard was down," Rhiannon said stunned.

"No it wasn't," Amy said as she again lowered the tip.

Rhiannon smirked, "We'll see if that was just a lucky shot."

****

Wolfgang walked outside and smiled. Amy, Electra, Maria, Becky and Rhiannon were running around the house and gardens. Electra wore dark tinted glasses that hugged her eyes that were kept in place with elastic to prevent them from moving, it had taken her a month to get her eyes to desensitize enough to leave behind her blindfold. He watched as they approached, he leant against the wall his eyes focused on Amy.

She was wearing a pair of short shorts and a sports bra. Wolfgang shifted knowing he was getting aroused at seeing her sweaty and having no control over it, he was looking forward to the rematch she had declared yesterday. The gold collar hugged her throat; the excess length nestled between her breasts and continued down a little further. Amy and the group slowed, as they approached him they stopped and stretched.

Amy approached Wolfgang. Wolfgang wrapped an arm around her hips and pulled her to his body. He kissed her deeply. Amy moaned, her fingers tangled around the excess length of his collar and tugged on it. Electra and Alanna smirked, they were getting used to Wolfgang's possessiveness of Amy. He always wanted to hold her or touch her or be near her, it was a welcome change to what they were used to.

"Is there a reason you are disrupting our run?" Amy asked the moment his lips were off hers.

"Yes, someone wants to meet you. I've finally got the authorisation; we go ahead in a month," Wolfgang told her.

Amy sighed, she felt like time was running out. A month had passed, everyone was working hard but that still meant there was only two months to prevent an outright war. One month after they put their plan into action they would know if it had worked, but they couldn't do it any sooner; it had to be done exactly.

"Okay. So who wants to meet me?" Amy asked.

"A pack member, well two actually. One is a TV reporter who has organized the media coverage of our event, the other a singer who wants to hold a mini concert. It will be a double outing for them, first as Were then as mates," Wolfgang explained.

Amy smiled.

"Mind if we keep on running?" Alanna asked.

"No do as you please but keep out of mischief," Wolfgang told them, they chuckled. Wolfgang walked them inside. 

Amy spotted Bastion, "Don't forget Bastion, tonight is my night in the kitchen... I want you out by four," Amy told him.

Bastion nodded, "I remember; I got everything you wanted. Whose turn is it to wash?" 

"Alanna's and Electra's," Amy told him.

They continued on to the library. Amy walked in and her jaw dropped in surprise as both women turned to her. Amy turned and glared at Wolfgang for not warning her. Both women bowed their heads to the Alpha pair.

"Wow..." Amy said surprised. She stepped forward, "Eon Ripley lead singer of Random Fury is Were, I'm a big fan."

Eon chuckled, "No Random Fury is a Were band... there are a large number of us in the entertainment industry."

"And in the news, how do you think we keep Were matters so quiet," Mary Winslow said as she stepped forward. 

"I love you on ACA," Amy told her.

Mary smiled, "Thanks. I pulled strings to make sure I'm the reporter on scene."

"Who would they have sent?" Wolfgang asked curious.

Mary growled gently, "A racist bigot by the name of Stan Jefferies," She replied.

"The same reporter who proudly wears an I want a Were registry badge on his coat," Wolfgang said angrily.

Mary nodded, "Every time he wears it, it costs him a grand in network fines. We are meant to be neutral, I don't wear a badge that says registry for humans, I don't blame humans for every crime imaginable even though I know a Were committed the crime like he does," Mary clinched her fists and took a deep breath.

"So you don't like him?" Amy asked.

Mary crossed her arms, "The human race will benefit from his death," she stated blandly, "But we do not kill because we simply do not like them, that is a human trait, we put up with the people we don't like," She corrected herself.

"Sit," Amy offered.

Bastion walked in with tea and set down some nibbles, and offered Amy a towel to dry herself with. She patted herself down, tugging at her collar trying to loosen it slightly to get the sweat that gathered around it. It moved slightly allowing her to slide the towel between it and skin but the moment she slid the towel free it tightened.

"Still not used to it?" Eon asked as she helped herself to tea.

"I don't think I am meant to get used to it, are you used to your waist-let?" Amy asked.

Eon shook her head, "No it annoys me to no end but the moment I touch it, it reminds me of my mate. So I live with it," she replied honestly.

Mary reached over and held Eon's hand. Eon smiled.

"So why did you want to meet me?" Amy asked.

They both smiled, "We wanted to talk about what's to come," Mary said with a smile.

"Yeah it's all well and good saying it, but what about wearing shirts proclaiming it. Not everyone there is going to be Were, some are married to Were, some are in the process of being turned, some are friends, so why not different shirts for different people," Eon explained.

"Yeah, we can sync it; everyone exposes their shirt at a certain time. It's all time synced anyway," Mary added.

"What types of slogans do you want to put on these shirts?" Wolfgang asked.

"I'm Were for those who are, I'm not Were but my mate is for those who chose to remain human," Eon began.

"I'm not Were, but I'm going to be for those who are being turned. I'm not Were but my friend is for those who are friends of Were," Mary finished.

"We think that covers everything," Eon concluded.

Mary nodded to her and they both turned expectant eyes to Amy and Wolfgang.

"You've forgotten the other races," Amy told them, "What affects us will eventually affect them. I've talked them into joining us in protest. Together we stand a greater chance at making humans understand."

"Okay, instead of Were we just insert the race, be they Ancient, the Folk, elementals, Nephilim, Centaurs and Vampires. Whoever you've invited."

"A good idea, we'll run with it," Wolfgang told them. Mary and Eon smiled.

Electra, Alanna and Rhiannon walked in. Electra squirted water into her mouth and collapsed into a chair, Alanna collapsed next to her, they both looked exceedingly pleased with themselves. Amy tossed Electra her towel. Electra pulled off her glasses and rubbed down her face. Alanna wiped down the lenses for Electra. Electra kept her eyes closed and pulled the protective lenses on. She then offered the towel to Alanna. 

Alanna rubbed her face and tossed it to Rhiannon.

"So are you staying for the night?" Amy asked them.

Mary nodded, "That's if it's okay?" she asked.

Wolfgang smiled, "Of course it is, only it's Amy's night to cook."

Amy hit him hard thinking he was taking a swipe at her cooking.

"I like Amy's cooking," Electra defended.

"You like anything," Alanna retorted.

"I do not," Electra objected.

"Do to," Alanna taunted.

"I do not; I don't like stew or braised steak and onions or curry, looks too much like dog food," Electra retorted. Electra turned to Amy, "What are we having for dinner?"

"Tuna Mornay and salad," Amy replied, "Electra you will be helping me," Amy told her.

Electra nodded. Amy had been involving Electra in making meals to give her a wider view on food. Electra for the moment only liked her food if it wasn't mixed together, everything separate; Amy hoped that by getting Electra to make the meal it would mean she would eat it.

Eon gave Amy a bemused look, "You cook?" she asked.

"Yep, kick Bastion out of the kitchen once a week. My piece of normalcy," Amy told them wistfully.

Wolfgang chuckled; he reached out and pulled Amy onto his lap. He ran his nose against her neck, feeling his body respond. He growled as he nipped, sucked and kissed the delicate column. His lips found the sensitive hollow behind her ear.

Amy squirmed in Wolfgang's arms and managed to pull out of his arms.

"Do you ever think of something else?" Amy demanded.

Wolfgang smiled, "Yes, until you walk into the room then yes that is all I can think about."

Amy rolled her eyes and left the room.

****

Wolfgang woke a few nights later. He frowned as his stomach growled. He sighed and got up pulling on a pair of boxers. He watched as Amy rolled over into the spot he had just left snuggling into his warm spot. He smiled then rolled his eyes as his stomach made another demand for food. He walked quietly from his room and down the hall, he was careful of the creaking top step and went down stairs and into the kitchen. 

He turned on a light and squinted. He rummaged in the fridge for a moment finding left over sliced pork. He grabbed a tomato, some relish and lettuce. He put his spoils on the centre bench then went to the breadbox. He grabbed the rye loaf and a cutting board then cut two thick slices and returned to the breadbox. He went to work making his sandwich. He poured himself a large glass of milk and sat to eat his midnight snack.

He sighed when he downed the last of the milk and quickly tidied up the mess he had made. He yawned and turned off the kitchen light and went to return to bed.

Wolfgang paused outside of Alanna's room hearing a tussle. He heard her cry out and opened the door. She was fighting the blankets in the middle of a nightmare. Wolfgang raced forward.

"Alanna," he called out only loud enough for her. 

Alanna didn't react. Wolfgang tugged the blankets free releasing her from their tight wrap.

"Alanna," he grabbed her leg and shook it trying to wake her before she hurt herself. "Alanna," he tried again but she was too caught up in her dream to notice him. She started to thrash around. Wolfgang grabbed the blanket, threw it over her and then wrapped his arms around her.

ALANNA WAKE UP, he shouted into her mind.

Alanna's eyes shot open and she started to struggle in Wolfgang's arms.

"Alanna it's me Wolfgang," he told her gently, "You're safe Alanna," he continued, trying to help her calm down.

Alanna started to cry. Wolfgang released her and went to get off the bed.

"I'll..." Wolfgang went to get Amy. He felt his foot step on something soft. He picked up Rufus and offered him to Alanna. "Here," he tucked Rufus into her hands. He hesitated, he didn't know what to do, he wanted to go and get Amy but he also didn't want to wake her.

Wolfgang sat on the edge of the bed. He didn't reach out to touch her knowing she didn't like it. "Want to talk about it?" he asked gently knowing that would be what Amy would try to do.

Alanna clutched Rufus tighter and shook her head.

"It'll make you feel better," Wolfgang pushed gently, knowing that if he pushed too hard he would get nothing.

Alanna didn't say anything, she was afraid to. Wolfgang sighed and made himself comfortable, leaning his back on the bed head and crossed his fingers over his tummy and waited.

"I'm just going to sit here until you go back to sleep. If you want to talk I'll listen," he offered.

Alanna took a deep breath, "I was there again," she said softly, "I could smell him. I tried to hide but everywhere I went to hide he was there," she shivered and rubbed her face against Rufus. "I thought I was free but then he had me. He was beating me, I was trying to fight him off but he was trying to tie me down."

Alanna quivered, "I... can I stop now?" Alanna asked shakily.

"Nathanael says all the time that wounds have to be aired if they are ever meant to heal right. Do you want to heal Alanna?" Wolfgang asked.

"I don't want to be afraid any more," she answered, "I want to forget but Amy says I can't just forget what happened to me."

Wolfgang sighed and pulled Alanna into his arms to hold her. She was tense for long moments but slowly she relaxed as Wolfgang gently stroked her hair.

"Emotional wounds can fester for years, you have to talk about it, air it, accept it and begin to forgive yourself and him, if you don't, you will always be afraid, you will never know true freedom," Wolfgang explained.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 08



Alanna sighed; she tucked Rufus beneath her and wrapped an arm around Wolfgang getting comfortable to continue their talk.

"The nightmares haven't been this strong in a while. Not since I started talking again," she explained, "Normally you or Amy appear in my dreams, keeping me away from him, or you appear and he vanishes. Sometimes when you come everything changes, we're in the library or the gym or the kitchen laughing and fooling around."

"What was different tonight?" Wolfgang asked as he stroked her hair.

"I don't know," Alanna said quietly. She couldn't keep her eyes open. 

Wolfgang sighed pleased that Alanna was beginning to open up to him, beginning to trust him like she trusted Amy. With Electra it had been easy to gain her confidence, Wolfgang liked fooling around and playing games, he taught her chess, she began to trust him as it took a lot of patience to teach her the game of wits. He never got angry and always explained everything even if he had explained it before.

Now if only they could get Maria to start to open up. She seemed to resist any form of help, Amy was doing her best but Maria just refused to open up. She still slept in the box preferring the fact she could lock herself in and no one could get her. Wolfgang was beginning to fear she might just commit suicide. He sighed and closed his eyes, tomorrow he would talk to Amy so together they could focus more on Maria.

*

Amy groaned and reached out for Wolfgang. She pushed herself up and glanced around. She pulled on a teddy and went in search of him following her nose she stepped on the creaking floorboard waking Electra. Electra yawned as she walked out of her room and stretched, she wondered why Amy was wondering around a little after two.

"Go back to sleep Electra," Amy told her as she walked past Electra. Amy paused at Alanna's door and opened it. Electra rubbed her eyes and followed Amy into Alanna's room. She crawled in next to Alanna. Electra crawled in beside Wolfgang.

Alanna mumbled for a moment, grabbed Amy's arm and wrapped it around Wolfgang's waist. The room was quickly filled with deep even breathing.

*

Bastion walked in to see what was holding everyone up for breakfast. It was rare for Electra and Alanna to be late to a meal; they were normally hovering around annoying him for food. He smiled when he saw them all cuddled together. He was more proud to see that Alanna and Electra were cuddled up to Wolfgang with his arms wrapped around them both and their heads on his chest.

He closed the door gently and let them sleep as long as they wanted to. Now if only they could get Maria to make some more progress like Alanna and Electra that would truly make everything perfect. 

Well that and Amy getting pregnant, he mused to himself.

****

Wolfgang walked into his room a month after Mary and Eon had visited. The shower was running, he ignored the fact that Alanna, Maria and Electra were in the sitting room; he stripped and went to join Amy in the shower. He watched her for several moments as soap suds from washing her hair ran down her body and over her breasts, which stood out proud without sag, just the right size to fill his hands. Some soap continued its journey down her flat stomach that hinted a six-pack; past her waist-let to finally be caught in her trimmed pubic hair.

Wolfgang's body tingled as he watched Amy step under the spray; he could watch her for hours. He stepped into the shower and up to her; he hooked his fingers into the waist-let he had given Amy shortly after Eon and Mary's visit. It was made of gold in a similar design to her collar only small sapphires were set into it. He liked the thought of Amy wearing it. Although it wasn't a magical bond between them like the collar, it was still symbolic, like the ring she wore on her finger; his ring, his waist-let they made her his.

He gently gave it a tug pulling Amy back into his body. Amy turned to him and smiled.

"Are you done yet?" he asked her.

Amy nodded as she had finished with her hair.

"Good because I want to pay homage to you're body," Wolfgang told her.

"Wolfgang the girls are in the other room," Amy protested.

"Maybe it is time they saw what making love is," Wolfgang replied as he turned the water off. He didn't bother to dry her off. He flung her onto his shoulder, carried her into their room and tossed her onto the bed.

Amy bounced once then settled in the middle of the bed. Amy propped herself up and flicked her hair out of the way. Wolfgang grabbed her knees and pulled her towards him until her arse was at the edge of the bed. He stood over her and smiled. He laid down on her and kissed her deeply; Amy moaned into his lips and ran her nails against his skin. Wolfgang growled seductively. He tore his lips from hers and started to kiss her throat, feeling her quickened pulse against his lips, he nibbled his way down to her breasts.

One he kneaded with his hand, the other he kissed and bit. Amy groaned and arched her back presenting her breasts to him. Wolfgang took this point to swap to the other breast as his finger pinched and pulled against the one covered with his saliva. His tongue traced around the nipple before he sucked it into his mouth. Amy groaned and ran her fingers through his hair. Wolfgang released her nipple and licked the valley between her breasts. He then started a downward journey, licking, kissing and gently biting his way down her body. Amy squirmed beneath him.

Wolfgang smiled as he kissed his way down to her womanhood. He knelt between her legs; Amy opened her legs wide wanting him to bury his face between them. Wolfgang hooked his arms under her thighs and gripped her hips firmly. He started to nibble on her outer lips; Amy groaned and tried to jerk her hips up so he would hurry up.

Wolfgang chuckled, his tongue swept over her clitoris and Amy sighed and started to pant. She rolled her head to the side; she could see Electra, Alanna and Maria watching. Amy gasped as Wolfgang started to suck on her clitoris. Amy tried to relax, she knew Wolfgang could be nasty sometimes; he would take her to the brink and leave her there for ages before finally pushing her over.

Wolfgang teased her orally for almost half an hour. He pulled away and licked his lips; he smiled pleased with Amy's dishevelled look. He lay down on his back and ignored Amy even though he wanted to jump on her. Amy growled and rolled over throwing a leg over his body and sitting on his stomach. His erection was nestled behind her back. Amy got her feet beneath her and pushed herself up. 

Wolfgang sat up and supported her hips, his fingertips brushing the waist-let as Amy guided him into her. Amy groaned in pleasure as she worked herself down his shaft. When she finally had him buried to the hilt, she bit her lip and shivered in pleasure as she gripped him with her internal muscles. Wolfgang groaned, laid back and started to pant as Amy teased him much the same way he had previously teased her. She didn't move but every now and then, she would flex her muscles, squeezing him tightly then releasing.

"Please Amy," Wolfgang begged.

"Payback's a bitch," Amy retorted.

Wolfgang growled then lunged up grabbing her and rolling her onto her back and beneath him. He nibbled at her neck as he started to roll his hips back and slide home. They both groaned and held still enjoying the closeness. Amy lunged forward and sunk her teeth into his neck violently, drawing blood. Wolfgang growled and started to thrust.

Wolfgang breathed deeply ignoring the bite, he knew the girls were watching, normally he would get slightly violent during their lovemaking but today he would remain gentle, controlled but loving. Amy released his neck and licked at it.

Wolfgang... show them properly, Amy ordered as she racked her nails across his back.

Wolfgang growled but refused.

Violence and sexual violence are different; one is driven by passion the other is driven for control. Show them, Amy told him. 

Wolfgang kissed her deeply, Fine.

He tore his lips from hers. He pushed his chest up and slid out of her. He got off the bed flipped Amy onto her stomach. He lifted her hips, drawing Amy to her hands and knees. He jerked her back to his body. He nudged her knees apart and stepped up to her; he lifted her hips a little further and thrust forward powerfully sinking his entire length in one shot. They both groaned, Wolfgang reached forward and fisted her hair in his left hand. His right held Amy's hip as he started to thrust into her.

After a few thrusts, he released her hair and held both hips. They both groaned as Wolfgang worked them to climax. As they got closer to their peak, he leant forward and sunk his teeth into her shoulder. Amy cried out a moment later as she climaxed. Wolfgang released her and groaned as he exploded within her.

They both crumbled down onto the bed. Wolfgang rolled them over so he didn't crush her. He nuzzled at her neck and stroked her body.

"You okay?" he asked making sure he hadn't hurt her.

"Fine... tired but that was fun," Amy answered.

Wolfgang chuckled then licked the side of her face. His hand rubbed her tummy, wondering when they would start new life. Amy drifted to sleep cradled in his arms. Electra, Alanna and Maria walked though from the sitting room.

"Can you get the lights please?" he asked them. 

Electra paused for moment, "Can I ask a question first?" she asked.

"As many as you want," Wolfgang told her.

"Why didn't Amy fight you, you were becoming violent?" Electra asked.

Wolfgang sighed, "There is a difference..."

"Violence is violence," Electra snapped, she had been slightly rattled by watching Wolfgang manhandle Amy the way he did, it brought back bad memories. She had thought that Wolfgang was a good kind man, he had begun to restore her faith in men in general but he was no better than the men who had raped and beat her.

"No... the difference is in what fuels the violence, what you just saw was passion fuelled. I didn't go out of my way to cause Amy pain; in fact, I didn't hurt her. You can ask her yourself when she wakes. The violence you endured was either fuelled by rage, the need for control or because they could," Wolfgang tried to explain but he knew he had failed, "Look I know I didn't explain that right."

Electra waited as did the others; they wanted to know as well.

"There are different types of violence," Wolfgang began, "The difference between what happened between Amy and I and what happened between you and the men in your lives is that I never went out of my way to hurt her, if I did accidentally hurt her I made sure afterwards that I asked if she was okay. My concern was and always is for Amy's well being. I don't go out of my way to hurt her, I may be big and rough looking but Amy is my world and if I hurt her even unintentionally it would have been as if I hurt myself," he told them emotionally; even the thought of Amy hurt pained him.

The three women watched the play of emotions run across Wolfgang's face but they didn't know if they could trust him anymore.

"That is the difference, I don't mean to hurt Amy, but the men in your lives meant to hurt you, meant to inflict pain and humiliate you. I have never forced Amy to do something against her will, unlike those men. Sex with love is good; it's amazing. Sex with hate is bad," Wolfgang sighed, "I still didn't explain that right."

Alanna shook her head, "No I think I get you, and Amy started it," she smiled, "What happened wasn't true violence, after what we've been through it would be like being tickled, slight pain that added to the experience not mar it," Alanna turned to Electra, "Get the lights, if you still don't get it ask Amy in the morning." 

Once the lights were, off they left the room.

****

Amy yawned; she turned her head and her eyes focused on Wolfgang. She smirked it was rare for her to be awake before him. She normally woke to him watching her. She crawled off the bed and went to the toilet. She smiled as she wrapped her robe around her body. She shook her head and gently kicked a packed suitcase, Bastion; she surmised silently, she made a mental note to tell him off later. She left Wolfgang to sleep.

She walked sleepily into the kitchen. 

Electra was hovering around the microwave chanting, "Tuna, tuna, tuna."

Maria glared at her as she put bread in the toaster, "I wish Amy had never introduced you to that dish," she said grumpily as she wasn't much of a morning person.

Alanna snorted as she finished chopping up some melon for her own breakfast. Anna poured Amy a coffee.

"Where's Bastion I have a bone to pick with him?" Amy asked Anna.

Anna smirked and slid a voice recorder to Amy.

Amy pressed play.

"Amy, I am not sorry for packing your things, get over it. I've gone to the city to stock and air your apartment. See you after lunch," Bastion told Amy.

Amy gritted her teeth and carefully pressed the stop button, she really felt like just slamming the recorder down and smashing it. Anna chuckled and gave Amy a blueberry muffin.

"I love watching you two lock horns," Anna told Amy, "I think he does the things he does Amy because he likes fighting with you, you constantly challenge him, others just bow and let him have his way because he is who he is, and you don't. You're like a breath of fresh air for him Amy. Don't ever give in to him," Anna told her.

Amy smiled, "Never in a million years."

Anna chuckled.

Amy turned to Electra, Alanna and Maria, "When you're done with breakfast go make sure your things are packed and ready," they nodded.

Alanna scooped a large spoonful of yogurt onto her fruit and took a seat. Electra joined her with her reheated tuna mornay. Amy picked at her muffin. Maria watched and waited until Anna left. 

"Amy... last night..." Maria began but hesitated.

Amy waited for her.

"Last night, we watched..." Maria continued but again paused.

"Okay I'm guessing what you want to talk about. Just ask?" Amy told Maria.

"Why didn't you stop him?" Maria asked.

Amy frowned, "I don't understand?" 

Maria sighed in frustration, "He was violent..."

Amy clicked instantly, "Maria..." Amy interrupted. She stood and took off her robe. She turned around several times just so they could see she was unhurt. She pulled her robe back on, "I am unhurt..."

"But he got violent..." Maria protested.

"There are different types of violence..." Amy began.

"Wolfgang said that," Electra piped up.

"But he also said he didn't explain it right," Maria countered.

Amy had a funny feeling that she would have just as much trouble as he did. "Okay, circle now," Amy told them and sat on the floor. Rhiannon, Vivian and Mryddin walked in, they watched silently wondering what Amy was about to do.

Amy wasn't sure this would work but she was willing to try.

Alanna hesitated, "I get it," she told Amy.

"No you accept it you don't get it. Sit," Amy told her.

Alanna joined the circle; their knees touched forming a circle.

"Now I'm going to try to show you my relationship with Wolfgang. Don't shy away, just watch," Amy told them, "Now open your minds."

Everyone closed their eyes and opened their minds. Amy swamped their minds and brought them into her memories. She showed them everything, Wolfgang's love, his passion, his fear and anger, his control. She then dragged them into her memories of sex. When she was done, she opened her eyes and waited.

Electra frowned for a moment, "Slight pain and controlled violence can be good," Electra said trying to make sense of it.

"Like roughhousing," Alanna said and knocked Electra to the ground to wrestle.

Maria was still frowning. 

"Maria it's okay if you don't get it now, just promise me one thing," Amy told her.

"What?" Maria asked.

"Just be open?" Amy said simply.

"To what?" Maria asked.

"Everything," Amy replied. 

Wolfgang walked in and sighed, "Alanna and Electra no wrestling in the kitchen," he told them firmly. He then pulled Amy to her feet so he could kiss her. He broke the kiss, "Morning Rhiannon, Vivian, Mryddin," He frowned as he glanced for Taliesin, "Where's Taliesin?" he asked.

"Off exploring a ley-line crossing. Don't worry he'll be back before we leave," Vivian replied. She walked forward and grabbed a muffin.

"Electra, Alanna cut it out now," Wolfgang said firmly.

Both women paused in their tussle.

"If Bastion knew you were running a muck in his kitchen he would have your hides," Wolfgang warned them. 

Electra and Alanna came apart; they knew instinctively not to annoy Bastion. They got to their feet and went back to their breakfasts. Wolfgang gathered Amy in his arms and nuzzled at her neck.

"It was strange waking up this morning and not having you there," Wolfgang told her.

Amy chuckled and broke off another piece of her muffin. "Bastion did our packing, mind if I beat him up a little?" Amy asked.

Wolfgang chuckled, "Leave him be Amy."

****

Amy dug her hand into Wolfgang's belt as a path quickly cleared before him. Alanna and Electra followed closely behind her, Maria still uncomfortable with crowds had decided to stay at the apartment. Eon walked onto the makeshift stage and there was a roar of approval. On the stage, a clock counted down to the moment people would remove their outer garments to reveal their shirts. They had decided to time the protests, to time the reveal so that it happened all at once. A show of unity completely unknown to humans with different races, religions, packs and prides, working together as one to make a point.

"Hi everyone," Eon said as her band got ready to play, "Has anyone seen boss lady?" she asked. 

Everyone glanced around looking for Amy, some just looked for Wolfgang figuring he would be easier to pick out in the crowd and as he wouldn't leave Amy alone for a moment, he was the safer bet than trying to look for the small feisty female Alpha.

Hands went up around Wolfgang; a path was made to the stage for them. They were let behind some railing that separated the stage from the crowd. Mary stood on the inside of the railing reporting on the gathering.

"This is Mary handing it back to you Stan," Mary said with a smile into the camera the moment the equipment was down she continued "You pompous idiot."

The camera operator smirked at her; he knew her dislike of Stan.

Mary took the offered coffee and took a deep pull. Random Fury struck up a beat and started to play. They managed to do half a set before the timer hit the one-minute mark. Amy had organised it so that those who could not get out of work would be able to join the protest remotely, everyone's clocks and watches were synced, across the world, everyone was ready, everything was timed to happen as one.

"Alright everyone, the boss lady," Eon said giving Amy a small fright.

Wolfgang smiled sensing her hesitation, "You did this Amy; everyone is waiting to hear from you," he told her. Wolfgang lifted Amy onto the stage.

Eon steadied Amy as Amy stood. There was a cheer, Amy knew it came from those who called her Alpha for many of them this would be the first time they had seen Amy in the flesh. Amy waved and walked her way across the stage to the microphone. Amy pulled out some notes with some facts she wanted to list. She had wanted to write a speech but every time she went to put pen to paper she would draw a mental blank, the moment she put the pen down ideas rushed to her head but the moment she picked the pen up she lost it.

She picked up the microphone and took a deep breath.

"Twenty..." everyone called out as the clock ticked down.

Amy put the microphone back down to wait until after the revealing.

"As you can hear the crowd has started to count down, but to what?" Mary reported.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 08



"Ten..."

"Hold this," Mary handed the microphone to her producer.

"Three..." Mary as did everyone got ready to tear his or her tops off, "Two... one..."

Amy tore her blouse off; most had chosen easy to open clothes. 

Mary pointed to her shirt as the camera focused on the words clearly written there, I'm Were. Mary snatched her microphone back.

"That's right this is a Were protest. In every town and city across the world, Were and Others have gathered coming out of hiding. Now I don't know everything, so I'll turn you over to the organizer of this world wide protest," Mary said and turned to Amy.

Cameras focused on Amy. Amy picked up the microphone and took a deep breath.

"Hi everyone," Amy said, a deep hush fell over the crowd. Amy knew that across the world she would be on large projection screens. 

Amy took a deep breath, "I've found that people be they Human, Were or Other react mainly when statistics are thrown at them. So to begin this, I'm going to give everyone some statistics. 60% of the worlds population is Were, a further 5% is Other, which leaves 35% of the remaining population to be pure Human. Humans may refute these statistics, they believe that they are supreme, that is why this has been organized. Some don't believe in facts until they see them. So look around, in every town, in every city in the world there is a gathering like this one. A gathering of Were and Others."

Amy paused for a moment, "One unified, global protest, a protest about how Humans want to collar us like we are some pet they can control. We will not accept this, we let you live in peace, why can you not leave us in peace."

Amy smiled as she looked at a man with a; I'm not Were but my friend is, he had written best on his shirt next to friend. 

"But I am wrong," Amy corrected, "Not all humans want to see us collared and treated like scum, some just want to live with us, want to know us, they want to be our friends and just as important we want to be their's. It is the intolerant which are causing friction."

Amy paused for another moment, "I would like to read an essay by an eleven year old girl, an essay she wrote for her human studies class."

She opened the piece of folded paper.

"The girl called her paper 'The True Meaning of Hate'," Amy told them she then cleared her throat.

"Hate... we've heard the word, and sadly; we've all used it, sometimes in anger without true intention and sometimes in malice; meaning it with a vengeance... but what is Hate. According to the Oxford dictionary to hate is to dislike somebody or something intensely, often in a way that evokes feelings of anger, hostility, or animosity. How is it that humanity, be it Human or Other, in this day and age of almost infinite knowledge; can still have such a destructive word in its vocabulary. How is it that at the drop of a hat; that word can just be thrown out at the people around us?"

"We hear the grumbles, the whispers of our parents, when they think we are too involved in our games. We see the gatherings, the caution as our parents try to shield us from danger. The lessons drummed into us from the moment we are old enough to understand, are drummed deeper, pretend to be human, pretend to be what we are so obviously not, but we conform."

"Still the grumbles continue, those of us who are open are attacked, so we close ranks tighter, trying to lessen our impact to calm Human's down. I'm eleven, yet I am not like my human age mates, they find it hard to live the one life they know, they should try living three for that is my life. At home I am Were with a strict code that governs my actions, at school I pretend to be human even though there is only five humans in my entire year and at night I am the wolf cub learning my place in the pack. I cannot be what I am because I will cause waves, but pretending to be what I'm not isn't helping either."

"History has shown us countless of times what humans do to those who are different, the atrocities that humans have inflicted on their own kind because their skin is different, they speak the wrong language, come from the wrong side of the street and most of all if they follow wrong god. It seems that humans have always hated that which they either don't understand; or don't want to understand. It has led them to war countless of times."

"As a Were I understand nature and in nature it is considered weak to show fear, it's why most animals when startled or chased will turn and attack the thing that scares them. Instead of showing fear they show anger, its why most cats will hiss and snarl at dogs as if they hate them. It is fear that drives them to anger and what can be described as hate. Well it's not that much different for humans, humans are only evolved animals, much like we are."

"This essay is about hate, so it's actually about fear. Fear is the true motivation behind hate. So here is my Theory: Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate. Hate is an ugly cycle that constantly renews itself in the minds of some humans. Hate and anger can be overcome by releasing fear and learning about that which is different. Acceptance and tolerance will prevent so much from happening, but history shows us how humans deal with those they consider different. However history also shows us that humans when push comes to shove will endure, being shunned themselves to right a wrong done to a different kind of human."

"I don't understand racial hatred, I know what it means, how it affects the people who either use it as a shield that they think will protect them and those who are the victim of it's damaging edges, but I still do not understand it. I'm eleven and we, as in Were, are taught deep respect for everything around us and everyone. I go to school with Elementals, Folk, Hawks, Panthers, a Bear, Humans; the female alpha of my pack is Ancient. My best friend is a Centaur."

"We have our territories, our boundaries were we can grow, but our boarders overlap, we don't care what you are as long as we know who you are. It is the character of the person be they Human or Non-human that should be judged, for that is the true person."

"If a war comes, we will be ready; we will fight, for it is in our natures to fight. We will win, but we will also loose. We will loose our Were side, the side that thinks beyond the change of the seasons, and revert to our animal side with no dreams or motivation for more. So I end this three questions. Why must we be what we are not? Why must we be forced to fight when we just want to live in peace? And finally will the price of our survival be worth it?"

Amy waited; she had barely taken a breath before applause filled the gathered crowd. Amy waited until the noise died down again.

"That is why we are here today, today we stop pretending to be what we are not, today we stop hiding in the shadows. Today we step forward with humans, to share our futures. To prevent a war we don't want to happen," Amy told them.

"My name is Amy Luis and I'm Ancient," Amy declared. Part Ancient, I really should have said complicated. Amy said silently.

*

Sienna forced her way through the crowd. She spotted Bob as she had gotten used to looking for him a few months earlier. "Bob," Sienna called out as she pushed her way through the bodies. 

Bob smiled when Sienna finally got to him. Four people Sienna didn't know were with him. When she was close, enough she sniffed the air around them. Human, she concluded.

"These are the people Amy wanted me to find," Bob told her.

Sienna smiled, "Welcome," she told them, "Follow me."

"Grab my belt," Bob warned and grabbed Sienna's as she dived back into the crowd. The new comers quickly formed a single file behind Sienna.

Sienna quickly got them to the flimsy railing. A man on the gate recognised Sienna and let them behind the railing. Sienna pause before Wolfgang, who was holding his arms out to help Amy down from the stage. Wolfgang gathered Amy into his arms; he brought her close and refused to set her on her feet. He kissed her thoroughly parting her lips and running his tongue around her mouth to taste her. 

Sienna glanced back to watch the soldiers. They were doing their best to ignore Amy and Wolfgang.

Amy broke the kiss, "Put me down," she said almost breathlessly.

Wolfgang slid her down his body then stepped aside to let her pass. Amy smiled at Bob.

"Bob welcome," Amy greeted.

Bob opened his bomber jacket to expose his white shirt. I'm not Were but my friends are, blazed across his chest. His shirt was custom made, the lettering slightly different to the lettering of the mass made shirts.

Bob took Amy's hands and brought them to his nose, the correct way to greet the Alpha female, so he had been told by many, during his time with the Alpha's. He had even talked Wolfgang into giving him a Were advisor. 

Bob gently released her hands, "Amy, political life becomes you," he told her.

Amy snorted, "As if. I've just made myself an even bigger target for those human supremacist separatist idiots."

"You and me both, mind if I take the stage to add my own two bits," Bob asked.

Amy gestured saying silently that the stage was his, "I'll just get Eon to wrap it up," She told him, Eon the president wants to chat.

Eon wrapped her song up, "Okay people, we have a guest who wants to talk," Eon put the microphone in the stand and helped the president up onto the stage.

Bob approached the stand. Everyone was as quiet for him as they were for Amy. Bob rubbed his hands against his legs, a nervous habit he had always tried to hide, but he had learnt from the Alpha's that sometimes hesitation and showing it was a good thing, it showed those beneath you that the decision made was one that wasn't made from haste but from weighing the outcomes.

"Greetings..." he began, "A few months ago I knew little to nothing about Were, all I knew were the stories fed to us, to make Humans afraid. However, I was invited to a gathering of all the worlds Alpha's; I got a chance to see the people who made Humans so afraid. I didn't just meet everyday Were, I meet the Alphas, the leaders, the law makers and enforcers of their respected territories and I tell you now, I may have harboured doubts but within moments I learnt that you cannot judge a person by the stories that were penned so long ago.

I learnt much about Were life during the four day long meeting. I got to go, watch and be involved in ceremonies that can be dated back to the dawn of Humanity. I learnt that each pack or pride was different, had different customs, ways of doing things, yet they could work together because they could see past those slight differences, they didn't matter.

I watched as one Alpha was challenged for the right to be a husband, something I learnt was completely normal; it's simply survival of the strongest when it comes to Alphas. I saw their infamous side, the one we Humans have nightmares about, but I also saw the compassion Were have for those who were wronged, I witnessed their patience and the dignity they give to those same people.

I came to understand slightly what it is to be Were, and I came to admire them.

Don't get me wrong, some Were are callous, recently the Alpha's were forced to dissolve a pack that were practising an undesirable trait. However, I know some statistics, in the last ten years, twenty-five people were killed by Were, all twenty five were killed by a pack of rogues from the pack that was dissolved, who weren't even from this country. In the last hour, twenty five people and then some would have been murdered in this one city alone, all will have perpetrated by humans," Bob said firmly.

He took a deep breath, "I'm not trying to blame one race or another. I am simply saying that there is good and bad in every race. We must accept that and judge the merit of each person by their actions not by their race," Bob glanced around.

"I will not see my friends collared and their culture lost, I will fight for Were and Other rights as strongly as I will fight for Human rights, the rights of one should be the rights of all," Bob finished. There was a roar of approval.

* * * * *

Bob handed the microphone back to Eon. Eon took the microphone and bowed her head.

Bob hopped down off the stage and turned to Amy, "And now the battle lines are drawn."

Amy sighed, "Lets hope nothing will come of this, that those few people will realise the world is moving forward and they are being left behind if they retain such evil ideals."

Bob nodded and smiled. "I found them," he told Amy and gestured behind her.

Amy turned and a big smile broke her face, before her stood some of the Marines from her hop, the important ones. "Hello… you don't know me but I know you," Amy told them.

Susan Rice frowned, "How?" she asked. Susan looked different out of her battle fatigues, softer perhaps. Her jeans and top hugged her feminine form. Blond hair was pulled back in a pony tail, blue eyes were weary. Her team had been pulled from a mission by the president, of course she was weary.

Amy smiled, "It's a long story. One I want to tell you but not here, it might be easier to show you," Amy told him.

Rhiannon frowned as she joined them. "Amy…" Rhiannon said to gain her attention, "It was one thing with Were, they are telepathic already. I still thought it impossible to do what you did but with humans."

Amy smiled, "I can do it mother," Amy taunted Rhiannon.

Rhiannon pointed at her, "I am not your mother yet," she said angrily.

Bob chuckled and turned to Wolfgang, "They are still arguing about that?" Bob asked.

Wolfgang nodded, "They are Ancient," he said in way of explanation.

"One of these days someone is going to have to explain that to me," Bob said.

"You and me both," Wolfgang told Bob, basically saying that he knew little of the Ancients to aid Bob in his quest.

Bob sighed and watched Amy. 

"Who gave birth to me?" Amy asked.

"I do in 900 hundred years time… don't push me Amy," Rhiannon retorted, "I am still finding it hard Amy. Can we do this slowly?" Rhiannon asked.

Amy nodded.

"Ancients really should just be called complicated," Mary slid in. "Mister President, my Queen can I get you both hooked up for a T.V interview." She asked hopefully.

Bob turned to Amy. Amy nodded.

"First things first," Bob turned to the Marines who straightened, "You are to protect Amy, you'll understand why later. You will be joining a group of Were who are also going to be protecting her," he told them, "If Amy gives you an order, as long as it doesn't conflict with protecting her, obey it."

They nodded.

"Any orders from any one other than myself and Amy you are to disregard," Bob told them giving them perhaps their strongest order, never had they worked outside of the chain of command before.

They nodded again casting Amy a curious look.

Bob turned to Mary, "Okay lets do this," he told her.

Mary's producer quickly hooked Bob up then Amy. Amy adjusted the earwig in her ear and the way she held her microphone. The producer started to count down then pointed to Mary. 

"Welcome back, as you can see I am with President Robert Ashford and my pack's Alpha female Amy Luis after their historical speeches." Mary turned to them, "So first question, what has sparked all this?" Mary asked.

Bob smiled and turned to Amy.

"Many small factors have been leading to this but most of all it would have to be the added push of Senator Paolini and his bill for registration of Were. If that were to go through It would be as if humans have gone back to the second world war when the Jewish were forced to wear the star of David on their cloths simply because they had become the new focus of hate for another race. All the development, all the sharing that has happened since that time washed away as if hundreds of thousands of people hadn't been killed for simply having a different belief structure," Amy explained.

Bob however knew the true motivation, like Amy he didn't want to see a blood bath.

"And the mumbles of a War?" Mary asked.

"That is what we are tying to stop," Bob stated, "Before I was asked to come to the gathering I had no idea of the numbers, I naïvely believed that there were more humans then Were. I was dead wrong, each pack or pride keeps extensive records of births, deaths and turns. Even if Were numbers were less I would still wish no battle. This world is to be shared." Bob finished. 

"Nor do we wish to fight humans," Amy added.

"So Bob, tell me, during your time at the gathering what did you come to admire the most about Were?" Mary asked curious.

Bob thought for several moments. "The most moving thing I watched was a traditional funeral. I have come to understand that the measure of a person or people can be noted in how they treat their dead. It was… it was different but steeped in tradition. I almost caused a blunder by going and offering my condolences, but Were don't really mourn their dead. They believe in reincarnation. I was told, when I was stopped, something very simple, why offer condolences to someone who isn't really dead, they are just not here. It moved me," Bob told the world.

"But what did you come to admire?" Mary pushed.

"As for what I came to admire," Bob paused for a moment, "I came to admire many things, the compassion they showed to several woman who had been badly treated, the infinite patience in dealing with those same women. But mostly I came to admire the fact that although they were all different, that they came from different backgrounds, different up bringing, cultures, they could all get along. During the talks they argued and debated but everyone had a voice, when the talks were over they were all friends, they could laugh and be at ease amongst each other. That's what I came to admire, the Were ability to work together without offers of payment or trade, working together without strings just to ensure that everyone was safe."

Amy chuckled and got to her feet. "There are rooms downstairs for you but in the morning we are going back to the manor as it is harder to get at," Amy explained.

They nodded.

Bastion put a stack of take out menus on the bench and a pad of paper.

"Put down your orders, when I get them all in I'll do the call around and put a small dent in Wolfgang's credit card," he called out.

Electra walked in and grabbed a bottle of water, "What's for tea?" she asked Bastion.

"What ever you want to order?" Bastion told her.

Electra frowned, "Can I make something?" she asked gently.

"No, it's my kitchen and I just finished cleaning it after the hurricane of afternoon tea," Bastion told her firmly.

Electra nodded and went to her room, she would go without tonight, she didn't trust many people with making her food, the thought of some stranger making her meal made her uncomfortable.

"Electra…" Amy called out to get her to come back.

Electra walked forward. 

"Electra you really need to start trusting people with making your food," Amy told her, "Bastion put Electra down for a Meat lovers with a barbeque swirl," Amy gripped Electra's shoulder, "Trust me… you'll love it as much as you love tuna mornay but you have to promise me to at least try it, eat one slice."

Electra nodded, "Okay I promise to try it." Electra walked off to have a shower.

Susan walked over. "I'll make sure she tries it." 

Amy turned to Susan, "What little she was given when she was in that cell was at most the cheapest brand of dog food on the shelves. She likes to be involved in the cooking process as she can see that no dog food is added, we haven't been able to get her to eat braised stake and onions or my favourite Sheppard's pie because it looks too much like dog food to her. She can watch it be made but still can't bring herself to eat it," Amy explained.

Susan nodded, "I'll make sure she tries the pizza."

Amy smiled as Nathanael walked in, "Nathanael," Amy gestured him to her. Nathanael walked over.

"Hello," he said to Amy and Susan.

"Nathanael this is Susan, she's a Marine medic. Can you give her a crash course in Were physiology and healing rates?" Amy asked.

"Of course." He steered Susan away, "Your going to the manor so attack the main library, there should be a section on Were physiology. Ask Amy as she has a good idea of which books will aid you," Nathanael told her.

Susan nodded and sat ready to hear him.

Wolfgang grabbed Amy and walked her into their room, "Shower, dress we have to go in an hour," he told her as he started to strip to shower.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 09



Wolfgang went pale. "The building you were in."

Amy nodded, "It's going to happen, we can't stop it our only hope is to limit the damage."

"How long?" Izmir asked.

"Two weeks," Amy answered, "We need to prepare for the fight but we also need to give everyone guidelines for battle," Amy told them.

"Such as?" Peter, one of the English pack leaders asked.

"Such as limiting force, fight to disarm and contain not to kill and only those who are attacking," Amy suggested.

Shia slammed his hands down on the table. "Hello, am I the only one who sees a flaw in this. Amy you will bear the brunt of this attack, will you command the humans in your protection squad to fight to disarm when their lives are in danger. No you will trust them to do what they need to do to survive," Shia told her and many agreed with him.

Wolfgang raised his hand getting silence, "Amy is right and so is Shia, since it is no longer a matter of if we fight but merely when, we need to limit the loss of lives. No attacking people who are not attacking you, forced turning is still forbidden. Fight to protect yourself and whoever asks for help, if possible fight to disarm," Wolfgang said conceding to both points of view.

"Amy…" Roberto said to gain her attention, "What are you doing that day?" He asked.

"I'm doing a speech on Were history and culture at an anthropology and sociology convention," Amy answered.

"Cancel," Roberto said, he honestly liked Amy and he didn't want to see her hurt.

"No, this will happen, one thing separates what happened in my hop and what will happen this time; we know who the ring leaders are and where they will mount their attacks. The Alpha's are organised. We can anticipate them." Amy told him.

"So do we all agree to use those rules of engagement?" Wolfgang asked.

Everyone agreed.

"Inform your people and warn that those working outside of the rules of engagement will be killed," Wolfgang added.

Everyone nodded, they knew Wolfgang was right, an instant consequence needed to be added to curb behaviour.

"What about accidental turns?" Cardoc asked.

There was mass murmer about Cardoc's question.

"There is no such thing," several Alpha's said aloud.

"It will happen," Cardoc defended, "When the fighting starts most will shift into their hybrid forms, everything will be moving so fast, even the smallest scratches will cause a turn, grabbing hold and accidentally breaking skin will cause a turn. What happens then?" He demanded.

The alpha's really started to think about it, Cardoc was right, in the moment of battle no one could be sure they wouldn't turn someone accidentally. A stray scratch was all it took and in all likelyhood stray scratches were going to happen.

Everyone turned to Amy as she had always had the right answers when it came to such sticky moral issues. "Preach caution to your members, accidental turns will not be punished within reason, accidental turns will be dealt with by their new respective Alpha's. Accidental turns will have to be accepted as a possibility, but again preach caution. Lets try to keep those numbers down," Amy paused, "If you think one of your members is claiming accidental when it is obvious that it isn't treat them correctly without doubt."

Everyone nodded, Amy's logic again proved to be infallible.

"What about the Xenophobic morons, what happens if they accidentally get turned?" Bob asked surprising everyone.

Amy smirked she could see the looks on the Xenophobic once humans faces when they find out they are no longer human and are the race they once despised; it almost felt like poetic justice. "I guess that will be their choice, they will be watched. They can choose to live by our laws and at the first signs of any undesirable traits they will be dealt with as normal. Or they can commit suicide, we will not murder them," Amy said with as little emotion she could put to it.

Everyone nodded; again Amy had the answers they needed. She seemed to be able to know their deepest fears and concerns, she managed to deal with those fears and temper them with wisdom far beyond her years. She always seemed to be looking out for both sides and always seemed to find a middle ground that met the needs of both sides.

"I think we should close this meeting, we will reconvene in a week. If you have questions write them down, we'll deal with them next week," Shia said closing the meeting.

Shia turned to Amy when the last of the Alpha's had signed off, "I wish we had known this a month ago Amy."

Amy nodded, "I know. I do as well," Amy frowned, "Shit." She left the room suddenly remembering she had left a horny Sienna with Susan. Amy raced into the library where Susan was trying to keep Sienna away from her by keeping the desk between them.

Amy grabbed Sienna around the arms to hold her still. Amy tilted her head to the side, "Sorry about that Susan. Give me a second to find someone who wants to romp with Sienna."

"But she smells so nice," Sienna protested.

Gillian come and get Sienna, take her to your room and take care of her, Amy told him. 

Gillian walked in several moments later. He frowned and grabbed Sienna, "What do you mean by…" Sienna's lips silenced his. Gillian nodded and lifted Sienna up and carried her to the nearest vacant bed.

Amy turned to Susan, "You okay?"

Susan nodded and joined Amy, "What did she mean by I smell so nice?"

Amy shrugged, "May I smell you?" She asked.

"Didn't you smell me two days ago?" Susan asked.

"There is a difference, I never focused on your scent like I would have to, to truly smell you," Amy explained.

Susan nodded. Amy leant in and ran her nose against Susan's neck taking a deep breath as she went. Amy stepped back, "Cinnamon, sugar cane and rain, it's the only way I can explain it, " Amy told her. "I'm surprised a man hasn't tried to get you between the sheets," Amy said.

"Drifter has," Susan told her.

"His wife would like that, he's been hounding her for sex for over a month but it's uncomfortable for her at the moment," Amy told her.

Susan went pale, "He's mated."

Amy chuckled, "Meaningless sex Susan."

"Hello, sexually transmitted diseases," Susan retorted.

"Were are immune to STD's. The government has known about it for years, but to pass the immunity on you would have to be turned so it's useless to them," Amy told her.

Susan shifted uneasily.

"What's wrong Susan?" Amy asked.

"I was raised in a strict Catholic household, if my parents knew…" She started to say.

"If your parents knew you were gay…" Amy slid in confirming her assumption that Susan doth protest too much about all the women approaching her.

Susan nodded.

"So you would prefer to live a lie than tell the truth?" Amy asked. "Human life is fragile, you don't know what tomorrow will bring," Amy said as she went to walk away, "You'll know where to find me when you make up your mind," Amy paused at the door, "Granted your parents might not understand but at least then you will be able to sleep easier at night." Amy left the room.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 09



She dug through her things and got dressed in a pair of black pants, a blouse and a jacket, then pulled on boots. She grabbed a black scarf and gloves, it was starting to get nippy as Autumn was well on it's way to becoming winter.

Amy turned to watch Wolfgang pull a thick black jumper over his body. Amy bit her lip as her eyes roamed over him. Wolfgang smiled. 

"You better go eat something," Wolfgang told her.

Amy nodded, left the room and went to the kitchen. Anna was pouring her a coffee when Amy walked in. Amy smiled and picked up her coffee and took a mouthful. Maria handed Amy a plate covered with bacon and eggs. Amy had taken Electra's advice and put Maria in Anna's charge. Slowly but surely Anna's no nonsense but caring nature had Maria on the road to recovery.

Amy sat and started to eat. Susan sat at the table and poured herself some cereal.

"I don't know how you keep in shape with all the food and junk you eat," Susan commented.

"Come on you read about it, we have a higher metabolic rate. We have to eat and we have to eat often," Electra commented as she poured chocolate sauce over her pancakes, she then added maple syrup.

Susan pulled a face as she watched Electra devour her meal.

"That's just plain wrong," Susan stated.

"It's yummy," Electra retorted.

Wolfgang poked his finger into the mix and popped it into his mouth, "Interesting. I prefer sardines and ice cream myself." He walked over to Anna who handed him steak, eggs and toast. His steak took up the entire plate and three eggs rested on top, toast soldiers were piled on the eggs. Wolfgang sat and ate his breakfast.

"Where are Mac, Lock-heart and Sarge?" Wolfgang asked.

"Gone ahead to secure the apartment and check it over," Susan supplied.

He nodded and piled some egg onto his steak before popping it into his mouth.

Alanna sat with her large bowl of fruit salad and yogurt. "So when do we leave?"

"After I've done my checks on my guns. We'll be travelling in four cars, all are armoured…" Susan started to do the run down again.

"Which cost me a small fortune," Wolfgang slid in.

"Us…" Amy corrected.

Susan glared at them.

"Susan we went over this three times last night. We know what we have to do," Amy told her.

Susan frowned, "I know we've gone over it but we need this to be flawless."

Everyone nodded.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 10



"Cut it…" Gillian told them both, "We cannot afford this kind of division. Amy is the boss, you answer to her; she doesn't answer to you. She is an Alpha; we only take our orders from you because she wants us to. Granted what they did was a little reckless but it got the job done before it attracted a whole heap of them to us." Gillian took a deep breath, "Now lets dig the slugs out and regroup," he suggested.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 10



She went to the door and saw the cowering bus driver. Sienna pushed the doors open and climbed up, "Keys," she demanded.

The man pointed to the ignition.

"I would get out if I were you?" Sienna told him as she jumped into the drivers seat, turned the key and started the engine, the driver got out and ran into the nearest building. Sienna rolled her eyes and turned back as she threw the bus in reverse. She gunned the motor and took off; bullets thudded into the bus. She moved the bus into position, putting it between the children and the other snipper.

"Go," Sarge said as he clapped Amy and Susan on the back and then clapped Alanna. 

They ran as fast as they could, bullets chased their ankles. Alanna kept right behind Susan to catch any stray bullets meant for her. Amy dived under the bus and rolled until she was safely on the other side.

Alanna stumbled as she followed Susan around the bus, she stared at her thigh as it was gushing blood and sat behind a tire. Amy coughed blood as several bullets had hit her in the back. Susan went straight to the teacher knowing Amy and Alanna would survive their wounds.

"Hey guys; up against the bus is safer," Alanna invited the children. She pulled out a pair of tweezers and started to dig out the bullet in her thigh. 

Sienna started digging the bullets out of Sage. 

Sage pushed herself onto her knees with a sigh. Her raven black hair had natural streaks of white, it was shoulder length and left loose except for two plaits that came from each temple and wrapped around to connect together. Her eyes were such a pale blue they were often mistaken for grey. For a ten-year old Sage could almost pass for someone older as she was almost six feet tall, only she was long and gangly. 

"You okay?" Sienna asked the clearly shaken Sage.

Sage nodded and pushed up so that she was kneeling. Her wings angled forward over her shoulders so that her all her important flight feathers weren't bent.

"I just hope my ma is okay, she was heading to her new job today. I know she didn't want me to be out today," Sage said softly as she turned to Sienna.

Sienna sighed, "I'm sorry Sage, we don't know."

Amy knelt before Sage, "I'm sure she is fine Sage. If I remember correctly she's had some Nephalim training, she can take care of herself," Amy said trying to reassure her.

Susan had the other teacher in the group, who wasn't injured, applying pressure to one of the injured teachers wounds. She dug into a bag and pulled out four packets of, for lack of a better word, syrup. She tossed one to each of the Were and one to Sage. "Eat up it's one of Nathanael's rapid healing thingies," she explained before turning back to Sage's teacher.

They tore the edges off and sucked the syrup down. After Alanna pulled the slug from her leg she turned and started pulling bullets from Amy's back.

Sage sat next to her teacher who had tried to drag her to safety shortly after the initial shots were fired. Sage watched Susan carefully hoping she could do something, that she knew something about treating humans. The others finally joined them after driving some more cars to create a three-sided box to protect them with the SWAT snipper at their back.

Susan glanced up to Sarge, "She needs a hospital, the abdominal wound missed the liver and spleen but it's clipped the large intestines. The wound will go septic if the hole isn't sealed and the site cleaned within the hour," her grim expression was all Sarge really needed to see to know that the teacher wasn't in good shape.

"I could fly her," Sage suggested. She didn't know if she could handle it if her teacher died because she had tried to protect someone who couldn't be killed.

"No Sage…" Amy told her firmly, "One stray bullet and you could both come crashing down, you'll survive a fall; she won't."

Sage nodded, she understood but she felt like she had to do something. She wasn't like other Were children. She was part Nephalim, a warrior race that were wildly feared for their uncompromising battle skills but admired for their code of chivalry. Sage, because of her Nephalim blood didn't need to be taught how to fight, she only needed to practise and according to her father she was born to the blade and fighting arts. 

"Black van," Drifter called out.

Those with guns raised their weapons as the van backed up to them. They dropped their weapons when they saw SWAT plastered across the back of the van; bullets ricochet off the armour. The doors opened and several men hopped out.

"Whose in charge here?" A man asked after he pulled his black cloth mask down.

Everyone pointed to Amy. Lock-heart's finger rested on the trigger of his gun, just in case they suddenly decided to start firing. He would at least get in several good shots before his death, he vowed silently.

"How can we help?" The same man asked.

Lock-heart's finger left his trigger. If Amy wasn't judging them to be a threat neither would he.

"This lady needs a hospital asap and these kids have to get out of here. You're guy up there took out two snipers but we're guessing there are another two," Amy informed him.

"We could use more ammo if you've got any," Sarge added.

"Help yourselves to the ammo and we'll ensure she gets to a safe hospital and the children are put somewhere safe," the man who did all the talking answered.

Another SWAT man approached the children; he knelt before them and smiled, "Hey guys, who wants to ride in the SWAT van?" he asked them.

All the children except Sage raised their hands, it wasn't often that children were invited to ride in a SWAT van.

Sage turned to Amy after she thought for a few moments, she could do something to help, "I'm Nephalim, I can help," she stated boldly.

Amy sighed, she had known deep down that Sage was going to ask to join them. "Sweetie…"

Sage's look hardened, she was going to fight, she was going to help. "No… I am not some prissy footed Were child, I'm half Nephalim, I can take care of my self better than humans can," Sage glared at Amy as she spoke, while she lived with her mother she had to obey Were society as well as the Nephalim code of chivalry. The code mandated that she offer her services to Amy and not to take no as an answer but if Amy said no she would have to obey as she was in Were society at the moment not Nephalim.

Amy sighed again weighing her options. Sage was correct, Nephalim were warrior Demi-gods, born fighters, they didn't have to learn to use their powers or how to fight, that knowledge was blue printed into the genes. She also knew who Sage's father is, the War lord, so of equal rank to Amy, by saying no to Sage it would be as if saying his blood was not good enough for battle and could very well reignite the Were-Nephalim wars which had nearly decimated both sides.

The wars had only ended twenty years ago and had lasted thousands of years. The only reason the wars ended was because of Sage's father Dominic. During a raid on her previous pride he had found Bianca just before one of the Elemental men under his command raped her. He pulled the man from her then helped her to her feet, both Nephalim and Were shared an intense dislike for rape. She promptly kicked his shin and kicked the man who had been about to rape her between the legs. Dominic roared with laughter and let her flee. 

It was during the next raid that he managed to kidnap Bianca, the woman he couldn't get out of his mind. It had taken him weeks of slowly getting her to trust him before he could start to court her, and slowly Bianca had fallen in love. It was her determination to see their people as friends that got Dominic to call a truce. When Sage was born Dominic went further and organised trade relations and had written the Nephalim/Were alliance, giving Nephalim the freedom to travel pack and pride lands and visa versa. 

"Okay," Amy conceded knowing she really had no choice.

"Amy she's a child," Sarge objected.

"She's Nephalim, a War lord princess amongst her own," Amy told him frankly.

Sarge shrugged, he didn't understand, "So?" He questioned.

"So… she can fight better than almost every human in this realm and a good chunk of Were, I have no desire to insult her father and reignite the Were-Nephalim wars," Amy explained. Amy levelled her best glare at Sage, "Lets get something straight, I'm in charge, you obey my orders, if I tell you to get out of the fighting you obey instantly," Amy told her sternly.

Sage sat straighter and bowed her head slightly in submission, "My father would string me up by my thumbs and take a spiked cat and nine tails to my back for disobeying my commander," Sage told her solemnly. The punishment she had stated was the least of all the punishments she knew could be dealt to a soldier who disobeyed an order at any time let alone disobeying an order during a battle, the worst would be a nerve whip lashing.

Sage closed her eyes for a moment, focusing her thoughts to summon her armour from the rack it was set up on in her bedroom. She opened her wings and clapped her hands; form-hugging armour appeared covering her body, her father's crest was blazed across her fitted chest plate. The crest embossed on her chest proclaimed her a War Lord's daughter, a War Lord Princess. The shoulder guards were carefully etched to carry on the crest's design. A linked chain mail shirt was beneath the chest plate, back guard and beneath arm guards. Chain mail encased her legs and went beneath shin guards. 

She opened her eyes for a moment and adjusted a buckle on her chest plate. She closed her wings making sure everything was sitting right. She held out her hands and focused for a moment, her sword appeared. She slung it over her shoulder so it sat between her wings and buckled it up.

She turned to Amy to await her orders.

Amy studied her for a moment as she finished checking her buckles and the way her armour sat. "I want you in the air to see if there are any more snipers near us," Amy ordered.

Sage nodded and opened her wings, bent her knees and jumped high into the air. Her wings started to pump to get her airborne. Several bullets bounced off her well made armour, she tilted her wings dipping down to catch an up draft. She shot up into the air getting her above the sniper.

Susan was doing her best with the limited supplies she had to stabilize the teacher before she was moved. Another, better equipped medical kit was put down beside her. She opened the box and smiled when she found an IV needle and bag. She expertly inserted the needle and taped it down, attached the bag and thrust it into the hands of the nearest SWAT officer.

"If I had known I would be working on civilians I would have packed a better kit," she mumbled to herself as she pulled out a stethoscope and checked the teacher's blood pressure. She tore off her gloves and started to write down what she had done to stabilize her and her vitals. A man walked over with a flat wooden door, two men carefully lifted her onto the door and strapped her down to keep her still.

"Someone has to keep pressure on this wound," Susan told them as they got ready to lift her into the van.

"I'll do it," the only woman in the group said. She pulled on a pair of rubber gloves, hopped into the van and applied pressure to the wound the moment the teacher was in the van.

"Keep her talking," Susan told her as she handed the IV to another SWAT officer already in the van making sure the children were seated and buckled in. The last of the officers jumped in.

Amy sniper to your left, Sage told her.

That is the SWAT sniper, Amy responded.

Sorry my left your right, he is fiddling with his riffle, it might be jammed, Sage told her.

Amy turned to the SWAT commander, "The SWAT sniper is he yours," she asked.

"Yes he is why?" He replied.

"Sniper on that roof," Amy told him pointing to the roof in question.

The commander quickly relayed the information and a shot rang out several moments later.

He is down, Sage informed.

Come back now, Amy told her, then turned to the commander, "That was the last one, you're safe to go," she told him. 

He nodded and tossed them several radios, one for each human and one for Amy as she could transfer orders to the Were mentally. "Your code name is Renegades. Amy you are Renegade one. Our channel for the moment is forty two, if you hear red alert switch over to channel nineteen," he told them as he hoped into his van and pulled the door shut, the van drove off.

Sarge turned to Amy, "Where to now?"

Sage cleared her throat to draw attention to her so she could report, "The heaviest fighting I saw was at the new Were relations building," she told them.

"What did you see?" Sarge asked wondering how observant she really was.

Sage thought for a moment, "About fifty or so heavily armed men holding a storming position around the building, five snipers, three I could see and two I could only hear. They are being held off by about fifteen to twenty people, some police, some Were, and they are being aided by some civilians. They have made a crude barricade," Sage waited for a moment before adding, "Sorry I couldn't be more accurate I only had a glance. I also noticed four ambush points along the most direct route, some fighting down near the police station and another group trying to take the courthouse. They are being held off by court officials and some Were and a smattering of cops." She waited.

Sarge was surprised, all that in a glance, "How did you do that?" He asked, "You were only in the air for what a minute, two at the most," he demanded.

Sage shrugged, "Da has always said I would make a good scout. I remember what I see in a glance. It's not one hundred percent but it's more accurate than a spying mirror."

"Spying Mirror?" Sarge asked wanting her to explain.

Sage nodded, "Any reflective surface will do," she explained as she turned to the side of the bus. She drew a circle on the polished surface then wrote a series of runes in the middle of the circle. The space within the circle shifted the moment she finished writing the last rune. It misted over and slowly a blurred image appeared in the shiny surface, it showed a battle scene, men shooting at what could be called a small group of people huddled behind a planter box.

"See you can't make much fine detail out. My verbal accounts of a glance are more accurate," she told him as she broke the spell by running her fingers through the edge of the circle she had made. The image vanished leaving the reflective yellow surface.

Mac groaned; he knew what Sarge was going to do, "Please not the sewers," he begged.

Sarge smiled taking an almost perverse delight in watching Mac squirm. "Great suggestion Mac. I never would have thought of using the sewers."

Susan snorted trying to contain her laughter. They got ready to leave as the sniper joined them. 

"Mind if I join you," the sniper asked.

Amy nodded and he smiled.

"I'm Ted," he said introducing himself.

Sarge performed introductions making a point to include Sage as a member of their group. A reporter joined them followed closely by his clearly flustered cameraman.

"Can we tag along?" He asked hopefully as he clutched nervously at his microphone. He knew that tagging along with this group would sky rocket his career. "We wont get in the way," he promised.

Amy sighed, she didn't want to, it would put their team in more danger but she nodded. She knew that having a reporter with them would help them in the long run. "Keep behind us at all times, if I tell you to drop, you drop, no questions just do it," she told them firmly.

They nodded quickly accepting those terms easily.

Sarge decided to add his own rules and grabbed the cameraman. He turned and glared at the reporter, "If you even show Amy's shadow you will endanger us. So don't do it. She stays invisible."

Again they both nodded they knew that this was going to be dangerous and they had no desire to make it more so. The reporter put his finger in his ear, creating a tighter seal on the earwig. He listened to a producer who was warning him that they were about to switch back to him. He moved to get Amy out of the shot as his cameraman Dave counted him in.

"This is Ken coming to you live from outside of town hall, as you can hear the fighting has stopped and only moments ago the SWAT van left with the children and the injured teacher. I'm sorry I can't tell you any more. Although the fighting has finished here we can still hear fighting going on in the streets. If you are at home watching this lock your doors and keep down," Ken paused for a moment and watched as they were waiting for him. 

"I've joined up with a mixed bag of warriors the same ones who so bravely risked their own lives to free the teachers and the children who were pinned down by snipers. I'm sorry I can't give a more detailed report at the moment, they are about to move on and they are letting us tag along. I'll give you updates on the fighting as they come to hand. This is Ken for CBS News signing off." He moved out of the cameras field of view. 

The cameraman turned his camera off and got ready to move. Amy walked them to the nearest manhole and lifted it then jumped down. She closed her eyes as she mentally went over her path as she took a few steps away from the ladder. 

The others joined her and waited for her to lead the way. Torches were turned on but kept out of faces as eyes adjusted.

Amy's eyes snapped open and she started to move her feet slipping slightly in the grime beneath her feet. Everyone followed her trying not to think of what was in the water that sloshed around their feet and sometimes up to their waists. When the water got to their waists they had to carry Sage to keep her flight feathers as dry as possible. Sage said her flight feathers could get wet, but Amy wasn't taking any chances. They had no idea if the slime and sludge in the sewer could affect Sage's ability to fly and they knew they would need her eyes in the sky if they were going to avoid ambushes and snipers.

Amy paused at a ladder that lead to a manhole cover and sent her senses up. They were in the general area they needed to be in to get to the Were relations building. Lock-heart climbed the ladder thinking this was the one Amy thought was safe, he tried to move to cover but it failed. 

Amy watched him climb down. She arched an eyebrow at him as he turned to her, "I could have told you it wouldn't have budged," Amy told him. She closed her eyes for a moment and then backtracked to a different ladder. "This one is better," she told everyone.

Lock-heart went up the ladder and pushed the cover up and moved it aside, as he went to climb out. Amy grabbed his ankle before his head could rise out of the hole and yanked him down just as a bullet ricocheted off the asphalt where his hand had just been. He landed in a splash on his backside.

He glared indignantly at Amy.

She smirked as he got to his feet and tried to get the muck from his hands, "I said better not safe," she told him sternly. 

"You could have told me!" Lock-heart demanded.

"You didn't ask," Amy replied.

Sarge chuckled and stepped between them, "No harm done she saved your life, Drifter up and out, Ted see if you can get the smart guy who took a shot at Lock-heart."

They both nodded. Drifter smirked as he walked past Lock-heart, who was cursing under his breath and climbed up the ladder. Ted was up the ladder moments after Drifter. Ted waited for Drifter; Drifter took a deep breath and leapt up and out of the hole. Ted scooted up the remaining rungs and got his riffle up. It took him a moment to locate the source of the shots at Drifter and another moment to aim and fire, Ted's shot didn't miss. He climbed up and looked for another sniper or anyone who would have noticed the death of that particular sniper.




Kiss of the Moon Ch. 10



"Toss me up," Sage told Lock-heart.

"Pardon?" He asked.

"Throw me up and out of the hole so I can get in the air and get scouting," Sage explained.

Lock-heart for a moment felt like telling Sage where to shove her sword but he knew she was right. The moment they knew their battleground and who was where was the moment they would make an attack plan. In simple terms, it would keep them alive.  

He crouched down sliding his hands under her feet. Sage kept her wings closed tight so they would go through without catching. She bent her knees to help so she could push off his extended arms. She rested her hands on his head as he got ready to toss her out.

"One, two, three," Lock-heart counted as he tossed her up. The moment Sage's wings were clear of the opening she opened and pumped her wings forcing herself up as shots bounced off her.

Amy was next up the ladder.

AMY… Wolfgang roared in her mind.

Amy winced and paused on the ladder.

 You said you would meet me at the town hall, where are you now? He growled.

Were relations building, Amy told him.

If you move from that building before I get to you, I will chain you to our bed for a year, he threatened.

Promise? Amy asked seductively.

She felt his growl in response to her comment; it was a mix of anger and pure lust. Amy shivered and finished climbing the ladder. When everyone was out they moved to the edge of the buildings.

They were ignored as they made their way to the safety of the Were and police run barricades before the welcoming entrance of the Were relations building. Sage landed a few moments after they got behind the barricades. She landed near Amy and Sarge to report. 

"Sage point out the snipers to Ted," Sarge commanded.

Sage nodded, she raced to Ted and started to point them out to him.

Amy walked over to the two men who were in charge, one was a police officer the other was one of Amy's staff members, "How are you holding up?" She asked them.

"We are beginning to run low on ammo," the police officer replied.

Amy nodded and turned to Ted, "Ted what is your teams name?"

"Cougars," he replied as he lined up his shot.

Amy grabbed her radio, she checked her channel and pressed the button and brought the microphone to her mouth, "Cougar One this is Renegade One come in over," Amy said into her radio.

"Renegade One this is Cougar One reading you over," crackled out of her radio.

"We're at the heaviest fighting, we are running low on ammo. Can we get assistance over?" Amy asked.

"Renegade one assistance will be there in ten. Standing by," he signed off.

"Renegade One this is Rough necks, hear you need some assistance over," An unfamiliar voice said.

Amy grabbed her radio. "No offence Rough necks, but I don't know you. Over."

"Forgive me ma'am, I know times are turbulent at the moment. My name is Simon Watson," was his reply.

"Watson," Sarge barked into his radio, "Who are you taking your orders from?" Sarge asked.

"No one at present. I shot my Major, he locked down the base and told us we were going to join the fray, we asked about our targets and he said target anyone who looks Were. I shot him knowing the President doesn't want this," Simon replied.

Sarge glanced to Amy, "I've fought with Watson twice, he's a good man Amy."

"I also have the supplies meant for the men who started this," Watson said hoping to sweeten the pot when he got not immediate response. His men wanted to fight, were ready to fight.

Amy nodded to Sarge, giving him the go ahead to tell Simon where they were. 

"Were relations building, Know it?" Sarge told him.

"Yes, ETA five minutes. Rough necks standing by," Simon said.

"Renegades standing by," Sarge replied.

Amy glanced around looking for Sage; she wanted to know what was going on. She spotted Sage leant up against a car eating a muesli bar as she waited for her next set of orders.

"Sage, get airborne. Tell me what you see," Amy told her.

Sage finished stuffing the last of her food in her mouth as she stood. She quickly washed it down and jumped into the air.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 10



Amy… Mac and Sarge… I'm sorry they didn't make it, Wolfgang told her.

Amy felt her control on her beast slip. She tried to hold onto her human form but the Sabre wanted out, it wanted to rip and kill the men who had striped Sage of her mother and Amy of her friends. It wanted to fight to tear and to avenge the lives of those the men had so carelessly decided weren't worth living but Amy didn't release her control.

Amy's muscles tense as she started to shift. Normally she felt compelled to drop to all fours when she shifted, this time however it didn't matter. Her clothes tore under the strain of her growing size, her feet lengthened and turned into paws. She shifted her feet to better her ability to stand as she had to stand on her toes. Muscles bunched as they rearranged.

Amy's arms grew as did her body, skin tore under the strain of her developing size. Her hands turned into massive paws as her breasts shrunk to become almost invisible. Her neck widened to support her head as white fur erupted all over her body. Her head crunched and grew into that of a cat. As normal it was her teeth which grew last, they lengthened to normal size maybe a little longer.

Amy panted when her change was complete. The shield, which Alanna could no longer hold, dropped leaving Amy, Sage, Susan and the girl to the mercy of the enemy. Amy roared her fury, the glass windows closest to her shattered. Several of the enemy paused in their shooting, a couple even wet themselves as their eyes focused on the massive Were. Sage went to take flight and Susan started to fire. The little girl hugged Amy's leg in fear.

Susan turned to the little girl as she felt the tingling vanish, "Get ready to let her go and run. I'll protect you," Susan told her firmly.

She nodded quickly, she wanted out of here.

"RUN," Susan yelled as she scrambled to her feet and ran after the little girl. Susan scooped the little girl up when they got to the barricade and rolled over the barricades. She glanced back to see where Amy and Sage were. Sage was in the air and Amy was charging the enemy.

Several dropped their arms and fled not wanting to meet the fury of this creature.

Amy tore through them her paws made short work of armoured vests, flesh and bone. Bullets that were fired at her were nothing more than a stinging annoyance. Everyone watched as she knocked men out and destroyed weapons. Men who didn't stay down she killed with no remorse. Blood matted in her white fur making her look even more deadly. 

Sage landed behind a man who had a sword and had snuck up on Amy intending to take a swing at her. Sage tapped his shoulder with her sword and they started to fight. Sage knocked him out with the handle of her sword and turned to guard Amy's back as she continued her rampage. Other Were had joined the fray wanting to finish this now.

An hour later Amy dragged the leader from his decimated line. She roared to the skies, she roared her victory and her grief at loosing her friends. She dumped the leader before Wolfgang who waited to see what she would do next.

Slowly almost reluctantly her body started to shift back into its human form.

"What are you?" The leader asked as she finished her shift.

Amy quivered for a moment; her mind was foggy. She frowned for a moment, "I am what I'm not yet I'm not what I am," Amy said before she dropped into a dead faint.

She never struck the ground.

**One year later…**

Grey-hawk quickly made his way to his seat knowing he was late but it was almost impossible to get anywhere near here in a taxi, as all the streets for several blocks in any direction had been closed down. He glanced around and smiled when he saw Cass seated near Amy. He would know her anywhere, he told himself. His wolf roused from his daytime slumber as he sat near Cass, he leant forward and smiled at her. 

Cass smiled and turned to him, "Hi Grey-hawk," she greeted.

"Cass, how have you been?" Grey-hawk asked, his eyes quickly roamed over her, she was more beautiful than he remembered; she had lost that slightly haunted look of her abuse. Her hair was left loose today in red waves and curls. His black eyes locked with her hazel ones for a moment and he felt his wolf start to pace in his mind, wanting to come out and smell her, to see if she was his ultimate match.

"Good, I've spent most of the year at my grand da's ranch," she answered. 

"So have you moved back to the city," Grey-hawk asked.

Cass nodded, "Amy offered me a job as her P.A a few weeks back, with the cubs so close she says she needs the help with everything she's doing," she said, excitement about her new job clear in her voice.

Grey-hawk frowned, "If you needed a job I could have helped you out? My company is always in need of good staff."

Cass smirked, "No… I can't work for the man I intend to date," she told him. She stood and walked off as her phone had started to buzz.

Grey-hawk smiled to himself as he watched her leave; she wanted to date him. His wolf settled, he would get his chance to smell her soon enough. Grey-hawk turned to Wolfgang who was seated across from him. Wolfgang smiled and winked.

Everyone settled as Bob stood before the microphone. Directly behind him a large covered statue drew everyone's attention, granite walls curved around the statue in a perfect semi circle. The names of those who had died, both the innocent and the fighters were engraved and highlighted in gold making the names stand out against the black granite, a sad reminder of the cost of war. Bob had decided against separating the Were and Others from the humans so they were mingled together. A small letter next to each name; H, W or O, were the only indication of race.

Bob cleared his throat and smiled, "Hello everyone, today has great meaning, this hour has great meaning. A year ago today we decided our futures…"

Amy took a deep breath as she rested a hand on her swollen abdomen hoping the added pressure would make the cubs settle down, it felt as if they were having a royal rumble inside her. Wolfgang's hand joined hers on her belly; his hand inched forward and linked his fingers with hers.

You okay? He asked her silently knowing that the cubs could come any day now.

Fine… I just wish they would stop using my kidneys as punching bags, she replied.

Wolfgang smiled and turned his attention back to Bob who was giving a speech about what had happened here a year ago today. They had chosen shortly after the dust settled and the last of the leaders were rounded up that a memorial for all those who died had to be built. Since it was the only building that had been destroyed, it was quickly decided that the building the fates had hated would be the site of the memorial.

Bob had decided it would be best to mix the ceremony, blending human and Were traditions, since the Others tended to have the same beliefs Were did. A funeral mound had been built off to the side; each log had one name carved into it, one log for every person killed. Elders sat around the burning mound Wolfgang and Bob had lit earlier; it would be their responsibility to continue the ceremony through to completion. Bob knew however that a more permanent memorial had to be built, so a statue had been commissioned and the war memorial built.

Amy took a deep breath and shifted in her seat feeling uncomfortable. Her mind refused to focus on anything other than the fact that the triplets were being demanding and they weren't even out of her yet. She felt restless, as if something was going to happen she just couldn't decide what it was. Taliesin and Mryddin had both explained that Amy's abilities would be off during her pregnancy; that her normally reliable senses should not be relied upon.

"So without further drawing this out, I call upon Amy to come and reveal the statue for the memorial," Bob said loudly snapping Amy out of her daze.

Amy turned and sighed. Wolfgang stood and helped her to her feet as getting up and out of chairs had become difficult. Amy walked up to the dais with the slight waddle of her late pregnancy, she winced as she felt a cramp ripple through her body starting in her belly. She closed her eyes for a moment as she went to walk up the few steps, now… you choose now to make your way into the world, she complained as she mounted the steps and walked up to Bob.

Bob picked up her hands and brought them to his nose, "How much longer?" He asked.

"About twelve hours," Amy told him seriously as she released his hands and walked over to the covered statue; she wanted to get this done as fast as possible as she did not know how quickly her labour might progress. Amy reached up and pulled the cloth from the statue then stepped back to admire the well-made bronze statue. 

She was in the middle of the group, in full saber/human hybrid form; her mouth was open mid roar, showing her deadly teeth in all their fierce glory. A young girl was hugging her leg and Susan was lying at Amy's feet with several bullet wounds in her chest, firing a gun. Sage was poised ready to take flight, her wings partially open, her legs bent and her sword ready in her hand, a cut marred the side of her face from a sword graze.

Amy remembered vividly this scene, she had just turned Susan, to keep her alive; Susan had taken several bullets saving the girl who hugged Amy's leg. Amy had gone almost into a rage and shifted into her hybrid form after turning Susan, she then ran rampant on the enemy.

I am what I'm not and I'm not what I am, the first words she spoke after she slid back into her human form and one of the men she had spared asked her what she was. I am what I'm not and I'm not what I am, that sentence taunted her, she knew it was the answer, but she didn't know the question.

The little girl who had hugged Amy's leg that day stood beside Sage. Her parent's had been killed but Wolfgang and Amy had quickly found her a home with Sienna and Gillian. It didn't matter that she was human and she was going to a Were family, all that mattered was she would be safe and loved. Amy stepped aside, not that she really had to the statue was twice the size of life.

She went to the microphone, "Bertrand Russell once said, War does not determine who is right, only who is left. War was what some wanted but they were not the ones left behind to clean up the mess they created; we did. Win, loose… even those who are victorious loose," Amy gestured back at the names, "Families were broken, parents lost their children and children lost their parents. But we came together, fought together, we did the one thing that they didn't think we could do," Amy paused her eyes scanning the crowd, some people were crying. "Those who fought are more than heroes, more than patriots. There is no name for what those people are. Hopefully a name will never have to be made, hopefully this will never happen again; that we have learnt from it." Amy took a deep breath feeling the pain of a contraction ripple through her.

"Life is a gift we will not waste,

Together we fought,

So together we live.

Friends as it should be,

To those who died,

You will not be forgotten," Amy finished.

"We will not forget," was echoed by the Were present.

Amy gripped the dais as another contraction rippled through her. Wolfgang joined her as others started to walk around the memorial. Wolfgang wrapped an arm around Amy's shoulders and kissed her forehead.

"Do you miss Sarge?" Wolfgang asked gently, Amy didn't like to talk about the friends she had lost. After hearing that Sarge and Mac were dead Amy couldn't let Susan die, it was the reason Susan was now something, no one knew what yet as Susan was only bitten once. Once was enough to save her life, and once was enough to turn her, albeit slowly, Susan was only beginning to show Were tendencies a year later.

"He isn't dead, he's just not here," was her response.

Wolfgang gathered her into his arms and hugged her, and felt her quiver, "What's wrong Amy?" He asked gently.

"Wolfgang…" Amy pressed her face against his chest as another contraction rippled through her; they were coming faster.

"Amy…" Wolfgang stepped back, "Is it the cubs?" He asked.

Amy nodded, "Quickly."

Wolfgang scooped her up, "BASTION," he called out as he carried Amy down.

Bastion appeared out of the crowd, "Yes…"

"The cubs are coming get the car and call Nathanael," Wolfgang ordered at Bastion's fleeing back, the moment Wolfgang had said cubs Bastion had turned to get the car. 

Susan rushed over to her, "What's wrong?" She asked.

"Nothing, the cubs are coming that's all," Amy told her. "Wolfgang put me down," Amy told him.

"No…" he snapped back at her.

Amy sighed as the car slowly came forward. Wolfgang bundled her into the car and raced around to get in, he was excited and nervous at the same time. He had children but these were different, they were half Amy and half him; his first cubs.

"Sage, Keira, we have to go," Susan called out. Sage and Keira raced forward, Keira hugged Susan as Sage got into the car. Susan bundled Sage in then moved to wedge Amy between Wolfgang and herself and offered her hand to Amy for comfort and for her to hold and squeeze.

"What's wrong Amy?" Keira asked.

"The cubs are coming," Amy told her gently. 

Keira turned to Sage, "You're going to have little brothers and or sisters." 

Sage nodded she knew, "Yeah crying in the middle of the night, disrupting my sleep."

Wolfgang glared at Sage playfully, "You live down the hall with Alanna, you won't hear anything."

Sage smiled, "Yeah when Alanna doesn't keep me up."

They got to the town house Wolfgang had brought to replace the apartment, as it wasn't big enough for their rapidly expanding family. Electra was waiting for them with the front door wide. Wolfgang carried Amy in and was followed in by everyone else. They were all eager for the new cubs to come into the world.

"I've prepared your room," Electra told Wolfgang.

Wolfgang nodded and carried Amy up to their room. Nathanael walked in and smiled at everyone who was waiting in the common room.

"About time they decided to make their appearances. Has anyone told Taliesin, Mryddin, Vivian and Rhiannon?" Nathanael asked.

Electra nodded, "I did the moment Bastion hung up on me. They're on their way."

"Good. Susan will you be assisting me?" Nathanael asked.

Susan nodded and turned to Keira, "Behave."

"You aren't my mother…" Keira began; she stopped when Sienna walked in.

"She's your Aunt and you will listen to her," Sienna told her, "Now what's the hub bub?"

"The cubs are coming," Sage said excitedly.

Sienna smiled and went upstairs to kick Wolfgang out of his room, traditionally mates weren't allowed at the birth because the one giving birth had a tendency to try to kill their mate. Nathanael and Susan followed. Bastion was busy organising towels and hot water and anything else that might be needed. 

Wolfgang glared indignantly at Sienna as he walked down stairs to join the others who would wait patiently for the birth. He resigned himself to the wait like everyone else not allowed at the birth. He knew he was not going to be present at the birth, although he wished he could watch the love of his life give birth to the proof of their love but tradition even in his very modern pack was hard to break.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 11



Alanna smiled, "Go on we'll be up in ten."

Wolfgang smiled; he appreciated that. He climbed the stairs quickly; Vivian held open the door as the last of the women involved in the birth left Amy in peace. Wolfgang walked in; Vivian gently shut the door behind him. Amy was lying on her side, her eyes were closed as she tried to get as much sleep or rest as possible. Wolfgang put the tray of food down and sat on the bed next to her. He gently stroked her face, moving a few strands of hair that fell over her eyes.

He felt a surge of renewed love for Amy; she had given him such a precious gift. Since she had crashed into his life he couldn't imagine it without her. She was as important to him as his wolf, she was his love, his wife, his mate and mother of his children. He leant down to brush his lips against the corner of her mouth. Amy turned and kissed him; she had felt every emotion from him so strong, she wanted to show him how much she loved him in return. Wolfgang growled gently, he wanted to love her, to show her how happy he was that she had given him children.

He broke the kiss and smiled, "I brought you food, you missed lunch and dinner."

Amy smirked, she knew that wasn't the whole reason he brought her food. Every mate took food to their other after they gave birth, it was an instinct bred into them from the days when they lived in caves and spent most of their time as animals. By supplying their mate with food they ensured their mate's survival and the survival of their offspring.

"And I have a gift for you," he pulled the velvet box out and gave it to Amy. He watched her closely hoping she would like the gift. Amy gave him an inquisitive look as she took the box, she didn't know he was planning a gift for her. She sat up letting the blankets fall. Wolfgang's hand reached out and cupped one of her full breasts and squeezed gently, feeling their heaviness with milk. Amy slapped his hand away and opened the velvet box. Three little hearts rested on blue velvet in the box. 

Amy frowned and turned to him, she didn't understand the significance of the gift.

Wolfgang smiled at her puzzlement, some mates gave gifts that had no true meaning, these little hearts had meaning, he had another three already made and engraved with Electra, Alanna and Sage's names but she wouldn't get them until later in the week, when she had settled with the new cubs. "Each time you give birth I will give you a heart, we'll put their names on them and their dates of birth and then they go on your waist-let," Wolfgang explained.

Amy smiled, she grabbed the monkey fist attached to his collar and pulled him down for a kiss. Wolfgang growled and fisted a hand into her hair as he deepened the kiss. His tongue brushed her lips, Amy moaned and opened her mouth. Their tongues duelled in each other's mouths. Alanna, Sage and Electra popped their heads in to congratulate their mother and father on the new additions. They smiled at their parents and their antics, then walked in carrying their own gift for the cubs. Amy broke the kiss and turned to the girls who smiled as they held up the mobile they had made.

Amy's jaw dropped in surprise; the mobile was made of feathers and crystals. The feathers Amy knew were Sage's, the crystals most likely came from the crystal cave hidden in the forest around the manor, the one Alanna had found and the leather work was done by Electra as she loved to work leather. Amy smiled as the girls set it up over the crib the cubs were in. There were three cribs but the cubs started to fuss the moment they realized they were alone in the crib so everyone decided just to leave them together knowing that they would grow out of it.

Amy gestured to the girls; they came forward so she could hug them. Wolfgang smiled and went to his cubs to look at them, letting the girls and Amy hug. He gently stroked the face of one of his daughters; she made a little noise and shifted slightly. He leant in and took a deep breath, new cub smell filled his senses and he smiled. He heard the door close and glanced up to find Alanna, Sage and Electra had left and Amy was eating the food Bastion had made up for her.

Wolfgang went and had a quick shower; it had been a day of many excitements. He dried off and grabbed a pair of boxers. He joined Amy on the bed, he watched her eat almost obsessively. He stole titbits from her plate. Amy smiled as she finished. Wolfgang put the plate on the bedside table; he knew that by morning the tray will have vanished by way of Bastion. 

He slid under the blankets with Amy and pulled her close, he wanted to hold her to reassure himself she was safe and well. He had been afraid for Amy, subconsciously he knew she was immune to death and his fear was groundless but he couldn't help himself. He had felt her pain when it was at it's most intense; he had felt her weariness and even her own fear through their bond. He was relieved that Amy and the cubs were fine but he knew he would experience this fear whenever Amy was setting to whelp.





Kiss of the Moon Ch. 11



Amy smirked, "You're loosing your touch Taliesin, Sage and Wolfgang gave me the answer moments after you vanished."

Taliesin glared at her, "I like to feel the riddle before answering."

Amy shrugged, "So what's the answer? What eats and grows but does not live?"

"Fire," Taliesin declared and Amy nodded. "Do you have another for me?" Taliesin asked hopefully.

Amy thought for a moment, "Okay, What comes without being asked, then is gone without being stolen."

Taliesin thought for a moment then smiled, he liked Amy's riddles, they took him time to figure out, like Thais Amy liked simple answers to complex questions, "I'll make her a tea, she's going to be tender when she shifts back."

Amy nodded. 

"Lets just hope she doesn't experience weakness," Wolfgang said, Amy jumped startled. Wolfgang smiled pleased that he had been able to sneak up on Amy, "Nathanael's here, he wants to look you over."

Amy glared at him, "You just want to jump back into my pants," She accused.

Wolfgang nodded, "Yep tonight if he gives you the all clear."

Amy rolled her eyes. She got up and put the cubs in the stroller. Wolfgang scooped Susan up and followed Amy into the house with Taliesin.

Nathanael frowned as he studied the black Sabre-tooth tiger in Wolfgang's arms, "Susan?" He asked.

Wolfgang nodded.

"I'll get the drink ready as soon as I've inspected Amy," Nathanael told him.

"Can I watch, I want to see if the tea I was thinking of is similar to what you would prepare," Taliesin asked.

Nathanael nodded, "Of course. In fact I want to see what you would prepare, maybe we can come up with something better," Nathanael rolled the cubs off to Anna and guided Amy into a treatment room. He closed the door behind him.

"Okay Amy how are you feeling?" He asked.

"Fine…" Amy answered as she hopped onto the bed. She pulled her top up and laid back. Nathanael undid her pants and rested his hands on her. He closed his eyes and focused, calling on his powers. Amy's body had healed well, she could have started sleeping with Wolfgang weeks ago but Nathanael had decided to be nice and let her have some peace from her mate although he knew she would have gotten little peace from Wolfgang. 

"Okay… I can't keep him from you any longer; enjoy yourselves tonight. I'm sure Anna would love to watch the cubs," Nathanael commented he knew how much Anna had come to love Amy's children.

Amy smiled and did her pants up. She hopped off the bed and pulled her shirt down. They walked out of the room. Wolfgang was pacing as she walked out. He didn't need to hear Nathanael confirm it, if Amy was still healing Nathanael would have walked out to tell Wolfgang Amy was still off limits. They wouldn't have come out together. Wolfgang didn't bother with pleasantries, he grabbed Amy and flung her over his shoulder and practically ran her to their room although no one would have batted an eyelid if Wolfgang had walked her to the nearest couch to have his way with her.

Taliesin chuckled, "Does he ever not think about sleeping with Amy?" 

Nathanael chuckled, "Give him a hundred years, he'll slow down… he should at least."

"Now… Susan," Taliesin slid in reminding Nathanael of their earlier conversation.

Nathanael nodded, "I need to know what triggered the shift."

"Amy pulled the beast out… it was too deep for Susan to pull out herself," Taliesin answered.

Nathanael nodded, "Forced, so… the same drink I made Amy," Nathanael said as he lead Taliesin into his treatment room.
