Chapter 84
**Alpha Andrew's POV**
I knew my mate would suspect I was meddling in Brocks life. Not that I wasn't...I was. He was one of my best friends. He still hadn't met his second chance mate. It started when I got the requests for transfers from the Arctic Plaines Pack, our farthest North Pack.
I had felt the Goddess herself, had handed me a golden opportunity. Then I saw the Hybrid Wolf credentials. A Master Battle Historian and a Master Strategist Trainer.
Her Pack actually held her in very high regard. I was surprised at her age. I shouldn't have been, the amount of years it took to gain those titles, was large. Her picture showed a very attractive but innocent wolf.
Till I got ahold of her training videos, the attractiveness remained, but the innocents left. Leaving behind a brutal and very powerful fighter. She would be a very good asset to our Pack.
I had also thought, if this Hybrid hadn't found their mate all this time, maybe they could find their mate here. It did no one any harm if that mate turned out to be Brock. With that hope, I extended a job offer and fast-tracked the Transfer.
Now she was here and something told me the Goddess wanted her here. So I hugged my mate close to me, even though she still wore that narrow-eyed, pursed-lipped, speculating look.
"Sam I'd like you to meet my mate Luna Ember Shadow Moonstar," I said introducing my mate to her.
"It's an honor to meet you Luna Ember Shadow Moonstar, and you Alpha Andrew Fire Moonstar," she said in a proper greeting.
She was old enough to have learned to greet others using their title, their first and second given name, and their surname. It was only after the first greeting she would allow herself to use a more familiar greeting when addressing anyone thereafter.
"It's an honor to meet you too Samantha Arctic Bearhunter." my mate said to her.
"I'd like you to take up your new position immediately, you'll be working alongside our Elite Master Trainer. He's currently at the Pack Training Grounds behind the House right now. He's training our children at the moment." I told her. "I've already arranged a suite of rooms for you in our Community Pack Wing here."
"Thank you, Alpha Andrew," she said with a smile.
We did the blood oath, making her Transfer Complete. She could go back to her original Pack if she wanted to after this. But I had a good feeling she won't. We sent her off in the direction of the Training Arena after all was said and done.
My mate looked at me with a raised eyebrow "What?" I asked in feigned innocence.
"Like you don't know what," she said back, chuckling I pulled my mate into my arms and kissed her. 'Goddess love this female'.
"Now, I'm going to have a late, patio lunch arranged and set up for all of those, soon to be, hungry pups." She said to me.
She turned and walked off, her hips swaying her beautiful ass at me with a beckoning call.
**Alora's POV**
Our group gathered under and against the Willow Tree, facing the koi pond. Damien sat with his back against the Willow's trunk, with me sitting in front of him between his legs.
He wrapped his strong arms around my waist and held my back to his front. His groin was pressed against my bottom. I lay my head back against one of his shoulders and closed my eyes, allowing myself to focus on the energy here.
I instantly felt peace flow through me, letting my stress melt away, taking in deep breaths of cleansing air. I shared my peace with my Mate and Clan members. I sent it out along with all those bonded to me, sharing the peace I was feeling.
I built up their spirits and cleansed their auras. I shared the energy this place gave me, boosting my Clan's energy. I kept doing this for a few moments when I felt satisfied I opened my eyes.
Kass and Bella, and all my new siblings were staring at me in wide-eyed surprise. As were my new Clan members. Confused, I asked "What?"
"You used Spirit magic." Said Kass
"That's extremely rare, only someone from the Original Bloodlines can use it." said Bella.
"I am of an Original Bloodline, it’s why I was able to take on the Clan name Heartsong and become the Clan's Alpha." I told them.
"You kidding?" Kassandra’s tone was one of astonishment.
"Our Clan Alpha, your sister, is a Luna Princess." Beatrice told Kassandra.
I didn't know what happened....one moment I heard Kass gasp in surprise and the next...I was someplace else.
The courtyard was gone. There was just the Alpha's Wing of the Pack House left. The Training Grounds were gone too. The only part of the garden left was the pond. The Willow was gone too.
The land was cleared in a wide swath surrounding the Pack House. A thick Forest was the surrounding barrier. The sun was about to set, the sky was orange, pink, purple, and blue, and the clouds were saturated in colors.
It was so beautiful. Standing in front of the pond were two people. I gasped when I focused on them. The female looked like Luna Blood-Moon Heartsong. The male standing behind her looked like Damien only with green cinnamon-rimed eyes and long waist-length black hair. His skin was a dark golden brown.
Luna had a long floor-length purple velvet renaissance gown with a sweetheart neckline and long draping sleeves. The neckline, sleeves, and bottom of the dress were trimmed with silver Celtic knots.
A belt of silver cloth, embroidered with the same Celtic knots, draped over her hips, the tie in front, the extra cloth trailing down the front ending around her knees.
The male was wearing a red loose and billowy long-sleeved tunic, the laces at his chest open. The shirt was tucked into a pair of black leather leggings, and he was wearing knee-high black leather boots with buckles on the side.
"Lucian Blackfire" Luna's voice was tinny and echoing, like a memory of the past. "If you could have your ashes spread anywhere....where would you have them spread?" I assumed the male was Lucian Blackfire.
It was confirmed when the male spoke. He was standing behind Luna with his arm around her waist. "Wherever your ashes are spread my mate, are where mine will be." his voice was deep and had the same tinny echo to it. This was definitely a moment of the past. "I will live for and with you till the day the Goddess calls us both home together." he told her.
She turned in his arms and raised a hand to his cheek, giving him a soft loving smile. I wanted to be spread around the Willow tree my mother and father planted for me at my birth, and here." she said to him.
"Then we will plant a seedling from that Willow Tree here, and have our ashes spread around both." He said, a soft loving look coming from that hard face. "I will forever be by your side for the rest of eternity." he told her, then leaned down to kiss her. That's when I saw their marks. A Celtic knot pictograph of a Howling Wolf sitting inside a Crescent Moon, a star-shaped knot in the middle of the moon.
It couldn't be.... "I'll love you for all eternity my darling, my heart's song only for you." said Luna to Lucian.
His reply "I shall listen to your heart's song and sing with it, for all eternity....my Starlight." his echoing voice faded along with the moment of the past at his spoken endearment to Luna, returning me to the present.
I sat there blinking, stunned. That moment of the past, those mating marks.... I reached up and brushed my fingers along my mark, the same one Luna had on her neck. The matching mark on Damien's neck. Could it be? Are we really?
"Damien" I paused, not sure how to ask, drawing everyone’s eyes to me.
"Yes?" he said questioningly.
"Do you know of a Lucian Blackfire?" I asked him. The others gave me confused looks at my question to Damien.
"I do," he said in a surprised voice. "He's an ancestor from my father's side, father's mother was a Blackfire," he told me.
"What can you tell me about him," I asked, I felt his confusion at my questions through the bond.
"He lived thousands of years ago. He was an Alpha Wolf descended from one of the Moon Goddesses' original wolves. His fated mate was Luna Blood-Moon Heartsong, when he died he carried the name Alpha Lucian Blackfire Heartsong." Damien said he kissed the top of my head.
"Do you have any stories about them?" I asked him.
"I do, there is a family legend, would you like to hear it?" he asked me.
I tilted my head back to look up at him, he was looking down at me with a soft loving expression in those blue-storm gray-rimmed eyes. I hold his gaze for a moment "I would love to hear the Legend." I say softly.
