gods?” Jordan asked.
“We can shift into any species, however the strongest, most feared animal forms are the Lion, Panther, Wolf and Grizzly. This spell calls upon them only. However there is much to prepare that will go with the chant.” Erza said.
Jordan felt excitement roll through her entire body. A new energy that she hadn’t felt before and then she smiled and said, “Let’s do it. We have nothing to lose.
Chapter 6
––––––––
T hree days had passed since Jordan met Erza that first day. The memories that flooded her mind after the spell was lifted were overwhelming and often confusing to say the least. She would have to ask Mama Crone or Asher to explain what they meant. All of the memories of her as a child, playing with her sister, with Asher and Declan were happy memories. She was now able to remember her mother and father. Their love and kindness and all that they had taught her and Sonja. She had so many emotions hit her at once on the first day her memories came back, she sat with Erza and her grandmother and just cried for the family she lost but now remembered. The fact she would never be able to see them again enraged her.
Erza had explained that she had delivered most babies on Kodiak Island, including her parents, Jordan and Sonja. That they were always very close. She met many of the Kodiaks as Asher showed her different parts of the Island.
Erza explained that even though the curse was lifted and that her memories were starting to comeback, she would feel overwhelmed and to just take her time and things would work themselves out. She remembered very clearly, her and her sister being able to shift with ease and confidence. Erza explained that her inner animal would still be suppressed until she mated with her soul mate. The one that was meant for her.
A chosen Kodiak of noble blood.
Asher Slater.
Erza explained that Mama Sable had taken a chance hoping that Jordan’s love for Noah would be enough for the mating to work, however when Noah was killed and then replaced with Jude, there was no chance at all.
Jordan sat on a rock on the edge of the Island looking out at the sea when she felt a hand on her arm. She looked up to see Asher kneeling down beside her. “Come with me. I want to show you something.” He said smiling.
Jordan stood and followed him off the rocks and into the forest. There was a clearing with an old shack that had every type of flower scattered everywhere. “What is this place?”
“You don’t remember?” He said lifting an eyebrow.
Jordan shook her head. She had so many memories that it was hard to remember them all.
“This is where we used to play as kids. The four of us. Declan, Sonja and us.” He said smiling.
She watched as Asher stood before her with a wicked grin plastered on his face and then he ripped his shirt off. He gathered the material in his large, strong hands and threw it to the ground. His chest was a dark caramel color from the sun; smooth, and laced with hard muscles.
“What are you doing?” She asked feeling the heat rise throughout her body.
Jordan watched as Asher's eyes locked with hers. He reached for the button on his denim jeans, and then unzipped them. He pushed his jeans past his narrow hips in one strong gesture.
She was mesmerized as he stood there completely naked in front of her, a smell of confidence wafted through the air. He was stunning in every aspect and his body was lean and threaded with muscles that rippled beneath his skin when he moved. She watched as his body, his muscles started to reform beneath the skin and a moment later she was staring at a gorgeous black panther. His paws were huge, with long claws; his fur was midnight black and his eyes were large amber orbs. Asher stretched and a low rumble emerged as he moved his body against her leg. He then sat back on his hind legs and stared at her.
Jordan kneeled and then sat down beside him. Her fingers raked through his fur along his neck. It
