SCOTT POV
EMMETT POVI shove my hands in my jeans as I walk through another clothing store. I stare at every female human that I pass. I am desperately trying to lock eyes or smell an intoxicating smell. This store is full of lingerie and packed with women of both species.I focus my attention on the humans. According to the moon goddess who visited me when I was younger, I will have a human Luna. A perfect balance to my strength and power.I am a huge wolf. I tower over others with my 6'5" frame. And my 230lb body is solid muscle. I have met very few Alphas as big as I am. Even my dark grey wolf is a monster of muscle. He is the biggest wolf I have ever seen and he fills my chest with pride.Many Alphas are terrified of my power. It's not my fault that it seems to fill the air around me. But many of them now I am a very fair wolf.I never go to war without a just reason and I never kill an innocent. But my obvious strength is still intimidating. The moon goddess
SCOTT POVLisa is wearing her typical work clothes as usual, and Iwant to pull my hair out. I am dressed in a pair of nice jeans and a black polo. I did put my steel toe boots on, but we are supposed to be looking professional. We need this job. And my sister/business partner is dressed like she just climbed out of the workshop.She has on one of dad's old flannels and a pair of ripped paint-stained pants. She is wearing a grey tank and left the flannel unbuttoned and flowing. Her hair is in a ponytail under a paint smears baseball cap. I have given up arguing with her. We have already discussed it for over an hour. She is still mad we are going against dad and doesn't care if we lose this job.We can not be late, so I give up. At least the wolves will see Lisa's dedication to her work. My sister is the foreman of all our jobs. She runs the jobs with ease. I am the office guy. I hold interviews, and I fire the workers she deemed unfit, I hand
EMMETT POVI wake up and stretch. Last night we had a few rogues on thesouthern border. The chase and capture took three hours of my precious sleep.I get dressed in a black shirt and dark wash jeans. Clint and Michael are waiting for me downstairs. We have to interrogate the wolves today and dispose of them before the contractors get here.Moira already has breakfast on the table by the time I come downstairs. Pancakes, bacon, sausage, and fresh orange juice."Moira teach Abbs how to cook, please," Michael says while inhaling a sausage.I stiffen at the mention of Abigail. She is Michael's older sister and my father's old Deltas daughter. My wolf has been pacing this morning and the mention of the she-wolf that touched us last night has him growling. I hate dealing with him on days where we have to handle rogues. Having an Alpha wolf in your head is hard."Clint, Michael, let's go. Praise Moira on her cooking later," I orde
LISA POVAfter Scott dropped me off at the house, I changed quickly. I couldn't wait to let my pent-up anger out. Who does that Alpha think he is. He acted like I wasn't capable and then followed my every movement.I grab my phone, keys and head out the door. I jump into our old Honda Civic and head to Max's gym. I am so ready to exhaust my body and mind.Being physical is something that comes naturally to me. As kids Scott and I were competitive. But as we aged, Scott's drive for the competitions vanished.As he changed, I stayed the same. I never stepped out of my comfort zones. I am a little jealous of Scott and his successful advances. Jealous but also incredibly proud. Unfortunately, right now, he blames himself for our money problems. He thinks because he chose a bad year to take a loan out, it is somehow wholly his fault. He is shrinking into his office, and I don't know how to pull him out. The business is essential to both of us, b
LISA POVMate. A word that tore my family apart. A word that left my father a single dad. I will never know if my mother was kept fromvisiting us or chose to stay away herself. It hurts to think it might have been her decision.I don't want to be a mate. I don't want any relationship, period. I want my family business to succeed and to feel accomplished in the ring. I don't want to feel an unexplainable bond with a stranger. I don't even know if I would like a romantic relationship with a person who isn't a stranger. I need to focus on helping my brother, keeping our company in the black, and enjoying my free time. From my experience, love hurts. My father was broken when his wife chose a bond over him.I stand up and look at Mr. Wolf Man. He is handsome. Dark brown, almost black hair, Chocolate rich eyes that warm your soul, a short beard that pulls attention to his jawline, and a sexy HUGE body. Truly a man that could star in every girl's f
LISA POVI double-check the supply truck. Most of all, the lumber has arrived, and I have enough hands to get this job underway. Alpha Emmett has faxed Scott three layouts for the small family homes. He wants 20 homes built, and we are to rotatethe designs between the three blueprints.All three designs have a front porch and an open concept living room and kitchen. This tells me the members here value family time.I know the families are itching to have their own space. So my men and I have our work cut out for us.I drive the flatbed semi loaded with lumber to the front gates of Riverstone. I made sure before leaving that every truck that arrived today has our company logo.Until the wolves learn our scents, we need to make sure our vehicles stand out. I don't want any of my men being mistaken for trespassers.I want to have three homes framed out this week at least. I made two groups of five and then a g
Mature chapter. My first ever mature scene. Bare with me.EMMETT POVLisa and her workers did not eat lunch in the packhouse today. I was extremelydisappointed, but I understand. She feels like sheneeds to protect her crew. I still can't believe Alpha reacted that way yesterday.Time is passing by so slowly. The paperwork is a jumbled mess in my mind, and nothing has been done for hours. All I can do is sit in my office and wait until 5 pm. I have waited five years for my mate, and now that I know her, I don't want to waste another second. Her honeysuckle wood scent is all over the territory now. And Alpha is in scent heaven.Finally, it is 4:45, and I can head to the job site. I make a stop in the restroom to check my appearance. Last night I had decided to shave off my well-maintained beard. I wanted to see if she reacted to my change.Seeing my current state in the mirror is disappointing. I have faint blue ba
R RATED CHAPTERLISA POVOne minute he is just a customer with a sexy body who has a thing for me. The next, my body is exploding with fire and desire. The minute I touched him, tingles had flared through me, and I was shocked at the mate bond.Is this what he has felt towards me since we met? Is this what my mother felt and the reason she chose to walk away from us?Every time he pressed his body on mine, my heart rate would increase. My body had craved his.When the haze of lust cleared and I realized what I had just done with our biggest customer ever, I panicked. I have never been intimate with a man of any species.I compete against males in every area of my life. I have never wanted a romantic relationship, and I never had the desire for sexual activities. But Emmett has just awoken something primal.I don't know how I made it home, but I did. Currently, I'm hiding in my room. Scott is still at Max's, probably enjoyi
R RATEDTHIRD PERSONThe vampires move so fast. Splitting through the wolves, killing as they go. Rogues and Warriors alike, they don't care. Alpha shouts loudly, barking orders to the inexperienced wolves.Riverstone has never had a vampire as an enemy."Go for their hearts!" "Form circles!" "Protect each other!"Lisa and Moira are put in the middle of a very protected circle. Lance, Mike, Clint, Scott, and Alpha demolish attacking rogues with ease. The vampires seem to be targeting the confused wolves first. One female vamp approaches quickly, but Clint rips her heart out. A male Vampire screeches in pain.He moves at heightened speeds going for Clint, but Alpha blocks him. He does an elegant spin move avoiding Alpha's huge hand that reaches for his heart. He lands in the circle dashing towards Moira.Scott growls loudly. His arms are full. He has a struggling rogue in wolf form by the neck. The vampire doesn't slow down. He shots his hand out to rip Moira's precious heart out of her
LISAPOVThis morning felt quiet, calm, and eerie. Lance, Clint, Mike, Scott, Moira, Emmet, and I ate breakfast quietly. My skin is crawling with unease. We had all woke up exceptionally early, almost as if we could feel the threat approaching."So to pop the awkward bubble, everyone can feel it, right," Mike asks with his cheeks filled with sausage."Yes," I say, sipping my coffee squeezing Emmett's hand.This is the first time I have had to calm him constantly. Alpha is pulsing under the surface. He wants out. He wants to run his border and confront whatever is coming. But the plan is a group battle in the training field, not scattered battles in the trees."I've had constant contact with Craig all morning. The entire pack is feeling what we are feeling," Lance sa
R RATEDEMMETT POVHow can she be so perfect? So strong? She stands there getting congratulated by three strong Alphas and has over 700 wolves all admiring the ground she walks on.My manhood twitches. This perfect creature is ours. Suddenly I don't want her around anyone. Jealousy and lust pricks at my skin. She is standing primarily naked in front of hundreds of eyes. I can smell many unmated males' arousal, and it makes Alpha growl in our head.Lisa meets my hungry gaze with a knowing smirk. She can feel my arousal through the bond. The knowledge alone has me repeating history. I grab her and fling her over my shoulder. Riverstone wolves erupt into cheers."Emmett, my butt is showing," she says with a smile in her voice. I growl and shift her into a bridal hold.
EMMETT POV"I, Alpha Karen Gray, Challenge you, LunaLisa Matthews, to the death, for the title of Luna to Riverstone pack and the right to mate Alpha Emmett Stone," Karen says with a sneer.I growl loudly. She wants to be my mate..... she wants to strip Lisa of her rightful position. My wolf will have to honor the bond if she defeats my love. But if she loses, Riverstone gains her entire pack.My whole pack growls loudly. Mike and Moira are trembling with rage. Clint's fists are clenched, and Scott is smiling. Full-on smiling."I accept your challenge, Karen. You will never have my mate," Lisa spits the words. Loudly."Do you realize my sister has killed two wolves in like two months Bitch," Scott suddenly yells. "Oh, and she has only been a full werewolf for...oh
LISA POVI can't believe a slutty little wolf thought she could touch my brother. Alpha Karen's she-wolves must be completewhores.And I can't believe Little miss Alpha Karen thought she could undermine me and speak to my mate so informally. Linda has taught me Alphas arealways called Alpha, except by family members or their mates. Shoot, even Clint, Mike, and Lance call Emmett Alpha. And they are his closest friends."Let's go for a run, love. We need it. Then after you can go work on school work. Take some time and relax. We will have couples gym time tonight," Emmett says, stroking my hair lovingly."A run sounds amazing. Linda is extra energetic today," I say, pecking his waiting lips.I loved how he hadn't spared Karen even a glance when he sided with me
SCOTT POVIt's been a weeksince our group discussion at the table. All the allied wolves are here, and Riverstone is overflowing.Training has been intense—two hours in the morning and two hours in the evening. The difference between our wolves and the others is quite noticeable. All of our wolves, down to the omegas, have stamina and strength. But most of the visiting warriors can't keep up. A couple have even lost sparing matches against Riverstone Omegas.Lisa and Moira constantly train together. Moira can now land solid punches, and Lisa has gained some of Moira's quickness. And may I say my little mate is sexy when she is sparing. I now understand the reason those guys liked watching Lisa fight that she-wolf.My sword work is actually pretty impressive, but I prefer daggers. The daggers aren't he
EMMETT POVI sigh as I drop into my chair. Alpha feels drained from having to end Ryan's suffering. Lisa rubs my shoulders with steady hands."She named their pup Joel," I say, wanting to talk about something positive but finding nothing."That's a good name. You said he gets a family," she asks with a curious tone."Orphan pups are quite rare for our pack. The last rogue attack was when I was 18 and Moira was 15. But even from that attack, we only had a few orphans. There are about 11 mated couples that just absolutely adore kids. So we set up a system. We rotate the couples and place children when they need it. I prefer that then an orphanage. Now, if we ever get an abundance of orphans, of course, we will have to change the system," I explain while rolling a pen around on my desk, enjoying her massage.
R RATEDMOIRAPOVScott's hands constantly find me. He either touches my hands or my hair every time he passes me. He has been on the phone for hours, pacing back and forth. The construction on the second location seems to be very stressful. He has run his fingers through his hair multiple times.I finally stand up and lick his mark. His entire body goes as stiff as a board, and I almost giggle. That got his attention."I'm going to go make us lunch," I say, blushing at the new look he is giving me.He actually slaps my butt as I walk away, and this time I do giggle. It's a nice feeling to be wanted. I do feel a little guilty. Just yesterday, I had kissed Mike with a massive amount of passion and desire. I know for him those feelings are still raging, but for me, th
SCOTT POVI wake up early. Honey and cinnamon have filled my room. The smell is intoxicating, and it is pouring from the delicate flower in my arms. I feel strange. All my senses are heightened. The room looks clearer. I can hear Lisa in the kitchen, and Ican even smell her.I untangle myself from Moira slowly, kissing her forehead before my feet land on the floor. I pull on a pair of sweatpants and exit my room as quietly as possible. Once I am in the hall, I am hit with a masculine presence. I sniff the air and find a strong pine scent mixed with honeysuckle.My instincts immediately tell me who the scent belongs to, Emmett. Shit, I'm dead. I walk to the kitchen silently. Preparing for my death. Lisa is the only one I see, so I slowly relax."Morning Lis," I say curiously. Lis is rarely ever here in
