Third person's POV

Alaric pushed Adrian behind him and growled at the Alpha.

“I don't care who you are, or what pack you're the Alpha of, but you will watch your fucking tongue when talking about my mate!” Alaric said angrily.

Aldrich's hand moved so fast that neither of them saw it moving until his hand was wrapped around Alaric's throat, and the young Alpha's feet were dangling off the ground.

Adrian swung for the Alpha's face, but once again, the Alpha moved too fast, and the back of his hand hit his face so hard that everything briefly went dark, and he fell to the ground.

Alaric's hands frantically clawed at Aldrich's hand wrapped around his throat while his feet dangled in the air. Aldrich brought Alaric's face inches from his and smirked.

“It appears your father hasn't taught you any manners. Maybe I need to teach you some,” Aldrich said. As soon as the last word left his mouth, someone jumped on his back and bit into his shoulder, causing Aldrich to drop Alaric.

  • A Beta's Heart   Chapter 47

    Third person's POV Alaric panicked as he knelt and looked his mate over frantically. The dazed state of Adrian was terrifying, and the bruise forming on his cheekbone just under his eye looked painful. The bleeding cut split through the middle of the rapidly forming bruise had the Alpha acting like his mate was bleeding out. His heart hammered in his chest as he tenderly wiped the wound with his shirt, completely forgetting that his wolf could heal minor wounds. “Baby! Talk to me. Are you okay?” Alaric asked as he took his mate's face into his hands. Adrian's heart clenched when he realized his mate barely saw him. He was looking straight at him, but somehow, all he saw was the wound on his cheek that no longer hurt. Adrian's head lifted off the ground and further stunned the Alpha by capturing his lips. The Alpha's eyes fluttered closed, and the heavy weight resting on his shoulders disappeared as he melted into the kiss. He finally became aware of his mate's hands touching his fa

    Third person's POV Charlie was eager for more, while Victor was thankful the guitar was being unplugged. The Omega frowned when Arthur hopped down from the stage. “Why is he stopping? I want to hear another song!’’ Charlie said, folding his arms. He was tempted to tell the Alpha to get back up there and sing at least two more songs. He's never seen anyone sing like that in real life. Arthur was like a rockstar on stage. His long wavy hair flowed all around him as he moved on the stage, jumping and throwing his head while playing the guitar like he was trying to break it. He didn't know most of the songs but he loved how the music made his limbs move. The Omega almost squealed when he heard the drums begin to play. He had no idea there were any there. They were hidden behind a large black curtain. Moments after the drums began playing, the curtain opened, revealing a large drum set just like the Omega had seen on TV. Charlie squealed as he leaped out of his Alpha's arms and tried cl

  • A Beta's Heart   Chapter 49 A picnic

    Third person's POV The day was exceptionally warm for early spring in Michigan's upper peninsula. There was hardly a cloud in the sky and nearly no wind. When the wind did blow, it was light and surprisingly warm. The sun was set high in the sky, shining down on his light tan skin, which looked like it'd been kissed by the Sun. His eyes sparkled as he grabbed a grape and popped it in his mouth. Skyler intensely watched Weston remove a block from the tower. He covered his eyes when the tower wobbled. When he didn't hear it fall, he peeked through his fingers as his mate successfully placed the wooden block on top. “Haha! Yes! Look at those skills!” Weston said excitedly. Skyler smiled at Weston but frowned when he realized it was his turn. The Jenga tower was taller than ever and became more unstable with each piece moved. Skyler pulled his lip between his teeth as he gently touched each piece, searching for the loosest one. He found one and held his breath as he slowly pushed it t

    Third Person's POV “Shit!” Weston cursed as he jumped to his feet, pulling Skyler with him. The Delta turned and took Skyler's face into his hands.“Run as fast as you can, and don't look back! Don't stop until you're in our room.” Weston said, dropping his hands and glancing back at the rapidly approaching threat. He looks back at his terrified Omega, whose eyes are filled with tears. “NOW! RUN!” Weston yelled before turning and shifting in one fluid motion. Knox snarled as he bolted forward, charging the enemies as he pushed against his Alpha's link. He was met with an empty link, reminding him that the Alpha, the Commander, and a good portion of their pack were gone, visiting Arthur's pack for his big party.Weston pushes on the Beta's link, and Joseph quickly opens it.Three hundred feet away, where Skyler stood on the blanket, he was horrified when he watched his mate run toward danger. His feet are rooted in place, unable to move. He wants to obey his mate but doesn't want to

  • A Beta's Heart   Chapter 51 Merle

    Third Person's POV The evening was winding down, and the only packs remaining at Arthur's were Victor's and Alpha Merle's. Merle is a quiet Alpha who sticks to himself. His pack is located at the farthest Northwest end of the peninsula. It's the most rural part of the peninsula, tends to be the coldest, and gets the most snow, making it the least desirable area to build a pack. Because of this, Merle doesn't have much of a threat, especially since no other packs are near him. He has no allies, but not because he was refused. It was rather because he hadn't requested one, and the few people who had reached out to him, he turned down. He doesn't attend any of the events, such as mating ceremonies. The only things he attends are the mandatory Alpha convention and the annual celebration. To say everyone was surprised to see Merle attend Arthur's party would be an understatement. It wasn't mandatory, and he didn’t bring all his unmated members, which would have explained why he was the

    Third Person's POV Nikolai was relieved that Arthur returned to his normal self once they were in the car. He sat in the center of the backseat, leaned forward, and nearly placed himself in the front seat between Victor and Leo, where he proceeded to talk their ears off, amusing no one but the Omega in Victor's arms.Once they passed the front gate, they rolled their windows down and drove through the territory slowly, trying to pick up the slightest scent of rogues. Thankfully, the air smelled clean of rogues. The only thing they could smell was the residual stench from burning the bodies.Once Leo parked the car, Arthur quickly exited the car, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared to run a lap around the packhouse. “Holy shit! He's fucking fast!” “Nikolai!” Victor scolded. “What?”“I know you're old enough to cuss, but ease up on it in front of me. I'm your father! Show some respect!” Victor said firmly, and Nikolai dropped his head.“I'm sorry, Father!”“Apology accepted! L

  • A Beta's Heart   Chapter 53 That was you

    Skyler's POV I wake up more warm and comfortable than I've ever been. I nuzzle in against the warmth, and I feel something move along my back. That's when I feel it, tingles dancing everywhere. It was like they waited until I was conscious enough to come to life. It's not every day I wake up on top of him. My heart skipped, and my pulse quickened. I feel his chest rising and falling with each breath he takes. I could hear his heart beating as his fingers soothingly caressed my back. My stomach fluttered when I felt him move and kiss my forehead. His finger gently gripped my chin and lifted my head until our eyes met. When they did, my stomach fluttered again. He had a soft smile and hummed as his eyes swept over my face. “Hmmm… Good morning, beautiful,” He said, and I swooned. Beautiful? Me? Those two words don't go together, but somehow he made me feel like they do. His smile widened as he touched my cheek while looking at it. I knew he could see I was blushing, which only cau

    Skylar's POVI watched him cook as he talked to me. I couldn't take my eyes off of him as I sat at the counter. He knows my biggest secret, and he's not going to walk away or spread the word and tell everyone he knows. He's accepting me, even though I'm different…I'm a sucker for his scrambled eggs and cheese, but it's been awhile since I've had a sunny side up egg. Weston placed a plate in front of me as he sat down beside me with his own. I licked my lips when I saw how perfectly seasoned they were with salt and pepper. The toast was perfect! Not too light and not too dark, and the bacon was crispy. It was a perfect breakfast! I licked my lips as I grabbed my toast. Weston laughed when I dove in with my toast and murdered the yolk, wiggling the toast into it until it broke, and then proceeded to soak my toast with all the gooey substance. “Man, that was some determination!” Weston said while laughing. “What?” I asked before shoving the soaked toast into my mouth. “The way you

    Arthur's POV My mind won't stop; every thought races through it. His kiss, did I say too much? Where are they and when will they leave? I fucked up… I said too much, and I let it slip again. I’m not sure how much longer I can keep doing this. I'm losing my mind and this battle. I push on my Beta's link, forcing it open, and I hear Lance groan. “Why can you never wait for me to open it?” “Because I'm your Alpha, and I need you,” I snapped.“Yeah, well, I could have been pushing out a turd or jacking off! You could have at least given me a second to stop if I was doing something private!” Lance said, his frustration seeping into the link for me to feel. “Have you heard from Mitchell?” I asked, ignoring his frustration. I don't care what he was doing. I want answers! “No, but I did get a text while I was in the shower. Hang on,” Lance said, and he went silent. It wasn't like a phone where I could hear the sound of movement, or him breathing. His voice was either in my head or it w

  • A Beta's Heart   Chapter 58 Regret

    Nikolai's POV The run back was much different. We didn't play, nip, or tug at each other's fur. There was silence and tension. He seemed lost in his thoughts and hardly paid attention to me. I couldn't help but feel like he regretted kissing me. I can understand why. Alphas don't mate with each other. Hell, most Alphas won't even take a submissive Beta because they're too dominant and headstrong. There's no way one would take another Alpha. What was the point of it all then? Why flirt and kiss me? Just to tease me? That thought put a knot in my stomach and caused my chest to ache. I stayed quiet and kept my distance from him as we ran back through the woods. I felt awkward, and strangely, I felt used, even though nothing happened besides a kiss. Still, it didn't change how I felt. The way he kissed me like that, and now he's acting like I'm not even here. I felt like an idiot for going for a run with him in the first place. He's my father's friend, not mine! Then why did he ask me

  • A Beta's Heart   Chapter 58 cryptic

    Nikolia’s POVThe sound of their voice disappeared as Art dragged me into the woods. There was a constant blush on my cheeks from the way Art dragged me away and the way he was still holding my arm. A part of me wanted to pull away, but that part was small. I couldn't figure this man out, nor could I understand why I reacted to him the way I did. Why do I have butterflies dancing in my stomach as we walk into the woods, and why does being near him cause my heart to race? And why the hell does he smell so damn good?! I wondered in frustration.“It's your anger and frustration that's not allowing you to succeed,” Art said, breaking the silence. I looked at him and those damn butterflies began flapping their wings in my stomach again. His hazel eyes were looking directly into my blue ones. I wanted to look away, but I couldn't; his eyes held me in place. It wasn't until his lips tugged up that I remembered I was supposed to be saying something. “What do you mean?” I asked.“You coul

    Third Person's POV Skylar slowly walked through the training field with his right arm hooked with Weston's. They slowly strolled through the large field where the center was covered with mats for sparring and the outer edge was unfinished. The conversation between them was light and sweet. Weston was persistent in finding out everything there was to know about his mate. The Omega was timid and blushed as he answered simple questions. His favorite color was easy to answer, but his favorite dessert was a hard one. There were too many sweets he loved, and he couldn't choose just one. The way his eyebrows drew together as he struggled to come up with an answer made Weston laugh and pull him closer, causing warmth to spread through the Omega's chest. Art watched as they walked off. He turned his attention to Nikolai when the young Alpha walked past him. It was like dangling a carrot in front of a horse. The Alpha's eyes were on Nikolai in an instant, and he turned to watch him. He ad

    Third Person's POV The day is warmer than usual, and the sun sits high in the sky, beating down on Nikolai as he struggles to keep up with Leonard. The man's a beast, and he knows how to fight too well. Nikolai grunts when his feet are kicked out from under him, and his back slams against the ground. In an instant, Leonard's knee is against his chest, his left hand is around his throat, and his right is cocked back for a kill shot. “How do you expect to be my Alpha, if you can't last more than 3 minutes with me?” Leonard said before releasing the young Alpha's throat. Nikolai rolled onto his hands and knees, coughing. His back was killing him, and he was hot. He pulled himself to his feet and growled as he tore his shirt off and threw it to the side. Leonard chuckled as he took his position on the mat. “ Is that supposed to help you?” The commander teased, and Nikolai rolled his eyes.“I don't know, maybe it will,” Nikolai said before mumbling under his breath, complaining how hot

    Third person's POV The Alpha lay with his head propped up, resting on his hand. His fingers trail his Beta's beautiful face, loving the way his light brown skin looks as the morning sun shines on him. He loved the beautiful sight that lay beside him in his arms. He smiled in satisfaction and pulled his warm body closer to him. So many thoughts race through Alaric's head as he watches his mate slowly wake up. When Adrian is lying in his arms, his fears and internal battle disappear. The only thing on his mind, is his beautiful Beta, who lies naked beside him, legs tangled, bodies flush together The Alpha's lips tug up when Adrian hums, licks his lips, and begins searching for him with his face. The Alpha's heart swells when Adrian instinctively senses his face hovering above his, and his head lifts off the pillow, briefly connecting their lips before his head drops back to the pillow.The Alpha smile widens when Adrian wraps his arms tightly around him and hums, pulling him closer a
