Alaric's POVI always enjoyed fucking with him. Adrian was too easy to rile up. It hardly took anything to piss him off and get him to fight me. That little shit always gave me a run for my money. I would never tell him, but he's a good fighter. He gave me a challenge instead of backing down like everyone else. At first, I hated it. The audacity of that little Beta talking back to me, standing his ground, and stepping up to me pissed me off like nothing else. But then I grew to love it. I loved the challenge, and so did my wolf, a little too much. Zion looked at Adrian like a game of chase. Nothing excites an Alpha more than chasing someone, and he sure puts up a fight during that figurative game of chase… I think that's the reason my wolf fell for him. I didn't realize it until it was too late, and by then, my wolf was in love.I never imagined my stupid wolf would fall for the enemy. It frustrated me beyond belief. The only way to get rid of those frustrations was to take it out on

Adrian's POV Slowly, I wake up, and my body feels stiff and heavy, like a weight is pressing down against me. I blink my eyes open, look down, and I see bleach-blonde hair on my chest causing my heart to stop. ‘What is he doing here?’It takes a moment for the shock to wear off enough for me to breathe again. I take a shaky breath in as I look at him lying with his head on my chest and my left arm draped over his neck. His eyes are closed, and his lips are parted. His breaths are deep and even; he's asleep.The asshole that has been the cause of my suffering looks so fucking handsome, and I hate it. Why does he have to look so good? He looks so peaceful, and for the first time, he doesn't look like an asshole. I feel Max waking from his slumber to look at him, urging me to touch him. He wants him… Even after the bastard broke our heart and threw the bond away like we were nothing… He still wants him. He still thinks this asshole is his. His desire to touch him and my desire to touch

Alaric's POV Trying to focus on anything since he got hurt has been nearly impossible. Thank goodness my father had been out of town, and from what I know, he is unaware I went into Adrian's territory. Hell, he's been so busy since the day I found out Adrian was my mate that he hasn't realized I've been going through a rejection. It's not that it's anyone's fault but my own, but still, he knew something was wrong before he left, and yet he left anyway.I don't understand why I can't get Adrian out of my head, and why he's everything I think of every minute of the day. The rejection should have prevented this from happening, but it didn't. I'm finally strong enough to return to training, but I can't keep my mind off of him long enough, and I end up getting the shit beat out of me each time I step onto the mat. It's beyond frustrating, and embarrassing. I find myself getting angrier with him. I want to hate him, but I can't. I want to sneak over there and kick his ass, but the though

Adrian's POV Our pack has been on high alert since the attack. As prepared as we were, we weren't prepared for that level of attack. We never saw it coming. We didn't realize the rogues were capable of putting together an army like that. The worst thing is, we didn't get all of them. Most of them escaped, retreating once all of our men showed up. We chased them until they reached rogue territory, and we were forced to back off.The rogue territory is a complicated matter. Things there aren't as cut and dry as in a pack. It's set up by the King. It's a place for werewolves to go when they've been kicked out of their pack. A place they're exiled to unless another pack decides to take them in. The rogue territory is not a pack—at least, it's not supposed to be. Rogues are complicated. Most go feral after being without a pack for an extended period. The length of time isn't set in stone and is different for each wolf. It could take one year or five. And for some, it never happens. To th

Third person's POV Just as his feet hit the ground, he heard Adrian scream before he heard the sound of things crashing and breaking inside his room. The sound of Adrian's scream made his chest tighten. He could hear the pain and anger in it, and it had him scaling the wall again.He entered the room in time to see Adrian swipe his hand across the dresser and throw everything on it across the room. He briefly looked in the mirror, and it was as if he hated what he saw. Adrian screamed as he put his fist through the glass, shattering it and sending glass everywhere.Alaric was beside him in an instant, pulling him away from the broken glass. He tried to look at Adrian's bleeding hand, but he jerked it away from him. “Get out of here! Get the fuck out of here!” Adrian screamed as he pointed at the door leading to the balcony. “Adrian, calm down.”“Fuck you! Get out of here!!” Adrian yelled as he shoved Alaric's chest, causing him to stumble back a few steps.Alaric wanted to be angry,

Third Person's POV Adrian's body moves, rising up the Alpha's length before sinking down onto it again. The slick seeps out around Alaric's cock, soaking his length each time he sunk back into the Beta. Their tongues wrapped around each other, fighting for dominance in an endless battle neither would submit to. Their hunger for each other is strong; neither can get enough of the other. Their hands roam each other's bodies with desperation, eager to finally touch the other like they had dreamt. They touch, tug, and pull at each other until the Alpha begins standing, gripping Adrian's thighs as he rises to his feet. The Beta didn't stop; he gripped Alaric's shoulders and neck for leverage and used his core to rise up the Alpha's length before sinking back down onto it.The Alpha groans at the pleasurable sensation. His knees touch the bed as he crawls onto it. He then gently lays Adrian down before pressing him into the mattress with the weight of his body.His hips push forward, sink

Adrian's POV It's been two weeks since the day I'm still trying to forget. Unfortunately, every time I close my eyes, I can still feel and smell him. I can see those beautiful light gray eyes and the look of pleasure that I've caused on his face. I can feel his face in my hand and taste his kiss, but it all disappears when I open my eyes. I try not to think of him. I go about my day, busying myself with work and training. I hang out with the guys until late into the evening, and when they leave, everything goes wrong. When I'm all alone, he plagues my thoughts, and when I close my eyes, he's there. I wish he wasn't there. I wish I could forget him and never see his gorgeous face again, but I can't. I see him every time I close my eyes.I stare at myself in the mirror and can't bring myself to put on a stupid tie. I hate them! I don't see the point. They're constrictive; I can't breathe in these stupid death traps! It's the man's version of a damn necklace, except this one wants to

Adrian's POV As we walk toward the field where the party is, we hear Nikolai grumbling about not wanting to be there. His father chuckles as he throws an arm over his shoulder. “You know, you could find your mate here, then you'll regret all this complaining!” “I'm not going to find my mate. I'm almost 22. I don't have one.” Nikolai said, trying to sound like he didn't care, but I know he does. Everyone knows how much finding a mate meant to Nikolai. “You never know,” The Alpha said as he patted his son's shoulder. As we walk to the side of the house, the yard opens up to a large field of fresh snow. The stage where the ceremony will take place is centered at the back of the field. A large food tent is set up along the back left, and a large fire pit sits in the center of the field with flames reaching taller than I am. Light blue lights hang along the tent and the trees that border the field. With the lights and fresh blanket of snow, it looks quite enchanting. Lower ranks whos

Alaric’s POV I was numb. It felt like I was separated from my body, hovering above it and watching my body move as I stepped into my clothes.I never thought my father would choose a mate for me. I had the impression he would let me find someone on my own and fall in love. Apparently, I was wrong.I tried saying no. I argued, and said there was no way I would take someone I didn't know as a mate, but he was adamant. He said it was done. The arrangements were made, and there was nothing I could do to back out. The agreement was made, and the contract was signed. He said breaking the contract would have dire consequences. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to let my father down. I knew he was counting on me to take over one day since I was the only one who could. My brother doesn't have alpha blood, and we have no other siblings. He would have to start over from scratch and have more children. But even that's no guarantee he would have another Alpha son. The Omegas worked silen

Adrian's POV “Goddess, I'm such an asshole! Please forgive me! I'm sorry for hurting you,” Alaric said as he passed everyone and entered the pack house. He began peppering my face and neck with kisses while repeatedly saying, “I'm sorry!”I'm not sure how he knew which apartment was mine, but he walked right to my door and opened it as though he had walked through that door many times.I pulled back and looked at him as he walked through the living room. I glanced at the room around us. It was the first time I had ever seen him there. It stirred a new wave of emotions, and my eyes stung… It was something I thought I'd never see.“I'm sorry!” He whispered before pecking my lips. “ I'm sorry!” He said a little louder and kissed my nose. “ I'm sorry!” He said before kissing my cheek. “ I'm sorry!” He said before kissing my forehead, and a smile began to spread across my face as he circled it with kisses. “I'm sorry!” He said as he crawled onto the bed, climbing under the blanket and co
A Beta's Heart Chapter 28
Adrian's POV This is it. It's permanent. He made his choice, and it wasn't me. There's nothing I can do now but accept it and try to move on. I felt dead inside. Seeing him with someone he chose over me was much worse than when he broke the bond. This hurt differently, and in ways, it cut much deeper.I knew better than to let him into my heart. I don't know why I gave in. I don't know why I caved and let him in further. I should have pushed him away and kicked him out of my room the first time he came to me.I should have never given him myself; maybe it wouldn't hurt so bad if I didn’t. I couldn't pull myself out of bed the following day, but today, you couldn't keep me there.It was too much. I couldn't stop thinking about him. I couldn't stop seeing how gorgeous he looked in that suit. I couldn't get the image out of my head of someone else on his arm, the person he chose to spend the rest of his life with. I had to get those images out of my head, and the only way to do that
A Beta's Heart Chapter 27
Adrian's POV I spent way too long getting ready. I tried on almost everything in my closet before settling on something I would never wear: a suit and tie. The damn thing felt like it was choking me, but I had the strongest urge to look my best for him, so I sucked it up. I got my hair cut today, but I can’t decide how I want it styled. The sides are short, fading into the longer hair on top. My hair is naturally curly and can sometimes be unruly. Thankfully, with the right product, it's not a frizzy mess. The curls are just right. I gently raked my fingers through them, brushing my hair back so they lay just right. Then, I looked in the mirror and frowned. That won't do. I comb the curls to the left with my fingers and fluff them until they’re just right, but it still looks wrong. I growl in frustration and comb everything to the right with my fingers. After fiddling with the curls and making sure each one laid just right, I'm finally satisfied and head downstairs. A loud whistl

Third Person's POV Soft music played in the background as Adrian cooked in the kitchen. His heart warmed every time he looked into the living room and saw the omegas cuddling on the couch. It was a purr fest in there. The two are lying on the couch; their limbs are tangled, and they're purring up a storm as they nuzzle each other. He's never seen anything cuter. They're head over heels in love with each other, and they're happier than they've ever been.The soft rumble of their purse is soothing and drowns out the music. Adrian stirs the sauce before tasting it and hums in satisfaction; it's perfect! He sets the spoon down and looks out the window. Any minute, the rest of his friends will be here, but something will still be missing... Alaric.He finds himself wishing Alaric was there. He's the missing piece that would make everything perfect and complete.He begins to wonder what it would be like to have him over for something so casual, like dinner with friends. He looks at the c

Adrian's POV Sitting in on our parent's debriefing was almost comical. Weston could barely sit still. He was eager to talk about his mate and eager to get back to him. The Alpha threatened to knock him upside the head if he interrupted them one more time. Nikolai and I placed a bet on how long it would take before he interrupted again. Unfortunately, we both lost when the Alpha turned his attention to Weston. He folded his hands on the desk, and before he could open his mouth, Weston was already talking. “He's so perfect! I can't wait for you guys to meet him! His name is Skyler, and he's the most adorable Omega I've ever met!” Weston gushed, and his father sat back with a proud smile on his face. “I'm very happy for you, but what was the important part that you wanted to talk to us about?”“It's where he's from. He's from Blackfoot Pack. Beta Eric chose him as a breeder for him and Tiffany. Obviously, he didn't want to do that, so he ran away,” Weston said. The Alpha sat back in

Alaric's POV My father has been riding my ass since he's been back. I don't know what his deal is, but he's become a real pain in my ass.I try to focus on work, but he plagues my thoughts. I can still feel his smooth, silky skin under my hands and hear his beautiful moans. I can feel the way his body shudders under my touch and see pleasure dancing on his face. I can see his beautiful brown eyes and feel his lips on mine. Goddess, he smells so good!I try not to think of him and wonder if I can just forget about him. It would be for the best. My father would never approve of him. Our packs are too different; our worlds are too far apart. But Goddess, he feels so good in my arms!!It's been four days since I've seen him, four days since I felt him. It should be getting easier, but it's not; it's getting harder. You would have thought the bond was never broken the way I yearn for him. You would have thought our time together is strengthening it, but I know that can't be possible. I br

Skylar's POV After trying to lick the first bowl clean, I quickly learned that it earned me another bowl of white chicken chili. I had every intention of licking the second bowl clean, but I didn't count on my eyes being bigger than my stomach. I ate way more than my stomach could handle, and thankfully, he understood what was happening when my hand slapped over my mouth. He quickly stood and carried me to the garbage can. As soon as my face hovered over it, my stomach emptied at once. I wasn't expecting him to be so concerned or take care of me the way he did.He set me on the counter next to the sink, grabbed a clean washcloth, and wiped my face. After he was done, he placed a hand on my cheek. “Are you okay?” He asked as he searched my face.For a moment, I didn't know how to reply. No one had ever seemed so concerned about me. All I did was overfill my stomach, but by his reactions, you would have thought it was something more. It took me by surprise, and a lump formed in my t
A Beta's Heart Chapter 22
His POV I have no idea how big this pack is. I can't believe we're not out of it yet! It feels like we've been running for hours, but I think we're just exhausted. My stomach drops, my chest tightens, and I stumble when I hear the gut-wrenching howl of my mate. There were so many emotions in that howl. Pain, fear, and panic. It had Rain sliding to a halt and wanting to run back to him. “Don't do it! Please! I don't want to lose you! I love you,” I pleaded, and my stomach dropped when Rain howled. I felt his stomach drop. He didn't mean to reply to his mate's call. It was instinct and heartache. He quickly turned and ran even faster than before. My wolf pushed himself as hard as he could, but I knew it was in vain. I could hear him in the distance getting closer and closer. It was like a train wreck waiting to happen. I felt defeated and watched it unfold. I heard his howl again, and Rain's steps falter, slowing down for a brief moment before running as fast as he could. It was en
