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

Third person's POV Skylar's eyes were closed and a soft smile rested on his face. Goosebumps spread along his body as Weston's fingers lightly trailed his arm, shoulder, neck and back. The Omega was in a blissful state of happiness, lost in his mate's touch, scent and warmth. He had never experienced such affection, and it felt incredible. His Delta's strong hands were surprisingly soft and gentle as they affectionately touched him. Weston couldn't take his eyes off of his mate. The way he lay in his arms, nuzzled in against his chest. Each time he hears the sound of his purr trying to kick on his heart flutters and he holds his breath, hoping to hear the beautiful sound. Unfortunately, Skylar catches himself each time and pulls in his purr. Years of not being allowed to be happy were ingrained in him. There weren't many instances, but the rare occasions where he purred, he learned how unacceptable it was.Lips press against the side of Skylar's face and warmth quickly fills him. Th
A Beta's Heart Chapter 40
Third Person's POV Adrian took Alaric's hand, threading their fingers tightly together, and took one last breath before pushing the door open and leading Alaric outside. Almost immediately Adrian felt everyone's eyes on them. Nikolai's laughter died as soon as his eyes landed on Alaric. Adrian prayed his mate would make it out of this in one piece as he walked toward his family. His father looked indecisive, as if he was unsure whether to pound Alaric's face in, or accept him. Alpha Victor had a blank expression, and Leonard had an amused expression. ‘Probably remembering all the times Alaric stumbled out of his bedroom.’ Adrian thought. Weston's expression mirrors Victor's, and Nikolai looks ready to murder Alaric, which doesn't surprise Adrian. Alaric saw everyone's expression and wasn't the least bit surprised they didn't look happy to see him. He didn't blame them, but he couldn't stop his cockiness from rearing its head. “I'm glad you could finally join us,” Victor said as
A Beta's Heart Chapter 39
Third Person's POV “Now don't you worry about anything! These big men might look scary, but they're a bunch of saps. For example, I don't know if you met Timothy and Milo, but they're two Omegas that love each other very much, but could never take each other as chosen mates because something like that isn't allowed in other places. Those big scary men risked everything to purchase them for their freedom so they can be together, and they would do the same for you and other Omegas.Anyone of them would jump up and risk their lives for those two little Omegas, just like my son, Nikolai, and Adrian would. They might look scary, but they would never hurt you. You have my word, and my word means everything to me. Besides, you're my son-in-law. If anyone hurts you, they'd have to deal with me and Wes. That's a combo no one wants to mess with! I might look small, cute and innocent, but I've taken the commander of this pack down, and the Beta once or twice, and I'd do it again if anyone messe
A Beta's Heart Chapter 38
Third Person's POV Adrian felt like an ass. What he said about Omegas was true, some kill themselves after their child is taken from them. He wasn't trying to hurt him. He was trying to open his eyes to what they go through. He had no idea Alaric's dad died and that it wasn't even suicide. It was negligence from the hospital, and more than likely his father's chosen mate played a hand in it as well.If Adrian had known, he would have never said what he said. When Alaric pulled back, Adrian took his face into his hands. The Alpha grabbed Adrian's shirt and pulled him closer, pressing their foreheads together. “You don't have to apologize. I understand what you were doing. You wanted me to see things the way that you do.” “Do you?” Adrian asked, and he shrugged. “I think I always have. I don't know… I don't know if I was going along with it because I was afraid to go against the grain and afraid to upset our people and my father, or if I was just turning a blind eye to it… once I f

Skyler's POV As I took a shower, I replayed that moment in the woods when my powers came back. I knew he had to have seen them. That was a burst, and it was a big one. The others I experienced were never near anyone, but this was different, and my mate was on the other side of that tree.I know he had to have seen it. How could he not? The blue light was almost blinding. Thank Goddess it was only a release of energy and nothing harmful. I don't know what I would have done if I had hurt him. He was different on the walk back to the packhouse. He was quiet and looked deep in thought. I wanted to talk to him. I wanted to ask him what he was thinking, but I already knew…I was afraid of what he was thinking. He saw it, but did he know it was me? Maybe he didn't. Maybe he thought it came from somewhere else. I can only hope he doesn't know it came from me. The last thing I need is for him to find out I'm a freak. I wonder what he would do if he found out. He would probably reject me, thr
A Beta's Heart Chapter 36
Skylar's POV Instead of being scared, I was excited as Weston walked me through the pack house and out the back door. As excited as I was, it was nothing compared to Rain's excitement. He bounced off the walls in my head, making it hurt. I struggled to keep him contained. He was ready to shift before we made it into the woods. Unfortunately, his excitement was so high that it was stirring our powers that have been dormant since we were rescued. It reminded me of someone trying to start the engine of an old vehicle that didn't want to start. I could feel that familiar pressure and static sensation swirling in my core as it tried to kick on. ‘Knock it off!’ I scolded my excited wolf, but it did no good. We were in the woods, and he knew that any moment, Weston would stop and say it was time to shift. He was too excited to meet his Delta wolf. I think Weston could feel my excitement, he looked down at me and smiled. “I suppose this is as good as any spot,” Weston said, pulling his sh
A Beta's Heart Chapter 35
Adrian's POV I rolled onto my back as the bathroom door closed and exhaled as I looked at the ceiling. I stared at it for a moment and wondered if this was real. Did he really claim me? My hand instinctively reaches up, and my heart flutters when I touch my neck, and a pleasurable tingling sensation shoots through my body, letting me know it's real. It doesn't hurt; his tongue healed the wound, leaving behind his mark in a raised pattern of his teeth. My scent is no longer my own. His scent is now mixed with mine. For me it's faint, and once I'm used to it I won't realize it's there, but for others it's very noticeable. If someone can't see my mark, they'll definitely know I'm claimed by my scent alone since it's the scent of two people. To Alaric, my scent doesn't change much. My unique scent that only he can smell as his mate is still there, and just as strong. The only difference now is he can smell the faint underlying scent of his own, as if he scented me and it's wearing off.
A Beta's Heart Chapter 34
Alaric's POV I knew I hurt him when I broke the bond. I know I hurt him each time we had sex and I didn't mark him, but goddess I wanted to. I wanted to so badly. I knew I hurt him, but I never realized the extent of it. I hurt him deeper than I ever realized.Seeing the pain in his eyes and feeling it as if it's your own are too different things. One is an assumption since you can only see it, and the other is surety. You feel it as though it's your heartbreak.I feel like the biggest ass. All those times he was waiting and hoping that I'd claim him. All those nights I saw his smiling face when I dropped down from the balcony was a mask to cover his pain. Each night I disappeared into the woods, he was left alone with his disappointment and broken heart. I went home happy while he cried himself to sleep. I got my fix. My heart was content, and I stayed away until I couldn't and needed another fix of him. He was my drug, and I was his soulmate. He held onto hope that one day, I would
A Beta's Heart Chapter 33
Third Person's POV Alaric felt like he was in heaven when he tasted his mate. His tongue glided over Adrian's entrance over and over again as he lapped up his juices. His lips curled up when he felt his Beta squirming under him, feeling his hips buck, wanting more. The Alpha growled, pleased with how eager his mate was for him, and the next moment his tongue invaded Adrian's body as he dove in.Alaric groaned, feeling how tight Adrian was around his tongue. His cock throbbed, eager to sink into his mate and feel his tight walls wrapped around him. He smirked an Adrian pushed back against his face, fucking himself on his tongue. It was so erotic and had the pre-cum leaking from his cock as his tongue thrusted in and out of him.When Alaric's tongue left Adrian's body, he was shocked when Adrian growled in frustration and flipped them in the blink of an eye. He was a bit dazed but snapped out of it when Adrian's hand wrapped around his cock and lined it at his entrance. “You're too s
