Trigger Warning: Detailed gay sex scene ahead! Viewer Discretion advised!TylerI had returned from the ritual Agatha had performed for Frey. We’d arrived back at the manor to prepare for tonight's run, and I was making sure everything was perfect for the night I would mark and claim Jax as my mate. I spent my day with the Sentinel wolves outside the pack territory, tracking the movements of our enemies to discover if they were drawing close to the pack. Nothing! Not even a sign that the hounds were near the territory. I returned with the feedback to Logan and also got informed that Frey was having twins. I was so happy for my brother. Two Alpha heirs, damn! He was a talented scorer.The full moon was rising through the dark blue cloud and my wolf howled in my head as it prepared for tonight's run. My tether to the moon got stronger with each passing second as I grabbed my jacket and headed out of the manor, making a beeline to the clearing in the elder woods.I was almost there when I
Logan I pulled the white bedsheet to myself, running my hand over the bed. My eyes snapped open when I couldn't find Frey in it. As I shot to a sitting position, I turned to the other side and saw her standing in front of the dressing mirror, brushing her hair. She looked magnificent in that lacy red dress. “Frey. You are awake. Is it 6 yet?”“Logan, it's 10 am. I figured you'd need your rest after last night.” She teased as she bit her lips.“Hmm. I wouldn't ask for any other mate.” I chuckled.I rustled out of bed and walked up to her, caging her in my arms. She smiled as she held onto me, and I buried my face in her neck and inhaled a lungful of her scent. She wheeled to face me and placed her hands around my shoulder.“Breakfast is ready. Tyler took care of the patrol this morning. The kids are in school and we have the entire day to ourselves.”“Yeah. I wanted to talk about something before you leave.”“Sure. I have something I want to say too. But you go first.” She responded. I
ShannonHow would you feel when you unearth you let in an enemy into a place you call home and all this while they've been pretending to be your friend? It sucks, right? I have always prayed for an opportunity to get into Night Shade Pack and that chance came knocking at my door. Who was I to reject an offer made by Alpha Logan Marcus Kade of Night Shade Pack? After everything that these werewolves did to my kind, my family most especially, I think it's time that they pay for their crimes. When I mean payment, I mean Logan Kade. He deserved as much hell as he had put me through, and it's only fair that I give it back ten folds.We had left the pack territory yesternight with Delta Valor and Zeta Keaton and had arrived at the abandoned house this morning where the witches had been living in for the past two years. We had breakfast together with the wolves, then started packing our luggage for the trip back to the pack.It was noon, and everyone was ready for the journey to our new home.
LoganI had met the female witches when the coven was moving into their new home earlier today. Frey and Jax had taken it upon themselves to organize a party to celebrate the witches’ arrival. By evening time, wolf bloods and witches were swarming into the manor. The waiters served wines, and everyone got their chance to showcase their dance skills in the ballroom. I met with the male witches, and they thanked me for what I'd done for them. Life was hard out there, and I turned things around by inviting them back into the pack.About two hours later, the manor was empty. Everyone had returned to their homes. I pulled off my black suit jacket and tossed it to my shoulder as I appeared in the common room. Tyler was lying on the large couch, lost in a deep sleep. I smiled and marched toward the exit of the door. I ran into Jax, who was sitting in front of the porch, eyes fixed on the stars that decorated the dark blue clouds. “Hey, brother,” I patted his back and sat next to him. He smile
JaxAn unknown enemy is attacking the pack. I didn't want to leave Logan alone. Hell, Frey would kill me if anything happened to her mate, but he's my Alpha and I didn't have a choice but to obey his command. If I was going to protect him, I couldn't do it alone. I needed other wolf bloods by my side.Racing through the forest of wild trees, the wind whistled, hitting my fur as I sped down the path that led to the spot where the patrol team lived. I changed back into my human form and barged through the door, meeting the group of male wolves that sat by the fireplace. “The pack is under attack.” I announced, and they swiveled their gaze to me, their demeanor changing as they rose to their feet. Every trace of tonight’s merry faded from their eyes and they hurried to their weapons. Some shifted right there in the living room.“I’ll gather the entire patrol.”“I’ll find Keaton!” I told them and headed off to search for the Zeta of the pack.Stepping out to the front porch, I shifted int

My daughter, a child of chaos, almost died in my arms at birth. I had to do everything within my power to revive her to life even when it meant losing myself and my humanity.I used to be a witch who desired consuming love, and I found it in a beautiful woman, but during childbirth, she passed away. On her deathbed, I made her a promise to save our baby without caring about the consequences of my actions.Reapers are vile creatures that are out to steal and drain people of their magic. But it's just the desire to survive. I just wanted to hold my daughter in my arms once again. At least the humanity in me did. Not this evil version that would raise a pack of dead fire wolves to attack this place.Reapers have their own magic with which they practice spells, but it's not enough to keep them aliv
LoganI searched through the entire woods where I built the bunker, but there was no trace of my mate. I had to mind-link Tyler to ask him about her whereabouts, and he informed me she headed to the school with Grainne and the kids.I growled as I changed back to my wolf form with Keaton beside me, zooming through the forest at werewolf speed.I picked up her scent while we were drawing closer to the school gates. The air held the scent of blood, fear, and grief, and I beheld the carcasses of the dead wolf bloods that fought for their lives.I morphed back to my human form when I saw Frey sitting on the ground with Denzel in her arms. I heard her scream, which held endless torment causing the dispersion of her magic.I lost my balance and stumbled down the ground with a whimper, then I regained my footing, heading toward my mate instantly.What happened to her? What did the Reaper do to her?“Frey? Are you alright?”“I don't know,” she uttered. She leveled her gaze with me, and a lone
LoganIt was until this morning I realized the damage that the fire wolves had left in their wake. My father had always warned me about those creatures and their hunger for revenge. But I had to ask myself. What did the fire wolves do to Night Shade Pack to be executed? Or did my father just kill them because he could? I was certain they had been longing for vengeance for decades and last night; they got what they wanted ferociously.I was heading to the hospital when I encountered Grainne, and she informed me that this wasn't the perfect time to see Frey as she was with her father. No matter how hard I tried to turn down her suggestion of patrolling the pack, I couldn't. I wasn't convinced that Frey was ready to communicate with anyone yet. Finally, I consented to Grainne's proposal and joined her to where the Reaper had conducted the spell last night. There were only a few patrol wolves around the area and were executing their duties perfectly. I heard the patrol had found Shannon in
FreyThe morning sunlight splashed into the room when I parted the velvet curtains to the apartment. Trust me, the babies gave me a hard time last night, and we barely got some sleep. I wondered if I cried as much while my father and mother raised me. My mother. I wondered why she didn't show up at the battle. Or had she just disappeared out of the blue? And completely cut ties with even Pierson. Fortunately for the bastard Pierson, he had escaped the pack when he saw the battle was no longer in his favor.After I got out of the shower, I pulled on new clothes and made sure I fed the babies. I walked downstairs to meet the rest of the family who had gathered for breakfast. It didn't seem all bubbly and fun as usual, as everyone was dealing with the loss. But we had a substantial morning meal. I finished breakfast and kissed Logan goodbye, then I headed to the witch’s side of the pack, leaving my kids in the hands of Adelyn and the twins.Today I was going to break the hound curse and f
LoganIt was over.The last thing I recalled was Grainne resisting my alpha aura.I was in a hospital with a bandage wrapped around my stomach and head. I glanced at my side and I saw Frey sitting in the chair. She smiled at me brightly and I groaned and slowly shot to a sitting position. “What am I doing here?” I asked, pulling off the IV on my arm.“You sustained a lot of injury, but you're healing faster than expected.”“Well, I need to get out there and fix things.”“Save your strength, Alpha. We'd make good on our promises after the full moon tonight.”“Wait, how long have I been out?”“Two days. Grainne must have hit you pretty hard.”“What about the twins, Tyler, Keaton?” I inquired. Frey's face drained of color and she tried to hide the grief marking her face, but I had already noticed it. I struggled out of the bed and changed into a new set of clothes, ignoring her protests of getting some rest.“What happened, Frey?”“Keaton didn't make it. Eloy as well. Tyler has been lying
GrainneI emerged from the pack house with Adelyn and the kids. I had gotten intel from Jacinthe that Logan and his men had invaded the territory. Shit was about to go down and the first thing I had to do was get pregnant Adelyn and the kids to safety. The only safe place I could think of was the elder woods. There would be no reasoning with Logan if he found me, but that didn't mean I'd just submit to him. I'd fight until there was no strength left.We had arrived at the entrance of the elder woods, and the kids had already walked through the barrier the witches had put up. Adelyn was still arguing about taking my kid away, but I wouldn't let her. The last thing I needed was to be separated from my son. Not again.I took Connery away from the elder woods, heading to the nearest path that led to the exit of the pack territory. The safest place for him to disappear through. I showed my son places he could stay anytime we were under attack, so I could find him after the chaos had died do
TylerWe moved toward the direction of the south of the pack. I was in wolf form and Keaton in human form, killing the hounds that posed a threat to our lives. I heard Logan’s voice in the mind-link. Don't kill anyone unless necessary. I wouldn't get killed in battle because I was feeling generous. If they as much tried to raise a finger at me while we both negotiated keeping their lives. I would kill them without thinking twice.An arrow left Keaton’s crossbow and struck the hound hurrying toward us. He was taking down the creatures’ legs, so they weren't able to fight back.I sprinted after the second creature, leaping into the mid air and raking my claws against it. The wolf passed out, and we both proceeded to the wing where we built the pack's dungeons.We didn't expect less than a freak show, so we both hid behind the thorn bushes and observed the hound guards that were standing at the entrance armed with weapons. There were about fifteen of them. Grainne knew if we were reclaimi
LoganWe had arrived in our home and stationed our vehicles in the dark woods just outside the pack borders. Tyler and Keaton were looking at the number patrols surrounding the pack's border and, thankfully, there weren't so many of them. He had informed us through the mind-link that Grainne had changed the patrol team. That was what I expected. I mean, if she had let the patrol wolves take care of the pack’s security, then she would make it easier for us.A rustle in the forest pulled my attention, and I turned on my heels as my eyes gained their crimson glow. I sighed in relief when I saw Keaton and Tyler emerging from the cluster of woodlands. It had taken them so long I was worried. But now they were back, we were going to discuss how we would take care of this without killing the innocent and that included everyone that lived in our pack at the moment. “How many are there?” I inquired.“A lot. They haven't discovered our presence because their wolf's senses are not as powerful as
LoganWas this what it felt like to be a dad?When I held my sons, I felt pride, joy, and inexplicable love for these little minions who hadn't let me sleep in days. I loved them even more than I could imagine no matter how tiny they were; they were still so beautiful. The primal instinct I had was to protect them and make this world a better place for them. I was certain parenting won't come easy especially with taking care of the pack, but Frey and I would get through this together.I carefully set the kids down into the baby cot when they had finally fallen asleep in my arms after I had sung them a lullaby for almost an hour. An exhausted sigh escaped my lips as Frey barged into my room, and I glanced at her with wild eyes, hushing her instantly. “The kids. They're asleep.” I whispered as I moved toward her. These little ones really knew how to keep us on our toes, but I didn't regret any moment I had spent with them. I never will. It had been a week since she put to bed, and she ha
FreyI felt a sharp pain travel from my pelvic region, and a groan escaped my lips, getting Shannon’s attention. She watched me and I chuckled nervously. “It’s ok. The babies are just kicking.” I reassured her that everything was fine as we drove down the path. We were driving closer to the Rogue's Pack. The pain came again, and I held onto my back and groaned. My eyes widened as I realized I was having contractions. My breathing tripled. I struggled to steady my breath as Shannon drove into the Rogue's territory where two armed guards were standing on duty.Shannon pressed on the brake as she rectified things with the patrol and continued the journey, heading straight into the pack house.We pulled up in front of the pack's mansion, where I saw Alex standing with Tyler. He had a hopeful look in his eyes, but when Shannon and I alighted from the vehicle, the anticipation in his eyes faded. He was expecting Adelyn.A trembling sigh escaped my lungs as I strolled toward them. Shannon was
LoganWe emerged from the tree line down to the roadway, with Alex still holding onto my feeble frame. The clouds had taken their dark blue color, and we had to find a place to rest for the night. That wasn't an option for my Gamma. He had to get me to the Rogue's Pack because staying out here for too long would only weaken me and leave me as dead weight. My skin had turned pale, and I was running high on fever. I was wrestling with my eyes to keep them open and the venom of the hound's bite on my leg was spreading up to my thighs. I wasn't sure that I would survive this. That I'd make it. What if I didn't? What if I don't see my wife ever again? I had to fight for my family, for my kids, for my pack. I had to survive for my mate. Fight harder, Logan. Fight. You can do this.I grunted and tapped on his shoulder, asking him to slow down. He sighed and placed me on the tree bark, struggling to keep his breathing in check. “We’ll get there. You just have to hold on just a little longer.”
GrainneThe morning sun splashed through the skies, peeling into the courtroom through the transparent windows. It wasn't news that I had taken over the pack with Regan and the wolf shifters. Without mercy, we eliminated the warriors who had tried to resist last night. Not my fault, because I had asked them to stand down, but their pride got the best of them.I stood in front of the lead warriors and elders of the pack, who were bound in chains and gagged. Pierson and Falkor were standing at the far end of the hall while Regan sat on the Alpha throne, placing his legs on the table. He was enjoying this far more than anyone did. “I'm not here to hurt anyone, but if you try to oppose me, I will execute you without mercy. I expect each of you to follow the rules and no one has to get hurt,” I announced and turned to the captured pack warriors with a glass of wine in hand. “Take them back to the dungeons. Pierson, Falkor, sit,” I commanded as I joined Regan on the table. The new wolf warri
