last update Last Updated: 2023-08-15 06:08:38

The journey to the pack house was an amalgam of emotions, a confusing mix of relief, fear, and shock. Gideon's towering presence, the Alpha, was a constant reminder of the brutality she had witnessed, of the danger she had narrowly escaped.

Every step seemed to bring a new realization, a fresh understanding of the enormity of what had transpired.

She had left her home, fled from her father's madness, abandoned everything she had ever known.

And she was now with the Alpha. The very thought sent tremors down her spine, a mixture of awe and trepidation. Who was this enigmatic being that had saved her? Why had he intervened? What did he desire from her?

Their path through the forest was punctuated by silence, each lost in thought, processing the raw, primal events that had unfolded. Gideon's face was set in a stern, contemplative expression, his eyes unseeing, lost in some internal battle.

"You're injured," Avla's voice broke through the quiet, her concern plain.

His eyes snapped to her,

I hope this doesn’t turn weird and she’s not only mated to the ‘old’ alpha but the young guys too.

    The late afternoon sun streamed through the windows of the pack house as Gideon led Avla down a long hallway filled with portraits of previous Alpha leaders. She couldn't help but feel a pang of curiosity mixed with nervous excitement. "You'll be staying here," Gideon announced, gesturing to a wooden door adorned with intricate carvings. His voice was gentle, but she sensed an underlying tension in his manner. Avla's eyes widened as Gideon opened the door, revealing a spacious room furnished with a large, plush bed, a writing desk, and a cozy seating area. The walls were painted a soothing shade of blue, and a large window looked out over the sprawling grounds of the pack's property. "It's beautiful," she breathed, taking in the warm, inviting space. She moved past him, her body brushing against his as she explored the room. He inhaled sharply, feeling a surge of desire that was almost painful in its intensity. "I hope you'll be comfortable here," Gideon said, his eyes

    Early in the morning, before the first rays of the sun had begun to pierce the cool, dark night, Liam bounced into Avla's room with an energy that belied the hour. His face flushed with excitement, his eyes wide with anticipation, his voice filled with urgency. "Avla, Avla, wake up! It's training time, and you've overslept just like me!" he exclaimed, jumping onto her bed and shaking her awake. Avla, still caught in the tendrils of sleep, blinked and looked at him. Her mind was slow to catch up, her body reluctant to respond. But as she looked into Liam's eager face, as she took in his tousled hair, his rumpled clothes, his innocent smile, something stirred within her. A feeling that was both new and profound. She did not realize it yet, but it was a protective urge, a motherly instinct, a deep and abiding connection. She felt a warmth spreading through her chest, a tenderness swelling in her heart, a love blossoming in her soul. She reached out and ruffled his hair, her touch gen

    Avla's hands were shaking, her breath coming in ragged gasps as she paced her room at the pack house. Her mind was reeling, and her heart felt like it was going to burst out of her chest. The words that Gideon had spoken to her during training were echoing in her mind, each one a blow that cut deeper and deeper."Why?" she muttered to herself, tears streaming down her face. "How could he say that to me? How could he?"Her anger was building, a fury that was consuming her, turning her thoughts into a whirlwind of confusion and pain."He doesn't understand me at all!" she shouted, her voice cracking. "He thinks I'm reckless? He thinks I don't care? He doesn't know anything about me!"Her room felt like a prison, the walls closing in on her, suffocating her. She felt trapped, cornered, with nowhere to turn. The emotions were too much, too overwhelming, and she didn't know how to handle them."I trusted him," she sobbed, collapsing onto her bed. "I thought he believed in me. I thought he

It was a power, alive and wild, pulsing and surging within her, both foreign and familiar. It felt like a primal force demanding to be acknowledged, its energy reverberating through every fiber of her being.

Her legs were weak, almost refusing to support her, and her mind was reeling, caught in the tumultuous whirlpool of emotions. She could feel the presence of her wol

    The afternoon found a trio - Avla, Gideon, and Ethan - at the bustling mall. The air was filled with the distant melody of laughter and chatter as they walked through the glitzy stores, the myriad of colors and the scent of perfumes enveloping them."Gideon, are you sure about this? I don't even know where to start!" Avla fretted, her eyes darting from one store to the next. He told her to buy everything she wanted. The array of choices was dazzling, and the importance of the occasion weighed heavily on her mind.Gideon's hand found her shoulder, his touch instantly grounding her. He smiled reassuringly, his eyes warm with understanding. "You'll find something perfect, I'm sure. Just pick out something special, something that makes you feel beautiful. I want you to feel like the queen of the evening. Plus anything else you need or want."Ethan, who had been observing their interaction with a puzzled and slightly annoyed look, finally chimed in, oblivious to the underlying tension. "Ye

    The night had advanced well beyond midnight when the embers of the campfire grew dim and the party started to move into the house. Gideon turned to Marcus, Ethan, Tanner, and Liam, his voice authoritative yet gentle. "Boys, could you please bring all of Avla's gifts inside?" The four boys nodded, excitement still dancing in their eyes, and scampered off to fulfill their task. Gideon then looked at Avla, his gaze steady. "Avla, you can stay in your room tonight or move to mine. It's entirely up to you." A moment of hesitation, and then Avla's eyes met his, a touch of uncertainty in them. "Gideon, I'm not ready for... well, for sex yet." He smiled, reaching out to tenderly grasp her hand. "Neither am I." "Does that mean you're a virgin too?" she asked, a mix of curiosity and relief in her voice. He chuckled, his eyes warm. "No, I'm not. I've had relationships in the past, one from high school, and with Talia." "Talia?" Avla's voice wavered, and she looked away. "That makes sense.

    The morning arrived, soft and golden, as Avla slowly stirred from her peaceful slumber. Gideon's side of the bed was empty, the impression of his body on the sheets still warm but rapidly cooling. Confusion gave way to curiosity as she rose and dressed, setting off through the house to find him.His office door was slightly ajar, the soft sounds of keyboard tapping and the faint aroma of coffee leading her to his sanctuary. She peered around the door to find him engrossed in his work, brows knitted in concentration. She watched him for a moment, taking in the strong lines of his profile, the way his hair fell into his eyes."Gideon?" she finally ventured, her voice a gentle interruption.He looked up, a radiant smile transforming his face as he recognized her presence. "Avla! Good morning. Did you sleep well?"Her heart swelled at his words, the simple familiarity of his greeting. "I did, but I woke up to find you gone. Is everything okay?"He motioned for her to come in, his chair cr

A day before Avla's Luna ceremony, a spectacular turnout of pack members, including Beta Thomas, cousin Kane, Hattie, Maeve, and 45 other members, filled the space with a renewed vigor. The energy was infectious, even reaching the seasoned members, who sensed that this day was unique.Gideon, standing tall and proud as Alpha, surveyed the crowd with sparkling eyes. His heart swelled with pride and enthusiasm as he looked over the faces of his family. This turnout, the largest in ages, was not just an event but a celebration of their new Luna. With a determined nod, he raised his hands, commanding attention. His voice, a strong boom softened by the joy in his eyes, resonated across the field."Today, we train not just as a pack, but as a family welcoming our n

    The night of the full moon, indicating Avery's 18th birthday, was a culmination of anticipation and impatience on both their parts. Eagerly counting down the days, Avery could barely contain her excitement for this momentous occasion.Meanwhile, Tanner was caught in a storm of emotions, pacing the office floor in the pack house. His heart raced as he confided in Gideon and the other guys, 'I can't believe it's finally here... After 14 years, the moment has arrived. I've been dreaming of this day for so long.'Witnessing Tanner's restless energy, Thomas couldn't help but chuckle. "Boy, you need to stop pacing. You're making even me nervous," he joked.Gideon, observing the scene from his desk, shared in the delight. "Yes, Tanner, the day has... indeed come... and you've handled the journey here... with grace, except for a few mo..mo..moments that led to involuntary swims and such. I'm p...proud of you. Are you re..re...ready to embrace what comes next?" His eyes twinkled with a mixture

    Trembling with cold and emotion, Tanner tried to steady his voice, "I'm not trying to challenge you, Gideon. I'm pleading for us to discuss this. Can't you acknowledge that I've always acted with her best interests at heart, valuing her safety as much as you do?"Gideon, his frustration observable, ceased his pacing and sank to the ground beside Tanner. He removed his own shirt and handed it to Tanner, who quickly pulled it over his head, seeking any relief from the biting cold.Tanner continued, the urgency clear in his tone, "Okay, yes, this was genuinely the first time she's kissed me on the lips since she was like 13. Since I recognized the potential complications. The very first time, Gideon. The first attempt she made since then and the first time I didn't stop it.""So, you're admitting that you let this happen?" Gideon's voice was a mix of inquiry and accusation.His guilt evident, Tanner met Gideon's gaze squarely, "I won't lie to you. Yes, I did. I wrestle with these decisio

    This moment quickly overwhelmed their senses and Tanner's reasoning skills. Avery's arms wrapped around Tanner's neck, her fingers teasingly entangled in his hair. In response, he rolled his head, allowing her to kiss him even more deeply.She led this dance, a wordless conversation flowing through their entwined bodies as their kiss escalated into a spirited declaration of affection.The unmistakable sound of Gideon clearing his throat interrupted their newfound passion. Despite the considerable distance from the pack house porch to where they stood, the noise carried an intensity that pierced the situation. It was a clear indicator of Gideon's fury, a barrage of disapproval that resonated with the force of a storm warning. The sound reaching them across the expansive field separating them from the pack house, underscored the depth of his anger.Reluctantly, Tanner untangled himself from Avery's arms and carefully set her back on the ground. As they started returning to the house, A

    Avery, now 16, stood beside Tanner, overseeing the training session as it wound down to its final moments. The routine was familiar, a dance they had perfected over time, yet today felt distinctly different. Avery's perception shifted as Tanner made his way to the water table. He casually removed his shirt to dab away the sweat from his face before drenching himself with water, the droplets cascading down his defined chest and stomach.In that instant, she realized the depth of her attraction to him. It was a revelation, striking and profound.She was irrevocably in love with him.This moment, though unexpected, was not entirely unforeseen. They had treaded the path of their growing closeness with maximum caution, Tanner even requesting Avery refrain from specific actions, like kissing him on the lips.His intentions were clear. To delay the inevitable awakening of deeper feelings. To postpone the inevitable. He had hinted at the complexities their bond might entail if their emoti

    Tanner tried to concentrate on the book in front of him, but his attention drifted away. He barely grasped the essence of the text, and his mind wandered, disconnected from the story unfolding on the pages.Jorge appeared skillfully balancing a tray packed with popcorn and an assortment of snacks. Spotting the open door to Tanner's room, he stepped in and gently closed it behind him. 'Care for a sneak peek taste?' he joked, extending the snacks towards Tanner. 'Or were you kicked out of the party?'Tanner looked up with a slight smile. "Actually, I got an invite but turned it down."Jorge leaned back slightly, a knowing look in his eyes. "You know, I've noticed the tightrope you've been walking with Avery. But honestly, I'm impressed with how you've handled it all these years."Tanner nodded, his smile broadening as he reached for a handful of the vibrant pink and purple popcorn. "Thanks," he said.With a brief nod, Jorge excused himself, heading towards Avery's room to distribute the

    Tanner retreated to his room, settling by the window that offered a direct line to the lively banter emanating from Avery's room across the hallway. A little guilt for eavesdropping mingled with his curiosity, but the rationalization that his acute hearing made it an inevitable consequence somewhat eased his conscience.The topics of Avery and her friends' conversation veered into the territory of the schoolboys they attended school with."Okay, so," Greer began, leaning in, "can we talk about Gabe for a second? Like, how he's the sweetest? Offering to carry our books all the time?"Tatum nodded eagerly, "Right? And have you seen Wyatt on the field? The way he winks at us after scoring...it's just too cute!"Greer, not to be outdone, added, "What about Rex? He's so mysterious and quiet, but when you catch him looking at you, it's like, wow, what's he thinking?"Avery sighed, "Totally get you. And Flint! His pranks are legendary. But did you notice how he's always trying to get Tatum's

    The tradition of celebrating their birthdays together had become a cherished part of their lives, with Tanner, Liam, Avery, and Ashleigh sharing a grand celebration each year. However, time waits for no one, and Avery's 13th birthday suddenly was on the horizon. This year, she yearned for something different: a celebration of her own.Avery joined the local werewolf school when Ashleigh started kindergarten, a departure from the usual practice of Alpha's children being homeschooled. She had created a rich group of friendships with children from other packs. Now, she was eager to host a party exclusively for them.Tanner, always the tease, feigned a dramatic pout. "Aww, but I was really looking forward to our joint birthday party this year," he joked, trying to tug at Avery's heartstrings with mock disappointment. It didn't work. Unfazed and armed with a quick wit beyond her years, Avery shot back, "You'll live... And while we're on the topic, bro, how exactly am I supposed to introd

    In the calm aftermath of the party, Marcus and Leona sought a moment with Gideon and Tanner. With a blend of seriousness and hesitation, Marcus initiated a conversation that Tanner had sensed might be on the horizon. "I know I agreed to be your Beta, Tanner," Marcus began, "But it seems plans have changed. Leona's been offered the Beta position in her pack. And with Gideon," he glanced at Gideon with a wry smile, "appearing to be immortal, it's unlikely you'll be stepping into the Alpha role anytime soon... no offense."Gideon, quick to catch the jest, interjected with mock indignation, "Thanks for the faith in my longevity," eliciting a burst of laughter from the group.With a weighty pause, Marcus resumed, his laughter subsiding solemnly. "In all seriousness, given Gideon's robust health and leadership and the stability it brings to our pack, it's only logical for Leona and me to embark on this new journey."Though not surprised by the news, Tanner felt mixed emotions. He had alway

    The pack house was alive with an unusual buzz that only comes around once in a blue moon, or, in this case, when multiple birthdays converge on the same day. Liam's 16th birthday had become a larger celebration, merging with Avery's request that her 8th birthday be celebrated alongside her brother. Liam, ever the doting older brother, agreed without hesitation. His love for Avery made the decision easy.Tanner laughed, "Well, since we're all in the mood for celebrating, why not throw my 22nd into the mix? It's not like I know the exact date of mine anyway." His comment was playful, yet Avery latched onto the idea with an infectious excitement.From the kitchen, Avla, overseeing the final preparations, couldn't help but join in the laughter. "And let's not forget Ashleigh!" she called out, amusement clear in her voice. "Seems like we've got a cluster of birthdays all at once. How curious!"Releasing Ashleigh from her high chair, the littlest of the family made a beeline for Tanner, cl
