My eyes close as Dad’s words sink in, Christov’s Beta participates in this shit, which means he is too. I know everything Josh does and Gabe, so how could his Beta be here and him not know.I shake my head and look at my dad, “What are we looking to kill inside that cottage?”My Dad shakes his head, “we need as many alive as possible, there are at least 6 shifters inside that house, the rest are human.”I look at him, “how many human’s, I can control the shifter’s with my powers, but the humans,” I shake my head.He chuckles, “last count was 4, leave the humans to us, you get the shifters under your power, we can secure the boy and get him to safety, then deal with the shifters in our cells.”I smile at him, “yea, I’m dealing with this bunch, I’m so tired of all this, they will tell me what I want to know or endure the consequences.” My father smiles at me, “aw there’s the evil glint in your eye, not such the sweetpea anymore, are you?”I raise my brows at him, “only to those who ar
I point to the glove box, “put that file in there.” I look at the side mirror to pull back out on to the road and that’s when I notice red/blue flashing lights and the faint sound of sirens coming up behind us in the distance. I look at Dimitri, “something big is going on for that many cars.”He turns to look out the back window and his eyes widen, “fuck yea, for a small town like this?”I pull out and turn the car, heading towards all the flashing lights. I stop as they all take a left in front of me down a dirt road, we watch all the State Police vehicles move at top speed past us, two ambulances, two vans go by us one is CSI (Crime Scene Investigations) and another that says Med Path Unit. We look at each other and shrug, “whatever happened doesn’t concern us, but it must be huge.”We pull into the town, which is only a few stores and a bed and bath. We enter all the stores and get weird looks from the owners as we walk around and then ask if they have seen our friend that has
I sit on the back steps just staring out over the garden with a cup of coffee clutched in my hands and tears again stream down my face. I don’t know how my mother does this, how she sleeps at night with all the screams of the children she rescued and healed on replay in her mind. I did just one and his screams and his terror flooded my mind. I hear the door open, and her scent surrounds me, my voice cracks, “hi Momma.”She sits down next to me and takes the cold coffee cup from my hands and holds them, I feel her power and her white light floods me, I don’t look at her and she doesn’t speak as the boys screams lessen in my mind and the terror that was his now vanishes. She lets go and places a hot cup of cocoa in my hands. Her voice is soft and soothing, “drink and then go lay down Abi, you need to rest and sleep now.”I turn to her, “how do you do it Momma, it’s too much.”She smiles at me, “Rayne removes it from me, as she just did for you.”I nod, “you were wrong about Alpha C
I pick up the phone and dial the counsel, I’m not getting into deep shit over this disgusting affair, and neither is Dimitri. I waited and a voice came over the phone, I explained that I found this file after they had removed everything that they thought belonged to Stano and they assured me that they would send someone over to collect it. I look around the office and it still feels off to me, there is something about this room that just isn’t symmetrical. I walk outside and look at the building and then go back inside and head for the kitchen that when I see Beta female Catherine, “hey, we got home late last night and didn’t see you.” She smiles weakly, “did you find out anything?”I nod, “we believe he was at the diner you told us about, the woman said that a man had stopped in after years of not showing up to get his wife some of her yeast rolls.” I smile at her, “we won’t stop looking for him, don’t worry, we will find him.”I start to walk out of the kitchen when I turn, ‘B
I woke up to the sound of giggling, and I know before I open my eyes that Tyler had infiltrated my bedroom. I roll to my side and keep my eyes closed, just long enough for him to think I’m still asleep. I peek through one of my eyes and he has my phone and is hitting goddess knows what. I don’t pay much mind, until I hear a ping, and he giggles again. I sit up on my elbows and look over his head at the phone. My eyes widen as I see the caller ID he is texting. I groan and lay back in the bed, slapping myself in the forehead and growl, “Tyler, why are you on my phone?”He climbs up on the bed, his face hovers over mine and his smile beams at me, “it’s my friend,” he says like he has any idea who he is texting or what he is texting.I look at him as he straddles my stomach with his tiny legs, I chuckle at him, “what’s your friends name?”I see him hitting the phone with his finger, his tongue sticking out the side of his mouth in deep concentration, then he looks up at me, “Wolf
I mind linked Dimitri to come to my office and bring a few warrior’s with him.Beta Catherine and I both pulled books off of the enormous wall of shelves and placed them at the other end of the office. We were only ½ way through when Dimitri and a few warriors entered. Dimitri chuckled, “you didn’t call us here to help you redecorate did you Alpha Christov?”I arch a brow, “no I didn’t, help us and move all the books from the shelves, Beta Catherine says that this office use to be double the size it is right now, and these shelves were not here years ago.”We continue to move books for another 30 minutes when one of the warriors pulls a book and the middle shelves open with a swoosh. We all stand there looking at the opening, I move towards it and Dimitri stands next to me, “don’t touch anything in there, not anything.”I only nod as I walk towards the opening, the scent of dried blood hits my nose and I stop, I turn to Beta Catherine, “call the counsel, I want someone down here no
I head to my office and walk past the family lounge and notice all my siblings are sitting in there with Nonna, the smell of popcorn hits my nose. I stop and poke my head inside and look around, “it’s not Sunday, what’s going on?”Nonna smiles, “Abi, it is Sunday, you’ve been sleeping sweetheart.”I walk to my office and open the door, “what day is today?”I stop and look at everyone in the room, Momma giggles, “Sunday, you slept the entire weekend away, using your power will do that.” I sit and stare at everyone, “so what’s going on, what have I missed?”Beta Josh looks at me, “Alpha Abigail, we called the counsel and Investigator Ryan was here and interviewed the prisoners in the cells. Only one was forthcoming with information, he said that he was there but not to do anything but to get more information on the people that are running this ring. He also said that when you interrogated him, you didn’t allow him to properly explain anything.”My eyes widened to them all, “I could
I wake up, take a shower and get dressed, I walk into the kitchen and grab some coffee and walk past my brother without saying a word, I get to the door and he speaks, “Alpha Christov, maybe you should come and train some this morning, it might do you some good.”I grunt at him and walk out the door, I go to my office, the door in the bookcase is now sealed by the counsel investigator and I’m glad that this part is over. The phone on my desk rings and I answer, “Iron Claw, Alpha Christov,” today I’m not pleasant and I don’t care, last night did it for me. After Investigator Ryan left, I let Boris out for a run and my mind thought deeply about my mate, the female made just to fit perfectly with me, the same female that has made it clear from the second we met she has no interest in me, no feeling for me, no want or need. Boris doesn’t agree with me and argued on her behalf, but I know the truth even telling him she tried to reject us just a few days ago, her feeling are not changing
I stare into the most beautiful face I’ve ever seen, sky blue eyes blink open, as little pink lips part with a toothless yawn. I blink back my tears and smile down at our perfect little bundle. Christov’s large hand cradles the mop of black curls that adorn his perfect head, he whispers, “Alexader fits him Momma, what do you think?”A tear falls down my cheek as I look at our son, “Alexander is perfect, Daddy.”Christov eyes dart to mine and he smiles wide, “you did so good little dove, so very good.”I nod, “yea, he’s perfect in every way isn’t he, I don’t think I’ve seen a more handsome boy.”He sits down on the bed and puts his arm around me, kissing my temple, “he looks like you that’s why.”I laugh, “he looks just like his Daddy and I think your pretty perfect.”A soft knock hits the door, and I know our quiet moment is over, I look up at him, “there all out there aren’t they?”He nods and smirks, “yea, and I think the hospital wants them all gone, they are taking up all of the
Today is Tyler's 6th birthday, he's more than excited for his party, which is being held at our house, which I didn't fully understand why, until this morning. My Momma arrived at 7am and fully charged and ready to be a grandmother. I woke up to the smell of her cooking and nearly fell on my face getting out of bed, Abigail had her leg wrapped mine and wouldn't let go. She smiled at me as I glared at her, "surprise," she said hesitantly. I lay back down and pulled her into me, well as close as her huge baby bump allows and she giggled, "Dimitri picked her up an hour ago at the airport," she says softly to me.I shake my head, "nice, so she is Tyler's big gift, or the little man knew she was coming and that is why he is so excited to have his party here," I cock a brow at her.She pouts, "you knew she was going to be here for our pup so she came a few days early," she pushes at my side for me to get up and I know she has to use the ensuite. I move and help her stand and watch as s
I’m staring at Christov when it hits me, “baby, you never told me what happened to your face?”He looks at me confused, “the scare in my eyebrow? That happened when I was a pup, my brother Ivan…”I shake my head, “no, the claw marks, the ones I healed, how did it happen?”I watch as he visibly gulps and stands up coming over to me, he pulls me out of my chair and sits in it, placing me on his lap, “now before you react, let me just say this, she was so sorry, seconds afterwards.”I arch a brow at him, “she? Who is she?” I'll kill the she-wolf that thought it was fine to hurt him.His arms tighten around my waste, “Luna Charlie, she was upset over the video and…”I growl, “are you telling me that my Momma attacked you.”He looks me in the eye, “Abi, she was so hurt and angry and yes she did, but she wanted to heal me seconds later, but Braddock stopped her and I don’t blame him or her, in her mind I had done the unspeakable to you and I can understand it more today than I did then.”
When we announced to the pack that their will be a winter solstice festival, which will help in creating our solidarity, the Iron Claw members were excited, they had never experienced anything like it and truth be told neither had I. As I sat at my desk I looked at Abigail, her tongue sticking out of the side of her mouth as she concentrated on the financial report, it’s a huge undertaking now that our pack is so big, but I can’t help admire just how smart and beautiful my mate is. I finish up with all the new alliance contracts that will be sent out, now that we have combined both packs, all our alliances need to sign contracts again and it is all to their benefit, since we are now the largest pack.Gamma Dimitri and Gamma Gabe moved into their floors here, but our Beta’s have stayed in the original pack houses, keeping someone of higher rank closer where the pack members are was a decision we both agreed upon. We haven’t told our pack members about their heir yet, Abigail wants t
Luna Lana was over the moon about having a grandpup, her first and I can’t help but rub my ear as her squeal is still ringing it. We sit at the island in the kitchen, yes still naked and Christov eyes me up. I giggle, “see something you like Alpha?”His growl is playful as I move back against the farmers sink to give him a full view, he moves off his stool and stalks me like prey, his eyes swirling with undeniable lust when a hard bang hits the front door. His head snaps towards it as if he is going to kill whoever is on the other side and I chuckle. He grabs me by the waist and kisses me quickly and then moves towards the foyer. I scream, “Christov, clothes!”He laughs, “we’re werewolves, people see us this way all the time.”I arch a brow to him, “really, you walk around with my lollypop at full attention around the pack?”He looks down at himself and I grab his hand, “come on, we need to get something to cover you up.” I yell out as we hit the stairs, “give us a minute.” I h
When he picked up me up I didn’t know how to tell him, I just found out I’m pregnant and we hadn’t really discussed when we wanted to have a pup, but I was sure he didn’t want one now, not when we are so newly marked and mated. Not to mention that we still have so much work to do with combining the two packs, making it all work right. I need time to get it straight in my own head first, really know what I want to do with this. When he pulled up to our home, I had no idea it would be ready, but to see what he had done, to see all our furniture, arranged just as I wanted in the living room and the painting, oh my baby has talent. I couldn’t believe he had done a painting of our union, and it is beyond anyone’s imagination. The falls, the wildflowers and the princess carriage, me in my momma’s dress and him in his tuxedo, but what captured me the most, the golden dragon in the distance with a small boy riding it and the black wolf that sits on top of the carriage holding the reins in
To say I’m excited is an understatement, we’ve worked tirelessly all day moving furniture in to our new home, Abigail has no idea that the house is ready and surprisingly enough no one has let it slip. The news that our Beta couple is with pup and the shit storm that Gabe has caused in the Crescent Moon pack house has kept her far away. We made one decision about our new home, that both Gamma’s will move in immediately to this one, yea, Braddock isn’t so keen of having Gabe around all the time now since Teresa has just turned 14 and he’s 26. They will move in tomorrow though, tonight it is just my little dove and myself, yea, we are going to be busy tonight for sure.Abigail had picked out every bit of furniture a month ago, so having it all delivered yesterday and today was easy enough, the only thing that I didn’t do was set up the kitchen or stock it. I made sure we had water, juice and stuff for breakfast and of course, there is a bottle of Champagne in every room on ice and j
It’s been a couple of weeks and now the dust has finally settled from our union and the council being here. It’s Sunday and as promised we are heading to dinner and movie night with my family. I can’t lie and say I don’t miss the day to day chaos that is my family, but I do appreciate it more when I have some control of the amount I receive. Christov chuckles as he opens the door to the foyer, “ready for it, because they know we’re here.”He opens the door and to our surprise only Tyler is there, and he is sitting on the bottom step, with his little fists under his chin. We walk inside and he doesn’t even look at us, I walk towards him and kneel in front of him, “hey bud, you okay,” I muss his hair, and he shakes his head and scoots his bottom away from me. I turn looking up at Christov and he smiles down at me as he kneels now in front of Tyler, “hey little man, what’s wrong?”Tyler looks at him and wrinkles his nose, “I don’t like girls anymore.”Christov’s expression is pricele
I sit behind my desk listening to Abigail and Cynthia as they talk about Sasha, Abigail is pacing the office, her rage is boiling over and Cynthia sits just watching her as she speaks softly and calmly to her, “Alpha Abigail, I’ve been talking with Sasha for 3 days now, she was just beginning to open up about what she had experienced when you came barging in.”Abigail stops dead and glares at her, “did you ask if you could speak to a prisoner? Or do you think you do not need to follow protocols any longer since she is your son’s fated mate?”Cynthia flinches at the accusation and raises her hand to Abigail, “stop right there Alpha Abigail, I do not need anyone’s permission to evaluate a potential victim, whether they are my son’s fated or not, it is my job to assess, evaluate and report to you my findings.”Abigail arches a brow at her, “fine, so the rest of the prisoners, did you evaluations them, or just Sasha?”Cynthia frowns, “just Sasha.”Abigail frowns, “So I’m right, you’re con
