We left early this morning before she came over. I know it makes me a cowardly of me for how I did it but she made herself clear that this isn’t what she wanted. Max whimpers and whines as we get further and further away from her. But I shove him to the back of my mind. The last thing I need is him making me feel worse than I already do. There was another rogue attack while I was gone but my men told me it was the same ones that killed that young girl, they have one in custody and hopefully they will spill whatever they know about these attacks. I know what you are thinking. I should have fought for her. well this isn't one of those kinds of stories. Leaning back in my seat, I really need to make these more comfortable. I put on my headphones and listened to the pack report Neal sent me yesterday.
Not being able to sleep, I watch movies on my laptop while I drink some hot chocolate. It h
Charlotte POV He left, just walking out as if these feelings meant nothing. I mean I can’t say I helped when I said I wouldn’t mind if he left me behind. But I wasn’t expecting him to actually listen. I’ve gone my whole life angry about what happened to my family. The rogue that killed them seeked power, to be worshipped. No one should be forced to rule under some jackass. I learned this world is cold and heartless before I even hit puberty. I traveled a lot moving from state to state, town to town. I’d hide in trees and live in abandoned buildings people left to build up dust. Doesn’t sound like the best way to live but it was better than what he wanted me for. I’m a half breed, my dad was a human and my mother was a wolf. She didn’t care that my father was human; he tried really hard to fit in with everyone in the pack! They met when she was at a cafe in Italy, he explained it as a disaster because he forgot how to talk an
Have you ever felt like your soul has been cut into two halves? Or that you have a part of yourself you don’t quite understand yet? How’d you deal with it? Because I have been chilling on the couch trying to figure out what to do with myself. Looking around all I see is things,materials that are used to fill up the empty space in this house. None of it is truly important or needed, but it makes the place feel more homey and warm. Without it the house would feel like an empty box with painted walls and windows. That's why it's important to have people in your life, because otherwise life would be plain and leave you hollow inside. But trying to live life in general does that to you already right? Because life doesn’t come with a manual on who you are supposed to be or how you are supposed to act during difficult situations. You just do your best and hope you make the right ones. Some are born blessed with everything handed to them or their lives alread
Alex POV Covering over all the details of how that little girl died. I’ve still got nothing, however the new rogue member has found herself helpful by giving us coordinates to where their pack is. We’ve been setting up plans on ways to get on the inside before they figure out we know where they are. Creed has set up cameras in the woods pointing towards their territory. They have 9 people on morning patrol and 12 at night. Weird they have more at night than during the day. The ‘king’ hasn’t come close to the line and makes me wonder if he ever leaves. Sighing I hand Ryan the photos he brought to me that he took this morning. Getting the photos helps me send them to red who researches people for me. He’s great at his job. He found out about everything about everyone in the pack in a week.“ Creed, what do you know about the attack I heard about in my grandparents' town yesterday?” I asked&n
Charlotte POV Waking up groggy I walked to the kitchen for some water, yawning. I open the fridge and grab a bottle, opening it and taking a few sips. The sun isn’t up yet and I still have a lot of work to do on my car, I still haven’t been able to figure out what’s wrong with it. When I first got it I took it apart and put it back together so I’d know everything about it, so when days like this came along I wouldn’t have this issue. However I’m stumped. I put in a new battery, changed the spark plugs, breaks, tires, everything I could with what I had around the house. Gramps offered for me to use his car to go to the store, which I plan on doing when the sun comes up. He said they went out to the town yesterday afternoon and the smoke had cleared up some and should be fully cleared in the morning, which is good because food has gone from could be used to needed. It's been a week since my car shut d
Alex POV Pushing up some meetings for when I get back home from Europe. “Creed! Does Alpha Elijah have the plan to set up security around his border line to make sure his children in his pack are safe?” I asked “ Yes sir.” He signed plopping down in the chair in front of my desk. Sitting at my desk I go over lunch schedules for meetings I can’t pushback. As I typed out an email my phone starts vibrating on my desk. “ you going to get that?” Creed asked “ yeah in just a second, stamp this, mail this and file this” I tell him handing him papers beforepicking it up, the first thing I can tell is it’s Charlotte
Creed and I helped fix the broken window, it wasn’t as easy as I expected it to be. With the car however, I just dropped it off at an auto shop and they said it should take them a couple hours. We set up cameras on the outside perimeter of her house, also checking to see if my grandparents' cameras caught anything. “ Got anything?” I asked, tapping my finger on the desk. My grandpa let us use his office which was really helpful “ Yeah no, one who did it either knew there were cameras or just didn't get close to the house enough for them to catch anything.” Ryan shrugged “ how would they get the window then the cameras pick up pretty far right?” I asked pacing back and forth. “ I’m sorry sir, these two that face her house are the two I had to repair, the distance isn’
Unknown POV “ why the fuck did you idiots attack without knowing she was even home?” I growled “ Now she’s on the alert and it seems she brought company. Not only did you make this more complicated but you also made it a war against another fucking alpha!” I groaned “ I’m sorry sir, we didn’t get close enough to the house to be spotted like you asked” he told me “ Oh really? Well that makes it so much better!” I mocked “ Sir, why do you think the alpha is going to be a problem?” The other man asked “ well let’s see because when you went back to the house tonight where was he?” I asked “
She hasn’t spoken to me since this morning, I don’t know any other solution other than her coming back with me. It’s not like I'm getting down on one knee and asking her to marry me. This is for her protection, and my peace of mind. Grandma said that she could be conflicted because of what happened to her pack in the US. But my pack is safe, nothing like that would happen while she's under my care. “ I can see the wheels spinning in your head, boss. Thinking about her are we?” Creed asked winking at me “ Can you go two minutes without being creepy?” I groaned rolling my eyes at him “ I’m just saying maybe you should go talk to her instead of waiting for her to come to you. You both obviously have the stubbornness of a mule” he gripes picking up a piece of toast that was on my plate

*5 years later* Alex POV Have you ever wanted to be someone else? That was the question that I’ve been asking myself all these years. With the stress of life getting me down I couldn't help but wonder what it would of been like. But now I wouldn’t ever want to change a thing. Charlotte is strong, she’s a warrior in disguise. Never in my lifetime would I have thought that someone so small, so beautiful, would turn my life upside down for the better. She's over come all her fears and became everything the pack needs in a Luna plus more. We’ve made three beautiful children. That are more then a handful and keep me on my toes that's for sure. My daughter Lilly, she’s the strongest out of all three of them. Determined. She wants to be alpha one day, but I've told her she can't since her brother is first born. She's ranked
“ So what made you think I wouldn’t come for you?” I started swinging around the knife in my hand “ Char. This isn’t you” Creed huffed from outside the cell. He was kicked out when he decided he didn’t want to hand me the knife. “ What are you going to do Charlotte? Hmm? Listen to him, this isn’t you. You aren’t a killer. I bet you didn’t even kill that alpha either. It would have changed you. But not like this” he grunted, spitting out blood. Not that it mattered. “ I’m not going to kill you. I’m going to make you want me to kill you. Then I’ll let you go. You’ll stink of blood and the rogues hanging around our borders won’t hesitate to take advantage of attacking you. See you lied to me. Betrayed me. Gave me up to die while you hid for your own life. And when I go back to that hole in the ground. I’
After my long talk with Alex he didn’t seem very pleased about me telling Creed first. But I couldn’t help it. It just came out like word vomit. But he wasn’t mad at me like I thought he would be. Instead he held me close and kissed me. I didn’t tell him about Creed kissing me on the forehead though. Because it felt right, and comforting. Henry had been retrieved and brought to the pack house cells. After spilling what I’ve been holding to myself he felt it wouldn’t be smart for me to go back there until I can overcome what happened. And maybe he’s right. I asked him if he was found where I told him and he said yes but once I’m better he suggested I should go and look at the place myself. I haven’t been there since we were kids so I’m sure it doesn’t look much different from then. Well unless Henry did something to it. Sitting in the kitchen I wait for breakfast to be made while I sip a
“ You are so delicious dear.” He hummed in my ear with his hand pinning me down. Looking around the room I search for a way out. Something to hit him upside his head. At this moment I prayed to the goddess that I could shift. I’d shift right now no matter how much it hurt or if it killed me. He moved his right hand off my hip and gripped my jaw making me look at him. All I see is pure evil in his eyes. With my free hand I reach for the book he picked up off the ground. “ shhhh calm down dear. I promise you’ll enjoy this.” He smiled, reaching his hand down between us. Tears rub down my face as I reach for the book the best I could. Trying not to alarm him, I press my fingertips against the cover trying to flip it over. “ Why don’t we lose these pants huh?” He whispered, pressing his lips against my cheek. Pressing harder on the book it flips over l
Charlotte POV I didn’t mean to cut my leg as badly as I did, but I also tell myself I didn’t mean to kill him. Hearing Alex’s voice it was sure Creed would rat me out to him, tell him everything. But he didn’t. He finished cleaning me up, explaining to me that Alex will be joining us for lunch and it would be wise to wear pants otherwise he’ll notice and will have questions. It seemed smart but I don’t want to hide anything from him. The last thing I need is him growing suspicion between me and Creed. Putting on a pair of Jean shorts and a kind of nice shirt that buttoned up. I decided to leave my hair down. Only adding some leave- in conditioner to help keep it from tangling too bad. Walking out of the bathroom I slip on my sneakers and head downstairs with Creed. Alex was waiting by the front door in a pair of jeans and a black t- shirt.
Okay I’ll admit I didn’t like the idea of her coming along as we hung down the guy I handed her over to. But she was right, she’s the only person who knows where this place is. After spending that night with her in the living room we’ve still been sleeping in different rooms. As much as I want to, I don't want to push anything on her. She’s finally talking again even though it’s always only about the pack and Henry she’s still talking. I love hearing her voice. But the way Creed was staring at her yesterday was weird, I need to make a note to discuss that with him. I understand that they’ve gotten pretty close since he saved her but he looks at her differently. Writing an email out to everyone about the Luna ceremony needing to be Postponed until she’s ready. Hopefully my grandparents will understand, my grandma has only been planning it since my sister's ceremony. Granted that was rushed due to her having my first nephew. I still don’t understand why
“ Wake up!” Creed yelled through my head making me jerk “ This better be important” I growled back looking down at Charlotte sleeping next to me. She rolled over late in the night away from me, as much as I wanted to stop her and hold her tight I didn’t. She's curled up in a ball hugging one of the pillows with the blanket over her head “ I think we know where Henry took off to” he said making me sit up “ Where are you?” I asked standing up from my spot stretching my arms and legs “ in your office” he said, cutting off the link. Sighing I look over to her knowing I should wake her up. Pulling the blanket off her she groans hugging her legs “ you’ve got to get up” I tell her in a calm voice&n
Alex POV She stormed out after hearing me say I wanted her to become my Luna sooner than later. She almost died.. not because we were attacked but because I sent her out to the person that wanted to kill her. No sign of Henry when we showed up either. I made Ryan search the territory for his body. He had to have skipped out before we showed up. I need to find him, I want him dead. He’s the whole reason she got mixed up in this mess. I can see the pain in her eyes every time I look at her. Since we got her back she hasn’t looked at me nor wanted to touch me. I’ve been sleeping in my office because the cold shoulder in bed kind of sucks. Creed and her have gotten closer than I like. I still don’t understand why she’s so attached to him all of a sudden. Grandma tried talking to her again this morning but she said she still won’t even look at her. After dinner I followed her scent and it led he
