Blake P.O.V.5 days later I’m sitting in my office when my beautiful mate suddenly comes running through the door giggling madly, someone chasing her. She makes a leap and I hurriedly push my chair backwards and catch her in my lap. Her giggles intensifies when Tristan rushes through the door after her. He scowls at her when he sees her in my lap, and I smirk at him. “Baby, what did you do?” I ask her, and she just shrugs with the biggest smile on her face. Tristan places his hands on his hips. “Not fair hiding in your mates lap, Allie.” He says with an eye roll. Allie sticks his tongue out at him and fishes something out of her pocket. She quickly stuff her mouth full of it, while Tristan looks on helplessly. “Did she steal your food again, dude?” I ask with a laugh and Tristan just groans.“If you would just feed her once in a while instead of only doing other adult things..” “You mean fuck her brains out?” Allie coughs on her food, choking. I slap her on the back while Tristan
Allison P.O.V. The alarm going off in the packground stops the chase Tristan and I have had going since I stole some of his favourite cookies. I love teasing our Beta. He feels like an elder brother to me, and we have a connection deeper than just ranked wolves. I have it with Elliott as well, but more like a best friend kind of thing. I love spending time with all of them, Elliott’s sweet mate included. The way she came in during the meeting with the Councilmen and comforted me - no questions asked. Just pure comfort and support. I never thought something like this would ever happen to me, but here I am. “Fuck! Allie you need to go down to the safe room…” I just stare at my Beta like he is an idiot for even thinking such a thought. I would never just hide when my pack is in danger. I may not be trained, but I am the Luna of this pack and I will be damned if I do not try to defend it when an enemy is
Allison P.O.V.“... serious threat. We need to take every precaution we can.” Blake and I walk through the door as one of the Councilmen stops talking. We’re holding hands, our heads held high. We are the Alpha couple of this pack. Blake made it obvious when we were changing clothes and getting washed that he would not tolerate anything less for me. I am to be his equal in this pack. Both Alpha’s in our own right. I argued that Tristan had told me that even if a female is born to an Alpha, she will be a Luna with Alpha blood when she mates, but Blake just shrugged. “That may be how others do it, baby. But I am not going to take this away from you. Unless you don’t want it, I will make it clear that you are my Alpha mate and will be Alpha to this pack as well as I am.” I asked to think about it, and he gave me as much time as I needed. It’s wondrous that he will even allow it. Dawn told me privately that Alpha males usually are very territorial about their positions. “Greetings every
Blake P.O.V. The sun hits my face, and I turn in the bed to draw Allie into me. The meeting yesterday ended sometime late last night, and everyone agreed to my invitation to stay the night in our packhouse. I talked to Head Councilman Eddar and Alpha Elias after everyone else had gone to bed, after I had made sure Allie was okay and in bed as well. They both told me not to worry about the Beta of Night Howl. He is traumatized, but I still can’t shake the feeling something is off with him. I know Allie and Dawn felt the same way at the meeting, as she continuously tried to get a read on him. My arms hit empty space on the side where Allie was supposed to lie next to me, and I sat over end. Where is my mate? ‘Baby?’ My panicked mind voice tries to reach her, and luckily she answers right away. ‘Morning darling. I’m in the downstairs kitchen. I couldn’t wake you, and I wanted to help make breakfast. I left a note on the side table and the pillow.’ I look at the pillow and there is a
Allison P.O.V. The flight from our pack to the Night Howl pack is only a couple of hours, although the drive was so long. I made it a point to visit Mr. F. after we decided to go back for Tristan’s mate and explain things to him. I told him if he had any wishes for anything to go to Elliott or Cassie, and who they are in our Rank. He asked me to be careful. Omega’s are caring for him, as he is still very weak. I also implored Elliott to keep an eye on him for me, which he promised.Blake has kept me close ever since we took off, knowing this is going to be hard no matter how much I am focusing on Tristan and his search for his mate. He mindlinked that he still smells her scent on Alpha Elias and Luna Helen, so the possibility is that she is the Omega who tends to their clothes, or someone who works closely with them.‘Allie, does Pete have any siblings?’ Blake suddenly asks, as we are in the car bringing us from the airport to the packlands. I think hard on this one.‘He may have men
Allison P.O.V.“What the actual fuck what that?” I yell, Blake trying to get me to calm down, but I just point a finger at him. We might not have been together for very long, but even he knows not to come between me and whatever pissed me off. “Excuse me?” Alpha Elias says, crossing his arms, but I just stare him down until he squirms. “Well, I better let Pete explain what is going on.” “No! You better do a fucking better job at being the Alpha here, Elias. You are supposed to be the leader, and nonetheless I was the one who had to interfere when your Beta overstepped and tried to come between the matebond. You need to do better!” He scoffs, as he glares at me. “Young lady..” “Don’t you dare ‘young lady’ me, you old fool! You let your bastard of a son terrorize this poor pack, his fated mate, me, and everyone else around him. You let him take the title without a second thought when you found your second chance mate. You do not have the power to scold me. You’ve made mistakes, grav
Bane P.O.V. “Sir, the agent from Night Howl is back.” One of my men says with a deep bow of his head. I lazily gesture for them to step forward. We are currently bunked down in a small pack we overtook a few days ago. I have managed to gather 150 rogues under me so far. They are so willing to come when I promise them free women and killing if they just do as I say, when I say it. It was a piece of cake to be voted Alpha of the Rogues, and now I am in control. Iron control. The little pack we overtook fought bravely, but we killed every warrior and child, keeping the women for fun and games. Especially the little Alpha’s daughter has been a pleasure to break in since the attack. Her family is one of the only ones not dead - they are captives in the cellars. Leverage so she will behave properly.“What news from my old pack?” I ask, looking at the spy. “Your former mate and her new boytoy were there yesterday, Alpha.” She says with a grimace to her companion. I scowl. So Annab
Blake P.O.V. The flight home, after we accepted Lianne into our pack, was uneventful, thank the Moon Goddess. Lianne and Allie made smalltalk and seemed to hit it off quite a bit, although Allie kept giving Lianne glances of confusion or concern. I made a mental note to ask her when we were back home, but it was so late when we finally reached the packhouse, I decided to wait. Lianne and Tristan went to his room in the packhouse, and I mindlinked his parents about the findings in the Night Howl pack, and that they should give them space to get to know each other before raining down with questions and happiness. My aunt made a rude comment I deliberately overheard. I also got a notification on my phone about a bounty the Council had issued on Bane. He was to be taken alive or dead, I myself preferred the last, to be brought to justice for his crimes against our community. I sent it to some of our associates, doubling the fee if they killed him within the next month. I have no doubt i
Allison P.O.V. Everything happened so fast. Athena crying. Me going to sooth her. Picking her up from her pram to check if she needed to have her diaper changed before a feeding. The yell from Blake. I felt the magic thrown at me and I screamed, turning to protect my child from harm. Who dared to try to harm me or her in our own house? I could not be anyone but the Council member who was blessing Pete and Dia a moment ago. Everything is chaos as the magic slams into something, but I don’t feel a thing. Did Blake manage to get in front of me? I fucking hope not. I will kill him if he tries to sacrifice himself for us. Well, no I won’t, but I will scold him about foolish acts! Dust all around me. I can’t see a thing. Someone yells my name. “ALLIE?!” I didn’t even notice I was crouched on the floor with my child. I stand, and then I see it. A amethyst colored shield bubble all around me. I look down to see my daughter with her silver eyes shining. I guess not all magic in her is bound
Blake P.O.V.An uproar follows my statement. People are shouting over each other, but no one is shouting as loud as Elias. “How dare you! I’m here, aren’t I? Even with the knowledge of my son being after me and my Luna, I still came to this Goddess forsaken debate club. You are all fools to think you can win over him, but I came anyway. To show my allegiance to all of you.” All at once people shut up and glare at the Alpha who is breathing heavily now. He talked over, and he knows we know he did. I smirk. ‘We’ll need them to vote in Pete favor babe.’ Allie mindlinks me, and I have just the right thing to push this along nicely. I look at our table where Greyson has been sitting amongst my pack members unnoticed. I nod to him. He swallows, stands and walks to my side, Tabatha at his side, her hand clasped tightly in his. I hadn’t noticed she had switched tables in all the comotion, but looking at our table again I see both Talia, Dia and Athale amongst my family. I smile internally.
Allison P.O.V. “Alpha Blake, the joke with your womenfolk burying us is not really funny.” Alpha Issac says from a couple of chairs down our own table. Blake just looks at the Alpha with a bored expression. “No, that is why it was not a joke, Alpha Issac.” He answers, taking a bite of his BLT sandwich. Dawn snickers in my mind. She loves how our mate just takes for granted that we can beat all the Alpha’s present - I mean he is probably not entirely wrong either. Most of them are cocky and arrogant creatures, who will underestimate me and Dawn and lose a fight. My wolf did swoop the ground with Bane’s rogue Alpha wolf not that long ago. ‘We’re not some simpering Luna, we’re an Alpha female and they don’t believe that one bit. They think Blake is trying to intimidate them. I can’t wait to prove them wrong.’ I snort out loud, harnessing the attention of the table. Blake’s eyes have that glint of not well hidden amusement, so Shadow probably told what Dawn said to me. “Something you
Blake P.O.V“Are you sure you’re okay, bro?” Tristan asks for the millionth time since yesterday, laughing and dodging my swat when I turn around. “If you ask me one more time, Tristan, I am going to make sure you are seated with the most irritating, old fashioned and persisting of the Alpha’s throughout today and tomorrow.” I growl back, making him laugh even more. Allie gave me a really hard time after she slapped my face. My cheek was red for almost an hour, that was how much force she put into it, telling me exactly how pissed she was. Then she proceeded to stand up, walk over to Talia, thank her for having her and the packs back, asking for our daughter and sitting down again with Dia and Pete. She ignored me for the rest of the day, except if she had something Athena related or pack related to say. She actually didn’t say much at all now that I think more about it. She listened, observed. Something about her had changed when she came to, but I couldn’t put my finger on it. Eve
Allie P.O.V.The world goes dark. My body feels limp and numb as someone or something brushes me from behind. The anger of the indication that Talia should put me to sleep just because I want to protect my child is ridiculous, and I feel betrayed by both her and Blake. Darkness. Quiet.Something stirs from the darkness. I’m aware I’m still trapped inside my own mind. I still can’t feel anything other than my own breathing, and the sparks from the matebond - which means Blake has me in his arms. I can’t hear anything. Just feel little things. The something moves closer to me. I look around with my mental self. ‘Come on, little one. We are awaited somewhere else.’ I recognize Dawn’s magnificent figure and presence. “Are you just okay with them doing this to us?” I ask her, all my initial deflated anger, flaring up again. ‘Our mate was right. We were not ourselves, and he acted as an Alpha to protect us and the pack. I don’t care if you kick his ass for not explaining properly, I wou
Blake P.O.V. “Are you sure, Dia?” I ask, looking down at Allie with worry filling my entire body. She is my mate and my everything. Athena is our daughter, and I love her, but Allie is my mate and number one concern at the moment.“I’ll need some more information from Princess Tabatha, but yes I’m fairly certain I’m right about this.” Pete grabs her hand, lifting it and kissing the backside with a small smile. Dia blushes. They are a great pair, and Pete deserves some happiness at last. He has been struggling so much with having a crazy Alpha, then a weak one if Greyson is to be trusted, which I do, and everything with his sister. Something hits me - their ranked members; if Greyson goes back with them they are going to be mainly magical on the female side. Well, that is certainly going to be a change for the pack. A good one I think. Definitely a needed one. Pete doesn’t know, but I have all intentions of having him instated as Alpha of the Night Howl pack instead of their current A
Blake P.O.V. After fifteen minutes we’re all back in the room. Allie has borrowed a pram from one of our nurses, who was keeping it from her first child, and was very happy to be able to help her Alpha’s. Athena is sleeping soundly with Allie’s hand on her, and everyone else is getting situated - with food and drinks. “Baby, how about I keep an eye on Athena and you get some food? When did you eat last?” Allie shrugs, but I’m not really sure she’s hearing me. “Allie?” Talia comes to our side, removes Allie’s hand from Athena and cups her cheeks. Allie growls, probably because of the lack of physical contact of her child, for the way Talia is cupping her cheeks - who knows?“Allison! You need to eat, and you need to pay more attention! She is fine. Athena is right here with you and with us. No one is going to hurt her or steal her. I promise on my life and on that of my sister.” “HEY!” Tabatha protests from the bed, but Talia shoots her a glare over one shoulder. “But you need to
Allison P.O.V. “Everything that is said in this room is to stay between the people in this room. Are we clear?” Blake asks when everyone is situated on chairs and the floor. People nod silently. Their looks vary from intrigued to concerned to suspicious. Pete is in a wheelchair, and is looking better than when he arrived at our pack borders. We’ll need to get his story as well. This is going to be a long ass day with lots of talk and planning. It’s necessary, I know that, but it doesn’t make it any less tedious. “We’ve planned for breaks and meals - we need to get the full picture from Tabatha and Talia and then hear what Pete has to tell us. It’s vital we are on top of everything when the Summit starts tomorrow. We all know Bane is a crazy motherfucker, and he might decide to attack with the Alpha’s here only to prove a point - whatever that might be.” I say, rocking Athena in my arms. She’s babbling in baby and looking up at me. I look down into her silver eyes, smiling at my litt
Allison P.O.V. “Well, I guess first of all you need to know that I have the gift of foresight.” Tabatha says with a sigh of resignation. I look at her with curiosity. Blake still has his arms crossed. I can feel his emotions down the bond, and although he absolutely loves our little Athena with every fiber in his being, he is so pissed by the way she has come into our lives, and needs answers before he can relax. Not that I blame him one bit. I need answers myself.“You mean you can see the future?” I ask, as Blake just stares at her with narrowed eyes. I tell him to stop being an asshole over our mindlink and he promptly ignores me. Rolling my eyes at my mates' antics, I pull my attention back to the woman in the bed. Her aura and everything is so different from the day I met at the lingerie store. She is warm, somewhat fragile and open, whereas she was cold, snippy and felt evil that day. “Yes, sometimes. I can’t do it whenever I want to, but if the vision is strong enough, I can
