2024-10-29 19:42:56Calli comes and grabs my arm, her blonde hair coming loose from its ponytail. She tucks it back with her free hand whilst pulling on me, stopping me from going after Daryl.
“Men” she rolls her eyes which makes me smile, in a way, she reminded me of Jordan who also didn’t give a shit about men or their rank, just look at Cole. “Just ignore him Ashley, I know he is your mate, but you have a right to independency and you need to know how to protect yourself.
She pulls me back to the other women and as she drops my arm and turns away I see a blue mark on her shoulder, similar to my crescent, only hers was almost a star shape, the other girls have one too but in different places, one had it on their stomach, wait, it couldn't be possible could it, were they all Royals here?
I needed to find Christian, my brain felt like it was being twisted, he had said that we were a different blood line, is that why they had a star mark rather than a crescen

Alpha Daryl 53. The watcher
She steps out into the clearing and faces me, her hair flowing down her body, a long purple dress hugging her figure, her eyes a dazzling shade of purple, she was in her element, this is something she had been planning for some time.“Oh Ashley, poor little Ashley” I stand there alone, facing the very bitch that had tried to kill meI say nothing as I try to focus on Reaper, the electric running through us was painful but I couldn’t lose her, I had only just found my other half, I had only just figured out who I was.“Where is Christian?”“Occupied” she doesn’t expand any further but I wanted to know what she had done to him“Where is he?” I snarl at her and she just laughs. If I ever get out of here, she will pay for what she has doneI fight against the electrical current, telling Reaper now was the time to come out but she was silent and unresponsive“How are you doi

How was it even possible, I wasn’t mated to him, I knew I liked him but surely that wasn’t enough to create sparks between us. As I raise my eyes to his, he doesn’t say anything about the sparks“She's dead?”It wasn’t so much Christians reaction I was waiting for but Daryl’s. I wanted to know if he loved her too like she had loved him.I nod my head, "But what happened to you?, you were right behind me""I got attacked by a rogue, don't worry, they didn't last long", he said no more but it made sense as to why he was in different clothes and why there was dirt smudged across his face.“I don’t believe you Ash”“Why would you Daryl, because you never believe anything I say”“It’s seems pretty unlikely”Christian snorts, something I was getting use to when he knew I was going to make a sarcastic comment“Fine don’t believ
Alpha Daryl 55. Rejection
As we crash to the floor, my head smashes against the edge of the fridge with a loud thud, what did Christian say? He said something about Daryl not being my mate.Whilst my body is sprawled out on the floor, making sense of what Daryl just said, the men are fighting and throwing each other across the room.Rubbing my head, I get on my feet “What did you say about Daryl?” but they don’t hear me as Christian launches Daryl into the cupboards, the clattering of saucepans ringing out as they clatter to the floor.“STOP!!”Both men stop what they are doing and look at me “Tell her” Christian speaks through clenched teeth“There is nothing to say” he brushes down his tshirt as he stands“Daryl, tell her”“Tell me what”“He is lying to you Ash, about your mate bond, you are not mated”“No. No, that cannot be true, I feel it, Reaper
Alpha Daryl 56. The truth will always come out
I don’t see Daryl for the rest of the day and I was grateful, instead I was spending the afternoon mulling over Christians words and wondering if he had felt the sparks between us like I had. Before leaving Christian had warned me that I might feel pain from rejecting Daryl but as time passed I felt nothing, literally nothing and it made me realise how little i actually know.Christian stuck to his word and slept on the white leather sofa in the room, he waited patiently outside whilst I sorted myself out and climbed into the large bed, it really was massive and I seemed oddly small in comparison but I knew I was safe with Christian not far away.At some point in the night I woke, tossing and turning, an unnerving gut feeling and sitting up I see Christian fast asleep and I push the odd sensation away from my mind and try to settle back down but I knew something wasn’t right.Sitting up, I whisper Christians name but he doesn’t stir.

Alpha Daryl 57. An unplanned surprise
Christian orders everyone to leave the three of us, he looks at Daryl “You’re not dying?”They had been friends for years, long before I came on to the scene and he hadn’t just lied to me but to his good friend. Everything that came out of his mouth was complete bullshit.Daryl flashes his eyes between us, we were both waiting for answers from the man who had lied to us“Fine, no I am not”“Why did you lie to me, to your mate, you and that stupid witch made out that you had less than a year to live. We grew up together, don’t you think I at least deserved the truth”“But you have been lying to me to Christian, I know exactly who you are or rather what you are, I know the both of you went off in search of blood”“It was never my plan to keep it away from you Daryl and then Ash came into your life, it just made it..... harder”“A friendship built on lies
Alpha Daryl 58. Sour blood
Searching the house and the grounds, he is nowhere to be found, Daryl is sparring with one of the men from Christians pack and watches me hastily march across the grounds. He doesn’t stop, nor does he call out to me and it finally felt like he was giving me a break. When I give up looking, Calli finds me and offers me another chance to train with her but it was getting close to the time that I needed to meet Tasha and I make my excuses.Checking around me as I near the forest, I slip in unseen and make my way back to the clearing where I had met the human. It didn’t take me long to find the place, Paige’s body was no longer on the ground and I wondered if the vampires had found her and removed her.I should have been more cautious about the vampires but I didn’t care, if needed to I would let Reaper deal with them. Checking the watch Daryl had given me, I was a few minutes early and bang on 2pm I see her auburn hair appear between the trees, thi

“Why did you run?” he grunts at me“I didn’t” he makes a move to come through the door but I block him“You can’t come in, I don’t want you here” I did not want him to find out about Tasha“Let me in, I can smell the blood”“No!” Reaper growls through me, she no longer believed in the mate bond and now after Christians kiss she felt the same as me, Daryl had violated us.“You cannot keep me away forever Ash, I am your mate”“No you are not, I rejected you, whether you accept it or not, we are not mates”He snarls again but turns on his heel and I stand there, making sure that he leaves as he climbs onto his motorbike and speeds away. When I finally shut the door, Tasha appears “You have a mate, does that mean boyfriend?”How was I going to explain this, it was hard enough for me to understand let alone telling someo

He had finally snapped, I don’t know why I didn’t think he would attack but he has. After a few minutes Calli sits up, her stomach wound almost fully knitted back together leaving a deep red mark but the same could not be said about the others, who continued to lie still.“You brought him here” she snaps at me“I didn’t, he isn’t who I thought he was”“What do you mean?”I give her the quick run down and tell her that its actually Christian who I am mated too. A smile appears on her face “I knew he was into you”I nod “But where has Daryl taken him”“Daryl and Amber have him in the prison”He had let Amber out, I don’t know how because Christian and his Beta were the only ones who knew how.“Amber did this?” I gesture at all the dead bodies and Calli sighs“Took us all by surprise.

Alpha Daryl Epilogue.
A few months has passed since all the craziness with Lucian. Things had settled down massively, well, apart from being thrown into motherhood and raising triplets. I was just glad I wasn’t doing it on my own.Daryl was still getting used to having a smaller pack. Although he had already been out trying to recruit other packs that were smaller than ours. Some had accepted whereas others had told him where to go. The pack was still much smaller than the average wolf pack with less than a hundred people now after many had lost their lives in the fight against my brother, but he was certain he would make it great again. After all, he really wanted to pass on an almighty pack to Daryl Junior, the eldest of the triplets.In just a few months the three of them had grown quite quickly, instead of being like three-month-olds, they looked more like eighteen month olds and certainly liked to keep me busy and on my toes, especially since they were already walking and running. I assumed they were

More bullets come as I keep low, the stench of Lucian’s blood filling the air as he hovers above me. With each bullet, I am splattered in his blood, but it continues to do little more than slow him down.“You have not learnt a thing!” he roars at me as his claws wrap around my neck, lifting me from the ground.I should have been afraid, scared for my own life as I faced death when he suddenly stills. My feet dangling in the air at least ten inches from the ground. His deep amber eyes staring into mine, but he was quiet, no sound was coming from Lucian and yet everyone around us was yelling.His claws pierced the skin of my neck, my own blood trickling down over my cool skin as I watched Lucian’s nostrils flare. He was enjoying my scent, like it was something he had been longing for. This was not in my plan.His teeth sink into my shoulder as I let out a scream, and I see people charging towards Lucian. Daryl was shouting out something about protecting the Luna.Lucian’s jaw refuses to

“I will stop this.” I try to reassure the tiny beast in my arms, but I still didn’t know if I could even kill him, if it was even possible.“She will never be yours!” Lucian’s voice howls around us making Natasha’s little beast cling to me harder. Her tiny claws piercing my skin as they dug into me, her body trembling as his voice echoes around us.“Drop the spell.” I whisper to the small beast. Lucian was using her to put the spell around the dungeons, to stop others from getting any closer, but she was still a baby, could she even understand what I was saying? Could my reassurance be enough?Her small furry body continues to tremble against mine until it suddenly stops, momentarily scaring the crap out of me. When I hear soft snuffles coming from her and gently turn her head. She had fallen asleep on me. She had gone from a terrified little beast to one in a deep sleep, she had needed me so much more than I had ever known, and I feel a shift inside of me. The need to protect her, no

“It’s not that simple is it. I may have some magical abilities, but he still has years over me. Years of training, years of knowledge, years of planning what he calls his redemption.”“But there is something he possibly didn’t account for. A mother’s love, a mate’s love. The fact that a whole pack will be right behind you.”It just didn’t seem true. Maybe I had been looking at this all wrong and it wasn’t just my fight anymore.“Then how am I supposed to make myself stronger?”“You already know Ash, look at the things you have been capable of. Personally, I don’t think you give yourself enough credit.”I was completely soaked from the heavy rain as I stared up into his amber eyes, the blue flecks shining brightly through the storm. It wasn’t just me that had changed but it seemed like he had too. His once sulky and moody self had mellowed out.“What ever happens Ash, you have three babies that need you.”I slowly bob my head, he was right, but I had still left them to check on my best

No one stops me, no one even comes after me as I race through the forest towards her house. She had to be here, it was where it had all started.As I break out of the forest, I see it, her small house sitting on the opposite side of the road. A trail of blood leading up the few steps as the door sat open. Anyone could walk in here, anything could have found her.Creeping towards the house, I knew the trail of blood belonged to her. It was dry though and had been sat here for a while, but it didn't remove her scent.“Tasha?” I call out her name as I step in through the front door, hoping for some kind of response but I was met with silence and what was worse is the trail of blood ended in the middle of the room. There was nothing, no body, no pool of dried red, but more importantly there was no sound.The floorboards didn’t creak like I was used to, no weird smell from all the herbal teas she had scattered around.“Can you hear her?” I mutter to Reaper. I didn’t even know why I was ask

The omega keeps her head low, not speaking as she remained in the room. She was our biggest risk right now; she was the only one to know that I had had a third baby and I couldn’t have her revealing that information, not to anyone.“You can’t say anything!” I plead with her, hoping that she would understand.“They need to be checked over.” She mumbles back at me and Daryl shakes his head“Kiera, you cannot tell anyone, you cannot share the news of Ash having a third child. Do you understand?” He was using his Alpha tone, a tone that I was only to familiar with.The omega gulps, her eyes wide as she slowly nods her head.“I need you to say it Kiera!”“I won’t tell anyone, but how are you going to hide her, what if she is a poorly pup?”Daryl looks between me and the omega as I gently rock our little girl.“Kiera, you will become Ashley’s personal maid. You will do nothing else in the house except for helping Ash and tending to the children and monitoring any changes in them!”“But the

“For you!” Lucian punches the stone wall of his cell, splitting the skin on his knuckles which heals instantly.“I don’t understand”“Of course you don’t sister.” He laughs manically as he tries to pull the bars apart. I was glad Daryl had reinforced them.“You weren’t to know I was going to have children.”He looks at me from the corner of his eye. I was so stupid, I had told him of the vision, the one where I was left alone with twins, the one where Daryl was not in the picture. How could I have been so stupid?“You told me that not all visions were correct that some were just created in my own mind!”“Yes, but I saw that vision too, sister. Getting into your head was much easier than you trying to get into mine. Any time your wolf was dormant, it left an opening. A chance for me to see everything!”“Just kill him Ash” Daryl links me"Whicjh is why you wanted Amber to trap me?"He starts clapping."About time you figured that out."“You would never have found me without Daryl!” I ye

The omega hands her to me, she was much smaller than the boys with tufts of dark hair that matched Daryl’s, bright amber eyes peeping out under her eyelids.I still didn’t understand, the doctor had shown me the monitor, pointed out the two boys, how could he have missed a third baby or even a third heartbeat.Silent tears run down my face as I look at the three of them, how could I protect them? How could I protect my daughter from my brother? He was so set on taking her.“You did well.” The omega smiles at me as she drapes something over my legs, but I glance at the door. I had a bad feeling growing in the pit of my stomach.“He’s coming.” I mutter.There is fear on the omegas face as her eyes widen and her body stills.“You’re scared of him?”“Every omega is.” She sits next to me.“You know I’m not talking about Daryl, don’t you?”She nods her head and mutters Lucian’s name back to me.“What did he do to you?”He didn’t have anything to do with the omegas.“You don’t know?” she que

It was strange after experiencing Amber's world!Being able to run through Lucian’s mind with his beast chasing me was something I had never considered happening, nor did I think it was even possible and yet here I am. To be in someone’s mind was almost disgusting, you never know what they might be hiding and it was apparent that Lucian had been hiding alot.I had never bothered to ask the name of his beast, but something tells me it’s up there like mine. Reaper, another name for death and she certainly did have a dark side.“Tell me where she is!” I scream as I continue to run.“Give us your daughter!”“I have already told Lucian, they are boys, no females.”“You lie! I can smell it. You are carrying a girl!”Here I had no bump, if anything my stomach was flatter than flat. Was this how Lucian really saw me?He chases me through the greyness of Lucians mind. There was no colour, like he only saw things a certain way. Anytime I get a chance to grab something to throw, I do. Lucian con
