Walking out of the bedroom, I keep my hand locked with Christians whilst Tasha trots along beside us. Marco had already said he expected my mate to be the King and I needed to show him that Christian was in fact very much alive.

As we round the corner of the empty hallway we practically run into Breydon “My Queen” but he stops as he catches sight of Christian and Tasha “I thought you were dead Alpha Christian and you” he points at Tasha “How are you still alive?”

Christian clears his throat, “It is a weird and wonderful thing being a hybrid”

Breydon looks confused “What is it Breydon, forgot that he is like me?”

“No, not at all my Queen, I am just surprised to see him standing here” he continues to give Tasha a look of annoyance and lust, he wanted her for himself

“You cannot harm her Breydon, do you understand?”

“Yes” he grumbles  “Rud

    “It’s suicide” I throw my hands up nearly smacking Christian in the jaw who barely moves out of the way in time “It is just a fucking ridiculous idea Tasha”Tasha looks down at her feet, avoiding any form of eye contact with me“She has a point Ash, Daryl is going to come for her because he knows she means something to you” Christian tries to reason with me but I don’t want to hear it.“There has to be another way, I am not letting a human go in unprotected, she will never survive”“What if I am not human, he won’t be expecting that” Tasha’s hazel eyes are wide but she speaks as if she is having a normal conversation with other humans.“Tasha, not this again, I can’t, I won’t, I do not want to change you”I push through them and leave the three of them with the other werewolves, I couldn’t make anyone like me and I did not want t

    “Lucian, this is a private meeting”Has Breydon not seen Marcos head?The guy rolls his eyes and moves to the open end of the table, throwing Marco’s head towards us, until it lands with a thud on the severed neck inches away from me, Marco’s eyes wide in fear.“Thought you might want this” Lucian walks away“STOP!” I call out to him, I needed to know what had happened to Marco.Lucian looks back over his shoulder a smirk on his face and carries on walking. What the fuck just happened, he somehow managed to ignore my order, the first person to have done that.Glancing at Marco’s face, I want to puke, as much as I had killed people, seeing just a head had my stomach doing backflips.It’s the humanity in youBut it was too late, I was running towards the bin and just about make it in time when Breydon appears next to me as I wipe my face “Would you l

    “Why would I, if I thought you were dead”He had a point and yes, as usual I had more questions but honestly I didn’t know if Lucian would give them to me.“But they never found my body”He looks away from me, his jaw rigid as he thinks of an answer when Christian slams his fist down, making us jump “You will speak”I had seen him angry but not like this, he was more than furious, his eyes had turned black and I knew none of us would be leaving the room without an answer from LucianHe shifts around in his seat “Okay, okay. I helped”It was not even remotely close to what I expected to hear “You helped kill our parents?”He wrinkles his brow, “No, I had nothing to do with that, I helped them get you”“Why, why would you do that? Is it because you wanted to rule? Because you can if you want”I did not want to be in charge, I did not

    Christian carries me back to my room, hurrying down the corridors and praying to the Moon Goddess that we were not seen as neither of us had any clothes but as he opens my bedroom door he almost drops me, inside were Calli and Tasha deep in conversation.Tasha looks away immediately, covering her eyes with her hands whilst Calli accuses us of not focussing on the current problem.“Can you at least give us a minute?” Christian glares at Calli and she turns her back on us as we pull some clothes from the wardrobe. I silently huff, why is it this kept happening, I just wanted to be happy and to be alone with my mate.The fresh mark on my neck was different to Daryl’s, it itched like crazy and when I run my fingers over it, the skin is raised, almost puckered.“Is it supposed to do this?” I mutter at Christian as we dress“Yes, it’s the venom in our fangs, the vampire side”Glancing in the mirror i

    What have I done, why did I agree to this “Please tell me she is okay?”Christian sighs “I cannot answer that Ash, you drank too much blood”I follow him as he carries her to my bed and carefully places her limp body down. She is whiter than I have ever seen, she almost looks like she is sleeping and Christian places his head to her chest and when he looks at me, he shakes his head.Dropping to my knees sobbing, I knew that I had made a massive mistake, I hadn’t listened to Christian and stopped when I should have, I had killed my friend. Why did I do it, I never wanted to in the first place and once again I was friendless and alone.“Ash listen”Christian pulls me to my feet and I try to wipe away my tears, listening to the silence but I heard it, Tasha’s beating heart was strong and steady. Racing to her side I throw myself on her, grateful that she was still with us“When will she wake

    “You have accepted him” he sneers at usDaryl’s dark hair hangs in wild curls, his beard had grown out and he looked a mess, like he hadn't slept in days, yet his dark eyes were full of hunger and still, I felt a connection to him. I didn’t understand, how could I still feel something for him after everything he had done to me, not only that we were never true mates, it had all been a lie.“How did you get in?” Christian and I stand side by side determined not to let him get past usHe laughs and Christians fingers wrap around my own, was he trying to stop me from attacking Daryl or stop himself“She asked you a question Daryl, how did you get in?”Again he laughs “It would seem that not everyone is on your side. I know you’re in heat too” he sniffs the air “You will always belong to me”“No. I will never be yours” A mixture of heat and anger was racing

    It was a long but very fruitful night, we made the most of our time alone, exploring each others bodies and minds, Christian felt bad about the branding and wished that he had found me sooner, the same with all my scars but he reassured me that even though they were bad, they were apart of me and made me who I am.In between sex we talked lots, about my concerns for Tasha, Christians worries about his pack and the loss of his land but I promised him that I would do everything in my power to get it back.Maybe I should have gone after Tasha, but this bond between Christian and I was important and now that I had marked him, I felt different, the connection between us was strong and like nothing I had felt with Daryl. The connection with Daryl it had all been one sided and forced and yet something inside of me still had some feelings for him.From the floor I could see the sun was coming up, Christian was fast asleep with his arm draped across my stomach, the room

    “Rudina, he knows now, he knows we are all working together and he will plan for it. We need to be smarter than this”“I have an idea” Christian grins at me “But we need to make sure Lucian is on our side”“No Alpha Christian, Lucian is probably the reason Daryl got in. I have said this before, Lucian works on his own terms”.“Exactly”It seemed like I had missed out on something, how was having Lucian on our side going to help. Christians voice comes into my head, cutting through my thoughts “We need to offer him something in return, his freedom!”I look at Christian in confusion and he smiles at me “Trust me Ash”I nod my head and turn back to Breydon, “Bring me Lucian”Breydon takes the vampires with him and they quickly leave, not wanting to be in the same room as the wolves for long. Leaving Christian and I and his selected wolves.

  • 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
