There was a murmur of voices but I couldn’t move. I felt almost trapped in my body. I knew I was breathing, I knew I was sitting, and I knew there were people around me but I couldn’t do anything about it. What was going on? Why was I like this?
“We’ve literally tried everything!”
“Cold water, slapping him, even trying to bite his ear! Nothing!”
“Hold on boys, let Yvonne bring some of her mix.” That was my father. His voice was clearer than the others.
There was a moment of silence before I felt my chest pulled up into a sitting position.
“Careful, he might accidentally head butt one of you.” That was my mother.
I felt something brush against my nose and I took a breath. The scent slapped me in the face and I snapped my head up. Taking a deep breath, I looked around the room. My mother and father, Iggy, Scott, and Ricky were looking at me with worried looks on their faces.

I turned around and looked at all four of them. “What the hell just happened?” I yelled, my voice straining. “She ejected us?” Ricky looked at Marcus who was looking shocked at the forest. “Dad!” He blinked a few times and then looked at me. “She used earth magic.” “She’s not fey though. I thought you said she was human?” Iggy walked over to the front of the Jeep with us. “She isn’t fey. She’s human but I heard a rumor, I’m not sure if it’s true or not but…” He trailed off for a minute. “It’s said that she saved the fey queen from a disaster. The fey queen wanted to adopt her as a child of the fey. It’s more unheard of than the Alpha King giving her an Alpha soul.” “So she is an adopted child of the fey queen?” Ricky sounded shocked and confused. My father shook his head. “She declined the offer according to the rumors. However, the fey queen granted her the ability to tap into the earth, tap into magic.” Looking at me directly

I spent the day in the office at home. Catching up on paperwork that I had missed yesterday. Ricky had come by to drop off more and I just sighed, not even the strength to argue with him about the workload. Everything was taking twice as long as it normally did and I would glance at my phone every minute or so, seeing if Victor would call. The feeling of helplessness was not one I was accustomed to and it made me antsy. My foot tapped against the floor or my finger against the desk. “Dear?” I looked up at Helena, who had was leaning in the doorway of the office. “You should eat something for lunch.” Looking at the clock on my phone, I saw it was one-thirty already and nodded. “Did you want me to make something?” She smiled. “No, I picked up something from the store on my way back today. I have it set on the table.” Nodding, I put down the paper in my hand and stood up. I stretched, feeling the strain in my muscles. My body was involuntarily flexing th

I was breathing heavily. Scott had ushered the scouts out of the room before I exploded. My wolf was pacing just at the edge of my mind. Pushing me, egging me on. I started to pace the same way behind my desk, the chair had fallen on the floor and I just left. “Alpha.” Scott closed the door quietly behind him. “Alpha, you need to calm down.” He was looking at me through his own wolf eyes. I could see his neck turned and I realized that the room was filled with a storm of my Alpha presence. It thundered angrily. Scott was only one of two that would try to speak to me now. My father being the other, unaffected by my storm. Frowning, I paced more. Feeling my wolf pace next to me was comforting now. “Desmond.” I glared at him and growled. He flinched a little but held his ground in the room. “Desmond, reign it in.” The scouts told me that May had decided to not wait for the authorization. She decided to just leave on her own. No divorce, n

I jolted up. Looking around, I saw the worried faces of my father, mother, Scott and Derek. Putting a hand to my head, it sounded like a drum line banging around. It took a moment but I realized I was at my parents’ house, on their couch in the living room. I was trying to collect my thoughts. There was so much going on, jumbled emotions and I leaned over the edge of the couch. They were all watching me and I sighed. I was naked, covered in one of the quilts my mother had made. Looking down at my hands, I saw they were covered in red. Whose blood was this? I looked up at them, my hands starting to shake. “What…what is going on…” Scott looked away and turned, leaving the room. Derek also looked away. What the hell had happened? These two were with me when I tortured and killed countless people. They knew the type of person I was, and watching them turn from me made me even more worried. “What happened?” I let the edge in my voice leak through my question.

I could hear raised voices outside the room. It didn’t matter. Nothing mattered anymore. The pain was constant now. At first, I could deal with it. I could sleep and just wake up through the waves that would come. That was hours ago though. I couldn’t function now. My mother and father checked in on me every couple hours. At some point, I curled up in the corner of the room on the floor and stayed there through the majority of it. My back was against the wall and I buried my face in my knees in the dark room. What made it worse was that all this pain was also affecting my mate. My sweet human mate was writhing in this same pain. I could feel her through the bond. Her fear, her resignation, her sadness. I could feel her brush against me as well. I let her feel the regret, sadness, and longing I had for her. I didn’t want her to go through this too. I wanted to ease her pain even if it meant making my own worse. “Helena, for the last time, you cannot see him!”

***Olivia’s POV*** I watched it in slow motion. Ricky had broken free of Aamon’s Alpha presence and shifted, running toward us. Aamon had taken over completely. I saw it in his eyes and in the presence. There were a few moments I could feel Desmond as he tried to fight through the power of his wolf. He lost though. He had jumped, his jaws open as Ricky jumped from the side, trying to get between us. Desmond might have tried to stop but I knew Aamon wouldn’t. Marcus had talked about him the last few times we had spoken. The Demon Wolf as he was better known. Every few generations an Alpha would be born with him. Usually they became cruel and sadistic, Aamon eventually taking over fully. Hunters were well acquainted with the stories because when a new demon wolf was awakened, it usually meant that the elite hunters were sent to kill them before he could take over. Here I, an elite hunter, staring down the

To say I turned a few heads was an understatement. The moment I walked into the town, I think everyone stopped to stare. It was actually embarrassing. I knew this was what was going to happen but I didn’t think it would be as bad as the movies. When someone rides a bike past and runs into a pole because they were staring. That’s exactly what happened. You would think I would be used to it but I didn’t really stay in small towns like this for long periods of time. Big cities were used to eclectic groups of people and no one would give me a second glance. I walked across the street into the grassy park of the center square. Ducking into the marble gazebo, I reveled in the shade. The weather wasn’t hot but the two hour walk in the sun wasn’t exactly fun. Leaning against the gazebo railing, I looked out over the main city streets. The most attention I received had been from the pack members, not so much the fey or the tourists.

“F “Fucking shit. God fucking bullshit dumb ass…” I continued to curse as I pushed on the wrench that refused to give. Currently, I was under the house. I pulled up some of the rotted floor boards to get at the plumbing underneath the house. It took the entire previous day but I had cleaned out the water filter and pump on the side of the house. It was definitely where the green tint was coming from. The filter had been surprisingly undamaged and so I left it in there after cleaning it out. Now I just need to find where the hell the brown was coming from in the pipes. “Mother fucking dick…” I kicked the wrench with my heel. “Fucking move god damn it.” Kicking it again, I felt it budge every so slightly. Elated, I grabbed the wrench and pushed. It moved slowly, the creaking of the pipes filled the small space but finally it gave. “Holy mother above

Alpha Desmond Author Note: New Story!
Hello everyone! I know it's been a minute since I've updated on the things going on. I just wanted to update those who enjoyed this story in particular to a new story I am writing called The Rogue Kings. It's currently being updated and I know fans of Alpha Desmond will also enjoy that story. It's a stand alone werewolf book, that will actually be in two parts. However, it won't be separated into different stories but all one. I chose to mark it as a more mature story since the themes and the things that happen within the story will be strong emotionally. I really hope you guys will check it out. I think it is one of my bigger undertakings, just like Alpha Desmond and has been a labor of love that I've been working through for a while. For those wondering what is going on with my other story The King's Alpha. I promise you I am still working on that one as well. I hit a bit of a wall and ended up throwing a number of chapters out the window. As I was going through that, I've been hi
Alpha Desmond Epilogue
I heard whispering in the background, and I peeled my eyes open. Xander had his arms crossed over his chest, while Zain whispered angrily to Olivia. All these years she hadn’t changed. She stayed by my side as we got older, even picking up her duties as Luna before Xander and Zain took over. We decided to wait until they were seventeen to fully transfer the pack over to them. They decided to work in tandem, handling the pack together. I was proud of them. What they had accomplished over the years. The wolves they had become. “Don’t you dare speak that way to your mother.” My voice shook. My time was coming to an end. My father had passed away when he was ninety-two, my mother followed not long after. Olivia said it might be that because our bond was the one tethering her to this world, my life had been shortened. It didn’t matter to me, though. I had spent most of my days with my mate by my side and I wouldn’t trade that even for twenty or thirty more years. “Dad, please. You can’

The air in the house was electric. For the first time in over five years, the house seemed full and happy. Olivia and the kids decorated a tree in the corner, and she even started to use a bit of fey magic to decorate the house. Liam and I strung lights inside and outside of the house for Christmas at the behest of Olivia. She said that we have been lacking on our excitement for Christmas and was determined to change that. Xander and Zain were ecstatic to be a part of it.Olivia and I tag-teamed in the kitchen for Christmas Day. We were making so much food, considering the amount of people we were having. Everyone was also bringing something, but to feed an entire house filled with werewolves, vampires and even a few fey, we needed more than just the normal amount. We had sat down the night before and scheduled out when everything needed to be put in the oven. It was chaos, but I couldn’t stop smiling.Her touch as we would pass by each other doing chores or cooking. Her laughter fill

“Get under him. His strength will probably fail him as soon as I put it back.”I walked around Olivia and held Bucho under his right arm, Liam got his left. We braced for his weight to fall. She carefully closed her fingers over the flower before turning and placing her hand over his chest again. Her hand slowly slipped in and she turned her wrist before her hand came back out, now empty.As soon as her hand left his chest, I watched Olivia hold herself up against the counter. I felt the mate bond flicker for a moment, but before I could go to her, Bucho’s full weight fell on Liam and I. Liam grunted and I also groaned as we held him up.“What the hell does he eat?” Liam coughed out.“Take him to the couch, boys. Let him rest for a second.” Olivia chuckled. “His soul literally had an out-of-body experience.”Nat snorted. “Mom, what the hell?”With Liam, we carried Bucho over to the couch and placed him down gently. Stacy came over and sat next to me, holding his hand as he stirred. I

My anxiety was through the roof. Multiple times Liam had a hand on my shoulder to calm me down. Aamon was pacing. He had been relatively quiet this whole time. Now though, he nearly pushed forward, trying to force me to go back.“Dad, slow down.”I looked at the speedometer and thanked the goddess silently that we weren’t in the city. I would have been pulled over so quick that I might have ended up with a misdemeanor with reckless endangerment. Liam chuckled as I slowed down.“Sorry.” I mumbled.“Nat would have linked if there was an issue, Dad. Don’t worry.”I nodded absentmindedly. Looking at the clock, I saw we had left later than I wanted and took a little longer than anticipated. There was paperwork I wanted to grab from the pack house so I wouldn’t need to leave again until after Christmas. If anything, I could have Scott take the paperwork back with him on Christmas.Pulling into the dirt path, I pulled up and smiled. The boys were running around in the clearing, trying to tak

I leaned against the counter, sipping tea Olivia had made. She didn’t seem to need to sleep but was happy to sit on the couch as I fell asleep with my head on her lap. Her hands brushed through my hair as she hummed different songs that lulled me to sleep. My alarm went off at 5 a.m. to get ready for the day, but I didn’t know what I was going to do now. I was worried about letting her go, wanting to take Olivia with me, but if her guess was correct, she might not be able to stray too far from the ley line. She was standing in the kitchen with me, smiling at me as she sipped some tea as well. Changing out of her dress from last night, she was now wearing jeans and a band shirt. Both were hilariously big on her, but she looked much more normal.“What if only I can see you? Everyone will think I have gone crazy.”Olivia chuckled and lifted the mug to her lips. “I think it might be too late for that.”I scoffed. “I’m serious, Olivia.”“I think you worry too much.”Shaking my head, I lif

“Dad! I’m going to head to bed. The munchkins are already down.”I looked up from my book on the couch and smiled at Nat. She kissed my cheek and headed up to her room. Liam plopped down next to me, putting his feet up on the coffee table.“It’s nice to be back home. If I have one more person call me Dr. Wright, I think I am going to quit school.”I chuckled. “You’re on the road to becoming a doctor. You should get used to it.”He shook his head. “It’s nearly as bad as Alpha.” His face scrunched up and I shook my head.“You are welcome to become Alpha anytime, son. Those boys will be the death of me already. Being Alpha at this point is just another nail in the coffin.”Liam glared at me. “Don’t say that. You still can beat everyone’s ass. Even the most advanced newbies can’t even come close.”“Have you tried wrangling those two alone? I think they would take out the whole training group if I let them loose after a single glass of juice.”Liam threw his head back and laughed. He had g

The grey wolf stopped for a moment; his head cocked to the side. My heart started to pound in my chest.“Nasir, that can’t be…”His head cocked to the other side this time, making his ears flop. The boys laughed and Xander, who was in front, scratched behind his ears. The wolf continued his circular path around the clearing.'Dad, tell me you are free right now.''I’m at the store, what’s up? Something wrong?'I bit my lip, unable to wrap my head around what was happening in front of me. If Ricky or Nasir was still alive, if he was still here, then Olivia would be as well. He was her pact. If she died so did he. But if this was him then it meant she was alive, too.'I need you to come over right now. Please. Hurry.''Heading out now.'I shut off the mind link and just sat, watching. After about ten minutes, the wolf laid down and flopped over. The boys laughed as they tumbled off his back and started to play around him. At first, they ran around in circles but when that got old, they

“Dad! Dad!”I looked up from my desk to see Xander and Zain barreling into my office. They still had their backpacks and shoes on. Pushing back in my chair, I turned to allow the both of them to jump into my lap. Smiling, I helped them sit on my lap and ruffled both their heads.“Did you boys have a good day at school?”They both nodded furiously.“We made drawings! Look! Look!” Zain pulled at his backpack when Xander shook his head.“No! Mine is better!”“Nuh uh! Mine is better!” Zain whined at his brother.Sighing, I shook my head. “How about we just see these drawings?”“Kay!” They chimed together and I chuckled.They were twins even if they weren’t identical. I was thankful that they weren’t. They were mischievous enough as it was. Xander was a carbon copy of me when I was younger. If you put my four year old photo next to him now, you would think we time traveled. Zain, though, looked so much like Olivia. Her bright eyes and hair. Even his mannerisms sometimes shocked me, seeing
