2024-10-29 19:42:56My eyes watched Olivia’s face. Her eyes were focused and she was biting her lip. It took a lot of effort not to smile. We were in a familiar position. She was sitting at the top of the porch, while I was a few steps below her, my head resting in her lap. Slowly and carefully, she was shaving the beard that had overgrown in the past few months. Her hands softly turned my head to the side and I closed my eyes, feeling the scrape of the blade against my skin.
It was so quiet. For the first time in weeks, the house was just her, I and Nasir who was laying down at the far end of the porch. I hadn’t seen Ricky since the outburst at the dinner table. Olivia and Nasir also seemed more distant than usual. I was worried but every time I brought it up, she would ignore me or brush off the question. Now it was so bad, they were barely in the same room together.
“Almost done. Just some final touch-ups.”
I made a noise, acknowledging her but not moving

Alpha Desmond Author Note: Thank you for your Patience
Hello Everyone!!First, let me say I appreciate your patience with me! I 100% am fully committed to Alpha Desmond and I intend on finishing it in the next couple weeks here for you all! Let me apologize, for the late uploads and the radio silence.I had actually finished Alpha Desmond near the last time I updated. But when I took my hands off the keyboard I realized, I hated it. It didn’t feel true to the characters. It felt forced and rushed and just wrong to me as both a writer and a reader. These characters are near and dear to my heart and I want it to be genuine. I was frustrated and just burnt out.Mix that with my work, being unable to do anything for two weeks because I had stitches in my hand. It just continued to push me away from the story. I realized once I healed and was able to remedy my day job that I needed a pallet cleanser before I jumped back in, literally throwing 10-15 chapters in the trash that I had finished on Alpha Desmond. I wrote a Billionaire/CEO love story

***Olivia’s POV*** I watched Desmond leave and I pulled my shirt back down. My heart felt raw, the emotions that he spilled into me were hard to handle. I knew he had been holding things back since I came back, trying to be my strength but I didn’t realize how much. I felt bad that he had been trying so hard to be strong and then coming undone when he listened to Ricky. Anger bubbled up in me. We had the serious conversation at the dinning table before everyone had arrived. We didn’t even realize we were yelling at each other for that long. Not until he stormed off. Nasir was even mad at me. It hurt, not having him close anymore but I wasn’t going to bend. I told Desmond alright and I wanted him by my side for a long as I could have him there but I wouldn’t risk him getting killed. Turning, I opened up one of the kitchen drawers. Tatiana had left two of the plaques that matched the other ones on the kids doors. It was left blank for when we decided on the boys names. Taking them wi

My heart hammered in my chest. Chloe, Yvonne, and Stacy flittered around me. They were adjusting my hair and dress. We had decided that we would have the ceremony outside at the gazebo. Because the Luna ceremony dictated it to be on a full moon at night, lights had been strung throughout the entire town center which flowed through the window of the pack house. “Ladies, it’s nearly time.” Iggy called from the front door. Nat walked up to me and took my hands in hers. “Mom, don’t be nervous. This is just semantics. You already are loved and accepted by all of us.”I looked up, willing myself not to cry. “Thank you. It means the world to me.”“Where is my sister?” Ricky called out from the entryway.I smiled. He was dressed in a black suit with a black bow tie. His hair was tied up in a topknot. Freezing in the entry, our eyes met and he immediately started to tear up. “Fuck, Ricky, don’t you dare.”“You look…”Putting up a finger, I raised my head and took a deep breath. “Don’t.”“H

“I don’t invite traitors into my territory, James.” Desmond growled.“Traitors? When you have a Luna ceremony with a human? Surrounded by a bunch of filthy fey and coven bitches?”I growled this time at him. “You must have death wish coming here.”“What? You kill me in cold blood like you killed my mate?” He snarled and Desmond pulled me back further.“Actually, that was me. I threw a spear through her heart and for good measure I ripped her head off.” Alpha Bucho growled, stepping down a step from where he was standing.Alpha James cackled. “You did me a favor! Do you know what its like having a vampire mate? I am finally free. Free of my mate, free of my pack, free to do whatever the fuck I want.”“What do you mean free of your pack?” My voice cracked.“Oh dearie, I killed them all. I sent all my warriors to the Alpha King and then I killed every single one of my pack members. No one left. No one questioning my motives or buzzing in my ear that maybe I was wrong.” He growled, his ey

Victor was sitting at the kitchen island, talking to Liam about the first stages of being a Vampire. Nasir was laying on my feet as I faced the stove, juggling three different pans of food for bunch. Nat was next to me, mixing up a batch of tea that I taught her how to make. She had an affinity for earth magic, even with being a werewolf. It surprised me at first but now I had her doing small mixtures here and there to help ease back some of the magic I used.“I don’t know how you just left Dad at the pack house all night. I mean, it’s your guys wedding night!” Nat was laughing as she put the lid on the tea and placed it on the counter behind us.“I would be surprised if he even woke up last night. He’ll be pissed in the morning but he should have been watching how much he was drinking.” I stacked up another four pancakes on a plate before sliding them in the oven. “Do you mind pouring some orange juice and make some water with lemon? We can start placing them on the table.”Nat nodde
Alpha Desmond Chapter 88
“Olivia, stop shutting me out!” Desmond slammed the document he was reading on the table.He looked at me, frowning, his glasses sitting on his nose. I had jumped slightly at his outburst. Nasir stood up and growled for a moment. Since the doctor’s visit two days ago, neither of them had left my side. Nasir even took up sleeping on the floor next to my side of the bed and during the day Ricky would be hovering.My eyes widened. “I’m not sure what you…”“How are we supposed to work as a unit when you are sitting here with your walls up? We leave tomorrow. I know nothing about what the hell you’re doing once we get there.”I took a deep breath. “Because I don’t really know myself, Desmond. I’m not a public speaker. I’m not some revolutionary who knows what to say and when to say it. I just want to stop both sides from killing one another.”Desmond rubbed his temples. “Olivia, I need more than just that.”“Desmond…”“I need more, Olivia! I can’t work with this!”I winced and Nasir growle

“Both of you have access to my account. If you need anything, use my card.” I cupped both Liam and Nat’s cheeks.“We know, Mom.”“Be safe. Don’t get into any trouble. Liam, you’re in charge. I know you can do it. You’ve stepped up before and I don’t have any doubt you will take care of everything.”Liam sighed. “Mom, you just be safe. Come home safely.”I nodded and smiled, kissing both of them on the forehead. “We will be back in a few days.”“Olivia, we need to go!” Ricky called out and I sighed.Walking down the stairs, I joined Ricky who had a backpack on and Desmond who was also wearing a bag. He refused to look at me. I had fallen asleep before he came to bed and when I work up in the morning, he wasn’t there. All this morning, he helped pack but refused to look at me or talk to me. We headed into the clearing and I took hold of Ricky.“Sorry, I have to touch you.”Desmond growled but didn’t say anything as I took his hand and swirled the magic around us. Walking forward, we ste

“My aren’t they adorable. I’m sorry we missed their birth. I’m sure these idiots were of no help.” Selene brushed the cheek of Xander.“Not too bad actually. Not again though. Next time, it’s in a hospital with drugs.” I smiled at Gaia who leaned over and brushed Zain’s head.“We are great-grandparents dear. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so blessed.” Gaia smiled at Selene and they nodded.Looking at Demond, he beamed as he held Xander in his arms, allowing Selene to see him and touch him. I looked down at Zain, his little hand now holding Gaia’s finger. My mind tried to comprehend for a moment what was happening and I struggled with it. I felt the lips of the Earth Mother touch my temple and I closed my eyes.“You did well, granddaughter. You brought these two beautiful children into the world. Safe and sound.”Tears fell as I felt Selene do the same. She brushed her hand through my hair. “You did so well. Though, I’m not quite sure how you ended up here.”“We got stuck.” Ricky smiled,

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
