Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond His Distrust
[Hindrick’s POV]I wait as Utica continues to stare me down with those damned eyes that seem to see deep into the very depths of my soul. Something about them is so unnerving, but I refuse to break our stare down."Well?" I repeat in frustration. "Are you afraid that I’m going to bite?""Maybe," Utica responds, causing Andria to break into a fit of giggles. "Could you not encourage her?""Don’t take your frustration out on Andria," Elleric warns. "Don’t you think if you were less harsh, the girl would be more willing to oblige your request?"Less harsh? I wasn’t being harsh to begin with, now was I? This was my usual way of speaking."It’s fine," Utica finally says, beginning to come forward. "I’ll do as you say since I’m feeling thankful for your helping me."Nodding, I watch until she is standing right beside me. Only when she stops moving entirely do I reach out and grab her hand.Immediately, a wave of warmth and comfort crashed into me, pushing aside the darkness that was threate
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond The Broken Bond
[Anika’s POV]I stare into Mateo’s dark eyes and find that I don’t feel an ounce of love for him. Instead, all I can feel is a deep-rooted hatred that leaves me wanting to kill the man in front of me."Go on then," he taunts when I don’t move. "Are you really going to hesitate to attack?"‘Kill him,’ the voice growls. ‘He was the one that allowed Alton to kill you and your baby.’That was right. He allowed Alton to take our lives and then tried to play it off as if he was devastated. From the start, he was never the kind Mateo that I thought I knew.Letting out a snarl of rage, I let all the darkness that is growing within me erupt, slamming into Mateo and sending him stumbling backwards."So this was the power you were always capable of," he laughs. "You’re still too weak."Surging forward, he lets his own energy erupt. Dodging the first blow, I attack with my own.Together, we dance around the space, fighting blow for blow and trying to gain dominance over each other. However, it be
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond First Eruption
[Fallon’s POV]"Yeah."The words leave my lips before I am able to fully process what is happening. The marks were gone, as was the connection between Mateo and Anika. Was this really happening, or were we counting our chickens before they hatched?"Really?"The hope in Fineon’s voice makes me want to believe that this is true, but I still can’t quite bring myself to believe it."I think so."In my mind, I can feel Anika’s warring emotions. Gone was her helpless devotion to Mateo, and in its place was a cold determination. She was different; that was one thing that was certain, but just how different was still to be discovered.‘Are you okay?’ I push, unable to hide my worry for her. ‘You don’t have to try to play strong with me.’‘Better than okay,’ Anika responds simply. ‘I feel free for the first time in so many centuries.’Despite her hopeful response, I still feel that coldness. It reminds me of the darkness I felt earlier on—was all of that coming from her? If so, did this mean
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond A Fight With Himself
[Hindrick’s POV]I stood alone, staring out at the horizon, taking in the pluming smoke from Mount Malum. The closer we grew to Fulgor Island, the more I saw just how bad things truly were becoming."It’s something, isn’t it?" Gavin announces, appearing beside me.Nodding, I continue to stare. I couldn’t explain why, but something felt off. I hoped it was just my imagination, but usually my hunches were correct."How long until we arrive at Ave Island?"Ave was the first of the islands we would be making our way to, as it was furthest from Fulgor. I could only hope that those who inhabited it would be willing to help. However, if they initially refused, I had ways of convincing them."We should reach by nightfall."Satisfied, I prepare to respond but stop as a low rumbling sound reaches my ears.Tensing, I watch as a large plume of smoke bursts from Mount Malum, followed by a wall of fire.Cursing, I watch as the smoke begins to spread all around Fulgor and make its way toward our des
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond A Curse
[Hindrick’s POV]Ah, this feeling. It was the same thing I felt every time the darkness wanted to take over. I felt this dark sense of hopelessness and unease, but I couldn’t let it take me. If I were to allow that, then I wouldn’t be able to see her smile again, would I?Closing my eyes, I let the world around me that was filled with chaos and death disappear while a warm world began to appear."This is why," I breathe as Fallon slowly appears before me. "This is why I can’t let it win."Feeling my body begin to fill with warmth, I watch as Fallon’s eyes light up and a large smile begins to spread across her face."Hindrick," she calls, holding out a hand to me. "Are you coming?"As she speaks, I turn my attention to the distance where she is heading. Standing there waiting for me is everyone that I have learned to hold near and dear, even if I never dared to say so."Weak."The single world threatens to shatter the world that I am slowly trying to create around me so I don’t get suc
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond A Sudden Gesture
"Ugh.""Uncle Ramone?"Frowning, I watched as Uncle Ramone’s whole body convulsed from a shiver. Was he cold from the sea breeze? If he was, why was he wearing practically nothing?Oh right.After deciding on leaving immediately, dad insisted that we get help from some of Donald’s workers. Initially, I thought he meant men, but in the end, we found a bunch of beautiful women clad in red kimonos equipped with various weapons waiting for us at the dock.Of course, with Uncle Ramone being the womanizer that he was, he was trying to show off by wearing practically nothing."Regretting your choice of clothes?" I ask as Uncle Ramone frowns ever so slightly. "If you’re cold, why don’t you…""No," he responds before I can finish my sentence. "I just got an odd feeling here…" As he speaks, he points to his chest. "Like something foreign was... Dammit, I don’t even know how to explain it.""Don’t tell me you’ve finally fallen in love," Fineon quips from his place beside me. "It’s about time.""
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond A Possessed Crew
[Fallon’s POV]I’m unable to speak as I continue to watch Fineon as he slowly opens the box to reveal a ring with a golden band with a single blue and yellow stone sitting in the middle of it."That’s," I gasp, my eyes growing wide. "You…""Still have it?" Fineon offers, smiling. "So you recognize this stone?"Of course, I recognized the stone since I was the one who gave it to him. It was this stone that first showed me our future. When I found it in the pond by Fire Rose, I found it interesting, so I decided to take it back with me. Little did I know that the minute I touched it, images of an older version of myself and Fineon would start to bombard my brain.Honestly, as far as I could remember, it was my very first vision, which made it that much more special, which is why I ended up giving the stone to the one I was meant to be with."Is it that shocking?" Fineon asks quietly as I continue to remain silent. "I didn’t mean to startle you so much.""No," I say, shaking my head. "It
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond Overboard
[Fineon’s POV] My mind races as the sound of moans and groans becomes damn near deafening. In front of me, I can feel Fallon’s body beginning to shake from the effort it is taking to keep the door between us and our current enemy closed. She wasn’t going to be able to hold on much longer, we needed to do something quick. "I’m going to create a distraction." At my words, I hear a gasp escape Fallon as her eyes, which are full of disbelief, come to rest on me. "Say that again." "I said," I begin, bracing myself for whatever reaction will escape her. "I’m going to create a distraction so that you and Ramone can get the hell out of here. No matter what happens, both of you need to keep moving and not look back." "You’re full of shit!" Fallon growls, clearly not okay with what I am saying. "Do you really think we would allow you to do something so stupid?" "I have to agree with her," Ramone adds, joining our conversation. "I understand wanting to play the gallant hero to show off in

Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond BONUS CHAPTER 3: Whatever She Needs
[Idris’ POV] "Are you sure you’re going back?" Mom’s eyes begin to fill with tears as she waits for a response. I don’t know exactly what she expects me to say. "Yes, I am. It’s been a month since Mateo and his underlings were killed, and the academy is finally reopening. As a student, I am required to go back." She knew that I still had a year left before I graduated. I couldn’t just never go back, no matter what had happened since the school shut down. "But…" "Don’t give him a hard time," Dad warns, cutting her off while wrapping a comforting arm around her. "The academy is one of the safest places on the continent, and the threat is gone. I’m sure the next year will simply fly by." "That’s right," I add, taking advantage of dad’s opening for me to leave. "I promise to keep in touch, and before you know it, I’ll be back to irritate the hell out of you." "You heard him," Dad beams, squeezing her closer. "Now, you should allow him to head out; otherwise, he won’t make it there
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond BONUS CHAPTER 2: She's My Mate
[Hindrick’s POV]"Welcome back!"Uncle Elleric doesn’t wait before he pulls me into a hug, crushing me against him and making me extremely uncomfortable.Growling, I work to break free, and once I manage to achieve my goal, I take a few steps back."Ever the stoic," he chuckles, taking me in. "Can’t you drop the act just for a day? You’ve been gone for a month, and you didn’t even bother to send word.""Because I was busy cleaning up the mess that was left behind," I point out. "Anyway, I didn’t come here for a heartfelt family reunion."At my words, Uncle Elleric’s face grows serious, and I get the feeling that he is expecting me to deliver a killing blow."Don’t worry," I sigh before his head can come up with some ridiculous scenarios, "it isn’t anything like that. I was actually asked a favor by an idiot.""Fineon?" Uncle Elleric asks, knowing perfectly well who I would be referring to. I didn’t know if I was that obvious or if he also saw Fineon as a fool. "Or is it Chance?"I bit
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond BONUS CHAPTER 1: Part Ways
[Fallon’s POV]A month passed in a blur before things were finally beginning to become normal once again. With things being so hectic, I didn’t get to see much of Fineon since he seemed to always be busy, but this time when we met, I wasn’t going to let him go until he told me what it was that he was up to.I manage to find Fineon heading out of dad's office with a look of frustration on his face."What’s wrong?" I ask, startling him."F-Fallon!" he gasps, taking me in. "Why are you...""Here?" I offer for him, moving forward. "Because if I wasn't, you would find some way to evade me like you have been doing for the past month."At my words, his expression shifts from shock to guilt. So he was intentionally avoiding me, which is interesting."Anyway, I was hoping you’d come somewhere with me today," I continue, wrapping my arms around his and squeezing. "Saying no is not an option.""But…""No buts!" I snap. "Come on."Giving a tug, I begin to move, dragging Fineon until we arrive at
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond Epilogue: When A Life Ends Another Begins
[Fineon’s POV]Returning home was a bittersweet thing, given the circumstances we were returning under. Whether it should have been a time of celebration, it was instead a moment of saying welcome back and saying goodbye.As we made landfall and began to unload, Fallon rushed off to see her parents and allowed herself to get lost in their embrace.Deciding that the moment should be strictly for family, I stay back as the tears begin to fall."You want to help us with this?" Ramone asks, coming up behind me. "He’s a bit heavy."Nodding, I turn and follow him back onto the boat to collect Cyrus’ body, allowing Fallon and her parents to be alone with each other.Inside the cabin, I can feel the chill of death pressing against my skin, and it makes the fact that Cyrus and Gavin are gone that much more real. Now all that was left to do to say goodbye was give them the proper send-off that they deserved.Sighing, I move forward and help Ramone collect Cyrus first so that his parents could s
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond Return Home
[Fallon’s POV]I don’t know how long I stayed in place, staring at the slowly disappearing door that Cyrus took to his final resting place. It was only when Titiana gently touched my shoulder that I finally snapped out of my daze."You need to get back now," she murmurs, giving me a smile filled with sympathy and sorrow. "Although your brother is no longer on earth, there are still many waiting on you.""Right," I sigh, getting to my feet. "I’m sure Fineon and Hindrick are at their wits end.""When you go back, you should really think about yourself more," Titiana chuckles."What do you mean?""You’ve worked so hard to gain everyone’s approval that you have lost yourself," she explains, touching my cheek."That’s what being a leader means," I counter. "I can’t think of myself. I can only think of my pack.""That’s not true," Titiana says, shaking her head. "You must also think of yourself, otherwise, you’ll end up regretting it one day. Now, go back to them."Before I can respond, I’m
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond His Request
[Fallon’s POV]"You had something you needed to speak with me about?" I ask hesitantly as Titiana examines me.After all the bombs that had been dropped on me earlier on, I wasn’t quite sure I was ready for another, but since this was the goddess’ request, there was no way that I could deny her."Not so much me," she responds, giving me a sad look.My stomach starts to roll as a bad feeling begins to creep up in me. Why was she looking at me like that, and why did it make my heart hurt?"Who is it?" I ask quietly, realizing that whoever it was must be someone close to me, and if they were here instead of on earth, then that meant that they were dead."It’s me."The world comes crashing down around me as I turn and find Cyrus making his way toward me.No, this couldn’t be real; there was no way it could. Was he like me, on the edge of life and death? If so, that meant he could be saved. Why was he here, and why did it feel like whatever was going to be said was goodbye?"Cy-cyrus," I w
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond To Make A Choice
[Anika’s POV]I continue to stare down at the lava where Mateo disappeared while Fineon and Hindrick remain silent, allowing me the space to process my emotions.Mateo was gone, for real this time. He would never come back to this world in this lifetime, and I wasn’t even sure if we would be able to find each other when we reincarnated like we promised. So that meant this was it, right?That thought alone left an immense loneliness in me that I thought I would never have to feel again. However, I had to admit, the second time around was so much more painful."Sorry to disturb," Fineon murmurs after a bit more time passes. "But how will we be sure that doing what Mateo said really did the trick?""I don’t know," I admitted, frowning."You don’t think that this was another trick of his, do you?" Hindrick growls. "What if...""He wasn’t lying," I say, cutting him off. "The one that was there in the end was Mateo, not Parker.""I understand that, but nothing seems to have happened," Hindr
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond His Gift
[Anika’s POV]I wait as Fineon and Hindrick examine me as if trying to determine if they could convince me to stay. It is only when Mount Malum lets out another ominous roar that they seem to concede and begin to move again."Stay close," Hindrick orders when I scramble to catch up. "If you cause anything to happen to Fallon’s body, I’ll destroy you, understood?""Of course," I respond, not taking offense to his threat. "I know my limits.""Then let’s go," Hindrick sighs, though he still doesn’t seem fully convinced.Nodding, I begin to follow, staying close behind the two men who insisted on keeping me safe from any possible rockslides or attacks that may happen."It’ll take at least a day to get to the top of this," Hindrick mutters when we reach Mount Malum’s side. "Do we have that much time?"Looking up, I take in the lava that bubbles up and then explodes and the smoke that is quickly surrounding the mountain, blocking the rest of the world from view."I don’t know," I admit. "Bu
Alpha Fallon And The Broken Bond To Say Goodbye
[Anika’s POV]Pain rips through my chest with every inch the anima sword makes through Mateo’s body. Even if I managed to destroy the mark he left on me, our bond was still there, and I wasn’t too surprised I was feeling what he was. This was how strong our bond had always been, and in a way, I was happy he wasn't alone."An…ika…" Mateo rasps, his eyes finding mine. "Why?""Because this must be done."Everything in me screamed to stop, to help him, and to save him from the painful death that he was currently experiencing, but I knew this had to be done. And I was the one who had to do it. Not Hindrick, not Fallon, but me. I had to end this once and for all.Closing my eyes, I allow all the beautiful memories that we shared to begin to flash across my mind. This would be the last time I allowed them to overtake me. Once this was finished, I would fully let go. I had to; there was no holding onto something that would never be again.SIghing, I let my tears flow as Mateo’s love-filled ey
