Chapter 25โWhoโs in the basement?โ I regrettably stood from the bed, wanting nothing more but to curl up within the sheets and pick up where I left off an hour ago.โWhen we got word that you might be in your old pack, I had Dean do some digging. I wanted to know if anyone that knew you back then was still there, so if we had trouble finding you perhaps they could help.โ He paused, hesitating before he continued. โWe only found one person still living there that knew you back then, outside of the Alpha, but he has been M.I.A for weeks now.โMy stomach dropped. โWes.โ I whispered. โYes. It was last minute, but I organised a secondary mission with a few of my warriors while I was out looking for youโฆโ โWes is in the fucking basement, isnโt he?โ โYeah.โ I closed my eyes, taking deep breaths as I tried to quiet my chaotic mind. If I had thought the bed was looking good before, it was looking even better right about now. โThis isnโt something you need to deal with tonight, Maia. Heโ

Julius practically purred as I ran my long nails through his thick hair, my legs still hugged around him and my body molded perfectly to his. There were no words that could come close to describe the feeling of being wrapped in his arms, our mate bond complete. It almost felt as though the terrors of my past existed in a different universe, that my real life was meant to start now. Almost, being the key word there.Julius sighed heavily as he nuzzled into my neck, a spark of anxiety flaring through the mate bond. โWe have to get up, donโt we?โ I groaned, as the bubble that encompassed us began to pop. โDean just mind-linked. If I donโt answer he may take it upon himself to come find me.โ Julius murmured, his hot breath tickling my skin and re-igniting the flame in my core. He pulled back and took a deep breath in, his nostrils flaring slightly as he took in my scent, which I had no doubt gave away my desires. โMaiaโฆ I have no problem taking you again, regardless if Dean walks in or

Julius POVโAre you sure youโre ready for this?โ I asked Maia as we approached the door to the basement. Confidence and resolution rang through our bond, but I didnโt want to make any assumptions, not when only a day ago she was almost completely catatonic. She still hadnโt told me exactly what happened, and whilst I was curious to know what Adrian had done, so I could repay the favour, there was no chance I would push her. I knew she would tell me in her own time. โIโm sure.โ Was all she said, her voice filled with determination and her back straight as we came to a stop at the thick steel door. I raked my eyes over her strong body, knowing by the way the corners of her lips twitched that she could feel my admiration through the bond. โOkay, letโs do this.โ We stepped through the door and made our descent into the basement, the souls of our shoes whispering against the polished concrete. I felt her bristle at the coldness, and I inwardly cringed as her anxiety crept through the bo

Maia POVMy head was reeling with the multiple bombs Wes had dropped on us as I followed Julius up the winding staircase and back into the main area of the pack house, Dean close on my heels. I could barely hear them as they spoke together, mentioning something about the Alpha of the Blue Moon pack, too wrapped up in my own thoughts and feelings to pay any attention to the real world around me. I was surprised at my reaction to seeing Wes for the first time since escaping his trailer (the first time). Anger lashed out of me as I had stood before him, watching as he trembled at the back of his cell, his dull grey eyes holding the fear that I had expected myself to feel. โMaia, are you coming?โ Juliusโ light touch on my arm snapped me out of my thoughts, his eyes glowing with concern as they searched my own. โUm, yes, sorry, where are we going?โ My words tripped over themselves as I tried to get back up to speed with what Julius and Dean had been talking about. โBack to my office.โ

My best friend climbed onto the stage, ignoring the steps she could have easily taken, and wrapped me tightly in her arms before pulling away, he small hands still gripping my shoulders as she eyed me curiously. Her face lit up when her eyes fell on the now healed mark that sat embedded within my creamy skin. โOh my god, congratulations!โ She squealed, earning us a side-eye from Julius and a muffled laugh from Dean as they stood to the side, far enough away that we had some privacy but close enough to hear just about everything we would say. Especially with how easily Maeveโs voice carried. โThank youโ I replied, an embarrassed smile forming on my face and the beginning of a blush rising in my chest. โSo you two have, ya know, sealed the deal?โ Maeve made some enthusiastic hand gestures, making me choke on my own saliva as the blush crept up to my cheeks. โYes, Maeve, I donโt think the mark would have healed if we hadnโt doneโฆthat.โโI know.โ She grinned, the sneaky bitch. โIโm gl

It seemed our demonstration had itโs intended affect. Pack members gritted their teeth and fought harder than I had ever seen them fight before, a newfound sense of determination filling the atmosphere as wolf after wolf went to battle. Julius, Dean and I wandered through the groups, offering words of advice and encouragement, which in all truth wasnโt needed too often. These people had already protected their town once, and they were showing me exactly how they planned on doing it again. The session went longer than usual, clocking up to almost three hours by the time everyone was ready to call it a day. And yet, there was still no sign of Maeve or Jake. โDid you notice when Maeve left?โ I asked Dean, the loud click of a lock echoing around us as the key turned in his hand. His brow furrowed at my question, igniting a small flame of anxiety deep in my core. โI did actually, her and Jake left at the start of your fight with Jules, kind of in a rush now that I think of it.

My head spun as Adrian all but vanished, exiting the room at a speed that left him as nothing more than a blur of flesh and fabric. But I wasnโt focused on him, I was focused on my best friend, her eyes wide and lips trembling as silent tears fell down her cheeks. โMaeveโฆโ I whispered, her distraught gaze meeting my own, a look crossing her face as though she was just remembering that we were still in the room with her. All at once she crumpled, sinking to the floor before I could catch her, as though all her strength had simply vanished from her body. โHey, hey, Iโm here, weโre all here.โ I hushed as I cradled her head against my chest, holding back my own tears as her violent sobs threatened to break my heart in two. From what I had heard, a rejection from your mate was agonizingly painful, knowing your soul will never be whole, knowing you may never experience that sense of fulfillment that comes with true happiness.

โSo, are you going to turn into some apocalyptic, wolf-humanoid, or what?โ I jabbed Dean in the ribs, replacing his smirk with a wince as I returned to my spot against the kitchen island bench. โKnowing your sick mind, youโd be turned on by such a thing.โ A low growl emanates from Juliusโ chest as he wraps a possessive hand around my waist. I bite back a sigh as the pad of his thumb traces soft circles against my bare skin, the problem at hand momentarily forgotten as sparks cloud my train of thought. โFocus.โ He murmurs through the mind-link, the rich sound of his voice only stoking the flame in my core. โIโm not sure, Luna, I prefer my she-wolves on four pawsโฆ a wolf standing up like a person freaks me out.โ Dean pokes a finger down his mouth as he pretends to gag, although the humour in his eyes tells me heโs still teasing. A response is on the tip of my tongue before Iโm thrown into the backseat of my mind, the voice leaving my lips not my own. โThatโs okay, Beta, only speci

Alpha Juliusย ย ย Chapter 35
The rest of the day passed by in a blur, as if time itself was eager to find out whether we would be victorious, or if we would all suffer a premature departure from this world. After the meeting with the warriors I had rushed over to Maeveโs house. Her parents greeted me with tired, weary eyes and somber smiles as they apologised for their absence at the meeting. โHowโs she doing? Can I see her?โ I had asked desperately, impatient to do whatever I could to be there for Maeve. But her parents exchanged tired glances and shook their heads in unison. โIโm sorry Luna, sheโs just fallen asleep after being up all night crying. If you donโt mind, weโd like to let her rest.โ And by the looks of it, they needed rest themselves. โI understand, please, tell her I was here and that Iโm thinking of her.โ They both gave me smiles that didnโt reach their eyes before the front door started to close. I shot out my hand, my palm hitting the wood with a slap that made them both wince. โWait, you ne

We laid sweaty and trembling in each others arms for a few more moments, before Julius broke the comfortable silence. โWe need to get ready.โ He murmured into my hair, his fingers tracing soothing circles on the skin of my lower back. I felt my eyelids flutter, suddenly wishing I had the luxury of time so I could fall asleep in his arms. My only response was a groan as I planted my palms firmly on his chest and pushed myself up, my face twisting into a scowl.He chuckled at the sight. โThank you, my fierce little wolf, I needed that.โ He planted a chaste kiss on my nose before looping my arms around his neck and standing himself up from the chair. My legs instinctually wrapped around his torso. โWe both did.โ I sighed, resting my head in the crook of his neck, enjoying the rhythmic motion as he walked us into the shower. โThis plan has to work, Maia.โ โIt will.โ โIf I lose you again, I donโt-โ my stomach twists at the pain in his voice, and I look up to see nothing but pure desp

How do you tell your new pack, that not only are you a werewolf/Lycan hybrid, a species which no one even knew existed, but that youโre the reason theyโre homes and lives are currently in jeopardy? I didnโt fucking know, and neither did Julius. We spent the entire night in his office, drafting and re-drafting the speech that had the potential to send our pack into utter chaos. Even when we were done, I still wasnโt sure I was happy. Should I be reading from a piece of paper? Should I let Eve speak? Julius even put forward the idea that I show my lycan form at the speech, an idea which Eve immediately intercepted. Her exact words were โIโm not even sure youโre ready to see that, Mate, let alone the people of our pack.โ Her words were like ice trickling down my spine, reminding me that I hadnโt seen my lycan form yet either. We managed to get a handful of hours sleep in the early hours of the morning, although as the sun crept in through the gap in the curtain I really felt as thou
