I was on edge the moment David and Mikali left my office. “She’ll be fine. David will conceal her scent. You really did think this through when you choose who to guard her,” John nodded.
“I do that on occasion. And this is the safety of my mate we’re talking about,” I snorted. I won’t take chances with Aurelia’s safety.
David was chosen not only because he has authority in the human world as a state trooper. Plus, he is mated, so I don’t have to worry about him hitting on my mate.
Mainly he was selected for the special gift his family has. They can conceal their scent and the scent of another. So hiding her scent will be an added security.
The last thing I need is anyone sniffing her out. She could get mistaken for a rogue even if she doesn’t smell as putrid as one. Or someone from a neighboring pack tries to force her to join their pack.
It was rare for a werewolf to be born without a pack and not be a rogue. I need to get Siegfried han

I can’t believe I gave my dad a heart attack! ‘Alex said he was fine, but your mom insisted on an ambulance.’ Theia tried to sound encouraging. ‘Not helping. I still gave my dad a heart attack.’ I frowned. “Don’t blame yourself,” Alex nudged me as we reached the fence. “How can’t I? I tell you guys what I am, and look what happens. You hid from me, afraid of me. I can still smell your fear. Mom fainted. And dad…” My words trailed off as I saw my dad being put into an ambulance by two EMTs. “DAD!” I shouted and rushed across the yard to the ambulance. Mom still looked pale, with her arms wrapped around herself like she was cold. She wouldn’t even look at me. “What is his status?” David questioned, taking his badge from his back pocket. “Didn’t realize any law enforcement was on the scene. He’s stable. Probably just a mild attack. We’re taking him to Alliance Medical just to be sure,” one of the EMTs answered with little hesitation after seeing Da
‘ALPHA!!’ a voice shouted, waking me from my sleep. I groaned, squinting trying to determine what was on my face. “Ugh, Hana…” I groaned, pushing her little foot off my face. I love this girl, but she always seems to end up upside down in her sleep. ‘ALPHA!!’ the voice shouted again. It took me a moment to realize the voice was that of Mikali. ‘What’s happened?’ I growled, sitting up. ‘I am sorry I have failed you.’ Mikali whimpered. ‘WHAT HAS HAPPENED!?’ I demanded. I swear if something has happened to Aurelia. If someone’s hurt her. If she’s dead. I will lose my mind. Jericho and I will go feral and kill everything and everyone we see. ‘She’s missing.’ Mikali started. ‘What do you mean she’s missing?’ I questioned, getting out of bed. ‘Last night was very intense for her. Her family didn’t take the news that she was a werewolf well. Her mother wouldn’t even look at or speak to her.’ he said. My heart broke for my mate. I was also
I don’t even know how long I’d been crying before I fell asleep. I woke up when I heard the house phone and Mikali answering it. It must be mom calling to come home. I don’t know if I can face her. I don’t know if she’d even want to see me. I don’t even feel welcome in my own home anymore. I slowly got out of my bed, looked around my room, and heard Mikali starting the truck. My fingers traced the picture of my parents at my last riding championship and me. We looked so happy. They’d been so proud that I won. Now I was just a monster in their eyes. It would never be the same again. ‘What are you doing?’ Theia asked as I grabbed a bag and started to shove some clothes into it. ‘I’m leaving.’ I answered, and as a second thought, I grabbed the picture tossing it in the bag. ‘This is a bad idea.’ Theia sighed. ‘They don’t want me here. Learning what I am nearly killed, dad and mom won’t look at me. I can’t stay here. We can’t say here, Theia.’ I argued, hea
Silvercloud gave an excellent presentation. Using the information we’d gathered so far to get a general location of where Siegfried and his pack may be hiding. It's not enough to give a definitive location. Still, it was enough. I sent out scouts to start looking and get me an exact location. I want that bastard’s head on my wall. Once he’s out of the way, I can be with Aurelia, and my pack will be safe. And that’s all I really want. I was on edge through the whole meeting, waiting for any updates from Mikali or David. Once the meeting was over, I issued orders for scouts to investigate the area we thought Siegfried was hiding in. I took my phone out to call her. I wasn’t going to sit around idle. And maybe if she has her phone, we can track her. So help me if they don’t find her. “Silvercloud,” I called out, snapping my fingers before he could leave my office. “Yes, Alpha?” he questioned, turning around with his laptop under his arm. “I’m going
I trudged the half-mile from where I’d met the strange female wolf to the road. I didn’t really want to go back home. I didn’t want to face my parents. I just wanted to be with Logan, where I knew I was accepted and wanted. But he told me to go back. As much as I wanted to disobey him, to see how he’d punish me, I didn’t want to cause him more trouble. I don’t want to be a burden on him or his pack. I also don’t want him taking it out on Mikali or David for me running off. I was still weirded out by that woman back there. She never told me her name, and when I went to ask for it, she was gone. I’m pretty sure she is related to David. But I’m not sure. And the entire walk to the road, I felt like someone was watching me. Yet Theia nor I could smell or hear anyone nearby. Logic told me I was just paranoid. But given all the shit that’s happened in my life recently, I’m entitled to be paranoid. I sighed, dropping my bag as I sat down in the dirt to
Tossing my phone to the side, I sighed, rubbing my hands through my hair. “Fuck!” I growled. Just what I didn’t want or need. Another damn person knows about Aurelia. It went from a small circle of trust, and now it is growing. And Delaney? I barely know him. He and his brothers joined my pack because I took over theirs. They were in Magnus’ pack but overseas in the Navy SEALS when it happened. Like every other member of the defuncted pack, the triplets had to swear their loyalty and take a blood oath upon their return to join Bloodmoon officially. However, that doesn’t mean I trust them. They aren’t part of my trusted circle, and they don’t live in Mount Hood. Colby was… I don’t even know why the little shit was in Mount Hood. He should be with his brothers in Estacada, where their pack was located. So why was he here? He wasn’t supposed to be here, and now he happened to come across my mate. I don’t believe in coincidences. ‘John! Chuck!
I was quiet during the drive. Trying to think about everything. That girl in the forest was still stuck in my head. So was that Colby guy. Granted, I didn’t get a bad vibe from him. I just wasn’t sure he was someone I could trust. “David?” I finally spoke up. “Yes, Luna?” he asked, not taking his eyes off the road. “Mikali said you have a cousin. A girl?” I asked. He raised a pierced brow and glanced at me from the corner of his eye. “Katherine. What about her?” he questioned. “Is she mated?” I asked, remembering the mark on the girl’s neck. It was precisely where Logan said my mark would be. And it made me think of how he described marks. They were unique to the mates and would look like tattoos to most people. “No. Katherine hasn’t found her mate yet. Trust me, if Kitty had her mate, I’d know,” he shook his head. “How can you be so sure? You seem like a busy guy. You’re a state trooper, your mate is expecting, and now you’re stuck with my runaway pain
Two weeks. TWO FUCKING WEEKS! I am going crazy, and I’m barely able to contain Jericho. We’ve gotten nowhere in finding Siegfried and his rogues. Still, they’ve made small quick attacks on other cities within my territory. And it hasn’t just been pack members they went after. The fucks killed humans. Innocent people that don’t even know about our world. I haven’t been able to see Aurelia for two weeks. Talking to her via text, phone, and the occasional video chat is not God damn enough. I’ve been told that the mate bond can be intense. The pull between mates can drive a wolf crazy if they are separated from their mate too long. But for an Alpha, the pull of the bond is double. Mom used to travel with dad everywhere he went. Not because she had reason to be there but because he’d become irrational if they were apart for more than a couple of days. If this is how I feel being away from her when we haven’t mated or marked each other, I don’t want to
