Alpha Nicholas While Robbie's Link could have come at a better time, I'm not angry at him. Now, if he had interrupted my chance at round two just to inform me of something completely useless then I would personally kick his ass but this... what he needs right now, it won't get pushed aside. No chance.I close the link and instantly see my mate's face covered in concern. "You look worried. Is everything ok?" She asks as she turns around so she's now facing me. I shake my head as I try to figure out what to tell her but then I remember that she is going to my Luna and an Alpha never has any secrets from his Luna unless it's a surprise for her so why start now? I've asked her to give us a chance and despite how much of a dickhead I have been to her in the past she still agreed so the least I can do is treat her with the respect that she deserves."You don't have to tell me anything, I understand if you can't." Her words are honest and her instant support and understanding make me feel p
Alpha Nicholas "He is going to regret that half a bottle of whiskey he drank in the morning." Shane laughs as he helps me haul Robbie's passed-out body onto the bed that's in one of my spare rooms. After Robbie told me this his mate is in the children's group he passed out before I could even respond to him so I hauled his ass over my shoulder and made my way back to my floor in the pack house but of course, as with everything else in life, it couldn't go nice and easy and allow me to get him back without anyone seeing, no.Instead, Shane found us before we'd even made it halfway across the outside training grounds. He'd been heading out for a run while Lily was taking a bath and of course, he bumped into us. After he had gotten over his fear that something was wrong with Robbie, his curiosity set in and he began questioning me with more skill than a well-experienced FBI accent.I tried to fob him off the best I could, I did but he knew I was lying after the very first question and I
Warrior Robbie It's been a few hours since everyone went their own ways for the night and while all of my brothers have headed to their floors to be with their mates I've found myself sitting in my bedroom all alone while my mind runs a storm in my head.How the fuck is this happening? My wolf Cane hasn't made it any easier and I get it, I do he's dealing with this too. On top of finding out that our mate is a child, he is also dealing with the fact that she doesn't have her wolf so he doesn't even get that connection yet."What the fuck are we gonna do?" I'm not sure if I'm talking to Cane or myself but still, he answers me. "First we need to find out how old she is." He's right but the truth is that I'm scared to know because while I have a sense that she could be late teens so possibly close to legal age, another part of me doubts it as she looks young, She's a tiny petite thing and it's sending my head into a spin."What if she is stupid young? What if it's going to be years unti
Alpha Nicholas "How did he look when you checked in on him?" Bonnie asks the moment I step into the kitchen area. It's only 7 am and yet, she's already up, showered, dressed and has a massive breakfast spread out across our breakfast island. There's enough food and coffee to feed a small army and it smells fucking delicious.Then again neither of us slept much last night. Bonnie was out of bed by 5 am as she couldn't sleep over worrying that Robbie would vomit and choke in his sleep so I'm not surprised that she's managed to pull all of this off already but still, she didn't need to. However, If there's one thing that I know about my mate, it's that she loves looking after others and I love her all the more for it."He woke up when I went in but the poor bastard was in rough shape. He's going to suffer today that's for sure." While part of me wants to laugh at the state that Robbie was in when he woke up, a bigger part of me stops it from happening.Robbie getting drunk at any given
Warrior Robbie As soon as we sit our asses down in Nick's office where both Shane and Will are already waiting for us I waste no time in filling them in on everything. Nick had already told me what Shane had found out last night but I'm not mad at him for telling him. I understand the situation he was in and I probably would have done the same if I had been in his position.“Fuck!” Will grunts as soon as I finish speaking. “Fuck man, I don't know whether to congratulate you or give you my sympathy.” Nick and Shane nod agreeing while I try and figure out what to say next but thankfully, Nick seems to understand my struggle as he speaks up for me.“So, we need to talk with the women and children. We need to collect information from them so that we can figure out who needs help getting back home and who needs a home. There are more than likely a few Rogues in the group but it doesn't necessarily mean that they will want to be again so I'd like to be able to give them options. More impor
Warrior RobbieWithin twenty minutes we have six groups all huddled into different areas of the room as we get ready to talk to them. Considering how many children are currently in this room I thought it would have taken us much longer to get them organised but they were incredibly well behaved which I'm grateful for."Now, while I understand that you would like to be the one to talk to your mate, I also understand if you've changed your mind and would prefer for someone else to do it. There's no judgment from any of us if you worry that you can't handle it."Once again Nick's concern is appreciated but if anyone's going to be speaking to my Mate it's me. "I'm good. I've got this," I grunt. He gives me a nod as he starts telling everyone what group they are to take while I walk to the one at the far end when my mate is sitting at the back of the row looking a little lost and a little scared. Fcuk, I wish that I could help calm her down but until she is of age she won't feel any part o
Bonnie"If you don't get your goddam ass down here right now, I swear to the Moon Goddess herself I'm going to get my fucking belt out and make you sorry!" My dad's voice sends chills down my spine and has my entire body shaking knowing the pain that it's going to endure very soon. My dad means what he says and, thanks to my prick of a brother, my punishment will be even more painful than normal."If I have to come and get you, you know what will happen mutt!" He keeps bellowing while I shift myself further backward in my closest while praying for a miracle or, at the very least, for a giant hole to appear in these old floorboards and swallow me whole. Of course, reality wouldn't be as kind as to create a hole for me. No, my reality will result in pain and a lot of it."Where the fuck are you!" His voice suddenly seems so close and a growl that can only belong to that of a Beta suddenly has the walls around me shaking. Shit, he's here! "This is your last chance to come out mutt. If you
BonnieI move as quickly as I can to get off of the floor and drag myself to my bathroom to try and clean myself up as best as I can before I go downstairs. The pain in my back is now more of a dull ache, but the cuts from the glass are stinging like a bitch. Luckily for me, most of the cuts aren't very deep and, from what I can see, they don't have any glass in them, so they will heal just fine. However, the one in the palm of my hand is deep and will take much longer to heal.I winch as I pull out the piece of glass quickly before wrapping a cloth around it to hopefully help slow down the bleeding. "I'm sorry I can't heal you, Bon Bon." Lexis's sad voice pulls at my heartstrings. "It's not your fault, Lex." As usual, she doesn't agree, but it's the truth. Yes, she's too weak to heal any of my bigger wounds, but she still heals my little ones and more importantly, she is here for me, which means more than she'll ever know.The reason she can't help me with the bigger wounds is because

Alpha NicholasThe moment the words leave my lips she lets out the sweetest moan. It's a mix of need and want, and it's hot as fuck. "I'm pretty sure I told you to be quiet or I wouldn't let you come." She doesn't say a word as she slips right back into her role. "I'm feeling genius so I'm going to let that one slide but if it happens again you'll be very sorry Luna, do you understand me? You may talk to answer me.""I understand, Alpha." Fuck the things it does to me when she submits like this. "Good girl." I grip her hips and swiftly turn her around until she's facing me. The water from the shower is slowly running down her body and the sight makes my cock twitch. I reach out and gently stroke her cheek with one single finger feeling the full effect of the mate bond as the sparks zap between us and what makes it even better is seeing Bonnie biting her lip not to make a noise.As I look into her eyes I realise how much I’m truly struggling. Today has been a shit show and I have a fee
Alpha Nicholas It’s just after 6 pm and still fairly early but after the day that we’ve had, I’ve given everyone the night off. The new arrivals have had a rough fucking day and I think some time alone together will be good for them. I don’t want them to feel ganged up on the moment they arrive so instead, Bonnie had make-shift beds set up in the ballroom and some of my she-wolves are currently cooking them a feast and directing those who wish to shower to our guest bathroom on the main floor.We also have several She-wolves staying in the room with them to help with the children. 50 children to 20 women is a lot to handle never mind the fact that they are pregnant. And while I want to be mindful of their needs I still have to think of my pack and make sure my members are safe so despite the hospitality that I'm happy to show them I've also got several warriors outside of the room while some of the females that are inside helping are also warriors and are on full alert. While I'd lik
BonnieI feel nervous as I watch the SUVs make their way through the pack grounds and towards the pack house. I don't know all the details but from what Nick's dad has told me things at that place were bad and while it was bad enough that they didn't find Tony's boys what they did find was even worse.All those poor children and women, where they found them… what they've been through. Goddess it just doesn't bear thinking about. I know there's still much more for me to find out and I will, but for now, my first focus is to give those women and children whatever help they need.Of course, finding out that they couldn't find the boys was devastating and unfortunately, Rosie overheard Nick's dad and me talking and she understandably broke down and has been inconsolable since, and I'm just hoping that Tony can help her because if he can't I'm not sure if anyone can. I'm just praying that the mate bond will be strong enough to pull her through this.The ground rumbles beneath us as the SUV
