Alpha NicholasWe keep searching for a few more miles but one by one the group searching mind links me to inform me that they have reached dead ends and it's starting to fuck me off. How can this be? I try to ignore the throbbing in my head but it's becoming impossible. They may be reaching dead ends but the more I search the stronger my mate's scent is getting and I soon realize that I know where we are heading, it's the cliffs that surround a massive waterfall and lake. Could she be up on them? It would explain why my men keep hitting dead ends, they are more than likely reaching the bottom of the cliffs.I link Robbie telling him that we are heading for the waterfall and leave him to inform the others as I continue moving forward. I kept tracking her scent until I too hit a dead end and it was just as I thought, It was a dead end because of the cliffs that surrounded the waterfall and lake but luckily for me, I know a quick way up them.As a teenager, I spent a lot of time explorin
BonnieAfter a few minutes of him running his hands through my hair and taking lots of deep breaths, he finally starts talking. "So you remember me telling you about Lottie's mom turning up here when she was 7, right?" I nod yes because well, how could I forget what she did? "Well, her wanting money for Lottie wasn't all she wanted when she came for that visit."She... when she first turned up she wanted me to take her as my chosen mate, to be a family with Lottie but that was never going to happen, and after she didn't get the response that she wanted she blackmailed me by demanding that I give her money or I would lose Lottie."I'm not that surprised that she wanted to mate with him "What else did she do?" He takes a deep breath and all I see is a pain in his eyes, and it feels like my heart is breaking for him so I reach out and take his hand in mine hoping to bring him even the smallest of comfort. He gives me a gentle smile but it doesn’t cover his hurt.“After I paid her she lef
Alpha Nicholas “Telling Bonnie that final part of what happened has left me feeling so many different things and above all else completely drained. I feel like I could sleep for a month but on the other hand, I also feel relieved that she knows but more than anything I feel pure terrifying fear. Once I knew I wanted her with every fiber of my bearing I was afraid that she would leave after all I had put her through but now…Well, now I’m fucking terrified that she will, and while there’s a part of me that still wants her to so that I know she will live and can have the chance of being happy there’s another part of me that never wants to let her go regardless of what could be. And while it sounds awful I’m only thinking that way because it’s been a few days since we met and yet she’s still alive so maybe we have a chance… Just maybe.I’ll pulled out of my wondering mind as my mate wiggles on my lap. She seems concerned but nothing like I thought she would be. I imagined she would be t
Alpha NicholasI don't think I have ever run so fast before in my whole life. When I sent the guards back with Bonine's brother and that bitch that calls herself my daughter's mom I give Tony some other errands to run for me to keep him away. Of course, I knew that he would want to go and see her after what she did. Of course, I knew that he would love nothing more than to kill the bitch and he may not know it yet but if it comes down to that then I'm going to give him the honour of ending her life, it is the least he deserves, but right now, I need her alive because I need to know what the fuck she's up to now. I've not seen her in almost 9 years so why is she here now?As I run with all I have to reach the cells where we keep all our prisoners I send Will a link to get several guards down there. I need to contain this as quickly as possible but it could all go very wrong very quickly and I want to make sure I have a few men there to keep Tony in line. He may be one wolf but he's als
Alpha Nicholas The lights go out and my heart rate instantly spikes because I know exactly who has caused this. “Tony stop!” I bellow across the room making mine and everyone else's heads spin from how hard my voice bounces off the walls. I grab Bonnie's hand next to me and instantly get angry at how hard she is shaking. “Will,” I shout a little softer this time and he is instantly at my side. “Stay here, guard her with your life!” He nods as he walks to the other side of her.One great thing about being a werewolf is being able to see in the dark and already the room is clearing up making this easier. Not that It would matter, as I've said before I know every inch of my pack lands inside and out and I know exactly where the switchboard is that Tony has used to shit off the lights.“I've got her, go.” Will grunts as he takes Bonnie's other hand. I'm glad he comforting her but it's hard not to want to rip his head off for touching my mate's hand. I place a swift kiss on Bonnie's head
BonnieI'm currently standing in the basement room of the cells surrounded by a bunch of scary wolves while one of the people who tried to kill me sits right in front of me and yet all I can think about is poor Tony. I can't even begin to imagine what he is feeling or thinking right now but I imagine huge amounts of hate and grief are on top of it all and yet, here he is helping Nick with my problems and he even took the time to check on me and held his anger back enough to be able to make a joke with Nick. I never got to meet Opal but from the little I have heard she sounds like she was an incredible girl and already I know that Tony is pretty amazing and the thought of him losing her like he did breaks my heart. I know second-chance mates are somewhat rare but I hope he gets given one, one day. He never got to experience the bond, not really, and yet I can tell that he would be an incredible mate and father and I hope he gets to have all of that one day. "As much as I am enjoying
Alpha Harold My life is crazy, being Alpha is no easy fate and it can be a lot to deal with and lately, for me, it’s becoming a lot to deal with way to often which is why I decided to take a vacation and visit my sister at her pack. I haven’t taken a vacation in almost 4 years and it’s truely needed. Of course, being an Alpha means I’m never free to travel alone because even if I have no enemies that I am aware of that doesn’t mean that someone out there won’t decide to attack me if they spot me alone, especially a Rogue so I may be on vacation but I’m still not alone. I have five guards with me and while I’d rather be alone they have been very good in staying close enough to protect me but also far enough away that I still get a sense of peace. I’ve missed my sister over the last four years that I haven’t seen her but I just couldn’t face visiting her. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to but the last time I did my Luna, my wife had been by my side. The day she died devastate
Alpha Nicholas This little prick thinks he’s clever but he’s nothing but a waste of air and he’s going to pay for the hell he’s put my mate through. Of course, I know the werewolf law of not being able to punish him for a crime without his Alpha's permission. If Bonnie had officially been my mate when I caught him attacking her then I would have ended him right there and then and it wouldn’t have been a problem. Still, I don’t want a war with another pack if I can prevent it and I also didn’t want his end to be that quick, he thinks there’s a way for him to get off easy but there’s not.Yes, I pride myself on being a man of my word but when it comes to Rowan and Lola all bets are off which is why today in the middle of everything happening I managed to find a few minutes to call Alpha Harold and inform him of what I caught Rowan doing out in the forest, I also made him aware of the further issues that we need to discuss but thankfully, he was happy to come here and discuss everything
Alpha NicholasSomehow, I managed to remain calm while I carried my mate up to our floor and into our bedroom, but the moment that I laid her down and took in how innocent she always looks when she is sleeping, I felt the anger come back full force causing my body to shake with the anger simmering through my veins.That prick Talon thinking that he could come on to my pack lands and into my pack house and take away a young girl who is currently under my protection is bad enough, but those mother fuckers who were supposed to be loyal to me, loyal to everyone here betraying us is soul-destroying.Worst of all, instead of doing their job and protecting the people of this pack, they went and betrayed us. They hurt people that they have worked alongside for years. People that they have stood side by side with during good and bad times. People who would have laid their lives down for them, no questions asked. They have taken away a dad from his pups and fuck, just thinking about it makes me
Alpha NicholasWhen in the ever-loving fuck did life become such a shit show? It feels like one minute everything was as calm as can be and the next bang... my entire world went tumbling inside out and upside down. In the space of two months, my brothers and I have gone from having no mates to all of us finding our mates, and every single mate has come along with a bang of their own.Now, don't mistake my complaining for any kind of resentment towards any of the women because it isn't like that. The incidents that have happened since they arrived here haven't been their fault and I know that my brothers and I have all been more than happy to help like we us. None of us regret a single one of the women arriving here and what we've had to do to keep them safe.Hell, after having Lottie, Bonnie is the best thing to ever happen to me but fuck, we can't catch a break. It's one thing after another and it's fucking draining. My mate has been here for almost six weeks and I still have not had
Warrior RobbieHearing my mate's story is hard but I'm glad that she's willing to talk to us. She's come from goddess only knows what and is currently sitting in a room with a bunch of big scary looking guys and yet, she not holding back. She's nothing if not incredibly brave thats for sure. Not that she has anything to fear from any of us but she doesn't know that, not yet anyway."Where did you come from?" Shane asks bringing my attention back to my mate. "We were Rogues. We were only a small pack. There were maybe thirty of us. They... they killed all the men and some of the women when they put up a fight and then of course there were the ones that got away and the remaining five were taken to that camp." I'm going to hunt down every single wolf that is involved in these camps and I'm going to end them all no matter how long it takes."So what happened when you met Talon?" Nick asks bringing the conversation back around. "He picked out a girl and told her that she was his and then
Warrior Robbie "I'm sorry, he's your fucking what?" The words tumble from my mouth before I even have a chance to think about it. I know that prick said that he was her mate, and yes it pissed me off to no end, but I knew that it was all bullshit because she's my mate so I held the anger in but hearing her say it hits differently and I'm instantly ready to tear the room apart.I feel her tense up next to me and swiftly realise that I need to rein in my anger because I'm scaring her, and that is the last thing that I should do, that I want to do. I duck my head down so that we are face to face. "I'm sorry," I whisper to her. "You're safe, Aria. My anger is not directed at you.No matter the reason for my anger, you will never have to fear me. I will never take it out on you in any way." I still don't know what she's been through yet, but either way, I know that it hasn't been good, but I'll make dam sure that she knows that her future will be different, that it will be good. That she
Warrior RobbieThis new development involving my mate has thrown me through a loop. And this idiot who's turned up here claiming to be her mate... yeah, he's really not helping things. There's something up with him. I can't tell you what it is, at least not right now anyway, but I can feel it, I can sense it and I have a feeling that shits going to hit the fan very soon and he going to be a dead man."Aria, you have my word as Alpha of this pack that you won't be forced to do anything that you don't want to by anyone. Nor will you be forced to go anywhere or with anyone that you don't want to." Nick's words are soft and considerate and I want to hug him for how he's being with my mate. "Thank you," she whispers as she looks at Nick with tears in her eyes."She's my mate, she's mine, I own her and you can't stop me from taking her with me. You can't hold her against her will!" Talon bellows getting seriously pissed. Oh well, too bad too sad for him. He takes another step forward and I
Warrior RobbieThe moment he says my mate's name I feel my blood instantly boil. Who the fuck is this motherfucker? If he thinks he can just stroll in here and walk right on out with my mate then he's got another thing coming. I will tear him limb from limb before I let that happen. "Who are you and how the hell did you even get in here?" I growl trying and failing to keep my tone calm. He raises a single brow as a cocky smile covers his face and I swear it takes all I have not to knock him the fuck out right here right now."Do it. On second thoughts, let me at him. Fucker won't have a thing to be cocky about by the time I'm finished with him." Cain growls as he comes to the front of my mind. "I'd be more than happy to let you do it but right now, we need to find out what exactly it is that this prick wants with our mate." He doesn't say another word but he grunts and stomps around in my head hard enough to make it more than clear about how he feels and I get it, I do because I feel
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
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
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
