Alpha NicholasWords can't describe how proud of my daughter I am. She stood tall and proud while she spoke to her mom and while I imagine that she had wanted some answers to those questions that have haunted her for a long time, deep down she also knew that there was a very big chance that she wouldn't get them and when she didn't she acted like the strong, confident girl that I know she is and I couldn't have been any more proud of her. She showed more courage than I ever had at her age and the way that she and Bonnie had each other's backs made me want to howl with pride.They barely know each other and yet they were willing to stand up for each other. That means more to me than they could ever know. I know that Bonnie is only two years older than Lottie but still, I see a great future to come for those two be it a relationship based on friendship or more. I don't mind which direction they decide to take, as long as they are happy and get along, I'm good with whatever they want.Wi
Alpha NicholasRowan's head is covered in a layer of sweat and his breathing is erratic and yet, all I've done so far is punch him just once. If he has that amount of fear from just one punch then Goddess help him when I start on him. "Would you like to tell me why you've always been such a prick to my mate?"He looks at his dad before turning back to me seeming confused, not that I have a clue why. "Your mate? Are you seriously going to accept her? Are you kidding me? Why would you do that? You're an Alpha and you deserve so much better than that poor excuse of a mutt!"Wrong fucking thing to say. I pull my arm back and land another hard hit to his stomach only this time I don't stop. I keep punching him time and time again raining blow after blow to his stomach, ribs, chest, arms and face. My vision is a wall of anger and I can't see past it. His grunts get louder as my hits get harder. My final hit breaking his nose and causing blood to splatter everywhere. Good I hope it fucking h
Alpha NicholasIf her words hurt Lily then she's doing a great job at hiding it. However, Shane is struggling to hold everything in. "Say what you want blue, I honestly don't give a fuck! You're going to pay for your sins and I'm more than happy to help you along.""She's boring me now. End her baby girl and we'll head out for dinner," Shane shouts encouraging Lily while also making her laugh. She gives him a nod before moving and only stopping once she's right in front of Blue. "Your problem, Blue, is you tend to underestimate people. You think that I won't end you but you're so fucking wrong. While I may not be as evil as you and may not have it in me to torture you as you deserve, don't think for one second that I don't have it in me to end you. Now, say goodbye because you are done!""Sure, Lily. Sure." Blue rolls her eyes but they soon widen with shock when Lily grips her head in a firm hold before twisting it hard and snapping her neck. Her head rolls to the side, the life in he
BonnieAfter I left the shed and left my entire family behind to die Will took me to the lounge room in the pack house where Lily, Sophie, Rosie, and Lottie were all sitting around and talking. There are several guards outside of the room and I understand why. These men are protective of their mates and they needed to know that their mates would be safe while they were busy with their 'guests'. As soon as Will knew that I was ok he said his goodbyes and headed back to the shed. I know that he was eager to get back to those assholes and not miss anything so I made sure not to keep him any longer than necessary.For a little while, I just sat there thinking over everything. I saw my entire family tied up and didn't feel anything. I knew that they were going to die painfully and I didn't feel anything. I saw my entire family for the last time and I didn't feel anything, not any of the emotions that I should have anyway. No anger, no sadness, nothing.If I had to pick a word to describe h
Alpha NicholasAs much as I wanted to head straight to my mate, I needed to shower more. There was blood splatter on me from that pathetic ass Rowan and I knew that their scents would be on me too and I didn't want Bonnie to pick up on that. I don't want any part of them near her again.It's the first shower that I have taken on my own since the day that Bonnie and I first mated and I can honestly say that I don't like it. Showering without her fine ass is just boring and something that I plan on doing as little as possible. Thankfully it doesn't take me long to get myself clean and out of there and the moment I do I pick up on my mate's scent. She's outside the door and if im reading her emotions right, she's nervous. She doesn't know whether to come in here or not and while I can't help but find it cute as fuck, I decided to help her."Get your pretty little ass in here, mate." The door slowly opens and as always the sight of her takes my breath away. "How did you know that I was th
Alpha NicholasOnce I have her completely naked I wedge myself in between her legs and lean back on my hunches so that I can admire the sight that's before me. She is perfect in every single way and I was a fucking fool to think that I could ever have walked away from her. "I'm the only one naked." Her cheeky smile makes me smirk. “Is that so?” I ask as I begin to slowly run my hands up and down her legs. She nods as she bites her lip and I swear that sight alone makes my knees feel weaker.“And what do you propose we do about that? Hmm?" Her cheeks go a beautiful shade of pink as she once again bites down on her lip. She's shy and I get that. I'm her first in everything that we do and while I love it I also know that she's going to be shy while she's learning but that's ok because I'll soon get her out of that. I'll soon have her asking... even begging me for what she wants and I can't wait for that.This once I decide to give her a break and swiftly peel away my towel so that we are
BonnieI slowly start waking up and groan as I stretch out my aching muscles. Last night's activities with Nicky have left me feeling like I've run a weekend-long marathon but I wouldn't have it any other way. Finally mating with him was the most amazing experience of my life.I know that he's said that he wants me but saying it and showing it are two completely different things so having him want his mark on me for the whole world to see means more than words can say.I look over to his side of the bed to find him gone and sadness instantly washes over me. I thought that he would be here the morning after we mated, I thought that we would have stayed in bed a little while but I guess not.I understand he has responsibilities and while I'm proud of the Alpha that he is it doesn't mean that there won't be times that I want him with me but he can't be, just like right now I guess.I stretch one final time before getting out of bed. As much as I love the memories from last night, the sti
Alpha NicholasI've been in my office for almost 2 hours but you wouldn't think it, I've gotten barely any paperwork done because despite my best efforts, my mind keeps going back to last night and this morning with my mate. Last night we finally marked. Yes, I know it hasn't been that long since we met and even less time since we mated but most mates mark each other within the first day or two so in comparison we took our time but I'm ok with that.To be honest, with how I treated her in the beginning I'm just happy and honoured that she allowed me to mark her at all. I had hoped that we were heading in that direction but I thought she was going to make me wait a lot longer but once again she surprised me. If there's one thing that I'm learning about my mate it's that she doesn't mess around, she doesn't play games and it's something that I very much appreciate.Mating her was without a doubt the most incredible experience of my life, and it will be a memory that I'm never going to f
BonnieBoy, has it been a day! A very long, emotionally draining day, but I'm oddly kind of glad that it happened. Of course, hearing Lottie talk to me about how she felt and taking in the words that she said and the meaning behind it all was heartbreaking, but I do believe that having her talk to Nick and me about how she's been feeling was a good thing.One because it explains why she said all of the things that she did and two because maybe now that she has finally said everything out loud, it will help her too because she had a lot of thoughts and feelings and while some of them are a result from the pain that her birth mom has caused her during her life, some of them also just resembled an act of a jealous teenage girl.The quicker she learns that she isn't going to be replaced or forgotten or lose me or this baby the better because I hate to think of her suffering like that. And while I can't promise that nothing won't happen to the baby, I can promise that I will do everything p
Alpha Nicholas Hearing my daughter's fears was hard. I never want her to be scared of anything, but whereas I will always do my best to protect her from physical harm, I can't do a lot to protect her from her mental fears. As much as I want to, it's just not possible. The scars that her birth mom left behind have the potential to haunt her for a long time, possibly even for the rest of her life.As hard as it must be for her to feel how she does or how she did, I can't and won't allow her to talk to anyone like she did, especially Bonnie. While she has my sympathy, if I let her get away with this without any kind of punishment, then I won't be doing my job as her dad. Yes, her words had meaning and I somewhat understand how she feels, but she didn't need to talk to Bonine like she did, and just the mere thought of her in any way mentioning killing the baby has me seeing red.If I let her speak to Bonnie... her stepmom... her Luna like she did, then I can only imagine how she could sp
BonnieI'd be lying if I said that hearing those words out of Lottie's mouth didn't break my heart and I can both sense and feel that Nick feels the same. There are so many things that I want to say to her right now, but I hold back both wanting and feeling that Nick should take the lead here.He takes a deep breath while keeping his eyes locked with hers. "If that's the truth, then yes, that's what I want to hear. We need to get to the bottom of whatever is going on, no matter how hard it may be for you to say or for us to hear." Nick tries to remain calm, but I can feel his emotions, and they are all over the place. "So, is that the truth?"She nods her head as she wipes more tears away from her eyes. "Why, sweetheart? Why are you feeling jealous?" She stares at Nick, but I can see it in her eyes. She is struggling to word what she wants to say, but I'm pretty sure that I have it figured out, so I just go with it and blurt it out. "Lottie, am I right in thinking that you're jealous
BonnieI hate the feeling that everyone is currently against Lottie, or having any kind of bad thoughts against her, and while I know it's stupid given the situation, I just can't help it. There is already a protective streak inside me when it comes to Lottie and, regardless of the situation, it's hard to switch off."Lottie, would you like to tell your grandparents and uncles what you have done, or even better why?" Nick asks her, although it's more of a command than a question. Lottie's face slightly pales while everyone in the room just looks confused, and I get it.While Lottie is a typical 16-year-old girl with hair, makeup and talks about finding mates being a part of her daily life, from what I've been told and come to learn myself since I've been here, it doesn't appear that Lottie has caused a lot of trouble in her life. She seems to be a pretty well-behaved girl, so I can only imagine that everyone is a bit confused right now.I grab my mate's attention and lean into him, ke
Alpha Nicholas"I'm sorry, sweetheart. Can you say that again?" My mate hiccups as she tries to calm herself down and control her breathing. "Lottie, She said that you don't want any more children. She said that you have never wanted any other children aside from her." What the fuck is my daughter playing at?While I know that my daughter isn't innocent because let's be honest, no children are, I still can't imagine her ever being mean to Bonnie, especially over a baby, and her baby brother or sister at that. Growing up, she had always wanted a sibling, so why would she react like this now? Whatever her reason, I'm fucking angry and my pregnant mate is completely heartbroken, and I want this shit sorted out right now!"Where is she?" I growl. I'm trying to keep my anger under control, but it's so fucking hard right now. "I don't want this to... I..." Before she can finish her sentence she breaks down crying once more, and I swear that every single tear that she shreds feels like it te
Bonnie After not feeling well for a few days, I was starting to get a little worried. Werewolves don't generally get ill, but here I was constantly tired. I was sick in the mornings and my appetite was all over the place and yet, I still didn't put the pieces together, but Nick's mom did. Earlier today, while the guys were down in the cells, she came to see me. Nick had gone to her worried about me and, because so far I had refused to see a doctor, he had asked her to come and see me, hoping that maybe he could figure out what was wrong with me.Of course, within minutes of me telling her what was wrong, she had worked it out all while a massive smile appeared on her face. The moment she told me that she was certain that I was pregnant, I wanted to pass out. Of course, looking back now, I realize that the symptoms were all there screaming in my face, but for some reason, I had missed them all.I generally hadn't even thought about the possibility that I could be pregnant, which was s
Alpha NicholasThe moment I step on to the Alpha floor, I feel my body instantly start to relax and, after a quick chat with my parents, my dad ushers her, the girls and the guards out of my lounge and off my floor, clearly sensing my need for alone time with my mate, which I appreciate. Before he left, he insisted on having the guards stationed at the bottom of the stairs that lead to my floor, which I have no problem with. They are close enough for our protection, more importantly, the protection of my mate, but also far enough away not to impose on any of my alone time with my mate. The stairs that they are now guarding are the only way to gain access to my floor, so I can finally allow my mind to settle and forget about all the shit that's going on, even if it's only for a few hours.When I first stepped on to our floor, I could faintly smell Bonnie's scent, but the moment I entered our bedroom it hit me in the face like a hammer, and I'm instantly in need of her. I look down at t
Alpha Nicholas"So I get why you changed your mind about talking to anyone, but why were you hiding in the bushes when they all ran? Surely you would have known that you would have been caught?" Shane asks Alberto as I sit back and let him take the reins. "That's what I was hoping for," he grunts."What? Why?" Robbie asks, taking the words right out of my mouth. "I figured that while I couldn't come to you off my own back if you caught me while we were trying to hide and escape, then it was out of my control." I'll give it to him, it wasn't the smartest move in the world but not the worst either."So you hoped that we would find you and bring you here so that you could tell us what was going on? Maybe hoped that we would help you?" Shane asks. Alberto nods, agreeing while shifting himself in his seat, looking uncountable. "There's no way that you didn't think that there was a chance that we would kill you for the betrayal before you could even tell us anything. What if our men had kil
Warrior Robbie “You fucking what!” I bellow unable to rein in my anger. I don’t mean to blurt the words out, but Nick gave me the reins of control here, so I’m just going to go with it.“They have my mate.” Alberto huffs out as his body appears to relax. Is he relieved that he told us? My reaction to his words is to call bullshit but something inside of me holds me back. I think Nick was right to want to listen to him before acting because, while I’m not sure if he’s 100% telling me the truth, I’m also not sure that he isn’t.There’s something in his voice and a look in his eyes that leads me to believe that he could be telling me the truth, but if he is, then how the fuck have they managed to get their hands on her? How did any of this happen?“I don’t understand… you’d better start explaining this, Alberto. And by explain I mean from beginning to end and not missing out on anything. I want every single detail." Nick grunts. I’m pretty sure we’re on the same wavelength here and afte
