32 - Decisions

2024-10-29 19:42:56Everything in me told me to throw Zach the fuck off my pack lands. His problems were not my problems. If Zander was dumb enough to come for Tyra then he’d have a war. But until that time came, I saw no reason to get involved. I eyed Nate and he just looked put out.
“There’s a cabin about half a mile in, I’ll let you stay there tonight. I’ll speak with my team in the morning but I really see no reason to help you. I’ll have someone bring towels and some things you can make breakfast with. None of your people are to leave that building until you speak to me again. If you do go wandering off, my patrols will attack you. Nate will show you the way,” I said, firmly.
“We appreciate it,” Zach said, putting out his hand.
“Forget it,” Tyra said, ta

Alpha Ridge 33 - Just, No
~Ridge’s Point of View~I’d gone this morning to visit my parents and get my dad’s opinion on things. They had a little house about half a mile from the packhouse where they stayed half the time. The other half, they had a small cottage by my sister and her mate’s parents.My dad had been the Beta of the White Star pack we’d all grown up in before Gunner destroyed our village. Even though he’d never held a title in our current pack, everyone still addressed him as Beta and you bet he wasn’t going to correct them.I still went to him for advice on a lot of occasions and since becoming Alpha, our relationship had never been stronger. His name was Rock, and that was what he was to everyone in his life … our rock.
Alpha Ridge 34 - Options
~Zach’s Point of View~“There’s just got to be some options. Is there any chance of using the leverage of Jake’s new mate to get the White Falls pack to help us,” I said to Ryan.“Little ironic that they named their pack after some falls and a hot spring that was actually on Blood Claw’s lands,” Jake snorted.Jake and a couple of my warriors had come to my pack from Blood Claw but they were young when it fell, and didn’t have much to do with everything that went down. Jake had only just gotten his wolf a few months ago but he was damn impressive and I’d promoted him straight away.“What happened to the rest of their packlands,” I asked.
Alpha Ridge 35 - All In
~Tyra’s Point of View~Zach shows up, takes my sister and now Ridge’s father. What the hell is going on!? He’s a damn tick that just has to keep sucking the life out of me!RING RING RING.Oh shit, I thought, looking at the caller ID. It was Vanessa’s mom, well my mom really. If I ignored it, she’d worry. I highly doubted Vanessa was going to tell her what was going on, not that she was answering her phone.“Hey mom,” I said, nervously.“Hey sweetie! How are you girls doing? Catching up on your gossip,” she asked.“Well uhm … we didn’t exactly get a chance. Is dad with you? I shou
Alpha Ridge 36 - A Wish
Everyone agreed to use Alpha Heath’s lands as a staging point since he was the closest to Long Tooth. We needed to be organized but we also wanted to strike quickly. Everyday that passed was another day for Zander to potentially gather more rogues. “We need a couple more points to set up, we’re going to have to get maybe two more on the other side of his lands,” I said, looking over maps. “It’s going to get harder to have a large presence here without drawing attention, especially with his rogues trying to jump over the line all the time,” Pike said. “Yeah, I know we don’t want to rush this but I don’t think we have a choice. We need to strike ASAP, and by that I mean like tomorrow night,” I said. “I’m leaving now to go meet with Zach’s Beta and see what their
Alpha Ridge 37 - Calm Before The Storm
~Ridge’s Point of View~Tyra had been gone a few hours and I wasn’t sure if I should mind-link her or give her space. She doesn’t talk about her dad, her childhood. I know little bits but she was always kept away from the pack for the most part. I knew the broader story but not the emotional angle of it from her perspective. So I had no clue if this was difficult for her or what. But she’s so stubborn and hardheaded about showing emotion she probably wouldn’t tell me anyhow.“I just saw Pike back at the packhouse, he was speaking with our Luna and organizing dinner,” Louis, one of my warriors said.“Good, he was only gone a couple of hours and most of that would have been his travel. Must have been a short meeting, link everyone to meet here at 8 for a br
Alpha Ridge 38 - Stroll In The Woods
~Ridge’s Point of View~Maybe I should have noticed, but I didn’t. The Alpha for Pale Moon, Tyra’s previous pack, had been gone all day. Now that I was seeing him again, I was curious. I gauged who he was speaking with, Alpha Fox from Hollow Hill. He had been gone all day too.“Alphas, anything new to report,” I asked, barging in on their conversation.“Yeah. We were out just getting a few things for a contingency plan, should be coming up any minute,” Fox said.I raised my eyebrow and looked at Nate who had just gotten to my side.*I only just found out, they got weapons,* Nate said, over mind-link.Fox and the others had tu
Alpha Ridge 39 - Made Ya Look
We made our way to our scouting location without another incident. We were checking out a watch tower. Someone passed me binoculars and I quickly began looking around. It didn’t seem like anyone was there. I estimated the tower to only be about a quarter mile over the property line.“Doesn’t seem like anyone is there,” Jake said, sneaking up on me.“You’re not supposed to be so close,” I said, annoyed.“Dude nobody knows this area better than me, I spent a lot of fucking nights in that tower,” he said, defiant.“Link some of your guys, see what they’re saying,” I said. He nodded.“Greg’s location is empty too, about four miles west of he
Alpha Ridge 40 - Frantic
~Tyra’s Point of View~“He’s just so incredible! I mean yeah, he kind of looks like a caveman, and ohh let me tell you he was rough with me like one too! But I fucking loved it,” Vanessa said, rubbing her arms.“Do I have to hear this .. all night,” I whined.“Yes! You do damn it! If I can’t gush to you about my mate, then I only have mom and that’s just not happening,” she said, plopping on the bed.My parents had gone to Ridge’s pack, to help with things while most of the men were gone. We’d called them about an hour ago and they were wrangling some pups, trying to help get them ready for bed.“But even though he’s huge and sol

Alpha Ridge ~Epilogue~
~Epilogue~ ~Four Months Later~ ~Missy’s Point of View~ “Are you sure you’re ready to try this baby,” Nate asked, from underneath me. I made a face, since I was already struggling like hell with my current position. I was splayed out across the top of Nate’s body with my back to his chest. My hair was likely suffocating him. Between everything with the village and having little Fisher, we rarely take advantage of the witches’ offers to send us somewhere exotic anymore. But tonight had been planned for weeks, and both grandmas were handling things so we could have a weekend away. However, I still had to have Kendra pop in every 12 hours
Alpha Ridge 55 - The Next Chapter
~Missy’s Point of View~ ~Next Month~ “Kendra I don’t understand, what’s so important that you had to--” I fumbled into the dark room to find the light, wondering why she was dragging me into the daycare at 8pm on a Friday night. I flicked the switch and my jaw dropped. “SURPRISE!!!” I gasped and covered my mouth as everyone cheered and shouted. There were balloons all over and confetti flew through the air. I looked next to Renata and saw a giant cake, easily four tiers. On top was a brown haired doll in a shiny red dress just like she’d made me for the dance. There were two males in tuxedos both holding on to the doll.
Alpha Ridge 54 - New Depths
~Missy’s Point of View~ *Are you really not going to shift back,* I said, feeling defeated. My wolf and I laid in front of the packhouse and everyone gawked at us. It had been hours and hours since my shift, and my wolf seemed to be content to stay. She was still mad that I forced her shift early, she was mad that our mates weren’t here to see it and help. She was determined to stay until she got to see them and offer a piece of her mind. I was certain her little badass attitude would fall away once she saw them. The humans were very curious about her, and she let them pet her. She thought it made her feel special and important. Admired, when she couldn’t get that satisfaction from her mates. “Everyone can
Alpha Ridge 53 - Long Tooth's Final Stand
~Nate’s Point of View~Could there be anything more impossible than both my mates needing me and having to choose? Missy only gets her first shift once, we had to know it would happen after getting marked. But we couldn’t put off the invasion, not when the Shadows were all ready to go.Would Ryan have been okay without me? Probably. It wasn’t like I did anything but try to comfort him anyhow. This was a whole new dynamic that would take some real thought. Two mates absolutely dependent on me, and Ryan having two dependent on him as well. We were as joined as three people could be. If you’d asked me even a month ago who I would choose in a moment like this, of course I’d have said Missy. She should always be the number one choice. But now I also know, if anything happened to Ryan it would positively devas
Alpha Ridge 52 - Snarky
~Renata’s Point of View~ I felt Diego now as if he were so close, but I still couldn’t mind-link him. I watched out the window as there was a crazy rain storm that seemed to come and go, then a glowing light in the distance made my jaw drop. I quickly opened my two windows in shock, trying to be sure I was seeing things correctly. A forest fire. Ohh goddess! They’ll never put that out! They’re gonna burn the damn pack to the ground! Oh fuck I gotta get outta here! My mind went into overdrive and I suddenly had to wonder if I could shift and be able to get out of the ankle cuff, I’d have a smaller leg. Would that work? Desperate times Renata… I cle
Alpha Ridge 51 - Just Like That
~Ryan’s Point of View~I hadn’t been in the battle of Blood Claw, but everyone damn well knew the stories. A witch that could raise the dead, use them as a fucked up to way to fight your enemy. And in smoke so thick you can’t even see what’s coming at you? I didn’t sign up for this shit!*Renata, it’s all for her. We are here for her,* Huck reminded me.*It’s all for killing our fucking father,* I reminded him.We all had knives or daggers of some sort, but no guns. Did guns even work against the dead? Did knives? Fuck if I know, there isn’t a training manual for batshit crazy witches!*Katrina thinks this wit
Alpha Ridge 50 - Nameless Wolf
~Missy’s Point of View~ I can only make popcorn for so damn long, what am I going to do for all these people tonight? On top of that, I had a huge migraine and my skin was just super itchy. Maybe if I could sneak away and get a bath I’d feel better. I was already sick of the wink and nudge act from Nate’s mom who kept finding excuses to look at my neck. Although, several people did. They said I smelled different and of course everyone knew what that meant. “We’ll have to have a proper Luna ceremony,” someone said. I had no idea what that entailed, but with my mates gone and my best friend kidnapped it was hardly something I could waste my brain space on for now.
Alpha Ridge 49 - We Are The Fight
~Diego’s Point of View~ I stood on the practically barren Blood Claw lands, and could hardly imagine what this looked like once upon a time. Tyson didn’t much like to talk about his childhood, he said he was just a mindless zombie doing and going where he was told much like everyone else. That was hard for me to believe now, knowing how strong and confident he was today. But I guess we were all children at some point, just eager to please our parents. Goddess knows I was always trying to prove myself. I had a massive family but we were now spread out all over the place. My parents still live with my youngest sister who has yet to shift. I have no clue what they’ll do when they finally have an empty house, maybe … just maybe I could convince them to come here. They didn
Alpha Ridge 48 - Mama Bear
~Renata’s Point of View~ After Tyler’s stupid ass witch succeeded in scaring the shit out of me, everyone left me alone. One of the cooks from the packhouse I knew so well … an older female named Mary, brought me some fruits and finger foods. She refused to really look at or speak to me though. I couldn’t hold it against her, she was obviously scared. Sometime around two in the morning I did drift off to sleep, though it was so light and paranoid I woke barely feeling I’d slept. The sun was up, yet I was still here. I absolutely did dream I woke up back at home, in the strong arms I’d come to know so well. To depend on. How’s this possible? Aren’t they coming for me?
