Our newest conquest in the Flowing Waters territory was very successful. The son of the Beta actually gave us the intel to take down the pack and brought many wolves over with him. This included almost half of his former pack's warriors. Though this only amounted to a dozen, they were well trained and supplied droves of information on nearby packs that have already proven useful to our cause.
I can tell Teddy will prove to be a valuable member of our group. He understands our cause better than most, having been under the thumb of a stubborn Alpha and his insipid daughter his whole life. When they were kids, the Alpha and Beta expected their kids would end up mates and Teddy would take over the pack. However, when both of them came of age and neither found their mate, this plan was abruptly abandoned and his Alpha decided to try and find his daughte

PatrickPatrick’s indignation upon waking up into his new circumstances was indescribable. Not only did he find out his weak, pathetic wolf had nearly killed him and would have to be given freedoms to pacify it, but he was going to be forced to remain near his twin at all times until the situation was resolved. He wouldn’t have believed it at all when the doctors filled in what happened, but his mother reluctantly confirmed the situation to him when they left the room. She even added that Trajan was the one who saved him which is why they were making the rule about being near Moira.He still struggled to come to terms with it and argued that Moira had caused his problem by trying to manipulate him into accepting her as his Alpha and forcing Colm into his behavior. His mother looked angry at this revelation and told him that the situation in
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 92: New Reality
NarratorPatrick tried to keep away from Troi as much as he could during the earliest stages of his recovery. In the hospital he could always pretend to be tired if he didn’t want to interact and Troi would leave his room. Usually they spent time visiting with other patients or assisting with the volunteer work instead of hovering around him. He was thankful for this until he heard some of the nurses discussing how impressed they were with Troi’s interactions with some of the younger child patients. Listening to all of the gushing over his twin caused another episode they needed to save him from which ended up making him more melancholy.After almost a week he was free to return home, but was not able to go back to school yet. While he had gone several days without an episode and had started being able to shift more easily, Colm would still
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 93: The Search
TroiThe sun came up, and we couldn't smell our mate. We showered and dressed and we couldn't smell our mate. There was no mate in the kitchen or dining room or on the way to school. No mate rode with us on the bus.People spoke but we didn't listen.We walked every hallway and went through every building before going to our first class. Finally we had to accept there was no mate at school. We sat through our classes but couldn't focus. We didn't eat lunch or go to Judo practice after school.All throughout the day, random people would come up really close to us to try and get us to catch their scent. Ever since we were named heir to the Alpha of Grey Peak, people had been going out of their way to get our attention and suck up. Now it was worse as they tried to
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 94: Reconnaissance
EnvyI couldn't find fault with the security surrounding Grey Peak. Their preparations started on the border of High Valley with checks there and then again as we crossed into the Grey Peak territory. Inside there we had several more stops and directions down different roads as we were guided to a lodge or inn outside of their residential area. It must be used often for guests as the rooms were modern and well appointed with plenty of staff to assist visitors.Teddy and I had a two bedroom suite to ourselves and were told our “guard” would be staying in the barracks on the lowest floor and could be summoned through a bell system in our front room. There were large windows and a balcony outside the main room. The she-wolf who brought us to our quarters offered to bring up a late dinner or draw baths for us as we got settled in. We accepted h
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 95: Periphery
TroiWe couldn't move fast enough to get out from between Patrick and his mate. As we jumped aside, she stepped forward and slowly reached for him. He stood and took her hand gently, never breaking eye contact. There was a feeling of electricity between the two as they just stood and stared.She was about average height for a she-wolf and stood eye-to-eye with Patrick. She wasn't dressed like many of the other ladies in attendance. Many were dripping with jewels and had elaborate hairstyles and clearly spent tons on their dresses. She wore a simple dress that suited her well and her hair was in a pretty, twisted bun.We hoped these were good signs. Maybe she could help ground Patrick and encourage him to bond with Colm. Maybe she wouldn't be all tied up in expectations like our mother's and could help him b
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 96: The Morning After
PatrickI was so glad to be out of school the morning after my birthday party. As soon as I found Trisha, I couldn't imagine being away from her for a few hours, much less an entire day. Luckily mother planned ahead and had one of the guest suites ready for her. We were able to talk late into the night before I showed her around the packhouse and said goodnight. She was one floor below me, but it felt like miles as I made my way up to my own room.I couldn't sleep with all the excitement over her being so near and got up a few times to go to her room, but stopped myself before I made it out the door. As soon as the sun was up, I rushed down to escort her to breakfast. She must have had a long night too since she was already up and dressed when I knocked.She looked just as amazing in her regular clothes and
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 97: Scents
TroiOn our walk to the packhouse after school, we told the others to watch what they said in front of the guests, including Trisha. While she was our brother's mate, from what we knew she may be the sole child of an unknown Alpha. Our brother's future role within this pack was already questionable since he remained reluctant to work with us. With the possibility of him being needed to lead another pack, we should keep our own pack details away from the Flowing Waters pack members.Patrick had kept himself out of our business and Dad said he'd been avoiding any Alpha affairs just as much as before the announcement. When he first started staying home, we were slightly concerned that Mother would make sure his time would be spent working to undermine our role with Dad and the leaders. It ended up being unfounded as he'd kept to himself aside from times w
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 98: Flowing Waters
Alpha DarrenThe clock struck six and I realized I hadn’t even had lunch. Everything today seemed to have run together and taken far too long. I had hoped to get to spend lunch with Patrick and his new mate, but Fallon wanted some alone time with them. I still went running with Colm while Fallon stayed with his mate and her packmates, but we didn’t get a chance to speak with Colm behaving as agitated as he was being away from his unmarked mate.Colm was still not reaching out to Patrick. I could tell that Patrick could read his agitation, but I think he dismissed it as Colm wanting to mate and mark Trisha. Really the wolf didn’t like her being out of his sight and wanted to be there to protect her more than anything, but he just wasn’t relaying that information. The fact that Patrick left her with two unmated males actually surp

Alpha of the Peak Chapter 108: Horizons
RichBy the time we had finished handing everything over to Patrick, Trisha, and their group, Troi was long gone from the pack house. Even their scent was growing faint as Claud tracked them through the forest and up towards some of the overhangs. It was well past dark when he finally found more than a wisp of them and was able to hone in on their location.As he got closer I realized where they were. It was the overhang where we found the phoenix feathers as kids. Sure enough, they were sitting on that ledge looking out into the distance. They were so focused, they didn’t even acknowledge Claud’s approach. I shifted back and put on the clothes he’d carried before climbing up beside them.They still didn’t act as if they noticed anyone else here. I tried to wait, but eventually grew
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 107: Twin Alphas
Alpha DarrenWith the discovery of survivors, the path forward seemed much more navigable than when we were dealing with a pack that had been entirely destroyed. As Teddy and his uncle spoke it was like watching fog clear from everyone in the room. When he mentioned Trisha finding her mate the relief from the other end of the line seemed to turn to excitement. That was the moment I realized what that actually meant.While Fallon had planned for numerous outcomes from the party she threw the kids to help find their mates, I don’t think she actually considered the possibility that Patrick may be mated to the sole heir of an Alpha. For any pack with no one in line to inherit, having their child mated to the offspring of an Alpha was a clear path forward and made the succession very easy. From what Fallon has said, Trisha was not raised to lead her p
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 106: Survivors
XXXThe group making their way through Flowing Waters was taking ages. I understand their caution, but we have already been out here for a day waiting for their arrival. I had to hope they would investigate the house enough to find the message we left behind for them to discover. If they did not take the time, we would need to attract their attention enough to be discovered but still not be seen as a threat. That would be far more challenging and may even backfire if everyone doesn’t play their parts right.Luckily they were as thorough as I expected and one of the ones investigating the pack house did uncover the message we left. I had the scout who was watching them cut contact at that point and made sure everyone in the cavernous hideout was ready to put on a show. These warriors would be easy. They were already going to be sympathetic, as lon
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 105: In Flowing Waters
TroiWe weren’t taking any chances with our guests until we had people reporting back from Flowing Waters everything they found. Our warriors reported that Trisha and Teddy stayed away from the rest of the pack and basically in a few rooms of the packhouse over the next few days. The only time the three weren't with him was when he went for his runs with dad. Then they'd stay together wherever he left them until he returned. When he did, the boys would bail while he and Trisha spent time together.The warriors who followed the boys reported that Teddy sometimes made brief phone calls. Usually that evening or the day after he would report something to the leaders. Dad wouldn't let us work with Tyko to listen in on his conversation. He still doesn't fully believe us that there is something suspicious about the wolves from Flowing Waters worth being
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 104: Tread Lightly
EnvyEverything clicked into place as Patrick spoke. His sister’s deeper voice when we were in the room upstairs definitely struck a nerve and I realized now she was the one taunting us after the failed High Valley assault. It also explained the way she was included at a critical level in the discussions of possible attacks on packs, though with twins it was possible they would both have a role in running the pack. Even knowing his sister’s ferocity and backing, I couldn’t help but be a little excited. We had found our way in to get through the pack defenses at Grey Peak and probably High Valley.I laid the groundwork for getting him away from the pack with the lure of power of his own. I could feel Strigga’s discomfort at our manipulation of our mate, but I made her understand he would be joining us in the end. If we told him t
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 103: Coming Clean
PatrickIt was hard to know how to help Envy with everything going on. I was slightly glad we had not completed the marking process. I only occasionally got pangs of stress from her instead of the full blown grief she was clearly under. Moira’s suggestion that Envy stay in my room was completely shocking, but I later realized she must have said that just to get us out of her hair and annoy Mother all at once. Mother was entirely opposed to us staying there together alone, but didn’t want to push the issue openly where others would wonder why. Then she may have to admit she was worried about Colm or pretend she was against us completing the mate-bond for some reason. Either of which would also have benefitted Moira so it was really a win-win for her to make the suggestion.It worked for us. While we didn’t mark each other, we were able
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 102: Breaking Fast
TeddyCaleb’s quick thinking following Patrick’s sister and her friends seems to have paid off. I was able to call and warn our Boss and work out a plan quickly. The rogues torched the pack buildings and burned the bodies after the attack, so all evidence would be untraceable. By the time anyone went to investigate, everyone’s scents would have been wiped clean. He got off the phone with me and I deleted the log of the call. I continued the path I walked and turned towards the training fields. Exactly five minutes later he had one of the guys who joined up with me from Flowing Waters call me. In the brief call, he filled me in on happenings at the base while I acted as if I found out the world ended.I looked up dramatically before running toward the training field to find any leader really. It lucked out that the Beta was there and I
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 101: Support Structure
RichAs if the whole issue with Patrick finding his mate wasn’t enough, now Troi was having to deal with what looked like a war against packs and a potential spy or assassin inside ours. They’ve pushed themselves hard since we all were presented to the pack. Basically doing double duty here and High Valley as well as school activities and warrior training. They started to seem more on edge once people in our friend group started finding mates. It got even worse when their dad named them heir and Patrick got sick and they had even more to deal with. I was waiting for them to snap and I could see the moment it was about to happen.When they began to bulk up and I could see Trajan pushing forward, I knew they had reached a breaking point. I couldn’t tell if it was the news of all the attacks or something with Patrick’s mate or thei
Alpha of the Peak Chapter 100: Suspicions
TroiWhen Trisha pulled away she shot an embarrassed and scared glance at the everyone present that caused Mother to burst into tears and pull her into a bone crushing hug. Even Dad went over to mutter words of support and how we’d do everything we could to help and that he had the best warriors already on it and had rallied allies. Patrick kept in physical contact with his mate the whole time and pulled her back into his chest as soon as Mother released her. Trisha’s eyes were red, but we noticed that there were no signs of tears on her face, Patrick’s shirt, or Mother’s shoulder.Something about this whole situation felt wrong. Teddy said he got a call from a friend at his pack who said that something had happened. But that was only a couple of hours ago at this point and the coven’s scrying showed that the attack was fa
