Carolina's pov

Together. The promise hung in the air between us like a pact forged in uncertainty and bravery. As Zane continued to lay out his plans, my mind raced with potential strategies. We needed another way to gather intel without tipping our hand, to find allies who would stand with us against Zane’s burgeoning tyranny.

I strained to catch every word Zane spoke, knowing that the details could be the key to unraveling his ambitions. “I’ll have eyes everywhere,” he declared, his voice low and dangerous. “Once I crush the defiance, no one will dare challenge my rule again.”

Fear surged within me, but it didn’t steal my resolve. Craig needed to know everything, not just for himself, but to safeguard everyone who could potentially fall victim to Zane’s ruthless grip.

“Listen,” I murmured, focusing on Zane’s words. “He’s talking about exerting control over the neighboring packs, but there’s more. He mentioned spies. We need to learn who they are; if we can reach out to any in the

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    Igniting the flame

    Avery's POV The night was deeper than usual, the moon casting a silvery glow through the sheer curtains of our room in the pack house. The wooden walls around us vibrated with the distant sounds of laughter and music from the pack gathering outside, but all I could focus on was the overwhelming presence beside me—Alpha Zane. My love. He sat at the edge of the bed, his body tense with barely-contained energy, his eyes glowing with desire as they met mine. We had been mated for a few weeks now, our bond cemented with the ritual that marked us as each other's. Our connection was more profound than anything I’d ever known, but still, there were moments when it felt like the world outside intruded on what we had.“Can you hear them?” Zane’s voice was low, throaty, as he raked a hand through his hair, the tendrils of darkness falling into his eyes. “They’re having fun without us.”I nodded, even though my focus was entirely on him. “It’s just a party. We can join them later.” I got up fro

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    Love

    Avery's POV The universe collapsed around us, and all that remained was the intoxicating heat of our shared moment. Each thrust sent ripples of pleasure surging through me, and I could feel the tension coiling tighter, ready to snap at any moment. Zane’s sapphire eyes were locked onto mine, the depths of his gaze filled with a mix of love and primal desire that drove me wild. “More,” I gasped, my nails digging into his shoulders as I urged him to heighten the intensity. With every movement, he took me closer to the edge, the rhythm of our bodies synchronizing seamlessly. It felt as if the very air vibrated with our connection, swirling between us like a storm, wild and uncontainable.Zane responded to my plea, quickening his pace, and I could feel the pressure build within me, gathering in a delicious swell that threatened to consume everything else. The heady combination of his scent, the sound of his breathing, and the look of pure, unadulterated desire on his face was intoxicatin

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    All Zanes’s

    Avery's POV The warmth of his voice wrapped around me like a soft blanket, and I couldn't help but smile back, feeling a rush of affection swell within me. We remained nestled together, the chaotic world outside forgotten as we took a moment to simply breathe and absorb the reality of what we had just shared.The distant sounds of the pack, once a steady thrum in the background, began to slowly seep back into my awareness. Conversations, laughter, and the sounds of nature blended into an orchestral hum that reminded me of the life we were a part of, the community that surrounded us and the future that awaited beyond this intimate bubble."Are they waiting for us?" I asked, feeling a hint of reluctance at the thought of pulling away from this cocoon of intimacy. Zane chuckled softly, his breath warm against my cheek. "They can wait a little longer. This moment is ours." He pressed a tender kiss to my forehead, his fingers trailing gently through my hair. The possessiveness in his to

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    Thinking out loud

    Carolina’s POV The moon poured its silver light through my bedroom window, casting long shadows across the floor as I sat curled up on my bed, lost in thought. The world outside was quiet, but within me, a storm raged. It had been three long, agonizing days since I had seen Craig, and the ache of his absence was a constant reminder of the stakes we faced. I could almost hear his laughter, the way it filled a room, magnetic and comforting, but now it was silenced, swallowed by the monstrous shadow of Alpha Zane and Avery’s tyranny.I pulled my knees to my chest, the fabric of my blankets bunched tightly against me, as if they could shield me from my simmering anger. They acted like Craig had never existed, like he was nothing more than a shadow flitting through their self-obsessed lives. I could see them together, laughing at their newfound power—Zane’s arrogance was a palpable force, and Avery’s approval of his cruelty only stoked the fire of my resentment. The two of them made a per

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    Deep thoughts

    Carolina's pov The darkness outside my window seemed to thrum with a pulse of its own, echoing the fierce determination ignited within me. Every shadow held a promise—a whisper of rebellion waiting to be unleashed. I had spent too long in the grip of fear and helplessness, and now it was time to transform that energy into something powerful, something unstoppable. With my notebook open once more, I began to outline a plan. First, I needed to assess my assets within the pack. I had seen glimmers of dissent—members who, like me, were chipped away by Zane's heavy hand. There was Marcus, a fighter at heart, whose loyalty to Craig ran deep. He had always been just beneath the surface of the alpha's cruel regime, and I sensed his anger boiling under the skin. Then there was Lila, a quiet but sharp-eyed observer who often caught glimpses of Zane’s true nature even when others ignored it. Together, they could form the core of a rebellion. I also needed to be subtle. Zane had ears everywher

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    Good morning

    Avery's POV I felt sick, the moment I opened my eyes and saw the streaming light coming in from the open curtains that Zane must have forgotten to close when he came to bed last night. I rubbed my eyes and stretched as I yawned. Glancing over, I was surprised to see Zane's side of the bed was empty. Where was he? I didn't recall him getting up and leaving. I must have been so exhausted last night. I decided to go and have a nice long soak in the bath before I would attempt to go and find Zane, I was sure that he was just pottering around dealing with business around the pack. Humming a soft tune to myself, I smiled as I turned on the taps and stripped off. The warm water enveloped me like a comforting embrace as I sank into the tub, letting out a quiet sigh of relief. I closed my eyes for a moment, feeling the tension of the past few days slowly melt away with each ripple of the water. The steam curled around me, and I allowed my thoughts to drift—memories of our last fiery encount

  • Bound To My Alpha Mate    Not everything can be built on lies

    Carolina's POV I listened as Alpha Zane continued to plaster his love for Avery. A small smirked played on my face as I recalled Craig and how he would soon be showing Alpha Zane and Avery a few home truths that would certainly dampen their so called love for each other. “Hey Carolina whats going on?” I looked up and saw Tricia sneakimh up behind me and growled at her. She was always following me lately and wanting to know what I was il too. Not that I was going to give her anything to gossip about. Craig was my secret and it felt special that he had chosen me to keep his secret. Tricia would only go and squeal on me to the alpha and his precious Luna. I put my hands on my hips and pressed my lips together. “What is it to you?” I raised my eyebrows and glared at her. She flinched at my tone and scratched the back of her head. “Oh, I was just wondering. You just seem different lately.” she admitted nervously shifting from one foot to the other. other, her gaze wavering as if

    Alpha Zane’s POV I watched as Carolina bounded back into the pack’s main grounds with a smile on her face, it was the first time that I had seen her smile that much in a long time. In fact I couldn’t remember the last time I saw her that happy. I felt suspicious and decided to keep my eyes on her more lately. I wondered what she was up to but Avery distracted me with hand snaking around me. I knew it was her without even looking. Ever since I had announced her as my mate and Luna, I couldn’t believe how lucky I was to have her. She was beautiful, stunning and a gift from the moon goodness. I would never let anyone hurt her and I made that promise to her. “Hello, my love and what are you doing out here all alone?” Avery wanted to know as I turned around to kiss her on the tip of her nose. She giggled as she wrapped her arms tighter around me, it was as if we were in our own little bubble, our own world away from normal day to day life. I wanted to melt away in her clutches and neve

    Avery’s POV Alpha Zane? Luna Avery?” a gentle knock on the door brought us back from our own little world and I could feel Zane’s irritation as he curled his tongue and tutted. “And what is the problem now?” he wrenched open the door to reveal Dominic standing the other side looking hot and flustered from running. I frowned wondering what was going on. Pulling myself up from the bed, I sauntered over to the door and gently touched my mate on the arm soothing his anger almost instantly. “What is the problem?” I looked up at the mighty warrior with kind eyes. He bowed to me and looked slightly more relaxed. Zane sighed and rolled his eyes, I knew he wanted me to himself but something was going on otherwise we would not have been interrupted. “Its Carolina.” he finally uttered. “Carolina?” I exclaimed, a shiver ran down my spine. “What about her? Have you found her?” Zane demanded to know but Dominic shook his head. “Unfortunately not. But, we found this and if sends us into the d

    Avery's pov The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm golden glow through our shared living space. Shadows danced across the walls as Zane and I sat on the couch, a pile of name suggestion lists and baby books precariously stacked on the coffee table. The excitement from our earlier conversation still buzzed in the air.“Alright,” Zane said, flipping through a book filled with names. “What do you think of these?” He pointed to a few options, reading them aloud dramatically, “How about ‘Gideon’ or ‘Ariana’?” I rolled my eyes playfully. “You know, I have to veto ‘Gideon’ right off the bat. It sounds like a character in a bad sci-fi movie.”“Alright, alright. No Gideon,” he chuckled, jotting it down as a no-go. “What about ‘Zara’? It’s strong, like you.”My heart warmed at his compliment, but a small part of me hesitated. “Zara is pretty, but it feels almost… too trendy? I’d want something with a bit of history.”“Fair point,” he replied, his pencil tapping thoughtfully against

    Avery's Pov The warmth of his embrace eased the flutter of nerves in my stomach. With Zane's arms around me, I felt a mix of safety and excitement. It was like standing on the edge of a cliff, peering into the unknown—terrifying but exhilarating all at once. "Have you thought about names?" he asked, pulling back just enough to look into my eyes, a spark of playful curiosity igniting his features. I laughed, the sound bubbling up like a burst of sunshine through clouds. "Maybe it's a bit too early for that, don't you think?” “Not at all,” he replied, his grin widening. “We can brainstorm! I mean, we have to be ready for the baby name book, right?” A new wave of amusement washed over me, and I couldn’t help but picture ourselves poring over names together. “Okay, if we’re doing this, I need to include your criteria for names,” I teased. “What constitutes a ‘Zane-approved’ name?” He pretended to ponder for a moment, placing his hand on his chin thoughtfully. “It has to be strong an

    Avery's POVThe truth hung in the air, thick and heavy, as the reality of Kendra’s words crashed over us. I was pregnant. The phrase echoed in my mind, a blend of disbelief and a rush of emotions that felt almost overwhelming. Joy, fear, excitement, and anxiety erupted within me, a chaotic storm swirling in my chest.Zane’s arm tightened around my shoulders, grounding me as my thoughts spiraled. He captured my gaze, his eyes shimmering with a mixture of emotions that mirrored my own. In that moment, the world outside lost its significance, and all that mattered was us—what we had created together. “I—” I struggled to articulate my thoughts, words tumbling over one another in my mind. “What do we do now?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, as I searched his expression for answers.“We figure it out together,” Zane replied, his voice steady but laced with emotion. “We take it one step at a time.” There wasn’t a hint of doubt in his demeanor, and as the gravity of my situation sa

    Avery’s POV A heavy silence settled around us, punctuated only by the ticking clock on the wall and the soft rustle of packaging as Kendra set up the pregnancy test. Time felt suspended, each second stretching into eternity. My heart raced, caught between fear and anticipation, while my mind churned with unanswered questions. Zane’s presence was a steadying force beside me. His hand remained entwined with mine, his thumb tracing soothing circles on my palm. I wanted to focus on the comfort of his touch, but the enormity of what was about to happen loomed large in my thoughts. “What if I’m not ready for this?” I repeated, more to myself than to him, the thought echoing like a haunting melody. “Avery, nobody is ever fully ready,” Zane replied, his voice a low rumble of support. “But we’ll figure it out together. Whatever this result is, we’ll tackle it as a team." His unwavering confidence was soothing, yet my own doubts antagonized me. I didn’t want to let fear dictate my life, bu

    Craig’s POV As Delilah led the way through the thicket, I kept a vigilant eye on our surroundings, scanning for any signs of danger the moment we stepped away from the safety of our temporary haven. I could feel my pulse pounding in my ears, each beat echoing the urgency of our situation.“Where exactly are we going?” I whispered to Delilah as we navigated the dense undergrowth, branches snagging at my clothes as if they were trying to hold me back from the path ahead.“To the old hunting lodge,” she answered quickly, darting glances behind us. “It’s abandoned, but it should be worn enough that no one is likely to search it.”“We can’t stay there long,” I warned, my gut twisted with the knowledge that time was not on our side. “What if they track us?”“They might, but the longer we stay away from Alpha Zane’s territory, the better. They’ll be searching for you, no doubt. We need to throw them off your trail.” That thought should have reassured me, but instead, fear twisted tighter i

    Zane’s grip on my hand tightened as he considered my question, his brow furrowing under the weight of uncertainty. “Then we take it one step at a time, just like Kendra said,” he replied softly, his voice steady despite the turmoil in the air. “We’ll talk about it. We’ll figure it out together. No matter what.”His confidence was both comforting and terrifying. I opened my eyes and met his gaze, searching for reassurance amidst the chaos of my thoughts. “But what if I’m not ready for this, Zane?” My voice trembled as I spoke, fear and vulnerability tumbling forth like a flood. “What if I can’t be the person that a baby needs?”Zane’s expression softened, compassion radiating from him. “Avery, none of us are ever fully ready for things like this. Life throws us challenges, and we just adapt. You’re strong; I've seen you face things that would break others. Plus, you wouldn’t be doing this alone.” I felt a spark of warmth at his words, but doubt still lingered. “And what about you? Are

    Avery's POV As I gazed into Zane’s eyes, a warm afterglow surrounded us, melting away the remnants of our earlier conflict. But as that sense of connection enveloped me, I felt a sudden wave of nausea crash over me. A bead of cold sweat trickled down my back as I pulled away from Zane, the world around me beginning to spin.“Um, I—” I stammered, my voice faltering. “I think I need to sit down for a—”Before I could finish my sentence, the room tilted precariously, and I stumbled, clutching my stomach. Panic surged through me as I rushed to the side, barely making it to the bathroom just in time. I barely managed to turn on the light before the contents of my stomach surged forth, heaving violently as dry heaves followed. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes, more from the shock than the physical discomfort.“Avery!” Zane called out, his voice echoing with alarm just outside the door. I could hear his footsteps rushing in my direction.The door swung open, and I looked up to see hi

    Avery's POV“I understand more than you think,” I said, matching his intensity with my own. “But I refuse to let that weight crush my spirit—or my ability to fight for it.”“For once, can’t you just trust that I know what’s best?” he demanded, his voice thick with emotion. “Trust goes both ways, Zane,” I countered, my heart pounding in my chest. “If I can’t trust you to hear me out, if I can’t have a say in our direction, then I might as well be standing alone in this fight.”“Fine then!” Zane thundered, his frustration spilling over as he turned away from me, fuming under the pressure of our conversation. “If you want to defy me, I will take actions necessary to ensure you’re safe, even if it means locking you in here.”My breath hitched in my throat, anger flaring once again. “Are you really willing to go that far? To actually isolate me from everything and everyone?”“Maybe I need to!” he snapped, but his voice faltered as he saw my expression. “Avery, I don’t want to—but you leav
