Beth's fantastic tale
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56As Lisa gnawed through the raw kill, she relaxed and felt the wolf's presence truly take over. For the first time in weeks, she was completely comfortable and didn't feel grossed out by the raw meat. Ruben had hunted with her and taught her how to catch prey. They caught a deer together and were now munching on its flesh.
It was a remarkable place. A jagged mountain rose out of the forest, watching over a winding river and decent sized lake.'Were you raised here?' Lisa asked Ruben while padding through an interconnected cave system in the mountain.
He walked in front of her as a wolf and let out a laugh which was like a bark.
“I'm not that old, love. I was born in the same estate where the pack lives now. The caves were carved by the early settlers of the pack.”
“Well, you are 100, so kind of old,” she teased. “You sure you don't need a joint cream or something? “ She laughed.Related chapters
Bound to the Alpha The meeting
The vampires and the wolves were enclosed in one of the private rooms of the building. The room was completely soundproofed. There was an extra layer of static that surrounded the room. It ensured that the vampires and other supernaturals couldn't hear anything, and the conversations inside would the completely private. There were three werewolf council members, along with Ruben, Andrea, and Keith to represent the wolves. Three elders from the vampire council, Sebastian and a few other prominent vampires were representing the vampires.Everyone sat except for Ruben. He turned slowly, surveying the room, meeting all eyes. Few vampires were furious due to were and vampire mating. He didn't give a shit. There were bigger problems to solve.“As you all are aware, my pack is dealing with the dark wolves, Dorcas. I am thankful to my vampire friends who have helped us in the past,” he glanced at Sebastian,” and the help Marcus and Sebastian have given
Bound to the Alpha Lull before the storm ?
"Ruben, we need to talk," Andrea said quietly gesturing at him to proceed into the study. They had just returned from the meeting and she was aware that Ruben had been through torrents of emotions already today....they both had. Maybe talking about it tonight was the wrong thing to do but she had to get it out. Ruben entered the study, heading over to his favourite chair beside the fireplace. His thoughts were surprisingly calm considering everything that had happened today. Andrea took the seat opposite him.Ruben's face was carefully neutral. He always put that 'face' on when he was trying to work something out in his psyche, trying to be cautious about what he and how he said it."What do you want to talk about?" Ruben asked."Why won't you let me help you?""I have already mentioned, it's not safe. Dorcas is dangerous and with a demon involved. I would never forgive myself if something happened to you." Ruben frowned slig
Bound to the Alpha Danger
It was a quiet night at the bar. Andrea hated quiet nights. She wanted people around her, she wanted to soak it all in. Specifically now, after a week like this, she needed it. She wore the same dress she had worn when Sebastian and she made love for the first time. It always reminded her of him. But It was a waste. Everything was falling apart. She had prioritized pack over her mate. Ruben might try to strike a deal with the vampires, but it was going to be hard. Interspecies mating would be unacceptable.All her human employees were long gone. She had sent them home early, knowing she could handle the closing duties by herself. All the counters were wiped, the glasses washed, and the liquor was stocked. She grabbed her purse, ready to leave. She pulled out her phone. Ten messages from Sebastian. Her smile went slant. Not bothering to reply, she put her phone back and was about to walk out of the door when her phone rang. She frowned, recognizing the number.&ld
Bound to the Alpha Leaving the pack
4 hours earlier -Andrea's eyes opened accompanied by a head-splitting headache. She tried to get up but found that she could not move. Her eyes quickly adjusted to the darkness, she was in a cage? Inside a warehouse. She wasn't tied, so the first thing she did was try to break the cage. It didn't budge, It was made of silver alloy. The air smelled musty, mixed with the scent of wolves. It looked like she was underground, which explained why she couldn't contact Ruben. The sound of footsteps alerted her. Two men were approaching.She instantly recognized them. It was Flint and Dorcas. What was going on?She had never met Dorcas, but she knew it was him. His scent was so repulsive, it could have sent even the most hardened wolves running.“Good Morning, princess.” He gave her a charming smile.“What do you want?” She yelled.'Not you of course, sorry for the inconvenience but this was
Bound to the Alpha Betrayal
Lisa was terrified. But she drove on, denying to give in to the fear. She blocked off Ruben, refusing to let her terror paralyze her. She reached a nondescript building in the middle of nowhere. She prayed that she was at the appropriate place and not too late. It wasn't easy to navigate without her GPS. “Andrea? Mom? “ Lisa yelled rushing through the huge metal door. There was only one person in the big, dark hall. Broken furniture and some rusted electronic garbage were strewn around the place. She was surprised to see her mother casually sitting on a chair. Dorcas was nowhere to be found. “Mom! you're alright,” she said. Running towards her mom. She hugged her. “I was so worried. What happened? Where's Andrea? I'll get you out of here.” She didn't realize that her mother never hugged her back. She stayed still and smiled. “Hello, Lisa.” The cool voice churned Lisa's stomach. She turned to see Dorcas
Bound to the Alpha Captives
Ruben needed to stay focused as well as detached. He tried to keep himself busy. If he let himself stress the fact that his world was crumbling around him, he would waste precious time. He had felt her fear the moment she had left the safety of the compound. He had rushed over to look for her, but it was too late.He instantly knew Lisa was in trouble. She would never leave him, it must have been something sinister that was compelling enough for her to leave.It was then that Keith handed him Lisa's phone.He went to the text messages and pulled up the video of Andrea, tied down. The video made Ruben shudder. He could only imagine what Lisa felt when she saw it. His heart lurched for Andrea, his baby sister. She must have been terrified. It pained him that Lisa took this on all by herself. He banged his hand angrily on the table, crashing it into pieces. He would have helped her. Then he saw her mom in the footage.“He managed to get her mother as w
Bound to the Alpha The rescue operation begins
Lisa was woken up by the sound of moaning. Her eyes fluttered open as she ran to check on Andrea. She was stirring. Lisa's heart was filled with hope as well as anguish. Andrea's body had healed, though several deep bruises had remained. She wished she could undo the pain which Andrea had gone through. Dorcas had stopped the beatings and healed Andrea for what felt like the hundredth time, but probably was only the third time. Sometimes having quicker healing was a curse.“Lisa,” Andrea croaked. Her throat was parched and she could barely speak. Lisa rushed to grab a pitcher in the corner and touched it to Andrea's lips. The cool water felt like an elixir. Her one eye was still swollen shut, but she could see clearly in the dark.“Lisa, you shouldn't have come here,” Andrea whispered.“Shh, try not to talk,” Lisa communicated mentally. “Try not to give any reaction, Dorcas shouldn't know any
Bound to the Alpha Finally some clues
Mary walked up to the car and slid into the driver's seat. She felt free with each passing second. She had the cash, Lisa was gone from her life. That was what she wanted anyway. She hit the acceleration and drove off towards the highway. It didn't matter that she didn't have a place to go, she was finally free and ready to live her life again.Her mind wandered when she turned down the main road. She decided to drive until the gas tank was almost empty. She fantasized about her new life. The half a million dollars in the back seat were giving her an almost euphoric feeling. Mary was so distracted she almost didn't see the car ahead. It was parked sideways, blocking both lanes along the forested road. Mary slowed down. As she drew closer, she saw a man leaning back against the vehicle. This was unexpected. Mary put her car into park and stepped out.“Why have you blocked the road ?” Mary asked.The man didn't reply,

Bound to the Alpha The end for now
There werewolves and vampires in the room. Lisa's scarlet dress clung to her figure snugly, making her appear more shapely. Ruben spun her across the dance floor, bringing her through unfamiliar moves. She admired the way he made it appear as though she knew what she was doing. She felt a sting as his gaze shifted away from hers. Everyone kept reminding her that this night was all about her, but it was also partly about him. He was her mate, and she had been increasingly aware since the transformation that it was in his nature to desire the best for her and the pack. He wanted to talk business with the Alphas of the other packs because he was surrounded by them, but he was stuck with her. "So, who is the blue-shirted gentleman?" Lisa inquired. Ruben answered with a deep growl that she wouldn't have heard a few weeks before. He was still a little possessive of her. Ruben said, "Lucian. He's the Crimson Shadow Pack's Alpha. They are from Florida. We don
Bound to the Alpha New mates
The pack was standing together in a circle. Beth and those who had died in the battle were honoured with a brief memorial service.Lisa approached Andrea, who was solemnly observing the happenings. Andrea was depressed, she could tell. She was reminiscing about Elizabeth, small details like how the old wolf made up stories."She loved you. She expressed her gratitude for being such a nice friend." Lisa said.Andrea turned around and looked at her with a puzzled expression."I met her after I was put into a coma. It felt like a dream, yet I believe she came to see me."Andrea stifled a sob as she continued, "I miss her."Lisa took her hand in hers and gently squeezed it. "We all miss her. She claimed, however, that she had a good life and wished to be free. We should probably be happy for her. And most of her stories were made up. But you already know that right?"Andrea gave her a friendly grin and a nod.*************
Bound to the Alpha Union and Separation
Sebastian had been bothered by something, so he patiently waited for the meeting to end before scooting over to Ruben and his companion."Ruben, when you say I'm now a member of the pack, do you mean I have to obey you like your dogs?" He roared, his rage erupting in waves. Andrea was rolling her eyes and trying not to giggle as he turned to face her."Whatever gave you that idea, Sebastian?" she asked softly, her arms slipping around his shoulders."Alphas don't give ridiculous orders every five minutes. That is not my objective." Ruben said, amusingly, he understood vampire-wolf mating would be difficult. Vampires were fiercely self-reliant and thrived in their seclusion. Wolves, on the other hand, were devoted to their packs and could not survive without them."Excuse my scepticism, but what exactly do you mean by being a part of the pack?"Sebastian asked sarcastically."It was the quickest means to show my pa
Bound to the Alpha Vampires and Wolves
Lisa's chest rose and fell in front of Ruben's eyes. He knew she was his, but he wasn't sure if she realised he belonged to her as well. He carefully lifted her shoulders and climbed out from beneath her when the doorbell rang. On the other side, he was not surprised to see Serena."How is she doing?""Sleeping," he explained.Serena responded, "The last thing that girl needs is more sleep."Ruben stated, "She is alive. Don't think I'm unaware of my good fortune. That's the only thing that matters.""Can you tell me what she remembers?" Serena inquired.Ruben said, "Not much. However, she recalls her mother's or rather her aunt's betrayal.""Mary is still imprisoned among us. What are your plans for her?" Serena enquired."Kill her," Ruben stated emphatically.Serena's pupils dilated."Lisa?""Lisa is unconcerned about my decision. And she has no desire to know."Serena smiled and n
Bound to the Alpha Back with her mate
Lisa apologised, "I'm sorry, I don't understand." "Can you tell me what you remember?" Beth inquired. "I recall feeling like I was being sucked into an abyss. I had no sensations. I only saw darkness everywhere, punctuated by agonising screaming." As she described her ordeal, Lisa trembled. "Well, he came close to catching you. Until I arrived and expelled him." Beth remarked. "Are you....dead?" Beth burst out laughing. "Nobody ever dies; they only pass into another realm. Reincarnate into a new body after bidding their time. You offered me the freedom I so sorely desired but couldn't achieve on my own. It can be tiresome to live a long life. Don't be concerned about me. I'm fine." Lisa blinked, unsure of what she was seeing. Then she spotted Beth's red hair, which was identical to hers. "I am your one-in-a-million grandaunt," Beth explained. "What
Bound to the Alpha Waking up
It had been a week and a half. Ten days since everything had ended. Andrea stood in the doorway of the clinic, watching Ruben gently lower his sleeping mate onto her bed. With a profound frown on his face, he covered her and then looked down at her.Sebastian muttered gently from behind her, "Hey," and she knew exactly what he wanted to hear, but she didn't believe it was the best time.He started to add, "Andrea, she'll be OK..." but her head swung around and his deep blue eyes pierced into her green ones. She groaned and walked down the corridor to a bench to sit.She said calmly, "Lisa was fatally injured. Beth is still missing, and I believe it's all my fault."Sebastian was stiff, his rage pouring out in waves, yet when he spoke again, his tone was soothing. "That is not the case. Even you were on the verge of passing away. Dorcas' use of you as bait was not your fault."Andrea bit her lower lip and swallowed."I miss Beth b
Bound to the Alpha It's finally over
Dorcas got the chance to hit Ruben on his shoulder. Ruben was not anticipating the action and was jerked away, slamming into the far tree. The wind was knocked out of him, and he was gasping for breath.“Clever dog,” Dorcas said.Ruben started to stand up, but felt a hand around his neck, lifting him in the air. He knew that Dorcas could beat him on brute strength, and he needed to think fast. He put his hands against the tree trunk and brought his knees to his chest, using all his force to shove them in Dorcas's chest. It worked and he was released.Taking advantage of the rain, he threw a fist and connected with Dorcas's face. He fell to the ground and Ruben started to kick him. It didn't take long for Dorcas to grab hold of his foot and flip Ruben down on his back. Ruben was on the ground looking up at the monster.“That wasn't very nice,” Dorcas roared.Dorcas darted away with speed, b
Bound to the Alpha A life is saved
Trent was tearing through the maze of dark wolves, his heart pounded so loudly it was all he could hear through the rain and screams. A wolf was suddenly whirling towards him. He positioned himself to take on him when the wolf was suddenly sliced in half and thrown aside.“Serena!” Her name sounded as if it came from a distance, even though it had been directed from his lips. He watched as her body flew through the air, her top wet with rain and blood.“Thanks !” He said.She nodded, "where is Ruben?” She asked.His brain finally connected with what was happening.“I… I am not sure,” he replied, still in awe. Serena had saved his life!“Ruben, where are you !” She almost wept with relief as Ruben's alert mental voice answered her.Her mate knew instantly that something was wrong and didn't stop to
Bound to the Alpha Race to save
Andrea felt herself falling, heard Lisa's scream. She knew she was going to die. Ruben would go insane with grief if she did. And Sebastian, well, she was terrified for her vampire. Maybe once their mate bond was gone he would go back to living his normal life. Lisa screamed and caught Andrea as she fell. She had seconds to catch her, a very few precious seconds. She reached out, forcing her tired body to move faster than she'd ever moved before. She had no idea where Ruben was, and she didn't care. Her hand caught Andrea's outstretched arm, she pulled hard, wincing as she felt her shoulder dislocate. She managed to slide her body beneath her friend a split second before they hit the ground. She attempted to cushion most of the impact, to keep Andrea protected in her firm embrace, but she heard the other woman cry out in pain and knew that she was badly hurt. “Why did you do that ?” She screamed at Dorcas,” I said I was ready to cooperate.” “She
