Dale’s POV

Amber’s body was a map of wounds, bruises, and scars. The horrified expression on Janine’s face confirmed just how bad I thought it was.

The scars did not look like they had been treated by a professional, and so they did not heal correctly.

I glanced at Janine, whose eyes were settled on me. She knew I was struggling to hold my wolf together, and I could see her readying herself to hold me back if it came to it.

“Who did this to you?” I growled, unable to keep the pain my wolf felt out of my voice.

“Tell me who did this to you!”‘And let me tear them apart, limb by limb.’ my wolf added. Amber fumbled with her dress, pulling it tightly against her lean frame. She was looking everywhere but at me and Janine. Even Janine looked short of words, and I did not blame her. Neither of us had seen something so terrible before.

“Amber!” I demanded. “Speak, or I will pry the words from you myself.

Was it Derrick? Lydia? Who exactly did this to you?My fist came down hard, st

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Live Only In The Moment

    Amber’s POV As soon as the office cleared out, Alpha Dale approached me, pulling me in for a hug as he planted a kiss on my head. “How are you and the baby?” he whispered, reaching down to press his head to my belly. I shrugged. “Janine said we’re both healthy and there was no cause to worry. I’m getting close to the end of my first trimester so we’re kind of out of the danger zone.” I didn’t add the fact that she wanted me to take things easy, at least for now. Being able to help Alpha Dale and the rest of my friends anyway I could was something I didn’t want to take lightly. Besides, she already assured me that neither the baby or me were at any risk and that there was no cause to worry. If I told Alpha Dale anything, he’d only push things out of proportions and I didn’t want that. Alpha Dale was doing all he could even now that the battle was over, the least I could do was support him through that. While I’d rather we spent all our time lazing around in our bedroom, we still

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Precious,Little Moments

    Amber’s POV The days following our victory over Derrick was what I will define as boring, and aimless. Many of us were struggling to find our place around the city now that we no longer had to fight or think of threats lurking in the shadows. Me especially. And it was worse because Alpha Dale was still very busy dealing with the aftermath of the battle. I hadn’t spoken with him properly since we returned from battling Derrick, other than the sex we had the night we both returned. Alpha Dale tried to check in from time to time, but it was more like a moment to bask in each other, and not really a check in. I missed him a lot. But it wasn’t something I could do anything about. So, I spent the afternoon helping Janine organize the mess that was in her office. She was still very occupied with patients from the battle so I didn’t see much of her either. But at least I had something to distract me while I waited for my mate. When I finally finished from her office, I returned to the

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Finding Normalcy

    Amber’s POV I woke up alone in bed. Alpha Dale was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window looking out at the lake outside which was now almost entirely covered by morning dew. I took a minute to admire is perfectly sculpted body, reveling in the fact that this perfect, hot male was all mine. I wanted to stay in bed longer but I knew that was going to be impossible. Now that we were done with revolutionary and Derrick’s bullshit, we needed to sort out our lives. I moved towards Alpha Dale like a moth was drawn to flame and circled my small arms around his waist. He leaned into me immediately, nuzzling my cheek. He turned around with my hands around him so that chest was pressing mine and his hand came up to frame my face. “I’ve waited so long for this day/ The day when we will have no worries, no threats to deal with. Just me and you living through each day and making each other happy.” I felt that way too. Like some sort of relief was flooding through me. It was as if I had be

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   The End Of War

    Amber’s POV Alpha Dale looked like an incarnate of death himself as he stood there just after shifting back to his human form. “You cannot kill me. You know you can’t. I will win this fight and, in the end, everything will be mine. I have worked too hard for everything to end like this. That goddess should have been born to me. She should be mine. Alpha Dale squatted in front of Derrick. “You are right, I cannot kill you. No, after everything that you’ve done, killing you will be too much of a mercy. I will make you scream and all your victims will watch.” Derrick’s mouth opened wide, flapping like a fish out of water, but Alpha Dale’s eyes were merciless as he slashed him with his claws. It was not deep enough to kill him, but it was going to keep him immobile for a while. He slashed again and again, Derrick’s screams tearing through the air around us. No one moved to stop him, not even Trent who just stood there and watched as their Lycan King tortured their enemy, giving him

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   The Last Drop Of Blood

    Amber’s POV I allowed Janine and Yeti work their way through the ones who just arrived in the new waves, and focused on emptying out the rest of the area. Building by building, I worked though all of them, but I was also thankful that Silas and his men were wiping out a lot by themselves. Most of the prisoner tents were already emptied out and it gave me some relief. Vehicles kept coming in and out to get our people out of the area before they became casualties of the battle. The fighting was not close to over. Derrick was still nowhere in sight and whether they knew Celia was dead or not was irrelevant. A lot of them had no experience in battle and their loyalty was not great enough to keep them fighting for long. That worked to our advantage as far as I knew. For a minute, I was sure Alpa Dale was set on just guarding me and watching what was going on around us, that was until I heard him curse viciously under his breath, hooking an arm around my waist as he turned me. I felt

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Vengeance

    Amber’s POV Celia’s face was pulled into a sneer as she saw that she was on her own. She looked around all of us and then at her men lying unconscious at our feet. For a minute, I sensed a small pool of fear in her but it was gone as quickly as it came. “Seriously?” she jeered. “Did you really think you were going to come in here and kill me like that?” I refused to react to her words or the cold and vicious tone her voice took. Long gone was the time when I feared her. Growing up with people who never accepted me had been a traumatic experience for me, but even more traumatic was the maltreatment and punishments Celia and her mother put me through. They were both sociopaths who deserved no mercy. All they cared about was power and how much they could get their hands on. If she could, she would have killed me a long time ago, without question or remorse but just because she wanted to prove that she was higher and better than me in every way/ I took a breath as I perused her crit
