What do you all think about how much Ace has changed from when Kaiya first mentioned him?
Kaiya I’m not sure how long I have been in this attic. Sometimes, I’m shackled to the cross, others I am strapped to a table or bed. Ace’s minions guard me in twos or threes for my “bathroom privilege” which is essentially a bucket I relieve myself in, but Ace comes in person to force feed me and question me. He’s not gentle about handling me and though he has yet to do anything more sexual than the first day when he bit my breasts while caressing them, but he has suggested it many times. “If you are a good girl, maybe I will give you what you crave,” Ace has suggested, palming his erection through his slacks. He does not realize I only craze one thing right now and that is my freedom. Let’s not discuss how he always gets an erection as he whips me and questions me and handles me roughly. I believe Ace delights in my pain. He’s a sadistic asshole. Ace or his minions whip me and beat me daily, though they are careful not to damage me too much because they view me as fragile like
Dylan ‘The Little Mouse escaped during the attack!’ Ace snarls at me through the mindlink. ‘I have some ideas where to search. You search North towards the forest between here and Freepelt Pack and I will head south towards the forest there. We can have men search the city, but she is more likely to go north or so along the river,’ I reply. I remember Kaiya and her friend Amina spending a lot of time along the river on their day off, especially during the summer months, but Autumn has been creeping in and it nears winter. The river is far too cold to swim in at this time of year, even for werewolves and her wolf is either dead or very weak. I still wouldn’t put it past her to follow the river or to jump in if she felt desperate. What desperation would drive her to leap? What will I do if I find her? What will I do if I don’t? Goddess! Why does it have to be so complicated? If she would answer Ace, maybe…or at least I hope he would let her leave. I could carry her far away, where
Ace I carry Kaiya back upstairs to her dungeon and change her clothes myself. I’ll need her body healthy, even if her mind is not. She has an amazing figure, but that doesn’t make up for what she did to Rebecca. I might need to play with her more, though. Kaiya was always pretty and so fragile looking, yet she held up to our training sessions well. She never complained, at least not outwardly and often held a smile for me. I remember watching her through the windows one day as she cleaned the sitting room and admiring the shape of her slender form and how her curves were in all the right places. She was so pleasing to look at and so polite, so why are Rebecca’s accounts and memories so different. Rebecca told me of a time Kaiya sought her out in the school library telling her to stay away from us because she would find a way to make us her and wouldn’t have anyone get in her way, no matter what their rank. Maybe it’s because Kaiya wanted us to believe she was sweet and
Kaiya My eyes open to yet another day in the blasted attic and I am sure I can expect a visit or two from Ace, as usual. It grows tiresome, his taunting and constant edging between sexual play and angry outbursts of violence. He has yet to do more than caress and bite my flesh, but I fear he will not stop at that one of these days. Tears well in my eyes when I hear the creak of the floorboards beyond the door and the clicking of the locks being undone. Here comes another session with Ace! “Good morning, Little Mouse! I bring you scrambled eggs and toast. I have juice, but the coffee is for me. You don’t get coffee,” Ace hums in an almost sing-song tune. “If you are a good girl and eat up for me, I might reward you.” Ace adjusts the bed I am strapped to, so I am sitting, nearly upright as he usually does for feeding me. “I see you wet yourself during the night. Such a shame. That must be uncomfortable for you. I will need to give you a sponge bath, but for that, I need to give y
Rebecca I know Ace goes to his little pet every morning and feeds her. He needs her strength so she can bear his heir. I know he toys with her and his desires run almost as deep as his anger and hatred. That is why I encourage his trysts with the Omegas and even my best friend, Tiffany. I watch through the sheer curtains of the french doors dividing our living area from bedroom as Ace fucks Tiffany hard. I touch myself as I watch him toss her from her position on her hands and knees, quickly flipping her to her back and slamming into her with a vengeance. It turns me on not only watching their interaction, but knowing this little act of passion is causing that little red haired bitch unbearable pain! If I truly loved Ace, I would not stand for this, but he is a tool like any other. He is an ends to a means, like any man is. They are not worth the trouble of actually caring for them. But Ace does have a spectacular body and I know how to leverage mine to control him. Too bad, my wi
Dylan Meetings…lots of meetings! Our company is going down the toilets! Our CFO quit and now we need a new Chief Financing Officer. The previous one was embezzling for over four years. I fear we are sunk and if the business fails our pack finances fail. This is not how I wanted today to go! This afternoon, Ace is allowing me to spend some time with Kaiya in my suite before he moves her to a spot in the dungeons he had fixed up to accommodate her. He fears she will try to escape again, and wants to keep her safe, yet under his thumb. I leave one meeting to go to another. This one is with a newspaper contact who gives us discounts on running ads in the largest newspaper in our region. “Hi, Mr. Stevens!” I greet. “You know you can call me Joh, Dylan. I have known you since you were six years old,” My father’s old friend says. “I know, John. But I am here for business. We need to run another Ad for a Chief Financial Officer. Maybe we should add a new accountant, too. I am about
Kaiya What the fuck was that? I wonder to myself as I reel in the heat of what just passed between Dylan and I. I am uncertain what to think or feel. All reasoning has left me as the guards, Tanner, Ross and Jared all lead me to my new home in the dungeons, because I am a clever “Little Mouse”. Honestly, I think Ace lost the plot somewhere. He is not right in the head. Dylan, on the other hand…Dylan made my heart race and my body fill with a need I never imagined having. I need to feel his touch. I crave his hands all over my body, his kisses, his mouth. I want him to explore me and ravish me. I want to give into his most depraved desires. I have never felt this way before, not even when Ace touches me and my body responds to him, does this level of need strike me. ‘It is because Dylan was being kind and sensual,’ I think I hear the faintest, weakest voice mumble in my mind and then my headache takes over. “Is my headache caused by Lilly trying to re-awaken?” I mumble to myself t
Ace Yesterday evening’s interaction with Kaiya plays out in my mind as I sit between Rebecca and Dylan in the dining hall. Rebecca, feels ill and excuses herself, calling for her little Omega girl to help her to our suite, while I finish my meal next to the steel trap that is my brother. Dylan is as cold as a block of ice. How can Kaiya be turned on by that? Why don’t I make her as anxious to play as he does? I could see it in her eyes when I asked. She wants him in ways I want her to want me. I hate her and what she did to Rebecca, but I can not deny my desire to possess Kaiya and fill her with my seed. I am pondering this when one of the pack historian’s approaches. I listen carefully as he speaks to my brother. “Dylan, I found something important you need to hear. You and your brother both!” The Historian, Octavius I believe, says. “Yes, Octavius..then please tell us,” Dylan says with a hint of curiosity in his tone. “Hmmm…how do I put this lightly?” The historian muses. “Fra
Dierdre The Lord of The Hunt…He is the estranged prince of the Spring Kingdom. His elder brother is the future king. But the Lord of The Hunt is a wildcard. No one is ever quite sure what to expect. I awakened in an elegant room within his forest palace. At first, I think I am alone and then he speaks. “Priestess, have you thought about my proposal or is that man in my dungeon your mate?” “I have a fated mate, of that I am certain,” I reply. “And you choose to ignore our bond?” “I told you already that when I meet my fated mate, we will return if it is in agreement that we see if my mate also feels the bond,” I reply. “I have yet to meet my mate.” “What if I am all the Mate you are promised?” He asks. “I have seen a vision with a wolf and Lycan, you are neither of those,” I reply. “Dierdre, please! Please, tell me you feel it!” He pleads. “I…I feel it, but…you were not in my vision,” I admit at last. “And the Wolf-Lycan man in my dungeon?” “He is having me guide him to one o
Miguel The first two days we had to travel slowly as we passed through the dark region. The Bodkins entertained us both nights we were there and yesterday we crossed through what Dierdre called the Twilight Threshold into a very green and purple landscape that she informed me is The Spring Kingdom. We are going to a kingdom known as The Kingdom of Nod…Chimera Fae and dream sprites are the most prominent species after The High Elves that are present in nearly every realm. I have been learning about the realms and travel through this kingdom has been sped up by a bit of transportation magic. Dierdre explained that her Shadow Wolf Magic could allow her to travel through shadows and even bring me along, but that it is too unpredictable in this landscape. Tomorrow we will cross into The Summer Kingdom. The Kingdom of Nod is somewhere beyond the Kingdoms of The Four Seasons. This morning we saw our first Shrinking Violet. She was a pretty little Fae, but as she blushed a vibrant purple
Raiden The first few days without Miguel have been alright, but there is a restless energy that had Alpha Kaiya concerned enough to call the Lycan King for some support. Her half-brother, the Future Lycan King along with his mate, are set to arrive ahead of his father today. His father and some warriors will be arriving in the coming days, but they have a secret route. It is best not to alert the growing mass of Shades, Riders, and beasts that we have backup coming. Beta Amina (who I guess I can just call Amina since she is basically my sister in law) keeps us updated on everything so that we can remain safe and vigilant. I would feel better if I knew my twin and Miguel were safe, but there is no way for us to reach them where they are, or to know when they find one another. I know that the dream we had, or rather the vision, was of them, but we never reached them. “Today, I am taking all three of you shopping for maternity clothes,” Lena announces as she enters the living room,
Miguel The sorceress…priestess…Mage…whatever you want to call her, meets me in the foyer of the Packhouse on the morning of our departure. “I suppose we ought to get to know one another since I will be bringing you into the realm of the fae and my magic combined with your muscle will be our primary defenses against anything foul. I am Deirdre, the half sister of your Alphas, Ace and Dylan. I am a priestess and half mage with both werewolf and Lycan blood,” the young, dark haired woman states as she shakes my hand. “I am Miguel. I too am part Lycan and I chose to join my small pack to the pack of your brothers and their mates, giving up my title as Alpha to strengthen both of our packs. I am a skilled fighter, but hope we don’t come into too many perils with my mates all counting on me to return in one piece,” I reply. “I really wish you would take someone else along with you,” Alpha Dylan says to his younger sister. “That can not be done. Miguel will be fine as he is seeking one
Lena It’s the last full moon before Miguel goes into the realm of the fae to try to find our other mate, Raiden’s long lost twin. I will be here with all of our pregnant mates. I know my fighting skills aren’t as great as Rita’s or Raiden’s, but I will do everything in my power to keep them safe. With the full moon rising, I can feel the heat and rut cycle beginning to take over, so all other thoughts will be set aside. I work to get dinner ready for myself and my mates. Antony is by my side, preparing the salad and making us dessert. His sweet face is turning rosy and I can tell from his looks that he can smell my rising arousal. He won’t go into heat, but he will get horny with the rest of us. The bond will ensure that. Of the four mates I have currently, three are pregnant and deliciously glowing with their pregnancies. “We’ll have to hope you don’t also get pregnant,” Miguel says from behind me. “At least not until I have returned.” “If I do, I know our pack will do their
Tobias Being a newly awakened pregnant Lycan is strange at best. I am hungry or horny often and now it’s the full moon. So both of my mates will be giving off sexy feromones which makes me even more horny. Gah! I just realized that my younger sister is going through this very same thing at the moment, only she has more mates than I do! That is mortifying. I need to put the entire thought out of my head. It’s bad enough that I can’t train while pregnant so I am overthinking things. “Tobias, stop overthinking. Talk to me if you need to,” Amina says, looking up from the report she is reading. “Or, if it helps you to get out of your head, read over one of these reports for me and see what you can discern from it. Maybe a fresh set of eyes will help me gain a new perspective on this situation.”I stop pacing and sit on the sofa in her office with one of the reports. SHe has been over these a dozen times. It’s the reports flooding in from all over the country about The Riders and The Sh
Damien I don’t mind helping carry things and put them all in the correct rooms of the new house. I don’t even mind putting the furniture together with Miguel. But when we are all done and Miguel sits down to talk with me and voices his concerns, it feels…different. It’s like he really is embracing me as family, which I know we are since he is mated to my mates’ sisters, but I still often feel like an outsider. “While I’m gone, can you please keep an eye on them for me. I know you are training Lena, and Rita and Raiden can both fight, but with them pregnant, I just…Lena can’t protect three pregnant mates alone,” Miguel sighs. “After the full moon, I’m heading out to find Raiden’s twin and birth giving parent.” “We knew that, but I really hope it goes well and you come back soon. I will watch out for them and I will continue training Lena,” I reply. “Afterall, we are family and family takes care of one another.” I don’t know what else I can say. It’s not like I can assure him they
Sorry I disappeared, I have had some major family stuff happen, but will resume updates in the coming weeks. They may only be 2 or 3 per week for now, but I am aiming to work back up to daily updates. I didn't mean to leave everyone hanging and I have to catch up on where in the story I am so that I can continue from there. Hopefully, some of the stuff getting in the way of me writing will be handled more permanently soon.Thank you for your patience in the meantime.I believe I have less than 20 chapters left in part 2 (give or take depending on how long some scenes take to write) then we will be moving on to part 3. So far part 2 has gone in directions I didn't forsee when I first planned it, but I like where it has gone better than the original plan. I fully intend parts 3 and 4 to be packed with action and more surprises. And hope to finish the book by the end of June or July.
Amina Today is moving day. Damien, Tobias and I are helping Lena and her mates move into their new home. As we drop the children off in the nursery with the other young ones I nod at Kaiya when she mindlinks me that she has noticed how unsettled Xavier has become when he isn’t near Amal. Both have increased their tantrums and upset when apart over the last several weeks. I am uncertain how we can fix it without making a permanent space for the kids to have as their space, maybe the suite they stay in during our heat and rut cycles needs to be their nursery and all of our children will move into that space and have one or two of us or permanent sitters there with them. I know my mother would gladly permanently help raise her grandchildren. Xavier’s concern for his little mate’s safety is heartwarming, but it leaves me with a feeling in the pit of my stomach. The heir is worried about a war we know is coming, but have never told him about. I steady my mind and focus on the task at
