My reasons for insisting I be taken home directly to Mountaintop after my mates made me come, were not entirely selfish. While I preferred to be in my own bed, off packlands filled with wolves, against the advice of Raven and Grey that it was unwise for me to leave the healing cabin so soon, I also could sense the rising tension between my Alpha mates. Roam was stubborn as a mule, he refused to leave my side, and while him and I did not see eye to eye on practically everything, his lingering presence on Timberlands was causing problems. I did not want him hurt because of me, sure he was strong and all, but even he could not defeat a whole wolf pack on his own. He had come here to the land of his sworn enemies to save me. And I owed it to him to make sure he stepped off these lands in one piece. Roam had invoked the law of parley once he had crossed into this territory. It had granted him safety until Moonrise even though the council had refused to hear him speak before them. I doubte

I was sweating buckets, felt the urge to vomit, wanted to cry, and I did not think I could make it a step further when I reached Grey’s dark pickup truck outside the healing cabin. Though both my mates could smell my pain and hear the fast thrum of my heart and labored breathing, they let me do it on my own, even my overbearing mate who didn’t always like to take no for an answer. They sensed my need to do it on my own two feet. Maybe we were making progress after all. On the bumps and twists back to Mountaintop, I was on the verge of breaking down and asking for the good drugs, my pride be dammed. I didn’t see what I had left to lose at this point as both the males in the vehicle with me had already seen me at my worst and lowest. Grey kept asking me every ten point seven seconds if I was doing alright and he gave me worried glances in the rearview mirror. Roam studied me squirming on the seat next to him trying without much success to get comfortable. I didn’t remember these roads

Of my two mates, Grey seemed to be the quickest learner, while Roam seemed to see through my bullshit quicker. Perhaps that was because the dark wolf was more like me than I cared to admit, a liar skilled in deception and half-truths whom the salt of this Earth had grinded down until only hard edges were left. I figured the grey wolf was quicker to understand my needs and boundaries because he had a heart and was a more empathetic being overall. Both of them had their uses to me currently, and when they no longer served their purposes, I would sever these mating bonds between us and send them packing from my land.But as it stood now, with me being weak as a kitten, and smack dab in the middle of a brewing pack war surrounding The Moon-crossed mates, I had to tolerate these Alphas and let them play their roles. This was going to play out in ways that likely ended in blood, and so long as it wasn’t mine, I was good with that. But even as my mind thought such harsh things, my heart was

In the end, I was spared from further embarrassment of having Rand and Lily watch Grey carry me into my house because the she-wolf pulled her mate off towards the diner to get some food. Lily and me’s bond and girl sync was deepening. She sensed my pain and exhaustion, and the need for me to be alone with my mates, without me having to verbalize it. I owed her. I owed them both. I owed more people than I liked, and I hated having unpaid debts. I hated needing help.But there was little I could do about that currently, as my knees felt like wobbly gelatinous sticks that wouldn’t carry me very far. Instead, I gave the Alpha of Timberlands what I hoped was a seductive smile and batted my lashes at him.“Does the offer still stand of a strapping, hunk of a man to carry this damsel in distress to her lodgings for the night?”He looked over his shoulder and around the yard, before his grey eyes locked on me with a grin, “Oh, you meant me? Why I would be honored ma’am. Allow me.”“You are fa

I slept like the dead. So much in fact, when I finally came back to the land of the living around midday, I had hazy memories of my mates waking me sporadically throughout the night just to ease their troubled minds that I would in fact open my eyes. I had grumbled and growled at them to let me sleep and promised violence if I was disturbed further. Not that it intimidated either of them enough to stop checking on me and my wound. Hell, I had even been only semi-conscious through the healer’s visit, and it was her scent still lingering in my room that made me even remember Raven had changed my bandages and checked me for a fever.My body had needed the rest, and I woke up surprisingly feeling more refreshed than I expected, even with the pain sharp and unrelenting in my chest. Perhaps it had been the two orgasms that my mates had given me that had a hand in it, along with being in my own bed. And even feeling their presences watch over me until the darkness had retreated and the sun w

The dark wolf kept his distance and stuck to the shadows of the mountain for the rest of the afternoon, while Lily and Rand kept me company. I felt Roam’s presence stalking the woods, keeping alert to any potential threats, and an ear open for any signs of distress from his mate, but he stayed out of my sight, which was for the best. I was still furious with him, the bastard had dented the wood of my nightstand, but worst, he’d made another dent in my battered heart. But with the bond fully in place now, I figured I would never truly escape him, and I loathed that he was now a part of me. I knew that even if I severed the bond, I would still be reminded of him because of the void inside me left behind. That young wolf, eager to soak up the outside world in my diner, had told me as much, that broken mating bonds left scars that never fully mended. Not only was both of the mates weakened in a physical sense, but also a mental one, like a part of them had been removed. But to me, it wou

My pain and panic had followed me from one body to the next, though it was more muted than before. But even with my mates at my side, my wolf was still desperate to escape as she did not like feeling trapped. I had caged her too many times, for far too long, and now she could not handle being in a confined space, one man-made. I eyed a way to break free and make to the comfort of the trees.My mates remained in their human skins, my grey wolf’s voice was gentle as he held his hands before him and stood between me and the doorway.“Easy, mate. You are safe here and no harm will come to you. Your mates will watch over you.”But my dark mate’s voice dripped with his alpha power, his wolf breaking through his human eyes as he commanded me, “Stay. Shift back, mate. Wait until night falls to run beneath our creator.”But even as I wanted to obey and submit, my wolf was filled with terror and pain and she needed to feel the Earth beneath her paws and the sinking sun on her fur, the wind agai

After my emotional breakdown, I felt physically strong enough to make it back to my cabin, on my own two legs, with my mates by my side while we still had the cover of darkness. In these hours not far from dawn, there was few humans on my land quelling their appetites at mountaintop and we ran less risk of being seen. I shuddered to think how many witnesses there may have been earlier tonight when my wolf went on her rampage, but prayed I didn’t need to do too much damage control. The folks in this town still talked and remembered the feral wolf from years ago that had killed a local, and I figured I could make sure that rumor, of feral wolves stalking this mountain was alive and well. And as for the man seen near the fighting animals, he was a bleeding-heart animal activist I had hired to help me humanely remove the wild animals from my land. I would spread this tale throughout my diner, just to be on the safe side, because someone had to have heard and saw something last night. It

A burst of rage-fueled adrenaline coursed through my veins, giving me a second wind. I used my burst of strength to push myself off the tree, to stand tall, before I grabbed the shovel and began to dig furiously. Dirt and bits of roots and moss flung through the air as I took my frustrations out on the Earth. I would not greet the dark alpha like an obedient little mate eagerly awaiting his return. We would face each other as enemies, and he would stay on his side of the mountain or face the consequences. Grey was smart enough to get out of my way. The younger alpha decided to face his enemy on equal footing, wolf to wolf, as he merged with his animal once more. The human part of me had too much to say to the brute to shift, and my communication while in my fur would not be adequate unless he set foot onto my land. Then my literal claws and teeth would come out and I would show him no mercy.It did not take wolf senses to know when the dark one prowled near the boundary. The heavy ma

My eyes, the color of a muddy river like that of my father’s, locked onto the Alpha’s, not backing down, the challenge there, daring him to take it. I steeled my spine and my nerves, and I did not even let my wolf come through, because I had the power inside me, and I did not need to flash her rage, her pain, to let my mate know I was a dangerous predator not to be messed with.“Get out of my way, Grey. Or I will make you.”My voice had stayed calm and was more deadly than had it been dripping with aggression. Like a snake, waiting and watching for the need to strike.He let out a breath that sounded painful to exhale, “At least let me help you then.”So, his pack could suffer the consequences. Even the sting of his betrayal was not enough to let me agree to allow him to antagonize his enemy by disrespecting their dead. Wolves of Rocky’s status among the pack were sent off with honor to their place in the sky to spend eternity near their creator. It would be a grave insult to the crea

I stayed in that cabin with my she-wolf and her mate no matter how it turned my stomach and I had to choke down the vomit. No matter how my eyes stung while my mask cracked, I had to shut them a time or two to keep from screaming. The sound of that bone drill burrowing into my beta’s skull and Lily’s cries would haunt me for the rest of my life. I forced myself to bear it because I was their Luna, and my discomfort did not matter. What I wanted or needed no longer mattered. The scent of Rand’s blood was still heavy in the air, even after the healer and his mate had washed him clean again and had disposed of the bloody towels and crimson colored water. A clean bandage shrouded his head, and soon more joined along his bruised and broken body. Raven even stitched the worst wounds closed to help them heal faster. I wondered if I would always smell his wolfblood in here from now on as if it had soaked into the wood permanently. After Raven had cleaned and gathered her supplies, gave the

Grey did not argue, though he looked torn wanting to help, while the females carried the young beta inside the hunting cabin as gently as possible. Rand did not cry out in pain, which was not a good thing, he was limp and blood spattered in our arms. We laid him atop the bed, not giving a damn about staining the sheets. I could hear my mate pacing outside, though he respected my orders and did not set foot inside. Me slamming the door roughly behind us, gave the wolf the hint as well, that he was not welcomed. The Alpha of Timberlands would be off my land entirely soon enough, which was for the best because at the moment, I felt particularly violent towards him, now that the initial sting of hurt was waning, the rage was coming through strong. The only male I wanted to hurt more than Grey right now, was that fucking brute who I fully intended to get my pound of flesh from. The dark wolf was nothing but a lying bastard whom I had been a fool to trust his word. Animals had no honor. R

As soon as my Alpha mate’s boots hit the dirt, he rushed to me, his keen grey eyes assessing me from head to toe. I could see the rush of emotions that crossed his handsome face, worry, fear, anger, sympathy, regret, guilt. His hands gripped my shoulders gently to still me for a more intense inspection as I was shaking and jittery like I had just drunk ten energy drinks. When he noticed my torn-up arm, the scent of an enemy wolf still clinging to my skin, then his sister, bloody and dazed, holding onto her blood spattered and still mate, his wolf slipped through as he growled. I knew Grey’s aggression was not aimed at me. His eyes blazed when they landed on the dead wolf, naked, and minus a skull, with most of his brain matter, tainting my land.“I’m going to bury him in fucking silver chains,” he snarled, “and then I’m going to challenge his oath breaking, lying son of a bitch Alpha! A wolf with no honor has no place on this Earth!”My heart bashed into my ribs for an entirely differ

The massive hell-beast closed the gap between my fallen beta, his loyal mate, and I, in only a few leaps. My she-wolf howled in anguish at not protecting her mate or her Luna. Tears of physical pain no longer soaked my cheeks, now replaced by tears of regret and failure, of helplessness. I did not cry tears for myself in what was likely my last seconds of life.His dark form was upon me before I could even fire off another round. Before I could try and connect to the Earth beneath me and drawl strength to help fight this monster from under the mountain. My other regrets flashed before my eyes as time seemed to slow. I had never even told Grey I loved him. Or told Roam I did not always like him, but I did not hate him.I had not spoken to my cousin Jeanette in over a week and would never meet her boyfriend. I had not visited my paternal grandparent’s in their nursing home when I could have made that drive in six hours or flown in, in the two years it’d been since my bastard uncles had

I knew that I covered more ground quicker in my wolf form, and I could even carry the shotgun in my mouth, but I was not ready to shift just yet. I dashed through the trees like a mad woman, pushing back branches with ease, and navigating roots that would have tripped me up in the past, but with my wolf simmering at the surface, she led me her coordination, some of her agile speed, her heightened senses. And kick ass night vision. I should have been letting her out more all along.There was the slim chance it was a nomadic wolf who had crossed onto my packlands, still thinking it was neutral ground. But I had remarked all the boundaries of my territory only a few days ago with my scent, and unless the wolf was truly feral, or old and senile, or had no sense of smell, it was not an accident this male had trespassed onto my land. And when I got closer to his earthy scent, and I caught traces of sulfur from his fur, I knew exactly where the bastard had come from. The wolves from the cave

I thanked Monique for staying over, and she was just glad I had not been murdered. That was her actual words to me, because I had never been late to my shift before, and she too, liked to listen to true crime podcasts to help her unwind at night. Her imagination had been getting the best of her, and she had already been putting together a list of likely suspects in her head. Top of the list was a creepy once regular who had tried to stalk me post a hookup two years back, after I had made it clear there’d be no repeat performance.I laughed at that one, because I had forgotten about him, last thing I knew he had steered clear of me and Mountaintop after I threatened to tell his fiancée. And after I showed him my shot gun. I had questionable morals, but fucking men with wives or girlfriends, had never been my thing. Had I known about said fiancée before I let him fuck me in his truck after my shift, I would have chosen another dick to ride instead. After I had already been stalked and h

With my mates close by, their familiar earthy scents like an aphrodisiac that made me wet between the knees, I let out a contented sigh. I was sprawled out between my Alphas, naked and unbothered, staring up at the night sky, the stars had also come back out after the storm, and it was now the witching hour. “Holy shit!” I shot up like the forest bed had overheated beneath me, “I’m late for work.” Grey was on my left, and he sat up as I did. His thick hair was messy, though I was not the cause of it this time. Traces of moisture still adorned his tight body and tempted me greatly to follow the trails with my tongue. I shook off my lust, though it was not easy to do, and got to my feet. Roam remained spread out arrogantly on the grass, hands behind his rain kissed hair, his proud cock jutting out without shame. “Take the night off Rabbit. Besides I have yet to punish you for your disobedience, Luna.” That wicked glint in my dark mate’s eye promised that I would likely enjoy his pun
