Ember

Waking up, she felt strange, she felt claustrophobic, like the room she was in was too small. She realized she seemed to be in a pack hospital room, but she didn’t know this hospital. She could hear wolves walking around outside and the faint mutter of voices. She knew this was a pack hospital, since it was much more up to date than the one at River Ash and any she had seen off pack grounds.

The lighting seemed too bright, but she was sure the migraine had made her eyes and ears extra sensitive. Sitting up, she found an IV in her arm and she frowned at it with confusion, the bag at the other end of the IV was empty.

    EmberThe trio’s teasing was making her so angry, but for some reason she was doubly angry. As if there was another entity being angry with her, especially when Leo said she’d be an adorable puppy the size of a handbag dog. It always angered her when he called her tiny or small, but this time it was downright insulting!At that moment there was a sudden surge of rage that tore through her and shot out to every small cell in her body and she would have screamed at the sudden and overpowering agony that shot through her, but it was over so fast that all she could do was just lie there panting at the sudden release from pain and how entirely exhausted she was.

    Leo CooperHe’d always wanted a little sister, but his mother had been unable to have any more pups after he was born. He didn’t know the intricacies of why not and personally he wasn’t sure he wanted to know that much about his mother’s body and his parents’ sex life.All he knew was that he would never have a blood sibling. He’d been feeling like he was missing out on something his whole life. He watched Oliver with his younger sister and Ash with his younger brother who was also in school with them, but made a point of hiding his true identity from the school at large. No one would guess they were brothers since he had signed in under their mother’s maiden name.Rhodes was more of a researcher than anything, though not as geeky as Ember. He was an accomplished fighter like most alpha-born pups, but he wanted anonymity. They often speculated that Rhodes would choose to go into the un

    Alpha AnsonHe’d spent the night working through the contract; it was a fairly straight-forward contract aside from the non-disclosure clause that included everything to do with the pack, including the alliance they would share if he signed. That was new and different.What were they hiding from?Tom had been doing research since he’d phoned him the previous day, but he seemed to come up with very little information on the Bane pack. Even with all his contacts, there wasn’t much to find and that both baffled and worried him.His god-daughter was in their pack at this moment, a single human girl; alone. Was she really safe with them? What would they do to her? He didn’t get an overly negative sense or any sense of lies from their alpha, but that didn’t mean much when she was unprotected. Why wouldn’t they let him into their territory to see his child?He had been having a hard t

The old adage of ‘hell hath no fury like a woman scorned’ was playing in his favor.It took the barest hint of flirting to get Bernadette Boyer to take him up on his offer in exchange for some assistance in digging herself out of some lawsuit. Of course, he was a lawyer. But he wanted information from her first; and he wasn’t about to pass on a good fuck.She was rumored to be the easiest lay in the area, which is probably why River Ash pack threw her out as a Luna. One can’t have someone who acts like a prostitute and sells her body for pretty things in charge of a pack with young she-wolves looking up to her. But he was surprised when he came to her flat and

    AshEmber had slept for a few hours on his lap and then woke up looking much better, aside from her embarrassment about sleeping on his lap. After they all had lunch Leo suggested they go to the now empty training field and see what she could do now that she was a wolf as well.“I don’t think that’s a good idea…” Ash tried to slow things down. She just got out of hospital that morning after having her world thrown into turmoil by suddenly becoming a wolf when she had thought herself a human all these years.Ember rolled her eyes. “I feel like I’m going to climb the walls if I don’t move or do something.” She objected.“Great! Let’s go!” Leo grinned and reached for her hand, but stopped when he gave a low possessive growl. “Come on, man!” Leo protested indignantly and Ash glared at him. He had a f

Ember had picked up doing her repair videos, since her fan base had requested it. But now Nova and Charlotte would have their own videos on things as well. They took it in shifts now and it seemed like it had become their own side business.It hadn’t taken them long to start doing their videos after they had done an introduction of Charlotte and Nova.

    AshHe would have never guessed the complete change in his mate during the weekend they spent at the cabin. If he hadn’t experienced it himself, he might not have believed it was possible. But then it could be the heat. Where before she had always been reserved and unsure about her role in his life, she now would just crawl into his lap when she needed affection.And she needed it a lot. He wasn’t complaining at all. It soothed him to know that she now felt safe enough with him that she would at random moments just crawl into his lap, where before she had always tried to keep some distance.He wasn’t sure if it was because of her heat or because she could now sense his emotions. Maybe it was because she was sure of his feelings for the first time. But she wasn’t as reserved as she had been and she was much less prone to shut herself down and focus on something she could do alone.Even the s

I know your first heat is the worst, but I’m here with you and you just have to tell me what you want.” He soothed her, while he rested his hand on her thigh.Her skin seemed to sizzle and cool at the same time where he touched her and she craved more of his touch. It felt so good! “He’s ours, girl. Claim him!” Lume insisted when the car suddenly came to a stop.His hand left her thigh and she whined in complaint, but it seemed a moment and a lifetime later, he was reaching for her from the passenger side door.

It was during all that celebration that his adorable mate finally understood that she did have a family; she wasn’t an orphan.The day would only get better, since they had a celebratory breakfast and the doctor finally cleared her for light training as long as she continued eating healthily.

She was so relieved that she could finally see and so happy to have him back that she started sobbing.“Em-Baby, I’ve got you; it’ll get better…” He soothed, clutching her to his chest like he’d done every morning. She was sure with all her mixed emotions it was difficult for him to sense which one had brought her to tears.Honestly, she was nervous and scared about the marking ceremony, since her last one was still so fresh in her mind.

What he found fascinating was that she knew exactly where the keys were on the keyboard. She pointed out that the F and the J both had a small mark on that one could feel with their fingertips, but it didn’t make it any less amazing that she knew all the keys by heart simply by finding those two keys.Calum and Ilene had also joined the others scouring through paperwork and arranging them according to the information that could be gleaned from them.

    CharlotteShe was still a little star struck being around so many important wolves. She was from a small pack that worked hard all the time to be seen; not that she was trying half as hard as her father was. Her brother would be taking over from their father when the time came, so she had been informed by her stepmother that they would try to find a good match for her, never once considering that she would want to be with her mate. Her stepmother was working so hard with her father to accomplish his dream to make the pack be seen that they didn’t care about her dreams. And that was why her father hadn’t even known about her creations and personal pass-times. She was amazed to meet the princess who was entirely down to earth if somewhat shy. The way her stepmother had read her demands when she had forced her to get dressed in that horrid pink gown, she would have thought that the royals would be condescending and aloof, but they were acting like normal wolves with normal lives.He
