Third person's POV Alpha Hughes growls as his door suddenly flies open and an angry Beta steps into his office before slamming the door shut and locking it. "Don't you dare growl at me! You said you couldn't explain earlier, we're alone now, talk! Tell me why my fucking Luna is upstairs in a regular room next to Dominic instead of your room, or the family suite across from yours?" Colton said angrily, pointing his finger at his best friend. Hughes ran his hand through his hair, before sliding it down his face as he sat back in his chair. "You know why! He's a dominant Delta 3. Not a submissive, He can't be my mate! He can't give me an heir. The pack is going to want an heir and you know it!" "Who the fuck cares, they'll get over it!" Colton said, his body dropping into the chair in front of his Alpha. "Sure, some of the pack will accept him. But there's a lot that won't. And even if a good portion of the pack accepts him, the elders of our pack won't. They'll never let me mate
Claudius's POV I didn't have the energy the following day for Colton to show me around. But the day after that I did. It's been 4 days since I first arrived, and I finally have enough energy to leave this room. And of course, not once has the Alpha come to check on me. I don't even know if he cares that I just spent four days in my room, hardly able to make it to the bathroom, let alone walk around the pack house. "Yes, we actually have a pretty good size library, since most of the rooms don't have TVs. Why don't I show you where the library is first in case you get too tired." Colton said with a smile beaming on his face. I don't know why, but he seems so excited to show me around. "So Luna, tell me about yourself?" Colton said as we walked down the stairs. "There's not really much to tell. You already know I'm a dominant Delta 3. I lived at the Midnight Moon Pack since I was 16. I don't have a family... I guess that's pretty much it." "Oh!... Well, what did you do at your ol
Claudius's POV I woke up feeling different today, optimistic! I don't know, after hearing what Colton said, maybe I do have a chance. Maybe he does want me and I just need to try to win his heart. I opened my suitcase and finally decided it was time to unpack. I hummed as I hung my clothes up, and placed the rest in my dresser. I pulled the silly picture of Noah and I out and set it on my dresser. I smiled at the ceramic gray wolf that was wrapped in bubble wrap to keep it safe. I placed it on the nightstand, facing the bed so I could look at it and smiled. There! It's starting to look a little more like home I suppose. I thought to myself and smiled. I looked in the mirror, making sure my clothes weren't wrinkly and my hair was just right. With a smile and newfound hope, I leave my little room and head downstairs. I hummed to myself as I walked down the three flights of stairs, then nibbled on my lip as I tried to figure out where the Alpha's office is. Each door I passe
Third Person's POV Alpha Hughes quickly looked up when his door was thrown open before slammed shut. There stood before him, his best friend from childhood, his Beta. And his eyes were flashing between his own, and his wolf as he growled fiercely at him while standing in attack mode. Alpha Hughes slowly pushed his chair away from his desk as he stood up. "Mind tell me what the fuck your problem is?" "Mind telling me why my best friend is the biggest piece of shit!" "Colton, those words are fucking pushing it! What the fuck are you talking about?" "You know what the fuck I'm talking about you heartless bastard!" Colton growled out, before leaping over the desk and landing on his Alpha. Colton's teeth sunk into Hughes's shoulder and the Alpha growled as he extended his claws, sinking them into Colton's sides. This effectively caused Colton to let go, and retract his canines as he pulled back growling from the pain. Colton pulled his fist back before quickly landing a shot on t
Claudius's POV I looked up when I heard two knocks on the door before it slowly opened and Dominic cautiously peeked in. "I hope you don't mind, I let myself in. I didn't think I would hear you." Dominic said as he entered with a tray of food, and I smiled at him. He set the tray on my lap as I sat with my back against the headboard. He turned and then sat down at the foot of the bed. He looked around the room briefly before looking at me again. "So, how do you know the Alpha?" He asked and I felt a tightening in my chest. I assumed he knew who I was to the Alpha since the Beta knew. It seems Colton is the only person who knows then. "I-I'm from the Midnight Moon Pack," I said, hoping that was enough. "Oh, Noah's pack! Yeah, that little shit was a good fighter! He whooped my ass!" Dominic said then laughed. I chuckled as I brought the spoon to my mouth and took a bite of soup. I was thankful it was soup. I was afraid anything heavier might make me throw up. I hummed and smil
Claudius's POV I forgave Colton, or I should say I believe him. He explained I wasn't the person the Alpha was talking about that day. I don't know, maybe he was, maybe he wasn't. But when I look into Colton's eyes, I can see nothing but honesty. I think whatever he's telling me, he believes it's the truth. Whether the Alpha is telling him the truth or not, I'm not sure. Between Colton and Dominic, It seems as though I might have some new friends. I learned Dominic is not the original third in command. His older brother was. His brother was killed during the attack, so Dominic had to step up and take his place. That's why he's younger than the Alpha and Beta. I also learned the Alpha's age. Alpha Hughes is 31, Colton is 29, and Dominic is 25. And here I am, the youngest of the bunch, turning 20 in 2 months. Dominic is biracial. His mother is black, and his father is white. And thankfully, both are alive. I have to admit, he's an extremely attractive man. He has beautiful light
Claudius's POV "Are you sure you're strong enough?" "Yes, I desperately need to stretch my legs." "Okay, hang on," I said to Niko as I stood behind a tree just a little ways inside the tree line. I quickly pulled my clothes off and tucked them close to the tree before feeling Niko take over as he came forward. I hissed as the shift went a little slower than normal. "I'm sorry! I didn't realize my weakness would slow down my shift." Niko said. I could feel how guilty he felt, and I hated it. "Don't apologize! You have nothing to be sorry for! I can take a little pain. I'm fine!" "I know, I just, I didn't realize it would take that long to shift. I wouldn't have asked if I would have kn-" "No! I don't care how long it takes, if you ever want to shift, please don't be afraid to ask. I promise I can take it. I can endure a little pain, so you can run free, and be a wolf... Now come on. Run free and feel the wind against your fur." I said, smiling at my wolf who I love with all m
Claudius's POV After filling my plate, I turned around to find a seat, and once again, the dining room was full. Every spot was taken except for that little table in the far left corner. I let out a sigh before I began walking past everyone, forcing myself not to look at the chair next to the Alpha. After I sit down, I glance around the room and my eyes land on his. Once again he has that soft sad look on his face. I look away and begin eating. I was pleasantly surprised that my appetite seems to be coming back. I was almost able to finish my plate and smiled as I passed it to the Omega in the kitchen. Throughout the following week, every time I was in the dining room, I received the same look. Instead of the cold hard stare, I was met with a soft expression. I began looking forward to eating in the dining room. Every time I looked his way, he would look at me. Several times I saw a faint smile and I couldn't help but blush and smile back. Yes, going to the dining room has def
Third Person's POV Emmett watches the large bounce house go up and he gets excited to see the kids play in it. Ruth stood with her shoulders back and her head held high. She was proud of herself that she was able to get the exact bounce house Emmett wanted. Emmett looked around the yard, making sure everything was in place before heading inside to find his mates. Two hours is usually as long as Emmett can go without being near his mates and smelling them. But this time he only made it an hour and a half before his wolf was on edge and whining for his mates. Looking around, Emmett sees the balloons were up, the bounce house was almost ready, and the decorations throughout the yard were set, everything was just right. Relieved, Emmett quickly said goodbye to Ruth before darting into the house. Dominic and Dimitri had just finished wrapping gifts when the door burst open, and a head full of dark hair came bursting into the room. Dominic opened his arms and his little Omega leap
Third Person's POV 5 Years Later; Jeremy walks down the line, looking at his men as they perform their final task. He feels a sense of pride as he watches his men go through the movements, and perform each move perfectly. Jeremy never thought he would see the day when he would lead his own team of warriors, but here he is, leading a team of 50 men and women. Even though his cousin told him if he worked hard enough and proved himself, then one day he could have this position, Jeremy didn't believe it. He thought they were just words to make him feel better. Hughes not only kept his word, but he pushed the little Alpha to be better, and try out for the position… After dismissing his team, Jeremy turns around and sees his cousin smiling at him. "I'm proud of you! You have exceeded my expectations. You turned these men and women into real warriors." Hughes said as he tossed Jeremy a bottle of water. "Thank you!" Jeremy smiled as he caught the water. As Jeremy walks back toward
Third Person's POV Sawyer lays there in the warmth of his mate. He feels the weight of the Delta's arm on the small of his back as he sleeps. Sawyer trails his fingers along James' smooth muscular chest, enjoying the wonderful sensation of the mate bond as tingles dance under his fingertips. His eyes land on the bracelet he's wearing and his heart flutters. His eyes take in every detail of the brown braided leather bracelet. It looks so well crafted, and the Omega wonders how they got the metal infinity loop so perfectly in the center. His eyes go to the word “Forever” carved into the infinity loop, and a warmth spreads through his chest. He rotates his wrist and looks at the ring on his finger. He's never had a mate give him jewelry before. He's never had a mate shower him with gifts. Whenever James is in town, he always stops by the pastry shop and grabs Sawyer’s favorite desserts. Whenever something catches James' eyes that he thinks his mate might like, he brings it home an
Third Person's Pov Timothy plays with his tail as he chews on the popcorn and then tilts his head to the side. His eyebrows knit together as he watches the guy in the black suit and black cape race around town in a strange-looking black car. Timothy leans against Colton and reaches into the bowl, grabbing a handful of popcorn before shoving it into his mouth. He tilts his head again as the guy in the black cape almost seems to be flying, but he's being pulled along by a string of some sort. Timothy pulls his tail under his chin as the guy in the cape begins fighting the bad guy with makeup on his face. Timothy whimpers when it looks like the good guy in the cape is getting hurt and he turns and buries his face in Colton's neck. Colton sets the popcorn down on the table next to them and turns the TV off. He pulls his little mate into his lap and wraps his arms around him. "I'm sorry, I thought you might like Batman," Colton said as he caressed Timothy's back. Timothy cautiou
Third Person's POV "Oh shit, Dimitri, wake up!" Beckett said as he reached over and shook the Alpha awake. Dimitri opened his eyes as they came to a stop. His eyes widened when he saw Dominic, Hughes, and Colton with an army of men arguing with his brother at the front gate of his family's pack. "Shit, what are they doing here?" Dimitri said as he opened the door and climbed out. "What's going on?" Dimitri called out and Dominic's eyes closed before he turned around. Relief washed over Dominic when his eyes landed on Dimitri. The Commander ran forward and threw his arms around his mate, causing Dimitri to stumble backwards and fall onto the hood of the car. The loud arguing voices ceased as they turned toward Dimitri. Hughes ran his hand down his face, relieved Dimitri was okay. Anthony looked at the two who just arrived and anger quickly filled him. Hughes' men move out of his way as he stormed forward. "Where the hell have you two been? Do you realize you both almost c
Third Person's POV Dimitri pulls into the familiar driveway of his old pack and smiles when he sees his best friend leaning against the guard house. Beckett smirks as he pushes away from the building and walks toward Dimitri's car. "Goddess, did you not shower before you left? You fucking reek of sex!" Beckett's nose scrunches up as he climbs into the passenger seat and closes the door. Dimitri laughs and shakes his head before pulling his friend into a hug. "It's good to see you too, asshole!" "Oh my Goddess, your brother is driving me crazy! Why did you have to go and leave me?" Beckett said as he put his seat belt on. "I'm sorry, it was just never going to work out between us. I left you for a beautiful tall dark and handsome man." Dimitri said and Beckett threw his head back laughing as he shoved the Alpha's shoulder. "So, I couldn't find anything on this Leon's Valley pack. They must be on the DL because they're not registered and listed on the map." Beckett said as he op
Third Person's POV The further into Ethan's preheat he gets, the clingier he becomes. If he's not in his nest, he wants to be touching both of his mates. At first, he was okay holding the other's hand if he was in his mate's lap. But now, that's not enough. The Alpha laughed when Ethan practically pulled Claudius on top of him, just so he could hold both of his mates and wrap his body around them. The Alpha didn't mind, he loved having both of his mates on him like this. He loved it even more when he could feel the rumble of their chest as they both purred. Ethan was just like other omegas in preheat when it came to sleep, he loved it. But he wasn't like other omegas when it came to food. Most Omegas don't want to wake up to eat. Their mates struggle to get their Omega to eat. But with Ethan, that was not the case. With the slightest scent of food, Ethan was wide awake and eager to eat. His appetite increased, and he couldn't seem to get enough. Just mentioning food, had the Om
Third Person's POV Emmett couldn't look at Dominic, he was too ashamed. He lay there with his legs open and his head turned away from them as silent tears rolled down his face. Emmett squeezes his eyes closed and holds back a whimper as Dimitri examines the damage. Dimitri lets out a sigh, "You definitely tore yourself. But it doesn't look that bad. I only see one tear." Dimitri said and Emmett felt even more stupid. "Don't do that honey. You're not stupid. But we're not going to be able to have sex for the rest of your heat." Emmett's stomach dropped and his lip trembled. "Don't worry baby. There are other ways we can take care of you during your heat. We just won't be able to enter you until you're healed." Dimitri said as he reached for more gauze and peroxide. Dimitri glanced at Dominic when he felt his movement. Dominic lifted the ice pack and tried examining himself. Dimitri reached over and pressed against his knee, pushing Dominic's leg open further as he leaned in
Third Person's POV Dimitri's tongue slips into Emmett's mouth as he begins pushing his hips forward again. Tight walls stretch, hugging the Alpha's cock tight, pulling him in. Emmett feels the burn as he stretches. He feels the Alpha's cock moving deeper inside him. His fingers dig into Dimitri's back and he holds back a painful whimper. Once buried deep inside him, the Alpha grunts and rests his forehead against Emmett's forehead. Emmett lets out a shaky breath as he realizes he's no longer a virgin. He feels so much pressure, and so full. 'How in the world could I possibly fit two in there?' Emmett wondered and then bit his lip when the Alpha began drawing his hips back. It felt so strange feeling the Alpha's cock slowly leave him. Emmett let out a shaky breath as the Alpha slowly pushed his hips forward again. "Look at me, love." The Alpha said and Emmett realized his eyes were squeezed closed. Deep-blue eyes fluttered open and caused Dominic and Dmitri's hearts to s
