I sit taking in the mess of the drama my Dad has literally just exposed. I did not want this to come out like this. I had known as soon as Della had come and spoken to me, the moment the letter had been passed to me and I had begun to read it, I knew the time had come for our pack to step up, to do what we had been preparing for for years, since my Great-grandmother had died. Another gifted wolf had been blessed to our family. It was our job to protect her. Though she was yet to be aware she was even part of our family.I don’t know what would have been the best way to break this news to Violet, to Tate or to Hattie. It was such massive news. But I know my mate is going to be irate with me and I am likely to never hear the end of this. No doubt her seeing this as a betrayal of her trust. But when I had received the letter I had gone straight to my father and he had told me nothing was to be said to anyone other than us. It was to stay secret. He said he would know the moment he saw Vi
I take Violet’s hand as we walk from Lachlan’s office, he is such a dick, making reference to the fact he clearly knew he had disturbed us earlier. I swear I could smack him. Though I know he is trying to get a reaction from me like he always does.The meeting seemed to be fairly productive, we seemed to have strong ideas and plans in place. Or my Uncle did, and Lachlan to some degree. My Uncle seems to be the main planner for all of this, though he had been the one who experienced this or remembers this from the last time I assume. He also had experience of battles, so maybe it was best for him to plan. I trust his judgment without a doubt, but I am still terrified. His plans sounded good to me. I just hope they are enough to keep my girl safe. I do not want to lose her now she is with me. I feel her hand tighten around mine, making me smile. The tingles from her touch reverberated up my arm. I am loving having a mate, I truly am. How I had got this far in my life without her I do no
We walk into the suite, suddenly aware it is just the two of us again. It's a bit silly really, seeing as we have just walked all the way up here just the two of us. But now we are alone, and I am feeling all hot and bothered having him close to me. A little nervous too. How can he have that effect on me? Remembering what had been happening this morning before Alpha Jackass had disturbed us…‘Well, we can always jump on him’ Azaria suddenly pipes up from the back of my mind. ‘Carry on what we started earlier… wouldn't need to just remember then! Can make it all a real big, dazzling reality!’Why does that not surprise me that she has something to say? I swear she would chase him round and be forever jumping on him given the chance. Never get a thing done if I listen to her!‘But you’d have a big smile on your face’ Azaria says with a giggle.I still need Tate to teach me how to block her out. Horny devil that she is, don’t think I can cope with her doing this all the time!“Tate, how
I can feel my body trembling as Tate is laid next to me, unsure if it is from nerves or anticipation. His hand is on my waist, holding me close to him, the racing of my heart blending in with the racing of his heart…He pauses his gentle kisses to look down at me, softly moving my hair off my face. “Are you ok, Vi? You are trembling. You want to stop?” he whispers.Did I want to stop? Hell no I did not! Yes, I am a little nervous, not like this is something I have done before, perhaps something to do with the fact I had been led to believe I was two years younger than I actually am! Though in this instant, I am so glad for that, because it means this moment has been saved for Tate. Nerves aside, it is something I know I am wanting, and having learnt what fated mates are, I know that this guy is the one that I am meant to be with. The one that was chosen for me. This is meant to be. Not to mention he is hella handsome and has the body of a Greek god…‘Mmmm and we are going to get to se
I take in the sight of my mate naked. Certainly a vision of perfection. Like he is chiseled from marble. Though I have got to admit, I am a little terrified, he is going to hurt me with that thing! But I want him. I have never been more sure of anything…I slide off my panties as he positions himself between my legs. He lowers himself to kiss me, I feel his hardness pressing against me, as his fingers once again slide inside of me, teasing me, making me wetter for him. My legs part further for him, as he teases my clit with his thumb before thrusting inside of me, I gasp slightly, adjusting to his size, as he moves gently to allow my body to adjust to him.A moan escapes my lips, as he thrusts again, the sensation of him being inside of me, like nothing I could have imagined but yet something that feels so good. So right. Our bodies moving in time with one another, his thrusts pushing deeper and harder, making me scream his name in pleasure. I grip onto his hair as I feel his speed bu
I wake with my mate still snoozing in my arms, naked too, so I was in heaven! Not to mention the fact we were now marked and mated. That had been a hell of an afternoon. Though there were no complaints from me! My girl was sheer perfection. I wrap my arms tighter around her and pull her closer to me.I hear her sigh, a content sounding sigh. “Hey you” she whispers.“Hey to you too” I whisper back.“We fell asleep” she says, still sounding sleepy.I chuckle. “Mmmm, seems all the fun we had must have tired us out”. I gently kissed her on her head. “I am guessing you will not be wanting to go down to the dining room for dinner?” I grin at her.She pouts sleepily at me. Yeah, I think that answers my question. Looks like I am going to be cooking, or at least ordering in food for us. Though I would happily do anything to keep her happy, and to be honest, I would rather be keeping her to myself, not having to share her with the pack, having so many people trying to talk to us - especially if
After a lovely dinner cooked by Tate, and a relaxing bath, he ran for me. We had snuggled in bed once more. And before I knew it, the alarm was going off telling me it was time to get up for the day I had been dreading since the moment I knew I would have to plan it. I had been blessed that I had Lachlan, Tate and Hattie there to help me, as I had no clue how this sort of thing should go, what had been needed, but they had been there to help guide me, make sure nothing was missed.I think the day was going to be a perfect way to say goodbye to Aunt Della. As much as I did not want it to be final. Tate gently kissed my head, “You got this beautiful. And I am right by your side, where I am meant to be, ok?”I smiled up at him. I guess he gets to be there for me as a mate now, the way he had told me he had been desperate to be the moment he had discovered what had happened to Aunt Della, but that pack rules had meant he couldn’t. And even through begging Lachlan, he wasn’t allowed to tel
The day went as I had hoped, everything we had planned was perfect. I know that Aunt Della would say we made too much fuss, too many flowers or too much food, but I wanted to make sure she was remembered, that all that came would say I had done a good job for her. I didn’t want to fail in my last task for her. I missed her terribly, and this was my chance to show her that, show those who knew her that I loved her. Show them just how much she had meant to me. She has done so much for me over the years, this was my chance to do something for her. I wanted to do it well. And I think I had, with the help of my friends.The small church near to our home had been full of her friends, former colleagues and neighbours too. Aunt Della was clearly a much loved lady. So many lovely things were said to me today. I knew just how kind she was, she had shown that in her treatment and care of me so many times, but, I heard so many kind tales of things she had done to help people or of stories of her
Dear Diary… Well, how can life change in the space of a year? By a crazy amount when you learn your parents lied. Or perhaps not so much lied but kept secrets from you. Secrets do nothing but make life difficult. Make life twisted and they hurt when they are finally revealed. But the secrets in the end brought me the happiness and life I was meant to have. Could the secrets have been part of the fate that led me here? Who knows? Having learned the things I have about being a werewolf, and how the beliefs are, fate plays a big part in our lives. Perhaps the path my life took was all a part of fate's plan... A path that brought me to the Autumn Moon Pack. To Tate. The handsome, mysterious Beta. The sweetest, kindest man I had ever met, that I was able to call mine. All because of a goddess I had never heard of until I learned of my heritage as a werewolf, blessing him as my fated mate. My fated mate. My love. My future. And now the father to the little one I am carrying inside my
I wake up wrapped in the warm embrace of Tate. His head is resting on my shoulder. “Good morning beautiful” he whispers. I found myself chuckling. “Good morning to you too” I whispered back. “You know I am going to have to get you up and out of bed shortly for your training.” He says with a sigh. “Euurrgghh!” I grumbled. “But the bed is so warm and comfy!” Training has been going on almost each day since we returned to pack six months ago. Lachlan was relentless. Though I can’t blame him, Azaria was just as unrelenting too in her necessity for me to refine these gifts of mine and in her need to make me as strong as she could, both physically and mentally. “Oh. You mean you don’t want to stay in bed because of your handsome mate?” Tate huffs, flipping himself, so he was suddenly on all fours, leaning over me. I find myself smirking at his playfulness. We had most definitely refined our relationship and our gifts… “Perhaps I was just coming to that…” I teased,
The doctor leads us into Damien’s room. He is not looking good. Though what would I know? I am not a doctor. But he looks like he is at death’s door. And it scares me. But he is in the right place. Tate had told me this hospital had some good doctors, and I am sure Lachlan would do what he could to make sure he got the best care possible. Pierce led the rest of the family into the room. All looking equally shocked by the state of my grandfather. I doubt the doctors would allow us all to stay in here together for long before trying to throw us out. “What has the doctor said?” Adam asks, I am surprised he is here, expecting him to be with his son, though I can only assume his mate is there, as I have not seen here since we arrived. Lachlan looks up from where he was standing by the side of the bed, his grandfather not having moved since we walked in here. His eyes not having moved from his brother in the bed. “The doctor said he is stable now. Though he is badly injured. He
I watch her. Doing whatever it was she was doing. Speaking as someone else through her body? She is unreal. How did she manage that? Her eyes shifted, to a deeper blue. She looked like she was from another world for those few moments she spoke. An aura radiating off her that gave that otherworldly glow. The voice coming from her was unrecognizable to me. But the look on my grandfather’s face changed instantly. Color draining from his skin. Eyes wide open as he looked at her, and I could see tears in his eyes. ‘What the fuck?’ I mindlink Tate. ‘Not a clue. I thought Azaria was going to talk, she can do that like most of us can. But that is not her voice. That voice is not Azaria's. I do not know who that is.’ Tate says, yet his eyes have not left his mate. He looked fearful for her, not knowing what to expect. All these gifts are new to us. We don’t know how she will be with them. During them, or after them. What effect they could have on her. But Azaria clearly felt the
I stood watching Lachlan walking away from me. My skin turning cold hearing my brother’s name echoing through my mind. How can they seriously expect me to want to help him? He killed our mother. Kidnapped her. Then tortured her to the point of her death. No. Have they lost their damn minds? I look to Pierce. His eyes are dark, but he is watching me. A sad smile on his face. He knew of this? I find myself struggling to speak. No. Have they lost their damn minds? I can hear voices surrounding me, but they are not registering in my mind. This is madness. This made no sense. They had brought my brother back here. To the pack we had him exiled from. What the hell was Lachlan thinking? Was he even fit to be an Alpha of our great pack? Does he not know what this man was capable of? Suddenly, a hand is on my shoulder, snapping out of my angry mind wandering. I realize there are many more unfamiliar faces surrounding me now. Unfamiliar. But yet they have a hint of familiarit
I stand waiting within the pack hospital as requested by my grandson. Things seem so hectic in the pack. My son dashing off here and there. I hate being old and not quite so able to help anymore. That used to be part of the role of Alpha I loved the most, the drama… the action. And I have to say it was something I missed as I got older, as I handed down the role to my son. Lachlan’s call was unclear. The signal was not good, and the reasoning behind him wanting me at the hospital was not quite explained. He just asked me to be here, saying I would be the best candidate for a blood donor if needed. I am not going to decline that, if somebody needs my help, it is there, no matter how old I am. I may feel like an old and decrepit man most days, but if I am still capable of helping, if it is needed, then I will be there. I may not be able to do much as a former Alpha and I miss that role and all that came with it, but if I can help, then they could rely on me. I had got here as quic
I watch as they drive away with my grandfather in the back of the truck. Fear is filling me. He looked dead. I was pushing toward him, trying to get to him, wanting to try to heal him. But Tate was mindlinking me, telling me to stand back, to not try this for the first time on him, not to risk his life further when I am not sure of what I am doing. Lachlan is taking charge. The voices are just a blur to me. I hear Adam saying that my grandfather’s wolf is dead. How can that be? He has been suffering, and nobody seemed to know other than his son. How much pain had this man had to endure? “Violet, come on now, we need to go.” Tate is leading me to a waiting car. I can only assume we are heading back to Autumn Moon. Azaria seems to have retreated once more. She is meant to be a gifted wolf yet seems to spend most of her time hiding in the outer edges of my mind. Though my lack of experience of how to deal with her maybe doesn’t help. My body was in a daze. Nothing around me reg
I feel my wolf pushing through and shifting once more, my body adjusting and altering of its own accord, turning into Rye, the dark gray form of my wolf. He seems to have pushed me right to the back. I can sense his anger. I don’t know what happens, but he is suddenly moving toward the two wolves still fighting alongside us, and before I know it, and because they are so engrossed in attacking one another, Rye pounces… Bringing his jaw down on the neck of the Alpha, clamping his teeth into the neck and sinking them in before twisting. The Alpha realizes what is happening and tries to fight back, but the grip Rye has is too tight and the way in which the Alpha is moving is only making the situation worse for himself, as I hear a galling snap as his neck breaks, and he falls from the grip of Rye before Lachlans’s wolf takes him and attacks him once more, making sure he is dead. Aggressively dropping him to the floor once he is done with him, before his human form is suddenly pu
I check on little Alfie. He is still snoozing, his little eyes tightly shut as he is swaddled in his blankets tightly to protect him from the outside elements, as well as having been in the protective embrace of his parents as we have alternated in carrying him since leaving the hospital. He has slept so soundly since we left, and I am glad. Hopefully, he will stay that way until we reach this new pack. I did not expect all of this, but deep down I have to say I am glad. Our pack never offered us much, and the hospital did not have much in the way of options for our little one. We feared we would lose him. Hopefully, our new pack may be able to give us hope for a future for me and my family. My mate and our little one. The pain of losing our firstborn tore us down, but we worked through it and decided to try again. We were overjoyed to discover we were expecting another pup. Our beautiful child. The creation of our love and happiness of being mates. Only to discover he too had th
