~ Cleo ~ I was riding high off my post climax bliss until my hand pushes down on the door handle, where I enter the alpha office, to find Callie sitting down by the window. She shifts as she turns to find me entering, I think it’s the first time I have ever seen her lacking confidence. “Is
I appreciate her words, but she doesn’t know the story behind us, how for the last year I hadn’t even seen him. I hadn’t seen him since turning eighteen years old, I wouldn’t have recognised the mate bond without not seeing him. Just like I wouldn’t have done if my mate was a stranger to me. It
~ Jace ~ Today had been weighing heavily on all of our minds, the day we finally said goodbye to Aunt Alora. We all stood in silence, our head’s bowed as we stood on the beach, the golden sands underfoot as we gave thanks to the moon goddess. Gave thanks for her presence in our lives. Mum had
…. I don’t think this has ever happened before, two alphas of one pack. Mum and Dad are known as the two alphas, but when it comes to the Dark Phantom pack…Mum has always been the Luna, not a joint alpha. But Josie made it very clear that she would only agree to take on the Clear Waters pack if
~ Jace ~ Josie, Knox, Jaxon and I all make our way over to the pack gates. The pack was in celebration mode but it doesn’t stop the new alphas from wanting to check the security of the pack. When it comes to the safety of the pack, you never truly switch off. Being an alpha isn’t a job, it’s a
I find Jaxon, his snout sniffing at a footprint, one that seemed freshly imprinted into the ground. It wasn’t a bare footprint, which meant the person hasn’t shifted, or they weren’t even a shifter at all. But it was unlikely for humans to come to the pack gates, usually they make it to the beach
~ Jace ~ Colt acts quickly, rolling Knox’s wolf off him, remaining in human form as he crouches on the floor preparing for the next attack. Colt was always fast, but he still hasn’t defeated me at sparring, and it would be unlikely he would beat Knox who had a new pack bond pumping through his v
“That’s enough, you’re using too much.” Knox growls out from behind disapprovingly. “Just…a…little..further..” Josie pants out, as she concentrates all her energy Colt’s wound. With a sigh from Colt, his heart rate increases, the wound starting to heal over…his heart rate quickening. Relief f
Now was the moment of trust, I had to trust Ozborne, he hadn’t let me down this far… “Can you handle this?” I place a pistol gun out to him, offering it out for him to use. “Yes Alpha.” He takes it, examining the piece before removing the barrell and checking the number of bullets it was loaded w
~ Jace ~ Jaxon and I had driven throughout the night, heading up towards the mountainous region that in truth was a well known rogue area. A place that if you were in a pack, you didn’t tend to visit, and for good reason. Rogue life was deadly, vicious and cruel. One day you might be a ruler, th
Again the move not going unnoticed by him, or my own father. Who takes a step forward, his alpha aura pushing forward and mixing with mine. A smirk finally forms in the corner of the lips of this Alpha Darnell. His lips spreading out further into a devious smile before he pulls his aura back com
~ Cleo ~ I follow Callie into the alpha house, the internal design reminding me of the alpha house back at the Amber Desert pack. A lot of dark colours, riches on display to remind pack members of the hierarchy and where they belong in it. Perhaps Medea and Louise had a lot in common. “We
“Yes sir, born and raised. ” “You don’t smell like a rogue.” I comment. “Jace kind of made the beach club into a little pack, I guess I get away with it on a technicality.” He lifts his fingers into the air, making a quotation movement with both hands. “So what’s with the hat…and the whistle
~ Cleo ~ “We arent looking for trouble Dad. I just don’t feel comfortable letting Callie go alone. If Jace was here, he would go with her. They won’t do anything with another pack’s luna around. Besides, Ares is coming with us.” Dad blocks the very vehicle that Callie and I both plan to take.
I was different now, not only was I a marked woman…I was a Luna. I had a new strength from within me. The pack needs me to remain strong, which is why I have decided to return back today. The Varon’s still needed space to mourn and my own parents wanted to also give them time alone. Especially Kai
~ Cleo ~ We were at the end of the bed, just holding one another. Just inhaling each other’s scents. He had to leave, I know he does…but I can’t let him go. I can’t let go. “Please be careful.” I whisper into his ear, dropping my walls so that he could feel my anxiety through the mate bond.
There was far too much testosterone in this room right now. “Walking away?” “No, I’m checking on my mate who is unconscious, from healing your friend.” Knox grunts out as he moves towards the staircase, his lips snarling. Jace takes Knox’s place beside me without hesitation. He even places hi
