Luna Dela Sandra's POVI stayed in the garden for over a few hours waiting for Whisper to come back out of the only place that she can hide from the cruelty that has surrounded her for almost a year. I stared at my home, the place I was happy and raised my boys, it’s not the same now and when we entered it last night, I could feel the evil that has taken it over. I told Rafael last night that something was very wrong here as we made our way up the stairs to our old room. He pointed to the brick that now seals off the garden entrance as he mind linked me, “evil has a strong hold here, but it fears what lies beyond those doors.” I stopped and looked closely at the brick, and it was there in plain sight, a strong evil ruin holding the bricks in place. When we entered our room the darkness that surrounded us, trying to invade our beings vanished at once and we knew then that we had hard work ahead of us. Rafael sighed with relief as he sat on our bed, “It’s worse than we imagined,”
Whisper's POVI walk to Alpha Michael’s Garden that is flourishing with beauty and has flowing fountains and statues. I miss the garden that I tended for a year, how beautiful it was just this morning, the amount of work it took to make it flourish and how much joy it gave to me.His voice breaks my thoughts he shows me his heir and he is adorable, a tiny version of his father, so sweet, so innocent I can’t help but touch his cubby cheek. His name is Shawn and Alpha Michael asks me to help raise him, yet his mother is inside. That’s when he tells me that his mother is a criminal and tried to kill me.I think he means when I was Sadie, but then he tells me that Alpha Drake saved my life the night I shifted and he took me away. He himself was shot with an arrow dipped in wolfsbane and yet still flew us to his territory safely. I can’t stop the smile that curls on my lips, he risked his own life to save mine and my heart flipped in my chest.Alpha Michael takes my hand, “come you sai
Alpha Drake's POVStaring at the brick wall after using all my power the 2nd time and it didn’t’ move, my mind started wondering what magic was this? Martin had done the incantation, and it was a simple spell, so why can’t I shatter the fucking thing. I stared at the wall and suddenly a ruin appeared glowing bright orange as if someone was removing it from a barrier, but who put a ruin there, it was just supposed to be a brick wall to seal off the garden. The wall began to crumble and then I saw her. My beast roared in my head, wanting and needing to go to her. I flung my power out and the doors burst open, and she spun around. Her eyes shedding streams of tears and my beast howled in my head, “stop our MATE, GET OUR MATE.”The scent of sweet peaches and cream swirled around me and before I could move her words floated to my ears, her voice was sobs and just above a whisper, “you broke your promise and now I must leave you.” The portal behind her opened and I lunged yelling out
Alpha Michael's POVI sit in my office fuming over her admission to the entire pack, “why, why did she have to tell them she’s a witch, they’ll hate her.”Beta Justin scoffs, “you knew, why didn’t you do some damage control before her return, you could have said something, made people aware, you could have at least told me.”I turn looking at him, “she said the same thing, that I had 12 months to do something,” I sit in my chair behind my desk and shake my head, “maybe it’s not her that has changed and it is me.”He stares at me, “she doesn’t remember anything of pack life, of you, of any of us,” he shook his head, “Michael, we’ve been best friends our entire lives, if you truly are fated to Whisper now, you need to start all over, remember her bond is sealed, she doesn’t feel it as you do, you will have to win her heart as human men do, without the bond to guide you.” I nod my head, “a lot has changed in 12 months, I’m a father now and I need her to be his mother, he deserves someone
Whisper's POVWaking up I knew I had to do something different, I need to give this a chance, I once had feelings for this man and even if I can’t remember that he does. I know I’m different then the Sadie he knew, she doesn’t exist any longer and that has to be difficult for him, but did he treat her this way, so brutally and harshly? I shake away that thought, no he couldn’t have, she was different probably timid and weak and would have went along with whatever he wanted, pleasing him in any way she could, just so he wouldn’t reject her for being part witch. I shake my head and conjure a dress that will remind me of Alpha Drake, his alluring eyes, the golden ring that surrounds the vibrant green. I hear a soft knock on the door and spin to see Alpha Michael, “good morning beautiful,” he says in a sexy baritone voice, and I’m stunned when my heart does a flip in my chest. I give him a bright smile and ask about my past since he would know more than I do. Her voice sends a shive
Grandma's POVI sit a cup of tea in front of Marie as we wait for Whisper to come, “I’m excited to hear how it is going with Alpha Michael,” I say with enthusiasm.Marie nods, “I only hope she is happier and not stuck in a garden for almost a year,” she frowns, “I had such high hopes for the two of them,” her eyes well with tears and she blinks them back.I shake my head, “we did what was right, I know this now, you can’t blame yourself for what happened,” I wave my hand towards the window, “he was not worthy of someone as special as Whisper.”She glares at me, “then why are they destined, you mock it now?”I shake my head, “no, I mock nothing, he had his chance to prove himself as worthy and stuck her in a garden, leaving her there crying and lonely.”Her eyes widen to me, “you went there, you saw?”I nod, “I needed to know she was safe after one of her visits, when she found out about the ruins, she doesn’t know,” I squint my eyes at her, “and doesn’t need to.”She sighs heavily, “I
Alpha Michael's POVMy jaw is clenched tightly as I watch the doctor finish his 6 month exam of our pup who is nestled snuggly in Sybil’s arms, she coo’s at him and his tiny hand caresses her cheek. “He’s growing rapidly Alpha Michael, thanks to all the nutrients his mother supplies,” he looks at Sybil. He nods at me, “start feeding him some soft foods, but he must still supple from his mother,” he looks at her fondly.I can’t help but narrow my eyes at it. Is something going on here, between the two of them? My brow arches and I chuckle, “okay, should I have her move into his fucking room too?” I can’t help the sarcasm I’m feeling at the moment. Shawn is a wonderful pup, but he has his moments and one of them hit this morning, it’s why she is still here, he wouldn’t allow her to leave him, he turned red with anger as she handed him off to me and wouldn’t stop crying until she held him again. The doctor’s eyes widened to me, “Alpha Michael that is totally your call, I have noth
Alpha Drake's POVI lay on the soil in the flower bed staring up at the stary night, the moon hanging overhead is ½ full and clouds dance around it. Riley came out with my dinner and stayed with me for a while. When I asked him to tell me everything that happened within the last year, he shook his head, “there’s no way I could tell you everything Drake, especially since I only witnessed a few bits and pieces of it, but I can tell you that I will never understand why she stayed here.”“I was that cruel to her, really?” I ask because I just can’t understand how I could be to someone that was so innocent, pure and good.He shook his head with a frown, “you had your moments Drake, where you charmed her, where you were,” he gulped, “Drake again, like right now,” he shrugged, “but once you were inside the pack house, you just were evil to her, cruel almost vile.”My heart clenched at his words and I bit my inner cheek, my beast whimpered inside my head, and I couldn’t say anything because
Beta Riley’s POVIt’s been hours since Alpha Drake left for Whisper’s decision, part of me fears she rejected him and he now doesn’t feel like this huge party he arranged but when a portal opened in front of the pack house doors and 3 people stepped out, my eyes widened. I approached with caution, especially the werebear, when one of the woman spoke, “I’m Solanda, Whisper’s grandmother,” she says quickly her hand goes to her companions, “this is Marie and Joe, friends of Whisper’s, she opened the portal for us to come and wait for her,” she shrugs, “in case she decides to come here, that is.” She looked around and her eyes fell on the fountain that Drake had created of Whisper, and she smiled, “he captured her true form, her love for life, the earth, the sun and the moon.”I couldn’t help but hold on to the hope that she would return with Alpha Drake, she is perfect for him, and he already adores her more than she knows. I mind link my mother to come over and meet them, while we wa
Alpha Drake’s POVI heard a twig snap in the distance and then the bow released and knew what was happening again, I lunged for Whisper and covered her on the ground as an arrow stuck in the tree right next to Alpha Michael’s head. I stood immediately offering her my hand, I pulled her to my chest and covered her with my wings. I turned to see who was growling and seen the werebear, Joe pulling a screaming she-wolf out of the tree line. Then Alpha Michael shifted, his wolf growling and snarling heading right towards us. I flapped my wings and took Whisper with me as we hovered above watching what he would do. My only thought was to keep her safe, I couldn’t control my body, or my beast from the want and need of her being this close. My cock hardened and my beast clawed at my insides to be released, I pushed him back and held her, becoming intoxicated by her sweet scent of peaches and cream. Her arms tightened around my neck, her voice was so sweet, I knew she wasn’t talking to
Grandma’s POV (Solanda)I watched as she walked up and began speaking to Alpha Drake and Alpha Michael, both have faults, and both want my granddaughter as their mate. When Whisper told them that she wanted both of them, I nearly fainted, thank the goddess Marie was standing close to me and kept me upright. I shook my head, but was pleasantly surprised when Alpha Drake agreed and I watched him, his eyes shown with so much love for Whisper it was heartwarming, to see an Alpha concede to his mate, to only want her happiness above his own was tremendous, especially someone who had not long ago only saw her as a means to an end. When Alpha Michael dismissed the idea so quickly it was a red flag, he was not as vested as he led me or even Whisper to believe. His feelings were not genuine, and his eyes shown with a blatant distrust as she lost control of her power, her body levitated up and her voice boomed about Sybil still being alive, I could see the hurt she felt as she glared at Alp
Whisper’s POVI looked at Joe as we watched my grandmother and Marie walk through a portal heading to my mates, I smiled at him, “thank you for yesterday and today, being here with me.”He nodded, “sure thing, are you ready? Have you made your decision?”I shake my head, “not really, but I have to face them both at the same time and also deal with the pull of the bond for the 2nd time,” I inhale a deep breath, “let’s go.” I take his hand and create a portal, further from the spot where the others are so I can walk up on them and gather the strength I need for the decision I will ultimately make.We step out and I release Joe and smile at him as I walk away, I know he is right behind me following and I feel a tingle in my heart, and believe that the once bound bond is now freed. My wolf stirs in my head and howls MATE and my eyes sting with tears. I stop and speak to her, “calm yourself, we have two mates, and we need to chose wisely for our own good.” She whimpers in my head and
Joe’s POVI watch as Whisper and Solanda appear through a portal in front of our house, Marie jumps out of her chair and runs to hug Whisper, “sweet girl, how have you been, it’s been so long.”Whisper smiles sweetly at her, “I’m sorry if you worried, I was enjoying life in the human world and was very successful at it,” she arches a brow, “without using my powers.”I couldn’t help but smile at that, Marie and I have done the same thing and enjoy it, I won’t say that she doesn’t use her powers to clean the coffee shop, but she bakes from scratch because she loves doing it. They all come on the porch, Marie sits back in her chair as Whisper and Solanda sit on the swing. Whisper begins speaking, “I visited both Alpha’s and have found many differences in them, some aren’t as appealing as others.”Both woman arch brows to one another, but stay quiet as Whisper continues, “Alpha Michael,” she sighs, “he is treating Sybil almost as if she is his mate.” Both woman gasp and stare at Whispe
Whisper’s POVMy spirit enters the garden and I can’t believe what I’m seeing, the gardens are breathtaking and people are all over it, not tending to it, but setting up for a feast or a party maybe. I watch some of the omega’s that I remember scurry around covering tables with lavender color table cloths, gold linen napkins in the shapes of leaves and a smile curls on my face. They speak to each other and are so happy and full of life as the garden becomes a venue for a night to remember. I look around and see a fountain and smile at the wolf howling as water flows. Joy fills me and then laughter breaks out as Beta Riley walks out pushing a rack of chairs, his mother Luna Dela Sandra is right behind him, “hurry Riley we have so much to do before tomorrow.”He chuckles, “yes, Luna I know and where is Alpha Drake, isn’t he supposed to be helping?”She laughs, “he was out here all morning tending to it just like every morning before he goes to training and then breakfast, you know h
Whisper’s POVI step out of the portal and still have a day left before we will all meet here for my wolf’s decision, but I’ve learned that I have a say in this as well. My wolf usually doesn’t speak to me, but I feel her anxiety over all this and the poor thing is torn up inside, she wants both, but knows that is not what will happen, 2 Alpha’s, 2 territories and one mate, how can that even work.I told her we would mediate, allow our spirit to go and see what our Alpha’s have been up to and then we will have a better understanding of which one really wants us the most, have they changed what needs to be changed or if they haven’t done anything for us to want them.I decided to go to Alpha Michael’s first, he’s the easier of the two, he won’t detect me at all, I’ve learned a great deal with my magic, but Alpha Drake always senses me somehow, maybe it’s because he has similar powers. I allow my spirit to drift and find Alpha Michael at a pack meeting and listen and watch as many thi
Sybil’s POVLiving back in the pack house next to my son is a dream come true, I might still be guarded and looked upon poorly by some, but I don’t care. Am I sorry for what I did, some of it, would I do it again? I sit watching my pup sleep in my arms as I rock next to the window looking down upon the garden. Thinking of what I would do differently, I wouldn’t have tried to kill Sadie, I would have made sure I did it and all this could have been avoided. I shake my head, it would have been easier to just slit her throat, let her bleed out in that cave and leave her there to rot away. I stand and put Shawn in his crib and go to my adjoining room and dress to impress. Now that she is gone, I have time to win my Alpha’s heart and with Shawn cuddled next to me at all times now I have the perfect ammunition. I can win Alpha Michael’s affection by being a doting mother, show him how our son cannot possibly live without me and neither can he. I watched Sadie, how damsel in distress
Alpha Michael’s POVI sit in the spot that will decide my fate with Whisper, I’m sure she will choose the other Alpha, she lasted 12 months with him, me only 6 so I really don’t know why I even showed up. I think of all that has happened since Whisper left that night and what has happened in the past 6 months.I went to Sybil with Sadie’s journal that Whisper left for me, Sybil said that everything was all in Sadie’s head, that none of it was true, she explained away all of it as Sadie’s overactive imagination. She frowned at me and placed her hand on top of mine, “she’s gone, isn’t she?” I sighed, “yes, she’s gone, she will make a decision on her birthday.”She blinked at me, “a decision on what?”I frown, “me or the other Alpha who claims to be her destined.”She nods with a knowing smirk on her face, she pats my shoulder, “you did your best I’m sure Alpha Michael,” she walks towards the door heading out of the nursery, “perhaps if she does chose him, the goddess with bless you w
