Lilith's POVThe night drags through as I lay between Khai and Theo in the aftermath of our love making.Their bodies doing the one thing I'm lacking the ability to do.I should be sleeping yet I cannot quieten my mind down enough to be able to fall into slumber, instead my mind is racing and as is my heart.Silence meets me from every direction yet there's also a sense of happiness coming from deep within that seems to have me so excited that I'm confused.Is it me, or these two babies that currently reside deep within my belly that are making me feel this way?At first I had panicked, my anxiety through the roof and I even contemplated for a small moment about not having these two innocent children.But the more I've had time to think it over I've realised that their appearance isn't such a bad thing.I love kids, I love Lora and to procrastinate over her having no siblings makes me sad.So the ability to give them these two siblings is a blessing and I realise that she will be a tr
Theo's POV"The borders are clear," Leo reports despite not ha ing actually ventured out to Amy border pet my request.His wolf is black, his inner self a true alpha and no doubt if an attack were to happen they would presume he were me and I have no doubt they would attack with the intent to kill.And I cannot put him in that type of danger.Not after all he's done for us and after all he and Tabitha have lost.And especially not now knowing he has Arlo who he must be around for.So I refuse to have him patrolling and the furthest out I will allow him is the training ground.He doesn't like it, feels utterly ground down yet I also feel relief coming from him at times and that is the emotion that confounds me.He’s relieved not to be in charge, his role now more affordable to him now than that of the charge being alpha has be laid to rest.And I suppose I get it.The responsibility of being in charge does take its toll.The insistence of being need from every avenue as you turn in eve
Hati’s POV“Hati,” zeus greets me wirh a cigar in one hand and smirk on his lips.He’s sitting in my office, a smile on his face as he waits for me to enter.He’s come unannounced and I’m not to happy about that.He has no invitation but I suppose I can ask for that update on whether he will be taking me up to the god realm.“Zeus,” I greet him in passing. Walking to the line jars of alcohol to pour myself some whisky.It’s been a long day of licking naughty children uo and releasing those who have done their time.It’s a gruelling job but not one I’m willing to shy away from.I suppose that’s because I truly love drinking in their emotions as I close that door and lock them into the darkness I control.The rush of being the the one in charge gives you endorphins like no other and I crave that.Crave it until my end, and I hope my end comes soon.The end of this miserable life and the repetition of the last millennia.“What do I ow for this pleasure?” I ask taking my seat.“The reques
Theo's POVWe're all sat around my desk after the first rehearsalOf what we've planned of something we're to go wrong.Leo is the factor that only we will know about.He will be the dominator that swats things in our favour.And it's his job to ensure first and foremost Lilith, Lora and the twins are taken to safety followed by Tabitha and Arlo.As an alpha it will be expected that I rush to scene to defend not only my land but my people and our integrity amongst other things and we all agreed that it would be suss if I were to stay behind to ensure Lilith was not taken again.Besides, Leo has proved his ability to protect the people within this pack in the most loyal way possible and I won't disrespect him by pushing his aside whilst training the packs highest members for the future outcomes that may arise."So you see we need the element of surprise because Damian's warriors will come in groups. He will never send the full force in the first round. He will wait u Til our warriors h
Khai’s POVI never thought I’d openly leave the pack alongside Theo but I have.We’ve travelled three packs over to Alpha Danes pack.We’re hoping to pull him on side, to have his pack as an element of surprise if the need ever arose.Dane doesn’t follow rules much and he actually never takes part or joins in with the other packs around us.His choice to keep him, his land and his people as private as possible has always been a novelty yet he’s the only one damned stupid enough to expect privacy in a world there privacy isn’t a thing.He agreed to this meeting without a second of thought. Giving us permission to travel to him and we got through his borders quickly also.And now we’re driving through the winding roads towards the centre of his land.Unlike other packs he keeps all of his members towards the centre of his thirty acres of land.As we drive through the tree surrounded road we see nothing, though we can hear the wolves breathing, their paws breaking branches and crushing l
Lilith's POVI hadn't wanted them to leave earlier this morning but they claimed they had to, alpha business and all that.So here I am stuck with Tabitha in the house as the heavens have opened.We had hoped to take the kids out in the sun, to perhaps walk with them in their carriers until they fell asleep.But instead we are sitting at the kitchen table, words haven't flowed very easily and I feel as if there's a wedge between us that wasn't there before my latest heat."Thank you for caring for Lora back then," I say. Hoping this might trip her out of her quietness."No problem," she trails off. Her words unfinished, unsaid."Are you okay?""Yes, why wouldn't I be?" She asks all defensive.I look her over, she seems okay.Lost that belly completely, she's holding Arlo in her arms as I am Lora. She still looks fresh faced, if not a few rings of purple on her under eye.She doesn't look as if she's just had a baby, not really but she has and I'm going to put this behaviour down to la
Theo’s POVThe meeting with Alpha Dane went precisely how I wanted it to.We spent most of the morning discussing potential ways for our blacks to forge a way forth.The ideal and most prestige offer was the loan of forty warriors that will live within my pack as my pack members but follow his rule and his training.In the event of a breach they will congregate off, hiding themselves only to strike when the opposing person thinks they have the upper hand.And with the underground bunkers that will enable them to do that.Though I will have to tweak the lockdown mode but that isn’t a problem.As long as there’s only a few people able to open the underground safe house before the few hours there shouldn’t be a risk.I’ve already summarised there will be six of us.Khai and myself being two of them as well as Lucas, the head of our warriors and the head of Danes warriors.That leaves space for one other to take control of the choice of who can and cannot leave the safety of the bunkers a
Khai’s POVSo I didn’t manage to convince Theo to allow our women to apply for the warriors. But we did get the help we needed and plus some.We have new men coming into our pack, men that could be potential mates for our abundance of women.Perhaps some might say that that would be a problem, why introduce men to mate with our females if we’re only having female children as it is.But it’s the mate part that’s the wanted part.Our members might find their mate, some of the olde row men who refuse to leave our lands might find the one fated to them from Celeste.Perhaps they won’t, it’s a possibility but having even a small percentage that some of our she-wolfs find their gated is enough to be gleeful.Though I’m not sure how they might feel.Would they leave to join Danes land to follow their man or would they expect their mate to come here permanently?I muse of lover this in the last leg of our journey home.We’d stopped just inside the borders, made the first instalment of men pl
