After losing both her parents and being injured at a very young age, then losing her grandparents less than ten years later, Zariah is put under the guardianship of the Alpha and Luna. She had been raised around alpha heir Isaac since she came to live with her grandparents. Isaac was protective of her from day one and never stopped. When Izzy turns eighteen, she gets her wolf, Onyx, and finds that Isaac is her mate. Although she is happy that he is the one, how can she trust the mate bond? After all, the mate bond killed her parents, and the mate bond killed her grandmother after her grandfather was killed. She wants to be positive that she can trust the bond before she accepts it. Meanwhile, she finds that her wolf is a rare wolf and there are dark witches who wish to drain her of her wolf's power. They also find out that there are two other alphas trying to kidnap her in order to use her for her abilities. She wonders if she will ever be done fighting. Whether it's the mate bond or assholes coming after her for her abilities, it seemed she would always be fighting. She was even fighting with herself! What would it take to end the fighting?
View MoreThat evening, at dinner, Heather asked, “So, mom, I’ve been waiting patiently all day. Are you going to tell us?” I looked at my mate and we both laughed. I answered, “I was wondering when you would ask. We are having a boy and a girl.” Heather smiled, “That’s perfect. Are you going to stop with them?” I shook my head, “No. The Goddess told me we will have a minimum of five.”Heather gasped, “Mom! Are you sure you will be able to handle it with your medical issues?” I smiled, “This is the Goddess’ plan for us. I will always follow her path for us. There are good reasons for each of them to be born, although I don’t know what they are yet.” Isaac added, “Besides, you know we love raising children. We had so much fun with you, Blaine and Lena.”Heather smiled, “Yeah, we did have fun. And you are young enough that you can still enjoy them. I keep forgetting that you guys were still teenagers when you adopted us. We are all so glad you did too.” I blew a kiss to her from across the table a
Three months later, Isaac and I were sitting in the doctor’s office waiting to get another ultrasound done. My doctor had been treating mine as a high-risk pregnancy because we didn’t know what was going to happen after all of my scar tissue was removed. We were hoping my uterine walls held up. Doctor Spink was certain that all was okay with it, but my doctor just wanted to keep an eye on it.When his nurse came out to get us, we went straight to our exam room and she smiled, “Your baby bump is already starting to get big. Are you planning to find out what you are having?” I chuckled, “Of course. We’re so excited. I really hope they cooperate.” She laughed, “Oh, trust me, we’ve met our fair share of uncooperative babies. We have our ways of getting the information we need.”She took my vitals and Isaac asked, “Can we please get a female doctor? It drives my wolf nuts to see a male doctor examining my mate.” She chuckled, “That’s a sign of a good mate. I can ask Amy, our nurse practitio
Six days later, I was in my office when Heather walked in and sat in one of the chairs across from me. I sat back in my chair and asked, “What’s up?” She smiled, “I just got back from getting my schedule and materials for school. I don’t need to take any of the Math classes, or the literature classes. I have to take at least one civics class and a bunch of electives to get my Associate of Science degree. I will be able to take the majority of my classes online too.”I raised my eyebrows, “That’s great, sweetie. What does your schedule look like?” She handed a piece of paper to me and I saw that she is doubling up on her credit hours. I asked, “Sweetheart, are you sure you want to take so many hours in classes?” She nodded, “I’m sure. These classes seem to be fairly easy. I think Chemistry and Biology might be a bit difficult, but not impossible.”I sighed, “Okay. I might be able to help some, but Aadi might be even more help. What is your civics class?” She answered, “I think it will b
Thursday evening, we all sat down for dinner, then we all noticed that Heather’s seat was empty. I asked, “Ben, have you heard from Heather yet?” Ben answered, “She called me at lunchtime. She said she may be late. She still had four more tests to take.”I nodded in understanding, “I bet she’s overthinking some questions. My daughter is most definitely a genius, but she does doubt herself a lot. Ben, you will have to keep that in mind and reassure her of her intelligence regularly.” Ben laughed softly, “She’s most definitely perfect for me. I tell her how smart she is all the time. She’s also a badass on the training grounds.”Isaac laughed, “Yes, she is. Just like her mother. Before Zariah was paralyzed, she could kick some serious ass. She put me on my ass more than once. She may not be able to use her legs anymore, but she can still pack a punch too.” I smiled, “The Goddess always puts us with our perfect partner.”Ben smiled, “I couldn’t agree more.” Blaine sighed, “Mom, Elizabeth
That evening, Isaac and I went home and found Aadi cooking dinner. I asked, “How are things with you? You look a tad bothered.” Aadi answered, “Not really bothered. Not mad either.” I laughed, “Okay. So, what’s the problem?”She answered, “Franco’s brother got here at around eleven this morning. As soon as they got out of the truck, Ben started sniffing the air and he hasn’t been able to stop. Franco has been so excited about it that he forgot to run to the store for me. I’m craving cookies and cream ice cream. I really wanted that for dessert.”I chuckled, “How about calling him now and asking him to stop?” She sighed, “I understand why he’s excited. His brother has scented his mate. He’s taking him all around the pack to see if he can find her. I’m just having a hormonal moment.” I looked back at Isaac and He chuckled, “On it.” He walked out the door and walked right back in.I furrowed my brows at him and he smiled, “I think I know who Ben’s mate is.” He ran upstairs and walked back
I had just finished updating the books for the pack’s business when my phone rang. The school counselor sounded quite irritated when he informed me that Heather had finished the tests. I thanked him and told him we would be there shortly.I rushed to my mate’s office and smiled, “She finished. Let’s go.” Isaac beamed, “Okay.” He jumped up and we left. He started to head toward the truck and I shook my head, “It’s going to take longer to get me in there than it would to just walk.” Isaac chuckled, “Okay, then. I’ll push your chair then.” I nodded, “Okay.”We made it to the school in a couple minutes because Isaac decided to run most of the way. We went to the principal’s office and we found him trying to seduce his secretary by kissing her neck. Isaac cleared his throat and we watched him look at us while continuing his seduction.When he realized it was us, he stood straight up, cleared his throat and stuttered, “A-Alpha, L-Lu-Luna, how may I help you?” I just shook my head in disappoi
The next morning at breakfast, Franco asked, “Alpha, is it okay if one of my little brothers comes down for a visit?” Isaac nodded, “Of course. How old is he?” Franco smiled, “He wants to look for his mate. He is sixteen.” I smiled, “Make sure to take him around the whole pack. Is he planning to spend a couple days?”Franco nodded, “He was planning to stay at least a couple of days. If he finds his mate in your pack, he is planning on asking permission to build a house.” Isaac agreed, “Of course he can. I will always welcome new pack members.”I reminded my mate, “I will be going to the school with Heather this morning to give permission for her to take the test to graduate early.” Isaac asked, “Isn’t she a bit young for that? She’s not even in high school yet.” I laughed, “She will be fine. She just isn’t being challenged enough right now. She wants to start college.”Isaac raised his brows at Heather, “Are you still wanting to be a doctor?” Heather nodded, “I am. I want to have my li
When we got to the kitchen table, everyone was there and Aadi looked like she was ready to burst. I chuckled, “Aadi, would you like to tell us your news first?” She laughed, “You got a visit too, didn’t you?” I nodded, “I did. But I will let you tell everyone what she told you first.”She grinned, “I know the path for both sets of twins.” Franco asked, “You do?” She nodded as she continued to tell everyone at the table everything the Goddess told me. She looked at me and asked, “Do you have anything to add?” I shook my head, “Nope. That covers everything she told me. I’m excited for them and they haven’t even been born yet.”Blaine asked, “Did she say when they would shift for the first time?” I answered, “I know your siblings will shift as toddlers. She didn’t give a specific age.” Aadi answered, “She didn’t tell me anything about when ours will shift.” I added, “But I would assume that if they were meant to go through everything together, then they would all shift together.”Heather
The meeting ended up lasting until late into the night as every unmated she-wolf wanted to see if Ben was their mate and we answered unending questions about the babies. I finally turned to Isaac and asked, “I wonder how many ways we can say that we don’t know what their path is?”Isaac laughed, “I don’t know, but I’m starting to wish we had not said anything about them.” I shrugged, “They’re just curious. All of our other kids had a purpose, so they are wondering about what will happen with these babies.” Isaac agreed, “I can understand that, but we already told them before the meeting ended that we didn’t know yet.”When we finally got home, it was late and even my night owl, Blaine, was ready to fall into bed when we got home. We said goodnight to the kids and went straight to our room. As soon as we were ready for bed, Isaac got under the covers and held his arm out to me.When I got under the covers, I immediately scooted over and tucked myself in with my head on my love’s chest.
“Thank you, Miss Franklin. I’ll tell mom you need to talk to her,” I assured as I walked out of the general store.Miss Franklin is the little grey-haired lady who owned the store. It was more than just a small grocery store to this little town. It was also the gas station, video rental, and a deli-style sandwich shop.Besides the bait shop and canoe rental next to the river two miles away, it was the only business in our town.Horseshoe Bend, Arkansas is a tiny town in neutral territory.It’s a town that has a great sense of community and it’s very close-knit.My parents always told me they didn’t like being in their old pack because the alpha didn’t pay the omegas for their work and treated them like dirt.They always told me that if I ever wanted to join a pack, make sure to ask if the omegas are paid.That was a good way to tell if it was a good pack.My parents were loving and doted on me, as the only child, but they never spoiled me.As unaffiliated wolves, they couldn’t afford ...
