I jumped up from my chair, shut and locked the door. I took Lena’s hand and asked, “Would it be okay for me to hug you?” With tears in her eyes, she nodded. We went over to my couch and I held her tightly, comforting her with my mother luna aura. She was crying the most hurtful cry I had ever heard and it caused me to cry.

I continued looking into her memories as I held her and let her let it all out. The level of abuse in all forms just totally floored me. I kept trying to find out where her mother was during all this. It didn’t take long before I found her mother.

Her mother’s chosen mate had not just beaten her mother until she was near death, but he also cut her throat with a silver knife. When he finished, he approached Lena, “Now no one is stopping me.” That was when the emotional and physical abuse turned into attempted sexual abuse. It was only because she had been taking our self-defense classes that he was not successful.

When Lena’s crying settled down, I asked, “Do you have

    Alex backed up until he was next to her, “He didn’t report her death?” She shook her head, “No. He killed her and he did not have anyone to blame it on. He was trying to avoid punishment, but he also liked torturing me by making sure I could smell her.”I shook my head and tried to keep the tears from falling. Alex looked at me, “I will call the hospital and have them get her body out of there as soon as he is out of there. Then we can have a funeral for her.” Lena and I nodded our heads in agreement.Alex left Wendy and my warriors with me and started to leave only stopping to remind me, “Don’t forget to tell our Alpha.” I laughed, “I’m sure he’s already trying to hurry up and get to me.” He nodded in agreement, “I have no doubt.”Lena and I finished eating and we started walking back to my office. As soon as we got there, my mate walked in and Lena immediately dropped her gaze to the floor, “Alpha.” I smiled, “Lena, it’s okay. She looked at me and I introduced her to my mate, “Alpha

    Lena sat straight up and started shaking all over. I ran to her and wrapped my arms around her. While Isaac spoke with Alex about what was happening, Lena cried on my shoulder.I whispered words of encouragement and comfort to her while I rubbed circles on her back. I started crying with her because no child should have to be terrified of an adult who helped raise them.When her crying reduced to just a few tears falling once in a while, Isaac asked, “Lena, I know this is hard for you, but do you have a picture of him?”She nodded, “Their wedding photo is on my mom’s dresser in the master bedroom. He doesn’t have any pictures on his dresser, so you can’t miss it. I really can’t go back into that house. My mom’s phone is on the dresser too. There might be some photos of him in it.”Alex produced a clear bag and asked, “Is this her phone?” She nodded with tear filled eyes, “It is. Can I look at the pictures?” Alex took the phone out of the bag and handed it to Lena.Lena took the phone a

    TRIGGER WARNING: DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DOMESTIC ABUSE IN THIS CHAPTERAs we all walked to the house, we tried to keep the conversation light while Isaac ordered pizza. I asked Lena, “Do you play video games?” She nodded, “I’m old school though. I like Tetris and other puzzle type games.”I smiled, “You’re going to love our games then. We have my old Sega system from when I was a kid.” She gasped, “I love the old Sega games!” I smiled, “It is set up in my old room, which is about to become your new room. If you want to redecorate it, we can do that. You just let me know what you think.”We were almost at our house when some of our warriors ran ahead of us. Lena asked, “What are they doing?” I sighed, “They are going to search the house to clear it of any bad guys if they are hiding in there. It has happened before.” She gasped, “Really?”I nodded, “I am a special wolf. Do you know what that is?” She nodded and I continued, “There are a lot of alphas who want a special wolf in their pa

    When everyone calmed down, we agreed to come up with a plan to capture Anthony Reynolds alive. We have too many high-ranking men who want to see him suffer as he dies slowly and painfully.We also agreed to keep Lena guarded. She will not be left alone for even a minute. At night, she will have a warrior posted below her bedroom window. That warrior will not be allowed to move unless he has someone to take his place for a break.We agreed that we would leave it up to her if she feels safe going to school until Anthony is put in our cells and/or dead. If she chooses to stay home, then she can either come to work with me and Wendy can work on her homework on my couch, or she can stay home with Wendy and four other warriors in and around the house. She can do her homework at home.Isaac and I wanted to make sure she knows that she is not on lockdown. The warriors are not there as guards to keep her locked up. They are her bodyguards to keep her safe. If she wants to come to the pack house

    I heard a man groan loudly and Wendy walked out of the closet, “The threat has been neutralized.” She placed her weapon on the dresser and walked back into the closet. When she emerged from the closet, she was dragging a screaming Anthony Reynolds, with a gunshot to his thigh, behind her and I heard a loud series of growls behind me.Apparently, I had been followed by Isaac and the rest of our guards. Isaac growled, “How did you find that door?” Anthony answered, “It’s not like it was very well concealed.” I walked to him and placed pressure onto his wound with my foot, “Who told you about that door?”Anthony growled in pain, “You fucking bitch!” I stomped hard on his leg, hearing bone break, “Tell the TRUTH!” He growled, “I knew your grandfather. He had me install the door before you came here from the hospital.” I shook my head, “It’s too bad that’s the last time you will remember it’s there.” I turned him to the warriors, “Take him to the cells.”I hurried to Lena and wrapped my arm

    I woke the next morning to the sight of my mate’s nose gently rubbing against mine, “Good morning, my luna.” I chuckled, “Good morning, my alpha. What time is it?” He smiled, “It’s four a.m. Would you like to hit the gym for a while before our daughter wakes up?” I smiled, “I would love that.”I got out of bed, changed into a sports bra and leggings, then we walked hand-in-hand to our home gym. As we started our stretches, I asked, “So, what made you think of working out this morning?” He smiled, “I received a visit from the Goddess last night. She told me that you will be training Lena. I thought it would be a good idea for us to practice together and get back into our former routine.”I nodded, “I agree. I think that would be a really good idea.” He suggested, “Maybe we should think about going back to evening sparring practice too.” I consented, “I think Lena would love to practice sparring as a family. I would like to start our runs again, but I don’t want to risk Lena’s safety unt

    Our daughter jumped in excitement and I asked, “Are you done eating breakfast?” She cringed, “Oops.” She sat down, “I can’t let this go to waste. It’s my favorite.” I smiled, “Plus, you will need the carbs and protein for your morning workout. We will practice sparring as a family in the evenings.”Lena smiled widely as she nodded, “That sounds like so much fun.” I added, “We’ll do strength and cardio training in the mornings. Okay?” She smiled, “I want to do that. I will never be weak again.” I smirked, “You tell them, sis!”After eating, Isaac went to the pack house to do some paperwork while I stayed to help Lena with her morning training. I spent time with her, coaching her on running, the weights, the dumbbells, the treadmill, the sit-up bench and the pull-up bar. By the time we were done, she was ready for a shower, but she looked more self-confident and happier.I asked, “What do think about this morning workout idea?” She fidgeted her feet, bouncing slightly, “It gives me more

    Lena immediately looked at me with her eyes wide and her hand covering her mouth, “Sorry Gamma Alex!” Winnie and I looked at each other with amused expressions and started laughing wildly. I laughed, “Sweetie, that was awesome! Trust me, Alex can handle it.” I couldn’t stop laughing to save my life and neither could Queen Winnie.Alex approached us, “Well, is it safe to say you have found out what her current ability is?” We all started laughing all over again. I stopped, wiping a tear from my eyes, “Oh my Goddess. That was so funny. Yes. Her current ability is levitation.” Alex added, “And judging from what happened when I walked in, the objects she levitates have the potential to become projectiles.”We all started laughing and nodding. Alex just shook his head and grabbed a doughnut from the tray and went to the kitchen for a cup of coffee. I added, “I think we should take this somewhere else, but I don’t want her practicing where anyone can see her. I do not want the dark witches t

    Two Years LaterI was helping Aadi with refreshments when I heard Lena yell for me, “MOM!” I rushed to her room, tires squealing as I turned the corner into her room, “What’s up, sweetheart?” She was standing there, at the foot of her bed in nothing but her bra and panties with a huge pile of dresses on her bed, “I can’t find anything to where and they are going to be here in less than an hour!”I chuckled because we go through this every time Alpha Doug and Luna Kathryn come down for a visit, “Okay sweetie, let’s see what your options are. We don’t want formal because that’s just too much, so take all the formal gowns out.” That reduced one foot of the pile.I sighed, “Okay, are you feeling any particular color for today?” She shrugged, “I don’t know.” I suggested, “I would love to see you in something that highlights your eyes. You have beautiful eyes and he needs to see that.” She giggled, “He already has. He’s always told me I have beautiful eyes.” I smiled, “Then we need to show

    The following month, Alpha Doug and Luna Kathryn brought their two boys and one girl to visit our pack. The poor girl, Elizabeth, was stuck, in age, between both of her brothers, with no sister to have her back.Their oldest son, Lucas, was fifteen and held himself as a future alpha but he was also trying not to seem unreachable. He kept staring at Lena in awe, but it almost seemed as though he was afraid to approach her. I chuckled, “It’s okay if you want to hang out with Lena. Just stay where we can see you.”He let out a breath and walked up to her, “Would you like to take a walk?” She answered as she blushed a bright shade of pink, “I would love to.” As they walked away, I couldn’t help but notice the awestruck look on his face as he kept his eyes on her. I smiled at Isaac knowingly and Isaac nodded in acknowledgement. Aadi chuckled, “We may have a pair of mates.”Blaine approached Elizabeth, “Would you like to take a walk?” Elizabeth agreed and she started walking next to his whe

    Within minutes, there were at least one hundred snakes covering his body, biting him, while he screamed in pain and terror. Blaine nodded and all of the snakes stopped biting and started climbing the wall to leave the same way they came in.He was still conscious and yelling obscenities at Blaine while our son laughed, “I’m glad you’re still awake, Devlin. If you thought that was bad, wait until you see what is next.” He nodded at the guards and Heather withdrew the tree roots.We all walked outside and the guards roughly dragged him outside and just let him drop, face up onto the ground. He looked at Heather and she smiled, “Happy to help, brother.” The tree roots started winding their way up his arms again.Devlin asked, “So what now?” He smiled, “This is going to be better than expected. You are going to see your end coming and feel every bit of the pain. Rot in hell, Devlin Thorn. You deserve no less.”We all stepped back and watched as two panthers approached him. He screamed like

    We all went into the pack house and I asked if they would like some lunch before we go to the dungeons. Luna Kathryn asked, “Are you planning to go to the dungeon?” I nodded, “Blaine has a rather unconventional execution planned. We can go in Isaac’s office and tell you about it.”We sat in the lounge area of his office and Isaac started, “The first thing you need to know is that the prisoner is Blaine’s biological father. He kidnapped and raped his mother multiple times before she was able to escape. Not long after Blaine was born, he found them and tried to kill Blaine because he didn’t want kids. That’s how Blaine became paralyzed.”Luna Kathryn gasped, “Oh my Goddess! You poor child. You are so lucky to have survived.”Blaine spoke up, “It was the Goddess’ will that I survived. I have spent my whole life following Her path for me and I will until I die. Dad and I spent the last year looking for him so that I could get my justice. I’m just glad my biological mother kept track of him

    One year later, I was at my desk in the office at the pack house, working on the books for the pack. I took a deep breath and sat back in my chair, thinking back on the past year.The kids have improved by leaps and bounds. My mind went to Blaine’s breakthrough moment.FlashbackShortly after I came home from the hospital, I had been resting on the couch because I wanted time with my family. The girls had gone to the kitchen to make a snack when Blaine approached me and laid his head on my chest.He asked, “Mom, can you tell me the whole truth about my father? Isaac is my dad, but I need to know about the guy who got my mom pregnant.” Isaac smiled and nodded at me. I looked at Aadi and she nodded also.I explained, “Well, your mom told me that he was a terrible man who had kidnapped her to sell her to some traffickers. He raped her multiple times before she was able to escape. I don’t know his name though.”Aadi added, “She told me that his name is Devlin Thorn. When you were a tiny ba

    I gasped, “Three weeks?! What the hell was wrong with me?!” Isaac started trying to soothe me, “It’s okay, love. They were able to fix it. You had a brain aneurism. It burst just as you got here to see the doctor. They were able to stop the bleeding and fix the aneurism through your carotid artery.”I sighed as Isaac continued, “If you hadn’t been here, in this hospital, when you passed out, you could have bled out and died. They called me and told me to get to the hospital, and I jumped out of bed and ran for the hospital.”I furrowed my brow, “I remember you telling me that they were doing surgery, but I was out again before I could ask why.” He smiled, “I’m just so happy that you are still with us. The kids will be so happy that you are awake.”The doctor walked in and I shrugged, “I’m back, doc.” He laughed, “Yes, you are, Luna. I’m very happy to see you awake. I need to check and see if there are any neurological issues. Aneurisms can do that.”He checked the strength in my arms a

    When we got home, Blaine had a huge grin on his face. Isaac lifted him out of his chair and put him on his lap. I asked, “So, sweetheart, how long have you been able to control animals?” Blaine blushed, “Since I was three. I can’t talk to them, but I can control what they do.”I smiled, “That is a really cool ability. Can you do that with humans?” He shook his head, “No. Just animals. But I can control their wolves after they shift.” I smiled, “Now that’s awesome. We make a perfect set. I can control humans.” Blaine’s eyes lit up, “Really?” I nodded, “Really.”Heather smiled, “Wow! That’s really cool!” She then put a somber look on her face, “Just do me a favor?” I asked, “What, sweetheart?” She sighed, “Just don’t do it to me?” Blaine and I laughed, “We wouldn’t even think about it.”Blaine explained, “I used to play with small animals when no kids would play with me. The staff would get mad at me for having a rabbit or a squirrel on my lap. When they would start saying hurtful things

    Thirty minutes later, the guards were bringing the prisoner out of the dungeon and chaining his hands and feet to a large pole. Isaac and some warriors found a clearing in the forest that was just large enough to have the sun beat down on him the entire day.I growled as I watched him being pulled by a chain attached to a silver collar around his neck. I was quite pleased with the amount of silver attached to him. Just knowing his skin was being burned at each area made me smile.I asked Isaac, “Did you mind link Aadi to let her know where he is?” Isaac nodded, “I did. She linked the hospital staff to let them know.”My mate’s eyes glazed over as he received a mind link. Then, when his eyes cleared, he turned to me, “Our son wants the very last blow. He says he doesn’t need to be here. He wants to make the last one hurt the most.” I furrowed my brow, “I wonder what he is planning on doing.” He smiled, “It seems that our son has an ability that we know nothing about.”I nodded, “You are

    When we reached the pack house, Isaac gave me a kiss and smiled, “I’ll see you at lunch time, love. I want to make sure you eat today.” I nodded, “Okay. I’m sure I’ll be starving by then. Did you want to start the interrogations this afternoon? We have a few to do.” Isaac ran his hands through his hair, “I forgot all about that. Yeah, we should do that this afternoon.”I spent my morning on the pack books and entering receipts. I was so glad that I was done with that part by nine a.m. and I mind linked Isaac’s dad, “Kenny, would you like to take some time to talk about the pack’s investment portfolio?” Kenny answered, “I would love to, Zariah. I’ll be there shortly.”After nearly three hours of discussing existing investments and then choosing a few new ones, I suggested we start looking for some real estate to invest in also. He agreed with that idea and said he would look around. We agreed to meet again in a couple weeks.As we finished our meeting, my brain started hurting and I was
