Amber

I sat with gritted teeth on the edge of the bed as Roman cleaned up the cuts on my side. Slower healing was a disadvantage of being pregnant. So much of my wolfs power was focused on protecting the baby, that I lost some of that ability.

“What’s going on Roman?” I asked, wringing my hands as I tried to sort through the emotions that were flitting through the two of us.

If I was honest with myself, I was terrified, I thought I had come to terms with what my mate told me about his lack of control, but I don’t think I really understood the implications, I certainly never expected to see his wolfs anger turn on me. I knew Roman could feel my fear, he winced every time I thought about it, bringing the feeling to the forefront of my mind.

“I’m so sorry.” His whispered apology was filled with gut and shame, it wasn’t the first time he had uttered the words since he shifted in the woods.

“I don’t need an apology. I’m okay, I’ll heal. But I do need to know what’s going on. Why did this h

    RomanThis girl was either the best thing that had happened to me, or she would be my downfall. Fuck that was intense. It was bizarre really, I had screwed so many women over the years, she wolves and humans alike, and yet she was the best sex I had ever had. The blushing virgin, the sweet innocent school teacher was the one that tied me up in knots.I shook my head as I leant back against the bed wrapping my arms around her and tangling my fingers in her hair. When her legs gave way she took us both to the floor, and I was still trying to catch my breath after my own orgasm.I watched as Ambers eyes fluttered, practically asleep she snuggled into my chest and I relaxed back, ignoring the cold floor against my naked ass. I never would have guessed that the sweet girl would like a bit of rough sex from time to time. When the fantasies flashed through her mind earlier it sent me reeling, hell I was still shocked. She was the good girl the innocent to my bad the sweet to my rough, she wa

    CaliTo say I was disappointed was an understatement. Pack responsibility was something that came at a high cost. I sipped the fresh lemonade before placing the glass on the table beside the lounger that had practically been my home for the last couple of days.The sun was shining high in the sky, it was barely noon here, although I knew it was much later in the day back home, and from the sounds of it all hell was breaking loose.I watched Tristan pace along the poolside, phone glued to his hand as he called round airlines trying to book us an earlier flight back home. Guess I couldn’t complaint too much, the trip had been a last-minute surprise, not something I had been planning for ages so the fact that it was being cut short shouldn’t be too much of a disappointment, I just didn’t want to face reality.For days all we had needed to worry about was which of the seven resort restaurants we wanted to eat at that night, and if we wanted to partake in the poolside activities or ventur

    AmberThe days following the threat passed in a blur of preparations, and yet they went by incident free. Cali and Tristan retuned home from their trip, looking rested and tanned and so in love it was sickly sweet.The pack house was almost constantly occupied by a variety of guards and while Tristan and Roman were both busy, they still made time to spend with us, as a group and individually.Slowly but surely, Roman and I were falling into a routine, and getting to know each other better with every day that passed. It was bizarre to think that we were under the threat of a war considering how easy life seemed at the minute.I had spoken with Cali after her return home and had taken over more of her duties, freeing up time for the Luna and Roman was almost constantly in the presence of Tristan, their heads bowed as they conversed in quiet whispers while they planned and prepared.The pack house was like a revolving door, with guards and advisors in and out at all hours and members of

    RomanOf all the fucking things, and all the fucking timing.I grit my teeth as I stroked the hair back off Amber’s face. My pregnant mate had literally passed out from the news that I had apparently fathered another she-wolfs cub. The doc was on his way over, while I had managed to catch Amber before she hit the ground, I wasn’t willing to take any chances with my mate or my cub.Now I just had to figure out what I was going to do about the girl and the baby.I recognised her, of course I did. She was a member of Lotus pack, a she-wolf I had met over a year ago while Damian and I were on assignment there.Was there a possibility the baby was mine? Unfortunately, yes. I was always careful, I always had been, with everyone but Amber, although that didn’t really mean a lot, shit still happened. But I hadn’t been her first, and I doubt I was her last, so was there a possibility that the cub belonged to someone else? Sure. And fuck was I hoping that was the case.A knock on the door had m

    AmberIt literally felt like my heart had been torn from my chest. The only man I had ever loved, had a child with someone else.“Romans talking with Tristan, he was up here with you for a while but Tris is pissed.” Cali informed from her seat beside me on the bed, although I could barely focus on her words, and I wasn’t sure I wanted to.“I don’t want to see him.” I muttered and Cali shook her head.“Don’t talk like that, you’ll work through it.”“I don’t care, right now Cali, I do not want to see him. How could he do this to me?” I asked as the tears fell from my eyes and my hands went to my stomach. The child he had been so worried about, scared to raise, wasn’t even his first.“There’s still a chance the baby isn’t his.”“I don’t believe that, and neither do you. We both saw his face Cali. The baby is his.”“So, what are you going to do?” The question was asked tentatively but that was the question of the hour, what was I going to do?“I don’t know, but I can’t, right now I just c

    RomanJack Elisse’s voice carried when he was mad, I didn’t even have to force my hearing to listen in on their conversation, standing in the hallway, with the door closed, I could hear him as crystal clear as if he was stood beside me, and every one of his words sliced through my patience like a knife through butter. I could practically feel Tristan’s displeasure from here, and I had no doubt that after this performance I was shortly going to be on the wrong end of another one of the Alpha’s rants.The fact that I had to step out of the room at all was just icing on an already fucked up cake.“Look at you, standing there like you think I’m in the wrong. They always said that Alpha Leroux was fair, tough but fair and yet you’re taking that bastards side without blinking. You have to know that he’s in the wrong here, behind that blank mask of yours, you cannot be this blind.” I winced at the older man’s words, knowing just how pissed off Tristan was right now, there was no way that wou

    The pack house was blissfully quiet the next morning, something I was surprised to find, even as I walked down from the bedroom and through the halls, there was no one in sight and no noise, it was actually a little eerie.Roman had explained the night before that the warriors had located Liberty pack and they were planning an attack on their camp so I had no doubt that Roman Tristan and the other relevant people were ensconced away in the war room making plans, but I would have expected, at the very least to run into some of the pack house staff.Cali was sat alone in the sitting room with a trolly full of breakfast foods, her head bend as se read through what had to be the oldest book I had ever seen.“Morning.” I whispered, not wanting to disturb her but Cali closed the book and placed it in her lap before looking around the room and fixating on the trolley of food as though surprised to see it there.“Morning. What time is it?”“A little after nine. I slept in.” I muttered feeling

    TristanJackson wasn’t joking when he called it a camp. From the looks of it most of the shifters were sleeping outside under the nights sky. Most of the year that wouldn’t be an issue, especially if you shifted into wolf form to stay warm, but there was still snow on the ground in parts of the woodlands, and the bits that weren’t covered in snow were frozen solid, it was freezing out there.I scanned the picture on the screen, taking in the tarpaulin hanging haphazardly to create barriers from the wind, rain and snow, the single tent like structure and the dozens of shifters, and a sadistic glee filled me, it was animalistic and most definitely came from the wolf in me but it wasn’t an emotion I would fight.These monsters had attacked my home, my pack, put the alliance under the treat of war, injured and killed. Kidnapped and tortured and soon they would receive a taste of their own medicine.“Roman, go through the pictures and videos see if you can put together a map of their camp.

    RomanThe sense of relief was astounding, even Smoke was calm inside my head for once, laying with Amber wrapped in my arms, our cub growing safely inside her, for the first time I felt like I was home. I guess it’s true what they say, you don’t know what you have until its gone. The risk of loosing Amber over this made me realise just how much I needed my mate, and only part of that feeling was due to the bond we had created.For the most part it was all her, her smile, her gentle approach, she tempered me in a way I didn’t know was possible, even Smoke was generally calmer when she was around.Her fingers traced the ridges on my chest and stomach, the now familiar tingles leaving bump on my skin.“You okay?” I asked, loathe to break the comfortable silence, but we couldn’t ignore this, a baby wasn’t just going to disappear. The no of her head against my chest wasn’t the most reassuring answer he could have given. “Amber, baby. I need you to talk to me.”“It hurt. Knowing that this t

    CaliTristan genuinely looked like he was at his wits end, not that I could blame him, yet again he was shouldering a hell of a burden and there didn’t seem to be a reprieve around the corner. I watched as he sat back in his office chair, scrubbing his face with his hands as he took deep breaths, trying to control the overwhelming emotions running through him, frustration, anger, disappointment, disbelief, not one of them were positive and left me feeling overwhelmed and I only felt the echo of his emotions.Anger seemed to tip the scales a little as he dialled the phone and placed the call on loudspeaker on his desk waiting for the other person to pick up. He tapped a finger on the desk, and I bit my lip, I had a feeling that Lotus pack were about to be on the receiving end of all of Tristan’s pent up frustrations.“Leroux.” A young voice answered and my eyes flicked up to Tristan in surprise. Alpha Paxon was far from young, his son Abel was set to take over any day, but word was tha
