James grinned at me and I had to smile. The officers were struggling to get in between the two of us and I got in one more punch to James' jaw before the officer jumped in front of me, his gun raised. The other officer had his gun on James.

“Now listen to me carefully boys, on your knees slowly.” We complied, and I placed my hands behind my head and got down on my knees.

“Do either one of you want to tell me what the hell is going on here?” he asked out of breath.

“He started it!” James yelled angrily.

I laughed at him and James pretended that he wanted to get up again. The police officer placed his hand on James' shoulder to restrain him and I really had to stop myself from laughing. There was no way they would have been able to stop us if this had been a real fight.

“Okay, both of you are coming down to the station,” the police officer said as they handcuffed us.

‘Great,’ I thought to myself.

Assault was better than murder, I guess. They loaded us next to each other into the backsea

    We had spent hours in Malachi’s study discussing what possible due cause they could have. Neither of them were involved with the pack, neither of them had suffered any losses like we had. Christian had more due cause than they had. We couldn’t come up with a plausible answer to how they would swing this in their favor and we gave up after a few hours.The knock on our door came at six p.m., just as we finished dinner. Malachi had been quiet and distant. I opened the front door and a smiling Alexander stood there with a large envelope in his hands. My instant dislike for him rose and I didn’t care that he was my brother anymore. I cared that he thought he could oust my father.“Kiran.” Alexander nodded and stepped past me inside the house.“Puppet.” He smirked at me as I barely glanced at him. I wouldn’t show him an ounce of respect and I knew that if Franklin had been here instead of Alexander, I would’ve hurt him.“I thought it best to deliver our claim to you personally.” Alexander

    “I haven’t been a particularly good Alpha these last two years. Perhaps it is time for me to step down and for someone else to take the reins.” This wasn’t my father. This was some man, not an Alpha and not Malachi Sinclair. This was not the man that had taught me never to give up on anything.I was shocked beyond words. “We never give up! Isn’t that what you’ve taught me my whole life?”Malachi didn’t answer me and I could see that he truly believed himself to be a terrible Alpha. The events leading up to that explosion wasn’t his fault just like it wasn’t the fault of anyone else other than Adrian.“When are we supposed to attend this claim?” I looked at the papers again and found the date to answer James.“Friday night.”Malachi stood up and retreated to his study, leaving us in the kitchen with no answers and no plan. I felt restless and I was itching to let off some steam, maybe even punch something, but I had to be the Alpha in Malachi’s stead now and come up with a plan. The on

    Malachi didn’t stray from his normal routine. He went to his office and to court and kept to his appointments, clearing most of his cases. That worried me; he was clearing his schedule and he refrained from joining any meetings with me and James.I didn’t want Adara anywhere near the den on Friday night and for the first time in our lives I pulled rank on her as she insisted on being by my side. Adara, Christian and Shoran would spend the night with Robert and Malika.I had met with Robert early that Friday morning and proceeded to tell him everything. They would be safe with Robert and I knew that he would follow my instructions.“Franklin wants Malachi dead so that Alexander can claim the Alpha seat. They have due cause and their claim has been accepted by The Council. We will meet them tonight.”I had to explain who The Council was and how the claims worked but in the end he finally understood my reasoning. He agreed with me when I said that none of us could trust Franklin or Alexa

    Malachi lowered his head. He had wanted them to bend the knee, to just accept his fate and move on. Each one of us would die for him, would gladly take his place in that inner circle, and be judged. After ten minutes, I could see the anger rising in Alexander before he managed to block me out.“Malachi Sinclair … your pack has spoken. You will now enter into a fight of dominance.”Malachi walked to where I stood and took off his shirt, handing it to me. “You should have bent the knee. They would’ve followed you.” His voice was barely a whisper.“We never bend the knee against our own.” I clenched my jaw tightly, knowing that he didn’t want to hear that.Malachi’s smile was filled with sadness and he placed his hand on my shoulder. “I’m very proud of you, Kiran.” That was the precise moment I knew that Malachi wasn’t going to fight. He wanted to die in that circle. My biggest fear was becoming a reality.Alexander had also taken off his shirt and I noticed that he was unmarked. Frankli

    I handed James the keys to my Jeep to get the women from Robert’s house. We needed Adara. I drove home slowly in Malachi’s Navigator, the dirt road feeling bumpier than usual.Malachi looked at me through his bloodied face and placed his hand on my shoulder. “Why did you do that?”I braked hard and turned to look at him. “Because I love you. I knew you weren’t going to fight him. I knew there was a chance they’d kill me with you but it was a chance I was willing to take.”We arrived at the house first and I helped Malachi out of the car and into the house. I eased him down on the couch and bent down beside him. “Why didn’t you fight?”“I’m not Franklin. I won’t kill my children, not even him.”Malachi winced in pain and I took out my phone to call James. As it started ringing I saw headlights in the driveway and disconnected the call. It wasn’t James though. I stood at the front door looking at George Haynes and his Beta.“Good evening. May we come in?”“Of course, Alpha George.” I op

    Malachi was near the stairs but he turned back to face her. He was too shocked to string a sentence together. “Adara, I…”“I don’t care what you want. He was prepared to die with you tonight, if nothing else matters to you anymore, that should! I suggest you take some time to stop feeling sorry for yourself and start acting like the father you should now be to all of us!” Adara turned on her heel and headed towards the stairs.I stood there for a few seconds, shocked. I hadn’t expected that from her. Malachi started laughing and then I joined him. We laughed until tears ran down our cheeks and we had to stop to catch our breath.She hadn’t left as we thought, and she stood there glaring at us. I wiped the tears from my eyes, and she started walking towards me. Anger radiated from her aura and I couldn’t help the chuckle that escaped from my lips.“What the hell is so funny?” She demanded to know.“You.” I started laughing again. Malachi composed himself first and cleared his throat.“

    I woke up the next morning feeling like a heavy weight had been lifted from my shoulders. We were alive. I geared up for my usual morning jog and found James and Malachi in the kitchen, ready to jog with me.We jogged down the dirt road, down Lowell Canyon Drive and past the hotel. We turned left and jogged into town where I stopped at the coffee shop I normally stopped at. I was so used to jogging alone that my mind was wandering and I kept thinking about the previous night.“Kiran …” Malachi’s voice held a warning tone and my face turned red from embarrassment.“Sorry, I forgot you were here.” James laughed loudly as we bought coffee and sat down at a nearby table.“I should probably start looking for a job. Any ideas?” James successfully changed the subject and all thoughts of Adara and our shower last night were forgotten. We sipped our coffees and watched the townspeople go about their early morning routines. It was peaceful just sitting there with them and I knew that our lives

    The house was full of noises when Robert walked in with Christian and he decided to stay for breakfast as well. Christian leapt into my arms like he always did and told me about the scary dinosaur movie he had watched with Robert.Robert smiled. “Jurassic Park’s not that scary.”“Robert, he’s five! To him it is scary.” Robert opened and closed his mouth and then looked sheepishly at me.“Sorry,” he mumbled and I shook my head.I told Shoran and Adara that they were to stay at home with Christian. I didn’t want to give Alexander any opportunities to be in the same room with her. Adara tiredly nodded her head and remained on the couch.“It’s almost time to go.” Malachi nodded his head as I kissed Adara goodbye.“Where are you going?” Robert had remained seated as Carl, Frank and Richard stood up and grabbed their keys.“To the den. We need to finalize Alexander’s claim on Malachi’s belongings.”“Let’s go.” Robert stood up but I stopped him.“No Robert …” His look silenced me, something

    Adara and Kai were discharged the next morning, and I was eager to take them home. Her healing had kicked in and they were both doing really well. The baby room had been ready for weeks and my sense of duty and responsibility toward them came naturally.Our first night at home was spent in Kai’s room. Adara and I stood by his crib and just watched him as he slept. He was absolutely perfect.“Thank you, Adara. I hope he got the best parts of both of us,” I said.“I’m sure he did,” she said softly.I kissed her and kept my arms around her. She yawned and I nudged her toward the door. She needed sleep more than I did and she sighed with contentment when I pulled her against me after we got into bed.“I’ll always love both of you,” I whispered.The pack had gone overboard with their congratulations and Malachi had instant love in his eyes the first time he held him. I could only imagine how he’d felt the very first time he’d held me.It was a love so instant that it scared you, the fear w

    Life was as it should be. Normal and boring. I finished up in the study that Malachi had now handed over to me, but it felt odd to say that it was mine. It was almost midnight as I checked the doors and windows. I did this every night, it still bothered me how Bryan had so easily entered our house, twice.I climbed into bed next to Adara and she automatically moved towards me. I put my hand on her stomach and I felt little bumblebee kick in response. I smiled as I closed my eyes. I must have slept for three hours when something woke me.I sat up in bed and listened. The house was quiet. I got up and ran to the bathroom and vomited into the toilet. My head pounded and I felt dizzy. Something was wrong somewhere. I sat on the bathroom floor and after ten minutes the nausea went away. I splashed water on my face and went back to the bedroom. I was just getting back into bed when Adara sat up, she was in agony.“What is it?” I asked her suddenly.“The baby… it hurts!” She screamed loudly

    John looked disapprovingly at me and Malachi was in my head instantaneously. “What the hell did you just do?”He was anxious and nervous. I looked around me, the whole den was quiet, and everybody looked at me because I had killed a man that had tapped out. John walked into the circle.“Kiran! Do you care to explain? He tapped out and still you killed him!” John’s voice was stern as I still stood over Alexander’s body.“Wolf law nine, no claim shall be made on an Alpha’s position without due cause.” Malachi frowned slightly as I spoke to John.“That’s your excuse? An unlawful claim?” John shook his head as I smiled.“Subsection nine point twelve, any unlawful claim proven to be false shall be reverted back to the original pack with immediate effect without the Alpha having to defend his position, should a claim fight be the result, it shall be a fight of dominance.” John started laughing.“Quite right, that law hasn’t been used in many years.” John stated, and looked at me.Bryan look

    I didn’t tell James or Adara about what had transpired in the kitchen in the late hours of that night. I wasn’t even sure that I believed it myself. Could it really be possible to get our pack status back?Malachi had also kept quiet and nine days later we received the summons to gather our pack at the den. John had informed Malachi that The Council would be present at this claim and that he would take charge of it himself.This time Adara and Shoran and Christian went to the den with us. Our whole pack gathered with us there and I was nervous. I hadn’t told her yet that I would be the one to fight Alexander and become Alpha of our pack. I didn’t think anybody besides us four in the kitchen that night knew.We stood in the den as Bryan brought in Alexander. He wasn’t pleased at being brought in by The Council. John Whitcombe and the other members were seated behind a table pretty much in the same way they had when we had been accused of murder. The difference this time was that we wer

    Malachi had returned to work and there was a new energy around him. He smiled more until I had to sit him down one evening and have a talk with him. Adara had read Christian his story and they had both fallen asleep in his bed. I had carried her to our room when I went to check on Christian.Now I sat in the kitchen and waited for Malachi to return. It was eleven pm when his car finally drove into the garage. He walked into the kitchen and looked at me and I nodded at the chair next to me.He sat down and started laughing. “Why does this seem so familiar?” I laughed as well as it brought back memories.“I want to talk to you about drafting a will for me.”“Yes, it’s a good idea to make sure everyone is cared for should something happen to you.”We’ve had too many run ins and one day my luck would eventually run out and I wanted everything to stay in the family. I wanted to ensure that the children especially were looked after.“We should do it as soon as the baby is born.”“Thanks, Da

    Jessica was good for his soul. Malachi found that he really liked her, all of her. She didn’t block anything from him and she was brutally honest. They spent as much time together as they could and after two months Malachi realized that they were a couple.“You do realize that technically we’re a couple.”They were laying in her bed one afternoon as Malachi played with her hair. Jessica laughed and turned her head to look at him.“Dude, we’ve been a couple since that day in your office.”She made him laugh and she made him feel good about himself without asking anything of him in return. She was just there, and he started laughing as he realized that he was in love with her.“We should tell Kiran.” Malachi sat upright in bed and checked his phone. It had been on silent the whole afternoon.“Why? Do we need his permission?” Jessica licked her lower lip and Malachi smiled.“No.”Jessica pushed him back down on the bed and bit his earlobe. “You are way too serious, Malachi.”“Why hide it

    Malachi and Jessica held hands all the way back to Seward and she directed him to her house. He stopped the Navigator in front of the house and Jessica turned towards him. Malachi wanted to kiss her, undress her and touch every inch of her skin.“I like you, Malachi, but there is one more thing I have to tell you.” Jessica swallowed nervously.“It can’t be that bad.” Her nerves had him on edge. She didn’t come across as someone fearing anything but he knew whatever she had to tell him, it was important and likely to change things between them.“I slept with Kiran.” She watched Malachi’s face intently for some sort of reaction.“Okay…”“We were seventeen, he had just broken up with Sarah. We were both wasted and it just happened.”Malachi looked at her, listening; it was the truth he heard. Jessica’s mind was so open and she hid nothing from him, certain things were off limits, he could sense it and he didn’t delve deeper than what she was ready to tell him, but what she did show him w

    Malachi smiled as he walked out of his office and found Jessica leaning against the front of the Navigator, looking care-free and young. She was young and he wasn’t so young anymore. She was also beautiful, intriguing and intelligent. She was still too young for him.“Took you long enough.” Jessica removed her sunglasses and smiled.“You are something else.” Malachi unlocked the doors and Jessica climbed into the passenger seat.“You can take me to dinner or a late lunch or whatever you want to call it.” She made herself comfortable in the seat and put her safety belt on. Malachi felt at ease, calm and happy. That emotion shocked him a little because he never thought he’d feel that again.Malachi could only smile as he drove out of the parking lot and headed towards the highway, heading out of Seward and in the general direction of Sterling.“Where are we going, handsome?” Malachi laughed as Jessica winked at him.“You know, I’m much too old for you.” Malachi glanced at her. She was d

    Malachi sat in his office and thought of the events that had happened the last two weeks. He still couldn’t believe that they had escaped unscathed. If George Haynes had been a different Alpha, he and Kiran would both be dead.Malachi wiped a hand over his face. He had wanted to die that night; he’d wanted to die ever since Karani had died. She had been the other half of his soul and he saw no reason to go on without her.Even though he was an outcast now he knew that their pack would always remain intact no matter what status they had. He didn’t want to die anymore and he didn’t want to be Alpha either. He only regretted that Kiran would suffer the same consequences. He would’ve made a terrific Alpha.“Sorry Malachi.” Tim Oakes had been on his phone, leaving Malachi alone with his thoughts.“No problem. We can finalize the contract next week and you’ll be the proud new owner of the beach front cabins.”“Thank you. I really appreciate all the hard work you’ve put in.”Malachi and Tim
