Kiera POV"We're ready to move out, Luna," Frank, a man once my adversary, respectfully bowed his head as he addressed me. I observed him with curiosity, pondering how life had led us to this point."Thank you. We depart in 5 minutes. Have your soldiers left provisions for the villagers here?" I inquired."Yes, Luna. Last night, we managed to hunt four deer and at least a dozen squirrels. It required venturing quite far, but this meat should sustain them for a while," Frank assured me."Excellent. Hopefully, we can send additional resources to those who chose to remain," I remarked, sighing as I zipped up my bag and slung it over my shoulder.At each stop, we extended offers of safe passage to those seeking refuge at my former pack house, leaving whatever supplies we could spare for those opting to stay behind. It was the best solution available for now.My concern lay not only with the threat of starvation but also with the possibility of raiders targeting the vulnerable. Yet, until w
Kiera POV"Are you sure about this?" Maggie questioned me for the hundredth time this morning."Yes! Lupa isn't a threat. Stop worrying so much," I exclaimed, wrapping Ruby in a blanket."She's a ghost! How is that not a threat?" Maggie pressed, her concern evident in her tone."She isn't a real ghost," I said awkwardly, knowing my explanation might not make much sense. "Her soul was trapped by her ex-brother-in-law or something. She has never harmed anyone. Now let's go," I urged, gesturing for Maggie and Elizabeth to each grab a baby and follow me outside."The Alphas said she drove the men crazy, forcing them to kill themselves," Elizabeth quietly added, her voice filled with apprehension."Those men were there for... bad reasons. That's why she harmed them," I retorted, trying to reassure them as we walked towards the rainforest, which would lead us to the old pack house.As we approached the dilapidated mansion, an unsettling chill swept through the air, causing goosebumps to rise
Kiera POV"What are we going to do?" Elizabeth practically shouted. She has been a mess since we returned from our little encounter with Lupa. I wished I had a plan or some spark of hope to suggest, but I couldn't think of anything."Honestly, I have no idea. I'm not killing anyone, though," I affirmed firmly. The mere thought of losing any of the brothers was unimaginable, let alone it being my doing that ended them."Dietus lives within the brothers. It has to be their second wolf, Zeus," Elizabeth said, her voice deep in thought as she recalled Lupa's words. "Maybe you can expel just that part of them," she suggested, desperation evident in her tone."I think if that were possible, Lupa would have told me already. Dietus waited until the boys were sixteen before he merged with them. He purposely linked himself to me to ensure his survival. He probably hoped we would all mark each other too," I explained, my voice heavy with resignation."He definitely wanted you pregnant. This son o
River POVFor over a week, we delved deep into ancient tomes, unraveling every spell, dissecting every story, and pondering every fairytale, desperate for even the faintest hint of an answer. Yet, despite our tireless efforts, every page turned revealed nothing but the grim reality of our situation.The more I thought about it, the more I wondered if my brother and mine despise was the only way. The weight of our predicament pressed heavily upon me, my thoughts swirling in a tempest of uncertainty. Would we be compelled to make the ultimate sacrifice, laying down our lives so that others might endure? So Kiera could live?Just thinking of her name sent a jolt of anguish coursing through my veins. Her rejection echoed endlessly in my mind, a cruel reminder of the pain that gripped my soul. I felt the raw ache of loss, my wolf abandoning me to suffer alone in the frail vessel of my human form. Though I knew my suffering paled in comparison to my younger brother's torment, the sting of r
Drake POV"Leave him!" My internal thoughts roared in defiance against Dietus's laughter. My wolf, Demetrius, surged with energy, pushing against the dark force."He is mine. You are all mine," Dietus declared as he worked his magic, pulling River closer to him."He is my brother!" I insisted, leaning forward on my front paws, ready to spring into action. I knew I couldn't fight Dietus, but I refused to stand by as my brother was sacrificed to this pathetic god."Demetrius, how fitting," Dietus remarked, addressing my wolf directly. I hesitated, surprised that he knew my wolf's name. "Lupa placed her most trusted and loyal warrior within you. She was a fool, though. My spirit is more powerful than any. I ruled this world for centuries, and I will rule it again," he taunted. I felt Zeus inside me, fighting for control but Demetrius was remaining fierce. My body trembled as both my wolf and soul battled to keep Zeus contained. There was no time for this power struggle. My focus remaine
Kiera POV"Quick! He needs help!" I screamed, the urgency slicing through the chaotic air, summoning nurses who sprinted towards us. Chase's head rested in my lap, his once formidable frame now drenched in sweat, every muscle betraying him in spasms of agony."Stay with me just a little longer," I whispered, the words a desperate prayer as I clung to him, willing him to hold on.Elizabeth, a comforting beacon amidst the turmoil, knelt beside us, her hand hovering over Chase's chest like a hesitant prayer. But Athena bristled with a primal instinct inside me, releasing a growl of warning."Sorry," Elizabeth murmured, retracting her hand with a cautious respect. "Is he okay?""I don't know," I admitted, my heart aching as I searched Chase's weary face for signs of hope. He seemed whole, yet I knew the true battle waged unseen, hidden within the depths of his wounded spirit. "Do you think I did this?" I asked, my voice trembling with fear and doubt. Did I unknowingly harm my mate?"We ne
Chase POVFor days, I felt like I was teetering between this world and my death. Loki, ever resilient, bore the brunt of the pain while I retreated deep within our soul, seeking refuge from the agony that threatened to consume us. We had one mission left in this life, and that was to be reunited with our mate, even if it meant facing our end in her arms.When I finally saw her radiant figure, I feared I was already too far gone to be saved. But then I awoke beside her. Kiera's slender form was curled against my side, her thick white-blond hair cascading over my chest and arm like a protective shroud. In that moment, I found solace and complete peace in her presence. There was no greater sight to behold than the woman I loved with every fiber of my being.With careful precision, I removed the oxygen mask, IV wires, and heart monitor, freeing myself from the confines of the medical apparatus that surrounded me. These people thought technology would save me, but I knew Kiera's presence w
Chase POV"Not so fast, little wolf. I'm not completely healed. Don't I at least get pity sex?" I teased."Pity sex! What is wrong with you?" She said in surprise. I would take Kiera anyway she gave it to me. "Yes, love." I moved her to straddle my lap. Her lips opened as she gasped at my large, hard dick pressed against her. "You're causing me another kind of pain, one deep in my balls." "How are you horny right now? You just slept for three days." She chuckled as her body relaxed over me. "Three days? I thought it was just the night." For a moment, I thought of my brothers. They had to be worried about me. I was going to send word to them as soon as I arrived, but I was too weak. "You aren't fully healed, Alpha." Kiera's hand brushed through my long hair. It wasn't sweaty, and my body was thoroughly cleaned."Have you been bathing me, little wolf? I smell like flowers." My nose moved to sniff my armpit."I told you, I felt bad." She shrugged."You wanted to sneak a peak at my ha
Kiera POV"I miss our Alphas," Lizzy whined from her pool chair as we lay beneath the hot sun."Me too. They'll return soon," I replied, trying to offer her some comfort."I need attention. The second trimester is a killer. Why would I be twice as horny when I'm already pregnant!" Lizzy turned to her side in frustration. She was huge for only three months along, but she was also carrying triplets, one girl made from each of our Alpha's seed."You've got me for now. Sebastian is finally down for a nap," I said, moving beside her on the lounge chair and hugging her close. My affection for her was undeniable, though we never pleasured each other alone."I know, but I also know you'd rather watch me come than make me come," she giggled in my arms."I do love watching your sexy body. The way the boys own us in bed is so damn hot," I moaned."You're making me hornier, Kiera," Lizzy moaned back at me."Sorry, I can try," I shrugged. I didn't know the first thing about pleasuring a woman, but
Drake POVChase and I came rushing into the bedroom, shock and disbelief all over our faces. We felt a new bond, but more potently, we felt our mate satisfied. We would have never guessed to walk into Lizzy riding our brother while he ate out our little wolf."I wanted her as mine, and now she is." Kiera pouted to me. "I see that, baby," I said as Chase and I took a side of Elizabeth. My fingers brushed over the two marks she now had. "Did my brother and mate mark you?" I asked her. She looked a mess, drowning in her post-orgasm and her wolf demanding more and more. Lizzy was an insatiable demon in bed. River spent days locked away with her body, and she never once denied him."Yes, we accepted each other. I'm sorry. We should have all talked about this first. I got caught up in the moment when Kiera marked me." Her hand went to her neck."Did our little wolf mark you first?" I asked, my head tilting at her in awe. Was this really happening? Did our little mate mark another woman, cl
Kiera's POVI had this idea the day Sebastian was born. I didn't think it would work, but I really hoped it would. Elizabeth wasn't our fated mate, but she was our family every bit as each of us. She proved to be the perfect Luna, my best friend, and I knew she desired both men and women. River and Drake had already been her lover, and Chase was once a playboy who would take anything legal to satisfy his itch. It wasn't a love written in the stars before we were born, but it was a love that had formed over years of friendship, devotion, companionship, and loyalty. The thought of never seeing Elizabeth or her just being a friend to us physically pained me, and I knew it pained River too. She was so much to us that making her our mate seemed to be the only solution.'It's time for River's mark. Are you ready to toy with our Alpha?' I asked her in our newly formed mind link.'Hell yeah! If he doesn't want to mark me, that's okay, too. I'm not sure how this will work, but I want to be wi
River POVMy insides filled with anxiety as we drew closer and closer to our home. The familiar surroundings should have brought comfort, but instead, my heart pounded with a mix of anticipation and dread. I was waiting for any sign of Zeus or the darkness to bubble inside me, praying I never felt their influence again. The remnants of their power, which had once consumed my brothers and me, were constantly pushed down by Kiera's light. Her mark had saved us, renewing our souls and making us more than we ever were before. We couldn't merge our power anymore, nor did we attempt to call on Zeus. Thankfully, we no longer sensed his presence. We remained powerful Alphas, just no longer as unstoppable as we once were.Besides the lingering threat of Dietus, the thought of seeing Elizabeth again made my insides churn uncomfortably. This was truly our final farewell. Elizabeth had told Chase she wished to explore the islands off the coast of the South, claiming that a change of scenery was
Kiera POVWaking from the anesthesia was excruciating, but seeing my little boy in his father's arms lit up my heart. He was perfect, and he was ours.Every single pack member wanted to meet their future Alpha, and I saw the hope in their eyes. Sebastian was more than just a newborn; he was a symbol of renewal and resilience. For months, we had searched our world, trying to eradicate any lingering evil and praying Dietus remained confined to the dark forest. The battles we fought, the sacrifices we made, all led to this moment. The birth of our son wasn't just the start of a new life but the dawn of a new era for our people.As we gathered in the heart of our territory, the sun setting behind the Southern tropical forest, casting a golden hue over the landscape, I could feel the profound shift within our community. The whispers of hope and renewal filled the air, and each pack member's gaze upon Sebastian was a silent vow of loyalty and protection. He was not just our son; he was the
Drake POVWatching my mate scream in pain, her body slick with sweat and her feet propped up in stirrups, was agonizing. The air in the delivery room crackled with tension as River stormed in and out, his wolf barely contained. He wanted to tear apart every doctor and nurse who approached Kiera, but he knew they weren't the ones hurting her."You're doing so good, Cherie. Deep breaths, baby," Chase soothed from her side, his voice a calm anchor. I held her hand, struggling to contain my own wolf, but I knew I wasn't offering her much comfort. Six hours of labor, six hours of relentless pain, and her anguish was evident."Shut up! Just shut up! You asshole! You're such horrible assholes for doing this to me!" Kiera screamed, her voice raw with agony. Her emotions swung wildly from uncontrollable sobbing to spikes of murderous rage, making the room feel like a storm on the brink of breaking.The sweat on her forehead glistened under the harsh lights, and her eyes blazed with both fury a
Kiera POVI laid awake for hours, my body slowly moving to admire each of my mates. It had been three months, the exact amount of time I spent without them in my previous lifetime. Today wasn't filled with despair and hopelessness, though. Today was everything it was meant to be. I had the triplets as mine; I had my son almost ready to be born into our world, and I had peace and love, completeness I never knew existed."Cherie, you're getting excited again." Chase's sleepy voice made my lips smile wide. I couldn't help myself when it came to them. I wanted to be devoured day and night. "I was thinking of the day you marked me. It was the best day of my life." I said, my fingers moving to his long black hair."Mm, one of mine too." He hummed, his nose moving between my legs to take in all of my scent that called to him."What was another?" I asked wistfully."Hmm?" "What was another best day?" I asked, my eyes closed and body soaking up the pleasure his touch gave me."The day we ma
River POVWatching my brothers slam into our mate from front and back as she screamed and clawed at them was so damn sexy. The way this woman submitted to us, fueled by our desire to use her like she was nothing but a cum bucket to us; it had my dick painfully hard. I couldn't help but release all over her breasts. Now that my brothers were done, it was my turn to fill her and mark her as mine.'Take her!' Chaos demanded, my canines peeking through my gums.'We will. First, we make her scream again.' I promised my wolf."You look so tired, Princess." I taunted her, separating those delicious thighs and revealing her swollen pussy. It was red, wet, and opened wide, ready to take another fat cock deep inside her. She was insatiable."Mmm, I want... youuuu." She whispered, trailing off in her words."You will have me." I chuckled, moving between her legs and positioning my tip right at her juicy opening. She was so wet and so damn hot. "Open those eyes for me, princess. I want you awake
Drake POVI watched my perfect woman suck off my brother as my hand-oiled up my cock. I had this feral need inside me to stick my dick tight in her ass. It looked so damn delicious I seriously wanted to take a bite out of the mushy bubble. Chase was losing control as he moved her on the bed, his wolf not caring for the foreplay and needing to finally claim her. We waited too long, and I knew all that frustration would be taken out on Kiera's little holes."Come here, Doll." I grinned while grabbing her one leg, and Chase lifted her waist. We easily moved her on top of me, facing River and Chase and leaving her back to my front. "You're going to ride daddy's cock like a good little girl, aren't you?" I spoke with so much need to be inside her my dick began twitching."Yes, daddy. I want you to cum inside me." She said while arching her back in desire. Another wave of her arousal filled the room, and it damn near knocked me out. She was our perfect little doll to play with. "Our littl
