Kiera POV"I didn't know her well. We met in passing only once. I didn't even get her name. She was like a goddess though, lavender eyes and a single strip of purple in her hair. I remember she had a small child clutching her leg.""Where did you met her?" Hope was blossoming inside me. I tried researching about my family, but there was literally nothing to be found. "It was near the border, at a market. The night before we encountered each other, there was an auction house raided by a lone wolf. Witnesses described a woman with purple eyes and a fierce wolf, calling her a witch possessed by demons. She killed nearly a hundred men and rescued numerous women. My husband and I assisted survivors, helping them hide or begin anew. We met at the market to exchange locations of our safe houses, and that was the extent of it."I smiled brightly, imagining this woman as my mother. The idea that someone so fierce could have been my own brought a sense of joy. However, my mood quickly shifted a
Chase POV"Where is our little Beta traitor?" I asked, twirling a thorny white rose in my hand. It reminded me of Kiera and I liked its beauty even as it stabbed my fingers."Alpha Jackson requested his services and is unable to get away." Katherine stood before me, prim and proper with the right kind of sex appeal."Where is our little Alpha?" My tone playfully tinged with annoyance."He and the other Alphas are taking protection in our old pack house.""Old pack house?" I was curious now. I never heard of a territory having two pack houses."It's said to be haunted," she explained, a hint of fear in her voice. "The Alpha and Luna of the old South were brutally murdered there. Some claim the Luna walks the grounds, avenging her death, while others believe she emerges at night in search of her lost daughter.""A haunted pack house? Now I’ve heard of everything!" I laughed at the stupid superstition."I've been there, Chase. There's something not right with the place." Katherine now lo
Kiera POVI couldn't believe what I had just witnessed. It felt unreal, as if this couldn't be my life. Collapsing to my knees, tears of disbelief streamed down my face. My best friend lay lifeless before me, leaving me lost and unsure of what to do or how to feel. If Athena's strength resided within me, I might have surrendered, letting her take over as I crumbled deep within my soul. Yet, she wasn't here, and the harsh reality of being truly alone set in.Madness seethed within me, originally fueled by anger toward Devon, yet I would have never wished for this grim reality. The fury consumed me, a blazing inferno that surged within, scorching every fiber of my being. Without hesitation, I lunged at the man before me. Athena's claws tore through my fingertips, a visceral pain coursing through me in relentless waves. Despite the agony, I pushed it aside, determined to avenge my friend's tragic end, even if it meant facing my own death. My claws tore through his throat, and he gaspe
I swallowed hard, sinking further into my seat. The little girl in my arms clung tighter in fear of the man, and I wanted to show her I could protect her. Deep down, I knew it wasn't true. I was the weakest werewolf in this truck, a harsh reality that weighed heavily on my shoulders. I couldn't let anyone be harmed though. I needed to let my anger simmer out for now and I really needed to rest. The best I could hope for at this point was to strike some kind of deal with the triplets.Closing my eyes, I welcomed the exhaustion to take over. My body was broken, and my soul felt like it was on fire. I knew Athena was hurting too. She pushed too far, and the silver weakened her even more.As blackness took over, my thoughts turned to nightmares. Devon stood before me, tears streaming down his face, pleading for me to understand. Martha and Albert stood by my side, desperately trying to save me. Tracy, Devon's fated mate, appeared in my dreams, crying in pain over her mate's death. Her be
Chase POVMy brothers and I arrived home early in the morning, just before our second troops. The three of us were exhausted from wielding the power Zeus lent us, and still a little spooked by the ghost we encountered. Though unspoken, the absence of Kiera hung heavily among us. I needed to know she was at least safe, but the harsh reality was she was likely with her degrading husband, perhaps plotting our demise.We played rock-paper-scissors to determine who would handle the sorting of our prisoners, and, unsurprisingly, I lost. I was not in the mood for the mayhem that came with ungrateful prisoners. River grinned at me as he took Elizabeth in his arms, leading her towards a long bath, while Drake sought peace in his private cottage out back. As for me, I embarked on the daunting task of managing thousands of women and children, likely scared out of their minds.As I approached the throne room, a divine scent enveloped me, nearly knocking me off balance. I knew instantly who it w
Kiera POVThe guard guided me with a gentle pull to follow her. I wanted to rip out Chase's eyes, but I barely had enough strength to walk. The woman, her brown hair tightly secured in a bun, peered at me with warm yet slightly annoyed chestnut eyes. "We'll freshen you up before heading to the medic. He's got some tricks up his sleeve to speed up healing," she said with a reassuring smile. Despite her kindness, a nagging instinct warned me against trusting her, keeping me silent to respond."Shower quickly and put this on." The guard shoved a blue cotton dress into my hands, then directed me towards a row of showers. The space resembled a vast bathhouse, each stall separated by curtains, creating an atmosphere of shared vulnerability.The water's warmth gave me a brief moment of relief. When the soap touched my open wounds, a sharp burn made me hiss involuntarily. I persevered, scrubbing my body to rid it of the dirt and sins accumulated in the past 24 hours.The haunting image of De
Kiera POVI was escorted to my new home, or at least that is how Evie worded it. I saw it as my final resting place.I entered a vast circular chamber, its walls adorned in soft blush hues and crisp whites, creating an atmosphere of delicate elegance. Numerous doors encircled the space, each one a potential pathway to an unknown destination. The room's charm was further accentuated by a plethora of plants gracefully suspended from the ceiling, their tendrils cascading down, adding a touch of natural beauty to the peaceful but gloomy setting."That door is your new room. Most of the others are asleep. Try to be quiet." Evie informed me, her index finger pointing towards a pristine white portal."Others?" I questioned. "Those in service to Alpha Chase.""Right!" I chuckled. Disgust clung to the edges of my consciousness. I lacked the energy to delve into the sickening machinations Chase inflicted on these unfortunate women. Shuffling towards my newfound refuge, I swung the door shut w
Chase POVI visited those in service to me almost hourly, but Kiera still hadn't woken. Our doctor assured me she just needed rest, but I needed to see her face.After two days, I heard movement in her room, and my eyes were fixed on her door. I held my breath, eagerly anticipating her to open it. Finally, my goddess emerged, and I knew I'd never tire of witnessing her face or hearing her voice.Despite her lingering fatigue, she appeared stronger than when she first arrived. The desire to retaliate against those who harmed her overwhelmed me. Loki was keen on seeking vengeance, but my resilient fire pixie had already defended herself.As she began speaking, her anger was evident. My insides churned, witnessing the intensity of her emotions. I found myself drawn to the dark scowl she cast my way, captivated by the attitude emanating from her sharp tongue.I couldn't be an idiot and completely ignore the glaring facts. It was no coincidence that Jackson was nowhere to be found, and the
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
