CHAPTER #52

DELAY NO LONGER

LUCCA’S POV:

“Where is Meredith.” Those words out of Ryder’s mouth haunted me, the hair rose on the back of my neck, and I felt my soul become cold. We couldn’t be looking at another kidnapping, could we? Was Evan crazy enough to come, or to send some one within yards of over 150 warrior wolves, three Alpha’s and the Alpha King to grab a Celtic witch, and for what reason? How would he have even known about her, or known she was here? He would have to be utterly mad! My face was blank and I heard a woman’s voice, and then a gentle petite hand shake my shoulder.

“Lucca, snap out of it. What are you thinking? Undoubtably the girl just wandered off. She’s a witch, she will be fine in this area.” Evelyn said calmly, trying to gain my focus. However as I glanced at Ryder, I could tell by the expression on his face that nothing was fine, and my instincts, as well as Enzo screamed that the girl was gone.

The problem was, I could

However, I knew in my heart that tonight was the night that my father and my mate would be coming for me, for us. To free me, to free us! Our reign of terror would be coming to an end soon. I felt giddy at the prospect of being saved. “My father and my mate are coming to get us. Common, get ye up!” I badgered the girls and pulled the cotton quilt away from Rose’s face. A hand came up and swatted at me, but I dunked my nose. “Your daddy and mate can’t do anything against an entire rogue army. Your hallucinating, although wishful thinking.” Ava said as she attempted to grab the blanket back from me. I smiled; an evil smirk hazed onto my face. She had no idea, I was simply a regular girl, a typcail she-wolf with perhaps a handful of allies and a mate somewhere. Most would rati

    CHAPTER #54“TAKEN”BRIDGETTE’S POV: The blue haze that I was so familiar with now surrounded me in the darkness. Everything was silent, and I was alone. I could feel the claustrophobia overtaking me as I reached forward in the night searching for my escape only to feel and find nothing. The faint scent of menthol cigarettes lingered in my nose, and I could feel my anxiety rise, as I wanted nothing more than to break down and panic. To lose my self-control and cry, scream until I knew I was back into the arms of my loved ones. Instead, I stood in complete darkness, like an empty realm trying to swallow me. I felt the first distinctive squirm in my stomach, causing me to instinctively lower my hands protectively to my belly. I was feeling overwhelmed, I wanted to scream, yet I bit my lip and fought with the tears. I refused to be defeated because I was left alone in darkness. The silence was deafening, the blue haze cast me in a cocoon, illuminating only inches

Beautiful, passionate, funny, and highly intelligent. We found that we had similar interests, and she began working with me part time on historical renovations within my company Crestridge Builders.

I know my mate is a wolf, I can sense it, I can smell it, but I have no recollection of how or why I know any of this. Is he really my mate? Something in my heart tells me that I do indeed have one, although I do not have a wolf to guide me. I know I am not a wolf; my mate has told me that I am a witch, but I do not recall that either. I recall nothing. A clock ticked the seconds away, the sound echoed in my head, as I pulled my long walnut hair from behind my neck over my shoulder and played with the ends between my fingers, thinking silently to myself. Who was I? Was I always a witch? How did I end up here? I had a strange accent compared to everyone else in the castle, so I knew I was not local. For that matter, I

    Bridgette’s POV: I stared out of my window, silently watching the misting rain drizzle lightly against my window. The sun hidden under a blanket of grey clouds making the rich green of the forests and grasslands emerald and vibrant. I leaned against the cold stone window frame and stared into the wilderness, lost in thought. My father was planning another party for me tonight, something I was dreading. I kept trying to assure him that in time I would find my mate, that it was destined and that the Moon Goddess wouldn’t have it any other way. I was only 22 years old for crying out loud, but I could hear his voice echo in my head. “Britty, every wolf needs a mate, fated or chosen, and you are not getting any younger. Even your little sister has found her mate.” I sighed and crossed my arms across my chest. You would think I was an old maid by the way he spoke. It wasn’t that I cared much anyway, I was quite content in being alone. I didn’t need a mate, and I refused t

    Chapter 2 “Dancing Past Father” Bridgette’s POV: After my sister left my room, I knew I needed to be careful and plan my departure carefully and quietly. If I was caught by the servants wandering around the castle with multiple bags, suspicions would shift faster than a werewolf. I quickly pulled out my laptop and began searching for flights. The ball was at 7pm sharp with hors d’oeuvres starting at 6pm, which meant that I needed to be on a plane and in the air no later than 5. Guest had already started arriving today, as our castle hosted over 75 rooms, and many of the visiting Alpha’s were staying here. Another reason I needed to get out of here sooner than later. I glimpsed at the clock above my desk and noted that it was already 11am so I needed to get moving. The ladies in waiting, that were scheduled to do my hair and makeup would be coming in around 4pm. I had less than 3 hours to get out of the castle. I quickly pulled out my credit card and booked the fl

My wolf was no exception, he had been continually pacing in my head and I had no idea why. I found myself becoming short with him on multiple occasions while I was trying to get my work done. I had been swamped with meetings and deadlines, which had not made things any better for me. After nearly three hours straight of pouring over plans for the new colonial mansion we were building for our newest client in Virginia, I was thankful when everyone finally left my office. Time appeared to pause as I poured myself a glass of scotch and exhaustedly collapsed onto my leather sofa. My name was Lucca Mariano, and I am the Alpha of the Crestridge Moon pack. Our pack managed over 1,000 wolves and I controlled and owned one of the most prestigious construction companies in the state. I had gone to school for

    Chapter 4 “Cast Out” Bridgette’s POV: After nearly 13 hours of flight time with only one layover, I could not help but let out a relieved sigh as I settled myself into the front seat of the metallic blue Dodge Challenger I had rented. I turned the key and as the car started; a hearty rumble arose from the engine. I wasted no time as I punched the accelerator and I quickly merged onto the parkway. I smiled as the airport begin to disappear from my rear-view mirror. The flight from Scotland to Pennsylvania, with one stop at JFK, had been exhausting and I was thrilled to finally be off that airliner. I had turned my phone off, as I was sure by now my father was seething. My utter disregard for his plans were not going to go unnoticed and it was only a matter of time before I would be forced to speak with him, but that moment was not going to be now. As of this particular moment, I found myself rolling down the window allowing the sultry humid air to flow through th

    CHAPTER #51“THE BRANCH OF WAR”LUCCA’S POV: I had shifted into my wolf Enzo while in the cabin and had followed the Alpha King out to address our warrior wolves. I was surprised when he shifted mid-step as exited the witches house, but I kept forgetting he was a Lycan. The other thing that he was able to do was mind link and open hold conversations with any pack member telepathically. It really expressed the superiority that he held in the wolf community. I had to break into a trot to keep up with him, and I noticed Ryder out of the corner of my eye just loitering along the tree line. I couldn’t mind link him because he was not affiliated with my pack, and especially not in his human form, only the Alpha King could. I sighed inwardly; I would have to update him later on the plans. I also knew the fact that his mate was here and had not readily accepted him wore heavily on his mind. I remembered the fear and anxiety I had when I had first met Bridge

    CHAPTER #50“THE FATED BITE”EVAN’S POV: I raced blindly into the forest, where I went didn’t matter, all I knew was I needed to get away from that cabin, from her. I don’t know how long I ran, I ran until my wolf was on the verge of collapse. How stupid I had been, things were going just fine until I listened to my father and took that stupid Princess. I had my second chance mate, my concubines, my pack… I should have killed my father instead of allowing him to interfere, pervert my mind into thinking I could become King. Me, a lowly North American Alpha, King of all Lycans and werewolves. How stupid and deluded had I been. What was I thinking? Granted, their was no dispute that producing an heir with the lineage of the Alpha King would be amazing. The resulting pup would be a royal no matter what happened, or who the father was, and Bridgette was beautiful, no one could deny that. She was one of the most beautiful women I had ever laid eyes on, but regardless

    CHAPTER #49“A GIFT FROM THE GODDESS”RYDER’S POV: Evelyn was instrumental in helping the Alpha’s with planning. She told them where the camp was, provided maps and access points they would need to access the mountain and to defeat the encampment of rogues. The remainder of the day both Alpha’s were on their phones coordinating with other packs, council members and allies. They were planning the attack for tomorrow at dawn before the rogues caught wind of anything. Hiding at my grandmother’s house was strategically the best thing for us. We were far enough away from the rogue’s patrols to keep them from finding us here, yet close enough to keep a keen eye on what the enemy was doing. The most important thing at this point was making sure Evan and the rogues stayed put. If Evan decided to move camp, or worse yet, remove the girls, we would be forced to start all over again. Meredith had steered away from me and had spent most of the time talking with my grandmot

    CHAPTER #48“THE CURSE”BRIDGETTE’S POV: Trent and Trey took me into a large room on the left side of the rustic stairway. They opened the steel door with a large skeleton key and gently escorted me inside. They were respectful to me, and I smiled kindly to them. Although they were in the wrong, they were simply following their Alpha’s orders. They closed the door behind me and left me standing alone in this simple barren room with a grouping of twin beds lined up against the wall. I heard a door close from behind me and spun around quickly to see a pretty girl with freckles, grey eyes and sierra colored brown hair, hanging just past her shoulders, dripping wet. She held a white towel around her tiny body, her eyes filled with alarm at seeing me and she quickly took a step back. “Ava…” she said in a weak cracking voice. I stood my ground and watched as another girl, taller yet just as thin raced to the other girl’s side. This girl resembled Emily, s
