Ted’s POV“No,” I tell her tenderly. “I won’t risk your life.”“Then, Sophie and I will leave. You can’t protect her if she is always a target. I can’t protect her against wolves. But I can leave, I can distance myself from you,” she tells me, while holding my hand. “It will break my heart, but she is more important than my heart.”I sit beside the bed and kiss her hand.“Give me a week to investigate this attack, give me one week,” I beg. At first, the mate bond was all that held us together, but now, it’s different.She has a way of walking that I can’t stop staring at. She has a face she makes at the kids when they misbehave that makes her look prettier. The way she talks to me, like I’m a person, not just an Alpha. The way she puts toothpaste on my toothbrush for me. How she sings to Sophie, but also to Zach. The way her eyes look past my face, into my soul. Her way of looking at all sides of a problem. How, no matter what, she looks for a peaceful solution. I am truly in love wit
Ted’s POVWatching the Waterman group leave gave me an idea.“Bill,” I say with a smirk. “Let’s go have a chat with Stacey and Evelyn. I have a feeling they will be full of information.”We start down to the jail.“Carl said Waterman seemed to not know Sabrina and Sophie are human,” Bill starts a conversation as we walk.“I agree with Carl. Edwin mentioned Sophie’s wolf. Sophie is the least likely person in this pack to have a wolf,” I scoff. “Stacey must not have met her mate’s family, no way she doesn’t share the new Luna Sol and Princess are human.”“I know that Sedit believes that Sabrina and Sophie are dead, but in case any Dragon comes close, wouldn’t it be nice to have them covered,” Bill explains. “Maybe we should have Sophie’s birth certificate changed to include you as the father. That way, if Sedit ever finds Luna, he won't come after Sophie.”I look at Bill as we are about to enter the cells.“You just need me and Sabrina to sign. You already had it done,” I smirk.“Honest
Sabrina’s POVWhen I wake up, Ted is bent over my bed, his head near my leg, his butt in the chair next to me. I can see he showered since yesterday. My head is still hurting, likely will for a few days. I know I have at least a concussion.I run my hand through his black hair and he wakes up.“Hey, Baby,” He mumbles through his sleep. “Hey, yourself. What did you get up to last night?” I ask.Ted leans back and looks at me. “I had a meeting with the old man Waterman. The father of the Alpha who tried to hurt you. He was aware of the attack. I think he planned it himself. I don’t have proof, I’m looking for the proof, but it’s a feeling in my bones. He came with a typed treaty for me to sign. He had plans all laid out. No way he pulled that all together in a few hours. He also has no idea you are human.”“Wouldn’t the fact that you don’t carry a mark prove that?” I ask, with a laugh.Ted smiles. “Very logical, but no. Some Alphas aren’t marked if their mates are of a lower rank.”“Wh
Sabrina’s POVWe are making out like two teenagers when the doctor comes in.“Now, now,” he says, grabbing our attention. “No baby making for at least another 48 hours. The Luna’s head needs to heal.”I look at Ted, who looks extremely pained. I can feel how turned on we both are, but the forced separation may be good for us. I think we both need to re-think this whole mate thing.Ted gets off the bed and looks at the doctor for instructions.“You can go home, but you need to rest. Don’t try to train or anything for 48 hours. Then, only light workouts,” he smiles at me.“She doesn’t train with the pack,” Ted tells him.“But I plan to start,” I say, looking at the doctor.I feel Ted tense up beside me. “So how long on the light workouts?”The doctor looks between Ted and I before answering.“I would say 4 days,” the doctor nods.“Thank you,” I smile, and he turns to leave. I don’t look at Ted, I just say, “Don’t start. I can’t protect myself. I need to protect me and Sophie; for that,
Ted’s POV“Mommy!” Sophie squealed and ran into her mother’s arms. “Mommy, I am having so much fun. Come see what Zach and Tony are teaching me.”I look over at the boys as they slide a piece of paper under the couch.“Let me see it, boys,” I say, holding out my hand.Zach and Tony look at each other before handing me the paper.“We are going on a hunt for treasure,” Sophie jumps up and down.I see they have drawn a map to the caves on the pack lands.“Why?” I ask them.“So, she knows where to run to be safe,” Zach tells us.“We don’t want Sophie to be hurt, or lost, so we were going to show her the caves,” Tony looks up at me with innocent eyes.“If Sophie is safe, this mommy won’t run away too,” Zach mumbles and looks down at the floor.Sabrina lets out a small gasp.“What are you talking about, Zach?” She asks, kneeling in front of him, so they are eye to eye.“We heard my mom and dad,” Tony confesses. “If we can’t keep Sophie safe, you are going to leave and take her away. We like
Ted’s POV“Rogues?” Bill smirks. “You think rogues are going to be enough to save you?”“Call is made, Alpha,” Crystal tells me, putting her phone away.Now, I get to look smug.“Attack them,” Herbert tells his rogue friends.We all shift and prepare to take on the rogues. They charge us, but we stay on our border and wait.Me- Pack, back up. Don’t cross our border, no matter what.I see all my warriors start to back up. I do too. If we cross the border, it can be seen as an attack. I don’t want anyone to ever accuse Sol of such a thing.Herbert seems to realize what is happening. He knows if he attacks, his fragile hold to the Alpha Title will be shattered. It looks like he is about to order a pull back when the rogues cross the border, pushing four of his packmembers across as well.We start tearing into the onslaught.Bill is having particular fun tossing rouges into the air for Warriors in the rear to kill. He really is a sick bastard. Glad he is on my side.I keep killing, but I
Sabrina’s POVIt’s been four days, and a lot has happened. The royal inspectors are coming to the pack to conduct interviews this afternoon, the Hunters are settled into their new homes, our Warriors are on high alert, and Sophie landed a punch on Tony in her first pup training.Before the inspectors come, I am joining my first training class as well. Betty is coming with me since Ted is sure he would not be able to watch this.“Ok, class, our Luna will be joining us today. She wants to learn and the Alpha, Beta and I are expecting you to be helpful and respectful,” Betty explains to the class.Everyone seems really interested in me training. I learn the correct way to throw a punch today. Most of the girls in this class are teens, 16 and 17, who don’t have wolves yet, but have been training since they were 12.Did you know there is a correct way to make a fist? I do now. I know to throw it out with my hips and pull it back to a blocking position as quickly as possible.“Great class,
Ted’s POVThe buzzer to my office wakes me. My face is stuck on Sabrina’s chest with sweat acting as a binder. We only made love twice, but both were intense. Her body just knows what to do to make love, making it feel like more than just sex.The buzzer goes off again and I pull myself away. Sabrina whimpers in her sleep so I put a blanket over her.I pull up my pants and go to the door without a shirt.“Yeah,” I say, seeing Bill. I hold the door so he can’t see Sabrina.“Dude,” Bill steps back, I’m guessing the smell of sex is strong. “The royal inspectors arrived at the gate. Lynn is with Douglas.”“Fuck, well in that case, no shower,” I smirk. “Ask Betty to take all four kids to the safe room until they leave. I don’t want her seeing Zach at all.”Bill grins with a nod. “I’ll let everyone know to act as if you and Luna smell like this all the time.”I chuckle as I close the door.“You are insane,” Sabrina tells me, trying to hold back a smile after I tell her my plan.“Go get a dr
Tony’s POV“Hey, you okay?” Sophie asks me as we get ready to go downstairs.“I guess,” I smile. “Yoel ready?”“He and Gloria are taking an extra hour,” She shakes her head. “Both our sons are just like you.”“Oh yeah, how?” I ask, pulling her into my arms.“Insatiable,” She whispers, before leaning in for a kiss.We deepen our kiss and I know we could also use an extra hour, but we have guests to welcome. Our final act as King and Queen.Today, we hand over all responsibilities to our son, Theodore Sol Spartan, and his wife.I know Teddy managed to get a yes when he asked. Granted he asked in the garden under a Super-moon. Show off.“Gran,” We hear before the sound of fairy wings fill the air. “You look pretty.”Sabrina Sol Spartan, my granddaughter, my only grandchild right now, is 3. She was born with wings, extremely rare, but not completely unheard of. She has Teddy’s face but Pink hair and blue eyes.“What about Poppa?” I ask, stepping back so she can see my royal robe and crown.
45 days laterTeddy’s POVIt's the full moon after Luna, Quinn’s and MY Birthdays! Well, technically at Midnight I turn 18, which means tonight is our first shift.“Sorry, Baby,” Luna pouts as we stand with the other first shifters.“Mr. Perfect, I've never seen you sweat like this!” Quinn dries my head.“Yeah, all male wolves go through that before they get their wolf and meet their mate,” Dad smiles at Mom. “I was a puddle.”Mom smiles and they share a kiss.I feel it in my stomach and then it's like a snap.I smile when the snap is over.“Perfect,” Quinn and I say in unison as the pack cheers.“Okay,” Dad claps, getting everyone’s attention. “First time shifters. Let the wolves come forward!”I hold Quinn’s hand until I don't have a hand to hold anymore. I feel my bones adjust but it is not horrible. Perks of being an Alpha.“Breathe, Baby!” I hear Zane talk to Luna.She really struggling.I look over and Quinn is completely shifted. Her eyes still glow purple, but her fur is a dee
Lizzie’s POVAs we walk through the portal, we see a smirking Ora. And iron spears pointed at every Faerie in Faerie Land“Cutting it close,” She smirks. “You only had two minutes left. Where is the bitch?”“We are not bringing her,” Dad says. “You are coming with us.”“Oh, I don’t think so. See everyone thinks I am a talentless Fairy, but I’m not,” She smiles. “I have the talent to take from others. And I took from my witch friends the ability to cast spells. So, I cast a spell on all these iron weapons. If I die, so does every fairy except my own sister.”Ora makes a fake pout.“If you cast a spell, then I can undo it,” Camila tells her.Ora looks at Camila with narrowed eyes. I see the spears inch closer to their victims.Soraise protects the nest. Moving the old woman out of the way. I look over and see a spear at my Uncle Solen too.Camila holds Ora glaze and I inch closer to my Uncle.Dad- Can you get to him?Me- You and Camila keep her attention.Dad- Camila?Me- She is my m
Teddy’s POV“I have to get my mother ready for her brother’s death and we need to seal up the pack tight,” Mom tells Dad.Dad nods to agree.“So, you agree, we can’t give her Perfect,” I say, surprising them and me.“Of course, we can’t,” Mom shakes her head.“Son, we would never sacrifice anyone,” Dad tells me. “There isn’t much we can do for Solen, but we can keep everyone else we love safe.”“Especially now that we know the who and what she wants,” Mom says. “I will need Quinn to help manage Mom’s pain.”“I’m sure Perfect will be willing to help in any way she can,” I nod.We go out to tell everyone.Sueanna and Jefferson are still kneeling in submission.“We spoke to Ora, she has Solen,” Dad tells everyone.Sueanna sobs.“What does she want?” Gran asks.“She wants Quinn,” Mom answers.“Then I will go,” Quinn says.“No way in hell, my Uncle would kill me if I allowed it. Trust me, Solan has made peace with the fact we are not coming after him,” Mom explains.“She is right,” Gran ag

And her special guest is tied to a chair, waiting for his big moment.She knew by adding the Clemmons scent they would put it all together. In a very short time, Quinn will be 18 and fully come into her powers. Ora cannot let that happen.From the moment Quinn was born, everyone was so proud of the Hybrid. Beautiful, powerful, kind, blah, blah, blah. Quinn is the bastard affair baby of her stupid father and a slut she-wolf. She is nothing and Ora plans to make sure the world knows it.Everyone always thought Ora was talentless, but she is beautiful, and she will use that beauty to get her way. No matter who she has to kill. Her father and his slut were so easy. They almost slept right through it.But Quinn was useful! After she killed Quinn’s parents, she discovered her talent!Ora could tap Quinn’s power to look like she
Teddy’s POV“Dad, you okay?” I ask, seeing him come back with blood on his arm.“It’s your Mom’s blood,” Dad tells me.I feel panic rise but Mom walks in.“I’m fine,” Mom rolls her eyes.“She won’t go to the hospital,” Zach says, coming in behind her.“Mother is being stupid,” Liz tells us.“I’m fine, look it healed,” Mom shows us her shoulder.“Let’s meet in the office,” Dad says, holding Mom close to him.“Liz, you too,” Mom says, surprising me and Liz.“Okay, these guys had a scent,” Krista says, joining us.“I know, I caught it too,” Mom adds.Dad and Zach agree.“I don’t want to believe it,” Liz says.“I don’t want to think it but,” Mitch says, looking at his parents.“We scented it too, Soph,” Greg said.“We have to get Mom in here,” Zach says.“I just want to call her to ask,” Mom shakes her head.Dad hands her the phone but hits the speaker as it starts to ring.“Clemmons Packhouse,” A lite airy voice answers.“Luna Sueanna please,” Mom says.“May I ask who is calling?” The gi
Teddy’s POV15 months after the visit to the lawyer.“Perfect, where are you?” I am looking all over for Quinn, who is hiding.Today, we graduate high school. If I can find our Valedictorian.“I never meant to be so smart,” Quinn is hiding in the hollow of a tree.I kneel down so I can talk to her.“But this is a great honor, come on, Baby,” I hold out my hand.“You look handsome,” she tells me.“You like me all dressed up?” I ask, pulling her into a hug and kiss.“I like you anyway I get you,” She teases me.I laugh with her as I hold her.“You ready?” I ask and she shakes her head.“It’s gonna be okay. You have a great speech, it’s short, sweet, and to the point. It’s going to be okay.” I kiss her nose.“I turn 18 soon, then you turn 18, what if we aren’t mates?” She asks, her pink hair smelling strong of lilac.“Hey, look at me,” I force her to look at me. “I love you and that is all that matters. Now, come on, before Zane mounts Luna again and we have to wait for them to shower ag
**Trigger Warning- self-harm, suicide, murder**Zane’s POV“Please tell me you are lying?” Luna asks as I explain what happened. She is sitting on the couch and with Quinn hugging her and me kneeling in front of her.“Baby, there is nothing in the world I want more than to be lying to you,” I tell her.“Perfect, don’t take her pain unless she asks,” Teddy reminds Quinn.Quinn nods but hugs Luna anyway.“Luna?” Mr. Whitman runs to her other side. “What has happened? Where is Marsha?”Saved by the Queen and King of Perfect Timing, Sophie and Tony come in to explain.“Carl, I am going to explain to you what happened and then I am going to ask you what you want to do,” Tony starts and Mr. Whitman nods. “Michelle, Davis’s mate, was brought into the hospital today for severe pain. The Doctors found it was betrayal pains. When mates cheat, the innocent party feels the pain of the betrayal and the more it happens the more intense the pain. Michelle admitted to Sophie only a few minutes ago th
Zane’s POV“Hey, Babe?” Luna calls me from my bedroom.“Hey, Baby,” I answer from my bathroom.“No shirt and gray sweatpants?” Luna eye fucks me as I shave.“You like what you see?” I ask, running the razor down my neck.“You know I do,” She is teasing me.“Zane,” I hear mom’s voice in my room.I pull Luna into the bathroom and shut the door.“Yeah, Mom?” I yell out.“I can smell her, Zane. Both of you, out here,” Mom demands.Luna and I come out.“What’s up, Mom?” I ask crossing my arms across my chest.“Henry and I are going home. Do you want to come with us?” Mom asks.“Mom, I am home,” I use my arms to show her my room.“You are not the Crown Prince anymore, you don’t have to be here,” Mom tells me.“I’m staying and I can’t believe you even asked,” I roll my eyes and pull Luna with me into the bathroom.I hear Mom leave and I look at Luna.“She is your mother, Babe, you were really mean to her,” Luna sits on the counter and makes me look at her. “Why were you so mean to her?”“She
