Ted’s POV
Once we know Tony is going to be okay, we need to figure out how Sedit got free and where he is.“Yoel is not picking up,” Bill tells me.We have both been trying for a couple of hours.“Time to roll that way,” I tell him.We see smoke, fire and ash as we pull up to Onslaught’s headquarters.“Oh, shit,” Bill says, jumping from the car while it is still moving.“They never sounded the Alarm,” I say, looking at the destruction.“Boss,” Bill calls me over to his side.I see it, Yoel’s body burned and lifeless.“We need to find as many bodies as we can,” I tell him.I call for my S & R team, knowing today the R is for Recovery, not Rescue.“It’s David,” Bill yells, throwing debris off the body.I rush over, begging all the gods that he is alive. But I only see half of him.Bill is crying loudly, and I can’t help it, I am too. Bill reaches up and closes the boy’s eyes.“How the hell did this happen?” I ask, looking around.“We need to go to Veronica. She needs to know what happened to Yoel and David,” Bill says, composing himself.I nod and we keep looking around for answers to tell her.When the team arrives, we find 600 burned bodies.“Bill,” Betty says, tending to one body with tears in her eyes. “We don’t need to tell Veronica anything.”I walk over and see what Bill and Betty do. Yoel’s wife and David’s mother lifeless.“Alpha,” The leader of my team calls me. “We identified all the bodies. Onslaught Rage has been wiped out.”I shake my head. “Do we have any ideas of what could have caused this much damage so quickly that no one thought to hit the panic buttons?”“Not yet. We are working on that,” he tells me. “So far, we are working off the theory of bombs throughout the compound, set off at once.”“Keep working,” I tell him.“What do we tell our kids?” Sabrina asks me.“Nothing until we know what happened. I don’t want Sophie and Krista upset more; they are pregnant. We can fill in Zach and Tony when we know for sure what caused this,” I tell her.We all agree this is our secret for now.Sophie’s POV Tony needed a few days to recover, but Zach, Krista and I were back at school Monday morning. We were all surprised that Daisy was there with her cheerleader minions. The school wasn’t on the packlands, so she wasn’t breaking any rules, but still. Neal came up to us as we stood at our lockers. “I didn’t take Daisy back,” Neal said. “But we did have sex last night and she did this.” He pulls his collar back and shows us his mating mark. “Well, you did take Daisy back,” I say. “She marked you as hers. That’s forever. Good luck.” Zach shakes his head as we leave Neal looking dumbfounded. “Shit,” we heard him say as we left. “What a freaking dumbass!” Tony laughs as I’m tell him after school. “What else happened?” “Well, I told him as a pack member I couldn’t associate with rouges or their mates, so to stop talking to me. I explained that if Daisy is killed, it will likely kill him too. You should have seen hi
Tony’s POVI smile and we kiss once more before going into class. When Neal walks in he looks worse than Sophie described. I was expecting bad, but this makes me mouth ‘WOW’ to my Princess.“Hey,” Amanda says to me. “Daisy is looking like death. Is that what happens to rouges?”“Dad said he didn’t know what it was. He is talking to the elders,” Sophie tells her. “It’s nice of you to care.”“So, is anyone going to announce exactly what crimes Daisy committed?” Amanda asks.Sophie looks at me for an answer.“She attempted to have Zach mark her under false pretenses,” I answer.Amanda is the most respectful she-wolf but when I laid this down, she looked me directly in the eyes.“You have got to be joking!” Amanda didn’t break eye contact with me. “I can’t believe it, poor Luna. I’m so glad she failed.”She broke our eye contact and turns to Sophie. “Can you imagine Daisy as Luna?”We all three shiver at the thought.**When we got home to
Tony’s POVEveryone stares at her as she looks at her dad. She rubs my back so that I continue to calm down. I move my hand back to her bare thigh. The skin to skin really helps.Alpha clears his throat, clearly holding something back, Dad also shifts in his seat. They are hiding something.“The elders seem to think it’s a rare reaction. Only happens in a few cases throughout history. Normally, marking overrides a rejection, but when a human does the rejecting and then is forcefully marked, it can in very rare cases, turn from bonding to poison. They are poisoned by the mark.”“So, Daisy and Neal are dying?” Sophie asks concerned. Now, I am comforting her.“Very slowly, they could live a normal life span, but it will be a depressed and sad life,” Alpha explains.“Is there anything we can do for Neal?” I ask, feeling Sophie’s sadness.Alpha looked a little surprised. “Turn him. If he becomes a wolf, we can save him. But that only works if he is destined to
Sophie’s POVI took some time to think it over before I jumped on the phone. I mean, he dated me so he could get closer to his fuckbuddy behind my back. Let him suffer a little.On Saturday, I cuddled up to Tony and made the call.“Hey, Soph, I thought you couldn’t talk to me?” Neal’s voice was weak and sounded so sorrowful.“I have permission. Listen, my dad has talked to the council of elders and it might be possible to save you from this depression that has taken you over.”“Yeah, I have to be turned by an Alpha. I had a pack doctor from the Chestnut Pack tell me. Daisy has been accepted there, for now. They weren’t too pleased I’d been forcefully marked.”“So, are you going to let Alpha Chestnut turn you? My dad and Zach have offered and have the permission they need.”The line was silent for a while.“Sorry, Daisy is having sex with someone again. The pain is more intense now that I have this mark. She is such a freaking slut!” Neal sounds in rea
Sophie's POV “Do humans feel the pull like wolves?” Olivia asks. She has fixed another glare on me, so I answer. “Yeah, not as intense at first, but once we give ourselves over to it, it’s all consuming.” I explain.“If you fight it,” Mom tells us. “It becomes painful. “Humans feel it differently for sure, but we feel the pull none the less.” Olivia nods, not breaking eye contact with me. She is trying to show dominance. As a Beta, I should avert my eyes. As an Alpha’s daughter, that’s never going to happen. I might be human, but I am not about to let anyone dominate me in my own house. I may let Tony think he has a say in my live, or any control at all, but that is for show. He really is a Simp and there is no way in hell some cut rate former Luna, who was unable to keep her Alpha satisfied, is going to make me back down in my house. You picked the wrong Princess, Bitch. I step in front of Tony in a defensive stance. Dad is on edge and sh
Sophie’s POVWhen Neal said Mate in that serious tone, staring right at me, it took me a second to realize! Oh, he’s an asshole, but this could be fun.“Nice try,” Tony laughed.Zach looked on edge and narrowed his eyes at Tony.“No, I feel a pull,” I say playing along.“Nice try, what did you two work this out beforehand. Okay, fine. No tingles on the inside,” Tony smirks at me.“Okay, I surrender,” I say, latching onto Tony.Neal busted out laughing. “I can’t believe you played along,”I shrugged. “I figured Tony could use a good prank, after all the pranks he pulled.”“Too bad I know she is mine and am very secure in my relationship,” Tony smirks, before kissing me. “Besides, she would never give up tingles on the inside.”Every mated female in the room shivers. Those tingles are the best.“Okay, well, still my daughter,” Dad says, slapping Tony’s head. “Neal, how do you feel?”“I’m feel better than I have in days.”“Great, so n
Graphic Descriptions Ahead.Tony's POV“Get Greg in here now,” Alpha orders. “Baby, I need to know everything you have eaten and drank in the last four hours.”“I want video coverage of Princess Sophie’s moves for the past four hours.” I hear dad say.Sophie is talking, everyone is trying to get information. And my head is buzzing. Suddenly, I remember Olivia’s face when she shook Sophie’s hand. The way she eyed Sophie after.“Check her right-hand doctor. Check me too,” I cut through everyone.“Yes, future Beta,” the doctor swaps our hands and hurries off.“Olivia,” Luna whispers. “Hand Lotion?”I nod as I consider everything.“The reject was fake, she didn’t use titles,” I say. “Princess, I don't want to leave you but I need to get the one responsible for hurting you. I love you.”“I love you too,” Sophie pulls my shirt for a kiss before I leave.Dad, Zach and I return to Olivia’s room. Neal is unconscious on the ground, bleeding fro
Ted’s POV“I called this meeting because there has been an attack on our pack,” I say, after the wolfsbane antidote had been administered to Tony, Sophie and Neal.Bill, Betty, Greg, Gwen, Zach, Krista, Tony and Sophie are seated around the room. Sabrina is sitting beside me holding my hand.“Why attack us? Why attack Sophie?” Tony asks. He is holding my daughter as tightly as he can.“This was a test balloon, and we failed. We let Olivia play us. I doubt Alpha Mark ever cheated on her. He’s young but it takes a monster to cheat on their mate.” I explain. “Greg, what did Chad and Jordan find?”“Daisy is at the Chesnut pack, but she is the pack bimbo. She is being used for sex.” Greg says.“Could this be a rumor to get us to go after her?” I ask.“Yes, which is why I’m skeptical of this information,” Greg nods. “What we know for sure is Olivia returned to the pack.”“They knew Tony would want to bring her here if she was being cheated on,” I explain. “
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
Third Person in Faerie Land.Queen Ora surveys her minions. King Liam is frozen in time, Mag is under mind control, all the Faerie Warriors are armed and on Standby. 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
