Gavin Montgomery pov

Heading back to my pack, my mind was full of images of Athena during our mating and then the blood-stained straw inside the cell. I couldn't determine what had happened to her and Veronica nor Jordan had been any help.

“If they inflicted harm on her I'm vowing to personally end both of their lives,” I asserted with a scowl.

My Lycan Rudik agreed with me wholeheartedly but then mentioned Justine…

"You must tell the chit the truth and end the farce engagement,” he stated firmly.

Lowering my eyes I pinched the bridge of my nose and growled.

“I will tell her that I have found my real mate and plan on making her my queen. She will have to decide what she plans to do,” I muttered as I pulled up in front of my house and glanced up at the door.

“Her Dad is going to be pissed,” I huffed.

“Why, he is not the one who is getting refused to marry,” Rudik growled.

My cell phone started ringing and I answered it.

Listening to the person on the other line, I grew surpri

    Gavin Montgomery pov Grabbing the end of the rope attached to the three prisoners I jokingly said, “Mush,” while whipping it lightly. Informing them of where I was taking them the youngest male turned to eye me incredulously. “You're going to release us?” Shaking my head I explained that I was going to swap them for a female that I assumed his parents had captured. “We're sorry for stealing food from you, sir,” the young man added, and I nodded. “Next time, just come to my house and ask; I will be generous with my stock and donate provisions,” I explained, surprising the young lad. Heading down the main road of my pack village I watched the three of them glancing around in awe. “Have you rogues thought about joining an actual pack? You could ask as long as you contributed your manpower then you would have regular meals and possibly the chance for your very own family,” I asserted. The three prisoners started speaking with each other while I steered them toward the field where

    Athena Blackstone pov Seeing my mother’s necklace in Gavin's possession I gasped and reached out for it. “You repaired it for me?!” I sighed in disbelief. “I had the means to the right individual that could restore it to its original splendor, so I did; it was the least I could do for you after that amazing night we shared,” he said with a grin. I smiled back at him as I expressed my thanks. Putting it back on around my neck I looked down at the heart pendent and wiped the moisture collecting in my eyes. “This means a lot, thank you,” I told him truthfully. Glancing at Gavin I thought that perhaps not all men were assholes. “There are others that have proven themselves, like Anton and Seth, the two guards you trained with,” Bria stated in my subconscious. “True, but only Anton still breathes; Seth was ill and passed away,” I muttered sourly, catching Gavin's attention. “What are you mumbling about,” he asked playfully and I told him that I was just thinking out loud. “Um,

    Athena Blackstone pov Standing there in the foyer I glanced over at the interior of his home and swallowed nervously. It was the largest house that I had ever been in, and I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. “Let me give you a quick tour before I show you to your room. I have housekeepers that come in the morning and leave after dinner. They are a mother-and-daughter pair. Henry is the mom, and Sally is the daughter. Henry's husband, Dwayne, is my chef. I will introduce you to them in the morning,” he informed me, and I laughed. “Henry?” Grinning, he nodded and explained that her real name was Henrietta, but she preferred just Henry. “I feel that Henry and I will get along fabulously,” I chirped as he brought me into the formal room with a large dining table off in the corner of the big open room. Pointing out to the glass wall, he informed me that there was a wrap-around porch that surrounded the structure. “The kitchen is through that door and another lounge area is back that w

    Athena Blackstone pov Having the best sleep in my life, I was unaware of the blue-eyed female glaring down at me with daggers in her big eyes. Rolling over to my side Bria was growling in my subconscious and yelling at me to wake. “Why should I? This bed is like a cloud,” I responded to her in my head. “Just open your eyes, Geesh,” she huffed. Cracking open my eyes a little bit they opened widely at the big eyes blinking at me. The female was leaning over my face and smiling strangely. “Good morning sleepyhead,” Justine said with a child-like enthusiasm. “Why are you here?” I growled only to hear her laugh. “I have decided to befriend you since we both are in love with Gavin,” she announced, causing me to furrow my brow. “Well, I am going to get clothes with him this morning and don't have time to entertain you,” I growled in annoyance, only to see her scrunch her face. “Sorry, but his highness left earlier this morning after we shared breakfast. It was very special,” she s

    Athena Blackstone pov “Let me introduce you to my staff,” Gavin offered. “Oh crap, I met Henry already and she was making me breakfast. She's going to think that I'm an asshole for not keeping my word,” I muttered and pulled on his hand to return to the kitchen. When we both entered Justine was at the small table eating with tears streaming down her cheeks. A young female was rubbing her back and glanced at us with sadness. “Did you hear Highness, about her dad,” she asked in a whisper. Gavin nodded and said,” Athena, that is Sally, Henry's daughter and I am going to assume that was your breakfast so we can grab a bite in the village after shopping.” Capturing my elbow with his fingers he steered me away from the emotional mess. Nearing my ear he said, “Justine’s being a drama queen and wasn't even close to her dad. She was closer to mine.” Finding that an odd thing to say I side-eyed him strangely. “You must be close to her to know so much,” I asserted and he shrugged. “We

    Athena Blackstone pov “You still need to meet my Beta Nick, and speaking of the devil, hold on,” Gavin announced excitedly and stood up quickly and ran to the shop door. The shop clerk started laughing and said, “You're great for him, we haven't seen him so happy since he was made the King.” “Really?” She nodded and whispered, “That other female is not right in the head, but his highness treats her well, but he was never smiling like he does with you. Oh, I better get back. He's returning with Nick.” Watching her scamper back behind the baked goods, I turned my head when Gavin said my name. “Athena Blackstone, meet my second, Nick Johnson,” he announced as I glanced past him to the grinning bearded gentleman. “He has some interesting news,” Gavin added as he came to my side and told Nick to tell me. Waving at me in greeting Nick glanced at Gavin in confusion. “Go on and repeat what you told me,” Gavin encouraged him. “I spoke with Justine’s dad and he wanted to know what ups

    Gavin Montgomery pov Hearing what Athena said I grew concerned and turned her to face me. “I will take my guards to the Harvest Moon Pack and confront Veronica and Jordan. This obsession with you must end, Athena,” I stated forcefully. Seeing her brow crease she pinched her mouth and shook her head. “I don't want to create an issue between both packs. I will just need to be cautious. I'm a warrior, Gavin, not someone who runs from issues; I face them head-on,” she said softly, and I raised my brow at her. Thinking about Justine and her I snickered. “Then you should handle the distrust you have for me and the annoyance upstairs,” I rebuked and watched her eyes narrow at me. “That is completely different and you know that,” she growled. “She is purposely making it appear that you two are fucking each other,” she hissed and crossed her arms. “Invite her on a picnic and inform her of what the contract entails,” Rudik suggested in my head and I sighed. “She may not want

    Athena Blackstone pov “What have I done,” I think to my wolf. “You almost marked your mate, dear, and you should have committed yourself to him since he is yours. He is the father of your pups, and your sons will need their father,” Bria said with irritation. “He is to marry that crazy chick and I am a warrior who should remain unburdened by a mate,” I replied to her bitterly. Tsking me she growled at me, “Accept that you are drawn to Gavin and make him yours! He is a worthy male.” Frowning over not marking the sexy man, I felt conflicted. My heart felt full of joy because I felt connected to him so vehemently yet I was fearful of getting hurt. I was a wolf warrior and with that came certain obligations, one remaining unmated. “It always has ended badly for me, Bria. When I start to have feelings for another,” I sighed “You enjoyed your mating just as much as you had the first time, just accept that Gavin is your destiny,” my wolf asserted. “It wasn't as feral as our f

    Athena Blackstone pov “What are they discussing,” I asked Gavin and he shook his head before pulling me aside. “I feel like you should play your part when we arrive at the home of Veronica and Jordan. I want you to wear a gown instead of the guard clothing you normally wear,” he said uncomfortably and I screwed up my face while giving him a sour look in return. “How am I supposed to fight in a damn dress?” I balked. Holding my upper arms he pinched his mouth and stared at me. “I don't care what you wear around here but I think you dressed up for your position will strike a nerve with both Veronica and her horrible mother. Don't you wish to rub it in that you're the queen and not her, eh?” Narrowing my eyes at him my lip started to curl upward. “I suppose that would be fun, but I will rip the dress off myself if I need to attack, so be sure to grab some pants just in case,” I muttered reluctantly, making him smile and kiss my forehead. Leaning over me he opened the kitche

    Athena Blackstone pov I opened my eyes suddenly in a complete panic with the sun beating down on my face, and I sat up in bed. Gavin shuffled himself toward me and muttered incoherently. He was still sleeping. “Did you hear the pups at all last night?” I asked him in concern. Blinking his eyes, he yawned and said, “No, I was knocked out and slept like the dead.” Making an annoyed sound I scrambled from the bed and rushed into the adjoining room. Glancing over the mattress I moved the pillows I had used as barricades and found no pups. “They are both GONE!” I shouted out. Gavin ordered me to stop just as I was about to run from the bedroom. “Dress yourself! Do not run around in the buff when other males are staying here!” Snatching the robe from his hand I growled sourly as I slipped it on and tore off down the hall. Scurrying down the stairs I saw Henry dusting in the living room. “Have you seen the pups?!” Nodding, she simply pointed upward and said, “Your friend Anton he

    Athena Blackstone pov After showing Henry, she was twirling Remy around the kitchen, and said, “I'm so happy for you and Gavin. Your pups are adorable! Um, where is his Highness?” Telling her he was in a meeting with the mercenary Alpha, her eyes widened. “Do I need to prepare another plate for supper?” Shrugging, I told her that she could just encase, and she nodded as she handed me back Remy. “Let me get two bottles for the pups so you can feed them while I finish supper. They will have full tummies and allow you to enjoy your meal in peace,” she said softly and I thanked her. After feeding them both I changed their cloth diapers and laid them down on either side of me on the couch. “What is taking my mate so long,” I huffed and sank back into the cushions. “And what about Gideon and Anton? They're searching for the pup that's here,” I muttered in irritation. The lack of sleep over the past few days was catching up with me, and I was slowly drifting off until Gavin started

    Athena Blackstone pov “How did he find her so quickly,” I questioned sullenly. “Styx has a direct line to the rogues, and once he got the whereabouts of your pup, he went there immediately and demanded her return. At least that's what the couple told me,” Gideon said. Rubbing my eyes I exhaled deeply and said, “He believes that she is his mate. How can he assume that without her reaching her maturity,” I growled. “Maybe he felt a connection with you and figured that your daughter would be his,” the assassin said reluctantly, causing me to glare at him. Henry, Dwayne, and their daughter Sally were approaching us, and Henry was wringing her hands nervously. Shoving her daughter forward she told her to tell us, gaining both our attention. “I'm giving my resignation, I will be working with another female starting immediately,” Sally stated firmly. I looked at Henry, and she waved her hands before herself and said that she and her husband were staying. Nodding, I side-eyed Gavin,

    Athena Blackstone pov Giving him a raised brow I leaned toward my mate and asked him if he was jealous of the younger man. Snorting at me he growled, “Certainly not!” Nodding, I said, “Don't be; Anton was one of my top students. I used to train the guards at my former pack and taught him since he was a youngster.” Grinning like a goof, Anton said, “Yeppers, that's who I am! Athena's TOP student.” Rolling his eyes Gavin apologized for thinking we were a thing and asked me if he was going to transfer to our pack. Shrugging I mumbled, “Perhaps you can ask him if he wants to.” Seeing Anton’s head bobbing up and down I giggled. “Guess that's a yes, which is fantastic since Hazel is mates with your Beta. I will have all my dear friends close to me,” I said cheerfully but then frowned. “Can we find Justine? Could she still be camped at the same location?” I asked Gavin as we continued toward his pack home. “Hey assassin, can you transfer yourself to people by seeing their

    Athena Blackstone pov Exhausted, I rested my head against my stretched-out arms that were hanging by the chain. I was surprised by Styx remaining wide awake at the table drinking straight from a bottle of liquor he had gotten from a chest tucked in the corner of the shabby room. “I've sent off the ransom note for your sake, or your head will be on a spike next to Mister Smith’s,” he snickered. “Oh, you're fucking hilarious,” I muttered, bringing his narrowed dark eyes toward me. Glaring back at him I asked him what? “What's it like having a mate,” he asked me bluntly, surprising me. Shrugging I pinched my lips together as I contemplated my answer. “Different from what my mother said it was. She was a deeply devoted warrior prodigy and despised men,” I said softly. Nodding his head, he exhaled deeply and said, “I have yet to meet mine, but I'm certain that they would find me hideous if they ever met me.” “Your mate will find you handsome no matter what but your line

    Gavin Montgomery pov Later that evening a sense of foreboding washed over me as I sat in the lobby of the infirmary. We had been there for the entire day as Derek Blackstone’s acquaintances came filing in to bid farewell to the man. Thinking about Athena leaving with the assassin outside of the infirmary earlier that day I was angry at myself for not putting my foot down. “Why did I allow her to go? How will I know if they need anything,” I thought to Rudik. “Gideon is capable of getting them both out of a sticky situation, so relax. Your mate is in good hands and also a well-trained warrior herself,” my Lycan responded. I shook off my unease when Azel started cooing in my arms. “Wish you could tell us what happened to your sister, little fella,” I mumbled softly to my son. He just blinked his big amber eyes at me in response. “Son, Derek's elite guards are arriving to get their Alpha and asked for help in preparing him for his entombment,” my dad called out to me. Nodd

    Athena Blackstone pov Rushing toward the frightening-looking man holding the knife in Chad’s gut, I jumped up and kicked him in his chest with both of my feet, causing him to stumble backward with his knife still in his hand. I quickly spun in the air and dropped to my feet before the blonde-haired man. Oblivious to the rifles pointed in my direction I grabbed his robe and lifted him to face me. Hearing the guards moving in my direction didn't faze me or my mission. I barely registered their guns raised in my direction. “Where is she!” I demanded with a snarl. My eyes were glowing dangerously at him needing answers. Chad Smith looked at me in utter confusion. “What in the fuck are you talking about?” “My baby girl that your daughter Justine and her mate Logan brought to you that you intend to raise and breed with, you sick son of a bitch,” I growled. Shaking his head he said, “I have disowned my daughter and haven't seen her since…Oh shit, you're the female the king re

    Athena Blackstone pov Drying my eyes I sighed and said, “We must find our daughter and inform the Gray Mountain pack of their Alpha’s passing.” “I'm sure Luna will make it known on her way out,” Gideon asserted and passed us through the open doorway. Gavin peered down at me oddly and asked me where my necklace was. Shaking my head I told him that it wasn't meant for me only to confuse him. Resentment filled me briefly about who I could have been, but once I glanced up at my mate's face, I realized that I had made the right choice. “Just know you're a lucky fucker,” I informed him and gestured for us to go into the lobby. Chuckling he said, “I do feel rather grand.” Side-eyeing him I shook my head and said, “We must find Henry and ask her about Sally. I think she's in cahoots with Justine and her father, Chad.” Giving me a concentrated glance as he mulled over my words, he hissed, “Henry and Dwayne left to go stay with other relatives; hmm, not suspicious at all.
