2024-10-29 19:42:56~ RIG ~
When we’d settled into our seats, my hand gripped to a fist on the arm of my chair, and Stephen gripping his own ankle like it was a parachute, I just waited.
I couldn’t stop staring at Stephen, trying to wrap my head around the fact that he was there. And he let me. He didn’t bristle at the scrutiny. I’d told him to tell me the story of what happened with Dad, and he was clearly trying to figure out where to start.
His eyes went distant and he shook his head. “You aren’t wrong about it all being really fucked up,” he muttered. “But you aren’t right about why you think I did it, either. So… just let me paint the whole picture before you jump in, okay?”
I shrugged my reluctant agreement and waited.<

~ RIG ~I stared at Stephen and waited, but his foot was jiggling and he just stared back.“So, that’s it?” I asked. “He told you what you had to do, and you just… did it?”My brother’s jaw went tight. “We agreed on some terms—which boiled down to the fact that I could never reach out to any wolf, ever. And that if I ever did challenge him, he’d deny any knowledge and then kill me himself. And Harmony, too. If I left him alone, she was safe.”“That’s such bullshit, Stephen. You really think if he wanted her dead, he would have hesitated?”Stephen frowned. “Of course he would—I was in line to inherit. If he killed my mate, it wo

~ RIG ~I wasn’t sure I’d ever felt more conflicted.I’d been mad about Stephen calling me little bro again, and yet there was a part of me that wanted to grin and flip on my back, bare my balls and urge him to take over. A part of me that maybe understood, just a little bit, why he’d taken the chance to just duck and run when Dad came at him.Only a part, though.As much as I had admired my brother and who he was, as much as he was responsible for teaching me to have a heart, instead of my father’s cruel ambition, the truth was, that had all been a boy’s view of his big brother. Hearing this story, knowing the lay of the land—understanding how all of this affected wolves, espe

~ RIG ~“Family?” I blinked. “Are you guys—”“No,” he said tightly. “I meant… I meant Harmony and the other wolves.”I waited, but he just held my gaze warily and didn’t offer anymore.What was happening for them? What didn’t he want to tell me?“So, you’re saying unless I take this pack from you, you’re out? That’s it? Done?”His jaw rolled and he turned away, looking out the windows in the direction the girls had gone, his eyes pinched. “I’m saying… I’m saying that the risk is too high. I’m not going back to the city. I’m not facing Dad. I’m saying that’s your job, if you want it.”Then he looked at me, and I d

~ RIG ~Stephen was still gaping at me when I was done filling him in. He’d been paying such attention to me, he hadn’t really registered Mack and Natalie’s matebond.“And they’ve known this… for years?”I nodded. “I know, it’s crazy—”The door opened behind me and every hair on the back of my neck stood up because I hadn’t heard anyone approach, but as soon as I was on my feet and turning, the air from outside flowed in, bringing with it the scents of the girls.Relief washed over me.Stephen and I both hurried towards the door.‘You okay?’
Hunted by My Alpha 206. News from Home
~ RIG ~Harmony looked relieved.I turned to Cara. “Stephen won’t fight my father. But he’s agreed to let other wolves come help us if they want to. So they’ll come as… free agents. They’re there to help, but they aren’t my wolves.”Cara frowned harder. “But wasn’t the whole point to bring in more wolves to increase your power so that you could beat your dad? Do they still help you if they aren’t yours?”“Not the same way, but they shift the numbers in an outright battle.”“But you don’t want it to come to that, right?”“Right.”

~ CARA ~“What?” Me and Rig both gasped at the same time. I could vaguely hear Charlie in Rig’s headphones, swearing. Rig stood up and started towards me, but the headphones yanked him back. He was going to rip them off, but then he must have remembered Charlie.“Just hang on, Charlie. This is news for me too.” Then he glared at Stephen, who was striding towards him from the kitchen. “What the fuck are you talking about?”“That thing—you called it the Night Walker. That’s the thing hanging around town, right?”“Yeah—it’s attacked like five different girls now.”Stephen shook his head. “It’s done a lot more than that, but I
Hunted by My Alpha 208. Agenda
~ RIG ~“A pack that can kill wolves,” Stephen breathed.A bolt of adrenaline speared through me as I caught his point. A creature that was specifically equipped to kill people, and wolves? And it was loose in our territory?But Cara spluttered and flapped a hand. “No. No. I couldn’t kill a wolf.”I looked at her sharply, and she caught my gaze, her eyes widening.She licked her lips. “Rig, you can’t seriously think—”“You haven’t been trained, but your instincts, Cara, if those were honed. If he’s thinking he’ll make a bunch of you and then teach you… if my dad was using this guy to get ri

~ RIG ~ I let my upper lip curl up and bare my teeth. Let him see that he was dealing with a helluva lot more than a spoiled rich kid. His instincts were dulled by humanity and alcohol, but even his dimwitted senses caught the flash of my teeth. He stiffened. I smiled. “My wife wants to share her wedding with her Mom—we eloped, but we’ve just watched some friends getting married and it’s making her think about what we missed, so we’re going to do it properly. Make another memory. And Cara wants to share that with her mom. So, we’re going to renew our vows in front of everyone we care about. Which, sadly, includes you.” He smiled and I wanted to bite his face off. “You are invited,” I growled. “But you

SOUNDTRACK: “Your Daughter” by Chase McDaniel. ***** ~ RIG (Three weeks later) ~ Getting out of my jeep in the driveway of the house that was the site of Cara’s torture turned my stomach. My Alpha power—still difficult to contain at times, making me itchy and prone to aggression—surged as I took in the cracked cement with weeds and grass growing up, the overgrown flower beds now little jungles of three foot weeds, and the grass that was thin and patchy, and mostly dead. This was the place that her fucking father had made her believe no one could love her. This was the place she’d been hurt. This was the place I wanted to burn to the fucking ground. But for today, at least, that wasn’t the assig
Hunted by My Alpha 247. Fight For You
SOUNDTRACK: “Unbearable” by Nathan Wagner. ***** ~ CHARLIE ~ Watching Mack salivate over Natalie as she walked up the aisle was a very specific kind of torment. Because even though I was supposed to be watching our friends publicly vow themselves, my eyes kept drifting back to Meg who, alongside Cara and Tessa, was standing with Natalie today. She looked… stunning. Natalie, always with the impeccable taste that I didn’t understand, but could fully appreciate, had draped all the girls in floor-length, light-green, figure-hugging-but-not-clinging dresses that revealed flesh without being suggestive. It was fucking torture.
Hunted by My Alpha 246. The Gift
~ MACK ~ When Natalie and Cara finally reached us on the stage, I knew that there was an exchange with the officiant. Cara and Rig said something, but I didn’t hear it. I just took Natalie’s hands and pulled her up to stand in front of me. I was aware of people speaking after that. The officiant—a wolf who’d been among the rebels, whose aunt was human, and had become ordained—spoke for a few minutes about marriage and what it meant, but all I could think about was the deep pools of her eyes, that hollow in her throat that she’d offered me the night before last, and how my entire blood hummed with love and desire and— There was a ripple of laughter. “Oh, what?” I asked. Someone had asked me something. Oh, right. “I do!”
Hunted by My Alpha 245. Finally
SOUNDTRACK: “Don’t Give Up on Me” by Andy Grammar ***** ~ MACK ~ I had been shitting myself. Absolutely, one hundred percent, about-to-claw-my-own-hair-off, crapping my pants. When Cara told me about the human traditions around a wedding, and what she was planning to do with Rig for their vow renewal—which included not seeing or sleeping with each other the day before the ceremony, which sounded crazy—I’d joked with Natalie that we should do that too. I’d thought it would be cute and maybe increase anticipation for when we did come back together after the ceremony. I hadn’t banked on my mate getting cold feet about doing this in front of the packs, and how her nerves would kick my insecurities into gear—and that the whole damn thing would b
Hunted by My Alpha 244. In the Right Place
SOUNDTRACK: “Break Your Fall” by UNSECRET and Marc Scibilia. ***** ~ NATALIE ~ “This is stupid and… and indulgent and it doesn’t matter! I should never have agreed to this. It’s nothing but a dumb, human tradition and… it means nothing. I’m not doing it.” I stood in the bedroom that we’d made into a bridal suite—complete with three-way mirror—and folded my arms. I’d been staring at myself and all I could see were the imperfections. Tessa had done a beautiful job on my make up, but everything else just felt… sticky. My dress was a touch too tight around my breasts. There were too many people here and they were all going to be staring. I could feel Mack out there panting with nerves, but what if he didn’t like the dress? I should have shown it to him! Why had I let Cara talk me into all this traditional nonsense? “Natalie, you get your gorgeous ass out there and marry that man before he sweats through his Armani suit,” Cara growled. “Seriously, don’t make me turn it into an orde
Hunted by My Alpha 243. Done
~ RIG ~I started towards her, but was halted almost immediately as I watched in awe while my mate carved through lines of wolves as if they were butter.Claws, teeth, whirling body—despite her bulk, she moved like liquid, tail lashing and claws like wicked hooks designed to tear through fur and flesh.I shook and trembled because my father’s power was shifting to me and my veins were boiling with it—while the rest of me simmered in the rising rage and terror of the wolves around us.The transfer of Alpha should have been peaceful. There was an established hierarchy waiting, swelling with the newfound power. But my father was a liar and cheat, and he’d encouraged his wolves towards the same.The hierarchy, the elders, his advisors, every pack and family of power rolled towards us, howling in rage and fear.And my wolves, newly risen and brimming with the triumph of victory and the added confidence of success, tore right back to meet them.Mack, Charlie, Jack, and Natalie tore for me,
Hunted by My Alpha 242. When Hell is Broken
SOUNDTRACK: “Legendz” by AG and Devvon Terrell ***** ~ RIG ~ Everything slowed to a crawl, time seemed almost not to move at all as I watched my father go for my mate and I turned, twisting, pushing my body in ways I never had, panic screaming in my head, frantic to reach him before he got her. I couldn’t move fast enough. He was going to land at her feet before I did and his power would carry him right to her throat. She wasn’t equipped for this… It all washed through me in that second—the rage for what he’d done, the fury about his injustices, the anger that he would still cheat, even before the witnesses, and the shocking weight of grief because that was my mate. But then the second wave arrived that left me desperate, panicked, humiliated and hating myself. If she died right now it was my fault. My side screamed in pain as I launched myself after him, but my father seemed to hang in mid-air. I had time to see Cara bare her teeth and crouch. Everything moved so slowly I could
Hunted by My Alpha 241. Death on Four Legs
~ RIG ~My father saw the opening he’d been waiting for, gathered himself on his haunches and launched at me, the light of victory in his eyes.Instinctively, I didn’t even try to meet the attack, just leaped straight into the air in an attempt to deflect, dropping my chin, trying to hide my throat as my father snaked in—and to my horror, he would have taken me, except that was the moment Stephen howled in the link, then sent images to us both:Himself. Head bowed. Shoulders rolled forward. His human form submitted.To me.It was a boom of thunder right over my head. In any context, the submission of an Alpha brought al
