Hello everyone, this is just a free note with some key rules in my world as well as listing everyone’s mates and relationships, just to make certain things easier for those who are new readers or for those who have read book 1 and 2 a long time ago.
MATING
Mates can only be found on a Blood Moon and if they are over the age of eighteen.
The Blood Moon occurs twice a year.
-
MARKING
Werewolves can take chosen mates and even mark them. However only a true fated mates mark can remove the mark of another wolf.
Unless the true mate is no longer alive then an unmarked wolf can mark on top of a true mate’s mark and replace it.
-
PREGNANCY
Unless the female is marked, she cannot get pregnant, she does not need to have marked the male back to get pregnant.
Omega females are the only ones that can get pregnant without being marked.
Witches and human mates also needed to be marked to get pregnant.
Unlike werewolves, Lycans can get any kind of she-wolf pregnant without marking.
-
HEAT
If a she-wolf is marked yet hasn’t mated, she will go into heat which lasts around three days.
-
HAZE
If a male-wolf is marked yet hasn’t mated, he will go into a state of hunting for she-wolves to mate.
-
RANKING
Alphas – Pack leaders
Betas – Second in command
Deltas – Third in commands
Warriors – Trained wolves in battle.
Guards – Mainly working to protect the Alpha family and guarding pack grounds.
Omegas – Low rank wolves who take care of the pack in domestic manners.
-
Rogues - Werewolves without a pack
-
THE FOUR ORIGINAL FAMILIES
VOLKOV

DEIMOS

-

-
SOLARIS
The ability to control nature.

DISCLAIMER
Although, I have mentioned, gods and goddesses as well as other beasts and monsters, which I have taken inspiration from, from around the world and other lore, I’ve included my own twist on things that may not actually be true, below are two examples.
THE ORIGIN OF WITCHES - In my stories I have made them originate from Salem, Massachusetts.
MANANGALS – I took the inspiration behind this from the Manananggal which is a vampire-like mythical creature that originated from the Philippines.
Like the above, the rest of the supernatural beings have my own take on things.

I hope this has helped somewhat!
Thank you!
UNKNOWN I frowned, watching my father pace the room in anger, as I stood against the wall; chin up, shoulders back, hands crossed behind my back, ready and paying attention to whatever he might say. He took his jacket and gloves off, revealing his burnt skin. The side of his face was burned too, but it wasn’t as bad as the rest of his body. People found him quite scary with his skin all raw and burnt. The burns didn’t look normal either, they had an angry red shade to them despite them being there since before I was even born. But father was still the best, the strongest and the most powerful. "I asked you, men, to bring me the boy." Father hissed, staring at the four men who looked almost identical to each other, with their flaming red hair and pale orangey eyes. Power exuded from them, but it didn’t match father's, nowhere close. "Alpha… we tried, but he wasn’t making it easy, the boy or this girl-" "Did I ask you to talk back hijo de p**a?!
UNKNOWN I could hear the sounds of night animals outside my bedroom window hooting, howling, and crying out extremely loudly as I stared at the ceiling, laying on the hard plank of wood that was my bed. My room was luxurious enough, but as future Alpha, there were certain things I didn’t need and shouldn’t get used to. Like soft beds, for one, or blankets. As a werewolf, my body kept itself warm and it was better to get used to things than being spoiled with useless, unnecessary items. It had been a while since I talked to the Lycan’s daughter, but I couldn’t brush off how innocent she seemed. I know her father was a horrible person who owed my family a lot, and I know that inevitably she may die. But whilst she was alive, perhaps I could offer her some sympathy? Or something of the sort. I sat up remembering how her dress was torn at her waist, covered in bloodstains. She had lost a lot of blood too… I ran my hand through my black hair sighing. It wasn’t lik
KIARA When the first rays of dawn began to appear, that instinct that I had been following through the night, suddenly vanished. My wolf fell silent and I suddenly felt all alone. I was exhausted from the running as well. Should I stop and take a small break? Maybe it was better if I did, but I wont be for long, Kataleya was out there and I needed to find her. I wondered if Alejandro found out that I had left already… I'm sure he probably tried calling at some point… I shifted and dropped to my knees in exhaustion. I opened my bag, pulling out some sweatpants and a crop top, putting them on quickly before sitting back, feeling the pain in my legs and arms. Goddess… Kataleya. I hope she was ok, wherever she was… I would never be able to forgive myself if something happened to her. Please let her be safe… I stared at the sky, my heart clenching with worry as I tried to compose myself. The distant whimper of my wolf in my head told me she
KIARA "Very well, if you so wish to see him. Cover her eyes!" He finally commanded, his cold eyes almost biting into my skin. I would obey. The main thing was that I needed to buy Alejandro time. Was Kataleya ok? "I will allow you to blindfold my eyes, but first can I see my daughter?" I asked, trying my best to sound emotionless, despite the worry that was eating me up inside. He smirked. "You don’t make the rules here." "I’m only asking to see my daughter first." I growled venomously. "Just one look, to make sure she’s ok." He fell silent, mind linking someone before his sharp gaze turned to me. My aura was still around me, but I couldn’t keep it up, if I was to save Katalaya I needed all my energy level, which was already dropping. "You are in no position to ask for anything, remember that." He spat icily. "Fine." I clenched my jaw, but I didn’t want to do something so reckless that they did something
ALEJANDRO I was waiting for Kiara to show up when I heard my phone beep and knew it was her by the notification tone. I looked down at my phone, frowning when I clicked on the message. Reading her message, I opened the map, zooming in on her shared location. I texted her quickly, waiting for her reply before I mind linked the others. I needed to get to her location now. ‘Get everyone close enough to the location I'm forwarding now, head here and wait for my arrival.’ I forwarded the message before shifting and running off towards the location. I hadn't gotten far, when pain wrapped around me and I gripped my throat. My eyes blazing red as my aura raged around me. Kiara was hurt! ‘Kiara’s in danger! Eight miles northeast of Oxford! Move!’ I growled through the link. Hold on, Amore Mio… I'm coming. I had a fucking thousand questions running through my mind? The pain in my body lingered, meaning she was inj
ALEJANDRO The sun was setting through the window, casting red and orange hues around the room. As much as I wanted to be by Kiara’s side, I was doing what I knew she’d want me to, be there for our pups. "How you feeling?" I asked, sitting down on the sofa in the living room next to Dante, who was leaning back against the cushions, clearly exhausted. "I'm completely fine, Dad." He replied, despite the red pulsing veins that covered his body. "Yeah? Glad to hear you’re not a fucking wuss, but you know it’s ok to fucking say if shit hurts." I remarked lightly, reaching over and ruffling his hair. He gave me a cocky smirk. "Obviously, but I'm completely fine. I'm glad Kat’s back." He added, frowning slightly as he looked at Skyla, who was setting up the dollhouse for when Kataleya returned from her bath. Scarlett was showering her. We had been back an hour or so. After the doctor had checked her over, taking note of her injuries, she had then fallen asleep and had only woken up a sh
ALEJANDRO We returned to the mansion and entered the living room. I looked around at all the kids playing. The three girls were sitting on the carpet, with Kataleya in the centre. I could tell by the way that the girls were fawning over her that she was being taken good care of by them. Goddess, even these fucking pups knew when something wasn't right. I sat down next to Dante, running my fingers through his hair and ruffling it up. "So not getting fucking bored, are you?" "Nope. Besides, I get to watch TV and there’s so many episodes I've been wanting to catch up on, so why not do that now? I haven’t got anything better to do anyway. No schoolwork, no training, just chilling." He gave me a grin, but I could tell from his eyes that he wasn't ok, for me he was fucking trying. This was what I had done. Now my fucking pup who was only eight years old had to pretend that things were ok when they fucking weren’t. "Yeah. Make the most of it for now, because once you're better, you'll b
ALEJANDRO Apart from Kataleya, the other two were clearly finding this amusing. I sat on the other bed and Skyla giggled when the mattress creaked a little. The fuck it was creaking for? I'm sure these things were fucking expensive. "You are too big for that bed." Little Miss Obvious stated, tucking her black hair behind her ear. "You men really need to learn to sit on the floor when telling stories." "Yeah, is that where you get El and Liam sitting?" She smiled innocently. "Oh no, us Westwood’s don’t really sit on the floor." Skyla cackled like a witch. "Burn Daddy, she’s saying Westwood’s are better than Rossi’s!" “Yeah, well, I don’t think so. Now zip those mouths or no story." I growled. I am not going to argue with an eight-year-old brat. "Oh… So are you better than Kiara?" The sassy little devil pushed. I narrowed my eyes. "She’s a Rossi now." "Not by blood." She smirked. "Daddy, you are amazing. You don’t need anyone telling you that." Kataleya piped in gently.
Thank you for reading, please do take a moment to read this full note. First of all, I want to say thank you to each and every one of you for giving this book a try. I hope you enjoyed this book as much as I enjoyed writing it! This is the last book in the Alpha series, but as this journey comes to a close a new adventure awaits. Although I had originally wanted to make the Alpha series a 7 book series, with more ideas and due to the timeline I decided to make the next two books part of the spin-off series. The Rossi Legacies. Book 1 of the Rossi Legacies is coming to GoodNovel this September! Starting with none other than Leo Rossi and our Westwood devil herself! Keep an eye out for the book title: Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire - Some of you may have been here since I first started on my journey last year, whilst others have found me recently. I appreciate each and every one of you for giving my books a try. For those who are not on my social pa ges you will learn that I ha
RAYHAN "Let me take pictures with my girl!" Raihana said, forcing me to move away from Delsanra who I had up against a tree. I raised an eyebrow, but she didn’t wait for permission, pulling my kitten away with her. She was in a metallic gold dress herself, whilst Del looked fucking fine in a powder blue mini strapless dress with a dipping neckline, the dress was like a fitted ribbed corset that was cut in a V showing off her thighs, with a bling border and dangly strings of silver gems around the entire hem of it. Gems that glittered and swayed with every move she made. Her hair was up in a messy, sexy bun, and even now, as she talked to Raihana, she was the epitome of temptation and beauty. "I don’t know if I should be jealous of Delsanra or smug at the fact you’re suffering with me." Chris remarked, coming over. He was wearing a black and gold shirt with white pants. "Don’t you get bored wearing what she tells you?" I mocked, ignoring his taunt. He looked a little gutted. "She
SCARLETT I looked in the mirror, applying my trademark red lipstick. Years had passed but some things never changed, like my love for the colour red. I was wearing a sequined black dress that reached the ground, the sequins bleeding into a deep red from the knee downwards. There was also a thigh-high slit on the left. I had my hair sleekly straightened and I had just finished applying my lipstick when Elijah stepped out of the bathroom, already dressed in wine-red pants and jacket with a black shirt underneath it. His hair was styled sexily, letting his natural waves fall over his forehead, his sandy brown hair now sprinkled with a dusting of silver. He licked his lips as he looked me over his eyes flashing cobalt blue and his tongue piercing catching the light. Goddess, he still made my core throb, just like he always did. I could never resist this man. I bit my lip as I smoothed the fabric of my dress, slowly watching as he closed the gap between us, gripping my waist. "So, how
KIARA Just over one year later… It was new years eve and we had all been invited to the Blood Moon pack this year. Maria, Del, Ri, and everyone was here. This year, although we were having a huge party with the two packs tomorrow, today was just a smaller group which included the Beta and Delta families of the Blood Moon and the Blue Moon. It was now evening and me, Del, Ri, Raven, Robyn and Taylor were in the kitchen at Mom’s. Dinner had been prepared by Mom, Aunty Monica and Maria, so us six were responsible for the desserts. We’d had a late lunch and the kids had an early dinner before they had taken naps as the older ones wanted to stay awake for the fireworks. As for Asher, Sienna, Alessandra, and Heaven, they would be put to bed before midnight with Raihana saying magic would keep their rooms totally soundproof from the sound of fireworks. "Daddy, can I have another cookie?" Chase, Taylor and Zack’s three-year-old son, asked. "Not now, ok, Aunty Raven says no." Taylor resp
ALEJANDRO "That’s it, keep going Luna. You’re almost there." Doctor Linda encouraged. I ran my hand through my hair, fuck I hated this part. I looked down at the hospital bed where Kiara lay, a thin layer of sweat covering her forehead as she held my hand in a tight grip. Her legs propped up and she wore a loose button-down dress that reached mid-thigh. Her eyes were shut as she breathed steadily and heavily. Our pup was almost here, but it was giving Kiara a damn hard time. She had been in labour for the last seventy-two hours and I swear I was going to give this little one a good telling off for putting her through this shit. Then again, I’m the one who put a pup in her. "Is the baby here yet?" I heard Azura’s voice from the hallway. "What have I said about patience if you want to wait here? Come on let's go get something to drink, baby." Scarlett’s reply came. I know the walls were thick but even soundproof walls didn’t work on my hearing. Scarlett, Elijah and Azura had show
Three months later… ALEJANDRO The hum of conversation in the room full of men in suits holding glasses of wine only made me want to fucking leave. I pulled at my tie, wanting to fucking toss it aside. If it wasn’t for how important this conference was, I wouldn’t be here to begin with. Oh, and the fact that I called for it I looked over at Kiara, who was wearing all white, looking fucking fine as she talked to Delsanra, a hand resting on her baby bump. A bump that had grown over the last few months. She was glowing, the light that she always seemed to hold showed on her face, and that small smile that I loved so fucking much played on her lips as she talked. Her sandy brown hair was coiled up into an elegant bun on top of her head. Our pup… We had decided not to find out the gender this time, deciding on keeping it a surprise. I knew this was going to be the last, so I made sure I spent as much fucking time by her side as possible, enjoying these fleeting moments and treating her l
ELIJAH I pulled on some sweatpants before running a comb through my hair, the dusting of greys was even more prominent lately. I actually liked the look, it just made me look sexier and even Red liked it. Today had been like any other day in the Westwood mansion, actually, it had been extra hectic since we had a party tomorrow. I had just showered and had now decided to go find Scarlett. I could hear Raven trying to get the boys settled into their beds, Liam had just gotten back from a pack meeting and was in the kitchen making him and his mate some drinks. He had gone after his mom in that department, and although I wouldn’t really admit it, he was a pretty good baker just like Red and Kiara. We all kind of retreated to our bedrooms pretty early most days, the days were hectic with the kids and work but once they were all in bed we would get some alone time with our partners. There were the occasional two days each week where we would have some adult time and just spend it togethe
DELSANRA "Smile Mama Mari." I said giving her a hug. "I am smiling." She replied, giving me a small smile. Of everyone she had been the only one with mixed feelings about the outcome, she had been so prepared to meet Papa Raf it was as if it had been stolen from her. But she had kept busy, and I think it was really helping her. Both Rayhan and I had told her to talk to us when she felt down, and I planned to keep on top of it too. I would make sure she didn’t feel lonely and I had talked to her about calming sleeping spells for night-time as I know that was when she felt the loneliest. She had said she would have a think about it. Her job as the head warrior was something everyone was excited about. The Ahmar Qamar pack fighting style was one of the best and the fact that Mama Mari was the last remaining member who was trained in it was something that Rayhan said was something to think about. How she needed to pass it on, and although she had said that she would teach it to her gr
ALEJANDRO I looked over at Rayhan as we stood outside the entrance to the Sangue Pack, his hair was pulled into a bun and he had a frown on his face. "This is it." I said quietly. "Sometimes, admitting that we made a mistake takes a lot, for you to want to do this yourself, I'm proud of you, and I'm sure more than me, Rafael would be prouder." He nodded, as Kiara placed a hand on his arm. "We got this, and besides, we’re doing this together." She said, giving him a warm smile. "Don’t make me out as a good person, I only regret that others suffered, not for what I did to those individuals." He said, looking at the gates. Kiara nodded. "That is enough in itself." I replied. "Hm, does Marcel know we’re here?" Rayhan asked quietly. I nodded. "Yeah, someone should be here to escort us inside." I replied, pulling Kiara into my arms. A few days after my picnic date with Kiara, Rayhan had rang to ask that although Leo refused, if it was ok to visit the Sangue pack. He said he wanted
