Mj’s body snuggled further into the center of her deliriously peaceful sleep, but the alarmingly stiff appendage prodding her leg caused the sleepy Omega to turn her head to find Moxie’s still snoozing face tucked into the back of her neck with his hips lined up tightly with hers. Trying to alleviate the growing embarrassment, Mj tried to wiggle away but as Moxie’s arm flopped over the top of Mj’s body his fingers made contact with Jay’s now bare chest and the golden blonde wolf hummed in contentment. Mj tried to figure out a way to get out from between her slumbering brothers without waking them, but the closer Moxie pulled her to him the more she wiggled. Mj’s heart began to thump harder against her chest and as the heat started from her toes, the young woman’s body began to flail like a fish out of water. Mj’s knee landed in the center of Jay’s chest and her elbow caught Moxie under the ribs, as
Our Swamp Alpha seems to have a serious infatuation with Mj, and it seems the other wolves are either playing some serious head games or Dante's absence might have paved the way for a new wolf in our assassin's life?

Lila stretched her overly tired back and hummed in satisfaction as she laid down on the top of her freshly made bed, taking a deep breath the exhausted Beta settled in to enjoy her very precious, rare silent moment when her phone began to cry like an angry child in her pocket. Groaning and fishing the small device from her pants, Lila worried her eyebrows together when Jay’s name popped up on the screen. The Beta took a deep breath before answering, “Jay, good to hear from you,” she said in a calm tone and smiled when the hunter laughed nervously, “Ed made it home safe, but I have a few questions about my truck,” she continued and Jay began to stutter, “well you see Beta, it umm, well, there was this uhh--.” Lila started to laugh low in her throat, “don’t worry yourself too much about it Jay, Ed explained most of what happened and as long as you Moxie and Mj pay for repairs or replacement you won't be punished by the Alpha or myself any further, ok?”
As the two hunters approached the curve of the building, we met them with four smiling faces. Two male and two female omegas flanked the pair and the moment one female reached out to touch Jay’s cheek Moxie began to snarl and growl. Jay stepped back, out of reach, but before he could console his rumbling companion the sound of someone clapping furiously caught their attention, “name’s Maggie boys,” the woman stopped and as she laid eyes on Moxie, her mouth fell open and she shrieked before jumping into the irritated looking hunter's arms. “Moxie you scrawny little lightnin bug,” Maggie squealed as Moxie peeled the overexcited woman from his torso, “it’s good to see you too Maggie,” he grumbled, and the older woman chuckled under her breath as she stepped backward and glanced between the two young wolves standing in front of her, “who’s the hottie,” she asked as she jerked her chin in Jay’s direction.
Azreal pinched his nose between his fingers as he called out to his assassin for the third time, “Mj!” his voice boomed through the phone, and he finally heard the sound of her voice, “hu? I’m sorry Alpha can you, can you repeat that?” she asked in a far off tone and Azreal sighed heavily, “I will ask Honey what she knows and maybe send her back into the club to find out what she can but I don't think it's necessary to interview her for that,” Azreal paused as he watched the woman in question laugh and talk with his oldest daughter, “she and Brie seem to be getting closer every day.” The Alpha’s statement rendered his hunter speechless again, and he chortled, “still with us Mj,” he asked, and she laughed, “yes Alpha, I was just curious how that worked itself into fruition,” and Azreal answered with a hearty laugh, “Well I have this wayward wolf in my pack, real pain in my ass,” he laughed, “she taught me its more important to be honest with my childre
Mj handed Moxie his phone and began to rub her temples as Moxie eyed his sister with amusement, “good news from home?” he asked through a chuckle and Mj only rolled her eyes, “The Alpha agrees it would be best to send Honey into the club for information, but there is no telling how long that might take or if she will even be able to get us anything useful, so I think we need to keep digging,” Mj shook her head and winced. Moxie reached for her arm and she jerked away with a snarl, “I’m fine Mox, it’s just a headache,” Mj snapped and both Jay and Moxie shot one another a concerned look as Mj continued, “If your brother was in the business of buying and selling flesh then he had to be in with some pretty questionable characters… clients.” As Mj spoke, she watched her brothers carefully, they were standing in a clearing just outside the hustle bustl
It didn’t take Mj long to track down her brothers. The sound of shouting led her to them faster than tracking their scent. As she breached the clearing, both men were shoving one another with enough veracity, Mj could hear the thud of skin to skin contact. She kept her eyes cast as high as possible as Moxie was now human and naked, but she couldn’t keep from laughing a little as she attempted to clear her throat and let them know they had an audience. Jay spun around with a snarl as Moxie just crossed his arms and leaned on one hip. Mj shook her head as Jay’s posture relaxed, and he pulled his fingers through his hair. “do you ever have clothes on?” she asked, shaking her skull and Moxie just shrugged, “covered in ink little sister, don't need 'em,” Mj cocked an eyebrow as she looked from one hunter to the other. “You have fun
Mj wasn't sure how long she followed Arzon trying to play his stupid game of keep up. He attempted to lose her in the treeline above, but she followed him easily and actually took note as to how sloppy his movements were compared to Azreal, that thought earned her an amused chortle from Theron and Mj almost ran straight into a tree as the emotional response became slightly distracting for her. As she gathered herself, Mj ducked behind an overgrown bush while Arzon slipped from the canopy and started running on all fours through the sludge at the edge of the water. Mj moved through the overgrowth following him when she saw a cluster of fallen trees covered in layers of moss and decaying vegetation. Climbing to the top to get a better vantage point, Mj took her eyes off the Alpha and as she scanned the coast of the swamp, all traces of man or beast had disappeared. Thero
Mj licked her teeth behind her closed mouth as Arzon led them in a half circle around the outskirts of some newer looking homes and as she was about to ask him why the hell they were casing houses, he stopped at the open backyard of one dwelling in particular and crouched behind a large cluster of dense foliage. Mj opened her mouth again to ask Arzon what the point of this was when she noticed he seemed transfixed by something inside the house and as she let her gaze wander inside, the occupants looked happy as they moved around their home. A blonde woman in a sumptuous sweater was setting a dinner table for herself and two others. As the woman rounded the table, Mj watched her reach down and scoop a small bouncing baby off the floor before placing the chubby little thing in a safety chair and taking her place beside it. A rath
In the weeks and months that followed Dante and Mj set to work building a pack their wayward people could call home. Some chose to leave, Mj agreed and almost insisted that they all stay in her building in Lowder until they figured out where they wanted to be. She assured Dante this was the best course of action as it kept them safe while they learned about the world and kept the Bijou pack safe, as the Alpha’s could easily keep an eye on anyone wishing to leave. Mj and Lila spoke on the phone almost daily, and the Quicksilver Alpha had even gotten her techno - impaired friend to do video calls, so they could truly visit with one another. In that time, the two women had exchanged troubling tales of walkers that continued to plague the outskirts of Bijou territory, while the Quicksilver pack was having its own trouble training hunters and tracking down the other Triad testing facilities. The two Alpha’s started to become somewhat legendary as they paved the way for a new way. Every wol
Mj looked at the phone in her hand and then at her mate, “I think she hung up on me,” she said and Dante laughed as he grabbed the small square device from her hand and tossed it over his head, “good, now I get you all to myself, yummy” he growled before wrapping his arms around her and burying his face into the center of her chest and inhaling. Mj cupped his face, smashing it between her breasts, “we have time for this later Alpha, we have a pack to rebuild and a family to prepare for,” she said and Dante looked up into her eyes with an excitement she had never seen as he placed the palm of his hand over her stomach, “are you,” he asked, and she let a laugh blast from her chest, “hell no, number one, it’s way too early to know… I think, and two I was actually talking about Moxie and the brood of babies he and Jay now have,” Mj finished and Dante looked at her, first, slightly disappointed and then confused, “kitten,” the Alpha cocked his head, “how the fuck,” he began and Mj laughed
Azreal led Lila by the hand toward the Alpha’s private office, and although she knew they had to make this call now, it did not stop her from dragging her feet all the way to the desk. Azreal smirked at the new furniture arrangement before pulling the large ornate armchair out from the desk, “your seat my lady,” he rumbled, and although she suddenly wanted nothing more than to rip his clothes off and let him have his way with her right there on the desk, she was now the acting Alpha and unfortunately that was a fantasy she would have to put on hold. Lila sat back in the chair while Azreal pushed her up to the desk and as she reached for the phone, Azreal put both of his hands to work on her shoulders. Lila groaned in pleasure as she lifted the phone. “What do I tell her?” she asked, and Azreal kissed the side of her head as he continued messaging her shoulders and neck. “You are the Alpha my love, what do you think you should tell her,” he answered and Lila made a small, unpleasant
The sound of hushed voices woke Azreal with a start as he realized his youngest children were no longer cradled between his arms as they had been when he fell asleep. Sitting up, he exhaled when Lila and Beth stood in the kitchen, each with one small bundle wrapped in their arms. Azreal stood up, stretching his arms, before he approached the women in the kitchen. “Alpha,” Beth said respectfully and bowed her head. Azreal glanced at Lila and smirked, “Beth… I am no longer an Alpha, just call me Azreal,” he mused and watched as the corners of her mouth twitched up just slightly as Briella and Matty made their way back into the suite, followed by Aliza and Adler.“Momma can we take the babies outside to play,” Aliza asked as she twirled around in her canary yellow dress and as Lila inhaled to answer, Azreal bent down to address his youngest daughter, “Lizzie sweetie, the boys are very young and they are vulnerable, it's not safe for them to be without me or your mother,” he explained and
After making it into their suite and getting the muddy youngsters clean, Lila waited until they were occupied with other activities before she approached Azreal, “we need to talk Alpha, alone,” she said softly and Azreal looked at her with a genuine but soft concern. Azreal stood, reluctantly leaving the side of his sleeping infant boys, and approached his mate. “You seem tired my love, would you like a bath?” he asked her with a wry smile and Lila grinned at him warmly, “Azz I would love nothing more than to take a bath with you, but I think you should hear me out first, you may not want to be in the same room with me let alone a bathtub,” she warned and Azreal’s eyebrow arched so high it almost disappeared in his dark hairline, “my greatest love, my Beta, my mate, and the mother of my legacy, there is nothing on this planet or any other that would make me not want to be naked with you,” he said with a heated look and Lila sighed. “Azreal I mean it. I already spoke with the hunters a
Lila exhaled again as she dismissed the hunters and followed them out of the Alpha’s private office. Mara turned to her and offered a warm smile, “for what it’s worth, I think what you are doing is incredibly brave, for what it's worth,” she tried and Lila offered her an appreciative smile, “thank you Mara, I really needed to hear that, sometimes I just don't know what the right decision is,” Lila shook her head, fighting back the tears threatening to fall from her face, “especially right now,” she added and Mara offered the Beta a firm and warm hug, “don’t worry Lila this pack loves you almost as much as the Alpha does, they will stand behind you the way we are, because even we can see the change in him,” she finished before Tanner turned to find his mate lagging behind with their Beta. As he approached Lila tucked her head slightly and Tanner cleared his throat, “Be- uh, Lila, when things have settled here I would very much like to take a trip up to see the new Bijou Alpha and Beta
Moxie watched Azreal disappear with his children, and as hard as the faithful hunter tried, he could not keep the hateful poison from his heart. Thoughts of sadness and melancholy swirled around his mind as the swamp wolf stood by waiting for direction. “Why should Azreal be the only one to enjoy the wholeness of his family,” Moxie thought to himself and, almost as if his Beta could hear his thoughts, Lila approached him and held out her arms.Moxie looked at her suspiciously and she only smiled at him in kind, “I miss him too, but not more than you, do you need-,” she began, and before the Beta could finish, Moxie landed against her chest, his arms wrapped around her waist like a small child as his back shuddered with every silent tear he shed. Sam, Tanner, and Ace all stood by looking between one another in confusion and a growing sense of worry, “his sadness consumes him,” Briella murmured from behind them and the trio all turned to the young Alpha for direction, but she only tur
Azreal tried to settle into the uncomfortable silence that had engulfed their ride home since Lila watched Jay chase the S.U.V. Moxie was in, howling a forlorn tale as the shifted hunter galloped furiously alongside his departing mate. The sound of Jay’s whaling howl finally faded into silence and as Azreal looked to his mate, she tightly folded her arms around her chest and sat with her back as rigid and unforgiving as a steep mountain cliff, “I won’t speak to you,” she snapped and Azreal sat back into his seat slightly in shock, “why,” he asked, genuinely curious and Lila simply shook her head as tears welled in her eyes. Azreal threw his hand into the air before letting it fall onto his thigh, making a loud smacking sound, “what would you have had me do Lila,” he asked in a frustrated but soft tone and the Quicksilver Beta snapped her head in his direction with a look of malice seated deep into her eyes, “did you hear his heart break Azreal, how could you,” she hissed and Azreal l
Mj waited with her heart pounding in her chest for the crowd to make their decision, and although she could tell quite a few of them were not pleased with some of the things that were happening, they were also not leaving, so she took several deep breaths and placed herself calmly in the seat at the center of the podium. Lou and Dante followed, although Dante moved his arm to caress the side of her fingers, trying his best to show her that he was there to support her through the tough decisions they now had to make. “Bring the first one forward,” Mj spoke with a hint of the wolf beneath her voice, and Dante sat next to her with pride swelling in his chest to such a vast degree he thought he might pop. As the first Nerezza guard was shoved forward and slammed to his knees, Mj peered over the podium at him before she looked out over the crowd, “state the nature of his crimes,” she demanded with the confidence of an Alpha, and with little hesitation the other pack members began rattling
