Chapter One-
(Olivia POV)
It’s days like today that I truly hate being a werewolf. My name is Olivia Silvers. I am the 19 year old daughter of Alpha Oliver and Luna Alpha Ireland. I have had an amazing upbringing despite my parents' early stressful beginning but I have always felt loved and I have two great packs who have always treated me well. I had never wanted for anything and despite my gifts and my family's gifts I have had no reason to not trust those around me. My parents always cautioned me and my brother to be careful who we trusted. I guess I never learned because here I am hating all that I am because I trusted the wrong wolf.
“Mom please it hurts.”
“I know Bug but I am here and I am trying to help. Your dad and brother won’t let any unmated wolves in. Erik and Chris are out there as well.” She pulls me tighter to her chest. “Baby your fever is rising. I am going to make you a cold bath. My mother states apologetically tears in her eyes.
The second she leaves me the pain becomes unbearable. I wonder if he knew this would happen and what his reason was. I wonder if he feels my body calling out to him and how he deals with it. I try to stand to make my way to the bathroom but fall down having no strength to keep myself up. My whole body aches and feels like it is on fire. I feel liquid coming from my nose and ears as the edges of my vision become blurry, I wipe it away and see red.
“That sick son of a bitch.” These are the last words I hear from my mother before everything goes dark.
I wake up sometime later, the pain dramatically decreases and I feel like I only have a mild fever. I breathe a sigh of relief the heat must be almost over. I look around the room as I don’t feel my mother in the bed next to me. Near the bathroom I see my mother huddled in the corner. What surprises me is that my father has his arms protectively wrapped around her. “Mom?” I ask, taking a tentative step toward my mother.
The warning growl that leaves my fathers lips as his eyes matching mine glare at me. I gasp and take a step back sitting on the bed. His eyes soften instantly as he picks my mother up in his arms. “Sorry Princess, let me go lay your mother down.” With that my dad was out the door.
My brother entered the room soon after my father. “Livie it was harder this time. Liberty came out and was trying to get to him. Mom got hurt trying to calm you and heal you.”
“Why would she want to go to him? We aren’t his!” I watch as my brother takes a defensive stance. “I take a deep breath to calm myself. I direct my eyes toward the ground “Heat can’t be healed.”
I feel the bed dip next to me and then my brother places his hand on my forearm. “No heat cannot be healed but it appears the asshole thought that your heat was a good time to mate with someone else. You were screaming even passed out so loud that most of the pack house heard. You were clawing at yourself and mom was just trying to take the pain away.”
I didn’t even realize I was crying until I felt myself being engulfed in an embrace and felt the shirt becoming wet. I knew by the smell it was my father. “Daddy I am so sorry.” Then I felt another pair of arms wrap around me again. This scent was my brother. Both of the most important men in my life held me as I felt my world come undone again.
I feel my dad pull away slightly. He lifts my face so that my eyes meet his, “Listen baby girl, no one is mad at you and no one blames you for this at all. If I could kill that bastard without starting a war or hurting you I would.”
“Daddy how could I have let this happen I am so stupid to fall for his lies.” I sob.
My dad suddenly stands and pulls me with him holding me at arms length looking me in the eyes, “Listen here young lady this is the last time I will say this and hear your pity party. You let someone talk you into something awful should, you are no worse a person than I am for talking myself out of my mate once. Should I be punished every day for my stupidity in youth?” I Shake my head in response. “Thanks to your mom I agree so it is time to move on and move forward. Training is tomorrow at 5am.” With that he motions for my brother and he and Wilder exit my room closing the door.
I get up and walk to my bathroom pausing only to look in the bathroom mirror. I wince at the reflection. My cheeks moist from the tears, my eyes bloodshot and puffy and my curly light brown hair in a mess on my heads. I take another deep breath back away from the mirror, remove my clothes and turn on the shower letting the cold water wake me further until the water turns warm soothing my sore muscles.
Once I am dressed in some black leggings and an oversize plain grey t-shirt, my hair in a messy bun, I make my way down to the dining room. I get a few glances from other pack members that reside in the home while making my way to my seat. I will not divert my eyes or shy away any longer. I will continue to be the strong wolf I have become in the last year. I see my mom and Evelyn talking enthusiastically. “Mom?” I start wanting to apologize. I can see the tiredness in her eyes but when they lock on mine and the love in them tells me it is not necessary.
“Bug guess what? You know what nevermind Bradley is coming home next month.”
I feel like for the first time in a long time a genuine smile crosses my lips. Bradley is a little over a year younger than me and is one of my best friends. Well until he left to train with the hunters being half wolf and half hunter and me leaving to make the biggest mistake in my whole life. Despite all that I am happy to see him. “Aunt Evie, you and Erik must be so happy.”
“We are and Paxton is excited to have his brother back and of course you must be excited to have your best friend home.”
“I am even if I hadn’t talked to Bradley in a long time I feel like it will be like riding a bike.” I stomach flutters at the thought of Bradley however I am nervous he is the one person close to me that doesn’t know about my mark.
Christian POV
I moan out loud as I wake up. I feel limbs thrown over my body loosely. I groan as I look at Kim the flavor of the night. Goddess, what did I do? I remember feeling an uncontrollable urge to mate like someone was calling out to me. Olivia...Olivia must have been in heat again and I seeked out comfort from Kim. I look at her feeling disgusted and give her a hard shove making her fall from the bed in a thump. She gets up swearing under her breath and tries to come back on the bed.
“Leave!”
“But…”
“Leave now.” I roar shaking the windows. She scrambles out of the door leaving it open when my Beta Lex walks to the doorway.
“Kim huh?”
“She’s an okay Fuck good in a pinch down for everything.” I respond blandly.
“Well hurry up your uncle is in your office waiting on you.”
I hurry up and take a quick shower and dress in a basic black t-shirt and dark blue jeans not bothering to style my black hair. I walk briskly out of my room and toward the first floor to my office. I burst in the door and stop dead in my tracks. I walk in and I see Kim on her knees in front of her my uncle his dick in her mouth“Uncle is this necessary now” I state bored walking toward my desk sitting in my chair.
He doesn’t respond, he pulls his dick out of her mouth and grabs her up and walks her over to my desk bending her over so her top half is laying flat on my desk. He flips her skirt up. “No panties I like it. Why is your lil pussy so swollen? Did your Alpha fuck you last night my lil slut?” And he spit on his hand rubbed it on her pussy and rammed into her.
“Yes Alpha fucked me good.”
“Did he cum in this loose pussy?”
“No he fucked me over and over but wouldn’t give me his seed inside me.”
“Uncle what is the meaning of this.” I snapped my irritation growing.
He again didn’t stop just thrusting into her faster. Her moans are growing louder and with a loud grunt he thrust one more time before stilling. “Now you're full of seed. Get out.” He pulled out of her and grabbed her by the arm throwing her toward the door before he adjusts his pants and sat down opposite me.
“Now tell me, nephew why you were so desperate last night to have fucked a used up loose whore like Kim with so many virgins in the pack? I mean I sent her but what she told me before you got here was how frantic you were. Tell me, are you hiding something? Have you marked someone?”
“I was horny it’s been a while since I had someone. There is not anything I am hiding and of course I have not marked anyone. I am not that stupid uncle. We have a plan I have been preparing for this my whole life. You have raised me so I could take revenge on those that have ruined our lives and soon...soon we will.
Chapter Two (Olivia POV) I am startled awake by a loud pounding on my door. “Olivia time to get up from your nap, meet me on the back porch in 10 minutes.” “Yes mother.” I shout back so much for a relaxing day. I get up off my bed, strip down to my bra and panties and grab some clothes from my closet. Before I get dressed I stand in front of the closet mirror and survey the damage from this morning's sparring. My cut on my lip is healing so it's barely swollen, a few bruises on my ribs and the worst of it is a bite mark but that should be gone by dinner time. I throw on a pair of shorts and a tank top pile my hair in a bun and make my wak to the back porch. I step out the back door and see my mom sitting in the porch swing with an intense look on her face. “What’s up mom you wanted to s
Chapter Three(Olivia POV)I woke up early this morning even though I have hardly slept. Today is the day my best friend Bradley returns, the pack tournament is today and the visiting pack the Scarlet Moon Pack arrives. I lay on my bed for a bit thinking about the last couple of weeks and I can’t help the smile that graces my lips. Xavier and I have been going on nightly runs and getting to know each other. He confided in me that he has had a crush on me ever since he arrived at the pack and he tried to kiss me. I stopped him and told him it wasn’t right as he had a mate out there. He explained that he had actually met her the day he turned 18. She was a rogue and she rejected him because he refused to go rogue and she refused to try to join the pack. After he explained he kissed me and I allowed it for a minute before reality da
Chapter Four- (Olivia POV) I take a second and mask my emotion before I turn around and face him the Devil himself. I want to laugh at his stunned face but I keep my composure. I could easily tell my father that the Asshole that is standing in front of us is the same Asshole that as little as 2 hours ago has been inflicting pain on me. I choke the words down despite my feelings. Every pack deserves a chance and despite this Alpha his pack has done nothing to me. I square my shoulders and look him straight in the eyes “Alpha Christian nice to meet you.” I extend my hand out for him to shake. He takes my hand and I will myself to not react to the sparks that I might feel. They weren’t sparks at all; it was like a bomb going off in my hand. I managed to remain expressionless and look at his eyes but his flickered down to our joined hands. I quickl
Chapter Five (Xavier POV) I am doing my duty wooing Olivia’s family. I pull out a chair for her grandmother Lilly to sit down. ‘’What a dear you are Xavier. Where is my beautiful granddaughter anyway? I want to surprise her with the fact that I am here.” “She hasn’t joined us yet Luna Lilly. I am sure she will be down shortly and very surprised to see you. She tells me you haven’t visited in months.” She lets out a light chuckle. “I see she has been more complaining than telling.” She laughs again “You know she has spoken of you several times to me over the phone. You seem to have gained our princesses heart already. Though I shouldn’t be surprised you gained your place in the heart of the pack members not long after you arrived.”
Chapter Six (Chistian POV) I am sitting on my bed getting ready for the rest of my day reflecting on breakfast. Breakfast was odd the Alpha and Luna weren’t present, the pack members all seemed so crestfallen. I asked one of the she-wolves eyeing me if the Alpha and Luna usually left their guests alone. She explained they were in a family meeting this morning and rotated between eating at the packhouses. She stated that usually the jewel of the pack was at breakfast but after last night she was probably sleeping in. “Jewel of the Pack?” “Olivia of course she is everything that embodies a real she-wolf she helps guide us. Not just the She-wolves but all werewolves. She treats us all as equals and for that she shines brighter than anyone.
Chapter Seven(Olivia POV)I don’t know what he hoped to see when he looked at me but I have my emotions under control and he wasn’t going to see it. A rush of regret slices through my chest. Shit Xavier what did I just do, I hope I can explain it to him. I won’t be in a relationship built with lies and secrets. It would destroy us before we even truly get to begin. As if sensing my need for him I see him crossing the backyard with a blanket in his hands. I shift back from my wolf never breaking stride. As I make it to him he engulfs me in his arms and wraps the blanket around me from behind. A sob escapes my lip before I can stop it and the feeling of regret that slices through me once again.“You know when I pictured you naked pressed against me I never imagined
Chapter Eight (Bradley POV) I look over this Alpha Christian as he walks up to the bowling alley with his arms draped around that she-wolf. It really takes everything in me to not tear that asshole apart. He is lucky I didn’t know about him sooner or what he did to my best friend. I am the only one that she has told who he really is and the story of what happened. I may be younger than Olivia and she may not possess as many powers as her mother but I was born to be her protector. I am also half hunter so naturally I have an added threat I am tougher to hurt or kill. Olivia can’t hide her emotions from me. I know where else they show other than her eyes, she shows so much happiness with Xavier but I see the small twinge of pain in her expression when the Alpha Douche Bag walks up with were-bitch in his arms.
Chapter Nine (Christian POV) It’s been about a month since we have been here. The first two weeks they had me lead training to see what our techniques were. I held some of them back not wanting to give our secrets away but still making it challenging. To my surprise my mate kept up showing little to no strain. Then when she took over training it was obvious nothing was held back. The training was challenging to say the least. I was surprised that the Alpha’s or other ranking wolves did not lead the training. Today I am supposed to have a meeting with Alpha Oliver and Ireland to discuss methods to combine both training techniques to one that may be effective for both packs. I honestly don’t give a fuck about anything being effective for the other pack. I have spent my days with Alpha Oliver and to be honest they hav
Being a Silver is both a blessing and a curse. We are blessed with gifts by the Moon Goddess and cursed with mates that don’t see our worth and cause us so much pain before eventually accepting us. Mates that though in the long run complete us, have also caused the loss of so many of my loved ones. I was raised to cherish my mate when I found them but I refuse to lose anymore of the people that I love. I pray that I never find them, being the Goddesses Alpha I won’t feel the bond fully until I accept it. That again leaves me both blessed and cursed. When Elena bumped into me almost a year ago about a month after my 18th birthday and hesitantly stated she believed I was her second chance mate I couldn’t have been more relieved. I met Elena at Alpha training, we became close friends and I had planned to actually make her my Beta. She is the gamma’s daughter of the pack training was in a
Chapter Sixty Six (Olivia POV) I feel like we have been at the pack hospital for hours when it probably has only just been minutes. Something is wrong. It is too soon for the pup to come. I have been feeling uncomfortable all day but the pain is too much. I don’t know which is worse, this pain or the fear that I am feeling. I can’t find the words to even speak, and the fear in Christian’s eyes has my heart clenching. They show us to a room and the doctors and nurses are running around hooking me up to machines and trying to get me changed into a hospital gown. I turn and look toward Christian “I..I’m sorry no matter what happens tell our pup I loved them and loved you.” The movement in the room stops, everything goes quiet as they
Chapter Sixty Five (Chrisitan POV) The meeting with the packs went well. Most of the Dark Skies Pack decided to join Scarlet Moon and those that decided not was for reasons of having family and friends nearby. I couldn’t help but chuckle at how easy the meeting went as Olivia had been so nervous. The Scarlet Moon pack was open to the idea as long as it meant they got their rightful Luna. Olivia actually teared up by how excited my pack was to welcome her and her pack to ours. I can’t lie I was filled with pride at the lack of contesting that came from my pack which was actually zero. Everyone was excited. I had been a little worried about how Olivia would feel about Kathy and some of other she wolves in the pack staying but she simply shrugged it off and said that it was time to move on.
Chapter Sixty-Four(Olivia POV)“Are you sure you can’t come home sooner?”“Bug, we agreed I would extend my training. I know you're anxious to be with Christian full time and I promise I should be home by the time the baby is born.”“That’s in just over a month Wilder.”“I know and I can’t wait to meet my new niece or nephew. I promise it will be worth the wait.”“You keep saying that but I miss my brother.”“You are just eager to turn over the pack. Have you talked to Christian about combining the two packs?”
Chapter Sixty Three(Christian POV)We have moved from outside to my living room in the packhouse. Castor and Franklin sitting down close to each other. My parents sat down on the chairs leaving only the loveseat for myself and Olivia.“What changed your mind?” Castor asks. “Not that I’m not happy I am just curious.”“Honestly several things but mostly it was Christian.”“Christian?” The question leaves Olivia’s mouth in just over a whisper.“Yea, I honestly did not realize I would be mated to a male. I mean I dated females in high school.” A low growl escapes Castor. “Calm do
Chapter Sixty-Two (Castor POV) We move toward our destination in quiet as I let my mind wander to Jensen trying to not think of what is about to come. Jensen was my first mate, my first love, my first chance of happiness. Jensen had dated women all through high school. I turned 18 years old just two months before him and was sure he was going to reject me because I was a male. It was what I thought was going to be the hardest 2 months of my life but I was sure wrong. Jensen was a strong warrior and on the high school football team and dated cheerleaders. Then on graduation day he looked amazing with his sandy blond hair pulled back in a bun with his sides shaved, and as he walked to his seat after getting his diploma his brown eyes turned to mine as he sniffed the air. There wa
Chapter Sixty One(Olivia POV)It has been a long journey but I am glad to officially be home. I am approaching the boundary line at the long dirt road when I hear a growl coming from nearby.“Growl all you want I told you she is not here like I have told you everyday for a week.”“Talk to me like that again and I will shred you to pieces.”I pick up my pace and that is when Christian’s back comes into view. He is standing in front of his truck with his fist clench. “Harm Castor and I will end you and my alliance with your pack in a heartbeat.”He turns around with a look of disbelief, “End me?”
Chapter Sixty (Olivia POV) I just swing my feet off the bed when Bradley walks into the room. My mind was racing with the news the doctor gave me and when Liberty confirmed we were indeed pregnant there was only one place I knew I needed to be. “What are you doing Livie?” “Is he here?” “Is who here?” I see that he is not looking at me. “I heard him, Bradley but I also saw him return before I lost consciousness. Where is Christian I need to tell him something.” “About the pup? He already knows. The doctor told us by accident when he gave us the update.” His tone is both caring and hard.
Chapter Fifty Nine (Olivia POV) ‘Liberty are you with me?’ ‘I’m with you but I am worried.’ ‘We are always worried when this time comes.’ ‘This is different, we can't shift this time.’ ‘Why Liberty? I feel like you have left me this time unable to shift to let you free. I know you are angry about what happened after we arrived.’ ‘It is not that. I have not left you.’ ‘What is it then?’ I am met by nothing but silence. I again feel alone as I get myself ready for the ceremony. I slip on my black dress the co
