Gamma Ashley "Yesss! I win again!" Kelly bounces to her feet doing her own little happy dance at beating us in monopoly again. "There's no way you can be this good bubble gum, you have to be cheating somehow," Liam whines. He literally whines like a 4-year-old and it has us all in stitches. He doesn't really care if he wins or loses but Kelly loves when he acts like he's grumpy when he does lose and It's now become their thing. It makes her smile every time and I love him for it. "Why do you always call me bubblegum?" She stops her dance and walks over to him while she blows a bubble out of her mouth with the strawberry gum that she's been chewing for the last half hour. Honestly, how the girl doesn't know the answer to that question I will never know. "Because you've always got bubble gum in your mouth silly." I watch the moment she realizes that it was a silly question to ask and I chuckle out a laugh when she throws her head back laughing. "Your too cute for your own good miss
Gamma Ashley 4 weeks earlier My dad's laying down on the old scruffy wooden floor, his forehead is covered in sweat, and he's panting as he tries to catch his breath. Every few seconds he moans and groans out in pain while I just sit here and watch him suffer. I know I need to free him of his misery but I can't, how do I kill my own dad even if it is what he needs? "It's ok son, you don't have to do this. Get back to kelly, I'll be fine here." Is he serious? Does he really think that I'll just leave him here on his own to die slow and painfully? Pfft, the guy is insane if he thinks that's happening. Why is this happening again? To lose my dad once was heartbreaking but to live through losing him twice is just plain cruel and It's something that I'm not sure that I'll ever get over. I'm so goddam angry at the moon goddess right now. Why is she doing this to me, to Kelly, to my dad? How can she let one of her children suffer like this? Angry tears swarm down my face and I harshly
Gamma Jack "JACK!" Cal's bellowing voice drags me back to reality. I haven't heard a word that he has said for goddess only knows how long because my mind has been on Hailey and Coby and how much I want to kill them. I'm sitting in his office with Ashley and Liam plus a few of our top warriors who have been out personally searching day and night for the pair of bastards. Despite our best efforts Coby hasn't been seen since he handed over Kelly to Hailey. Alpha Colton is also helping with the search for him and that bitch. I don't know why he did what he did nor do I care anymore because there is no reason as to why you would do that to a child but when we find him and we will, he will suffer for it nice... and... slowly. I also can't figure out how Matthew ended up there. He went to the safe room with Kelly but somehow ended up at the same place where she was being held, hostage. We've spoken to Kelly in the hope that she could give us an answer but she doesn't seem to remember muc
Gamma Ashley My mate is being a serious turn-on, I swear he's been teasing me for most of the day, he knows all the right things to do and say and he hasn't been holding back today. He currently has me pinned between him and the kitchen breakfast bar and my cock is already painfully hard. "You think I should punish you do you, darling?" His eyes are completely back showing me that he is just as turned on as me, maybe even more than me and I already feel like I could burst my loads right this very second. One thing I will say for Jack and me is that we have one incredible sex life. Neither of us is shy about what we want or what we will do, we can go from slow and passionate to hot and downright fucking hardcore in minutes and holy cow do I love it. Before Jack, I had only done the basics of sex but I had watched enough porn and read enough romance books to know of the stuff that is out there and I'd be lying if I said that it hadn't intrigued me. I'm not saying that I would have e
Gamma Jack I can feel my heart beat in my ears, my pulse has spiked and for the first time in a long time, I feel scared. There have only been two times in my life where I've felt scared, the day my parents died and the day I met my mate and had a brief second of thinking that I would lose him but now as I carry this little girl away from this hell hole I feel fear. Deep down I know that I will protect her, both I and Cal will protect Kelly with our lives but still, I feel scared, scared that somehow I'll let her down, that somehow I won't get her to safety. Why do I feel like this? I'm a Gamma, I'm strong, and I've never failed in protecting anyone that I've needed to against anyone including an Alpha more than once but here I am scared that I won't be able to protect a little girl. I take a deep breath and shake myself, I need to forget about these stupid thoughts and concentrate on what's important and that's getting Kelly to the van where Liam is waiting with the little girl t
Gamma Ashley I'm pulled from my sleep by horrible distraught sounds, I sit up trying to figure out what the hell the noise is while also trying to get myself half conscious when I suddenly reorganize the sound, It's my mate's voice and he sounds like he's being tortured. I get up on my knees next to him and my heart breaks once my eyes adjust and I can see his face clearly through the darkness of the night. He's still sleeping but his face is scrunched up like he's in pain and the noises that are coming from his throat are terrifying me. "Jack, Jack wake up baby..." He doesn't even murmur at my voice so I call him again only louder this time but still, nothing happens, he's still stuck in his nightmare and I need to wake him up and now. This is the first time I've seen him have a nightmare and I fucking hate it. "Jack wake up darling... JACK!" He makes a grunting noise then his whole body tenses up and suddenly he jumps up into a sitting position, his eyes are wild as he frantical
Gamma Jack I needed my mate, I needed him to make me forget that bloody nightmare and he did, of course, he did but in my haste of needing him I blocked everything else out to concentrate on him and I forgot about the dream for a while and In turn forgot about what had happened with Lacey in the dream. I know it was just a nightmare and they happen so there's properly nothing to worry about but still, I have to be sure. Since we found her we've been searching wide trying to discover where she came from and who her parents are but so far we haven't had any luck. Of course, we asked Lacey everything we could to get her help and get her home to her family but she's been struggling to remember anything. We assumed that it was due to the trauma of what happened in the same way as it has affected Kelly but after this dream, there's a niggling in my brain telling me that there could be more to this than we first realized. And on top of that, as we haven't been able to find her home or fam
Gamma Ashley The shock of what it appears that we have just learned is weighing heavy on both of us, of course, it weighs on Jack more but I've quickly fallen in love with Nora, hell the woman makes it hard not to and to think that she could be up to something bad breaks my heart. There may have only been a couple of signs and they may have been silent signs but still, they screamed loud enough for both Jack and me to hear them and there's no way the two of us saw the same things and yet are wrong. "Come on baby, let's get back to bed." My mate looks lost and I fucking hate it. He's always the strong one, always the one assuring me that things will be ok, and he's always the one to hold up both up when I'm crumbling but right now... well right now he's completely and utterly lost. But it's ok because everyone gets lost sometimes but he's not alone in dealing with this by himself, he has me, and now it's my turn to look after him and to hold us both up and that's exactly what I'm go
Gamma Ashley 11 months later... "One more push and baby's head will be out." Doc gently encourages Tori while she has a mother fucking death grip on my neck all while Jack's across the other side of the bed looking like he's getting his hand broken. She lets out a pain-filled cry as she pushes out the baby's head but instead of taking a break before pushing again she just carries on and before I know it the baby is fully out and wailing and if that ain't the best sound ever! "You have a healthy baby boy," Doc shouts out excitedly. Tori's beaming at his words but so are me and Jack. Jack walks around to my side and wraps his arms around my shoulders just as doc comes to stand in front of us and hands me the little bundle that's now wrapped in a blue blanket. "We have a son Jack." The words leave my mouth in a whisper as I stare down at our son in awe. He's absolutely perfect all 10 toes and 10 fingers of him and he looks just like Jack even down to his little nose. "We do darli
Gamma Jack 5 years later... "Happy birthday beautiful girl," Ashley whispers. "Happy birthday princess," I whisper. "Happy birthday girly girl" Cal whispers. "Happy birthday bubble bum" Liam whispers. Our words are met with a mile-long line of pack members as we set off balloons and watch them float away into the night sky while we wish Kelly a happy birthday. You'd think that after her being gone for 5 birthdays this would get easier but it doesn't. She's 13 years old today, a teenager and we miss her more and more every day. A lot of the pack members here still remember her but I find even the new members we have now including our Luna Brooke and Beta female Bethany seem to feel the sadness of everyone else and them taking the time to be here with us is much appreciated. When Hailey hadn't shown her face for over 2 years we were considering getting Kelly back with us but then like a fucking nightmare come true Hailey turned up here about 6 months ago looking for Kelly and
Gamma Jack These past 4 weeks have been calm and quiet and worrying. We've spent so much time lately on guard and in battles that as much as the quiet time is much welcomed and enjoyed I still can't completely rest. A part of me is waiting for something to happen but until then I'm trying my hardest to relax even if some days it feels impossible. It's been almost 4 weeks since Kelly left here with Joey and Jackie and not one person in the pack knows where they are, we choose not to know the name of the pack to give Kelly extra safety. It's been hard without her both Ashley and I are missing her so much that it's painful and I'd be lying if I said that we haven't shared some tears over her but we both know it's for the best right now and look forward to the day that we can get her back here with us where she belongs. It's been weeks since we last heard from Hailey but we all know that it won't last forever. She'll be back and we'll be ready. Edwina, Rosemary, Zack, Kat, Jane, and
Former Alpha Michael Things lately have been completely out of control and there was a point where I never thought it was going to end. My son is a fairly new Alpha but I never once doubted him even when he doubted himself. I know these past few weeks or maybe months, honestly, I've lost count of how long it's been going on, but the time that's passed while everything has been going on has been a hard time for our pack. Of course, our pack has had its bad times over the years, more than I wish to count or think about if I'm honest but still, we are a very lucky pack, considering how bad things could be we've always done our best to keep out of trouble and work with other packs rather than be enemies. I'd like to think that I was a fair Alpha and that I raised my son to be the same and every day that I watch how he runs the pack and how he treats all the members brings a jolt of pride to my heart. Since the day that he was born, I've made sure to tell him every single day how muc
Alpha Calvin Between everything that has happened and all the information that we have learned over the past few days, I feel like a truck has run over my head. Since the moment that my dad handed down the Alpha title to me, I've never had a moment of regret over taking it or a worry about how I would handle something but I'd be lying if I said that I was struggling right now. It's a lot to take in and I dont even know where to start. After everything that Coby told us we had him placed back in the cell until we decide what to do with him and everyone has gone on with their day while I try and clear through everything in my head and make the decisions that are needed. Once I said goodbye to everyone I decided to go out for a run with Colton in the hope that it would help clear my head but even handing over full control to him hasn't helped me and as I lay here at the side of the lake I growl out in frustration at being no closer to any of the decisions that I need to make. Sud
Gamma Ashley "Fuck!" Echos around the room as everyone says the word at the same time. "I didn't know you had a mate... I... Huh..." I'm at a loss for words and yet I find what he says easy to believe because that is exactly something that my bitch of a mother would do. "Who was your mate?" "I found him after you left Ash. He was called Kyle and he was a member of the north storm pack, I met him after Alpha Roland managed to convince his Alpha to assist in the search for you and your dad, he was a warrior for them and absolutely perfect." His eyes fill with tears as he talks and once he stops they quickly fall down his cheek. "Wait, you said was?" Jack's words are gentle as everyone else suddenly has the same realization. "He's dead, she killed him!" His voice starts rising and the look on his face is absolutely heartbreaking. "I found out after Kelly was taken in the forest that she has already killed him, in fact, she h
Gamma Ashley Finding out that not only do my uncle Joey and his mate Jackie know Edwina well but that warrior Zack and his mate Kat do too, in fact, their daughter Jane calls Edwina auntie Edwina and has done since she was little is just mind-blowing. Having the people that we know speak well of her is a massive help but I still dont know how I feel about her wiping my memory, for her to do that she will need full control of my body and it may only last for a few minutes but for a witch as strong as Edwina a few minutes is all she needs to do pretty much anything to me and the others. We have been sitting here talking through everything for the last 30 minutes but it's clear to me that Cal still doesn't know what to do and I'm almost grateful for it right now as I dont think I'm ready to hear his answer and I'm definitely not ready to see Edwina do anything to my mate. "Ok, I dont think there's any more for us to talk about right now. I need to talk to my pack members that are in
Alpha Calvin I swear right now life is one shit show after another, when the fuck will we get a break? "I'm sorry you want to do what? I look around the room and see my men looking just as shocked as me right now. "With your permission, I would like to wipe the memories of the attack on your men that way there is no chance that they will remember them and no chance of anyone getting any information out of them." "My men wouldn't just go spilling that kind of information not once I've spoken to them anyway." I'm slightly pissed that she would think that and it's not helping her case here. "Oh, Alpha Calvin I am not suggesting that, not in the slightest. What I mean to say is if someone was to find out a member of your pack knows about someone that they want to find... Well, let's just say that they could find a very creative way of getting the information out of your men and that's not what any of us want." "How do we know that we can trust you? I dont mean any offense to you Edwin
Gamma Ashley As we step inside the packhouse I feel myself getting nervous and I'm not even sure if I know why. I know I'm a little embarrassed about running off but not greatly and I know I'm nervous about the idea of letting Kelly go but still, I feel like I'm physically shaking and Jack must sense it as he takes my hand giving me a gentle squeeze. "I'm here with you darling no matter what." He gives me a swift kiss just as we reach Cal's door and step inside to find everyone in the same place as they were earlier. "You ok brother?" Liam asks the moment I step inside Cal's office and his worry for me is clear to see. "I'm ok, I'm sorry for running off," I speak to both Liam and Cal as I answer showing them both the respect they deserve as my Beta and Alpha. "Nothing to be sorry for," Liam says. "Your fine, dont worry," Cal says straight after and I must admit it does make me feel a little better to know that neither of them is mad at me. "Uncle Joey, auntie Jackie, I'm sorr
