Gamma Ashley I'm usually a pretty patient guy but this car ride is really testing me. Warrior John is hauing the SUV as fast as he can but still, it's not fast enough for me although I don't think I’d be happy with any amount of speed that we could take right now. "How are you doing darling?" My whole body is tense and worked up and I know that Jack can feel it. I give him a smile but I know that it doesn't reach my eyes despite my best effort. He unbuckles his seat belt before leaning over me and unbuckling mine, he swiftly grasps my hips and pulls me onto his lap so that my back is facing the window and my legs are to the side of him. After a little fight, Jack manages to wrap his seat belt around the two of us. I lean into him and rest my head on his chest then feel his chin come down and rest on top of my head. His hand comes up and starts to run gentle soothing circles onto my back while the tingles from our bond bounce around my body, the combination is heaven and has my body
Alpha Calvin"I'm fucking relieved that Ryder has finally managed to pin down Coby and I'm still hopeful that that twisted bitch Hailey will turn up but from the moment that we left the pack house I've had a sinking feeling in my stomach and that's never a good sign. While growing up and during training to become an Alpha one of the key things that my dad taught me was to always listen to my instinct and to be aware of my surroundings and fuck if that's all I'm doing right now. "What's up, brother?" Liam comes to walk beside me as we continue through the forest and towards the underground tunnel that my warriors found. "I don't know but I've got a shit feeling deep inside my gut," He narrows his eyes but quickly changes his whole attitude once what I have said actually sinks in. I may not have been Alpha for long nor him my Beta but we've been best friends since we were toddlers and we know each other inside out. We always know that when one of us says something like this that shit
Gamma AshleyOh, he's dead, he’s fucking dead and so is Coby and any other fucker that's in on this with them. I've had many times in my life where I've thought that I was at my most angry but the anger that I feel right now is so bad that I'm even starting to frighten myself. "Children... he’s got fucking children with him. There are around 10 of them that I can make out all in long nightgowns with some sort of bags placed over their heads. I can't see them clearly enough to guess their ages but they are all incredibly small leading me to believe that they are all younger than Kelly. He’s holding the hand of the one at the front and while they all hold hands he leads them toward the tunnel. "There's no excuse for this, they all die!" Liam growls out while everyone around us agrees with their own snarls and growls. "Abso-fucking-lutley!" Cal snarls causing the ground beneath us to slightly shake. "How much longer do we have to wait?" Jack whines out, he’s getting impainted and I'm
Gamma JackHe tries to sound calm and confident but he sounds more like a scared child just like he is. “I'm from Alpha Ashton's pack.” Bollocks! Ryder takes a step towards him but no one else moves a muscle, Ryder won't hurt him. The boy... Jake moves back a step but he's not quick enough to escape Ryder and soon finds himself in Ryder's grip and being pulled toward us. “Are you going to kill me?” His voice is small as Ryder brings him to stand just a foot or two in front of us. Cal looks pissed off by his question but ignores it, I can't even imagine a reason for us to kill a child ever... “Why are you here? Are you spying for Alpha Ashton?” Cal doesn't waste time asking him what we need to know. We need to be smart and quick here and unfortunately, we don't have the time to just hang around waiting until this boy feels relaxed enough to talk to us plus this could well be a trap so we don't want to be distracted for too long either. “No, I'm not spying for anyone!” His tone has q
Gamma Ashley Fuck! fuck, fuck, fuck, fucking fuck! Alpha Ashton now knows that there is someone out here. "Come out, come out, whoever you are." He sings out. "I know there's someone there." We all hold our breaths as he takes slow steps in circles while looking around the forest. He looks a little nervous but more than anything he looks like a cat about to catch himself a mouse. "Come out now and we'll talk." This time he sounds a little frustrated and I think that he's starting to get impatient. "Alpha let me go out. I wasn't there when you went to get Kelly so I doubt that he even knows me." Cole whispers to Cal and has everyone instantly on edge. "No, he will kill you the second you reach him. You're a good fighter Cole but he has Alpha strength and a lot of it." I can already tell by Cal's tone that he's not going to let Cole go out there and I have to agree. "No one goes out there alone," Cal tells Cole in his Alpha tone which causes Cole to submit and nod agreeing with Ca
Alpha Calvin I slowly walk out of the tree line with Alpha Ashton firmly in my sights, he's tall but not as tall as me nor is he as muscular as me and I may not have fought against him before but I've heard the stories, and I'm fully aware of his reputation as a strong Alpha and of how wolves tend to run from him rather than at him. Unfortunately for him, I'm not just any wolf and I don't back down easy, he doesn't frighten me, and he's going to find that out tonight. Those children are innocent and I won't stand by while he does the unthinkable to them, I will give my life to save them if I need to and I know that every member of my pack would say the same and is willing to fight right now. "Good evening Alpha Ashton." My voice booms in his direction and across the forest with more force than I originally intended, not that I give a fuck. He turns to face me and I watch a flicker of surprise and concern briefly wash over his face when he realizes who I am but he quickly masks it a
Beta Liam We keep low as we work our way toward the tunnel I have Ryder, Cole, Samson, Nick, and Jason with me plus two of our she-wolves Jessica and April plus Cal also had Larry and Zane follow us in their wolf form with several other members to help us get to the children and also to stop anyone else getting inside the tunnel once we are in there. We keep going until we reach the tree line to the side of the tunnel and I hold my hand up bringing everyone behind me to a stop. The wolves surrounding the tunnel are facing away from us but we need them to move, they are completely surrounding the tunnel, and there's no way we are getting in there while they are there, there are just too many of them. "What's the plan Beta, Liam?" Ryder slides beside me so he can whisper close to my ear. "We wait." He gives me a puzzled look while he looks around the forest. " Once they start fighting these pricks will have to leave the tunnel and we can get in." He smiles as he gives me an agreein
Gamma Jack No one wastes a second in running into the battle that is now well and truly underway. I quickly lose sight of my mate but I know that he's more than capable of looking after himself in fact, just from the little bit that I have seen in training alone I know that he's a fucking demon when he needs to be. I take out two wolves within the first few minutes of the battle starting and soon find myself toe to toe with Alpha Ashton's Gamma. I can't remember his name but I do know that he's a fucking asshat. He begins circling me as if he's intimidating me but it just amuses me to no end. He lets out a growl before lunching for me, unfortunately for him he's too slow and I saw the move coming before he had even thought about doing it. I step to my left and duck low resulting in him jumping right over me and crashing into the ground with a violent thud. I spin around and dive for his back before he has time to get up from the ground. I hock my claws into his shoulder blades caus
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
