Kit’s POV A few days had passed, and I felt like I was never going to be finished with all the paperwork on my father’s estate, let alone dealing with my father’s physical property. I wanted to make sure everything was legally done, before I even touched a single item at the estate to pack up, and in all honesty, I had no clue what to even do with it afterwards. The house was now empty, as there was no need for my father’s servants anymore, other than the grounds keeper, who said he would be by to take care of the lawn when needed. Ms. Caroline of course stopped in daily to check up on me, and I knew it was because she felt like I was in need of her, and to be honest, it was nice having someone to talk to. Damian of course was more than happy to see her, as she brought him not only cookies, but she also began to bring her grandson to visit with her, giving Damian someone to play with. As we sat outside on the back patio, watching the boy
Kit’s POV “What are you doing here?” came from my lips before I could stop it, as I couldn’t believe that he was here, especially after he knew how awkward I felt at the funeral, meeting his Luna. “I just stopped by to see if you needed any help dealing with your father’s estate. I know that the paperwork can be a bit overwhelming, and I thought I would see if you would like some of my expertise, since paperwork seems to be my thing now days.” Dom says to me as if he wasn’t taken off guard by my rudeness. To tell the truth it would be nice having someone that knows what they are reading, instead of me having to look up every other word to know what the sentence is referencing to. But I knew that I couldn’t accept his help, because I couldn’t allow myself to be around him for that amount of time. “Thank you for your offer, but I got it under control.” I told him, as I remained standing in the doorway not allowing him to co
Kit’s POVAs I peered into the room, I stood there for a moment watching him now behind my father’s desk, just as I used to watch my father from afar, working long hours behind it. It was sad to think about packing up this room that was filled with all my father’s personal possessions he held dear to him, but I knew eventually that it had to be done.Seeing Dom sitting there now instead of my father, resurfaced what he had done for my father just a few days ago. In the end, Dom did the honorable thing by my father, or at least he was trying to make up for what he knew he had done wrong.“Are you going to stand there watching me, or are you going to bring me those cookies?” Dom asked as he looks up from the paperwork in front of him, giving me a smirk.My cheeks slightly redden as Dom busted me staring at him, but it wasn’t what he was thinking at all. Moving towards my father’s desk, I say to him, “Sorry, seeing you in here at my father’s desk brought back old memories of my father, a
Kit’s POV With hundreds of papers scattered from one end of my father’s study to the other, and on our second pot of coffee, we had finally pieced it all together what was legally happening, but we still didn’t know why my sister’s mate needed my father’s estate and his wealth, since his company wasn’t showing a loss in Dom’s data base. It was obvious that he was trying to hide something, but the question was what. Ms. Caroline had said that he was in trouble with the wrong people, and I had to wonder if this was something personal, he had going on the side from his business. I knew what Ms. Caroline told me was just gossip that she had heard from other pack members, but there had to be some truth to it. The problem was to find out who these people were, because even though my sister had done my father wrong, I was still worried about her and her children’s lives being in harm’s way. “None of this makes sense why he would need your fathe
Kit’s POV Dom’s eyes remained gazing down at me, as if he was in an internal battle with himself to do the right thing too, which we both knew was to walk away at this moment before anything happened between the two of us, at least that was what I was trying to convince my own self of. But his eyes now full of lust and desire for me, were like a beaconing call to the bond I still felt towards him, egging me to explore what could have been with him. Dom slowly leaned down towards me, and my heart began to beat out of my chest, with the thought of him kissing me. My breath then hitched as he neared me, and I closed my eyes waiting for his lips to graze acrost my own, but they never came.Instead, I felt his warm breath against the crook of my neck, sending shivers throughout my entire body, before his warm breath traveled up my neck and to my ear, where he whispered to me, “Your scent is even more intoxicating to me than it was before. Something has chang
Dom’s POV My phone was vibrating in my pocket as I stripped my pants off, but I didn’t care, because all that mattered at this moment was being with Kit, whether it was just for one night. Now that she was allowing herself to show me her true desire still for me, I had to have this moment in time with her. It had been a brutal seven years without her in my life, and I needed to feel the way she made me feel even if it was just for this one last time. My heart had been cold since the day that I walked away from her at the cabin, but once my eyes laid on her the other day, I felt it begin to beat once again, making me long to be with her. Now seeing her laid out on her bed in front of me like my last supper, I knew that I couldn’t walk away without devouring her and filling myself with the love we shared for each other. All my efforts of forcing Kit to come back home, I now knew were wrong on my behalf, because I knew in my heart that I co
Kit’s POV A gasp slipped from my lips, as Dom’s body and my own became one, and my soul felt like it was whole once again. Seven years of being without his love came crashing back to me with a fury, and my emotions of being with him like this now overwhelmed me, as time began to feel like it was standing still, giving us this moment in time together. Dom stilled within me as his eyes gazed down at me, while he gave my body time to adjust to his invasion of it. But as he stared down at me, I could see something different than just lust and desire in his eyes, and it was the love that I knew he still had for me, a love that would never be able to bloom.It was killing me seeing this in his eyes, because it was everything that I had dreamt of seeing from him once again, but I knew he had only promised me this one night, and that was all that I could give him too. My heart felt heavy at that moment, knowing that our love would never be, but we had right no
Kit’s POV The sound of the doorbell ringing awoke me, after I had finally fallen asleep in the early hours of the morning. At first, I pulled a pillow over my head thinking that someone else could get it, but then I remembered that I was the only one now here. Grabbing my robe, I quickly slipped it on, before I headed downstairs to see who was continuously ringing it. My biggest mistake was answering the door without looking to see who it was. As I opened the door, the men on the other side pushed the door open with force, making me step back quickly, as I stared at two huge men making there way into my father’s home. “What do you want?” I asked them, pulling my robe tighter around my body, not wanting to expose any of my flesh to them. The bigger of the two men chuckled before he said, “You made a grave mistake messing with our boss, and we were sent here to send you a message to back off.” “I think you h
Kit’s POVSeven years later… “Damian, grab your brother, and your sister and get in here. We have to leave now, if we are going to make it.” I yelled out the backdoor, as I was now in a panic that we were going to miss the ceremony. Dom was making sure that all our luggage made it to the SUV, as I rounded up our children to head to Mystic Shadow. Ms. Caroline at that moment moved from the kitchen with a basket in her arms, and I knew from the smell coming from it, she had baked a fresh batch of her famous cookies for the road trip there. It didn’t take much convincing on my behalf to get Ms. Caroline to come and live with us at our new estate. She was treated more as family then she was as hired help, and she had a cottage on our estate to call home, when she needed her own space. “You heard your mother, lets get a move on it.” She yelled out the backdoor, reinforcing what I had already said, and I gave her a smile knowing
Kit’s POVFor a moment, I wanted to believe that I was seeing what my mind wanted me to see, but I knew it couldn’t be him, because we had buried his body, the day after the war was won against Red Moon. But there standing at the bottom of the grand stairs stood a man, with the same eyes that Dom had, staring back at me. It was as if I was witnessing a frozen moment in time from the night of the ball, and everything around me now wasn’t real. My sister’s hand that I was once holding for support, slowly evaporated from my own grasp, like it was never there in the first place. My head at that moment began to spin, as if time was rewinding, and everything that had happened had all been a dream. If this was true, I knew if I looked to my right, Alpha Jace would be surrounded by a group of starving women trying to get his attention. Closing my eyes, I turned my head to the right, half scared to open them, because in my heart, I wanted this to so badly to be
Kit’s POV Red Moon thankfully fell that day, but so much was lost in taking them down, and my heart ached at the pain it has brought to all of us. But by taking down Red Moon, an alliance among those packs that fought together, had been formed, and Alpha Jace was deemed as head of a council that was created, so that not one pack was solely in control of the region. Dom had made the ultimate sacrifice that day, and my world and Damian’s, will be forever changed because of it. I no longer had to worry about Damian’s safety, as Alpha Orion was dead, and Luna Rebeca was also gone, at the hands of Lizzy, who I will forever be in her debt for. My father’s estate was now my home, and for the first time it actually felt like a home to me, especially since I had Ms. Caroline in my life again. It all felt so surreal being here, since it was the place that I had feared coming back to, for so long, but now I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.Even t
Dom’s POV I had loaded all the Alphas’ heirs in the van, like Alpha Jace had told me to, but as I began to drive down the lane with them, I found myself bringing the van to a complete stop, when I heard one of the Alpha boys say, “Domonic what is going on?” Looking into my rearview mirror, I realized quickly that he was talking to another little Alpha boy in the backseat, instead of me, and my eyes set on the little Alpha boy that was called Domonic. There was nothing about the Alpha boy that remotely looked like me, and it made me wonder if my intuition of Rebeca, not actually having my child was true. As I stared at him, I quickly realized who he resembled, and I knew now who Rebeca’s fated mate was. Damian at that moment whispers back to the other Alpha boy, “Don’t worry, you know our father will come for us.” As his eyes move to mine, looking at him in the rearview mirror.I didn’t have to think much on who he meant by their father,
Jace’s POV Not even bothering to wait for a response from Alpha Domonic, I race towards the house, knowing that my mate could very well be inside, especially since Luna Rebeca disappeared inside moments ago. As soon as I stepped inside the house, I could smell Elizabeth’s sweet scent filling my senses, and I knew that she had to be recently here in the foyer. Following her scent, I moved towards my right, down a hallway that look to be leading to Alpha Orion’s office. Voices now filled the air, as I could hear Luna Rebeca arguing with someone, and by the sounds of it, that someone was her mate, as she was scolding him for going to leave her. Pausing in the hallway, I heard her say to him, “Everything I have ever done has been for you. You promised me that we could finally be together soon, with our son.” A growl rippled from the room and down the hallway, letting me know that the male in the room was no other than Alpha O
Jace’s POV Alpha Domonic lets out a growl as he holds Luna Rebeca’s body by her throat, and I knew that I had to stop him from killing her at this moment, because it was now clear that we had our own bargaining chip to get Elizabeth back. Luna Rebeca obviously had a fated mate here at Red Moon, and I knew that her mate would do whatever it took to keep her safe. Even though I wanted Luna Rebeca dead for Kit and Damian’s safety, right now wasn’t the time to take her life, as we needed her to ensure my own mate’s safety. Shifting back into my human form, I move to Alpha Domonic, and say to him, “Don’t kill her yet. We need her to get Elizabeth back.” Alpha Domonic’s eyes move from Luna Rebeca to me, and I could see the anger in them for everything she had done to him, but right now he needed to focus on the task at hand and that was getting my mate back and saving the Alphas’ heirs. Releasing his grip, Luna Rebeca fell to the ground, gaspi
Dom’s POV Seeing Rebeca’s wolf now standing before me, fueled a fire inside of me, as I began to see red at the sight of her, and I had no doubt she was a major player in what was happening here. She had accompanied these wolves here for a reason, and something told me that reason was to see my end come to me, but by the look in her eyes, it was clear that she wasn’t expecting to see Alpha Jace with me. Alpha Jace at that moment began to move to his right, and I knew that he was trying to block her from being able to escape to warn Alpha Orion of our arrival, as I remained having eye contact with her, to try and distract her from what he was doing. But Rebeca wasn’t stupid, as she took a step to her left, and I quickly mimicked her, not allowing her to get past me. But her foolishness to think that she could get past me, cost her ground, as Alpha Jace closed in on her. Rebeca was now trapped between the two of us, and she had no means of
Jace’s POV It was clear that Dom was struggling with leaving Katrina like this, but he had his pack’s future to deal with. Plus, my Luna was still there, I am sure in danger at the hands of Alpha Orion, and I was going to make him pay for whatever he had done to her. It infuriated me that it had been her plan to go into Red Moon territory, deceiving me, but like Katrina had said, she was a female Alpha and a true Luna, and she thought she was doing this for the sake of all our packs. With that, I had to swallow my anger, and not take it to heart, because I knew if the shoe was on the other foot, I would have done the same thing. As we had been waiting to hear the outcome of Katrina’s surgery, the other packs had been getting into position, completely surrounding Red Moon pack’s borders. The plan that I had put in place after Alpha Domonic had left was a sure thing, at least it looked that way on paper. With having twelve packs backing us
Dom’s POV We moved our conversation into the house, as Ms. Caroline brought us a cup of coffee, and Damian a cup of hot coco, while we waited for Kit’s surgery to be completed. We only had a few hours before the attack on Red Moon was to take place, but we knew that Damian held valuable information to help us save the Alphas’ heirs since he had been held with them. Turns out that the heirs were being held at Alpha Orion’s estate, and there were twelve boys in total there, each of them with the same names given to them of their fathers. There was no doubt in my mind that this was how Kit had put it all together what was happening there, because she had helped me the night before, making all the calls to the Alphas of the region and saw the complete list of all their names. Now that Alpha Jace and I had this information, Alpha Jace changed the subject and asked Damian, “Did you see another lady with mommy there?” Letting me know that he mu
