Gabriel's POV"Hmmm...." I hum as I begin to wake up. I feel the tingles dancing across my face. I began to move around, moving my face closer to his touch. Closer to his fingers that are lightly tracing my face.I feel his body against mine, He's leaning over me. I slowly open my eyes, blinking them a few times as his face comes into focus.My heart skips a million beats when my eyes land on his. His face is in front of mine as he lightly trails his fingers over my face.His left elbow is on the other side of my face as he rest his head against his hand.He trails the fingers of his right hand down the side of my face then over my lips.I can feel the weight of his body, feeling his chest and stomach against mine."Good morning beautiful!"Malaki says in his rough deep morning sexy voice.The sound of his voice and his closeness makes my heart beat faster.I wrap my arms around him, then run my hands along his back. Loving the feeling of the tingles that dance under my fingers as I r
Gabriel's POV I braced myself, expecting my dad to yell at me. But my eyes went wide and so did Malaki's when my dad's fist met Malaki's face, sending him flying backwards. I could smell the scent of blood instantly. "You fucking asshole! If you ever lay a hand on my son again as his mate I will fucking end you!" I stood there for a moment dumbfounded. I couldn't even bring myself to move but the grunt and groans coming from my mate who's laying on the ground behind me while holding his bleeding nose snapped me out of it and I finally turned around. "Two years!!!... Two fucking years you put my son through hell?! You punched him in the face, choked him unconscious twice!... Oh hell no!... One hits not enough!" My dad said before running and leaping on Malaki. I watched horrified, frozen and unable to move as my dad brought his fist back then slammed it into Malaki's face. My dad squeaked as he was swiftly lifted off of Malaki. My Dad, growled as he quickly wiggled his way
Malaki's POVMy heart breaks as I watch my mate leave. I felt him, he felt responsible, at fault for everything that just happened.I quickly stood up, wanting to go after him but Maddox grabbed me."Just give him a little time. I think he needs some space. Just give him a few minutes then go after him." Maddox said.I looked at him before glancing back in the direction my mate took off.I looked to Cain and Christian. Cain no longer looks angry, he looks sympathetic."I'm sorry, I know you guys have a lot on your plate. I didn't mean to overreact." Cain said."No, I said some really mean things that I shouldn't have said. I'm sorry."I said then looked toward the tree line again. I just didn't have a good feeling about him running off like that. I know Maddox said to give him some time, but I can't."I'm sorry guys, I need to go after him. Something doesn't feel right."I said before running for the tree line. As soon as I was close enough I shifted. I quickly found his scent, I le
Lucian's POV Addison and I hold my baby girl's hand as we walk her down the stairs from our room. I had to let Finn go into heat. I could suppress it, but it basically stalls it. I can't hold it at bay until it goes away, because it won't go away. It's basically putting it on pause until he comes forward again. So I had to let Finn come forward so he could go into heat. Because of that, we couldn't spend time with Angelica so I took her home during my heat. She's been back for a couple of hours, and we've finally convinced her that it's safe and okay to come to dinner with us. I know she's scared and nervous, but I'm dying to show her off. I can't wait to introduce her to the rest of the family. I plan on letting her eat first, that way it gives her a bit of time to relax before I start introducing her to everyone. I feel the smile spread across my face as we approach the back door. I see Maddox walking toward it from the other side. He reaches forward and opens it, holding it op
**⚠️ Major trigger warring in this chapter. Rape, abuse and torture! ⚠️**Garrick's POVIt's just after dinner, and I'm Just about finished going over the plans for tomorrow night. Looking for loopholes, mistakes, or anything I may have missed.I look at the map, all the plans and everything looks in order. I feel happy with what I see and sit back in my chair. I let out a long breath as I run my hands down my face.Goddess, I hope this goes good! That old hag better not let us down.I look at my phone, checking the time.I log out then close my laptop, practically skipping out of my office. Excited to go downstairs and release some stress before the big fight.I make my way downstairs, chuckling at the long line that goes all the way up stairs and wraps around the hall.I never realized I had that many men here that were into the same thing that Scott and I were in to.Pretty much the entire pack house. But there's also a few people in here that live outside the pack house.Unfortunat
**⚠️ Major trigger warning in this chapter! Rape, abuse, torture.⚠️**Garrick's POV My eyes rake over his beautiful dark skin. I can see the dried blood and dried cum all over his skin from yesterday's activities. Once I was done with him, that's when I let everyone else have him.But they know better. Each day, no one's allowed to have him until I do. Once I'm done with him, everyone's allowed to have their turn.I reached down, wrapping my hand around one of his dreads before yanking his cute little head up."Oh come on now, you know I love to see your beautiful face!"I say and he instantly starts crying louder. He grabs my wrist, trying to get me to release his hair. I feel the smile spread across my face as I squat down in front of him while holding his hair back, forcing him to look at me.I watch the beautiful tears stream down his face. His chest shaking as he cries."Please, Please don't hurt me again!""Awe, shhhh."I say as I let go of his hair, my hand goes to his face and
Asher's POVWe're waiting just outside of Garrick's territory.My cousin called me frantic last night. His mate's little brother is being tortured, and they're not sure how much longer he can hold on.His mate's parents can feel the little brother getting weaker and weaker.My cousin, Joseph is begging for us to help. They want us to come in and rescue him along with any other omegas we can.It sounds like they're planning to attack us tonight. They're leaving their pack around noon.But they won't be to our pack until late evening. It sounds like they're meeting up with another pack, but Garrick wouldn't say who.Reid agreed to let me take a rescue team. We're going in at 1:00pm.That's an hour after they're supposed to leave. That should be plenty of time for the place to be clear for the rescue.He should be far enough away by then. They won't be able to link him to let Garrick know we're here. Also, if he feels any of his members die, we will be gone by the time he gets back.I too
Asher's POVMy stomach dropped and my blood ran cold as soon as I heard the explosion. I screamed for my son as I ran forward.I could feel he was hurt.As soon as I turn down that hall I could see all the smoke and debris everywhere.I made it to the stairs that went down to the basement. The door that was at the top was blasted away.The stairwell was dark and full of smoke. I could hear frantic voices, groans and the sound of Gabriel crying.I grab my phone, turning on the flashlight as I made my way down. Stepping over bodies and pieces of bodies as I continue down.I call for both boys, I hear the grunt and cough of my son and Gabriel's voice crying out to me."We're right here!"I move forward faster, trying not to step on anyone. I feel relieved when I see them. I drop down next to them, but I'm horrified at what I see.There's a large chunk of wood sticking out of my son's stomach. He looks at me with a pained face."Oh goddess Malaki!" I say as I bring a shaky hand toward him.
Cain's POVI was so lost in my thoughts, I never even heard Christian come out of the bathroom. Nor did I see him.I was off in my mind, thinking about my pack. Thinking of everything that happened and that's going to happen.The elders are coming in 2 weeks to make me the official Alpha for my pack. I haven't asked him yet, but I want Christian to officially become my Luna at the same time.I plan on asking him tonight, I don't know why I feel so nervous about it. But I do. I'm sure he'll say yes, but a part of me is scared he won't.A part of me is scared he won't want to leave his pack.When he accepted and mated with me, I wasn't getting ready to become an alpha.Garrick was the alpha, there was no talk of me being the next alpha.What if he only agreed and accepted me because he thought I was going to stay with him at his pack.... What if he has no intentions on coming with me?The thought has me more scared than ever now. I don't know what I would do if he doesn't want to come wi
Reid's POVI groan then moan, pressing my hips against him as I press him into the wall. His legs squeezed tighter as he rocks his hips against me. I feel his tongue move against my neck as he sucks and feeds from me.I squeezed his ass, pulling him against me again as I thrust my hips forward. Growling as I want to sink my cock into his ass.I feel as he extracts his fangs then licks the wound.I dropped my head into his neck, my chest rapidly rising and falling as I try to catch my breath. I feel his mouth and tongue as he sucks nips and kisses at my neck. Making his way up until he latches onto my earlobe.I groan, wishing we could take this further, but knowing we need to go.It's an amazing thing when he feeds from me. Unfortunately it's extremely difficult when we do this just before we have to be somewhere.As we were getting ready to leave the room Julian swayed, I caught him before he fell. I turned his face and was shocked at how pale he was. He had already fed off me twice t
Michael's POV Asher's pack is moving in, so we can combine the packs for the next 5 years until Harris is old enough and able to take over for him. We need to build a new pack house to accommodate Ashers people. The new pack house will go west of the current pack house. We will be clearing out an area on the south end of our territory for the new homes. With both of our packs working together, it should only take us 3 weeks to build the new pack house. Most of Asher's pack wants to go home until the new homes and pack houses is ready. And we don't blame them, most of them have been living in the large tent for the past few weeks. So because of that, most of his pack is moving back home. Although, 300 of his members will be going to my pack. Those are the members that will be helping build all the homes and new packhouse. Since Asher doesn't have a beta currently, and I do. I sent my pack home, with my Beta, Ryder in charge. Anders will be there to help him. Noah and I are goi
Michael's POV I moan as I feel the intense pleasure, these are the best dreams! I think as I feel my little omega ride my cock. Feeling his walls stretch around me as I move in and out of him.I moan again, My goddess is so tight! He feels so damn good!His little moans and whimpers are music to my ears.The sensation of his claws sinking into me to make me furrow my eyebrows and I feel myself slowly waking up.The only problem is I still feel the movement, this is no longer a dream...This little feisty shit is actually riding my cock while I'm sleeping again!Apon that realization I instantly stopped moving. It doesn't take long before I hear a frustrated growl come from him. He wiggles around as he moves up and down my length. I feel him push against my chest, trying to get me to do something.It takes everything in me not to laugh or smile. I simply lay here and pretend to be sleeping.He growls again as he thrust his hips against me, as if he's nudging me to get me to move.He gr
Maddox's POVAddison and I have been taking turns watching over Finn. He still hasn't woken up since he passed out in my arms after the war was over.He blinked to me just as I was almost back to the packhouse.He suddenly appeared right in front of me. His body was swaying, his wings disappeared instantly."Maddox!"Was all he was able to say as he reached for me. His eyes rolled in the back of his head as he fell forward.I caught him just in time, scooping him up into my arms.He scared the shit out of me!I ran straight to the doctor in the tent to have him looked at.The doctor couldn't find anything wrong with him, I freaked out even more when I learned that Angelica was unconscious so I couldn't even have her check on Finn to see if he was okay.Both my mate and my daughter were unconscious!I calmed down after Ryder told me why she was unconscious. I started connecting the dots. It only makes sense that if she passed out from using her light, that's most likely what happened to
The day before the war, later that evening. Xavier's POV I turn the shower off... I already know he's there. I open the shower and smirk at him but he doesn't smirk back nor does he smile at me. He simply hands me my towel. I look at his perfect face, his perfect hair and his his perfect body. "Stop those thoughts, that's not what I'm here for." My thoughts stops instantly and my stomach drops. He's never talked me like this before. He's so serious as he stands there looking at me. I can't tell if he's mad or not. I quickly dry off then wrap the towel around my waist. Glancing at him every now and then as I try to figure out what he's thinking. His walls are up so I can't feel him. I lightly pushed against it and it's firmly up. I don't want to push harder, because he'll feel it so I stopped trying. I feel nervous as I get out of the shower, afraid he knows exactly what happened down there and he's mad about it. "What's wrong?" I asked. "I was going to ask you the same thi
Reid's POV After leaving the cell, I couldn't face my mate.I know Eric was an evil man. I know he's done horrible things to my mate.... But this is just something I've never done before.I feel more like I'm one of them now. I feel like I'm the monster now. I feel disgusting, my skin feels like it's crawling, like I need to crawl out of it and hide.I head straight to my office, needing to be alone, and needing a shower. I'm so thankful I had that bathroom put in.I quickly make my way to my office, shutting the door and locking it. Making sure no one can enter. I barely make it to the bathroom before I drop to my knees and throw up into the toilet.I continue to throw up, emptying every last bit that was in my stomach.I slowly stand up, flushing the toilet before I turn toward the sink to wash my hands and face. I turn the water on, then wait for it to get warm.My eyes find their way to the mirror. I look at myself for a moment before I can't any longer. I rest against the sink as
Third Person's POV Noah hears himself purring as he lays on top of Asher while watching him sleep. His fingers lightly trace his face. His heart hurts for Asher, he can see the puffiness in his face still from crying last night. Luke was more than a Beta to Asher. He was a best friend, he was a brother. Noah hears his purr get louder as Asher begins to stir. He feels the excitement building in him, waiting for his eyes to open. Asher hums as he begins to open his eyes. His arms snaking around Noah's waist, his hands running across his skin as he snakes them around his waist. The biggest smile spreads across Noah's face as he finally looks into Asher's beautiful brown eyes. Asher smiles, then chuckles when he hears Noah's rough motor going and the big smile on his face. "I swear Noah, your purr never fails to amaze me. I absolutely love it!" He says then leans forward and presses a kiss to his lips. Noah's eyes slowly close when he feels Asher's lips against his. A little moan

The sound of his screams and cries was music to their ears.They both hear the loud noise his dick makes as it hits the inside of the metal garbage can."There, much better now! You don't have to worry about cleaning that anymore!"Xavier says as he turns and sets the tools down on the tray.Xavier hears the sound of the torch going. He's smirks when he looks over to see Reid heating up a piece of metal so he can cauterize the area where Eric's dick once was.They don't want him to bleed out and died too quickly.Eric screams and cries, begging and pleading as he watches Reid bring the extremely red hot piece of metal toward his body.He screams at the top of his lungs as Reid presses it against the wound. The disgusting stench of skin burning fills the air.Reid pulls the metal away."There, good as new!"He says then places the metal back on the cart. Eric continues to cry,
