Finn's POVI was careful pushing the cart down the hall to the office. I made sure everything looked right before knocking on the door.As soon as I heard the Alpha tell me to come in I quickly open the door and carefully pushed the cart into the room. I was watching the food, making sure nothing spilled as I made my way toward the table.But as soon as I got next to the table I smelled him. I never thought I would see or smell him again. My heart began to race immediately. I bit my cheek as hard as I could to keep the tears at bay that wanted to fall.I couldn't afford to start crying in front of the alpha and his beta. That would definitely raise some red flags.I couldn't help but hope that maybe I was the reason he was here. Maybe he was here for me. I kept glancing at him but he wouldn't even lift his head to look at me. He looked tensed, his hands were clenched tight, he looked angry.It didn't take me long to figure out he wasn't here for me. My hopes again crushed, feeling my h
Maddox's POV I just made it into my room, slamming the door shut and locking it, not wanting to be bothered. As I started to walk toward the bed I stumbled forward clutching my stomach and chest. I stumbled toward the bed and caught it before I fell. I grunted and clenched my teeth at this painful sensation that burned through my chest and stomach. I cried out and fell backwards arching my back when I felt the same pain suddenly spread across my back. I laid there panting and sweating as I tossed and turned while crying out. I heard banging at the door and voices but couldn't respond. I heard a crashing sound as the door was broken open. Addison and Xander quickly at my side trying to figure out what was wrong. I screamed out almost flying off the bed as the intense burn and pain shot across my back several more times. The sensation so familiar now, I could barely breathe. I was back in that room hanging from the ceiling as they whipped me. I screamed in agony as the lashes ke
Maddox's POVAs I made my way back near the tree line I grabbed a pair of sweatpants and t-shirt I found that somebody hid behind a tree and slipped them on.As I came out of the tree line I seen Addison getting into her car and starting to drive away.I quickly ran and jumped in front of her car to stop her. The car screeching to a halt as she looks at me angrier than I've ever seen her before.She slams the car in park and jumps out before storming toward me. I took a step back but she didn't stop as she walked up jamming her finger in my chest while yelling at me."How dare you! How dare you drop that kind of bomb on me and then just fucking take off and not finish the conversation!You just fucking left him there! Goddess knows what's going on with him.You just screamed in agony for over an hour until we sedated your ass and come to find out it's not your own pain it's his, HIS! And you're not going to do anything about it!Maddox I don't know what the fuck is wrong with you, I un
Maddox's POV The rest of the drive was much lighter, the air wasn't as thick. I felt more relaxed after our mushy moment. But as we were about 20 minutes out from snaggletooth's pack I started feeling him. I felt how sad he was. How heartbroken, how alone and broken he felt. It was faint at first and I couldn't quite understand what I was feeling initially. But the closer we got the stronger those feelings came to me. As we crossed through alpha Eric's territory his feelings washed over me like a tidal wave. I could feel how desperately he wanted to die. I could feel how bad he wanted it all to end. How alone he was, how abandoned he felt. I could feel how physically hurt he was. My goddess, he's as hurt as I was. I can feel his lifeline barely hanging on. And for the first time, for the first time since I've seen him... The first time since I laid eyes on him I wasn't afraid to be with him. I felt my body trembling in anger the closer we got to the pack house. I could see it c
Maddox's POV Addison and I got situated in the backseat with our mate in my arms While Xander drives us home. Both vehicles speeding out of their territory as fast as we could. As we are leaving we could hear several howls in the distance. I know one of those howels must be Eric's son Mike. He wasn't in the pack house when we were there this time. And the fact that there's only nine of us total, we definitely can't afford to hang around. "Xander, call my brother and ask him if he can meet us back at the pack to heal him." I said to Xander as I looked down at our mate in my arms. I slightly adjust him so that he's resting against me at a better angle and he groans. My heart breaks looking at his poor body. I bring a shaky hand up to his face, gently brushing his hair back away from his face. I look at Addison when I hear her sniffle. I see her looking at him with tears running down her face. She brings her hand up to his face and lightly runs her fingers across it. I hear her t
Maddox's POV I sit here staring at him, taking in his features for the first time. His long light brown hair that almost has a red tint to it. It's straight and hangs to his chin. He has thick eyebrows with a sharp arch to them. A cute little nose and light stubble around his chin and jawline. He's extremely thin, he was very light when I carried him. They definitely didn't feed him much. I turn my head when I hear Addison come out of the bathroom. She pauses and looks at us with a smile. She walks around the bed before climbing in behind him. She lays down next to him and props herself up and her elbow while looking at him. "He looks so peaceful now." She said looking at him and she's right. For the first time tonight he does look peaceful. I turn my head and look toward the couch, contemplating sleeping there. I know I finally accepted him, I'm just not sure I'm ready to sleep next to him. "Maddy, sleep with us." I hear Addison say, obviously reading my thoughts. I look bac
Finn's POV I groan from the pain when I feel my body being shifted around.I slowly wake up feeling little tingles and zaps brush across my face. I can instantly tell I'm no longer hanging from the ceiling, but instead I feel like somebody's holding me. I feel the warmth of their body against mine. My eyes slowly open, blinking a few times as everything comes into focus. My eyes finally land on the person holding me and my eyes instantly go wide when I see his face, it's him! He's here, he's holding me... I feel my eyes burn as the tears prickle at my eyes. I feel my lower lip tremble as I struggle not to cry. Why is he here... I thought he didn't want me. I thought he didn't care what happens to me. But I feel a sliver of hope as I search his face trying to figure out what's going on. I don't see the same anger that I saw last time. His face looks sad as he looks at me. I don't understand. "I'm so sorry, I should have never left you. I didn't know." He said. I felt my heart
Finn's POV I'm startled awake when I hear someone screaming and feel something hitting and kicking me. My eyes shoot open as a finally look around to see what's going on and that's when I hear Maddox crying and screaming. "No!... Please don't do this!" I quickly sit up and look at him as he's flailing around while sleeping. His body is trembling and sweaty. Tears streaming down his face as he cries and screams. He keeps screaming over and over, "no, please stop, don't do this to me!" I'm confused not sure why he's having this type of nightmare. It breaks my heart hearing him scream and cry like this. I climb on top of him as I try to control his arms and legs while yelling his name over and over again, trying to get him to wake up. Addison is at his side as she shakes him trying to wake him. I break down as I hear his cries, hear him pleading for someone to stop hurting him.What could have happened to cause him to have this type of dream. His eyes finally fly open as he gasped
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
** Trigger warning! Torture Warning!**Third person's POVXavier and Reid laugh as Eric screams, bloody murder. 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,
