Chapter 6: The Council
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"We have to do something besides sit on our asses and wait for an attack." Eric stands up and exclaims to the council angrily. Everyone else seems to want to wait, but they haven't been attacked as many times as we have in the last several weeks.
Not realizing that I can hear everyone's thoughts, a few of the council members think to themselves that Eric is just being stupid and that he isn't thinking this through first. We talked about it all morning before coming to the last day of the council meetings and we figured the only way we are going to get ahead of this is to start discussing attacks against the surrounding territories. Maybe then, we won't be so caught off guard next time.
Ryder stands up and speaks, "My brother is right, but first we need to secure what we do have before we go into attack mode. Defending should be our first priority, because if we don't have anything to come back to when we are done attacking, t

"Please." I beg for him to take me. Watching as Eric kneels down in front of me, he spreads my legs and his face disappears. Feeling his tongue lick my folds, I let out a small whimper and beg for more. "Please." He continues his assault on me. My fingers tangle in his hair while I throw back my head in ecstacy and I feel my wolf threaten to take over. Not now, I think to myself and force my inner beast to stay down. Eric stands up and suddenly picks me up, throwing me over his shoulder. I yell out, "Help help." then giggle. Pretending to kick and scream, I thrash around and he laughs as he carries me to the bed. After throwing me down, I stare into his wild eyes and watch as he loses his clothes quickly. When he stands in front of me naked, I realize that he is absolutely perfect. His sculpted body reminds me of those statues you see in the museum of Roman Gods. Handsome and stro
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 8: Sniffing Out The Traitor
"Who made lunch?" I ask smelling something cooking in the kitchen.Ever since the mate bond hit me, I have felt connected to Eric on such a deep level that I have never felt with anyone else before. In a way it is wonderful, but in another it makes me weak and I know this now. Being alpha's mate makes you stronger, but it also subjects you to being scrutinized by everyone.Never feeling good enough, I sit back and watch others in the pack and the way they react to me. Most of them treat me like they did before the bond, but there are some who are always watching everything I do and I hear their whispers when I'm not looking. Especially those closest to Eric it seems.Perhaps if I had been older, they wouldn't have minded so much, but as it is all I ever hear is a constant chatter of she is so inexperienced, young and she doesn't have a clue how to be a leader of a pack. They wonder why me and I often wo

"Raven, you are pregnant." The doctor announces with excitement in his voice. Shocked, I stand there not knowing what to say. The only time this could have happened was when we first met and I went into heat. For us, the only time we are fertile is when we are in heat and only with our bonded mate's. Realizing this is a horrible time to be pregnant, I don't quite know how Eric is going to feel about this when I tell him. He could take it one of two ways, either tear my throat out or be the happiest man alive. I won't know which one until I tell him though, unfortunately. "Is it safe to change form or fight pregnant?" I ask concerned, because I know full well that it will be necessary some time in the near future to do one or both. He looks at me hesitant and answers cautiously, "Honestly you shouldn't, but we both know that you will have to. Just try to stay out of harms way. After all,
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 10: Safe And Sound For The Moment
"Are you comfy, Raven?" Ryder asks, looking extremely concerned for my well being. "Yes, you are spoiling me. I will have to tell Eric when I get back, that you treat me better than he ever has." I say with a mischievious grin. Playing the two brothers on each other might be fun. After all, Ryder is treating me as if I am his mate. I could get used to this attention from two men. Laughing, I am just kidding myself, because I know full well that I am so in love with Eric I could never cheat on him, even with his twin brother who looks just like him. Ryder is the more passionate and caring one, but Eric is my total Alpha male. He is strong, confident, egotistical, possessive and intelligent. If I had the two combined, it would make the most perfect male I could have ever imagined. So when I sit here and stare at Ryder wishing Eric was more passionate and caring, I also would wish that Ryder was more co
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 11: What's The Commotion?
"Help me, please?" I hear out of nowhere and a lot of screaming. I smell fire and realize too late that the house just down the way is on fire after I look out the window. Not knowing what to do, I jump out of bed and leave the security of my bedroom. Searching the house, I can't find Ryder or anyone else and hope that they are already there. Running for it, I manage to get there in a matter of seconds and notice that it is eerily quiet except for the raging roar of the fire. No one else is here and when I search around, I see no evidence of anyone ever being here. Where is everyone? The screaming I previously heard is gone too, but replaced with a strange humming sound in my head, as if someone is purposely blocking my senses. Turning around to find Ryder, I feel a pain surge throughout my head and hear a thud. Waking up, I find myself back in bed and not knowing what has just happened. How did I ge

"Get out of the way." Ryder yells at me as he rams the front door before entering to try and save anyone in the house. As soon as he breaks it open he runs in, head down and with his shirt pulled over him so the fire doesn't burn him too badly. Now I get it, the scene in front of me is the exact same one as in my dream/premonition. I stand helpless, while I wait for him to emerge from the burning house. I don't see him immediately, but in a few minutes when I think for sure that he's dead, he comes barrelling out of the building with two pups over his shoulders. He drops them at my feet and runs back in. A minute later, there is a back draft and the windows blow out of the house. Crying, I look on as Ryder runs back out carrying the mother and father, but I can tell that at least the mother isn't going to make it. Her body is badly burned and the father is unconscious to say the least. With the two pups la
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 13: They Are After Me
"Get down." Ryder says, as he fends off a rogue right before he claws me in the stomach. Somehow they must have found out that I am pregnant with Eric's pups and now they are desperately trying to get rid of all of us. I hear Ryder growl as he changes into his wolf and looks beautiful in the moonlight. The white fur has a hint of black in it and when the moonlight shines on it, I could swear I see silver. Hearing fangs on bone, crunching and gnashing, I try my best to stay out of the way. In the end, my wolf takes over and I start to change form. A rogue attacks me and before Ryder can stop her, she connects with my stomach. I curl up defensively and land on my side, even in my wolf form I am painfully aware of the pups inside. Hoping for the best, I wait it out and in a few minutes, the attack is over. Eventually changing back, Ryder picks me up and takes me over to the doctor's house. He yells out

"Wake up." I hear far off in the distance as I open my eyes and see a bright light on me. Trying to stay awake, I force my eyes to keep open and stare at the wall so the light doesn't cause me to go blind. "Doc. Can you move the light over a little, it's right in my eyes?" I ask almost as a whisper because I seem to have absolutely no strength left in me. He reaches up and moves it so the light is just over a little, but he still can see while he is operating on me. Quickly glancing down, I see that he has my stomach open and he is desperately trying to save my pups lives. He says, "Now that you are awake, I can tell you what is going on. First of all, the reason why you don't feel anything is because I had to give you a spinal tap. This way I can work on you and the babies while you are conscious. Now the most important reason why you have to be conscious is, Ryder told me you can hear them in

Sitting there for the longest time, I have yet to figure out exactly what to do. I put my face in my hands and start to sob, but then I stop and stand when my cheek starts to ache again. Touching it, I press in and hear something clicking. Walking over to the mirror, I stare at my reflection. A broken woman looks back at me. Someone who once was proud and stood tall, I am now shattered and a mere shadow of myself. Today, I thought it was the end for me and the scary fact is that I had come to terms with everything. I forgave everyone and yet there is something that still bothers me. Eric said that he hasn’t been the Alpha I need him to be. What he doesn’t realize is that I don’t need him as an alpha, just my mate. He is everything I need and more, but because he feels like he failed me he has become someone else, and I see it in his eyes. The disappointment and sadness, but mostly regret.

“Crash” The whole house shakes as the sound reverberates through out every room. From upstairs, I hear someone screaming and then as soon as I get my bearings, I rush down to find out what has happened. The next thing I know, my face is buried in the pillows on the couch and there is someone over me with his hand on my head, not letting me move. I hear a man speak in a low deliberate voice, “I presume that you are Raven the Luna of the Wild Fang Walkers and Alpha Eric’s mate.” Staring at me as he waits for my response, I say nothing. “Alright, so we know that you are one in the same and I have been sent here to take you back to my boss, the King pin of Avalon City. Apparently the two of you, have done quite a bit of damage to the syndicate and they don’t appreciate it. They have sat back long enough and tolerated your presence. So, from this moment on, the humans rule this planet, not your kind. By the way, has anyo
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 60: The Calm Before The Storm
It has been 2 years since the war with the humans. When Eric stomped them down, the mafia bosses seemed to not want any more to do with us. Just as long as we don’t leave our territory, and they don’t leave theirs we all get along. “Momma, momma.” “Momma.” Turning to Hope and Justin, I smile and then take one in each arm before standing up. Kissing them on the head, I remember when things weren’t going so well. My world is different now though, because everyone respects me and when I say something, there are no more doubts. Of course, Eric might have something to do with that. The moment someone even thinks about it, Eric rips their throats out and doesn’t give them a second chance, because he is a powerful adversary all on his own and with me by his side, we are unstoppable. Not to mention, now that the pups are growing big and strong, he would never let anything happen to them ever again. As I carry
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 59: A Rose By Any Other Name
As soon as word gets out that I am about to get out of the clinic, Eric comes rushing in with a dozen red roses and a huge smile on his handsome face. The last few days, he has been staying at the clinic, but this morning he ran off and I didn’t know why till now. I stare at him as he waits patiently for the doctor to walk in and check me over. Hearing the doctor from the other room, we both glance at each other and smile. The door opens and then the doctor peers in, checking to make sure he isn’t intruding before he enters the room. Eric immediately starts pacing because I can tell he can’t wait to get me out of here. After all, tonight is a full moon. Still holding the roses, he remembers that he is carrying them and leans forward so I can smell. So, I close my eyes and take a breath in through my nose. The scent fills me, and I make a “Mm” Sound. When the doctor walks over to me and listens to my heart, he gl

“Raven, do you know where Lizzy went? The pups are hungry, and she isn’t anywhere to be found. I don’t like the fact that people disappear far too frequently around here. We have to start doing something about it.” He stares at me with a frown before waiting for me to answer. “Well, I can take care of the pups food needs for the moment, but we have to find someone who will actually be here full time. I thought she was responsible enough, but maybe she found her mate and they have gone off somewhere to be alone. Who knows?” He nods and then leans down before giving me a kiss on the lips that feels more like he is thinking of something else. His eyes wander to the window before he walks off and disappears out the door. Staring after him, I put down my book and stand up to go to the kitchen, when I hear a strange noise in the bathroom. Cocking my head, I listen for a minute longer. Nothing, but the minute I s
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 57: Is It A Figment Of My Imagination?
“Bang” “Boom” My eyes hurt and feel puffy, but when I wake up it is pale in comparison to the sharp pain still in my shoulder. Now I am beginning to wonder if the blow to my skull hasn’t caused me to hallucinate, because I hear loud noises in the next room and Eric’s voice again. He is shouting out asking, “Where is she? I know you have her.” “Boom” “Crash” “Boom” Sitting there, I notice something after a little while. Everything grows quiet and right before Jeremy’s face peers through the door, I see someone sitting in the corner staring at me. It is a bit odd, but I dismiss it quickly as also part of my imagination till he turns the light on, and I see it is not. Jeremy walks in and then I see an older grey-haired man who looks to be almost 7 foot tall. His eyes are wide and a shade of blue that is so bright that it looks unreal. I can smell his cologne from a mile away and it makes m
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 56: It Was him
“I knew that Eric’s little bitch wasn’t very strong. I am frankly surprised that he chose you in the first place. He could have had any number of women. Matter of fact, even now after having human women, he still prefers you and I have no idea why.” Jeremy’s face is so close to me that I feel the spittle running down my face as he speaks vehemently towards me. As I feel someone yank me backwards and to my feet by my upper arms sharply, I wince in pain when I feel my shoulder dislocate. I hear a popping noise and then close my eyes in pain and agony. Writhing around, I grimace when he forces me to look at him. “Look at me bitch! You are a female dog after all.” He stares into my eyes as close as he possibly can before he snaps his teeth together, acting like he is going to bite my nose off. “I bite too you know?” He winks at me and then shows me his biggest Cheshire Cat smile. They yank me har

“It’s not what it looks like. I promise.” Ryder turns around to face Eric and tries to explain. “Hmm. Let’s see. My mate is wet and naked, you are touching her chin and it looks like you just kissed her. Exactly what is it then?” I can already see the rage in Eric’s eyes from clear across the room. Ryder glances from me to Eric and then replies, “I walked in, because I saw you stomp off in a huff from your bedroom.” He sighs before continuing. “Wanting to make sure she was alright, I knocked and when she didn’t answer, I entered. When I did, she was in a horrible mess, ranting and raving about Jeremy so I threw her in the shower to cool off and get ahold of herself.” Walking closer to Eric now, he keeps an eye on him as he says, “This is just before you came in. When I shut off the shower, she walked out and then I was just about to ask her a question when you came through the door.” Eric sta
Mated For Life The Alpha's Mate Chapter 54: It Was Better When I didn't Know
I wake up groggy and look at the clock, it’s 4:15 but Eric is mumbling something in his sleep with his arm tight around my chest. Not being able to break free, I try to turn over at least but can’t. Instead, I end up staring at the ceiling and listening to every horrible word he says. “Jeremy, yyyou have to stop with the women. I can only take sooooo many.” He slurs and there are several moments when he just stops before finishing the sentence. Hearing him speak, makes me want to curl up and die because I realize that he is talking about yesterday. Lying there, I silently cry because I know what he has done is wrong. The problem is I have done the same thing before. Haven’t I? I know that it was not to the same extent, but the sheer fact is that I cheated on him and now he has gotten his revenge. Feeling him start to move, I try to wiggle from his grasp, but I don’t succeed. Instead, he m
