From Daunte's POV

Blood was everywhere! You think of a murder scene, and this was it. From what I could see, nobody was in the room, just blood. I had seen a lot of blood on the battlefield, but this was different.

This was my home, my mates' room, this was my pack!

The only thing running through my mind was getting Alessia out of there. Turning and looking at her, I saw panic in her eyes immediately; I knew I had fucked up.

"How the fuck did we not catch this?" I thought to myself.

"Not sure!" I heard Romo's voice echo in the folds of my mind.

"You are slipping; how can you not smell all this blood?" I asked him.

"There is nothing to smell, fleshing," he retorted.

"What the fuck does that mean?" I replied, surprised by his response.

How could he not smell this? As wolves, we had an impeccable sense of hearing and smell. With that in mind, it became apparent that I had not heard anything; no one did! I cleared my throat before taking Alessia's hand and pulling her out of the room.

    From Alessia's POVWaking up the following day, I felt relaxed and at ease. As if something weighing me down had been lifted from me. That was until I realized I was not in my room. Sitting up in bed, I noticed my surroundings were much more luxurious.The walls of the bedroom were painted a lovely creamy beige. The bed was large and covered in a white down comforter. A chandelier hung from the ceiling, and a vast window overlooked the backyard. For a moment, I was in bliss until my eyes landed on the lounge by the balcony window, and I noticed Daunte lying down fast asleep.After pushing off the comforter, I slipped off the bed and slowly made my way toward the couch. As I stood there, I watched him for a moment. I studied his face very carefully, every feature from the lines on his forehead to his well-defined jawline. His eyes were closed, and he was snoring softly. His chest rose and fell with each breath, and I could feel my heart racing as I watched his peaceful face. I stood th

    From Daunte's POV I had stayed up the entire night, watching over Alessia. As stalkerish as it sounds, I needed to make sure that nothing came after her. A few times, I almost dozed off, but Romo woke me up. I had been feeling a little better, still not at full strength, but I didn't want anyone to know. I had to stay and make sure Alessia was safe. Dominic had worked throughout the night to get the room cleaned up, but even so, I still wasn't sure I wanted to send Alessia back in there, a conversation I would have to have with her sometime today, but for now, I basked in the glow of her happiness as we shopped. I could tell she was enjoying herself. It pulled at my heartstrings that she was deprived of this small, simple pleasure, yet I was happy I could share this experience with her. While Sara and Alessia shopped, Dominic and I stood back but close enough to make sure they were safe. "D, what are we going to do about this?" Dominic asked. "Honestly, I have no idea where to be

    From Alessia's POVLight all around me was all I saw. I had no memory of how everything happened. One minute, we are having a spa date, and the next, I am surrounded by a black cloud. Suddenly, I am transported here. I looked around in shock, unable to comprehend what had happened. I was alone, in a strange place, with nothing but the light around me.Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice I had not heard in years."Hello, my daughter," my father's voice came from behind me.As I turned around, I saw him standing there, dressed in white, only ten feet away. Not a day had passed since he died; he looked the same as when he was alive. As he floated towards me, his eyes were filled with love."FATHER!" I yelled as I ran towards him and wrapped my arms around him. He embraced me and whispered, "I'm always with you, my child. I will never leave you." I broke down in tears, overwhelmed with emotions."Daddy, I've missed you so much. I'm sorry for what I did that day. It was my fault if I hadn't

    From Daunte's POVHearing that High Councilman Adam was her uncle made my heart drop. After all the bullshit we had gone through two years ago, dealing with that shit again made my blood boil.Hector had fought hard to keep Maliyla by his side because of her ex-mate, and Jonathan and Katia had been through some shit. I stood by their side, fought by Hector's side, and even walked Maliyla down the aisle. There was no way in hell I would allow anyone to come and take their happiness away, let alone mine and my mates.I would have to talk to Hector, but for now, my concern was getting Alessia to the packhouse safely. After we got her cleared to leave, I drove her straight home. Her room had already been cleaned, but I wanted to keep her close. As I rounded the driveway, I turned to face her and noticed tears falling."What's wrong, little one?" I asked as I shut the car off."My mother and father, I saw them. I hugged them," she said as she covered her face with her hands and sobbed. I s

    From Alessia's POVTelling Daunte that I love him and hearing him say it back was the most beautiful moment of my life. I felt a rush of emotion I had never experienced before. I looked into his eyes and felt a sense of peace and happiness like I had never felt. The moment the words left my mouth, I knew I had found the person I wanted to build a life with.There was just one more thing I needed to take care of, and for that, I needed to talk to Sara.Gazing into Daunte's eyes, I whispered, "I need to talk to Sara, but I'll be right back," I told him as I kissed his cheek and hurried out of the room.I needed to ask her about my memory loss. It made no sense why I had no recollection of anything except certain aspects of my life. As I descended the stairs, I hurried to the living room and found Sara reading a book."Sara?" I called her name as I walked over and sat on the sofa beside her. She looked up and smiled. "Hi, what's up?" she asked."I need to talk to you," I said."About what

    From Daunte's POVI always thought that marking my mate would take place in a more romantic fashion. A candlelight dinner, roses, and passionate kissing all night long; that's how I had pictured it to be. Yet, this was anything but romantic.Seeing the look in her eyes as she moved her hair aside and assured me she was sure of this, I saw both pain and fear. I knew I had to do something to show my love and sincerity and to make her feel better. I took a deep breath and pulled her in for a kiss. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and I tightened my embrace just as my canines pierced her skin, and she whispered those three little words.I felt her body go limp as I licked her wound. I knew marking her would drain her because she wasn't in the right shape to do this. As I carried her to the bed and laid her down, I saw tears falling from her face."What's wrong, little one?" I asked as I wiped her tears.Alessia smiled weakly before speaking."My turn," she whispered, sitting up slowly

    From Alessia's POVAs I opened my eyes, I didn't recognize where I was. Glancing around the room, I knew right away that I was not at the Onyx Fang packhouse. I noticed Daunte was also absent from the room. I sat up in bed, and right away, I felt a pain in my neck, and suddenly all came back to me.I rushed to the dresser and looked in the mirror. There, I saw what resembled a full black moon, and inside were two fangs; both looked as if they were glowing. It was perfectly imperfect. I smiled at the memory of the moment it happened.All of a sudden, there was a sudden surge of emotions, but they were not my own. Confusion swept over me. Although I didn't know where the feelings came from, I felt cared for and loved. I tried to ignore the strange sensation, but it lingered, and I couldn't shake it off. Despite not being able to explain it, I felt a deep connection to something or someone. There was a deep sense of peace and contentment in me that I hadn't experienced for quite some time

    From Alessia's POVI listened to Evangeline as she recalled how she met my parents. My father took over the pack after my grandfather passed away. A year later, he met my mother. My father had to meet with the High Council due to changes he wanted to implement. Under normal circumstances, an Alpha never needed to get approvals. Still, because my father wanted to expand the borders to an area that would bring the pack in close proximity to humans, my father would need to get the High Council's approval.It was at that meeting that he first saw my mother. My father not only left with the approval he needed, but he left with his mate.Two years later, I was born, and a year later, my brother Adam was born.(Flashback)"We knew your mother and Adam were related; we just never said anything. After all, they were the two original founding members of the high council," Evangeline explained."At what point did her mother ask for help?" Daunte asked."Kathrine came to me concerned about vision

Nothing else mattered, not the people in the room nor the sound of my heart beating in my chest. There was only one thing I cared to listen to: the monitor that indicated that Daunte was still with me. As far as I was concerned, losing him was not something that I could cope with at this moment in time. As a result of the fact that he attempted to sacrifice himself for me, I was further convinced of the extent to which he cared for me.As I sat in the chair next to his bed, I recalled the last minutes of our battle as I remembered how we had come so close to losing each other. Watching Jared sacrifice himself in order to save Daunte was one of the most heartbreaking memories I would carry with me. A few seconds before the silver nitrate bullets were fired, Jared had shoved him out of the way. Although one of the bullets still managed to hit Daunte in the shoulder, the ot

    ***Five Years Later***"Mommy, Mommy, Uncle Hector said a bad word after he hit Daddy," Mikaylea yelled as she ran into the kitchen. There was a great deal of worry and concern in her light blue eyes."Awww, sweetie, I am sure that Daddy and Uncle Hector were only playing," I said to her as I approached her and scooped her into my arms, brushing her strawberry blonde hair from her face.In spite of the fact that Mikaylea was only five years old, nothing flew past her. After placing her in a regular preschool, we were surprised to discover that she was already exceeding every child her age. The sound of laughter reverberated throughout the hallway as Daunte and Hector walked into the kitchen, and I placed Mikaylea in her high chair."You know that I won," Daunte laughed as he approached me, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing me."Uncle Hector, you hit Daddy," Mikaylea exclaimed, pointing her little finger at Hector."Yes, I did, but only because he fucken deserved it," Hecto

    From Alessia's POVIt was never in my head that I was lucky or blessed, not after all the things I have experienced. Many nights, I literally cried myself to sleep, asking the moon goddess to take me away from this life that had been given to me, one which was so disappointing to me. Other times, I would wonder why I was left alone to survive while my parents were gone.All of that changed when Daunte walked into my life and changed everything for me. He changed my life, and I was exposed to new possibilities. To say that I am blessed to have him in my life is an understatement. Having said that, there aren't even a few words that can do justice to my emotions and how he makes me feel. It has been Daunte who has been my rock, the source of my salvation, the source of my reassurance, and a beacon of light in the dark, and I can only wish that others are as fortunate to find someone like this in their lives.I had come full circle in my life, having gone from an orphan to an omega withou

    From Daunte's POVAs far as I knew, Alessia had never been outside the city, let alone out of the country. Hence, when Hector mentioned taking Alessia somewhere she'd never been, I asked Maliyla to investigate on my behalf. Imagine my surprise when Alessia confided in Maliyla that she had never seen snow before. After hearing that, it only made sense to take her to Breckenridge since the weather there was perfect for skiing, especially during the winter when the snow was falling, the most beautiful time of the year.I had made sure to leave everything in Dominic's hands, with Hector serving as a backup in case he wasn't available. However, after Luke mentioned that his mate was in my pack, it became evident that he should stay at the Onyx Fang pack to resolve things with her. In order to accommodate Alessia and me comfortably, I had asked Hector to reserve one of the private cottages. I had planned for our honeymoon to only last for two weeks. Due to her carrying pups, I needed to make

    From Daunte's POVWatching her walk down the aisle was one of the most breathtaking moments of my life. I will never forget the look she had in her eyes, and I will never forget how she looked at me. Alessia came into my life and changed every aspect of it. I had heard her say many times that she was the luckiest woman, but in reality, I was the lucky one. Every day with her was even more magical than the last. Alessia was the reason I believed in love and the answer to my prayers."Thank you," I said to Hector as I took Alessia's hand and guided her up the remaining stairs to where my father stood. I had asked him the night before to perform the ceremony. I knew that my grandfather had performed his, and I wanted to keep the tradition going."We are gathering here today to witness the union of not one Alpha but two. The goddess had chosen these two amazing people to come together in a union unlike any other," he said, pausing momentarily and smiling at Alessia and me."There are many

    From Alessia's POV***Three days later***There was something inexplicable about waking up the morning of the ceremony. At that moment, I felt as if I was the king of the world, well, queen in my case. In the past, if you had asked me if I had ever seen myself mated with an Alpha male and being this happy, I would have laughed at the idea. Daunte was a blessing in so many ways. The kindness with which he treated me was beyond anything I had ever experienced before. During the course of our relationship, he demonstrated his love to me in ways I could never have imagined was possible.Opening my eyes, I turned to find his side of the bed empty. Extending my arm, I touched his side of the bed. The warmth he left behind filled me with a wave of warm chills. Pulling his pillow towards me, I closed my eyes and inhaled his scent. I lingered for a moment, savoring the feeling of his warmth. I felt a surge of emotion wash over me, and I whispered a silent prayer of gratitude for his presence i

    From Daunte's POVSeeing Alessia in such a happy state was the best feeling of my life. It was as if she was glowing; her smile alone would brighten your day, and the love she held in her eyes was more meaningful and magical than anything I had ever witnessed.As long as I can remember, I have prayed to the Goddess to give me a mate, and after having watched so many of my closest friends go through hell and back with their mates, I figured that if it made me happy, I would want to go through the same struggles and pains that they did. For me, Alessia's pain, anger, and love meant more to me than anything else in life, and I would happily relive them again and again if I had to do so.In all honesty, finding out that she was pregnant was one of the best pieces of news I ever received; it was one of the most rewarding feelings in my life to have pups in my life. As soon as Hector and Maliyla gave birth to Pethasillla, the feeling began to develop in me; as I spent more and more time wit

    From Alessia's POVWhoever said that planning a wedding was easy was a liar. At least, in my eyes, they were. Having to go through all the dress fittings, the cake tasting, food, and floral arrangements turned out to be a nightmare. Kira was a huge help, and so was Jackie. I had asked Daunte to excuse Jackie from work to assist me. I missed talking to her and needed her advice on many things, especially my pregnancy. Although Jackie herself didn't have pups, I needed advice on what to tell Daunte. I wasn't sure if he was ready to have any. As Alpha, I knew that pups were a big deal, as it was through our children that the bloodlines and legacy continued, but was he ready? And most importantly, was I?Briseis had been silent for the last few weeks. Talking to her had become almost nonexistent. It was almost as if she had disappeared.Everything seemed to happen so quickly that I didn't believe it at first. However, it all started making sense when Margaret increased my food intake and

    From Alessia's POV Two days had passed since we returned from the Mystic Shadow pack. It was a bittersweet experience. A total of two hundred pack members came back with us to the Onyx Fang Pack. I was happy to have my aunt Millie come with me and Exodus, who we later learned was her mate. However, I was heartbroken to see so many people left behind. Even though we left food and other supplies and promised to return to help them rebuild their homes on the Mystic Shadow pack grounds, I still felt a sense of emptiness but also a sense of hope for the future. I was looking forward to helping rebuild my old pack and making it even stronger than before. Back at the Onyx Fang Pack, Jackie had fitted in quite nicely and had already begun working for Daunte and Hector. I was happy to have my best friend with me, even if I didn't see her as often as I thought I would. Margaret was back to her usual self, and in true Margaret fashion, she ensured that Daunte had his coffee as he liked. There w
