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

From Alessia's POVDaunte and I sat in silence. The tension in the air could be felt. I wanted to say something, but I had no idea where to begin. I felt terrible for acting this way towards him, especially after telling him to mark me. Now I was acting like he was a walking plague. I tried to think of something to say, but nothing came to mind. I needed to calm down and break the ice."I'm sorry," I finally said.Daunte's brows furrowed. "What are you apologizing for?" he asked."For not telling you I was out here and how I have been acting," I replied.He chuckled lightly and shook his head."What's so funny?" I asked."We knew you came out here because Hector has this entire place covered with surveillance cameras, and I can sense you now that we have marked each other," he said as he stood and walked over to me, sitting in the chair next to me."Why and where are these so-called cameras?" I asked, glancing around."Hector is the CEO of Benatti Industries, the leading security tech

From Alessia's POV"Goddess" was all I could think of as Daunte's hands sent chills throughout my body.This was the first time I had experienced something like this. The warmth and softness of his lips made me feel goosebumps, and I couldn't help but moan every time he kissed me. His lips lingered on mine, and I could feel his breath against my skin. My heart raced, and I could feel my body shaking. As I slowly opened my eyes, I was surprised to see him staring directly at me, his face adorned with a mischievous grin.With a calm voice, Daunte said, "You're not getting away that easily, little one," before locking me in a passionate and forceful kiss.As my hands instinctively moved toward his hair, I melted into his embrace, feeling a sense of complete surrender and bliss. He effortlessly rolled onto his back in a fluid and gentle movement, allowing me to sit comfortably on top of him. Slowly, his hands slipped up my back as our tongues remained locked in a passionate dance.His han

From Daunte's POV As I awoke the following day with Alessia next to me, I was overwhelmed with emotion. I had not expected us to consummate the mate bond. I wanted to ensure she was comfortable before we did anything, but I couldn't hold back when she initiated things. I glanced over and saw Alessia was still fast asleep. I kissed her forehead and whispered I love you before slowly getting up and getting dressed. I left the room, heading down the stairs. I needed to talk to Hector and let him know about Jared's threat. I walked into the kitchen and found him already there, drinking coffee. "You're up early?" Hector smirked, cocking a brow at me. "We need to talk," I replied as I sat across from him. "Yeah, let's talk about the fact that the fucken room you're in is not soundproof, mother fucker," he said, chuckling. "Fuck you!" I replied, laughing, running my hand down my face. "I think your mate already did that to you last night," Hector replied sarcastically. I shook my head

From Alessia's POVLight filtered through the curtains, and I could feel a soft, cool breeze flowing through. I opened my eyes to find a little girl on the bed with me. I gasped in surprise and quickly sat up, covering my naked body with a sheet.The little girl smiled, and it suddenly dawned on me that she was Maliyla and Hector's daughter, Pethasillia. I glanced around the room and noticed that Daunte wasn't present. I turned back to Pethasillia, who had a broad smile on her face."Umm, h-have you seen Daunte?" I asked her.As Pethasillia nodded, she smiled. "Uncle Daunte is downstairs with Daddy," she said. "So why are you naked?" she asked.My jaw dropped as my eyes widened in surprise. Immediately, I tightened the sheet around me, ensuring nothing was exposed. Suddenly, Maliyla walked in."There you are. I have been looking all over for you," she said to Pethasillia. "I am so sorry," Maliyla said, turning to me, then turned back to the child, "You know better than to go into othe

From Jared's POVI hated myself - I hated that I had made a deal with this entity now consuming my body. I would have never agreed if I had known everything he was planning. All I wanted was my wolf, and now that seemed as though it would never happen. I felt powerless and helpless. I had no one to turn to, no one to help me or understand my dilemma. I was alone, and I felt like I was going crazy.Then there was Alessia on top of everything else. Whenever I thought of her, I couldn't stop thinking about all that I had done to her. The things I subjected her to were beyond anything I would allow my sister or mother to endure. The worst part about the entire thing was that I had done these things to maintain my title, which no longer existed. While I sat and thought about everything, I couldn't help but wonder if Selene had been testing me all along. If that was the case, I was in a difficult position as a result of not seeing it until now.My feelings of hatred for myself increased as

Bonus chapter***Alessia's Promise is Fulfilled***There was only one sound I could hear: the sound of the monitor. 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
