Marie’s POV The battle yesterday went ok, there are a few serious injuries, including Luca, Patrick’s cousin. It was his first battle and he fought well. He should be okay, thankfully. There are new mates! My cousins, Edward and Emmett, found their mates! Edward to an Alpha Female named Monica. Emmett to Luca, future Alpha of Silver Creek. “Seems the goddess wants our families interwoven,” Patrick is smiling at me, as we fly to meet his parents. He still won’t tell me why he won’t replace the Gamma line, nor will he have sex with me. Something is different, I know because I know him. “It would appear so. But, I want to talk about something else please,” I smile at him. “What do you want to talk about, my love?” He asks me, pulling me in his lap. I kiss him with a needy passionate kiss. I’m wearing a dress for a reason. “Make love to me,” I pant, breaking our kiss. He closes his eyes and pulls me close for a second kiss, but only a kiss. “Not yet, my love.” I stand up
Patrick’s POVMarie is going to take a long time to forgive me. My choice was really about her. I don’t want her to ever regret her life.We land in the Lycan Kingdom and are greeted by my parents.“I screwed up and to get myself out of the doghouse I had to call Blake, Carlisha, and Tony and tell them about Ceylon. Or get rejected at thirty-five thousand feet.” I tell them before hugs and hellos.“What did you do?” My mother snarls and hits the side of my head before even hearing my side. “He got a vasectomy without discussing it with anyone.” Marie interjects.“You did what?” My dad looked pissed.“It’s reversible,” I add quickly.“What if something goes wrong?” My mom asks. “A McConnell has been Alpha for the past 600 years.”“You are insane,” My father is almost as angry as Marie.“I’m Alpha, I made a decision. Discussion over,” I use my Alpha command.They all bust out laughing. Dad is holding us his stomach laughing. “We are all Alphas; you can’t command us!” Marie gets out.
Marie POV They did not just kidnap the granddaughter of the moon goddess, daughter of Claire Wallace, mate of Patrick McConnell, daughter-in-law of Kassandra Byatt. The level of stupid. I roll my eyes as this Lycan who is carrying me takes me to a little house in the woods. It’s clean, well kept. Looks like a hunting lodge. I send my mom the distress signal and I wait. I know she will be telling Patrick where I am and any Lycan who gets in his way is dead. So much for a treaty. Blood Moon is about to go to war with the entire Lycan Kingdom. “Did you know Lycan’s mate at seventeen?” A smooth, unfriendly, unfamiliar voice coos at me. I turn and a young-looking man with long blonde hair, golden eyes and pale skin is staring at me from the couch. “Yes, Lycans do; but werewolves, it’s eighteen.” I answer. “As a Royal, I sense you, I want you,” he starts to walk toward me. This guy has a death wish. “I caught your scent on my father. He must have been close to you.” “You are the D
Patrick’s POV“I need to be there at midnight, but no, the Vamps want a meeting in the morning. What the hell, it will be 7pm by the time we get to Blue Mountain. My canines can’t take it!” I’m angry. It’s her damn birthday tomorrow and the Vampires want a meeting. Not a phone conference, a face-to-face meeting. Apparently, they have some matters to discuss that simply can’t wait.I told them to take it up with the council and was rebuffed. It has to be me, and it has to be tomorrow morning. They can’t come to Blue Mountain, because of some treaty after Liam killed their second prince. So, I have to stay here on her birthday. My canines are actually aching to be deep, deep in her flesh as she screams in pleasure only I can give her. Only I will ever give her.“We will leave as soon as they do,” Marcus assures me. He has Ceylon on his shoulders.Ceylon is visiting with his parents. He likes my office. Blake loves his visits and Marcus loves how much of Cleo he sees in Ceylon’s eyes.“T
Shay’s POV I am smiling and laughing with old friends, when Gina and Zek are in my eye line. They shake hands with our parents and turn away from me. I deserve that. Gina looks more tone, stronger, like she has been really putting in the training time. I can’t help but be proud of her. My nose starts to twitch, I can’t believe what is happening. My wolf is taking over. He’s tall, blond like me, brown eyes, solid jaw, as big as an Alpha but not with an Alpha's aura. Who was it and why is my wolf going crazy? “Mine,” he growls, loud enough that my parents and Gina look over. “A second chance.” “Marcus, you okay man?” Patrick asks. “I have a second chance,” Marcus is gripping my waist hard and possessively. Patrick smiles, “Welcome to Blood Moon, Beta Shay.” My parents darken. Marie is no match for me, if I lose my temper on her she won’t survive. “I think it’s best if a rejection take place,” my mother saids. Marcus gets angry and pulls me closer, “no she is mine. Nothing and
Marie’s POVFour years ago, on my eighteenth birthday, I was marked by a red head, with sexy muscles, a brain that worked sometimes, and a mouth that works overtime. He makes me so mad I want to tear him limb from limb. But he gets me. He loves me in big and small ways. Like today, he is sitting in the blazing sun, wearing a suit, to watch me walk across the stage, as a college graduate.Tonight, we will celebrate privately, because his reversal was a success and I get to tell him about his upcoming heir. He has no idea yet; I’ve been masking my scent.He had to take over the Vampire Territory, they came after my mother. He didn’t leave a single Vampire to carry on. My grandmother was killed by my sister Beth’s Mate, they had a similar situation to me and Patrick, they knew about each other a little too early.There are still a few hybrids with Vamp genes, Patrick is one, and a few in other realms but in this realm, Patrick made full Vampires extinct.My sister is my Beta Female, and
Patrick’s POV“Whoa there!” I say to Devon, Liam, and Charles. They are running down the Alpha Hall toward the playroom. “There is a baby sleeping.”Devon is Shay’s daughter with her former Alpha and visits twice a month.Marie and Brittney gave birth on the same day five years ago to Liam and Charles, the Future Alpha and Beta.“Sorry, Uncle,” Devon said. She is the eldest at eleven and always seems to lead the boys.“Such a silly girl,” Ceylon teases from behind me. He is now 14 and training to be Gamma. His family moved to Blood Moon two years ago, so he could train full time.“Don’t call me that you nitwhit!” Devon spat back.“I’ll call you whatever I want,” Ceylon shot back. “You play with babies all the time.”“It’s better than playing with adults,” she is shaking with anger.“I don’t play, I train; I have an important job one day,” Ceylon looks impressed with himself. Marcus, Blake and I stand back to watch the exchange between Marcus’s stepchildren.“Ohh, Gamma so important, I
Rebecca’s POV “Do we have to go to this? Edward is so scary! I’m sure his mate is going to be scary too,” my brother, Max asks halfway to Mountain Peak Pack. We are going to the Alpha Luna Ceremony for Alpha Edward and his Luna Monica. I trained with her at Blood Moon last year. She is pretty cool. My name is Rebecca Gleeson. I’m eighteen and still unmated. I asked for a year to find my mate organically, before my parents throw a “mating party” and they agreed. I can’t stand the idea of standing there while Alphas, Betas, Warriors, even Omegas sniff me to see if I’m their mate. I’m an Alpha’s daughter, of Green Creek in the Valley between Mountain Peak and Blue Moon. I have already been to Blue Moon, and I’m not fated to anyone there, which is just fine by me, they are kind of a loser pack. If Silver Creek didn’t protect them, they would be wiped out. The Alpha, Christopher, is weak, and his son is near pathetic. I swear, if Alpha Jam
Third Person POVIt’s been 10 years since the goddess promised to leave the Wallace clan alone. Patty finished medical school and started her career. Frank is Alpha and Alex serves as his Beta. The brothers don’t fight, but get along beautifully. Patty even keeps her mouth under control with Alex’s mate.“PattyCake, you okay, babe?” Frank calls, from the bedroom to the bathroom, where his mate and wife have been for a while. “Dr. Patty, what ya doing?”“Hey, Hotdog man,” Patty can’t stop smiling, walking toward Frank on the bed.“That is my least favorite of your nicknames for me,” Frank smiles at her. “What’s in your hand, babe?”“Oh, just a stick, that has pee on it,” Patty straddles her husband, wearing his tee shirt.“Gross, why are you bringing that to bed?”Patty giggles, holding the stick up to Franks eyes.Frank reads the stick, unable to comprehend what he is reading.“Babe, I’m pregnant, you knocked me up!” Patty squeals.Frank looks at the test again and smiles. “We are goin
Patty’s POVG is running so fast Rebecca and I can barely keep up. But I smell him as G rips the dungeon door open. The guards submit immediately since G, Rebecca and I are all sending our auras out. “Wolfsbane on the bars grab those gloves,” G tells me and Rebecca. Rebecca steps back and presses Ike’s mark, he orbs in with Rita and Garrett Sr. Rebecca hands Rita gloves as G unlocks the cell doors. Rita runs to Greyson who holds his mother tight and I see Garrett Sr wrap them both in a hug. G opens the cell where Frank is hanging by silver chains. “Frank,” I yell catching him as G releases him. Rebecca presses Sam’s mark on her and Sam arrives to heal Frank. “PattyCake,” Frank saids and I melt into his chest. We are both crying holding each other on the floor of the cell. “Frankfurter,” I cry holding him. “Alex was under a spell. Susan was a witch.” “Was?” Frank asks. “Yeah, Luca killed her for pointing a gun at me.”“Remind me to thank him.” Frank cups my face and pulls me in
Patty’s POV. When I wake up I look at my phone and Frank’s bed is empty. I disconnect the call and check my texts, nothing. He might have gone training. We talked last night and I’m feeling a slight pull to Lunar Road. “Hey sis,” April smiles as I join them at the breakfast table. “Hey. I need to get to Lunar Road. Marie is going to orb me to Blood Moon, then from The Portal to Lunar Road.” I blurt out. My conversation with Marie just spilling out. “So you are buying him as your fated mate?” Nancy asks. “He felt Austin kiss me, he felt Jern hold my hand In Lycaness. No way he feels those unless he’s fated to me.” I answer. “I want to be near him to feel the bond and etc etc.” April giggles. “Patty is going to be a Luna!” Nancy sings. “Yeah yeah!” I say. “Hello sisters!” Marie orbs to the seat between April and Nancy. “I really hate the orbing power,” Carlos rolls his eyes. “Just be glad we are all on your side,” Marie smiles. “Ready babe?” “Yeah just want to do hugs and
Patty’s POV Cooper River holds a special place for me. First of all, my sisters are Luna’s here. Second of all it’s a greater connection to my triplet, they are cousins with the Alphas. “Hey Beautiful,” Frank answers my call. He is in the office but he still answers me. “Am I interupting?” I ask. “Not at all. Just going over patrol schedules. Are you on Cooper River?” “I’m fifteen minutes away. I just wanted to call.” Frank smirks, “We should try to pleasure each other over the phone?” I see my driver stiffen. “I don’t think my driver wants that kind of show.”Franks smile doesn’t move. “Later then. Tonight on the phone.” I can’t help but giggle. “No you bad boy.” “I’m a perfect angel, baby. Trust me I haven’t hopped a portal and run after you yet. And it is taking some major restraint on my part. How long will you be with Nancy and April?” “I don’t know a week. Cindy wants me to come to Western Hollow while I’m here. She knows I HATE Tabitha, so she said a day trip would b
Patty’s POV“Goodnight, Frank,” I shyly smile.“Goodnight, baby,” he smiles back, and we hang up.“Patrica Wallace why didn’t you tell him you love him too?” Renee is grinning as she scolds me.I pull my knees to my chest as she sits on my bed.“I’m not ready yet,” I say blushing.Renee shakes her head. “You are so stubborn!”I lay back down and fall to sleep with my sister next to me.The morning brings training with Edward, Steven, Kass, and the Advanced Lycan Warriors.“Patty, let’s see what ya got,” Kass says, motioning me over to a large male. “This is Jern; Jern, Patty Wallace. Stances.”Jern smirks at me. “Loser buys dinner?”“Winner gets to pick the place?” I add.“It’s a date.”We fight and he can’t keep up. He’s slow and depends too much on his strength. I get my legs wrapped around his torso and arms around his neck.“Mercy,” he chokes out, as I tighten my grip.“I like steak,” I smile at him.“I’ll pick you up at 7.” He says, taking my hand and kissing it. It felt gross. I
Patty’s POV“Pitty- Pat,” my sister, Renee squeals, as I climb to that tarmac. “You are here! I’m so happy!”Kate is, by far, my favorite sister. Renee is number 3, she doesn’t annoy me, much. Marie is number two because she and I share Patrick’s attention and she never gets jealous.“This place is beautiful,” I comment, at the bright sun and clean greenery everywhere. The airport is in the middle of what looks like a lush rainforest.“Yeah, it’s nice. Come, Steven is waiting for us by the car. He and an old buddy are catching up,” Renee looks radiant.“So, Kate is so in love, she doesn’t care about not getting her Olive Wolf, or powers. What about you?” I ask.“Yeah, I was warned you are considering a chosen mate. I’m totally cool, but I get to be a Lycan, so…”“True.”We giggle, as her mate comes into view. My sister is lucky. Damn, this Lycan is hot!“So, talk to me about Frank,” Renee coos, as Steven drives us to their house.“He is Alex’s brother,” I shrug. “He makes me smile.”“
Patty’s POV When Alex was banished from Lunar Road his mother was sad, but completely understood. I still don’t understand what Frank was trying to prove grabbing my face. He can’t be my second chance. I mean I enjoy him, his company, oh and his kiss. My wolf is still not ready to accept a mate. She loved Alex so much. We can’t feel or sense any mates. I feel empty without the ability I have prized since I was a small child. Marie has orbed us home and the first people I see are my sister Kate and her human mate Tammy. “You look great to have been through a rejection. You think if I reject Kate the two of you could help together?” Tammy jokes. She is a laugh through it type person. And honestly to live with Kate, she doesn’t have a choice but to be that way. “Ignore her ass,” Kate says hugging me. “What does ice cream and sappy movies not sound good to you?” I laugh. “Honestly, I’m glad Frank and I had each other. We got through the worse of it.” “And you are sure you didn’t
Franks’s POVMy instinct is to grab my mate and hold her close, to comfort her. But, she still doesn’t see me as her mate. I have to keep my distance in public.“Let’s get this over with,” Dad says, calling order.The elders already have the footage from the conference room, where it all went down.Patty and I are forced to watch our mates make out with each other in front of the gathered assembly.When I watch Alex slap Patty’s face, I want to bash his face in. I see Uncle G also stiffen, as if restraining himself. Alpha Patrick, his Beta Marcus, G’s Beta Alec, and all of her sisters look deadly.Once the video is over, the Elders turn to Alex.“What do you have to say for yourself?” The Elder asks.Alex looks smug, “Susan and I have been in love for three years. We began having an affair before she was mated. Once she mated to my brother, I will admit she cooled on me. I would get a pity make out session, every now and again to appease me. But, she refused to have sex with me anymor
Patty’s POVI don’t wake up to the sun. Instead, I wake up to kisses.I moan, which seems to encourage the lips to continue.“Give me a hickie, and I’ll kill you,” I say.“But, I’m your mate, and you are mine. All mine forever,” I look up and see Alex’s face. His right hand is deformed from where I crushed it.“How did you get in here?” I ask, trying to move away from him.“I just came for what’s mine,” Alex pins me against a wall, as I catch sight of my bed. Frank is laying in a pool of blood. “I removed you from him, before killing him. Couldn’t have my mate covered in blood. Not until I’ve had my way with you.”“Stop,” I yell, and I try to get away.“Nothing can stop me. I’ll take you, then I’ll kill you,” Alex hisses and tries to stab me with a needle.Wait, I don’t feel any pain. He has me pinned, but no pain. This isn’t real. It’s a nightmare. Wake up, wake up, wake up!“Baby, baby, you are okay,” Frank’s voice is breaking through. “PattyCake, wake up it’s okay.”When I finally
