Alpha Zach’s POV
“What I will bring? What does that even mean?” she huffs at me
“I did not get a chance to find out, Kayden called me”
She turns her back on me, clearly annoyed with my answer
Even though I had figured things out about Charlie’s father, I was not certain I could tell her, well not yet anyway. How would finding out that she is half vampire help her? Or finding out that the man who raised and abused her was not her real father.
Not only that, Sophia dropped some pretty heavy news on me about Charlie’s birth father which I needed time to process.
It was obvious that a vampire had killed one of my packs men, they were the only ones to rip out throats like that, the problem was that when a vampire is using their speed ability, only another vampire can see them. It would have been how they got onto my land unseen, yet Charlie saw them.
Kayden knew this little fact about vampires and
Charlie’s POVI’m not even sure what made me do it, the sudden urge to run away from it all. Maybe it was the news that I was part vampire, or the fact that Alpha Zach is clearly in love with me but as I grab my suitcase, I purposely hit him with it as I walk by and go to his office. As much as I wanted to go home, right now I didn’t want to be alone.Sinking down onto the rug, the heat from the fire warms my skin, Kayden had been right about it being much colder here and as much as I didn’t want to admit it, I didn’t have the right clothes for this weather.As I sit staring into the fire, a blanket is draped over my shoulders and when I look up I find Alpha Zach smiling at me, he doesn't speak and heads to his desk, concentrating on the paperwork that was piled high.Every so often I would steal a glance at him, the light of the fire gave him an ominous look but in the daylight he looked so different, his eyes oddly dark but
Alpha Zach’s POVWhy oh why did I schedule meetings for today?Especially with Charlie here, I tried to change some of them around but I had put off dealing with the Lycan school on my land for some time. There were problems between a couple of the students and the teachers seemed no longer capable of dealing with the issues.As I shower I hear Charlie stir, it wasn’t exactly an ideal situation having her sleep in my room but considering she locked the door to her bedroom and then climbed out the window, it was the only suitable option.I made sure to sleep on the futon in my room, it was not exactly the greatest night of sleep, mostly because any time Charlie stirred, I was up and ready to protect her but she was mostly just having horrible dreams and most likely about what she had seen by the words she was muttering.It was highly amusing finding her with the duvet wrapped completely around her, just her cute little face poking out, a
Charlie’s POVHanging out with Ally was interesting, she really was a good laugh and it was nice to listen to her as she showed me around the grounds, although I was annoyed to hear that Alpha Zach had other girls in his room I don’t tell her as much, thankfully she talks so much that I didn’t really need to speak.We are near the forest where I had seen that thing kill one of Alpha Zach's men and she looks at me“Is it true you saw it?”I nod my head“You saw a vampire?”I wasn’t sure what she was getting at but she flicks her blue hair from her face and smiles at me“That must have been fucked up”I frown at her, I didn’t like curse words but I don’t say anything for all I know it might be common practice around here, although I hadn’t heard Alpha Zach use them.I don't tell her about what Alpha Zach told me, I was still trying to accept it m
Alpha Zach’s POV“She is missing? Like actually missing?”I nod my head“How?, I don’t understand, it’s a bit coincidental isn’t it. I come and she suddenly goes missing”She was not wrong but whoever this vampire was, he seemed to be looking for Sophia too.“Charlie, I have my men on it now, they are scouring the house and will report back with any findings”She folds her arms across her chest, her blue grey eyes focussing on me but she was not directly looking at me, it was almost like she could not look me in the eye and when I think about it, she has never looked me directly in the eye, more like she was looking through me.“Do you expect them to find anything?”She was always so direct with her questions, never skirting the issue, she would make a fine Queen when she is ready.I shake my head because honestly, no I did not expect my men to find
Charlie’s POV The realisation that the vampire was after me was just too much and the tears start streaming from my eyes. I couldn't help it, nor could I stop them and I turn to the only person that I know and bury my face into his shirt, my arms gripping my waist. I wouldn’t have normally but I just wanted to be held and thankfully Alpha Zach didn’t reject me. When I open my eyes, I’m confused at first and it takes a second for me to work out that I am back in my room and I sigh, this was becoming a weird habit and I really needed to stop falling asleep. There was some sort of commotion going on downstairs and I carefully open the door and listen in on what is being yelled, I could just make out Alpha Zach with his arms folded, his biceps bulging in his shirt sleeves. They were talking about me, accusing me of murder, demanding to know who I was and why I was targeting their pack. They were also asking Alpha Zach why he would bring someone li
Alpha Zach’s POV“Why did you tell her?”“I’m sorry, Look, I didn’t know she was Sophia’s daughter, how was I supposed to know when you never tell me anything”He folds his arms over his chest, refusing to look at me, typical bloody teenager“It should have come from me” I sigh, she should never have found out this way“How many more times Zach, I am sorry”It was not Adam who I was angry with, it was myself, the news of Sophia should have come from me and only me. The only problem was now she had no reason to stay.“Why has she got you so worked up?”I glare at my brother“Shit, you’re mated to her aren’t you?”“Mind your language”He rolls his eyes at me, come on bro, catch up with the twenty first century, everyone swears”I shake my head at him in annoyance“S
Charlie’s POV“Get off of me”“Shut up”I struggle against the man holding me, Ally was completely out of it and already face down on the floor of the room the vampire was trying to put me in“Hold still or I will rip your throat out too”It was a weak threat and I continued to fight against him, I could just use my magic but then I would be revealing more about myself and I couldn’t risk that yet, besides he was only man handling me at the moment and I might need my magic further down the line.‘We need to get out of here’‘I know Gypsy but its not that simple, I have no idea where here is and besides I can’t leave Ally’The vampire drops me and I roll across the floor but before I get a chance to have a go at him, the door was slammed shut and a key turns in the lock.Clearly he was stupid and didn’t know anything
Alpha Zach’s POV“For fucks' sake”“What is it Alpha, what have you found?”“It’s the vampire, he was here”“The one who killed Kendal and Sophia?”I nod my head“No, no, this cannot be happening, I cannot lose Ally. Why would he take them both”“I do not know but we cannot lose the Queen. Kayden there is something you need to know but you cannot and I mean cannot tell anyone, do you understand?”He nods his head, his eyes wide with fear“Charlie is half vampire”“You are telling me that our new Queen, the girl you are madly in love with is a half breed”“Yes”“But, how is that even possible and why the hell did you bring her here?”“Firstly I do not know how it was possible and secondly she is our Queen”There was no other reason“

She was awake and we stay laid on our backs, turning our heads to face each other, her eyes were red and black, the grey colour long gone but I didn’t care, she was here with me and she could hear and see me.“How do you feel?”I didn’t tell her that she had no magic anymore, I wanted to make sure she understood what had happened. I wanted her to know that Zach was definitely dead.“The magic is gone isn’t it?” she whispers quietly“How do you know?”“I can feel it, or lack of it. The constant bubbling has gone”Charlie had never described it in that way before and I wondered if that was what had been causing the panic attacks, the constant feeling of something inside of her. She hadn’t had an attack since she had been with me or maybe Zach had somehow causing them with his magic, so he could kiss her and make her think only he could make her feel better.I wipe t
As I kneel by Charlie I stare around in shock.He was dead, he was really dead. Zach’s bloodied limbs were scattered all around and I kick his head away from Charlie and I. I didn’t want to see him, any of him. The battle with him was finally over. After everything I did, everything Charlie had done, it had taken the hybrids to collectively work together to bring him down. Charlie was free, we were all free.I could hear her heartbeat fine and I check her neck, I wanted to see if his mark was still there. It was fading before my eyes and I hear Matthew gasp next to me.“Their marks, they are fading” he breathes a sigh of relief.He couldn’t believe it, he looked all over Alice’s legs and feet just in case he had missed it but just like Charlie’s, hers was gone and so was Eva’s.“Why are they not moving?” I try not to sound franticHe shakes his head at me “I don’t know,
Everyone was oddly calm including Charlie. Everyone except myself.Charlie had just told us the news we had been waiting for and i could not understand how everyone was so calm.Could Zach have known this was going to happen? Could he have planned for Charlie and her sisters to all be in place? It seemed impossible and yet possible at the same time. Zach had kept many secrets from everyone, and they were slowly unravelling but on his terms and we needed to change that.“I will meet him” Matthew suggests, and I shake my head.The last thing we needed Zach knowing is that we had the first hybrid in existence in my pack.“No, I will wait in the forest for him. I need you to watch over Charlie”He frowns at me, telling me that it was too risky for me to go out there in my state. With Jett back I was feeling stronger than ever. I may not look it, but I felt great.“It should be me” Charlie pipes up from
A couple of days had passed, and Charlie trained with Matthew every second she could, even when he told her to rest, she wouldn’t, or she couldn’t sit still. She was determined to succeed.He trained her mentally and physically but would not tell me what was involved. She had accepted her role as mine and the packs Luna, it was the only way for everyone to communicate with her, particularly Matthew and she needed all the help he could offer.Her sisters had not restored her hearing or sight yet because they needed to be certain that Charlie could hold the block and at the moment it was Jett and me. Her skills were growing massively but her mind still felt weak.Charlie was now able to move through the forest alone and without making a single sound, her feet touching the ground in silence as she moved. It was like she had tuned into nature, she even made it from the pack house to the training area alone yesterday and that is not an easy walk. Matthew
“It is not going to be easy”Matthew tries to warn me, but I had already thought about that and tell him just as much“And I am not even sure that it is possible for a wolf to do succeed in what I have achieved with Alice”Again, I nod my head, I understood what he was trying to say to me. It was his way of explaining that it might fail but if I do not try then we will never know.“You will get one option Alpha Max. You have to get into her head quicker than him, almost barricade her mind from his”“When and how?”“When she starts waking. At the moment she is unconscious. He can’t get in her mind whilst she is out of it, the wolfsbane in her system is too strong. The moment she starts waking will be your chance and your only chance. It will take all of your energy Alpha and if it fails, there will be no second chance!”We watch Charlie and her body does not move except
Hey everyone, I hope you are all well and I want to thank you so much for reading up until now, I really appreciate it and it keeps me motivated to write. However I just wanted to let you all know that I will be taking a few days off due to unforeseen personal problems but I promise not to keep you all waiting to long, the end is near and I hope you will all be happy with how the story ends after all the sadness that Max and Charlie have suffered. Take care and I will try and get back as soon as possible x Taylor West
I just sit and watch her. Pain is etched on Charlie’s face as she fights to keep the block up. People come and go, mostly to speak to me or Anna but I wasn’t interested. I just wanted to find a way to help Charlie break from his grasp on her.Matthew comes to find me at one point, but he frowns when he sees Charlie “What is she doing?”“She is blocking Zach”He stands by me and watches her like I do“Why are you here Matthew?”“I did come to speak to you, but now I am interested in why she is suddenly able to block him”“Alexander spurred her on”“Your deceased brother?”“That’s the one”Matthew does not speak he just nods his head with a surprised look on his face.“What did you want to speak to me about?”“I would like to offer my services”“You are already helping&rdq
She walks silently alongside me her fingers laced with my own. She doesn’t stumble or trip in the forest like she knows where she is going, but her fear was unmistakable. It exuded from her and even when I ask her she just tells me that everything is fine, but it wasn’t. Not only could I sense it coming from her, but I also felt her fear too and it wasn’t me that she was afraid of.I find myself stood in front of the packhouse, not the place I was expecting to be and I must have stopped abruptly because Charlie asks me what’s happening.“We are at the pack house?!”I wasn’t questioning Charlie, I was questioning myself, I thought we were further away than this and closer to the hospital.Charlie frowns at me “They built you a new packhouse?”“They did”She reaches her hand out and I guide her forward a little. As she holds her hand against the door she smiles but doesn’t
