Alex's POVA cold dread settled in my gut as I thought hard. This wasn’t just an attack on the pack. I noticed the head of the Rogues howled like a signal to the rest and they immediately retreated. I stood and stared at the aftermath of the battle. My breathing was heavy and my body trembled with exhaustion. I saw the bodies of familiar faces. Some were wounded and some dead, they were all scattered around. Some people were trying to put out the fires in their homes. The tension of the chaos was still in the air. My mind was racing and trying to put the pieces of the attack together. Normally, Rogues try to attack packs when they know the pack is at its weakest. But this attack had been too coordinated, mostly Rogues were always irrational and didn't go by rules. They took us unaware and bypassed all the security set in place. They knew we were vulnerable, still mourning the death of our Alpha and the Alpha died without an heir. “Check for survivors,” I heard Gamma Hilliard comman
Alex's POVI was back in the battle, my paws were bloody. I could hear wailing around me and some familiar pack members trying to reach out to me crying for help. I had wounds of different claw marks and my fur was stained with my own blood. I tried to transform but my wolf was gone and my body felt heavy. A Rogue was coming close in an attempt to cut me open with its claws. I tried to call for help but my voice wasn't audible. The wolf came closer and suddenly it transformed into a human form. I was shocked to see Alpha Kane's face, he was in blood rage, his face twisted into pure evil. I woke up with my heart racing, my bedsheets were drenched in sweat.By morning, we had received the call to gather at the burial ground by nightfall. The message was clear: we had to say our final goodbyes to those who had fallen, especially the four elders who died during the Rogue attack. The pack was quiet, and this ceremony was meant to bring us together, to honor the dead. I dressed in black l
Alex's POV I walked away not minding I was leaving them hanging without a response. I didn't want to create a scene. I wouldn't want the few pack members left to know what was happening in my family. The pack was still in tension. Everyone was fully alert. The pack was now on lockdown since the Rogue attack, with no one in or out, every entrance guarded. The sudden attack had shaken us to our core, and the fear of another attack might happen again.I sat in my room, staring at the walls, the silence was all I needed to think clearly. My thoughts kept returning to Alexis, to the last time I saw her before she was taken. The helplessness I felt ate at me, a constant reminder that I’d failed to protect her. Now, with the pack on lockdown, it felt like my hands were tied even tighter.I needed to do something or anything to keep myself from overthinking. That’s when I thought of Anton. He was the only one I trusted enough to confide in, the only one who might be able to help me find a w
Alexis’ POVThe day went by and it all felt the same. I was stuck in this tiny room with no way out of it. The walls felt like they were closing in on me. The loneliness and silence were kicking in really hard, except for the occasional footsteps outside. I had no idea how long I'd been trapped, it could have been days or weeks because I didn't even try to keep track of time. When the first maid brought me food, I tried to talk to her but she just looked at me as if she had words to say but she couldn't voice them out and left without saying a word. Every day, different maids brought me food. But none of the maids ever spoke. I was desperate for communication as loneliness was eating me away.Today was no different. The maid, a different one this time, entered the room quietly, carrying a tray with what I assumed was lunch. The scent of the food was meant to entice me but it did nothing. I was too tired, too drained mentally to care. “Please,” I whispered, “Are we in the Alpha's hou
Alpha Kane’s POVI made my way to my private chambers, my study room to be precise. The memories of Alexis' struggles were playing in my mind and I can’t help but smile. I love women who like to struggle or act like they can’t be submissive to me. I can’t wait to have her, taste her and fondle her breast. She was mine now and I’m not in a rush to have her. I want to break her and make her submissive to me first. She has a curvy figure, with slender hips and waist that I can’t help but imagine my hands around it while I pull her closer. Her bust was full and round. She has a lip that is so inviting and her eyes sparkled like diamonds. She is beautiful. I got to my study room and sat on my chair. I tried to focus on past events that had happened and things going on in the pack yet my mind kept drifting back to Alexis. Despite everything that had happened, I couldn’t help but smile at the memory of what happened in the room she was in. Her stubbornness, her fire, and the way she had la
Richard's POVThe meeting room was silent. There were few murmurs of conversation within the elders but in a very low voice. The recent rogue attack had shaken everyone, and with the deaths of several elders, the pack was more vulnerable than it had been in years. Two rogue attacks in just a few months. I sat close to Elder Joseph close to the door and watched as Beta Conor, Zeta Jamie, and Gamma Hilliard came in and took their seats at the large, oval table. We all knew we had to name a new Alpha as soon as possible. The council knows the pack can't survive without a new Alpha with the threat of more rogue attacks. Rogues and rival packs like targeting packs that were vulnerable like ours. Especially knowing the fact that our pack, Shadow Pack, was one of the wealthiest packs around. The land was fertile, we had Precious stones and the pack business that has been built for generations. I and Julia had been making plans for a long while to make Alex the Alpha of this Pack but he was
Alex's POVThe basement walls seemed to close in around me as I was punching hard at the punching bag. The hitting of my fists echoed in the room, the result of the relentless thoughts that had been keeping me awake for days. Every hit was fueled by the image of Alexis, taken forcefully by Alpha Kane. The thought of her alone, scared, and in danger made my blood boil. I hadn’t slept properly since that day, the day he took her from me. Sweat dripped down my brow, stinging my eyes, but I didn’t care. I felt the burn in my muscles, the ache in my bones. It was working at distracting me from the fear that I might lose her forever. The punching bag swayed at every hit, its chains rattling, but I kept going. This was the only way I could channel the anger, the frustration that had been building up inside me, threatening to explode.The sound of my fist hitting the bag was still echoing through the room, sharp and clear, like the ringing of a bell. It didn't help me much because my thought
Richard's POV I always knew Alex could be bossy, sensitive and impatient when things weren't going his way, but I never knew he was this stupid. Acting up like a kid whose candy was taken. Barging into the council meeting just like that was an idiotic move. He keeps sniffling around trying to uncover secrets of the past. He was going to ruin a plan that had been in motion for years now. I left him and walked back to the Meeting room.I pushed open the door to the meeting room, the familiar creak of the old wood somehow more irritating than usual. The meeting was still going on, and the tension in the air was pretty obvious. I could feel the eyes of the elders' gazes on me as I stepped back inside, the door closing behind me with a dull thud. Elder Joseph was in the middle of a sentence. “...but the question remains: who is best suited to lead our pack through this crisis? We can’t afford to make the wrong decision.”I took my seat, nodding at Joseph to acknowledge his point. But int
Alex's POVA month laterI was relaxing at home after training when Alpha Mark sent for me. I sat on the porch of the cabin I shared with Alexis, sipping a cup of coffee.Alexis was back from work. She had been trained on how to teach young pups basic things since she had always loved to have kids around her. She was reading a novel beside me on the porch. We had been through a lot and thought we had found a life here. A new beginning, we called it. Away from our parent's tainting.The sound of footsteps approaching us made us alert and turned to the direction. I looked up to see Killian, a pack member of Greenwolf walking towards the cabin. Killian was a newfound friend that we both got to be a lover of the game.“Good afternoon,” he greeted with a smile.“Hello Alexis, looking beautiful as always,” he teased Alexis as he always did.“You've come to get your ass whooped as usual,” I joked. We both played soccer around this time of the day. “Don't get over your head, I might just co
Alexis's POV He groaned, his tongue slipping into my mouth again. His hand glided over my shirt and he pushed back, kneeling in-between my legs as he unbuttoned his shirt, while I pulled my top over my head. I felt Alex's hand grip the waistband of my pants. I lifted my butt so he could remove them and he dropped them off by the side of the bed before staring down at me.Tyson kissed me gently, his lips moving against mine and he sucked my lower lip in his mouth. Sparks rush over my skin when grinded his hips against mine. His erection pressing against me and I gasp at the feel of the sparks rushing over my skin straight to my pussy.His lips devouring mine as he tastes every inch of my mouth, his tongue demanding as it fights mine for dominance which I let him have. His hand moved down my side and he growled against my lips when he cupped my breast. I rolled my hips against him, my hand moving down his chest and abs to pants. I pushed it down a little, his dick now free as he took o
Chapter 130Alexis's POVTwo Weeks LaterLiving here in the Greenwolf pack these past weeks has been incredible and one of the best things that’s ever happened to me since Alpha Kane kidnapped me to the Nightwolf pack months back. It's been peaceful. The shadows of Julia and Richard lurking in the shadows no longer loomed over us. Their punishment was out of our hands now, with the council in charge. All that mattered to me was that Alex and I could finally move forward without looking over our shoulders. Alpha Kane was dead too and the new Alpha was in no way interested in us. I leaned against Alex’s shoulder as we sat curled up in the living room of the house we’d been given, watching a movie. I had never imagined that after everything, we would find peace in such a simple way. I glanced up at him, taking in the relaxed smile on his face. He pulled me closer in between his laps, placed my head gently on his chest and I felt my heart skip a beat. “Do you like the movie?” I asked s
Alex's POVThe Next DayAs I stood in front of the Shadow Pack’s central gathering hall. I had an important task at hand. Exposing my parents' horrible deeds.The thought twisted my stomach. It wasn't an easy task but I knew it was something I had to do. It was time everyone else knew what they've been up to eventually and I would never want to be caught as an accomplice covering up their evil acts. Alexis stood beside me, her hand gripping mine tightly. Her presence was a reminder of what was important, of why I had to do this. We had both been victims of my parents' twisted ambitions. She had been kidnapped, just like me, raised in lies and manipulated for power.After the fight settled, I had called Beta Conor to inform the elders and pack members that I would love to address everyone before the coronation day. Beta Conor didn't question me since I was going to be the new Alpha. He knew he had to do whatever I wanted so he didn't get on my bad side. The elders were inside, along
Alex’s POVThe Moonlight was meant to make the atmosphere peaceful on a normal circumstances but today its gives an unsettling feeling to the turmoil within me. The air was thick with tension, and I could feel the weight of it pressing down on me. My heart pounded in my chest at the thought of what we were about to do and the danger it holds.Battleground isn’t on my favorite places to be and have been doing more of it this past few months. As I crouched behind the tree line, I glanced over at the fighters from the Greenwolf pack who had come to help me. I looked into their face and the realization that I was bring some of them to their graves dawned on me. Yet, they knew what was at stake. My eyes scanned the area ahead, and I could see the goons guarding the place where Alexis was being held. Alpha Kane was here, his car with the his pack's crest was packed outside and so were his warriors. I gritted my teeth. A big coincidence to be here say night he's here as well. Thank the Mo
Alpha Kane’s POVSitting in my office, I stared out the window at the night sky. My thoughts raced, circling back to the one thing I couldn’t stop thinking about, Alexis. It been weeks since she left. The Elders are now growing impatient, constantly asking where Alexis was and when the Luna ceremony would finally take place. I had tried my best to come up different excuses like telling them she was visiting her parents, but I knew that lie wouldn’t hold up much longer.Richard told me she was back to the pack but he didn't wants to bring her back right away so he can put Alex under control but now he had called.Alexis was being held at the outskirts of the Shadow Pack. He said I could come and get her.That smug bastard. Richard had been playing me from the beginning. He had promised me Alexis as a term for our alliance and I had no choice but to take her as my Luna, despite knowing she wasn’t my mate. Richard had later revealed while we were searching for they that Alexis and Alex
Alexis’s POVIt had been a few hours since Alex left the house. He went to see Anton in town. After much thought about what to do, we felt the right thing is to bring in someone more powerful and influential. I wasn’t sure what was making me feel so uneasy, but the nagging sense that something wasn’t right refused to leave me. Maybe it was because of what happened the last time he left me alone in the house or it was just the after-effects of everything I had been through in the past few months. Whatever it was, I couldn't shake it.I tried to distract myself by checking through reels online. But none of it helped. Then, I heard the front door open. I went outside, expecting to see Alex but instead, standing in the doorway were Julia and Richard. “Lexis, how are you doing sweet?” Julia asked, with a sweet smile as she walked towards me.“I'm okay,” I said, turning my back to leave.“What of Alex?” Richard asked, scanning around with his eyes.“Out to get things,” I responded quickly
Alexi's POV A few days later, I was summoned to the Council meeting. They told me they've consulted the pack shaman and a date will be picked soon for the Alpha's coronation. I might not be able to undergo the necessary training. They want to hasten the whole process. I sat in the room and I couldn't help but wonder how the Elders would react when they found out my parents had been orchestrating and manipulating lots of things going on in this pack. Richard expected to make a move during the meeting but I said nothing and after the meeting, I slipped out to avoid unnecessary talks. I knew after I left, there would be other talks between the elders so I made my way home quickly. Julia was busy. She was in charge of getting the whole thing needed for the coronation.On getting home, without wasting any more time, I grabbed my things and made my way back to the Greenwolf Pack. The drive felt like it took forever. I kept imagining Alexis in some cold, dark place, held prisoner because o
Alex's POV “Fuck,” I banged the steering wheel. All hopes were dashed when my instincts told me I was being followed. Meeting Alpha Mark was meant to be a secret but unfortunately they knew I was up to something now. We've been portraying the good children since we went back to Shadow Pack and tried to uncover things in secret. We've looked for clues at home when our parents weren't around. Checked out their study room and the documents but nothing. After Ophelia said every lead she gets has been a long list of dead people, I knew this was out of my hands and my parents were too influenced, the more reason I had to involve Alpha Mark. Now I'm being followed which says a lot. Whoever was following me must be working for my parents or Alpha Kane, yet Alpha Kane will still have to report back to Richard. I stepped on the accelerator and drove faster, turning in different directions, to confirm the black sedan car was trailing after me and I was right, it took every turn I took as wel
