Lucas

As the cold steel of the handcuffs tightened around my wrists, I knew I was in trouble. The authorities had finally caught up to me, and I was being transported to the maximum-security prison, a place I never thought I'd end up. The dark, grimy van rumbled along the desolate road, my heart pounding in my chest.

I glanced around at enforcers who were tasked to take me to the prison unharmed, I couldn't help but feel angry that those idiots were the one who got me caught and my son was with them, that ungrateful child, after everything I did for him, he decided to betray me because I hit him a few times, how sad.

Did he think running a pack was that easy? Every crime I committed was for the benefit of the pack, so who are they to judge me, I thought to myself as we hit a bump and the van rattled like it was going to break into pieces.

As the van continued down the dark road, I whispered to myself, "To think I would be caught like this." Then the next thing I knew, one of the enf

    Drake The air was tense, and the room buzzed with hushed conversations among the personnel. Something was wrong, terribly wrong. I could sense it in the frantic energy that hung in the air.I approached the head of the royal guard. He was hunched over a monitor, his fingers flying across the keyboard. His face was etched with worry, and he barely looked up when I arrived."Carter, what's going on?" I asked, my voice firm as he immediately looked up, almost falling out of his chair as he tried to greet me"Your Majesty," he bowed as he made way for me to sit"You haven't answered my question. What is going on? Why is this place in chaos?" I asked.He finally tore his eyes away from the screen to meet mine, and his expression told me everything I needed to know. I was right. Something was definitely wrong."I don't have all day," I snapped as a growl left my lips, causing him to flinch back in fear"Your Majesty, new on Alpha Lucas came in this morning," he said, his voice trembling, "

    DrakeAs I tightened my grip on the steering wheel, my heart pounded in my chest. The rain splattered against the windshield, and I could feel the tension in the car growing with each passing second. In the backseat, Zelda, Madeline, and Jake exchanged anxious glances, their faces reflecting the uncertainty of our situation. We were all on edge, hoping that the safe house would provide the safety we so desperately needed while the search for Alpha Lucas was still going on."Are you guys okay back there?" I asked as Zelda was about to answer there was a loud blast before smoke covered the air. My gut told me something terrible was going to happen as pure adrenaline surged through my veins as fear gripped my heart. My hands gripped the steering wheel with white-knuckled intensity, and my racing thoughts screamed for safety. "Hold on!" I yelled, my voice trembling with a mix of panic and determination. The shattered windshield left me vulnerable to the dangers outside but I didn't care.

    Lucas As I stood there, gazing out of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the penthouse I was currently being held in, the neon lights of the cityscape below seemed to twinkle like stars in the night sky. But despite the beauty outside, I couldn't help but think about the storm of emotions swirling within me.Suddenly, my phone buzzed on the glass table nearby, and I walked over to pick it up. Recognizing the phone number, I immediately picked it up. The mission must have gone well if they're calling me by this time, which means if Drake and his companions are dead, I can roam the streets as a free man."Alpha Lucas," her voice crackled through the other side of the phone, "we have a situation."Okay, judging from her tone, something was definitely wrong. I clenched my jaw, knowing that when Vega used those words, it was never good news. "What's happened?" I asked as a frown formed on my face as i stared at the mirror in front of me"Drake and his companions," she said, her tone heavy w

    Drake As I walked further into the forest, I felt like I was being watched, then suddenly a figure emerged from the darkness of the forest, and I immediately recognized him as Jackson, the ruthless assassin who works for Alpha Lucas. His eyes gleamed behind that black mask he usually wore."He really wants me dead if he sent you" I said as Jackson chuckled softly "So you've heard of me, I'm flattered" Jackson said as a huge grin formed on his face as he stared at me, I needed to be careful with him, he was stronger than the other guys Lucas that bastard had sent before."Every wolf as heard of you, the Red wolf of massacre, you show no mercy to your targets but you refrain from killing children" I said and his amused gaze fell on me"I feel bad, you know more about me than I know about you Drake, Alpha Lucas gave me some information but there were substantial" he said as he took a step towards me"I'm a private person" I shrugged causing him to laugh out loud "If we met under diffe

    DrakeAs the rain continued to pour, Alex and I made sure that Jackson, the injured assassin, remained trapped and unable to escape. He shot us an angry glare, his face contorted with pain. Raindrops fell onto my face as I exchanged a knowing look with Alex. We both understood the formidable challenge that lay ahead - extracting vital information from this relentless operative."Let's find a quiet spot for questioning," I told Alex, my voice resolute. Given Jackson's extensive training and resistance to torture, we knew we had to be ruthless in our approach.Together, we escorted Jackson through the rain-soaked forest, our footsteps echoing in the silence. We needed answers urgently, and time was not on our side.Since taking him to a traditional interrogation room wasn't an option, we brought him to the cabin we had previously used to evade Alpha Lucas's men. Securing Jackson to a chair, we watched as the ominous shadow of the setting sun deepened the tension in the room.Alex and I

    Lucas I walked through the dimly lit corridor of our secret headquarters, the weight of my recent decision bearing down on my shoulders like a heavy stone. As I approached the oak door at the end that belonged to the office of the boss, my heart pounded with a mixture of anxiety and fear. I knew that this meeting would not be pleasant because Jackson had failed to eliminate Drake, and the boss had already heard about it. Only if Jackson had finished the job, I wouldn't be standing here now, dreading what comes next.I knocked twice and heard a gruff voice from within, "Enter."I pushed the door open and stepped into the office of my boss, a stern and unforgiving figure known as Sandwick. He was a man of few words but had an uncanny ability to see through people and look into their very soul "Alpha Lucas, have a seat." With a scowl on his face Sandwick said as I immediately obeyed, taking a chair across from his massive oak desk not wanting to piss him off than he already was, my gaz

  • My Father My Mate    Finally Over

    DrakeAlpha Lucas is quite foolish if he believes he can catch me off guard. I was aware of his plans long before he considered reporting to his boss. You see, we had bugged the phone that Jackson gave him, and someone as suspicious as Alpha Lucas would carry such evidence with him. So, we were able to overhear his plans to attack us, and now we are actively preparing in response. But first I had to tell the rest about my plans to take on Alpha Lucas alone because this was personal Gathering Zelda, Madeline, and Jake in the living room took only seconds, I felt the tension in the air. I took a deep breath before addressing them, "Listen, guys, we've got the upper hand here. I've known about Alpha Lucas's plans for a while now, thanks to that bugged phone Jackson gave him.""Okay so where is this going?" Jake asked his suspicious gaze fell on me "So I think I should be the one to take him out" i said and they all stared at me with a confused expression "What do you mean?" Madeline a

    JakeAs I stood in the center of the clearing, the cool, crisp scent of the surrounding pine trees enveloped me, their fragrance mixing with the earthy undertones of damp soil. The towering pines formed a natural shade, their thick trunks stretching skyward like ancient sentinels. Sunlight filtered through the dense canopy, casting dappled shadows that danced on the forest floor.The atmosphere was tense, a heavy weight pressing down on my shoulders as I glanced around at the assembled members of the Slivertail pack. Wolves of various sizes and colors stood in a tight circle, their expressions a mixture of disgust and anger. Their eyes were fixed on my father Alpha Lucas, the man that had betrayed us, we were all waiting for the trial of the century that would mark a turning point in our pack's history.I took a deliberate, deep breath, the scent of pine needles filling my nostrils, as if nature itself were lending me strength.

    DrakeThree years later.I stood at the grave, my hands clutching the flowers I had brought. My kids stood beside me, their eyes fixed on the stone before them. I took a deep breath, clearing my throat. “Owen looks exactly like you,” I said, my voice quivering. “I know you're not here, but occasionally I believe you are.” I paused, my eyes hard as I looked at my kids. “He's as strong as you are. He's selfless, just like you. You would have loved him.” The words hung in the air, heavy with emotion.“Sometimes it's difficult to believe that you're not here with us, that I won't ever hear your voice again or feel your touch. Sometimes I think it's all a nightmare, that I'll wake up and everything will be like it was before. But I never do. The truth is, life without you is hard. I find it hard to trust anyone, to open up to anyone. “My kids ran off, giggling as they chased each other through the grass. I got up to follow them, making sure they didn't go too far. As I walked over to whe

    ZeldaNine Months Later.I looked in the mirror, my eyes drawn to the slight bulge in my belly. I placed my hand on my stomach, feeling the life within. It was a strange sensation, one that filled me with both joy and fear. I was growing, my body changing, my life changing. But I was still me, still whole. And that was all that mattered to me. I traced my fingers over my cheeks, feeling the slight swelling of my nose. Drake said I looked beautiful, but I couldn't see it. All I saw was a monster. But he loved me anyway.He still wasn't happy that I was keeping the pregnancy, but I knew in my heart that this was the right decision. I wanted to have this child, to give Drake the heir he deserved. He might not have needed it, but the pack did. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for the challenge ahead. I could do this. I could be strong for both myself and my child. I placed my hand on my stomach again, feeling the flutter of new life within. And I smiled.The door to my room burst o

    ZeldaI couldn't tell how long I'd been unconscious, but when I opened my eyes, my head was pounding. I struggled to sit up, but someone helped me, supporting my weight. I looked up, and my heart sank. It was Drake. His expression was unreadable, and I was unable to remember the last time he had smiled. “Where's my family?” I asked, my voice breaking. I was afraid of the answer. “The doctor had asked that we give you some space,” he said. I nodded, my mind racing. He was staring at me with a strange look in his eyes, and I knew something was wrong. “What is it?” I asked, my heart in my throat. “Nothing,” he said, his voice monotone. I knew he was lying. We'd known each other for too long. He knew I could see right through him. I waited, the silence weighing on me like a heavy blanket. “Just tell me,” I said, my voice shaking. He let out a long sigh. “You're pregnant,” he said, his voice low and serious. My jaw dropped, and I looked down at my stomach. “I thought about what the

    ZeldaI heard footsteps approaching, and my heart leapt into my throat. A guard appeared, a limp body slung over his shoulder. He dropped the body on the floor, and I held my breath, dreading what I would see. The guard stood back, his face pale. “He's dead,” he said, his voice flat. I forced myself to take a step forward, my knees shaking. I knelt beside the body, my hands trembling as I reached out to touch it. I pulled back the blood-stained cloak, revealing the face of Jake.“Jake, the Fierce,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “Don't do this. You can't leave like this.” I reached out to touch his cold cheek, my hands shaking. I looked down at him, my heartbreaking as I took in his broken body. “Please… please don't go.” I cradled his body in my arms, my tears falling like rain.My mother rushed to my side, her arms wrapping around me. “Shh, my dear. Be strong,” she murmured. Drake stood in front of me, his eyes hard and unyielding. His arms were crossed behind his back, hi

    ZeldaI felt Jake's hand slip from my grasp, and I heard a sickening thud as he hit the rocks below. I wanted to believe he was still alive, but I knew it was a futile hope. I sank to my knees, my eyes fixated on the jagged cliff that loomed before me. “Jake! Jake! Jake!” I heard Drake’s voice as he called out, but the only response was the echo of his own voice. Desperately, Drake yelled again, his voice hoarse and cracking. But there was no reply, only a heavy silence. I turned to Drake, his expression unreadable. “Let's go,” he said quietly, his voice heavy with grief. “No!” I cried, shaking my head. “We have to find him! We have to save him!” I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. I couldn't accept that he was gone. Drake took my face in his hands, his eyes filled with sadness. “He's dead, Zelda,” he said softly, his voice cracking. “I'm so sorry.” I shook my head, refusing to accept that Jake was gone, and then I freed myself from hi

    Zelda“Help!” I screamed, my voice hoarse with fear. My claws were digging into the wall, my muscles straining as I fought to stay in place. But I could feel myself slipping, and I knew I couldn't hold on much longer. My eyes darted to the ground below, my heart racing as I thought of the fate that awaited me if I fell. I heard the guards. Drake and Jake were shouting, but I was unable to make out what they were saying. I closed my eyes, my mind spinning as I tried to find a way out of this.I howled in desperation, the sound tearing from my throat. “Zelda!” I heard Drake call, his voice echoing through the cavernous space. I opened my eyes, straining to see him through the darkness. He was standing on the edge of the cliff, his arms outstretched toward me. But it was no use. I was too far away, the space between us was too great. “I can't reach you, Drake,” I cried, my voice cracking. He took a step closer, his eyes pleading. “Just try, Zelda,” he said, his voice shaking.I strugg

    ZeldaDesperate, I reached out with my mind, trying to connect with Drake. To my relief, I felt him there, his mind close and receptive. I tried to send him to our location, hoping he could understand my message. Suddenly, I felt his presence grow stronger. He was coming, and he was coming fast. I sent him another message, pleading with him to hurry. He responded, his mind filled with a sense of urgency and determination.Cindy's wolf was impossibly fast, making it difficult for me to shift into my wolf form. I heard a loud growl in the distance, and my heart leapt. I knew that growl, that deep, angry sound. It was Drake, coming to save me. I just had to hold on until he got here. But I could feel my strength waning, and I knew I wouldn't last much longer. I had to find a way to keep myself safe, and quickly.Suddenly, Cindy's wolf stopped, her ears perked up and her body tensed. I could tell she had heard Drake, too. She turned to face him, her tail low and her eyes blazing with hat

    ZeldaThe cold water stung my face, jolting me into consciousness. I squinted against the bright light, my eyes taking a moment to adjust. I could feel my wrists and ankles bound, my body aching with the strain of being tied up. My head pounded, a dull ache spreading from the base of my skull. As I took stock of my surroundings, I noticed that I was in a small stone room, the only light coming from a small window high above my head. The room was bare, save for a single wooden chair in the corner.The last thing I remembered was a sudden, blinding pain as something hit me on the head. Now, here I was, tied up and at the mercy of Cindy, a woman who had always been a pest in my life.“Why are you doing this?” I asked, my voice cracking with fear. Cindy's smirk only widened, her dark eyes glittering with malice. “Oh, you know what you did,” she said, her voice dripping with venom. I tried to think of what I could have done to make her so angry, but my mind was blank.“We were friends, C

    Zelda“My lady,” a voice called from behind me, making me jump. I turned around to see a maid standing there, her gaze fixed firmly on the floor. “Your room is ready,” she said, her tone deferential. “How many miles is it from here to Cindy's grandmother's house?” I asked, my voice betraying my anxiety. The maid hesitated, then said, “I do not know, my lady.” I felt a wave of frustration, but I bit my tongue. “Thank you,” I said, my tone cool.I pulled the curtains closed, blocking out the moonlight. With a weary sigh, I let my shoulders slump. “My lady,” the maid said, “I hope you find the room to your liking.” I nodded my thanks, too tired to speak. She left me alone, and I entered the room, closing the door behind me. I sank onto the bed, its softness enveloping me. The silence was broken only by the ticking of the clock on the wall. I felt a wave of exhaustion wash over me, and I closed my eyes, my thoughts swirling.I felt my blood boil as I thought of what that woman had d
