NICKTears had been the order of the day since April returned from her meeting with the disciplinary committee. She walked out of the school court with dry eyes, but as I watched her from the parking lot where I was waiting, I could tell that she was using every last ounce of her strength to keep herself from crying while others were watching. My strong princess, I thought as she made it through without shedding a tear. But once the car door was shut behind her, she cried a river, and no matter how much I tried to console her, those tears didn’t dry for days on end. It hurt my heart and even my wolf so badly to see her in such pain, it made me wish that I could control time and somehow avoid this entire situation. I couldn’t just be a sitting duck, I tried every trick in my arsenal to get her some good news from school, but they were unwavering in their decision. While I knew it would be delusional to try and restore her position as president, I knew it wouldn’t hurt to try and r

XANDER I haven’t been myself since April’s reputation pummeled. The thought of how shattered she must’ve been haunted me. I regretted ever sharing that video with anyone else, because if I’d just kept it to myself, none of this would’ve ever happened. Knowing that I shared some of the blame completely broke me, to literal bits. When I heard of the harsh judgment that was passed by the disciplinary committee a few days ago, I desperately wanted to find her and at least know how she was doing. I knew how important that presidential post was to her and it must be tearing her apart to have lost it. For the first time ever, I was willing to show just how much I cared about her in hopes that it would serve as some form of consolation. I needed her to know that I’d have never done her that way even though I was fond of throwing that threat around. But of course, all my attempts to reach her were thwarted. Nick made damn sure of that. She was completely unreachable and so was he, he was

APRIL The private jet was such a pleasant surprise. I’d long brown tired of being cooped up in Nick’s apartment and being bored to death while repeating the same routines and edging towards a sea of depression, but I hadn’t made any attempt to leave because I was too ashamed. Ashamed that if we went out for a date, someone from some would recognize me and begin to throw harsh insults at me because of the strip video. Ashamed that I wouldn’t be able to raise my head like before because everyone saw me as a disgusting whore who made a living giving men reasons to jerk off while pretending to be a model student. I couldn’t stand to face my new reality and that’s why I just settled for being indoors, crying nonstop, stuffing my face with snacks, rewatching sad movies, singing along to shitty sad songs, and relying on cuddling Nick at night as my daily dose of human interaction. When he mentioned that we were going somewhere, I was only reluctant to join him because I thought we were

XANDERAs the days progressed, things only got much worse than before. With every waking moment, April was the foremost thought on my mind and nothing I’d done was able to change that. She was in every glass of water, every meal, every game character, ever mirror, every movie scene. Every fucking where! The best way I knew how to flush a girl out of my system was to fuck several other girls until the thought of her was dormant and ended up vanishing completely. But that wasn’t even an option to get rid of this sick obsession with April because I couldn’t even get aroused by any other girl, I’d watched countless porn videos to at least get some action but that was also completely useless. The only way I could feel act form of arousal was by thinking back to the times when I’d fucked April, that was the only thing that got me going. Now, the problem was that each time I gave into any arousal that was triggered by her and gave in to the urge to jerk off to those thoughts, I always end

APRIL Being on a vacation with Nick has been absolute heaven. After this experience ended and we returned home, it would be the one thing I’d visualize whenever I thought of heaven. I mean, there couldn’t be anymore to paradise than what Nick had shown me over the last week. Everyday birthed new experiences and fresh feelings that left me feeling like I was soaring through the clouds and nothing could bring me down. That was particularly shocking because if anyone had ever told me I’d be capable of feeling happiness after what happened two weeks ago, I’d have knocked them unconscious with an uppercut. But here I was, somehow living my best life. Every moment was rewarding and dreamy, especially because I kept falling more and more in love with him. Each time I thought that he’d outdone himself and I couldn't possibly love him more, he proved me wrong by sweeping me off my feet in the most thoughtful ways. This morning, he surprised me with a sign up sheet for a volunteering agent

APRIL A groggy feeling made my joints feel wobbly as my eyes reopened. However, I didn't even have time to dwell on that when the first sight that welcomed me was Xander’s face. I turned my head to the side, wondering if I’d been missing him enough to start hallucinating this clearly. How could he be right in front of me? I blinked again in disbelief. Hadn’t I blocked him out of my mind by immersing myself in every moment with Nick? My head felt awfully heavy and I tried to steady myself by pacing my breathing, all while wondering how I was possibly seeing Xander. I wasn’t kissing him nearly enough to have conjured him out of nowhere, Nick was doing an amazing job of making me forget him, that’s for sure., I was about to pinch myself to snap out of whatever dream I was having when the events from before I lost consciousness came flooding in. Someone had covered my mouth with a clothe and immediately I breathed in whatever substance it was drenched in, I immediately passed

APRILFor forty fucking minutes, Xander ignored me. I kept snapping at him and telling him how much of an asshole he was for whipping me away against my will, but he didn’t care about my feelings in the slightest. He just kept watching Wrestle Mania reruns on the screen before him and filling up on grapes, cheese, and biscuits. It was so annoying that he seemed to be having the time of his life while I was pissed beyond explanation. At some point, I gave up on getting through to him and tried to stress eat, but everything in sight tasted like cardboard paper in my mind. Eventually, I settled on filling my tummy with champagne while simultaneously trying my hardest to stay sane. “Mr. Xander, we’re preparing for landing,” the pilot announced, “please take the necessary safety measures, and would you like the hostess to buckle in your guest for landing?” “Nah, I’ve got her covered, thank you, Samuel,” Xander answered before immediately getting out of his seat. He stood before me, e

APRIL The shower was barely relaxing, but I got through it quickly and stepped out of the bathroom.Xander was the type to give me his clothes instead of provide me with any new ones, so I was a bit taken aback to see fresh female clothes that looked like they’d come straight off a Forever 21 rack sitting on the bed. “This changes nothing,” I muttered to myself as I shuffled through the cute clothes. Every single one of them was adorable and simple, and that was exactly my style. And since Xander didn’t pay enough attention to me to have picked up on that detail, I knew that a female staff whose style accidentally matched mine must’ve picked them out. Tucking that piece of information in the back of my mind, I threw on a cute pink two piece that did a great job at covering me up than the other outfits in the pile. Then I pulled my hair into a ponytail and stepped out of the room with one purpose on my mind… Escaping from Xander’s tyranny and finding my way back into Nick’s warm em

PLAYTHING OF THE ALPHA PREDATORS EPILOGUE
PROLOGUEAPRIL“Sandy, stop making your brother cry. You promised that you wouldn't do that today, remember?” I groaned as my oldest child terrorized her little brother. She shrugged, laughing, the mischievous glint in her eyes matching that of one of her dads whose character she’d inherited; Ace. “It’s so easy to make him cry, I promise I wasn't even trying. I’m just being myself,” she flipped her dark lush hair over her shoulders, the glossy and stunning sight also resembling that of her fathers. She was such a daddy’s girl that she took every last bit of her being from them; her drop dead gorgeous looks and her fearless, stubborn personality. According to her dads, she got her stubbornness from me and not them, but I refused to believe that. “Sweetheart, putting a worm in your brother’s shoe doesn't count as being yourself,” Nick stifled laughter as he walked into the living room, dressed handsomely in suit that was identical to our son Samuel’s. “I’m a prankster and an anima

APRIL“Well, it’s a good thing I know exactly where that asshole is,” Nick’s mom said, the anger in her voice superseding his.At least Xenia’s trip across the world had proven to be the answer to our problems. But now, we had yet another broken hearted mate to add to the mix, and just like me, the pain sprung from parental issues. However, there was no time to dwell on that. The moon goddess had given us an opportunity to reclaim the peace in our city, so we had to focus our all on that. After the city was secure, we'd find a way to tend to our broken hearts and find the emotional healing we all deserve.But for now, all that mattered was find Nick’s monster of a father and putting and end to his evil attacks. “Are you sure this is the place, mom?” Nick asked as we pulled into the empty driveway of an abandoned factory in the middle of nowhere. “I'm certain. I'll never forget it because I traced his assets all over the city in a bid to uncover proof of his evil agenda, but he cau

APRILWe all followed behind him, running until we stopped outside what seemed to be a prison cell. There was a woman dressed in tattered clothes and covered in dust cowering in a corner and hugging her knees to her chest, and something about her was oddly familiar. My mates also seemed shocked by her presence, but not in the same way that I was. The look in their eyes told me that they knew something about this mystery woman that I didn't know. Before I could even ask about it, Nick grabbed the iron bars and broke them off with a deep growl before running into the cell and wrapping his arms around the woman. That? That was the most confusing thing I’d ever witnessed. And I needed answers right now.I started to stomp towards the cell when Nick said a word that made me freeze in place, understanding washing over me in a thousand waves. “Mom! It’s you!”I blinked repeatedly, awfully confused. “Mom?” Ace and Xander looked away from the emotional reunion unfolding before us and nodd

APRILGlinda was confirmed to have been dead for good, but our hellish experiences still didn't cease after her death. Personally, I was still grieving my mother and the wonderful life I would've enjoyed with my parents if she hadn't swooped in and turned things upside down. My mother’s burial was an emotional moment for me and I broke down completely while delivering the eulogy. The guys even had to come upstage and keep from falling apart some more. The days that followed weren't any greener, especially with the dark void around the city worsening and swallowing us into a vortex while I was still grieving.Of course we were terribly confused as to why the spiritual attacks had carried on even after Glinda’s death, but no one had a reasonable answer to that. It was fucking frustrating having to watch people in pain almost every damn day. It sucked the humanity out of one’s soul and replaced it with nothing but bitterness. The only thing that was clear to me about the pattern of

APRIL“You rotten lads, you couldn’t just mind your damn business? This is your fathers’ karma, why did you have to dig your stupid snotty noses in it?” she hissed angrily, overly displeased that she’d been found out by us.“We should be asking the questions,” I responded, upset that she hadn’t even made an effort to explain herself, “we came here thinking this whole fiasco was orchestrated by Glinda, only to see that it’s you, mom?!” The disappointment in my voice was thick, but she obviously didn’t give a shit about my feelings because she broke into hysterical laughter. “Mom? I’m not your fucking mom you idiotic little whore,” she rolled her eyes, and then she snapped her fingers, causing her face and physical appearance to warp instantly. Suddnely, she was a silver-haired woman with countless ancient tattoos of the moon and a shiv stuck in her heart that told us more than we needed to know. Later on, the Alphas had given us a more detailed tale of the day they finally took dow

APRIL It’s been almost a month of back to back horrors breaking out in the city.We’d successfully chased the rogues out of the city and the sorceres were stationed alongside the armies by the borders, making sure that no more enemies were able to breach our defenses and get in.Heaps of bodies had been buried over the weeks and the entire town was reeking of grief. Loved ones were being mourned in different corners of the city were candles were lit beside framed photos and bouquets of flowers. Each photo of the dead that I saw brought me close to tears, but for children’s photos, my heart literally ached and felt like it was going to explode. Living in a place that was shrouded with pain and darkness was suffocating. Even though the sun came out each day, it felt like there was a dark void enveloping the city because everyone was in a sunken mood. We had to find Glinda and put an end to her attacks before the city was ruined beyond saving. Our search for her so far has proven fu

APRILThe ticking clock in the ICU waiting room was the only audible sound.Xander had been taken in for an emergency operation a while ago and we were still waiting to hear back from the doctors.When we arrived at the hospital, he was barely breathing, and it seemed like they might’ve stopped his heart for the surgery because I couldn’t feel even a shred of his presence through the bond. On our way to the hospital, we’d dropped Natalie at one of the safety bunkers where security and magic borders were keeping people safe. If she was here, she’d have been a great distraction for me. And god, I’d do anything to be distracted from this godawful unending pain. My chest fucking hurt. Every nerve in my body was on literal fire. My head was pounding as though a line up of high school bands were in a competition. All I could think of was the pitiful state we’d found Xander in a while ago. The way he looked helpless and near death’s door. The way his blood was like a second skin masking

APRILThe city was a mess. A bloody one.“Natalie, stop using your fucking phone or you’re going to get us killed,” I whispered to my best friend whose face was a mess of dry tears. She glared at me. “If I’m going to die, I need Hector to know that he was the best sex I ever had and I always wished we became more.” I frowned at her, both disturbed and confused that she’d picked that as the most important thing to put in order in a life and death situation. What a freaking clown.“Nat, I’ve told you a thousand times, you’re not going to die,” I bit out, “Nick asked us to stay hidden here and he’ll come get us, and I know he will.”I reminded her of the instruction we’d gotten almost an hour ago when chaos broke out in the city.Apparently, some rogues breached the city’s gates and began to brutally attack every living thing in sight. They've been killing anything in their way and no one is exempt from their wrath.Not women. Not innocents. Not children. Not animals. It was a battle

XANDER Today, just like every other day for the last two weeks, we’d split up to search for Brooke. April was able to fully recover from the effects of the poison she was heartlessly fed by Brooke after a full day or more. Once we were certain that she was in a perfectly healthy state, we decided to go on a hunt for Brooke to make her pay for hurting our precious mate.No one seemed to know where she was. No one had seen her since she ran off that day. Even the city cameras had no footage of her since that day. It was almost like she’d vanished into thin air after that day, but we refused to give up on our search.We even had the authorities officially interrogate everyone she knew, especially those she worked with at her modeling agency, but no one had any reasonable information to share with us that would narrow her search.Even her personal assistant only heard that she was missing from us, he’d assumed she was taking a mental health break when she didn’t come to the office for
