Chapter 11That night after Phoenix showered and fell into bed exhausted over the day she had, she fell into a deep sleep. Meanwhile Gael was also in bed falling into a deep sleep thinking of Phoenix, he began to dream. He dreamt that Phoenix was standing in the field in front of the packhouse with a sheer dress on, the kind where you could see her whole body. Her hair was in coily waves down her back and the wind blowing against her made her look ethereal. She called his name and her voice, the sound went straight to his dick. He watched as she started walking toward him and the way her body moved had him paralyzed and unable to take his eyes off her. When she finally reached him, he just took her in, her scent enveloped him and his whole body tingled. His hand touched her cheek and electric shocks shot through his fingers, his arm, his whole body. Her hazel eyes seemed to pierce his soul. After what seemed like an eternity, he bent to kiss her and when their lips met, the mate bond
Chapter 12As Phoenix stood in the shower, watching the blood and chunks go down the drain, she wasn’t injured but felt a significant loss. She only killed in battle, in self-defense. Even the missions she was sent on, these were bad people who had killed the young, had used them for sexual trafficking and abused them beyond belief. It still made her sick to her stomach, but she always remembered what she learned from the Phantom woods about her temper. She practiced keeping her temper in check because she never knew what could happen if she truly lost it.She stood in the closet finding clothes to put on when there was a knock at the door. She didn’t care that she was in a towel and her hair still wet just said “come in.” In walks Gael who stops and quickly closes the door because he didn’t want anyone to walk by and see what is his. He stood there looking at those beautiful brown smooth legs and arms and imagined what she looked like naked. He adjusted himself and cleared his throat
Chapter 13Lance’s POVI’m sitting here on the porch still in disbelief over what I’ve seen my sister do. I was on the verge of stepping in so many times, but with each moment I was mesmerized with her. I never knew Phee held that kind of power. She’s always been my baby sister. When she was up against Montrose, I knew she would beat him, but the force of the kill move she used was incredible. Then she stood and challenged everyone before her, I must admit I was nervous because I wouldn’t let anyone rush her or hurt her, but then I looked over at Gael and I knew I’d be second in anything having to do with Phee. He was battle ready and did I see pride on his face? She was a well-oiled machine taking out everyone that stepped to her. The last guy, I actually felt sorry for. He was trying to be a warrior, but sometimes you gotta know when to say when. The way she ended him was brutal. After, she stood waiting and then the rest of Montrose’s warriors went to their knees with the sign of
Chapter 14She told them everything from her time in the Phantom woods to the day she went to the library, to the present. Doc Simmons sat up straight in his chair and said, “That explains so much. Your healing is incredible, your speed, strength. You’re everything is a hundred times more powerful than that of an ordinary wolf.”“Your aura is excruciating, and it brings Alphas to their knees.” Gael smiled as he looked at her.Doc Simmons was so excited. He got out of his seat and paced the room, “Oh I have to pull the books on Odin, I’ll start researching right now.” He ran out of the room like a kid with a new toy.Gael thought about all that Phoenix said and he had a myriad of emotions concerning his life up to now. He was destined to this wonderful entity, where he was the only one who could rein her in when she was out of control. He also thought about how dumb he’d been for years, and he still hadn’t sealed the deal with her yet. The twinge in his pants made him anxious to get to
Chapter 15“I can’t believe they managed to ruin all my plans! They still have my daughter and they killed Montrose.” Alpha Walters, Amy’s father was livid at how things were turning out. “Amy is pretty much a lost cause; she was weak when it came to men. She couldn’t go against the mate bond, but she sure as hell fought it to sleep with that weakling Alpha jr.” he was seething thinking about how she allowed herself to be taken advantage of. “Where is Tolina? I need her here now!” His subordinates ran to fetch the witch.After about twenty minutes in walks a woman with white hair looking to be in her thirties with sparkling grey eyes.“You rang?” she asked in a bored tone.“Yes Tolina. What is happening out there? I need answers. None of my pack warriors or Montrose’s came back. I have no intel. What is going on out there?”“Yes Alpha you have your answer right there. All your forces and Montrose’s have been captured or killed, same as Montrose himself. I told you this would happen; yo
Chapter 16Gael had finally figured out the date and he was excited. He’d have Lance helping and his parents kicked in as well. He contacted Phoenix telling her the time so she could get ready. She was at a loss because she was here on a mission, not for dates. Everything she packed was for combat or comfort. Nothing that screamed date. She was walking around her parents’ house in her underwear, not sure how she was going to pull it off.“Phee calm down dear we’ll figure this out.”“Mama, I don’t have not one decent thing that I can wear. Everything is either camo or leggings and tank tops.” She shrieked.“Hold on, mama has some stuff up her sleeves.” Phoenix frowned at the thought of wearing “mom clothes.”“Uhh no thanks mama, for real.” Her mom scoffed at her and went upstairs in a huff. Phoenix didn’t want to hurt her mother’s feelings, but she couldn’t imagine that she’d have anything in her closet that Phoenix would want or could wear. Boy was she wrong.Mama came down with a gar
Chapter 17We drove into town a bit and I could tell she was trying to figure out where we were going. I didn’t say. When we arrived, she had this look on her face I really couldn’t decipher, but I parked and got out to go to her side and opened her door and helped her out. We were in front of this impressive building with a world-famous restaurant on top. Everyone wanted to eat there, you had to have a reservation months in advance. Phoenix looked up and had this look on her face that wasn’t exactly what I thought it would be.“Are you disappointed? I asked her.“No, no not at all.” She said like she gave the correct answer.“Oh, I’m sorry, but we’re not going here, we’re going there.” I pointed to the little cozy Italian place to the left of that big building. Her smile was so big and genuine my heart exploded in my chest. I’d asked Lance and their parents what Phoenix likes. They all said, “Italian!” at the same time. They said that Phoenix was a simple soul and liked the little t
Chapter 18They spend the rest of the date feeding each other and then they ordered tiramisu and Gael thought he was in heaven. They talked and got to know each other, and Gael was shocked to learn about some of the things she had been through and done.He said, “I remember that war, they talked about how the Midnight Moon pack fought with such ferocity and conquered that shitty Pine Lake pack. I never liked that Alpha Reynard he was an asshole and then to find out what he did to his pack was just disgusting.”“Yes he was, a true asshole. It was a pleasure watching his downfall. That pack is flourishing now.”“All because of your help. You really are a treasure. I’m just thankful that you’re here with me.”She smiled and he reached for her hand, and she gave it. The night went on beautifully until it was time for them to leave when someone approached their table.“Gael is that you? Oh, my Goddess it is, how have you been?” Phoenix could tell Gael was trying to place who this chick was
Chapter 39It happened so quickly, every warrior in the room was startled.Alpha Walters wolf’s severed head blinked in surprise, not even aware that he was already on his way to the Moon Goddess.I went to stand at Freya’s flank and asked his warriors if this was really the way they wanted to go. At that question Freya turned around and crouched in position like she was ready to do more damage.Every warrior, other than my own, gave the pose of submission, on their knees with their fists over their hearts.“We will serve and pledge allegiance to Alpha Ryker!” They said in unison.I turned to Walters beta, who did not kneel in submission. “So I guess it falls to you to give us the answers we need.”Beta Timmerson smirked. “You know I can’t do that, Alpha.” He said with a smug look on his face.“Okay then, I guess I’ll have to have Phoenix and Freya bring you around. Darling?”Freya morphed instantaneously into Phoenix, and I immediately got super pissed as my mate was naked in front o
Chapter 38I threw the bunker door open and went in and grabbed the nearest warrior and ripped his head off.The screams from the women and stunned looks from the men made me smirk as I grabbed the next man and twisted his head making a gut-wrenching sound as every bone in his neck was broken. The warriors finally came out of the fog they were in and started to get up and come toward me to fight.Just what I wanted.The woman who I told to run, came back and was screaming for all the women to move. Thankfully, they came to their senses and started to get up and get out. Even better.The men were making a beeline toward me with a very large warrior pushing his way forward. The others stopped and let him through. I’d already made my assessment with the men in here and knew it was only a matter of time. I stood and waited for him to move closer before me. I did a dramatic huge sigh.“Well it seems I’ll have to tell you what’s going on, so you definitely won’t be able to say that I de
Chapter 37After that moment with Tolina I was even more concerned about the last thing she said. I was going to lose someone dear to me? That could be anyone. My parents, Lala, Sophia, Sonya, Ron, Kyle, Tina or even Gael.I went off to calm myself and meditated so hard that when I was ready I mindlinked Gael and told him that I was leaving for the camp. I needed Freya to run and me just ride it out.He mindlinked back that I better not leave him and to wait for him, and he meant that shit, but I couldn’t do what he asked. I needed to be wild and set things in motion on my own.I told him that this is part of the process of me preparing myself for a mission. He understood and gently asked me not to engage until we were all assembled. I agreed and was already halfway there when we ended the link.“I can feel the charms and spells all around us.” Freya said sniffing the air.“I feel something too, but I’m trusting that nose of yours. What should we do?”I could see the smirk on Freya fa
Chapter 36Two and a half hours later, everyone was assembled in Gael’s office. They had the plan worked out.Gael had sent scouts out there to gather intel before they assembled and executed the plan.When the scouts arrived, the information they had was crucial to victory. They informed the Alpha that there were at least four to five hundred warriors present.They said that Alpha Walters was indeed there and there were about close to 200 she-wolves in captivity, with a large number of them pregnant, but then some of them were malnourished and near death.Gael then called for Doc Simmons and informed him that he would be accompanying them, but outside of where the action was and for him to get his medical team together as they would be leaving late in the evening.The scouts also said they saw the witch, but she had also cast charms around the perimeter so that they would be alerted if anyone or anything would cross their border.Gael mindlinked Phoenix to call for Tolina. He wasn’t r
Chapter 35As they approached the packhouse, the omega’s bowed as they held the door open for these massive beasts. Two omega’s held the doors open to the Alpha’s suite and quickly exited when both wolves were inside.An Alpha wolf is very protective of his Luna and pups and if you linger to long they may see it as a threat.So once the door was closed Freya went to the floor and began to shift back. Ronan stayed, watchful to make sure Phoenix was alright.Phoenix woke on the floor with Ronan licking her face. “Mmmm, hi Ronan, did you have a good time last night?” she smirked as she sat up.He answered by lying next to her with his paws surrounding her body. She leaned into his massive chest and stroked his ears. He purred.“Thank you for always taking care of us, loving us. I’ll always be devoted and love you with all my heart and soul.” He leaned over her and rubbed her face.“You and Freya are my reason for being. I’ll always choose you both.”“Ronan, give me my Luna back please.”
Chapter 34They walked hand in hand with a picnic basket that had extra clothes and food in in. They didn’t know how long Ronan and Freya would be at it, so they wanted to be prepared.In the deepest part of the forest, they stopped and kissed each other. Both of them still mesmerized with the fact that they were blessed with each other. Phoenix started to undress with Gael staring at her with love and adoration in his eyes. He followed her lead and in no time they were both naked under the moonlight.“I’ve never shifted before Gael; I don’t know what is going to happen. I know it can be painful, and I’m okay with that, but I’ve heard it’s better when your mate is there.”“Yes my love, having your mate near helps tremendously; so I’ve heard. You ready?”“Yes.”Freya spoke to Phoenix. “Alright girlie, I’m ready and trust me okay? It’s isn’t going to be as bad as you think. I need you to relax and let go. If you fight me, it will be painful, do you understand?”“I do, and I trust you wi
Chapter 33This time Gael came and held me tightly. I don’t know if it was for him or for me. I held him back, but I couldn’t seem to cry about it.What started my tears was the little boy, Franklin. He went through years of therapy and treatment and finally when his wolf presented himself, he was able to heal in ways that made my heart happy.I’d kept up with him for years, I’d even met with him after he insisted on speaking to the one who saved him that night.I wasn’t sure I’d be able to, but I did. He thanked me and told me he wanted to attend the Werewolf Academy like I did and become a top-notch warrior like me so he could help those out there in need.I made sure he was accepted.I never thanked the Moon Goddess more for the crap I went through, because it brought me to Franklin.“I’d like to meet Franklin one day too babe.”…..What the fuck?“How did you know what I thought?”“I don’t really know; all I know is that you started speaking about it and I assumed you were mindlinki
Chapter 32We stood there stunned at this beautiful woman with white hair and a kind smile. Gael immediately tensed up knowing she was a witch.“Trust me, I mean you no harm.” She raised her hands in the air.“Yeah right, isn’t that exactly what a witch would say? How did you enter my territory, witch?”“No need to be rude Alpha Gael. If I wanted to attack you, I could’ve done it years ago, but I knew we would end up right here. Now I have vital information; do you want to know it or not?” She cut him a look with her hand on her hip and I knew she was legit.“Sorry about him, Miss……?” I asked her holding Gael’s hand tighter hoping to relay to him to hush and listen.“Tolina, Phoenix and I know everything about you, and if you’ll give me a minute of your time I can explain it to you.”“Okay. Let’s head to the packhouse.” Gael screamed in my head. “NO! I won’t allow her in the packhouse because there are innocents in there. I won’t have it!”Tolina then said, “Fine Alpha Gael we can sit
Chapter 31She found some righteous indignation in her as she tried to sit up and vehemently deny that Gael was with me every night. So much so, her signature nastiness came through and the snarl on her face reminded me that the real Amy was always just below the surface.“How does it feel Phoenix to know I had your man first? That I let him do whatever he wanted to me, whenever he wanted, and he screamed my name in ecstasy EVERY time we fucked and believe me it was all the time.You are just a second choice, and you will never get what I had, you’ll always be my sloppy seconds.” She laid back down against her pillow satisfied with herself. I shook my head.“It never occurred to me just how pathetic you are until just now Amy.You have the audacity to feel victorious in taking someone else’s mate while having your own, but let’s see just how this really turned out.Yes you fucked my mate for years, BUT you had to drug him all the time; and yet, he never marked you or came inside of yo
