Chapter 36
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I found myself in a strange place, it was too dark for me to make out shapes of well… anything. A mist-like being stood before me, a strange sense of familiarity drew me in as if I was supposed to not only know this thing but something more.
“Laura…” it whispered with urgency.
“You must… drink… protect them”
It practically hissed as it swarmed around me, the mist almost licking my skin. I yelped as the mist left cold spots where it had touched my skin. That same black ooze from my last dream leaking from the spots.
“Laura…” it egged me on as I touched the liquid. It was hot, sticky, and viscous. I took my finger to my lips and licked it. Surprised at its sweet, moreish taste.
Suddenly the world shifted around me, I was surrounded by strangers all staring at me with anticipation. Their faces were distorted, a mixture of human and wolf features but yet sinister. One of them growled as they quickly turned angry.
“No wolf.” They started gr

“You seriously didn’t consider that you would be leaving so soon?” She sighed before hugging me “Laura, my sweet, slow Laura.” I pulled away and slapped her arm, she looked at me surprised as she rubbed the spot I hit. “Ow, when did you get so strong?” I looked at her mortified as she pouted before staring intensely at the ground. “Did you… did you shift?” Ellen asked excitedly as I gulped. “No… no, you would be more excited if that happened… Laura… what happened?” Her voice was full of concern and confusion as I felt all words leave me. I wanted to tell her, but I couldn’t stand the thought of her hating me… “Laura?” She asked again putting her hands on my shoulders. I tried to shrug off her grip but she held on tighter, I could feel her stare as my palms began sweating. She sighed before jerking my face up, her face stern waiting for my response. “I… I bit him…” She let go of me relieved and smirking.
Promised to the Alpha A letter from the Author (Bonus chapter of a mad man)
Hello, my dear readers! I want to thank you all for your ongoing support and attention to this novel. As mentioned in my last author's note I have received some comments that my chapters are too long, after long consideration, I am planning to continue them at their current length. I also have social media account's you can follow for questions or just to send me feedback, just search Rees J Jones and my Author Picture should pop up on said profile :) Now, there has been a delay between chapter updates and there are good reasons for that but I won't go into too much detail. I have some chapters almost ready for release however thought I would give you this mini-chapter to tie you over. Inside Victor's mind. If you had told me before I got to Slate pack that I, Victor, would have found his mate I would have laughed at your cruel joke. Yet, here I was. Freshly married to the girl the Goddess had hand-picked to be m

I was enjoying this strange sense of peace as Ellen and I walked back towards the guest floor where Victor surely would be, but, when we opened the hall doors to the stairwell we were both taken aback in surprise. There were people running around everywhere, sobbing, frantic faces dashing past us. I shared a worried look with Ellen, there was no way Victor had caused this mess. “What’s going on?” Ellen asked a stranger grabbing her arm and yanking her to face us. She was younger than both of us, her swollen eyes and red nose gave away her grief as I felt my heart stutter. Had someone else been killed? “Luna…” She choked out before bursting into inconsolable tears. My heart stopped, the world slowed as I stared at her. Ellen shaking her with her own panic. “What about the Luna?” “She’s gone!” The girl wept as Ellen and I stood in shock, disbelief, and grief. Both of us running to the pack house’s medical ward, neither of us spok

Ellen’s P.O.V Days had passed, Laura was getting better but still was comatose. I felt… useless. I couldn’t tell anyone what Herman had told me, I trusted what he was saying without words. I might not have understood the whole thing but I knew just how serious he was being. I let out a heavy breath not realizing I had been holding it in as I glanced at Laura, her skin was greenish now the bruising had subsided. I had been taking turns watching over her with Bella. Domini, Anya, and Alpha Victor had to return to Crimson pack territory. We were being permitted to stay until Laura could walk, in Luna Ashly’s memory. I clenched my jaw thinking back to Alpha Clide’s visit that very same night he had beaten Laura to a pulp. “Ellen.” Alpha Clide’s eyes darted to Laura, darkening and narrowing at her body. “I am only allowing you to care for… it… her as the last gift from my Luna.” I glanced at Xander, standing behind his father a look of utter bewilderment at his to

"Oh what a tangled web we weave when at first we start to deceive" - Sir Walter Scott, 1808 I gasped as the most excruciated pain circulated my entire body, thrusting my eyes open to be blinded by bright white light. “Laura?!” “Oh thank the Goddess!” I gritted my teeth as I closed my eyes as tight as I could, the light still blinded me so I covered them with my hands. I groaned at the motion, my body felt like it hadn’t moved in days. “Turn off some of these lights Bella, I think they are hurting her.” “Oh right!” I felt instant relief as the lights turned off, I re-opened my eyes slowly. I looked over to my left side to see Ellen, a sad smile playing on her lips sitting in a chair beside me. I was instantly concerned by her unkempt appearance, her hair was a mess and she had no make-up on. Before I could even open my mouth to ask what was wrong ahead of red messy curls c

I awoke it seemed much later to both Ellen and Bella snoring, I glanced between the two of them feeling an immense sense of guilt. How much had changed, how much pain and turmoil they had both had suffered through because of me. Ellen was right, I was stupid. Sighing I sat up surprised by the lack of pain. I inspected my body feeling an odd sense of dread seeing it back to its normal condition, not a single bruise left. How long had I slept for this time? I bit my lip as my mind raced with everything that had happened. I was stuck, stuck on how to feel about Clide. Ellen’s words bounced about my mind as memories of his harsh, almost cowardly nature reminded me that perhaps she was right. After all, how long had it taken me to see Xander for who he truly was? Was I really that naïve?I stood, waited a moment for the old satisfying cracks of my bones, and a little hesitation after being unable to last time. But neither the sound of cracking bones nor that uneasiness

Hello everyone! Quick request from myself! If you come across a chapter that is confusing please leave a comment on that chapter with a little explanation on what is confusing. I appreciate the feedback you give me and really want to improve my writing so please be more open with me. I'm also very happy that you all seem to like the idea of free chapters in Victor's P.O.V so from here onwards every 5th chapter will be from his perspective (and free). This chapter takes place before and just after Luna Ashly's death. Okay! Now that's out of the way, let's dive in! Victor's P.O.V Finally. She was mine. I couldn't lie or hide just how happy I had been that night, seeing her all dolled up with a traditional flower crown. My mate, my Luna, she was spectacular. I could feel her nervousness and hesitation but knew in my heart she would not have agreed or been there if she did not feel the same as me. I knew, thanks to Anya's meddling, that Xander

Her behavior was so, odd. Why would I have her clothes? Why didn't she bring her own? I felt agitated as she slammed the bathroom door but that quickly turned to remorse when I heard her sobs. How, how could I fix this? Why was she crying? Had I hurt her unintentionally? I had every intention of talking this out with her as soon as she came out, but I had passed out before she could return to the bed. I was pleasantly surprised when I woke up to have her cuddled up to me. My heart swelled as I felt my face break into a grin, her face buried into my neck, her light breathing caressing my skin. I refused to move in case I would wake her, and to try and stop my morning wood from getting too excited. She shifted slightly, murmuring in her sleep before I felt her lips against the nape of my neck. My entire body shivering with anticipation and excitement as I felt her tongue flick against the muscle in my neck. My mind was racing, was she awake and ready to accept me? I felt

James P.O.VI couldn’t help but grin as I sat upon my throne of Jasper, sipping from a crystal glass holding the blood of a beautiful and enchanting woman. She had been so kind to me, directing me, aiding me and she tasted so sweet. Years of planning, of searching, had finally stopped. I had found her. Salvation.Her mother, she would surely be weeping now. Knowing that even her and that idiot Fredo’s deaths couldn’t stop me from taking what was mine. Pity, really. Fredo was made to rule, to lead great armies. But he was blinded, by her, that harpy. He knew my plans to overthrow his father, even once supported me in my cause. Yet, as soon as he laid eyes on her… She destroyed him. Convinced his brothers to flee, to join the disgusting mutts over their own kin. Disgusting and weak were the so-called royalty. Their father, King Zeroth at least fought, but his age made it too easy.I sighed deeply before taking another sip of the sweet nect

I felt conflicted as Victor re-dressed himself, part of me wanting nothing more than to never leave this moment. For once, I felt happy. Content even. I knew it was almost stupid of me to think that, but I couldn’t help it. It was as if as soon as my wolf had come upon me the world had shifted. I just knew I knew that I loved Victor. I wished I had of given the idea more credence sooner, and not wasted so much time chasing Xander. Xander… why did his name still bring that heaviness to me, was it true? That I had multiple mates?“My Luna?” Victor called me back to reality with a look of concern.I felt oddly guilty, as if it was wrong of me to have any remaining feelings towards him, that even the mere thought was somehow a slight against Victor. I took a deep breath before shaking my head and getting dressed myself.“Laura?” He repeated, his tone steady and yet his eyes showing a vulnerability I found hard to ignore.&
Promised to the Alpha Update From the Author!
Hello everyone, I am sorry if this chapter update disappoints any of you as I am unable to reply/comment on chapters at the moment due to problems with my phone. Essentially, if you missed my last comment I have been having the worst luck recently, my laptop decided to play up (wouldn't turn on etc), my phone is an older model so I can not rely on that to update chapters so had left a previous comment advising that until I can get my laptop in a better state I am unable to update chapters. Today I have seen comments saying that the site is suggesting my book is completed, this is incorrect. I am doing my best to get my tech fixed or to find alternatives, I have managed to get some life into my laptop but are having issues with word. I also have a day job so unfortunately can not focus all my energy on this at once. I completely understand your frustrations and can tell you I am very frus

“No… it’s can’t be true…” She whispered as Victor glared at her before glancing at me, worried. “What? What does that mean?!” I asked as Victor picked up another shirt covering the mark. “It means…” Victor sighed, pained. “That I am your second mate.” I stared blankly at him as Rebbeka looked between us horrified and confused. “As in... my second chance mate?” I asked hopeful, yet understanding what this really meant…. “No…” Rebbeka said softly, her eyes flicking back to my mark. “It means you have more than one.” I looked at Victor, my heart hurting at his jealous and pained expression. I didn’t want this… “So… he is her… first mate... ?” Rebbeka asked Victor nervously as if I was no longer in the room. Victor gave her a sad smile nodding, “that’s why I couldn’t kill him… I wanted to… fuck I still do… knowing… knowing that a part of her will always love him… no matter how far she is from him, no matter how hard

I had expected to be alone for a while once Ellen left to find Domini, and yet no sooner had she left Rebbeka was at the door. A grin plastered on her face, her eyes wide with joy at the mere sight of me. It made me somewhat uncomfortable, she seemed to see me as … as an actual Luna. “Luna!” She exclaimed happily letting herself in, glancing around in disdain at Victor’s room, almost in the same vein as I had. “I had assumed he would have… done something in here…” She mumbled to herself before standing a few meters away from me, one hand on her hip looking down at me with excited eyes. “Luna Laura, I’m sure you are quite busy at the moment… well after the events of today” she smirked as if holding back a giggle before her eyes narrowed and I saw a flash of anger that chilled me. “Of course Alpha Victor has advised me you are insisting on being present during… during the interrogation of the vampire.” She spat vampire with such pure hatred I felt my heart

“What… Laura?” He asked hurriedly before briskly walking over to me, and glaring at Ellen. “What did you do?” “Me?” Ellen asked pointing to herself as he growled, “I didn’t do anything!” “She didn’t… Look… Victor… I’m… I’m sorry about… well about before…” I felt exasperated by the inner turmoil of emotions running through me. He gave me a strange look, before sighing and pressing his forehead against mine. I was surprised how sweet and loving his action felt, his skin seemed so pleasantly warm against mine instantly calming down that strange panic “My Luna, It’s okay. I may have reacted… well… a little overreaction really.” He sighed again before planting a light kiss on my forehead. “This room used to be my parents, I just never had the… desire or need to change it dramatically.” I felt more guilt bubble inside me as he kissed my forehead again. “You didn’t know, besides you are right.” He pulled away to give me a small yet sa

Victor paused at the doorway, with one hand unbuttoning his shirt to cover my naked body as best he could, I felt myself smirk as he growled in frustration as the shirt kept slipping off. Ellen giggled from behind us, throwing the blanket off the bed onto us both.“Wow, am I smarter than our own Alpha?” She teased as Victor rolled his eyes, wrapping me up as if I were a burrito.I was secretly pleased that Ellen seemed less and less scared of him as the days passed, after all, I was learning that he was all bark and no bite.I snuggled into his chest as we walked the halls, feeling exhausted and overwhelmed with my new senses. At least his scent overpowered all the others, his soft and steady heartbeat silenced the insistent noises from the house. He brought us into a new room, it was spacious as if it had not been finished yet. The walls and ceiling were a dull and boring off cream color, Victor put me down on a huge king bed with a white canopy. I

Victor's P.O.V My world was almost complete. I had my Luna, my Laura finally. Now, just one thing was left. My revenge. I waltzed into my pack's boardroom room knowing that soon my world would be complete. Anya sat to the right of the head chair, my chair. She too sat with a huge grin spreading across her lips, practically bouncing in excitement. I was a little surprised to see Bella, messed hair, and a half-asleep look sitting beside her but did not say anything. “Alpha Victor!” Rebbeka called, standing with her arms extended for an affectionate hug. Chandler sat next to her, smiling widely at me as I embraced Rebbeka before shaking his hand. I was so grateful for those two, ever since my parents were murdered they stepped up, not just for mine and Anya’s benefit but for the whole pack. “Domini” I nodded to the frowning man my Luna seemed so fond of, he seemed to have been lost in thought his face changing to a hesitant but friendly one. “Alp

“I see…” He murmured darkly, his eyes flicking to Ellen as he scowled. “Don’t you dare look at her” I spat as his eyes looked back at me, his scowl sending a wave of fear through me. “Dimitri… my boy…” he spoke calmly without breaking eye contact with me, Dimitri had made it to the door, hand hovering over the handle. “I would choose your next action very carefully.” I flicked my eyes to Ellen, she was shaking in fear but readying herself to shift as Dimitri held up his hand at Herman, his eyes narrowing as if he was using great effort at something. He stared at Herman mouth agape in horror and surprise. “Why…” He muttered, I felt another wave of fear pass through me as Herman’s eyes bore into mine. “Why, Dimitri… you really didn’t consider what I am did you?” Herman stood slowly, turning to face him. I watched in horror as Dimitri’s face turned white as his eyes flickered between mine and Herman. “Now, be a good boy…” Herman s
