Cheyenne’s POV
I woke up to the sound of someone knocking on my door. I jumped up not knowing what time it was and thinking I was late to my first day of training. I still had the map across my bed, so I quickly folded it up and shoved it under my mattress but told the person to come in.
Bethanie came in with a smile on her face and had a cart loaded with food again for me.
“You really don’t think I would eat all of this do you?” I asked with a smile on my face at the amount of food that was on this cart.
“I heard you were starting training today, so I wanted to make sure you weren’t going on an empty stomach.” Bethanie just shrugged her shoulders at me.
“Well I’m sure that’s not going to happen with all this food here.” I chuckled. I grabbed a huge saucer type bowl and sniffed it.
“That would be my creation. I call it the All-In-One.” Bethanie said with the biggest grin on her face.
“What’s in it?” I questione
Sorry for not updating sooner. Been fighting a migraine for the past few days. Please let me know your thoughts so far. Next up, we will see if Gunner can finally locate and come up with a plan to rescue his mate. Stay tuned!
Gunner’s POVOver the past few days, dad has been locked in his office on phone calls with other alphas from packs that surround the locations we had narrowed the list down to. With the time different between everybody, it was hard not to play phone tag with some of them.Ben and I had been putting in extra time at the gym and training. If we weren’t doing either of those, then we were looking over maps and my mate’s notes. We had a meeting with Alpha Brock and Charlie later today and I still haven’t heard from my mate in over 24 hours.Koa would send information as she could to Maddox who would then replay the images to me. From those images and what other information she gave us and the times she would connect with us, we were able to rule out one of the other locations, St. Lucia. So that left us with Scotland and Borneo.“Hey, you did some work in Iceland right?” Ben asked as we were driving to the
Gunner’s POVBen and I were walking around the college campus and so far all we had gathered is Kira had more or less vanished off the face of the planet. Nobody has seen or heard from her in a week. We had decided to go talk to her advisor to see if she indeed just vanished or if she dropped out of all her classes or maybe she just transferred to online or a different school. Ben was thinking that maybe with Cheyenne missing that it was too much for her and she transferred.“What’s going through that head of yours?” Ben asked as we were walking to the admin building on campus.“Do you think I should tell Cheyenne about Kira missing?” I asked. Maddox and I had been going back and forth on this since we left the packhouse.“Let’s try to figure out what happened to her first. If she really hasn’t gone missing, then there’s no reason to get your mate all worried and worked up for no
Gunner’s POV “Sir, Cheyenne’s father has been M.I.A. for a few days now. Ben and I just came from her house and we talked to Tyler while we were there. We were looking for Kira and wanted to question Tyler about her and when we asked to talk to his father, that’s when he informed us that he couldn’t deal with the lies from his mate and that he needed some space to clear his mind but he hasn’t been seen for a few days now. I wanted to speak with you about it to see if you could possibly up your border patrols or possibly send trackers to find him.” I said lowly but I knew he heard everything. “I would’ve known if he left the territory so he’s still within the borders. I will send my beta back to go look for him along with my best tracker. I wouldn’t normally worry about situations like this if I know they’re still within the territory but with everything going on at the moment, I do not want to take any chances. I do appreciate you bringing this to my
Cheyenne’s POVThe past few days have actually been fun, between training and working in the gym with Jax. Koa has been more relaxed herself with being able to shift more. She was extremely excited for the pack run tonight. It was a full moon and everybody shifts and runs with the King leading them all. The moon helps our wolves to recharge basically. Our wolves get stronger every time we shift and they draw their energy from the moon.“Good morning Princess.” Jax teased me.“You really do have a death wish don’t you?” I asked looking at him from the corner of my eyes while smirking.“It’s true. Why won’t you just accept it?” Jax asked.I looked back down at my plate and the stack of chocolate chip and butterscotch chip pancakes, playing with a few pieces that I had already cut off.“I don’t know. It just doesn’t feel right Jax. I grew up as an ome
Cheyenne’s POVI woke up the next morning in a good mood. I stretched my limbs out and could hear Koa yawn in my head. I got out of bed and walked over to my closet and changed my clothes for the day. I put on a pair of mid-calf length leggings and a sports bra with a tank top over it. I hated changing clothes more than I had to, so instead of going to breakfast then coming back to change for training, I just wore my training clothes to the dining hall.“Why are some people smiling and nodding at us?” Koa asked.“I’m not sure. It is kind of weird ain’t it?” I thought back.I continued walking while Koa remained on high alert. There was something going on and I couldn’t quite place it. Some people were acting very differently around me this morning.“Maybe they just found out who we are and they’re trying to kiss ass now thinking that when you take over, they will get whate
Gunner's POVI was in the middle of training with Ben when I felt my mate trying to connect with me. I told Ben I needed a break and went off to a quieter place so I could hear her. Maddox jumped in before I could even say hi, and then she said she was in the shower. Oh for the love of all things holy. This girl is going to be the death of me. I could feel Maddox prancing around pushing images in my head of our mate in the shower. Thank the goddess that Koa distracted Maddox long enough for my mate and I to talk.She updated me on how her training had been going and how some guy named Jax had been more or less taking care of her this whole time. Although the thought of another male touching my mate pissed me off, I also owed him for making sure she was safe. I had to calm Maddox down a couple of times at the thought of this guy and we finally agreed that we wouldn’t kill him but instead he deserved a thank you. At least until we got her back, bec
Cheyenne’s POVI’m not sure how long I sat there staring at the envelope in silence until it finally hit me. The map! I had completely forgotten about the Harry Potter style map that the King gave me. I jumped over to the other side of my bed and pulled it out and unfolded it. I looked all over it and finally found the dot that had Jax’s name next to it. I remembered the path to his quarters and then folded it back up and hid it again.I ran to my closet and I through on a hoodie and tennis shoes and headed out of my room. Luckily there weren’t many people out to stop or question me. Once I got to Jax’s door, at least I hoped it was his door, I knocked three times. I heard someone walking towards the door before it opened.“Alida, what are you doing here?” Jax asked surprised.“I have a problem. I need you like now!” I stated.“What’s wrong?” Jax said with all
Gunner’s POVAlpha Nik was over in the corner of my room talking lowly with my dad. So lowly that even Maddox couldn’t hear them. Although we weren’t really trying to either, we were more focused on the 3 people wondering around my room checking for wolfsbane or anything else that could harm us. Once we got the ok from them, I darted to my bed and picked up the note. Maddox nor I could get a scent off the note so we had no idea who it came from. When I opened the envelope and pulled the letter out and started to read it, I could feel my anger rising and Maddox hackles standing and growling in my head. Dear Sweet Beta,You’re little Princess won’t be around much longer if she doesn’t learn her place. That crown is mine and I will do whatever is necessary to make sure I get it. So, either she steps down or I will have no choice but t
Jax’s POV Alida and Gunner had been traveling around the world. To say they were gone a lot would be an understatement. Tora and I have been trying to keep up with the alphas here and requests they had for Alida for when she returned. Thank the Goddess Tora was more organized than I was. I didn’t know how to do any of this shit. We have been building the house back up little by little in our spare time. Chelsea was about to pop at any moment. Things just seemed to be going great. Apart from the everyday stress, there wasn’t much I could complain about. Life was going great with my mate by my side. Meanwhile, we were still checking into Tyler’s mate, Stephanie to see if bringing him in as a beta would be the smart choice considering who her father was. So far there were no red flags. I would say that it would be safe to bring her into the pack, but that decision was up to Alpha Nik. Emma did her time in the pack jail and faced her trial in her own pack as well. They only added 6 mor
Cheyenne’s POV It’s been about week after all the chaos. Between dealing with momma, my sisters, and then my heat, I thought I was going to lose my shit. Gunner was right there with me every step of the way though. He made sure I always had everything I needed and wanted. We started working on making a master map of all the territories in the US to find a piece of land that would be large enough to build the royal court and prison on. We had already considered the humans and places they vacationed and whatnot. It looked like the best place to build was going to be between some mountain tops in the Rockies. I laughed to myself knowing how much Ella hated the cold. Nik helped me write up the proposal after talking to Charlie to see about putting a cloaking spell on the place so if anybody did wonder into the area, they wouldn’t see it. Charlie agreed to help us along with Alex and a few other very powerful witches they knew. After sending out the proposal to the Alphas in the US, I ha
Cheyenne’s POV I didn’t get shit for sleep last night. Gunner was on patrols and my mind with wondering with all the different impossible outcomes for my sister’s trails today. In one outcome, I ended up on death row and they were both standing there laughing at me. Ridiculous, I know. Gunner would randomly check in on me, feeling the stress and anxiety through the mate bond. I rolled my tiny ass out of bed with a moan and made my way to the bathroom. A good relaxing shower was much needed right now. My whole body was tensed from all the stress. I didn’t even bother grabbing clothes to take with me. Nobody ever came into our room anyways. Well, not without knocking first anyways. I took Gunner’s shirt off and just tossed it on the floor along with my panties and shorts. I turned on the shower to let it warm up while I brushed my hair out. Once I finished, I stepped in the shower and just stood under the shower head. I let hell’s fire water just rain down on my face and roll down my
Cheyenne’s POVAlpha Brock had just finished updating me when a couple of alphas from the northern packs that I hadn’t met before walked in. Alpha Nik did the introductions and I smiled as I shook their hands. It didn’t take long after that, more and more started showing up. Alpha Nik and Alpha Brock never left my side the entire time, to which I was thankful for. I wasn’t really the people person and I really hated meeting new people. Ty always said I had social anxiety which would kill his social butterfly every time he took me out. Once everyone was here, I went out to meet with all the guards.“I know y’all don’t know me, but I am in fact the Queen Alpha.” I started and simultaneously all their heads bowed. “No need for the formalities out here. I just wanted to introduce myself and to thank you for coming. I don’t care what your Alpha has said, my order over rules him and when we break fo
Cheyenne’s POV“Holy sweet mother of baby Odin! Where the hell are my boots!?” I was scrambling around trying to get ready for the Alpha meeting in a couple hours. We ended up picking a location that would be easy for everyone to get to, but it was at least an hour’s drive out for us. I had already woke up late and rushed in the shower.I was in such a rush I forgot to take my panties off before getting in. Gunner got a good laugh out of it so I took them off and then whipped them at his head. I hurried with my shower and didn’t even bother with blow drying my hair. I just through it up in a wet messy bun. I didn’t care what I looked like, I was not trying to impress anyone by no means, and I already made sure that everyone knew that this meeting was casual dress.“Babe…” Gunner started.“Not now, I gotta find my boots! What the fuck?! It’s not like they just got up and wa
Cheyenne POVWaking up the next morning, I wiped the sleep from my eyes and stretched my whole body out. I looked over to see that Gunner was still asleep when an idea popped in my head. I grabbed a pen and paper and wrote him a note like he did to me. Only instead of a yellow rose I placed a heresy’s kiss candy on top of it.I quietly made my way out of the bedroom and closed the door softly behind me. Once I knew I was in the clear, I made my way down to the kitchen for some breakfast. It was still early and barely anyone was up. Mostly just the warriors going out for their own personal training or patrols switching shifts.I was in the middle of eating my butterscotch chip pancakes when my phone rang. I took it out of my pocket and looked at the caller ID. It was an unknown number. Normally I would just hit ignore but something was telling me to answer it. So I slid my thumb over the green circle on the screen.“Hello?&rdqu
Cheyenne’s POVI was awoke by kids laughter outside. My eyes fluttered opened adjusting to the sunlight coming through the opening between the curtains. I reached across the bed for Gunner but the bed was empty. Instead there was single yellow rose with a note on his pillow.Babe,You looked so peaceful sleeping, I didn’t want to wake you. I will be outside helping set up the fields for the little ones. Come on out when you wake up. I miss your face already.XOXO,GunnerI felt a smile crawl across my face. I immediately threw off the blankets and ran to the closet to get changed. I grabbed a pair of shorts and a tank top along with my tennis shoes. I hurried to change and threw my hair up in a messy bun without even bothering to brush it. I was trying to slid my shoes on as I was walking out the bedroom door. Once both my shoes were on, I bolted towards the front door.
Cheyenne’s POVI was sitting in Alpha Nik’s office with Alpha Brock sitting next to me. I knew it was killing Gunner not to be here but that was Nik’s call not mine. We had talked about my mother’s punishment first and I told them about the command I put on her. Would it work or not, I didn’t know how long it would work for but it was worth a try. Alpha Brock agreed to let her come back on the condition that my dad wanted her back. If he rejected her, then we would deal with that if or when that time comes.“What about Ella and Emma?” Alpha Nik asked.“They are both being charged with trespassing onto your territory correct?” Alpha Brock asked.“That is correct.” Nik confirmed.“And you say that their sole purpose here was to kill Gunner knowing that it might in fact kill you?” Brock asked looking at me.“Also correct.” I stated.
Cheyenne’s POVI stood there in utter shock for a moment until one of the guys behind me leaned down towards my ear and whispered.“Do you know them?” Jax asked.I let out a warning growl and took a defensive position causing both of them to do the same.“I got this sweetie.” Koa laughed. I felt this wave of energy come out of me and felt my eyes change colors. “On your knees NOW!” Koa growled.The two intruders tried to fight but ended up on their knees with their necks bared in submission. It wasn’t until I heard a whimper behind me that I realized that my command had affected even the alpha. I quickly released and apologized to the guys whom all reassured me that it was perfectly fine.“So you gunna tell us who these two are?” Alpha Nik asked now standing beside me and pointing between the two.“Alpha Nik, Beta Derek, Jax, these intruders would be tw
