Cheyenne’s POV
I feel my eyes flutter open, not sure what to expect at this point. Once my vision focuses, I look around and realize I’m in a hospital room. It’s still dark outside so I must not have been out that long. I look around and see a figure passed out in the chair besides my bed. I let my eye adjust a little bit more and then I realize that it’s Tyler. I reach over to grab his hand that was resting on the edge of the bed. When I touched it, he jumped up and looked at me.
“Cheyenne, you’re awake!” He damn near pounced on me to give me a hug.
“No. No I’m not. Just having an out of body experience.” I say jokingly. He pulls back from me with a smirk on his face.
“Yep, you’re going to be just fine.”
“What the hell happened? Where am I?” I asked looking around the room.
“You tried to play hero again. Something about tackling another cheerleader out of the way from being crushed by 3 football players and you smashe
Cheyenne’s POV After a bunch of testing, I was finally released from the hospital and was able to get home to my own bed. I really didn’t get shit for sleep the past couple nights being in the stiff ass hospital bed. I told everybody that I just wanted to be left alone so I could sleep. I had mid-terms coming up and I didn’t want to be so tired that I was sleeping through them. Last I saw on the clock on the nightstand by my bed, it was 4:30pm on Sunday afternoon. I had classes tomorrow but mid-terms didn’t start till Thursday. Professors were using the first part of the week to review everything that we’ve learned so far. When I woke up, the sun was high in the sky. I jumped up and looked at the clock; 10:30am! Shit! I was late! Why the hell didn’t anybody wake me up?! I jumped out of bed and start flying around my room getting dressed as quickly as I could. I was dressed and out the door in record time! I made it in time to my 3rd period
Cheyenne’s POV After I got home, I had been thinking more on this upcoming war that I was supposed to fight in and if I failed, it would mean the end for my kind. I decided to do some research on the past wars that greatly effected our kind as a whole with the help of Koa. She was actually very helpful and knew a lot about the history of our kind. Needless to say I was kind of surprised at how much she knew. I was looking for patterns, who won and how they won and that's when I noticed the dates of each of the major wars. They were all exactly 150 years apart. Spaced out just enough that the stories could be past down but 1 werewolf wouldn’t have to live through 2 wars in the same life time. “Well that’s weird…” I thought to myself, forgetting once again that I was not alone in my head anymore. “What’s weird Dearie?” Koa’s smooth voice coming back in my head. “All these wars. They are all right around 150 years apart. Granted
Cheyenne’s POV I decided I was skipping classes today and heading to the pack library to find out more about these famous wars. When I walked in, I saw the nice elderly lady from down the street. She smiles at me as I walk up to the counter. “Hello young lady. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you in here. What are we looking up today?” She asks with a smile on her face. She was always so sweet to us kids on the block. She was always baking cookies, pies, cakes, anything and everything for us, until we grew older and stopped going down to see her. “I’m working on a history project for school. I’m needing some information on some major wars that have happened. Can you point me in the right direction?” “I always told the kids that history always repeats itself and to pay attention. Gl
Mystery Guy POV Finding out the latest on the runt’s family had only left me with more questions. I had to find out the truth. It’s been a couple of days already and I still hadn’t heard anything from Ben yet so that only meant one of two things. Either A – it was a lot more complicated than we thought and he’s going to hand me a novel worth of paperwork or B – he was having a hard time finding anything on them. The runt wasn’t in class yesterday or today. I didn’t take her for type to skip class especially during midterm week. I saw her blonde headed friend that I had told to go with her to the hospital Friday night and Maddox was driving me crazy wanting me to fin
Cheyenne’s POV Ok, so in the last week alone, I find out that I’m allegedly “the chosen one” after having a private one-on-one meeting with Selene, the actual Moon Goddess herself, after I bashed my head trying to save one of the cheerleaders from being crushed by 3 ogre sized football players. I apparently already have my wolf, but I can only hear her at this point, and she wants me to train with some other pack to get stronger so we can shift and prepare for this alleged on coming war, BUT I have to do a shit ton of research to try and figure out who “they” are that are coming to attack us first so that way I can receive the “proper training”. Plus, the icing on the cake, there’s that mystery guy with those swirling bowls of honey for eyes. The kind that when you look into them, you just know everything is going to be just fine and you get all weak in the knees and… “BABYCAKES! COME DOWN HERE PLEASE!” I groan out loud to myself. Is she ever going t
Mystery Guy's POVBen and I had been combing threw every book we could, trying to find out what the creature was that Maddox chased across the territory the other night. We found creatures with red eyes and creatures that were abnormally large for wolves, but nothing with them combined. The best educated guess we could come up with was that these creatures bred and made hybrids, so we started compiling a list of everything these creatures were capable of. We needed to know if they were good or bad, but for me personally, I needed to know what they wanted with the runt.Ben had a couple other close calls with the runt and the restricted section in the library. Why was she not in school? I decided to keep an eye on her from a distance. Maddox was whining in my head because he just wanted to be near her, but until we knew what was going on, I couldn’t risk it. For all we knew, she could be this creature’s damn leader or some shit.Ben a
Mystery Guy's POVI woke up to my alarm going off. I rolled over, still half asleep, and shut it off. I laid there staring at the ceiling, thinking about all the things I had to do today. I had already talked to my professors and told them about a “family emergency” that had come up and they all agreed to let me turn my mid-terms in online. I already got those done and I was putting school on the back burner for now. I also talked to coach and told him the same story and told him I wasn’t sure if I would be back before the end of the season. I didn’t want to leave everybody hanging like that, but I never really wanted to go to school in the first place. I only went because that’s what dad wanted.Originally, I was set on hunting down the rogues that killed my mom, but now I needed to focus on the creatures that have started showing up, and what they were doing at the runt’s house. From what Ben and I could gather yes
Cheyenne's POVI had spent the day at the human library looking at old and new maps comparing the land plots trying to figure out today’s name for the locations of the 4 wars. Luckily my dad taught me how to read maps and what each symbol meant and how to measure the distance between cities and such. We spent a lot of time outdoors when I was little. Ty and I were always getting into trouble for “wondering around the woods” by ourselves.I was able to narrow down locations in somewhere in North America. In the picture I took the pennies I used as markers seemed close together like the wars would’ve taken place in the same region but the more I study these maps the more land it’s starting to cover. I was looking for some kind of pattern. Did the wars move in the same direction like start in the east and head west or visa-versa? Maybe I had the old map I took a picture of twisted, and I was looking at it wrong?From w
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
