Raija's pov

Getting slowly out of the truck bed I walked past the back window and glanced at Axel with sorrow-filled eyes. Pressing my hand on my aching heart I heard my mother's shrill voice breaking the moment.

"Oh My God, Raija, Tell Daniel thanks for finding her!!!!"

Feeling uncomfortable with her abnormal display of affection I tried pulling away only to have her grip me harder.

I was fully embraced by my mother weeping over me.

"I'm fine, Mom! I just got assaulted by the other coven!"

Simona pulled me back to scrutinize me with narrowed eyes.

"You were missing for two days! Daniel was certain that that rogue had something to do with your absence, now Come along before you cause more problems for the wolves of the Black Storm Pack," she said sourly. Glancing back at the truck speeding away caused my disposition to falter further. My stomach hurt and it felt like I was going to vomit. Thinking about Axel I felt my heart hurting and my soul felt like it was ripping apart.

  • Raija's Rogue Alpha Mate    Chapter 13 Meeting Alpha Daniel A Third Time

    Axel's pov Watching Raija getting smaller the further we drove away made my heart hurt. I had grown fond of my tiny mate in our brief time together. I hoped I wasn't being overly confident in Daniel's friendship. I hadn't been completely honest with him about my past.When the truck turned onto a dirt road I peered out at the thick evergreens that covered the terrain. The Black Mountain peaks could be seen through the space between the branches. Traveling further into the forest and turning several more times the truck skidded to a stop before a large resort-looking building."This is impressive," I said honestly and the two men in front agreed."You're going to be taken to the Alpha's office for him to question you and decide your fate," one of them growled. Not giving either man a difficult time I simply nodded and followed their instructions. Glancing around I got the sense that this pack was very dedicated to their Alpha and very powerful. We headed into the large building that w

    Raija's povAfter tossing and turning the entire night. I sat up in the daybed confused about where I was and why I dreamt about a large tan wolf. Rubbing my eyes I hiss hearing my mom tapping on my door."Wake up! The shop opens in thirty minutes," she said firmly. Getting dressed in a zombie-like state I shuffled toward the bathroom and unbraided my hair. I wasn't a morning person nor a people person but I didn't want to retaliate. My mother would simply have me drink some coffee made of mushrooms and I would be fine.Entering the tiny kitchen Simona already had a cup prepared and handed it to me."You know Raija, the early bird gets the worm!"Curling my lip I replied, "And they can keep it, worms are disgusting."While I was sipping on the warm drink my mother decided that it was the perfect time to remind me of my "date" for that evening."The Johnson's son will be here at six to pick you up tonight, I will choose an outfit for you." Glaring back at her I swallowed uncomfortably

    Raija's povWatching my mother answer the telephone and give me the "eye" I frowned. I grabbed my new cell phone, added my mom's number, and stuffed it into my purse. I would have it in case there was a need for me to dial 911. "Brock is out front!""I will go out back and down the metal stairs in the alleyway," I muttered. Smiling, she told me she would watch me through the window. Not creepy at all, Mom!Taking my time going down the stairs I inhaled deeply as I turned the corner of the building and saw the back of my date. Brock was wearing black jeans and a gray dress shirt. "Hey, I'm here," I said rather bitterly. Once he turned I swallowed uncomfortably. Brock Johnson had changed and didn't look at all like the lanky dork I remembered from school. His hair was black and nicely styled making his green eyes pop. Still, I wasn't enamored, oh hell no, I felt a shiver go down my backbone in alert. I wondered if what Alpha Daniel had said was true about his family joining the other

    Axel's povWatching Raija take her cell phone from her purse and hand it to me made me feel giddy. Her sitting next to me was giving me joy by basking in her scent. It was intoxicating."Give me the number Alpha," I asked as I readied a new contact in her phone. I typed my name as Mate snickering as I did. After entering the digits Daniel gave me I handed the cell phone back to Raija. Brushing her fingers with mine caused me to grit my teeth from the intense desire that coursed through me. I hoped she never discovered how easily she made me swoon. I'd willingly become a puppy for her, even beg and roll over. "On your back begging for her to climb on top!" Cota huffed wanting our mate.Raija saw what I had written and shook her head."I have to change that, my mom could see that and throw a fit.""If you must Raija, but it is true, you are my mate," I said huskily. Her eyes met mine and she grinned."I remember you wearing a skirt, Axel…did you?" Growing uncomfortable and seeing Dani

    Raija's povAfter ending the call with Axel I hugged Sawyer to my chest."I told him that I liked him, Sawyer!" Biting my lip over thinking about my Mom's reaction if she had heard my confession made me suddenly shiver.Brock was her choice but he just wasn't the one to make my heart race. "That Brock boy is disgusting," I murmured to my cat and he meowed in response. My phone dinged and I read the message Axel had sent and giggled. My heart pounding in my chest was a sure sign that Axel was who I should be dating. Sitting up quickly I scrolled through the apps on my phone in search of the calendar to see when the next full moon was. Counting the days I had nine to wait. Frowning about having to deal with my mom forcing me to date a person that I had no interest in was going to drive me to the brink of insanity. "I could just go with it and trick her into believing that I had a change of heart," I mused as I tapped on Sawyer's fur. "I will do a spell that will keep her from seein

    Axel's povI slept peacefully and in delightful spirits. I was looking forward to the new day to see Raija. The morning seemed to damper my spirits once I glanced outside to see a cloudy day. I grabbed my blue jeans and shimmied them up my legs. Turning to the loud knocks from Nick's connecting door I shouted enter. Nick came in looking bright-eyed."My dad, I mean the Alpha said to tell you that you have the day off and I'm supposed to "babysit" you so you stay out of trouble," he mumbled sourly. Smiling, I snickered at him looking so disappointed."Great, you can join me while I go and watch my mate's date!"Nick creased his brow and gasped."Your mate is going on a date that's not with you? Seems rather odd don't you think?" Shaking my head I slipped on a t-shirt and said," My Mate is Simona's daughter and her mother set up the date for today at the city park. I want to go down the block from their store and watch."Nick laughed, "You sound like an everyday stalker but what the h

    Axel's povNick finally made it safely to the pack house and due to the rain, most of the pack members were lounging around inside of their section. Their faces peered out of the windows watching us as we drove up the slippery mud drive in front of the Alpha's section."Take her up to your room. If the witches arrive they won't look there," Nick suggested. "Her mother knows exactly where my room is because your dad took her there the last time she was here!"Nick huffed and went to help me with the front door. Getting out with the rain pelting me I sighed in irritation. Opening the back door I peered down at my tiny mate. Gathering Raija in my arms I grin at her due to her intoxicating scent filling my sensitive nose."Sorry mate, you might get wet," I laughed at the suggestive nature of my words. Raija was still glaring at me, dampening my raunchy humor. Lifting her, I carried her quickly to the door Nick held open for me and went to the stairs. As we were ascending Daniel came down

    Raija's povScrambling myself off of Axel's prone body I quickly slipped on the borrowed t-shirt feeling mortified at being naked yet again in the wolfman's presence. "I don't know how we can get your cat and crystals without your mom knowing, mate," Axel replied. Standing and glad the shirt went to my knees I asked Nick if he could escort me to the clothing room so I could get a few things. Axel grunted sourly and I glared at him getting up off the floor."Seriously? You're not going to acknowledge that I saved you from plummeting to your almost certain death!?" Rolling my eyes I curled my lip and laughed."I was perfectly fine and could have maneuvered back into the window had you not startled me by yanking in my legs!""I was trying to help you get down, so ungrateful," he growled "For your information, I can climb very well sir, and just needed the window opened. Thanks for causing my shirt to fall off and making me flash the Alpha's son!" Nick chuckled and gestured for me to

    Raija’s povAxel had been correct about the Worthington residents believing that the entire town had suffered a mass hysteria event. I had been hearing the rumors since the grand opening of my holistic store. Knowing the true cause of the missing residents I pretended to be as shocked as they all were. Calling my shop Natural Remedies I was giddy with excitement on its opening day and seeing old Pete waving at me from across the street. I was glad the older man had returned and hadn't been murdered.Heavily pregnant I was restocking the shelves days later on a fine spring morning and in jovial spirits. Atlas and Lucas had entered and were searching for some of my handmade protection rings.“More? Didn't you come just yesterday and grab ten? Aren't you supposed to be in school today at the pack house?”Looking sheepishly at me, my son nodded and said, “Yeah but we're selling them there and making money for the pack. The classroom got out early so I went to my practice with Atlas.” E

Half of the pack wants to stay here while the other wants to go back. They miss having seasons,” he said with a sigh. Glancing over at the pack members busy doing chores on my dad's property I raised my brow.“I want to reopen the store I own. I liked doing it but then again I really dislike snow,” I muttered biting my lip.“Who will be the Alpha here?”Axel suggested Nick and Wyatt.“I know them both and they are decent. Are you saying that we take the members that wish to return and make it our very own pack?”Nodding my head Axel smiled and kissed me.Staring into my eyes he said, “ You should rename it so we all have a fresh start.”Grinning slightly I suggested that we be called the Lugh Light Pack and

    Raija’s povAxel lifted me and twirled me around in the frigid night air smiling joyfully. My blanket was loosened and I squealed as the movement caused the coldness to touch my bare flesh.“Oops! I forgot that you're still in the buff,” he chuckled then planted a kiss on my lips.Kissing him back I smiled against his mouth and suggested that we head home. He placed me back into the vehicle and hurried to the driver's side. As he drove I thought about how my life had changed so drastically over the past several months and rubbed my eyes.“So grim reapers, elves, and vampires exist?”Side-eyeing me with a smirk, Axel nodded.“Yep, and a whole variety of other things as well. I'm not sure of Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster because I haven't seen them but I have the others,” he replied. “Simona kept me closeted so I was only ever aware of the werewolves. I didn't even know Sawyer was a werecat. It all makes me feel inadequate as a witch,” I muttered sourly.“But you have the knowledge

    Raija’s povI glanced back to try and see who was aiming at me and saw the shadow of a man with a rifle. Before I moved another dark mass approached and backhanded the fellow causing the shot to fire up into the air.“Let's go, Rinn!”Rinn jumped down the cliff and was buried neck-deep in the snow which started to move underneath her.“Brilliant wolf, you started an avalanche,” I cursed.“Don't worry I am in complete control. Don't distract me,” she growled and leaped through the moving snow toward a Stony ledge. Diving under it she scanned the area and bound out to the cluster of fir trees unaffected by the raging white wave. Tucked against the trees Rinn was panting heavily. Hearing a howl coming from below her strength renewed. “Was that Cota?” Pffting me she said sarcastically, “Who else would it be silly.”“Don't be a bitch, Rinn!”Chortling, she raced down the cliff. We paused at a precarious drop-off that caused her to whine and pace along the edge.“I've told Cota that you

I was unconscious,” I stammered, causing him to grunt. After a few more curious looks from him, he grew silent and continued traversing through the thick woods and up the incline. “I only ask because you were strapped down with leather straps, no pants with claw marks down your legs, and smelled strongly of sulfur,” he admitted. My eyes began to tear as I buried my face in his shirt.“I don't remember,” I murmured.“Is Simona still alive?” I questioned with a sniffle.“Yeah, she was helping that demon get to safety,” he responded bitterly. “When we get to the compound I'm taking you straight to the infir

Running his fingers through my hair and tucking it behind my ears he gazed at me compassionately.“I can't believe that I only wanted you in order to get my pack back. Now I'm an Alpha yet my pack is elsewhere,” he sighed.Grinning slightly I said, “They're safe and will return once the threat is dealt with. How is Worthington? Are there any humans left or is it all abandoned now?”Sh

    Raija’s povAfter our wolf mating, I fell asleep with Rinn cuddled up next to Cota. Our bond intensified when we joined and I felt so much contentment with him by my side that I shared some of my magic with him. Grinning slightly I figured that I would ask Atticus what Axel would be capable of and Sawyer to teach him once I discovered if he had indeed gained some of my life magic.Feeling my mate stretching I shifted into my human form and did the same.“Are you feeling alright? You're not injured? The floor isn't very comfortable,” he said, leaning over my face.Smiling up at him I pulled him closer and gave him a soft kiss.“I feel incredible, Axel and so does Rinn.”“I was concerned about you getting rug burns,” he teased.“Ha ha, Mister. I don't think wolves get rug burns,” I giggled as I stood and glanced out at the window to see the sun peeking out.“Did we sleep for an entire day?”Axel nodded, “Yep, it appears so.”“I want my dad to check on Lucas and make sure my grandfather

    Raija’s povWe raced to the fence separating our pack lands. Axel had to shift and lift Stephanie over the fence and I scrambled underneath. Panting heavily I heard the howling getting closer and eyed my mate.“They won't come on this land. If they do, I'm battling them both,” he growled forcefully. “I will help,” Rinn asserted and I grinned slightly and told her I agreed with her. Shaking his head, Axel glanced down at us.“No Raija, you and Rinn will watch over Stephanie and keep her protected. I'm much stronger now that I have you,” he said firmly. Glancing back over at the Shadow Moon Pack lands I saw two pairs of red glowing eyes approaching within dark inky wolf shapes and gritted my teeth.“They aren't normal wolves any longer!”I started chanting as they got closer. I hoped that I could weaken whatever force was driving them to us. Nothing I said seemed to stop their progression.“Protect Stephanie,” Axel growled as he shifted into Cota. The two black wolves jumped the fen

    Raija’s povShifting once again I was shocked to have the necklace dangling from Rinn’s neck like a collar. My grandfather must have used his magic to allow for it to remain during my transformations.Following Cota down a steep path through the hillside I was surprised that he went directly to the place where the dead were. Scanning the people I frowned seeing they were mostly lower witches and showed no sign of visible injuries or cause of their death. I just knew that Zelos fed from them, sucking the life force from them to regenerate himself. Sickened from the thought I looked around for Axel.“He is searching for any signs of Nick,” Rinn informed me. Traveling away from the horrid smell I spied a shiny object in the snow. Seeing it was a tourmaline ring I had Nick wear I searched for Axel and just told him I found it with a thought. “Where are you?” he responded.“Northeast by the trees. The ring is Nick's’ and must have fallen off when he shifted. Seeing a pile of discarded cl
