Doctor Thomas POV These Pack hospitals frustrated me. They had not advanced themselves as doctors to know current trends or opportunities in managing silver or wolfsbane poisoning. As such I was facing a critical challenge with the Alpha and his current silver exposure. And this was a bigger Pack. With smaller Pack hospitals it would be an even more dire situation. Because the Luna is a silver wolf right now is largely what I am banking on to help save her mate. I walk out of the office I had been using and see a couple nurses standing at the counter. They give me their best smiles and come fuck me looks. I smirk at them. It was not the first time I had been hit on and I knew it would not be the last. I had enjoyed my share of women but right now I was focused on saving this Alpha. I walk into the Alpha’s room and not surprisingly I see the Luna sitting with him. She is holding his hand and I can hear her whispering words of encouragemen
Elizabeth POV I walk down to Kinsley’s room quickly. I tap on the door, but I hear nothing, so I walk into the room quietly. I see Stan slumped in the chair beside Kinsley’s bed. She is strapped to the bed so she cannot harm others or herself. I can see she is sweating and duck out to ask a nurse to come and put cool clothes on her body. “Once she has cooled back down, change the sheets and ensure she is comfortable at all times,” I say disgusted that I would have to remind the staff to do so. It was like they had already written her off. I walk over to Stan and touch his shoulder softly. He jumps afraid he missed something. He sits back down quickly putting his face in his hands, “Luna, I am sorry. I should have come to you,” he says as he looks up at me. “How is Carter?” he asks. I fill him in on Carter and the possibility of helping him. “That is great news. I wish I could say the same, but right now, I do not know what else
Elizabeth POV We were rushing in to do the surgery for Carter. My heart was in my mouth as I tried to remember everything Thomas had told me. I would need to wait until he extracted the silver bullet from his spine before entering the operating room. He wanted as few people and germs present as possible during the various stages of the operation. I paced impatiently waiting for my turn to support Carter. I had been praying to the Moon Goddess incessantly since they wheeled Carter away from me. Before they took him away, I had a few personal words with him. The most important was how much I loved him. How much I needed him to survive for me. Whatever happened we would deal with together. I knew he was the strongest person I had ever met and if anyone could fight this, he could. The doctor coming with the antidote for Kinsley had not arrived yet. Her flight hit a delay, so she was behind schedule. It was adding to the tension surrounding the
Stan POV I slowly walk back towards Kinsley’s room. I feel guilty knowing I am dragging my feet. I needed a break from simply staring at my mate. I could see her changing in front of my eyes. Her scent continued to change, and I could see my mark fading on her body. When I checked the mirror her mark on me was also fading. I was pissed that I had not been there to help protect her from the rogues who had attacked her. I would never forgive myself for leaving her on her own. None of it made sense. I was trying to figure out the end game for the rogues. It was rare that an Alpha could work with rogues, but we all agreed this was not a regular Alpha. He was toxic in his own right. As I stood outside of Kinsley’s room considering if it was worth talking to Luna Nancy to find out more, I heard a scream from inside Kinsley’s room. I run in and am horrified to see the bite she had sustained oozing a discolored fluid. The doctor rushes in, “It is
Elizabeth POV “Luna, I need you to leave!” Thomas says to me as he tries to save Carter. “I am not leaving,” I say staying away from the area he is working. The sound of the flatline is pressing on my chest. The longer that piercing sound goes on, the more I realize I could lose him. I am losing him. Suddenly it stops. There is deafening silence. And then one beep. And another. And another. Coming back stronger, “We got him back,” Thomas says before adding, “Let’s close him up. Luna, he is back; now please step out,” he requests. I take one last look at Carter and then nod stepping out of the operating room. I step out and slide down the wall sitting with my knees up against my chest. Everything has come crashing down on me. All my fears and worries as I sit there with the emotions falling out of me before I can process what is happening. I feel someone come and sit next to me, but I cannot see who it is for the tears. I wi
Stan POV “Why did you do it?” I ask Tamara again. “I told you; he has my sister. He was blackmailing me to do his bidding,” Tamara says. “Why didn’t you come to the Alpha or me for help?” I ask. “He has eyes everywhere. He said he would know if I went to you for help,” she replies exhaustedly. “It was why I tried to put myself around you all so much. It is why I tried to cause Elizabeth to doubt herself,” she says as tears rose in her eyes. “I just need to get my sister back,” she says. “She is only sixteen. Goddess knows what he has done to her,” she adds. “What do you know about rogue bites?” I ask her to change the subject. She had been repeating the same, consistent answers for the past hour. “Someone was bit? Take me to them, I can help,” she says quickly standing in front of me. “They were bit a couple days ago. They have received an antidote, but are not responding well,” I offer to her. “Dammit. I told these doctor
Stan POV I hold Tamara by her throat when Elizabeth pulls me off her. “Stan, Kinsley needs you right now,” she says pulling me away from Tamara towards Kinsley. I move to stand beside her, “What do I do to help her?” I ask anybody who will guide me. “Touch her, Beta; that will help,” the other doctor says. “I can barely feel the sparks between us,” I mutter. “That is normal, they will start to come back as the medication starts to work. She must be infected worse than we realized to have her body react in that way,” Tamara says as she rubs her throat. Her voice is noticeably hoarse. I can feel Thomas move around to check Tamara’s neck before he wraps her in his arms. I can tell Tamara is crying, but I do not turn around. I am focused on Kinsley and trying to help her get through this.Elizabeth POV “I am going to go check on Carter. I will be right back,” I murmur to Stan who nods continuing to focus on Kinsley. I smile at Thom
Alpha Carter POV I had made it back. I had been struggling in my own mind for the past couple days. Trying to communicate with Elizabeth to let her know I was still here. When I finally felt her in my arms, felt the sparks between us, and felt that I could move I felt my own tears of relief. Looking down to see her in my arms was overwhelming. I never thought I would do it again. “What do you mean?” I ask confused how Elizabeth had saved me. “She is a silver wolf. She is a blessing to this Pack in more ways than one,” Thomas says to me. I look at Elizabeth waiting for an explanation. “Apparently I can heal someone who has been affected by silver poisoning,” she shares with me. I stare at her in awe. I knew she was a blessing to me on her own. Knowing she had more hidden talents blew me away. “How did we not know that?” I asked her wondering what else she could do. “I have to say, Alpha, that it comes down to your medical staff not taking

Good day Everyone I wanted to share a quick update. I am working on the draft for Eric's story and expect to start it the week of May 6, 2024. I hope you will be as excited as I am to write the story. His will have a couple interesting twists but suffice to say he will find his mate. The question ... will he accept her :) After that we will see where we go but I do want to write the stories for the pups after they are grown. Any feedback is always welcome. Let me know if you are excited to read the story or follow me on my socials to get updates. Ellie xo
Elizabeth’s POV The past six months had been a rush of emotions. Watching CJ grow was unbelievable. He was growing fast already walking. He was ahead of the normal schedule of children, but we have realized our boy was special beyond what we could even fathom at this point. We loved him and would keep him a child as long as we could. Stan and Kinsley had a beautiful little girl. She was two months old. CJ loved little Leslie from the moment he saw her. He always went to see her before anyone else got a chance to say hello to her. He always touched her face softly giving her little kisses. We all joked wouldn’t it be cute if they were mates when they grew up. Eric had not found his mate yet. He had just returned home from a two-month search but with no luck. He was still hopeful, but I could tell he was somewhat disappointed that his search had not yielded him success yet. I kept encouraging him as best I could even to the point of suggest
Elizabeth POV I had been in labour for a while now. I had started pushing an hour ago. I knew I was having a big baby boy, but I do not think anything prepared me for this. Ashley was throwing all her strength into me. I was getting exhausted and angry. Carter was both amazing and annoying at the same time. His words of encouragement were endearing, but I really wanted to punch him in the nuts so he would have a sense of how ridiculous his words really were. The past few months had been a whirlwind. I had survived the two weeks of bed rest. My mother had brought me a lot of things to work on during that time. And I was healthy and given the nod to go back to regular activities with normal precautions. Before I knew it the time had flown by and here, I was birthing my first pup. The rate I was going this could be my last one. “One more push, my Queen,” the doctor says encouragingly. I take a deep breath and push with all my might. With th
Carter POV I gently pick Elizabeth up in my arms. “Elizabeth,” I repeat but she does not respond. There are snarls and cries of pain as I turn to see what is happening. The two sisters are fighting. The warriors are standing by ready to jump in to assist the former Queen. But all respect her need to fight her sister for all that she stole from her. I watch helplessly as I see Elizabeth’s mother toss her sister in the air. As she comes down her mother reaches for her aunt and slams her into the ground. All you could hear was a yelp and the crushing of bones. “How dare you ever think you had a right to destroy my life! How dare you steal a child from her parents! How dare you steal so much from my mate! You deserve so much more but it is time for you to die!” the former Queen yells. Her sister is begging for her life, but the former Queen will hear nothing of it. She moves forward and places her sister’s head in her hands. She starts twist
Elizabeth POV “You!” I scream. I am staring in shock at the person in front of me. “Where did you come from?” I demand as I move to cover Carter’s body. He was defenceless and I would not sit back while someone attacked us. “Surprised to see me?” the person asks. “I am surprised you are still alive,” I say as I move into position in the event they attacked. Moving towards me, “But daughter dearest, I have missed you,” she replies. “You are not my mother,” I spit at her. “My someone is feisty,” she says with a smirk. “Who knew you had it in you?” she asks. “You knew all along,” I say to her. “What kind of sick monster does what you did?” I ask her. “I would like to know that myself,” a voice from behind me says. I turn to see my mother and a group of warriors behind me. I turn around and smirk at the woman in front of me who has managed to get closer to me. “The kind of woman who was sick of her sister getting everything she wanted,” my a
Elizabeth POV The last two weeks had been a blur. We had an amazing feast the night of our coronation, and then we were in the whirlwind of handing over responsibilities for the Kingdom. Carter and I were both sitting in my office on the couch that I had brought in. I had my feet in Carter’s lap as he rubbed them. “Mmmm that feels good,” I murmur as my eyes half close. We had just finished another gruelling day of learning and needed a few minutes to ourselves before we went to supper with those who lived in the Palace. We had started that last week. Carter missed having meals with his Pack, so we started that tradition. Those living within the Palace loved the idea and had embraced being a part of a bigger family. It did not mean everyone joined every night, but it gave people options. The cooking team loved it as well. They got to serve people more than just waiting for a special event. Carter starts to massage up my calve m
Alpha Carter POV “I am back!” I hear in my mind. “Max?” I ask tentatively through our mind-link. “It is me,” he replies excitedly. “I am so grateful to have you back,” I reply. “Me too. Wherever I was it was a very dark and lonely place,” he shares with me. I want to hear exactly what he remembers happening but the Elder in front of me clears his throat. “May we continue Alpha?” he asks. I nod telling Max I want all the details. Knowing we were in the middle of a ceremony and his mate was beside him was enough to settle him. Having completed the transfer of blood, I take Elizabeth’s hand in mine and give it a squeeze. She smiles excitedly, knowing Max was back. The third Elder comes forward. “And now we will do the transfer of the crowns signifying the future,” he says as the King and Queen move forward. Each kneel before the Elder and their crowns are removed for the last time. Both are holding hands as the removal takes place. You c
Alpha Carter POV As Elizabeth and I walked up the aisle, I could not help but become a little nostalgic. Thinking about where we had been to where we are now. Having overcome so many hurdles. So many things that seemed against us being together. But here we were … about to become Queen and King of the Kingdom. I had never aspired to become King. It had never been something I had remotely considered. Having met with the current King this week and learned more about what he did and the opportunities I would have to make a difference in the wolf community excited me. And now I felt like a fool for fighting so hard against it. I could feel Elizabeth’s small hand on my arm as we walked up the aisle following her parents. I could feel the stares and the excitement in the room for the future. For the next generation to take over. What I felt stressed about was my inability to shift tonight. The people present knew of my injury and were advised as
