last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Once I had gotten ready into some fresh clothes, I wonder into the bedroom to find Archer, laying down on the bed with his eyes closed, I guess he was also not used to getting up at this time. With a smile, I walk over and poke him gently in the head to see if he was simply resting his eyes or had fallen asleep whilst waiting for me.

“Wakey wakey Mr Alpha, I thought we had an important appointment we needed to attend.” I smile still continuing to poke the side of his head, but suddenly, arms wrap around my waist, and I’m pulled towards him.

Rolling me over so I was now laying beside Archer, he snuggles into my neck with that same devilish smirk on his lips. For a moment, I was a little discombobulated, not a second ago, I was on my feet but now I’m laying in bed snuggled up as though it was time for sleep.

“Allow me to lay here for a moment with your scent.” He grumbles into my neck as I lay there staring at him, instinctively, my hand began to slowly run through his silky hair,

    It was as though my brain couldn’t quite comprehend what it was seeing and who it was seeing all at the same time, my feet causing me to come to an abrupt halt as Hadwin and I locked eyes. Such shock filling my face but on his, such happiness and relief now he had seen me in the flesh once again. Tears pricked my eyes the longer that I would look at him, I had sort of accepted in my mind that I may never get to see him or my father ever again, as much as it caused such pain to spread through me, I knew I couldn’t dwell on those feelings. But now he was stood only a few feet away from me, the hurt that I once felt came right back. I slowly turn my head to look over at Archer, who was already staring down at me as like he knew what was going around my mind. With a silent nod of his head giving me permission, I waste no time, bolting away from Archer and his men and into my older brothers open arms, who picked me up and held me so tightly. Even the regular smell of my brother allowed

    Walking back through the much lighter woods due to the sun fully rising, a very different feeling spread throughout my body than last time. Before, I didn’t have any idea where we were going or why we were going there, I assumed it would be to meet some people that Archer knew and wanted to introduce me as his mate, not my own brother! I had been so worried about my family since I left, I have seen first hand the dynamic between my father and Hadwin, there have been so many times I’ve had to jump in the middle before a huge physical altercation began to break out between the pair. I had worried that now I wasn’t there to be the referee, that one of them would step out of line and a huge fight would occur and with both of their mentalities, I knew neither would back down until it was too late and one of them was killed. But now I had seen Hadwin and knew that he was doing okay without me, it was as though I could let out a breath of fresh air and relax a little. Well until my fathe

    Archer walks through the pack house on the way to his office for the meeting with Emmett, the invisible rumble of such immense power as his feet continue to pound on the ground under him. Any person in his vicinity instinctively back away due to the black cloud of power, anger and such a pure outpouring of hatred which oozed from him like a deep wound, such a feeling that sent shivers down the spines of his enemies and strangers alike. But one thing which most noticed was different in that moment, was the smile on his lips. Normally, whenever the pack members would look to their Alpha, he wore a deep snarl on his face and truly, seemed to resemble someone you can only describe as a ticking time bomb, one wrong move, he could blow up in your face without warning. So, when people saw the happier emotion on his face, they all began to wonder if their new Luna was able to change the Alpha and his view on the world, all hopeful that the dynamic the pack has been under for longer than the

    After I had arrived at the training grounds, as like I expected, the trainer Greg began to ask me once again if I wanted to help train some of the fighters. That topic was still a sore subject for me as I truly, didn’t want to feel as though I was betraying my fathers pack and its members by helping the individuals who have invaded twice already. Seeing that I was still a little apprehensive, Greg begins to show me around the training facility and explaining how things work and what he would want from me. I do have to say one thing, the training grounds here compared to those at my fathers are the most advanced I have ever seen. They have an endless amount of equipment and open space to prepare any person for battle, in some ways, I wanted to agree to help just to try out the equipment. “I have to believe that with your training and knowledge, you would help our fighters strive to even bigger heights than they already are. It is clear that you have such an intimate experience of h

    I continued marching down the path closer to the pack house, the same lecture that my father would repeat any chance that he would get whilst I was growing up went around in my head continuously. I should have known the topic of my wolf would come up at some point, how do I approach the situation with Archer without him thinking I’m hiding something, which I definitely am! Before I could reach the steps to begin my climb into the pack house, my hand is taken from behind me, and I’m pulled right back. I didn’t need to turn around to know who it was, I heard him following me the entire way back and the sparks were a dead giveaway. “Where do you think you’re going, we were having a conversation.” Archer informs me as I’m turned around to look at him, but I simply shake my head pulling my hand back out of his grasp. “I said what I needed to, I don’t want to go on a run and that’s final.” I tell him coldly before beginning my climb up the steps and arriving in the lobby of the pack h

    I remain where I stood staring at Archer for any reaction, but the longer that he continued in his silence, the deeper the fear that he was going to scream that he hated my wolf was all I could think about. Seeming to snap out of his shocked trance, he begins to slowly make his way closer to me, my entire body not moving an inch in case it sets him off. But when his hand reached over and began to run through my fur, the sparks which I always feel whenever we make contact were increased to such an intensity, I could have dropped to the floor. My wolf seeming to draw even closer to his touch, a smile soon filling Archer’s lips as he watched over me. “Sweetheart you are beautiful, I have never seen a wolf such as yours in all of my life.” He tells me still looking amazed which was the best compliment I could receive, being from him, it meant that much more. “You are truly the most beautiful creature I have ever had the privilege to lay my eyes on.” He smiled looking me in the eyes as

    The food which was prepared for us was so incredibly delicious, there were items on the plate I had never even heard about before. In my father's pack, even though I was a part of the Alpha’s family and in most, you have cooks that prepare each of your meals, my father didn’t want Hadwin and I to grow up entitled so as soon as we were old enough, we made all our meals. I don’t know about Hadwin, but I knew I didn’t have the culinary skills to pull dishes such as this off! I thought the room would be filled with an awkward tension, Archer and I have only recently had the capability to sit in a room and not be at each others' throats, metaphorically and literally. Since arriving here, I have always eaten my food alone in the bedroom I now call home, so being invited into a rather posh dining room with an elegant looking table was certainly, different. But I had to admit it, getting to sit down and eat with Archer and discuss whatever came to mind in that moment was great. I knew we ha

    Spinning around in Archer’s chair as I waited for him to return, I was left with a smile on my lips, I thought the first time I would do such a thing with a man, even though we hadn’t gone the whole way, I would feel embarrassed, but I wasn’t. I couldn’t help the feeling of pride which spread through me that I was able to make Archer feel that way. A knock on the door snaps me from my spinning glee, Emmett pushing his head through the door in a cautious manner in case Archer and I were doing the dirty in some way. With a laugh, I wave him in allowing him to see that nothing was happening in this moment. “The Alpha is just getting changed, an explosion occurred so he needed a change of clothes.” I explain with a little chuckle as he walked deeper into the room, a little shake of his head but a smile on his lips as Emmett takes a seat just in front of the desk, throwing a pile of paperwork onto the table in front of him. “You still haven’t said his name yet?” He asks sitting back

    The hours seemed to tick by ever so slowly, due to the past relationship the two packs held, it was vital that we go over each and every section of the treaty to ensure each understand the terms to prevent any confusion or anger in the years to come. I had used my powers today more than I had ever before, back at the training grounds with Archer and now when I needed to teach that disrespectful asshole a lesson. I had yet to fully grasp my powers and understand how to control them, this meant each time I used them, I was taking more and more of my energy and throwing into the sea! Now I was left sitting back in my chair forcing my eyes not to drop close as Emmett’s voice continued to read the terms out loud whilst we all followed along. “The reasoning for such a treaty was due to many factors, Alpha Cameron’s Daughter Luna Fern, now mated to Alpha Archer. But also, the growing threat from the King, this section of the treaty will not be public knowledge for obvious reasons.” Emmet

    After Archer and I had concluded the special kind of discussion, he wished us to have, he was called away to go and deal with some rouge that had been found at the edge of the border. We were both a little confused for a moment, normally, the border guards deal with rouges and only give a report to the Alpha and Luna at the end of the month detailing how many had appeared in case it becomes a problem. The guards expressed how this rouge had been saying some peculiar things, so they deemed it appropriate for the Alpha to go and speak with the rouge and find out what was happening. So, whilst Archer left to deal with some odd rouge, I went along with Emmett to his office to prepare for the peace treaty meeting we’ll be having with my family, which had already been postponed for an hour. All I could seem to do was sit on Archer’s chair, staring up at the ceiling with my mind doing many laps. I had been so overcome with an ungodly amount of rage when that man was speaking, I didn’t ta

    The longer my hands remained clenched, the more this malicious, evil and dangerous creature in front of me clawed at his throat as though his attempts were going to release the pressure. The once vibrant room seemed to grow darker with each passing second, with a freezing wind and dark invisible clouds over our heads, it was as though we were in the middle of a storm. Emmett and Archer remained either side of me, both in a state of shock as they watched me use my unearthly powers in a way none of us were expecting. “I hadn’t come across this being one of your powers through my research.” Emmett spoke watching as the man in front of us was close to passing out all together, but neither man went forward to do anything to stop it. “It’s just how I said when we first met dearest Emmett, never show anybody your full hand.” I say in my own dark and twisted voice, I had yet to use my Luna voice, but I had to imagine we were seeing a little glimmer from her in this moment. With a smir

    Once that sentence had left the repulsive man’s mouth, it was as though someone had thrown me in a lake of freezing water, my entire body felt like an ice block. I suppose I had never given it much thought on who would have dealt my mother her last blow, when you’re thrown into a sea of grief and given my young age, I was more focused on my mother no longer being there. But if I were to think of it, I would have guessed it would be the Alpha, I mean he was the Alpha after all and the man the King had appointed to get the job done. But now to hear this man tell me he was the one that truly took my mother away from me, it was as though I was hit with her loss all over again. “I remember the day well, I was the lead fighter at the time so when Alpha Alexander came to me the previous night and explained the mission, I was more than ready to heed his orders and do what I could to ensure the mission was a success.” The man begins to say recounting the day, whilst I still stood frozen in p

    Once the training session had concluded, Archer and I didn’t have time to sit down and rest, we had to get back, showered and off to our next task of the day. I had offhandedly told Archer the night of my birthday that I wanted to attend one of his meetings with the officials, I had forgotten all about it until Emmett let it slip that I was attending after the King’s visit. I wasn’t too sure what kind of things are spoken about in these meetings, I know with me being an Alpha’s daughter, I should know all the intricate details that come with running and maintaining a pack. Most things, yes, I could write a book on but others such as official meetings, I knew nothing about. Once my mother died, my father went insane as like you already know which in turn, changed everything our little pack used to be. The first thing to go was the number of officials and the power the ones who remained had, in most cases, the Alpha and the Luna of each pack set the rules and decide what they should

    After getting to train with Archer a little more one to one and attempting to theorise what other powers I may have and what emotions could trigger them, Archer explained how he wanted to stand in and see what progress I had been able to make with the group of fighters I train with Greg. It’s always nice to hear what positive things people have to say about the men, I could see first hand what they were like before, the disrespect that some of them had shown to me when I first arrived, I did worry they would never accept me. After some work, they are now some of the nicest men I have met and are always the first to offer me some help in training. I knew when Greg gave me the fighters, not many people held high hopes for me or them, but I’m glad we’ve been able to prove them all wrong. Archer and I stood in the little equipment building as the men began to file into the training ground, most were laughing and joking with one another whilst Archer watched. “Are you coming out with

    The feeling of someone placing long kisses on my neck begins to stir me out of my sleep, groaning in annoyance and turning away slightly to continue with my beauty rest, I attempt to ignore it all. But the longer this person trailed kisses all over my skin, the more my wolf purred in excitement filling my body with such a rush of energy that I couldn’t have fallen back to sleep even if I tried! “I know you’re no longer asleep.” Archer’s raspy morning voice whispers into my ear, his action sending such intense shivers to rush through my body allowing my eyes to open. “Yes Mr Alpha, how can I help you?” I ask turning my face to look at him laying beside me with the biggest smirk on his lips, his face drawing even closer to mine. “In the past, that name had the ability to fill me with such anger, but now you have used it in some of our most intermit moments, it tends to have the opposite effect.” He whispers but now such a deep feeling of desire clung to each of his words, where I

    Walking towards the pack house to go and see Archer, I was hit with many differing emotions. The first was such a wave of relief and happiness, this meeting had been held over our heads for days now, with what we know about the King and the awful acts that he’s inflicted onto me and my family, no one was to know where this meeting was going to go and how far the King was planning on heading until he got exactly what he wanted. But now I was walking back and didn’t see any damage to the exterior of the pack and buildings from some kind of King filled rage, I had to assume the meeting had gone well or ended civilly. But due to the many unknowns, I was left asking myself what the King truly wanted to talk about, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to predict it was all about me and the powers he had forced onto me all those years ago. Could he be here to tell us that what happened was a mistake, and he was going to leave me alone? I knew likeness of that was slim to none, but I had to t

    The longer that I remained down in the basement, the more my entire body shook with such fear and anxiety for what may lay ahead. The man who had sent men over to my father’s pack all of those years ago to kill my mother, was now stood above me speaking with my mate. If the King had turned deadly when my mother told him I wasn’t leaving, what’s he going to do with Archer for that reason, he has had many years to sit in his boiling anger for what happened and for what didn’t go his way! The room we were in resembled so much of the cellar Hadwin and I hid in years ago, the light flicking from the ceiling swaying back at forth. The concrete of the walls and ceilings left me feeling more enclosed and worried than ever before, I was too young before to know what was happening but now, all I wanted was to be with Hadwin so he would keep me safe as like he did before.
