Malaki's POV I lay their panting while trying to catch my breath. I kick the idiot's leg off me and reach over then shove him, causing Blake to roll onto Logan. Logan laughs as he shoves Blake who goes flying back onto me. I couldn't help but laugh at this point as well, seeing as Blake's body is practically flopping around at this point. Blake finally stops laughing enough to control himself and reach out with his foot to kick Logan before reaching up and shoving me. "You guys are such assholes!" "It's not my fault my beta doesn't know how to fight." I said then quickly stood up and took off running while laughing. He growled as he throws a rock at me. Thankfully missing my head by merely an inch. "You're lucky I'm too tired to chase your ass!" "Your aim sucks too!" "My aims perfect! I just didn't feel like listening to your ass cry if I actually hit you." This asshole said causing Logan to laugh even harder. I slid to a stop and growled as I turned back and ran straight f
Trent's POV Each time I wake up it starts all over again. I wake up reaching for him, but he's not there. I wake up confused because I don't smell him and the place smells unfamiliar. I reach out for him and feel the cold bed next to me. I wake up and cry when I realize I'm alone again. It's déjà vu, although this time not as bad as the first time. I don't wake up and immediately feel like a part of my soul is dead, because it was. Losing your soulmate, you literally lose that little part of your soul that they had. It's the emptiest, loneliest, most devastating feeling in the world. I had to experience that every time I woke up. I didn't even need to reach for him, I felt it immediately. I broke down crying immediately without even opening my eyes. I woke up in the night screaming for him when the pain would return. It's like going through withdrawals. My body was literally having withdrawals from the loss of the mate bond. That's what happens, whether your mate has died or they
Logan's POV "Stop it, stop it!... What the hell? To the right a little more!" Logan yelled then let out a breath of relief when the idiot holding the other end corrected his positioning on the beam. Jacob pressed the support beam up firmly and held the crossbeam in place. "Goddess, these idiots are going to kill me, I swear!" He mumbled to himself as he grabbed onto the side and swung himself down. "That's it, I'm done for the next hour. I need a fucking break after that one!" He said before walking away to grab something to eat. "Malik!" Logan yelled into Malaki's ear. Scaring him so bad he fell out of his chair which caused Logan to laugh. Logan saw the telltale signs that he was using the link. And judging by the look on his face he was most likely linking Gabriel. He had that lovestruck look on his face even with his eyes glazed over. He snuck up on his cousin, then yelled the shortened version of his name he's used since he was little. He yelled Malik in his ear as loud
Third Person's POVLogan closes his eyes when he feels his little mate wrap his arms around him. He leans down and rests his face against the top of his mate's head for a moment before standing up and adjusting him in his arms.He begins to head back towards the pack house, wanting to get his mate out of the rain. He can feel how cold his mate is. His skin is cold to the touch and he's trembling.He paused when he realized he wasn't exactly sure where to take him. And since he's still crying so hard he decided to just ask his Alpha. He pushed on the link and was relieved when Asher opened it.After describing who he found, Asher knew exactly who it was. "He's staying in the pack house on the third floor, room five." Asher said in the link before closing it.‘Third floor?’ he wondered to himself. Confused that he would be staying on the third floor, since that's where all the high ranks stay at Michael's pack.As Logan walked through the front door his father ran to him with a blanket
Trent's POV "I know, and I appreciate that. But you couldn't help. You couldn't take the pain away, no one could..." I said, pausing to think of the right way to say the next part. Unfortunately before I could get it out he left. He walked out the door before I could stop him. Before I could say ‘no one could take my pain away until he found me. Until he spoke and touched me.’ Before I could tell him that he's the only one who's been able to take my pain away. I grabbed onto Mark as I broke down crying again. Watching him walk out of the room and walk away from me. I slid off the bed and onto my knees. My forehead dropping against Mark's chest as I cried. "Why did he leave me?" "Because Devin's an asshole. You're so much better off without him, trust me!" "Not him, my mate! Why did he leave me?" I said as I pulled back to looked at him. He looked at me and his mouth opened and closed a few times as he tried to find the right words. "I don't know, I don't know what happen
Third Person's POV Trent laid there in Logan's arms. He couldn't believe this was really happening. He really thought he was meant to spend the rest of his life alone. He thought for certain the moon Goddess didn't bless him with another mate.He laid there with his face pressed against Logan's chest. His ear pressed against him, listening to his heartbeat. Feeling the tingles against his skin. Unable to stop moving his fingers against his chest. Unable to stop touching him and feeling the sensation that he thought he would never feel again. The mate bond.... It was almost as if he was afraid to stop touching him. Afraid it would disappear and he would just be another person who wasn't meant for him.He felt so tired, he yawned as he tried to fight it. So afraid of going to sleep, afraid he might not be there when he woke up."It's not just me is it?... You feel it too right?"Trent said quiet, so sleepily.But Logan could hear it. He could hear how bad he was trying to hold on. But
Third Person's POV With everyone working so hard to help Michael's pack get ready to accommodate the rest of Asher's pack, Reid thought it was a great idea for everyone in his pack to take a break and relax. And what better way to do that than a bonfire and a cookout?The wonderful smell of a pig roasting filled the air, along with all the other delicious scents, as everyone began to show up with food they brought as their dish to pass around.Reid groans as Julian bends over, his nice tight ass looks more delicious than ever in the jeans he's wearing.'Goddess, how can a man look so amazing when he's as pregnant as Julian is?' Reid thought to himself as he reached down and adjusted himself."We should grab an extra blood bag for Grayson, he didn't drink his blood at lunch today. He was too into those damn corn dogs!" Julian said, as he stood up and turned around.He smirked when he saw Reid practically eye fucking his ass. He couldn't help but laugh at the irony of that. Here he is
Third Person's POV Theos tries to hide his smile as he points out the food he wants on his plate. He knows he probably shouldn't mess with his alpha like this, but he can't resist. Once they're back at the table he climbs into Damien's lap instead of Xavier's. Making it so Xavier has to place his plate in front of Damien. He goes straight for the Brussels sprouts and offers Damien a bite. Damien quickly turns pale and turns his face away. Theo shrugs then takes a bite and his eyes catch Xavier's as he turns back toward his plate. He sees the look on Xavier's face, his mouth hangs open and his eyes are wide as he looks at Theo. He feels Xavier pushing on the link but he doesn't open it and continues eating his brussel sprouts. Xavier looks at Theo shocked. How did he not put this together when he was putting everything on Theo's plate? Maybe because he knows he actually likes vegetables. But he was very adamant on having almost nothing but a plate full of vegetables which is unusu
Third Person's POV Jace's beautiful little body moves under Lexon. His back arches off the bed as Lexon thrusts into him. Lexon draws his hips back before pushing them forward again and feeling his little wolf's walls stretch and wrap around him. Hearing the beautiful wet sound as his mate soaks his cock. Jace's walls wrap around Lexon so tight as he moves in and out of him. Lexon's hand runs along Jace's right leg, lifting it into the air. As Lexon sinks back into his mate, he turns his head and opens his mouth. Jace cries out as Lexon's fangs sink into his calf. Warm sweet blood instantly fills Lexon's mouth as he draws his hips back. Lexon moaned at the sweet taste, and Jace whimpered. Jace looks at Lexon and still can't believe he's his. His long blonde hair, his flawless porcelain skin, his lean muscular body, and those red eyes that almost seem to be on fire as they look at him. Lexon grips Jace's hip with his right hand as he moves in and out of him. His eyes burn bright a
Third Person's POV "Come on, come on. Come on! Almost there, just a little more. Mmmm, Done!" Malaki said as he hit the save button and closed the laptop. Malaki leaned back, stretching his arms above his head, stretching his body out. He stood up, and looked around the office. The office he shares with his mate. He looks at the empty chair next to him and smiles when he sees the paper that has Gabriel's doodles all over it during his earlier phone conversation. Malaki lets his eyes roam the room, and they land on the wall that has pictures of Michael and his family on the day they became Alpha of River Pack. Malaki walks closer and looks at a young Michael. He looks at the picture above it and sees Michael's father on the day he became Alpha. Malaki looks at the picture next to Michael, the picture of himself and Gabriel, the day they became Alpha's of River Thorn Pack. And below their picture is their beautiful Luna, Justin. He looks so beautiful, so handsome! Malaki thought, a
Jimmy's POV I smile as I lay here tangled with my mate in my arms. His eyes are closed as he lays here sleeping. His beautiful lips are slightly parted as I gently caress his face. My eyes rake over his face, taking in his beauty. Remembering every feature, every curve. His red lips, his dark eyebrows, his cute little nose. My eyes go to his neck, and my heart beats faster when I see my mark. I let my fingers trail down his neck, and trace the outline of my mark before running my finger over it. I smile as I watch goosebumps spread across his body and he shivers, before his face immediately begins searching for me. His face pressed against my neck, and my heart swelled at the beautiful sound of his purr. I caress his back and he pulls his head back. I watch those beautiful blue eyes flutter open and I feel so much happiness wash over me. With my walls down, he smiles when he feels my happiness. His little hands reach up and rest against my cheek. "Good morning!" He says in his
Third Person's POV "Hey babe, I brought these documents to our room to finish them, but there's three pages I need you to sign. Can you come up here and sign these so I can put them away and be done with them." "Sure love, I'll be right there," Malaki said through the link, and Gabriel smiled as he looked around the room. A soft scent of vanilla fills the air as the candles Gabriel lit burn. Creating a warm, soft glow throughout the room. Gabriel looks at the nightstand, then moves the bottle closer to the bed. He hears then the door close in the living room, then quickly makes his way to the bedroom door. Gabriel stands just behind the door and waits for it to open. Moments later, the sound of Malaki's voice can be heard as the door opens. Before Malaki even has a chance to see what's going on, Gabriel steps forward, coming up behind Malaki, and grabbing him. Gabriel's left arm wraps around his Alpha firmly, as his right slaps over Malaki's eyes and yanks his head back. Mal
Third Person's POV "I'm so excited to see Mark today. I know it's only been 3 days since we last saw them, but It feels like it's been longer. Did you remember to pack your swim shorts? I should probably pack extra sandwiches, Anders has quite the appetite!" Trent said, and rubbed his chin as he looked off, thinking. "Yes, I definitely need to pack a few extra sandwiches! That man has a beast of an appetite!... See what I did there?" Trent said, a smile beaming on his face as he giggled, causing Logan to chuckle. "You're so cute!" Logan said, pulling Trent closer and pressing a kiss to his lips. "Oh I almost forgot to tell you, I found out the pups need hats and mittens for this coming winter, and Jeffrey at the fabric shop offered to donate yarn so I can make them! I'm so excited I get to make hats and mittens for all the little kids at the orphanage! And..." Was the last thing his mate heard. His mate couldn't take his eyes off his adorable face. He smiles at his mate's exci
Third Person's POV Coal sits on the bench in the shower with a completely spent little Omega laying across his lap, limp and out cold. A fresh mark lays upon his neck, and Coal's fingers lightly trace the outline of it as Damien washes Theo's body. Coal slowly looks up as Damien's fingers lightly trail along his arm. His eyes meet Damien's and his heart skips a beat. "We're okay. You didn't hurt us." Damien said as he reached up and cupped his Alpha's cheek. Damien looks into Coal's eyes, trying to relay his feelings. Hoping his Alpha wolf understands everything that happened, he and Theo enjoyed it... Maybe a little too much! Coal reached up, and let his finger brush over the fresh mark that lays on Damien's neck, and his little Beta's body shivered as he bit his lip. "Tell me the truth. Did I hurt you?" The Alpha wolf asked, afraid Damien was hiding it from him. It was so hard for Coal... He didn't realize how hard it would be... **** Flashback; Xavier had the front sea
Third Person's POV Coal nervously rubs his hands together as he waits for the children who should be walking through the front door any moment. 'What if they don't like me? What if they're afraid of me?' Coal couldn't help wonder. The door opens and coal sits up as three little figures race through the front door, screaming excitedly, Daddy, Papa! As they run into Damien and Theo's waiting arms. Coal looks to the door when Xander walks in, and he doesn't look too happy. He glares at Coal with his hands in a tight fist. Coal stands up as Xander approaches him. Coal's eyes widen as Xander's eyes turn red. "What the?" Coal said as he took a step back. Last time he checked, Damien's father was a wolf, not a hybrid vampire! "Yeah, a few things have changed since you've been gone!" "Father! Don't!" "No, give me a moment," Xander said, holding his hand out toward his son to stop him. Xander's fangs extend, and Coal's eyes widen as he looks at Xander's fangs and red eyes. "Yo
Third Person's POV "No sweetie, you don't have to do this!" He said as he backed away, holding his hands in the air, and praying she doesn't do it. "NO!" Silas yelled, holding his hands in front of his face. Silas took a sharp breath in, and immediately began coughing, His lungs burning as he took a deep breath in of flour... An adorable little giggling voice backed away as the not-so-scary Vampire choked on flour. Silas brought both hands to his face, trying to wipe the flour off. His eyes opened, and Silas' flour-covered face looked at a giggling little Evelyn, who grabbed her knees as she leaned forward laughing at the silly vampire. A rumble rose up Silas's throat, and Evelyn's eyes widened before she screeched, and turned on her heels, taking off as fast as she could. Her little high-pitched voice screams as Silas's voice roars behind her, making sure he doesn't catch her, but scaring her as he stays on her heel. Evelyn falls into a fit of giggles as she's finally scoop
Third Person's POV Coal watched as Damien fed their little bundle of joy. Coal turned his attention to the little Omega sitting next to him, staring at him with his big beautiful green eyes. "Your eyes are truly beautiful, they're the most exotic thing I've ever seen!" Coal said as he reached up and ran his fingers down the side of Theo's face. He smiled as he watched the blush spread across his cheeks. Theo felt his cheeks heat up at the compliment. He's not sure why he feels so nervous with Coal. It's still Xavier, Godric, and Bear. They are all still there, he can sense them. But he knows so little about Coal. He knows something bad happened before he met them. He doesn't know the exact details. But he knows Coal was pretty much going feral, and hurt Damien, and wanted to continue hurting Damien. Xavier had his wolf killed in order to protect Damien. He always wondered what his Alpha wolf was like. But when he asked Damien, he couldn't tell Theo, because he never got to know
