Ian's POV For the second morning in a row I woke up surprised to see Silas sleeping with me. I really thought I would be a rejected mate and be in pain right now instead of laying here beside him. Laying here looking down at his handsome face as he sleeps. He looks like a completely different person when he sleeps. When he's awake, he's this strong, closed off person with a hard face or completely emotionless. But when he sleeps, he looks so peaceful and relaxed. He looks so gentle and kind. I lay here next to him with my chest resting against him and my head propped up on my hand as I look down at him. This time he has no shirt on and I can feel his chest against mine. I let my hand roam against his skin, feeling the rise and fall of his muscles as I lightly trace them with my fingertips. I was mesmerized, watching my fingers trace his skin, that I didn't realize he was awake. I froze when I looked up and saw Silas staring at me. He was so quiet, he never made a noise nor di
Azrael's POV I'm used to feeling cold, my skin itself is cool to the touch. The cold has never bothered me, it can't. I could walk outside in the middle of winter with snow 4 ft high, completely naked and not be bothered by the cold.... But I never thought I'd wake up feeling warm. Every time I have woken up since I've met him, I feel warmer than I've ever felt in my entire life. His body radiates heat, and I wake up feeling it each time. Even with my cool skin against his all night, he still wakes up, hot as a furnace that's burning on high. Azrael thought to himself as he nuzzled his face against Blake's chest before lifting his head to look down at him. He was surprised, this time he was practically laying completely on top of him. And not all, for the first time in his life, he actually feels sore, and not his muscles. He winced when he sat up and felt a pain in his backside. He wanted to glare down at the man that caused that pain, but when he looked down he saw his mate so
Third Person's POV Because of the blood bond Silas has with Azrael, he felt his pain and he felt the guardians taking him. He knew it was them because he recognized Josephine's ability. Only two people can cause that type of pain and he knows Renwick's not there. That only leaves Josephine. Ian held on for dear life as Silas raced back to Thaddeus's. He reached Thaddeus's territory in just over 20 minutes and another 5 minutes to make it to the exact spot where they took Azrael. He sat Ian down next to Blake, who was on the ground crying. Silas stood in front of them, staring off in the direction they left with Azrael. He took a few steps in that direction before he dropped to his knees and his face dropped into his hands. "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry Azrael!" Silas whispered. Silas and Azrael share a blood bond, but not the kind you make with a life partner. It's the kind you make if you are a guardian, a lead guardian like Silas and you choose your partner to work with. It's
Third Person's POV Silas finally pries himself off the ground then turns and grabbed Ian. It didn't take long before they were back at the main pack house Silas set Ian down at the bottom of the stairs. "Go to the room and lock the door." "But I want to go with you." Ian said. "This is not the time to argue with me, go to the room!" "I'm not trying to argue, I just don't wa..." Ian started to say before Silas's voice boomed. "You will do as I say now! Go upstairs to the room and lock the damn door before I take you up there myself!" Silas yells, every ounce of authority he has. He pushes out and Ian flinches back in shock. The sound of Silas's voice startled him. It was so loud and demanding. He never felt that kind of power coming from Silas before and he's never yelled at him like that before. And judging by the way Silas is staring at him with a firm look on his face, says he doesn't care that he just hurt his feelings. The look on his face told Ian he was moments away fr
Third Person's POV "Here, rub him down with this now." Addison hears Angelica say to Maddox as she passes a bowl of a warm thick salve she just prepared for Lucian. Even though it's already been 5 days, Addison's heart still breaks when she looks at Lucian and sees what he's going through. Neither Maddox, nor Addison had ever heard of such a thing, then again they didn't know Angels were still around until they stumbled across theirs. Lucian had shed all his feathers and all the skin on his wings, along with all the skin on his entire body. As the body regenerates and grows new skin, the old skin is forced to peel and fall off. The new skin is extremely delicate and painful, even to the touch. It's thin, red and dries extremely fast. If it's not kept moisturized with the mixture that Angelica has made, his new skin will dry crack bleed and peel off. Which has already happened twice. Right now they're trying to heal the bloody cracks that happened 4 hours ago. Lucian suddenly
Third Person's POV "No, I'm done with him! Daddy you've never seen him, I never imagined my mate would hate me and be so mean to me!... Daddy, he actually scared me today! For the first time ever I was actually afraid for him to even touch me!" Ian said as he cried and his dad pulled him into a hug. Meeda wrapped his arms around his little boy. His elf heart broke for his little boy. Because of his weaker stance in the elf world, he had always feared that his little boy, who was born with beta blood, would not be what he thought he would. Betas are usually born dominant, not submissive.... As he watched his child grow up, he saw all the telltale signs of a submissive child, even though he showed zero signs that he was even born from an elf. Meeda's elf blood ran through Ian's veins, but Ian was a werewolf through and through. There was hardly any sign that he was even from his dad. Every inch of him screamed his father, a Beta blood werewolf, a Mitchell. And every Mitchell mal
Third Person's POV Silas walked out onto the back patio, he paused to take in the scenery. The sun had already set, there was a little fire going in the backyard and they had strung little fairy lights off the patio. There was some quiet music playing and Ian's parents were dancing in the backyard. Silas saw Ian leaning against one of the pillars at the end of the patio. He leaned against it with a smile on his face as he watched his parents dance. His Father spins his dad before pulling him back into his arms while he laughed. Silas quietly walked up behind Ian then slipped his arms around his waist and pulled his back flush against his chest. He leaned down and pressed his nose against his neck and took a deep breath in before pressing a soft kiss against the tender skin on his neck. "I'm so sorry for the horrible things I said when I first got here. And I'm so sorry for the way I spoke to you back at the pack house. I didn't mean to hurt you, it wasn't my intention. I was just
Silas's POV "Ian, sweetheart wake up!... Ian! Wake up! It's just a dream." I said to my screaming mate who's thrashing on the bed next to me. I woke up to the sound of Ian screaming and crying out for me. It's a sound I never want to hear in real life. Hearing him in distress, crying and screaming for me, tore at every fiber of my being. It startled me awake, my eyes instantly burning red as I sat up hissing at whoever was hurting him. When I saw Ian's eyes finally snap open, I felt the relief wash over me. Ian instantly sat up and grabbed my face before he broke down crying and threw his arms around my neck. He buried his face in my neck as he cried. "I thought you were dead! I felt you, I felt you die!" "No baby, it was just a dream!" "No, you don't understand! It was real! It felt so real!... I felt you, I felt you die!" "Ian honey, look at me! I'm here, see." I said as I grabbed Ian's hand and brought it to my face while looking into his eyes. "See baby, I'm right here. I
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
