Save me Alphas (REVERSE HAREM SHIFTER ROMANCE) 27. AXEL
I frowned. My body was relaxed, my mind clear and my stomach full. I wasn’t hungry. I could sense the sun starting to rise so I should be sleeping. But something woke me and I wasn’t sure what. Sitting up, I glanced around the room. Nothing was out of place and there was no sign of anyone inside my room. Letting out a sigh, I got comfortable again. “Axel…”It was Cora’s voice, but she wasn’t inside my room. Jerking upright, I got to my feet and hurried towards the stairs. Pressing the button, I waited for the door to open. There was a soft click and then the door slowly started to open. I pushed it open faster and stepped out of my room slightly. I flinchedThe room was bathed in rays of the early morning sun. A low moan made my eyes snap towards Keiran’s desk. Cora was on the chair, her head resting on her arms on the desk. Another pained moan fell from her lips as her head rolled from side to side. “It hurts,” she cried. The fact that she was in my head should have shocked

I glanced at Keiran from the corner of my eyes. It would be very rude of me to answer my phone during a meeting with the council, but it was the third time it was ringing. Something had to have happened because the only person I could think of who would call was Axel. “She has accepted your mark, but that does not mean that she has accepted you as her mate,” one of the elders was saying. “Given your history with your previous mate, you understand why we need to look at things from every possible angle,” Demetrius muttered. “Your pack has grown considerably over the years and don’t get me wrong, you are a great alpha. But we need to make sure that your pack will be protected if the past gets repeated.”“Cora is nothing like Laura,” Keiran growled. “How can we be so sure?” someone asked. “We know nothing about her. Rowan has given us a report and based on that, she is a troublemaker.”“You all know that Rowan can’t be trusted,” I interjected. All eyes turned towards me. “Why exac

I was too hot. Biting back a whimper, I shifted slightly. My eyes fluttered open but I immediately squeezed them closed again. The bright light made sharp pains shoot through my already aching head. Every inch of my body ached. It felt like I had spent hours at the gym. The last thing I remembered was the pain and Axel’s soothing words. I shifted. Jerking upright, I glanced around. Axel was on the bed to my left and Keiran to my right. A wolf was resting at the end of the bed. “Oh.”“Don’t be scared.” A hand was pressed to the small of my back. “It’s Ryder.”His fur was the same colour as his hair. The wolf stirred and slowly opened its eyes. They were one and the same. Just like I had been with my wolf. I looked at Keiran to find him already studying me. He reached out and pressed his palm to my forehead. “You still have a fever.”“I changed,” I whispered. “I was a wolf.”Keiran smiled. “You did. Do you remember?”I flinched. How could I not? My bones had literally snappe

A Golden Wolf.Our Cora was one of the rarest wolves on earth. I knew she was special, but I didn’t know to what extent. When Axel told me that Cora wasn’t human, I knew expected her to be like us. Her parents believed that she was human unless they were lying about it. Or they didn’t know. My frown deepened as I thought back to all the times Nate and I met. He only ever talked about his family, and sometimes he would mention the troubles the back were facing. Whenever I asked him about Cora’s past and her real parents, he shut down. Maybe Cora wasn’t found at the side of the road like they claimed. Maybe her parents had handed Cora over to them in hopes of saving her from a terrible death. The Golden Wolves had been hunted, not only for their fur colour but because of the powers they possessed. That was something I didn’t know a lot about, but finding more information on it was claiming to be harder than expected. I made a mental note to arrange a date to go to Crawford and che

Had they known about it?Letting out a groan, I dropped my forehead on my arm. I had been puking my guts out for the last few minutes. I hated being sick. The medicine Ryder gave me wasn’t helping at all. I was starting to feel worse than I had hours ago. “Maybe we should call the doctor,” Axel suggested. *Keiran clearly said that we shouldn’t tell anybody about Cora’s shift,* Ryder growled. I frowned because I was pretty sure that he hadn’t said those words out loud. A hand slipped down my back as someone knelt next to me. I should be chasing them out of the bathroom. It was disgusting. They shouldn’t be inside the bathroom with me while I was puking my guts out. Raising my head, I blinked at Axel.He wiped my mouth with the tip of a wet cloth as he gave me a gentle smile. Once he was done, he straightened and then walked over to the basin to wash the cloth out. I struggled to my feet, trying my best to avoid looking down at the vomit in the toilet. With a shaky hand, I flushed

I wanted to punch him so badly. He didn’t have to point out what I already knew. Everything was supposed to be Cora’s decision but that was taken away from her when Rowan forced me to mark her just so he could be sure that she was our mate. My eyes locked on my mark. It was an ugly red colour. I needed to nurse it to heal faster, but that would be a big mistake. My beast was already clawing at the surface. He wanted our mate to mark us, he wanted our skin to be branded by her mark.That would only lead to more complications that we couldn’t afford. “Let’s focus on one thing at a time,” Axel said softly, making my eyes snap to his. “Yeah like the fact that you fed from her,” Ryder growled. Axel just glanced at him. “Cora still has a fever.”“And a headache,” she added softly. I frowned. She just shifted and although some aches and pains were common after a first shift, a fever wasn’t. The doctor had given me a first-aid kit with human medicine, but it was clear that Cora wasn’t

It was almost like I could feel his blood traveling through my body, which was stupid because I had swallowed it so it was in my stomach. A stomach that was still a little unsettled despite the two slices of toast Axel had made me eat.Axel took a seat next to me on the couch.I waited until he was comfortable and then scooted closer to him. He instantly tensed when I laid my head on his thigh. I turned onto my back and blinked up at him.His eyes locked with mine and a few seconds later his body slowly relaxed. Smiling, he pressed his hand to my forehead.“Your fever’s going down,” he said softly.“I feel better,” I told him. “Except for my stomach that’s still a little unsettled.”Axel placed his hand on my stomach, making me freeze. I held my breath as he slowly pushed my shirt higher up my stomach. Once it was resting under my breast, his hand moved down to rest on my lower stomach.The heat of his skin slowly seeped into mine.I blew out a breath, my body relaxing.A movie was pla

Save me Alphas (REVERSE HAREM SHIFTER ROMANCE) EPILOGUE: CORA
“Sweetling.”I frowned as Axel’s soft voice penetrated my dream. It wasn’t a nightmare like usual, it was a nice peaceful dream, one I didn’t want to wake up from. “Cora.”A groan slipped past my lips when he gently shook my shoulder. Forcing my eyes open, I blinked up at his face hovering close to mine. Axel gave me a gentle smile as he reached out to move the hair from my face. “You’re bleeding.”His words confused me even more. Axel pulled the sheets down and then gripped my arm and gently pulled me up. Frown deepening, I glanced around and then down at my body. Slipping his arm under my knees and the other around my back, he pulled me against his chest. I wrapped my arms around his neck but risked a glance back at the bed. Horror hit first and then embarrassment. Not only were my pajama bottoms covered in blood, but there was also blood on the bed sheets. I buried my face against Axel’s neck. “I’m a werewolf,” I mumbled. “I’m not supposed to get my period, am I?”“You are s

Ryder moved to my other side and slipped his hand in mine. Nothing was said between the three of us as we headed towards the stage that had been set up. Keiran was already there, making a joke about something. All the focus was on him which meant that nobody had seen Axel’s confrontation with his mother. We had arrived just in time to hear the end of their conversation. I glanced up at Axel. He was still mad, but at least he had managed to mask his expression. Although people were still wary of his crimson eyes. My heartbeat increased the closer we got to the stage. Axel’s hand slipped out of mine when we reached the stairs. He moved behind me as Ryder led the way up the steps. Keiran turned, eyes locking with mine. He smiled as he held his hand out towards me. “I would like to officially introduce Cora Marlin, our mate, and your new Luna.”I turned to smile at the people. “Tonight we’re not only celebrating Cora’s special day, but we will also be welcoming her to our pack.” He

Most of the pack was already gathered at the usual spot. Laughter and conversation filled the air. I sucked in a breath, trying my best to identify as many scents as I could. There was no sign of danger, but that didn’t make me feel any better. I knew how easily things could change. Cora’s hand tightened. My eyes snapped down to hers. She smiled at me, but it didn’t reach her eyes. Her scent had changed the moment we stepped foot out of the house. I tried talking Keiran out of making it a big deal but he insisted. This was an important day for our pack. They needed to see Cora holding her head high and acting at Luna. These pack dynamics still confused me. It was so different than how things were done in the Vampire nests. A shudder raced down my spine as memories flooded my mind. Cora suddenly stumbled. My hands instantly shot out to steady her. Our eyes locked and held. I realized with a start that she had paled. She looked sick. “What happened?” I questioned. “Are you fee

“You can’t hide in there forever,” Blue called from the other side of the door. “Come out and let me see.”I ignored her as I studied myself in the mirror. Blue had chosen one of the new dresses Keiran brought me without my knowledge. I smiled as I remembered our day at the mall. It was scary at first, but the longer we walked from shop to shop, the more I relaxed. He didn’t give my fears a chance to get the better of me. And he certainly spoiled me. I now had a lot of clothes, more than I owned before. Keiran even offered to pay if I wanted to get my hair and nails done. I agreed to have my hair cut but declined the offer to do my nails. There was no use wasting money on something I didn’t need. The bathroom door opened, startling me. Blue peeked around the door and then pushed it open wider. Her eyes widened as they trailed over me. “Wow,” she breathed. “You look beautiful.”“T-thank you.” I brushed my hands over my middle. “I’m not sure about wearing it though.”“Why not?”“

Maybe we should have talked to Cora first. I glanced over at her. It was supposed to be a surprise trip. Something to get Cora away from the pack so everything could be set up for her party. Not only were we celebrating her birthday, we were going to officially welcome her into the pack. She was already ours and the pack knew about her so the introductions weren’t necessary. But Demetrius suggested that we keep doing things traditionally. So here I was driving Cora to the human town under the pretense that we needed a few things for the party. Cora was tense. I could sense her wolf hovering close to the surface and I understood why. This was a big step for both of them. It was also considered a test. “We need more of those plastic plates,” I said. “I was thinking of getting a few extra cups and cutlery just in case.”“Is the whole pack going to be there?” “Yeah. Some will probably only stop by for the introductions.”She looked at me then, but her attention was pulled away when

As expected, the moment I fell asleep, my dreams turned into nightmares. I found myself jerking awake only to be lulled back to sleep by Keiran’s purring and Axel’s reassurance that I was safe. My dreams were a mess. It was a mix of being locked in that room and being tortured to waking up in my old pack with Dean as my mate. Somewhere during the third nightmare, I woke up to Keiran gone. Before I could question it, Axel and Ryder took control, distracting me by undressing me and giving me multiple orgasms. The last time I fell asleep it was sandwiched between Ryder and Axel with the blissful waves of my orgasms slowly fading. There was no nightmare after that. I woke up near noon feeling exhausted. There was a faint pounding behind my temples and my body ached but I pushed the pain aside as I slipped out of bed and headed into the bathroom for a shower. With my hair wrapped in a towel, I pulled on one of Keiran’s shirts and then left the room to search for my mates. The smell of

It looked like he didn't want to answer me. Why were they so secretive about it? Letting out a sigh, Keiran settled more comfortably on his stomach. I turned onto my side and waited. "I needed some time away from the pack," he said softly. "I asked Lucas to keep an eye on things and declined his offer for extra security. I was going to a human town and I thought that it would be safe." "It wasn't?" "I stopped for a drink at a bar, I'm ashamed to admit that I had a little too much." He paused. "Werewolves need to drink a lot of alcohol before we feel the effect of it. I lost count and before I knew it I could barely walk. Decided it was best to get back to the hotel I was staying at before I did something stupid." I waited a little impatiently for him to continue. "I got lost and ended up in an alley." Keiran closed his eyes. "My mind was a mess and I wasn't aware that I was being followed until they jumped on me. I struggled to fight them off and I was pretty smug about it unt

Guilt flooded me when I approached our house and spotted Lucas slowly straightening from where he had been leaning against the tree. It was almost three am and I was sure that he was dead tired. "Axel hasn't returned yet," Lucas said softly. "There's been no other movement.""Thank you," I said through our packlink. He nodded. "Do you want me to stick around?""Just open the door for me." I followed him to the front door and slipped inside the moment he opened the door. With a nod of thanks, I waited until the door was closed again before I ran up the stairs. The house was silent. Cora was probably asleep already which was good because I wasn't sure if I could look her in the eye and lie about everything that happened. Axel said that he hadn't told Cora about the other videos Dean had made of her. The kid had been stalking her for years. I was going to make him bleed over and over again to make him pay for all the shit he put her through. Entering my bedroom, I headed towards

"Why is it taking so long?" Ryder tried to grab me when I passed him but I avoided his hands and moved further away from him. I didn't want to stay in that room any longer, but I regretted not staying. Now we had no clue what was happening. "Do you think Keiran attacked Dean?" I asked Ryder. "What if he did and they decided to make his punishment worse?""Cora." Ryder stood and made his way over to me. He gripped my hips, spinning me around to look at him. "As Kelsey pointed out, the council is only there to advise Keiran. They can't punish him for anything."I swallowed, glancing at the door again. "They're fine."Sucking in a shaky breath, I stepped into Ryder and wrapped my arms around his waist. He wrapped his arms around me and buried his face against the crook of my neck. Calm washed through me from our bond, but it only lasted a few seconds before my anxiety started rising again. Ryder's lips parted and his tongue flicked out to lick my skin. I shuddered. "I can think of
