             After spending some time with Emily, Eva received a text message from James asking her to come to his office so they could talk. Nothing odd about that. Nope, well, nothing odder than the current drama of musical mates and social blunders. How does one tell their alpha they messed their lives on an epic scale? Or that the mistake they made damaged the lives of several others within the pack he’d sworn to protect and others outside of the pack. This wouldn’t go away with a decree and a wave of a hand.

             Eva entered his office. If this were a friendly visit, it wouldn’t be in the office. So, this was business or drama. She figured the latter by the way he paced distractedly about the room. “Hi. I got your message. What’s up?” She let the door close quietly behind her before she spoke. Eva noticed he k

    “Hey, can we talk?” Damon stood at the doorway to Emily’s sanctuary. His hands in his pocket as he waited to hear her response. He watched the floor before looking up at her again. This wasn’t the self-confident man that talked to her for days on end during the summit. “Yeah, come in and have a seat. I guess it’s time we talked about what’s happening.” Damon could hear the regret in her voice. He’d found the time to think about this, and he expected she’d done the same. His mate was her friend, and both would hate it if he alienated them from each other by throwing blame on anyone. It was all a complicated mess, and someone needed to pull the sane card in this game of insanity. “Thanks. Be

    Asia sat in the VIP lounge watching her phone for the update that Thomas’ plane would land. Of course, after all these years, this would happen. The plane was over an hour late now, and the air in the terminal was so dry that she needed a drink. A drink from the lounge would serve double duty. Feed her thirst and calm her nerves. But she promised herself that she wouldn’t drink as Thomas did before calling her.That concerned her greatly. Would he be drunk when he got off the plane? Did he develop a drinking problem in their years apart? What else would she find changed about him? Would he like what he found different about her?So many questions about this whole thing. Would the attraction still be there for them? It must be they’re fated mates, after all. What did she know about fated mates? Her parents did not happen to be fated mates. In fact, her father didn’t stay around long after she was born. Her father had nothing to do with her growin

    Janine sat there at the end of the meal, trying to figure out what to say or even how to say it. She wasn’t sure what she wanted. This was something she’d not thought about yet. There’d just not been enough time. Her son and Emily weren’t ready to do this by themselves yet. Yes, she was ready to walk away, but they weren’t ready for her to do that. But what would happen if he lost interest in her? Or the investigation into the land put an end to this project. Then what would happen? There was so much that made little sense to her. That building was old. They built it in the mid-eighteen hundreds. Sure they’d upgraded the thing to have electricity and running water from the well. Even indoor plumbing. But how would it w

  • Second Chance for the Alpha   Damon’s Question and Obsession

    Damon actually tracked Eva back to her apartment. He knew she didn’t like how the shower at the lake house didn’t have any shampoo or soaps. So, she’d need to clean up properly when she got back to the packhouse. Right about now, he had an intriguing idea of helping her with that shower. Though he wasn’t sure how she’d respond to that. So, instead of barging in on her, he knocked and waited for her to open the door. The door swung open quickly for him to see Eva standing there dripping wet with a towel wrapped around. He thought the towel was sexier than her opening the door wearing nothing. The steamy scent of her fresh from a hot shower assailed his nose in a delightfully addictive way. His well-intentioned plans went up in smoke when she pulled him into her apartment by the front of his shirt. She di

  • Second Chance for the Alpha   Alpha Communication

    James listened to the phone ring. His mother informed him he needed to take over the mess he made and fix it. Which was true. This was an experience for him. James didn’t miss the irony that it started from something Emily did, rather than himself. So, if reason held true, it was his turn to clean it up. This was long overdue in their relationship. If you asked him three weeks ago, he’d have told the person telling him this that they were insane to believe it. That everything worked just fine the way it was. Now he’d found the time to think about it and the quiet to listen, really. He couldn’t believe what he saw now. How stunted he’d become in maturing. Sadly, James now saw that he was just as guilty as the others he blamed.

    Thomas struggled to stay relaxed in the vehicle's darkness. Asia sat beside him. He could smell her distinctive scent and it was driving his instincts wild within this enclosed space. But she wouldn’t even look at him. Now they sat there as the vehicle moved toward her domain. Thomas couldn’t help but feel like he was in this situation from the aspect of a weakened position. Her silence only made him question his decision to try this method of fixing things.He was about to break the silence when his phone rang. Thomas went to see who it was and silence it when Asia’s hand blocked his. She answered it for him in video chat. Frowning at her as she leaned back in her seat and waved at him encouragingly to take the call.He was in no p

    Haden watched Janine’s wolf chase a rabbit through the woods on the way back to the packhouse. She was playing with the fluffy herbivore. Neither was hungry, he was sure of that after all the s’mores they’d eaten and dinner. But they needed time together. He knew she needed it to form a sense of trust between them, and he was sure she’d open up to him once that trust formed.Once they’d shifted back to their human forms that didn’t bother to dress. Rather, they carried their clothes with them as they took the back stairs up to his apartment. “Come in and have a nightcap. We can relax and talk.”“I’m not dressed for that.” Janine looked scandalized at the thought. It was one thing to walk to their apartments naked. It was another to spend time in his apartment the same way.“We’re grown adults and everyone’s

    Damon awoke with Eva beside him. His phone rang on the floor. His phone was in his pants pocket, and so he scrambled to the floor in the dark to search for it. “Who’s that at his hour?” “That ring you need to learn. That’s the ring for Alpha Thomas. Hello? Yes, Alpha. How can I help you?” Damon sat on the cold floor naked, with the phone to his ear. “Yes, sir, she’s here. Really? Yes, I got her to agree. No, we've not.” Eva watched him in the faded gloom as he spoke to the stranger that would soon enough to be her alpha. Gods, when did everything change? Just days ago, she was fleeing hunters and a stalker. Now she lay here with a man who’d become her mate soon enough. Crap, she needed to tell h

    The candle and a long stem lighter, so Gwenda chose to use the lighter without the candle and she heated the back of the paper. “Here goes nothing.” It took several minutes, but something appeared. “No one knows we used this trick. I had to have written it. There’s no other way this could have worked. Now what do we have? GPS coordinates, wait. There’s another set. Maybe I went back to get the coordinates?” As she move about the page, a set of seven coordinates appeared. She took the flame away, but gasped. “There’s something else here. Hold, let me reveal it too.” Everyone moved in closer and watched an eighth GPS location appear. “Either location? Where’s does that lead to?” This stumped her for a moment. “We need to plug these into a GPS system and see where they all lead to. The first one isn’t anywhere near the others.” “Of course not. The first one is in Orion’s Forest Territory. They probably scattered the others around here. I recognize the general numbers f

    Finally, Asia’s plan came to fruition. Today, they would have their mating ceremony. Janine helped so much, with all the plans. She’d gone above and beyond when it came to their unique needs. But Asia now saw that it was safer for their packs to stay where they were. Penny now scared Asia with little comments, and her track record of being accurate with those comments was the reason.Asia watched the internet as information leaked out. Much of the speculation came from disbelievers and conspiracy theorists. The government and law enforcement had little to say, which only fuelled the debate more. Asia knew there was nothing to be done but to stay quiet and let the ruling council deal with it.Today was her mating ceremony, and it would be a good time in her life. It took long enough to get this far with Thomas and her pack. She wasn’t going to fool herself. There would always be someone commenting on the changes in a negative way.Those witnessing in person were minimal and all, but Ap

  • Second Chance for the Alpha   Alpha meeting

    Karl greets the Alphas as they file into the room he’s using as a study currently. Once they’re settled with tablets, notepads, etcetera, James opened the meeting. “Alright, I think we can skip the intro to the reason for this meeting. We all know why and who we are. Okay Karl, tell us what you have found.”“Thank you, Alpha De Marre. Yes, uh, this is extremely complicated, so please bear with me as I need to explain there’s far too much back story. First, I have received some upsetting news. The latest attack by the Fae was investigated by my life partner’s enforcement team. The entire team is missing. I want to leave and go help, but I have been told not to stay here to continue working. Second, there’s supposed to be a Fianna weapons expert coming, and they are now late. Now, what I found while translating the journal. Hold on, I missed a few disturbing facts.” Karl held up a smaller book. “All original surviving copies of the translation book for the Fae language at in the univers

    Karl now turned his attention to contacting his life mate, Pat. Everyone should be home. It was early there.He kept trying with no luck to connect with Pat. Karl didn’t like the feelings of isolation. Or that he didn’t know where Pat was.After some time, it forced him to decide to stop trying. He couldn’t reach anyone at home. It was as if the location was empty of life and that was far from normal. He took a break and found himself a drink and lunch. He could eat before stopping by the front desk to request that they explain how to find the room he was using to study the books in. When he identified the weapons, he did it under the view of the local arms master who ran James’ armoury. They worked together with attempting to understand what weapons killed which creatures. Some were pretty famous while others were far front known. He needed a person who understood lore and creatures from it. He knew languages used for writing magic spells and rituals. He wasn’t truly a specialist an

    “Morning Karl, I have a response from the council. The Fianna will send a representative out to assist you. I’m surprised they moved this quickly. They have requested we send them via a mage driven portal rather than flighting out there. You should see them after lunch. Let the front desk know where they will find you. We’ve arranged for their stay. Now, how is the translation coming? Those weapons can’t be handed over without an understanding of what their purpose and function is.” Mages were well ahead of the everyday man. Humans finally got video calling, mages always had that. They called it scrying and Karl used it now to contact his mentor. Who was within the grand walls of the great library? Mages had to have a mentor while they studied and proved themselves. “Thank you, that’s great news. I have most of it translated. Currently, I’m attempting to build a detailed catalogue. With entries about each weapon mentioned within the journal. After that, I must identi

    Asia met with Janine the next morning to organize her mating ceremony. Thomas and Haden couldn’t help with it since they needed them to help with the latest discovery. “So here we are. I think I have everything ready for you to look through. There’s even a checklist, so as we fill the binder, we know we haven’t missed anything. Now, so I can help direct you in the right direction. What did you have in mind?” Janine tried to give off a professional air. She ended her words and held her breath, waiting for Asia’s response. “Oh, well, I don’t want anything too complicated. Actually, Thomas and I have been talking about it and we realized that there’s no way we can get everyone we want here without going over the budget.” Asia peaked at Janine, unsure how she would react. Asia watched Janine’s face fall. “Oh, we still want a simple mating ceremony, but we want to live stream it to both territories. We’ll have two receptions later on. But it makes everything a hu

    “Okay, now you have to tell me who pushed you to do that. I want to thank them. It was perfect.” Emily sat in the bath with James and a glass of wine. She couldn’t see her official mate as she sat between his thighs with her back leaning against his chest. “I’ll start getting offended if you won’t believe me. It was my idea and others just helped. I didn’t like how much you were doing with the pups, pack, resort, and trying to get the mating ceremony setup. It was too much for anyone. I wanted you to relax and enjoy this time.” “You really have changed. A year ago, you wouldn’t have cared if I collapsed from exhaustion.” Emily was a little beyond tipsy now after the refreshments at the reception and drinks at the spa. She’d been careful, but they added up. James, too, was nicely mellowed out. They handed their pups off with a pack caregiver on duty for the night. “Yes, I would have. I relied on you far too much. I think if things hadn’t gotten to the extreme, thi

    You’d think mages would write everything down on paper and there would be hundreds if not thousands of people employed to look it up at the university. But that wasn’t the case. Computers hold their own kind of logical magic. People just accept that it’s a science. But Karl was aware of the rare instance when some sort of information made it into the hands and minds of those that needed to information to change the world.Here, Karl had the name of a mage, but no time period. They had an app for that. He sent the information about the approximate dates from the journal. Then he hoped for the best. If the name was in the database, he would receive that information soon enough. If it wasn’t, then he could proceed to a physical look up within the older written documents that had yet to be transferred into their version of a computer. Now he continued to translate the stories within the book. That’s what they were, stories. Each weapon had a story. No facts or statistics were t
