Alpha Henry POV Coming to this pack hadn't been a hard choice to make. My Luna, Harriet, or Harry as I call her, is a wonderful woman and has been close to Sequoia since she has taken her place in my pack. I always thought it weird that he had someone else taking over the responsibilities of the Luna, but it wasn’t my busy to pry into. As soon as the Elders asked for someone to come here to deal with a rejection and a possible criminal case, I rushed over and demanded the presence of the other Alphas as soon as possible. Sam is a good guy, a good Alpha, and I consider him a friend. I am not sure he sees me the same way as pack politics have always been something that is present between Alphas. You cannot risk the safety of your pack because you see another Alpha as a friend. I try to remind myself of that a lot but give his pack members a lot of special treatment other packs don’t get. I know he raises good, respectful wolves here. Seeing this footage for the second time in two day
Alpha Sam POV After Henry told me I could execute that bitch I felt myself and Spear relax a little. At least this part of my life could be behind me. I could tell Gabriel was not happy with the decision and they were all having a conversation about it at the end of the table. I would have doubts too, but they had no idea how I felt. No idea that I had another mate out there I had been hurting for over twenty years thanks to my blindness and foolishness. This she-wolf hurt my pup, my fated mate and my pack members... all to satisfy her own greed and need for status and power. It makes me sick to my stomach to even think about it. How could I not see it. Ren places her hand on my shoulder, and I turn to look at her. “Are you sure daddy? If you can't, I won't be mad or judge you.” she says, and I can see the worry for me in her eyes. She worries that I can't do this, and it will change me. It probably will, but not in the way she is assuming. I place my hand on her cheek and rub my t
Alpha Sams POV I had gotten some paperwork done, showered and dressed for the occasion. We had hours to kill before the sentencing, and I was not needed with the council, so I used the time to catch up on some bits and pieces. I didn’t want Ren feeling she needed to be working when she was trying to reconnect... or I guess... connect at all with her unit. Spear had been pacing impatiently in my mind ever since. We wanted that bitch dead. We needed her off our pack lands. I could feel it bubbling under my skin every second. ‘Is it time yet?’ Spear growls in my mind for the hundredth time since leaving the meeting room. Whatever calm I had gained from managing to speak to Sequoia had fizzled away as quickly as the link had closed. Spear felt the same and became instantly agitated. ‘Yeah. Its time. Let's get the guys and go end this.’ I say with a sick smile on my face as I stare at myself in the mirror. Sequoia had brought a free-standing floor-length mirror into my suite for me to
Alpha Sam’s POV The pack were all mulling around, eating, enjoying themselves as I march up the centre isle of the seating. The cold evening air was beginning to drop in temperature, and we needed to get on with this before it was too late. Ren is already sitting on the edge of the stage, with her team scattered around her. Myles is sitting next to her as she leans her head on his shoulder. Bloody pup needs to watch his ass, cos if he doesn’t take a giant step back from my underage pup, there is going to be more than one murder here tonight. Spear snarls loudly, alerting the pups to our approach. Ren snaps her head up and looks at me with a smile that would melt any father's heart. A smile that says she loves me and is supportive of me in this decision. I nod lightly to her, and she reciprocates. As we near, I glare at Myles as I pass, but the little shit just smiles. He has his arm around my pup's shoulder, and I want nothing more than to tear it off and beat him with it. Camron i
Serenity POV I square my shoulders, stand straight, and follow my father's unit up the steps. I feel my unit fall into formation behind me and am proud to call them mine. It came so naturally. I never realised what I had been missing out on growing up by pushing these wolves away. Since I woke up in that hospital, with all my secrets laid bare, I had barely been able to catch a minute alone. I know they are worried about when the penny will drop, and I will crash. I know they all watch me, waiting for my breakdown. But they are doing that to be there to catch me when I fall, and nothing feels better than knowing I have them. I won't fall. I won't crash. I have never been better in my life, not that that is saying much. I know I have emotional things to recover from, but I am an Alpha. I have my unit, friends, and family I can rely on. I have my mother. My wolf. I am strong and I will not break because of this one, spoiled, petty, bitch. My father takes his place to the right of the
Sheryl’s POV I can't fucking believe this. That fucking moron rejected me. ME! Is he out of his damn mind?! I have been locked up here for days with no shower, no nothing! I AM HIS LUNA! I was fated to be with him. He should be fucking thankful I didn’t reject his ass first. I know how hot I was when we met. I still am. I may be older, but I just got better and better. I have been pacing this cell for two days, waiting for him to come back. I get that he is mad, but he doesn’t understand! I remember meeting him. I had been a member of Whitetip pack, living with my parents, trying to fuck my way into Alpha Darrius’s Luna position. I had him exactly where I wanted him. He would have marked me. He was a strong and powerful Alpha with muscle that rippled under my fingertips when he pounded into me. He made me feel like a woman. He had been fucking for a year, since I turned seventeen, when that damn asshole had to show up and ruin it for me. They came for some meeting or another, somet
Alpha Sams POV “Now. Bring out the convicted Sheryl, former Luna of the White Moon pack, and Rogue.” Alpha Henry bellows and Spear sits up in my mind with his teeth bared and a snarl falling from his muzzle. We want this over with. Not because he cares in any kind of way, other than to see this mutt punished for the pain she caused our pup. He doesn’t care about her like an ex-mate which is odd. Maybe it's because he heard it from the Goddess himself that he has a second chance out there. I am just not so sure I am ready for that. How do you ever recover? Trust someone so blindly a second time when you are so badly burned from the first? It would be a stranger. Someone I don’t know. Someone who has no idea how damaged I am when it comes to trust. How could I ever put that upon a woman. ‘She waited for us. She will not be like this one. You heard the Goddess. She is the one we should have always had. She waited for us. You will not hurt her Sam or so help me I will take over and
Serenity's POV From the second she stepped onto the stage, my heart rate increased. I knew I had nothing to fear any longer, but the instinct to retreat was still very much alive and well within me. I take a deep breath and lock my fingers together behind my back. 1... 2... 3... I count in my head, breathing heavily through the fear rising within me. warmth spreads across my back, and I feel his presence behind me. His large warm hand enveloped mine as I maintained my death grip on my hands. 'Breath... breath for me, Se. She can not hurt you. I'd never let her get near you. never again, my Alpha.' Myles says through the mind link. I take in large breaths, trying not to let my fear show. Miles runs his thumb over my hands, and I allow myself to sink into the tingles playing across my skin. I square my shoulders and try to refocus on everything happening. 'Thank you, Myles. I'm OK. I promise. I just want this over.' I tell him, and watch as my father steps forward, radiating anger.
Serenity's POV Uncle Mylo had a point. something needed to be done, but I don't think it's me who needs to do it. He looks at me with a broken soul, only seeing his failure. It's killing me inside because I am his daughter... his heir. I want to see him look at me with pride, but that all went away when I broke our family. 'You didn't break your family, Ren. She did. Maybe we should ask mom what to do? she may have an answer.' Star tells me in my mind, and I have to agree that calling my mom could help. He was chosen to be my dad for a reason. maybe she can knock some sense into him? "Uncle Mylo, you're right. dad is spiralling and causing all of his unit to spiral with him. But... it can't be me who speaks to him." I tell him, and he furrows his brow in confusion."But Ren, you're the only one who can solve this. he is drowning in his own guilt, and it's all focused on you pup. I know it's a lot to ask, but we need to snap him out of this." He says with a hint of panic in his voic
Beta Mylos POV"I know you're trying to be supportive, but you're just pissing me off and getting underfoot... now would you just go. I need peace. " Sam, all but snarls at me, and I heave a loud exasperated sigh. He was hunched over his huge glass topped, metal desk, pouring over paperwork. The dark grey circles around his eyes, and the way his cheeks seem to be sinking in, has us all on edge. Me and the guys are gifted with intuitive connections with our Alpha. It's a large part of what makes an Alpha unit so successful and close. We can tell when he's in danger, pain, feeling fear or anxiety. Since the verdict, we could all feel his stress and anger. It poured off him in waves, and we had all started losing sleep. "Sam, you're officially affecting us all now. Me, and the guys are worried. We can't continue like this. None of us are sleeping because you're up all night drinking your pain away and then wallowing in regret. Do you think we don't feel that? that we don't sit in the ha
Serenity's POVI haven't seen my dad for three days, and I'm starting to panic. He is either locked in his suit or in his office. I know the sentencing must have been hard on him, but for him to shut everyone out for days is a little extreme. I have been trying to keep my distance, as I know it will only hurt him more to see me. me. the cause of all of this. the reason for his pain. I almost whimper with the slice of pain that whips across my chest. the guilt is eating me alive. "Nope," Myles says, pooping me on the nose with his finger. I snap out of my internal war and snap my eyes to his. bloody fool has a goofy ass grin on his face as I scowl at him. "Your father is dealing with things right now and I can promise you, not one of those things is regret or grief over that horrid bitches death. OK?" he asks as he rubs his nose against mine. Myles has utilised the absence of my father over the last few days to be affectionate with me whenever possible. We barely go an hour without
Alpha Sam's POVMe, and my unit, stand in a circle, watching as the flames roar in front of us. no one says a word. thus is not a funeral, and this bitch deserves none. we brought canisters filled with fuel and doused her in it before lighting the bitch on fire at the closest rogue pire. we have a few dotted around the pack. the smell serves as a nice warning to those who chose to try to attack us. We have lived in peace for so long that nowadays, it's a small burned patch on the earth, forever smelling of rotten, burned flesh. the crackle of the fire and the rustle of nearby woodland animals fleeing from the blaze are the only sounds. I know I'm supposed to feel something now. maybe even grief, however irrational it may be... but I don't. Now my anger has faded, although I am sure it will never fully go away. Now, all I have left is exhaustion and numbness. I push my hands into the pockets of my black slacks. I hate wearing formal clothing, but being Alpha calls for it far more than
Alpha Sam's POVI watched Ren slump against the young Beta in relief. I know she panicked, thinking I wouldn't go through with it. I know I have a long way to go before she trusts me again, but I refuse to let my pup down again. When the Beta pup mind linked to say she was nearing a panic attack, I looked over to see her swaying on her feet, pale and disorientated. I told him to do whatever necessary to snap her out of it as we didn't want the world seeing her vulnerable. now, as he holds her to him, a small smile on his face, but worry in his eyes, I have a feeling I may need to get used to seeing that pup with my baby girl. If the Goddess wills them as mates, which looks to be the case... we may need to have a discussion. Ren suddenly tenses as her eyes drift over to the forest line. Fucking Dom and Darrius. They are stood close together, smiling and chatting whilst leering at my pup. Shit. Maybe Sheryl gave too much away before I ended her miserable existence. "THIS CONCLUDES T
