2024-10-29 19:42:56Jessie rambled around the packhouse with nothing much left to do with the cleanup. There was a surprising amount of compost to remove from the building, but by spring it would be well on its way to be useable in the gardens. She’d a chance earlier to see them, and an expansion would need to happen. But if upgrades were being made, she’d thought an additional greenhouse or two would be well worth the cost. But that would wait for spring.
Alrick already confirmed with Rachel that they’d be able to question Hector at eleven this morning. She’d meet them and everyone would travel together.
But with the winter months, many people volunteered on the cleanup, and Jessie’s pregnancy was the excuse used to exclude her from cleanup chores. It’d not taken long for someone to spill the beans to Bonnie about her pregnancy. Right now Bonnie was pouting because she’d m

Ever since speaking with Doc. J. J., Alrick was questioning the sanity of Jessie’s decision to talk to her brother. He would ensure he stayed close to Jessie through the whole thing. But he truly contemplated putting his foot down and saying no. What he worried about how the stress of arguing would affect her health. Now he pulled the vehicle up to the front of the packhouse. There he stopped and looked out over the front of the building. “What’s up?” Jessie looked around, confused at what he looked at. “Pups… I think it’s just sinking in. We’re going to be parents…”

The small group left the holding cells in silence. They returned to the packhouse and settled down to eat lunch. “Why do I feel like this is all my fault? If I’d done something or said something. Why didn’t he say something about this to me?” “It’s an internal conversation to explain why they treated the way they did. I don’t think he wanted to talk about it, because he might learn that he was wrong. He isolated himself because of it. Hector lied to everyone, and he stole from everyone. He hated being Alpha, and he fought against the responsibility. There’s nothing sane about that. You are a victim, not a cause. Your parents created this, and I don’t believe they were the only ones involved. This i
Serving the Alpha at His Whim It’s the Little Mistakes that Catch a Master Mind
Rachel and Davie left the packhouse, knowing now that their beliefs were correct. Hector was, in fact, a patsy for someone else. Someone he feared to name or couldn’t name. He was too far gone to give the person’s description, even if he knew what they looked like. It was frustrating, to say the least, for the investigators. They’d received word that they must locate this person as soon as possible. The only thing Rachel could think of was to lay another trap for them. Davie needed to step back and let his devious mate work out the plan. “Fine. We have a couple of things we’ll need to do. Cameras in the office. Someone must install them, and
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Finding a Friend
Kelly couldn’t believe the attention she received from the cute bartender. He’d even taken Eddie when he woke up while she was eating. Eddie gushed at him and seemed to like him. All the while, she watched them and finished her food. Now she was going back to eat again today. It wasn’t easier, but it helped her with her feelings of isolation. She returned to the bar with Eddie in tow for lunch again. “Good Afternoon Kelly How are you and Eddie today?” Kyle greeted them and brought to a table today close to the bar. Today a group of people were in the bar enjoying a meal, too. “Hey Buddy, how are you? You being good for your momma? Let’s see if we can find something your momma wants to eat. What can we get for y
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Taking the Last Steps
Jessie began packing to travel to meet the new pack members for the first time. This was the second time in a month she’d packed her things. The first was the end of one living hell to enter another. It wasn’t as happy a time as she believed it should have been. This time, though, was harder. She must pick and choose what she took with her. Jessie found it stressful. Unsure of how she wanted to appear to these people. They were refugees, not rich businessmen. But she wanted to appear in control, yet not appear as some disconnected leader. Lily found Jessie coming from the bathroom. “Hey, what’s all this?” Jessie’s clothes lay scattered about her walk-in closet and the bedroom. “Are you having morning sickness?” “I’m fine. I have all these clothes and no idea what is appropriate and what’s not. Choic
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Game, Set, and…
Ashley looked about the cabin she shared with Sal. All her things were in boxes, along with Sal’s luggage. This was truly happening. She was getting her wish to be Luna. It just wasn’t the Luna of the Silver Ridge Pack. They’d not even spoken of a pack name yet. But here they were barely mated and starting a pack with a group of strangers. “I think we’re about ready for tomorrow. Are you ready to spread the word?” “Yeah, let’s spread the word of our woes. How horrible it is we can’t fix our computers. We need help from your Alpha to send a report. I wonder if this will work honestly.” “Not if you say it lik

Alrick found Craig grabbing a snack. “What’s up?” Alrick said quietly to Craig. “Don’t ask questions. But we need to survey a few places right now and we need to take the ladies with us. No questions right now. Come on.” “Fine, but you’re acting weird.” Alrick’s expression cut short any more comments Craig might have. Upstairs, they found Lily and Jessie fussing with clothing and general items they wanted to pack for the trip. “Ladies, I need you not to question me about this. No resistance either. I will explain once we’ve left. But we are all stepping out for a while to review the progress and readi

Davie stepped back into the cabin he shared with Rachel and smiled at her in triumph. “How’d it go?” “Perfectly. Now we sit and wait. I don’t think he’ll wait long. It’s a perfect time to enter and do what he needs to do.” “He may be smart, but he’s not a natural planner. I can’t believe what he missed.” “Oh? What do you mean?” “I’ve continued to watch this. I can’t believe he thought we wouldn’t tape his c

Serving the Alpha at His Whim Epilogue
Three months since the mine returned to the Silver Ridge Pack’s control. It’d been out of their hands for almost six months in total. The miners could finally return to the mine safely. Oddly, the Fae never returned to the region. Perhaps the Fae thought better of returning for some unknown reason? Either way, the pack now settled into their new way of life. Everyone lived more closely together and now grew closer to each other every day. Kelly and Kyle focused on themselves and the things going on in the tavern. Making changes where needed to make life easier for the suddenly overflowing pack living and working under the tavern’s roof. Not everyone initially was a pack member, which meant there were strangers among them, but they were in the same position as the pack. They would come to find their places in the pack. It wasn’t smo
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Kyle’s Intent
Kyle left Craig’s office and went back to the tavern. The changes around here didn’t sit well with him. He didn’t know how he’d tell Kelly the truth about him. He’d told Alpha Alrick when he approached him to ask for membership, and they both agreed that they would take it easy and not tell anyone about it. He entered the warmth of the tavern and went in search of Kelly. There were more people staying here. Kyle would need to get used to it. On a good note, someone started preparing the bar for tonight. He wondered who that was. He’d need to find out and see what he could arrange. It would be nice to have someone else behind the bar a few nights per week. He’d have time to focus on Kelly and Eddie. Here’s hoping it wasn’t Kelly. She would have so much on her hands right now. He w
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Inside the Chamber, Situation Status
In the Chamber, Dean found his people working hard to document everything they could. He thought of the worst-case scenario. His mind worked out vague plans on how they’d evacuate the entire pack or packs. He didn’t know where the blast radius would be. If they could use this magical leak to their advantage, they could use it to attract the magically starved Fae here. Because they’d attacked several wells of power in Europe. Well, ancient wells, wells that ran dry over a thousand years ago of their magic. “Sir! I think you need to see this.” One of the portal experts brought in to review what they’d found. “I need to show you what we have. Though I think we just might have a weapon on our hands that we can use.&r
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Digging into the Secrets
Dean left the Alpha’s office and moved towards the vehicle that would take him to the mine. His heart sank. Because of the lies he must tell these shifters. But the mage’s council ordered the information with a need to know thing. Those runes weren’t the mystery. It’s the placement of them. Dates and times didn’t add up for them. The meaning of the runes was what they wanted, kept quiet. Mages or even druids opened these portals. It’d been the humans, but that wasn’t the shocking thing. Humans didn’t possess magic, meaning someone was powering them. Someone supernatural, and the traces of power he’d found at the other site told him far too much. It took him several weeks to discover what supern
Serving the Alpha at His Whim All that Ends Well, Never Fully Ends
Alrick sat back in his chair as he watched Jessie walk from the room. He hated doing that, but the future didn’t look like it would be any easier. If Kelly and Kyle possessed any chance at happiness, they must work things out by themselves. Interfering with any part of the process would cause complications and all involved would suffer for it. He couldn’t stand for that. Now he needed to focus on the issues at hand and put out as many of the dumpster fires as possible. Craig found three incidents already where he’d forced wolves into time out, meaning they’d locked them away for a time to cool off. To wolves, this was like putting a drunk into a drunk tank to sober up. Territorial instinct still lingered within wolf shifter’s minds.&nbs
Serving the Alpha at His Whim The New Normal
Jessie now sat in Alrick’s office again. Alrick returned to the office and instantly went to his computer and copying something to everyone. There were two mages in there with them and they were watching a video Alrick took of the portal. “Well, it’s definitely not natural, and whatever is trapped inside the crystal isn’t as secure as we hoped. Look at this crack here. When the wall came down, it must have damaged it. We’ll get it secured as soon as we’re done here. But the runes are fascinating. I’ve not seen anything similar to this. We need to get copies of them. Then we’ll get people in translating them. But I know these aren’t from the local area. They didn’t have a written language when these runes appeared, that’s for sure. Someone came here and did this long
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Kelly's Future
Kyle couldn’t believe this. It took him several attempts to discover why this summons came so suddenly. When the enforcers first entered the tavern, he thought they were there to take him away from everything and everyone that he’d grown to love within the last few years. Now, with Kelly so close all the time, he didn’t want to deal with this. He just wanted to live a quiet life. Thank the gods he didn’t go off on them. Because what they called them in for was far more unbelievable. The Fae were back. Gods, the Fae. Now here they were setting up people to stay above the tavern. Several would stay in the restaurant, studying the human media for mentions of their actions. Others looked after the cattle. The mine would one day return to the pack, and only the gods knew when it would happen. NARC sent a motley cr
Serving the Alpha at His Whim Life Changing
Kelly couldn’t believe what was going on. Her heart pounded as they escorted everyone to the Audience Chamber. Her confusion increased when she saw everyone entering at the same time. Was there something wrong with the refugees? Before entering she asked several people but all she learnt was, it was an emergency. Once inside, though, she learnt quickly about some very unbelievable things. The Fae were back and roaming the world again. How could that happen? No one was aware of that. They could only find out that one enforcer on duty at the mine experienced an attack by an unknown Fae. Where and why were both great mysteries? Kelly quickly found Petra and retriev
Serving the Alpha at His Whim The Path of War: Guardians
Alrick sent the first force back to the Audience Chamber to help with organizing nearly three hundred shifters. They would fan out throughout the emergency land. When this pack first settled here, they laid out the main buildings in such a way that they could guard them easier, and the pack could monitor each others’ safety. The issue with this is it didn’t take into the changes within fighting over time. With machine flight, and now Fae using the Dream Realm as their public transit. They literally popped in and out at will. But at least it gave protection from physical attack and a false belief that everything would be okay. He prepared to go with his second set of forces for a short time. He needed to assess what truly was there. Not that he didn’t believe Herald. If Herald said he saw this, then Alrick believed
