Sold to Alpha Brothers 29. I will kill you all
MattThe relief of knowing that Lucy was simply missing and not dead had taken what little strength I had left. Tony practically carried me back down stairs and put me in a chair to be tended. I sat at the edge of the room as Tony growled and demanded answers, but none of them told a different story. The person who had made her lunch wasn’t here. They hadn’t seen her and several others in the house since several hours before our beta’s daughter had gone to check on Lucy. Of the thirty-five people that lived on the Estate and were a part of the pack, only twenty-three were here. Five of them were on patrol meaning that there were seven people missing total.Seven traitors.“No answer?” Tony asked our beta. He shook his head. “I’ve called all of their families too, but all of them are gone. All of their stuff is gone too.”I grit my teeth and hissed as our nanny applied some silver anecdote to the wound on my back and pressed a bandage to my side. It smelled like tar and motor oil, but

TonyI paced. I hated. Every step I took felt like I was losing control, but I couldn’t help it. It was either this or murdering my entire pack. I tried not to think of the row of graves that weren’t even a decade old as I pushed my instincts to pick up something. But there wasn’t even a trace that she had ever been here. I looked up at the window of the luna’s chambers and tried to breathe through my fury. This can’t go on. I told Matt as he came up to stand beside me. I can feel my control slipping. “We’ll find her,” Matt said. “If we can just figure out how she could have been taken from the estate without anyone knowing…”If they’re all in on it because she’s only a half breed…“We can’t jump to that conclusion yet,” Matt said, wincing. “I really hate being the voice of reason.”Tony snorted. Can you feel her at all?He winced at the question. Matt’s shoulders slumped. “I… Tony, I couldn’t ever feel her.”I nodded stiffly. Me either.I couldn’t feel her even when we were nearby

LucyWhere was I? Somehow, I wasn’t dead. Everything was hot and cold. I felt terrible. When I opened my eyes, sunlight stung my eyes coming through the trees. I smelled wet earth and fresh water. There was this other scent too, like compost in my nose. I didn’t recognize where I was. Why was I outside?I tried to sit up. It was so hard. Everything hurt and my stomach kept turning like I wanted to throw up. Was I going to throw up? My stomach heaved and bile burned my mouth, but nothing else. I couldn’t remember the last time I had eaten.I frowned, no. I remembered. Someone had brought me food, but after that, I couldn’t remember anything. I heard something move nearby and froze. Slowly, I turned and the bright red eyes of a dark furred wolf were staring at me. I screamed.I tried to get to away from the wolf, but the wolf didn’t try to approach me. It sat at the edge of the clearing as I dragged myself away from it. There was something in its eyes that was making my heart race.

LucyI opened my eyes slowly. It smelled like roses and something else. I could hear Matt and Tony’s voices. I looked up as the sound of sloshing water filled my ears. The hot and cold feeling had gone away, but the zapping sensation was still there. I shuddered as I felt it again. Everything still hurt, but the water was warm.“Hey,” Tony said softly. “How are you feeling?”“Warm,” I said. “Good,” Tony said. “Matt’s a bit upset with me since I had you in the car. He’ll probably want a turn soon.”“Probably?” Matt scoffed. “We’re supposed to be sharing. Of course, I’m going to want my turn! She’s my mate too.”I looked over at Matt. His eyes were sparkling as he kneeled beside the tub. He looked a little pale, and his eyes were dazed. He cupped my face and kissed me briefly. “As soon as we get you cleaned up. We’ll get you something to eat after.”“I’m not hungry,” I said. “You might be later,” Tony said. “Do you remember what you ate last?”“Instant noodles.”Matt frowned and look

LucyWhen Tony or Matt weren’t having sex with me, I was sleeping. I don’t know what they were doing while I was asleep, but I woke up with Matt in bed with me most of the time. I didn’t even know how long it had been since I was brought back. We were staying in Tony’s room while they were repairing the doors and walls of my room. I could hear them working down the hall. Matt turned over and pulled my hips back, and thrust into me with a groan. “Quick before Tony comes back.”I gasped as he rolled me onto my stomach. He pulled me onto my knees and thrust into me. The bed rocked softly. He leaned over me as he thrust harder and harder. I could barely breathe as he shuddered and came. I felt something warm inside me as he slumped over me and panted in my ear. “You always feel so good,” he whispered in my ear. Then, he pulled out of me and pulled me back into his arms. “Did you sleep well?”I nodded. Then, the door opened. “Matt,” Tony said. “Get out of bed and take Lucy outside.”He
Sold to Alpha Brothers 34. We’re mates
LucyMatt took my head and pulled me along into the building. “We’re going to at least find out what kind of ramen you like today.”“Okay.”We got to the restaurant. Everyone seemed to recognize Matt, but when they looked at me, I could feel their dismissal. Matt pulled me through the restaurant with his arm around my waist and walked me to the bar in front of a man in a white jacket. The man smiled pleasantly and bent his head. “A pleasure to see you, Mr. Chance.”Chance? Was that their last name? Was that my last name now too?“And your lovely companion. I will be taking care of you today. Can I start you off with something to drink?”I turned my head, looking out the window. The windows looked different from the inside, but I could still see the rest of the city. Nearby, there was a woman glaring at me. Her face was flushed. Her make-up looked like she stepped off the cover of a magazine. She looked like she was wearing an expensive outfit. Her necklace glittered around her neck.

Lucy“What’s hard about it?” I asked. “Am I making things difficult for you?”His eyes twitched. “You really think all we want from you is sex?”I blinked. “No.”His eyes brightened. “Really?”“You said you wanted children,” I said, looking away. “I thought that was… why all the sex.”He looked like he’d been gutted. “What about… the time at the bar? We protected you. That guy was going to take you from us.”I blinked. “You bought me for a lot of money….”“Lucy,” Matt groaned. “You’re our mate. That doesn’t matter.”I blinked at him. “Okay.”His eyes twitched again. He looked more frustrated by the second. He stuffed some more ice cream in his mouth. When he was done, he threw the empty cups in the trash and pulled me away from the area. I could feel how frustrated he was with the way this was all going. Soon, we reached a store with a bunch of jewelry on display, and he pulled me inside. “What’s your favorite color?” Matt asked. “Yellow.”He turned back and pulled me up against hi

Lucy“Lucy?” He asked, pulling me up against him. “Are you all right?”“I’ll be fine,” I said softly. He leaned closer. “Is it the poison? The doctor said you would be affected for a little while longer.”“I don’t know,” I said. “Maybe.”“You’re probably also still hungry.” He sighed. “Let’s get out of here and get you something. Maybe a nice steak or something will help.”He paid for the jewelry and carried the bags out. As soon as we turned out of the jewelry store, the two women who had been following us blocked our path. “You ended it with me for this nobody?” The woman shrieked. She sneered at me. “She’s not even half as pretty as I am! Who is this girl?”Matt let out a long sigh. “Are you really going to cause a scent in the middle of the mall?”“Who is she anyway?” She hissed. “You never bought me anything! We were seeing each other for months! “She glared at me. “You little—”“That’s enough,” Matt said, pulling me closer. “I told you we were done.”“Not for something like h

LucyThe morning sun, a mischievous wink through the blinds, painted golden stripes across our bed. I snuggled deeper into the warmth of David's embrace, the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest a soothing lullaby. He slipped his hand across my lower back. The warmth of his bare skin against mine set a spark of pleasure through me. He rumbled low and content into my hair. “Wake up,” David rumbled. He kissed my head and twined a curl around his finger. “We have things to do.”“You shouldn’t have kept me up all night.”He chuckled. “You didn’t say that last night.”I nudged him. He dipped his head to nip my lips. “You know, if it’s too much, you can always tell me to slow down.”He’d been saying that for five years now, and I never found a reason to tell him to. He knew that. His eyes flickered between colors. I nipped his lower lip. “Give me a reason.”He smirked and rolled me onto my back. “To slow down or…”“To get up,” I said as he kissed

LucyI sat on the cold stone, watching her, but she didn’t move another muscle. I didn’t know how long it had been, but it didn’t matter. The spectral glow around her was starting to dim, and my mind was just too stressed to do too much thinking. The light of the ritual, the spell I’d used, the blood on my hands all flashed through my mind, and part of me wondered if it was all just a dream. I looked down at the stained and ruined gown. The armor was as pristine as ever, but most of the embroidered roses were torn or stained. This dress would never be white again, let alone whole. I flicked a piece of the long, gossamer fabric and shook my head. I really liked this dress.“Lucy!”I turned my head toward the sound of David’s voice, wrung out and relieved to hear him. He was rushing through the air towards me. He dropped down a few feet from me, looking so worried I could cry.I smiled at him as he dropped to his knees beside me and threw his arms around me,

LucyI sailed through the air, landing with a jarring thud within the ritual circle. With a trembling hand, I pushed myself up, my senses on high alert. A figure, cloaked in darkness, appeared in front of me. My blood ran cold. Selene."Well, well, Lucy," her voice, honeyed yet laced with venom, slithered into the darkness. "Thank you ever so much for making this easy at last.”I grit my teeth. I wouldn't go down without a fight. Straightening my shoulders, I met her gaze, my voice shaking but resolute. "You underestimate me.” “No, Lucy,” her voice dropped, and a cruel smile twisted her lips. "You underestimate me.” The chanting grew louder around me. I lunged for the necklace, my fingers grazing its cold surface before Selene snatched it away, a triumphant gleam in her eyes. But that touch, fleeting as it was, ignited something. I felt her pushing at my mind. I felt her shoving me back until I could see the forest from before, and we were fighting in a ci

MattMy vision pulsed and flickered, a strobe light of pain blurring the edges of reality. Tony rained blows down on me, slashing with claws. Each hit chipped away at my resolve and my control, leaving behind a raw desperation to end this quickly. My armor protected me from most of the damage, but still. He was always the stronger of the two of us. I thought it was just because he was the older of the two of us, but this was different. I thought for sure he was going to bite off my head. Then, a flash of golden light arced through the air, and a spear lanced past my shoulder, catching Tony square in the chest. I turned back to see Ginevra hovering in the air. Her golden dress glowed as she passed me with a glowing winge spreading from her back. What the absolute fuck?Tony staggered, falling to the ground, and Dad darted forward, encasing Tony in a shimmering web of light. The wave turned to chains. He thrashed and howled, straining against the magical bonds, but t

LucyPeter's breath hitched, rasping, and shallow, then deepened into a cough that wracked his battered body. His eyelids fluttered, eyelids so pale they were almost luminous in the dim torchlight. He struggled to get up, leaning on his Spear and on Michelle. The light pulsing through the Spear rippled over his skin. He let out a soft sigh and stumbled a little. “Peter?”“I... It’s gone.”“What?” Michelle gasped as his hair started to change, losing the gray color and growing dark. His face turned younger until I was sure that he was all of twenty-something. He grew a bit taller, too, bigger until his shirt strained against his chest and his buttons popped. He flushed. “Well… that’s not…” He cleared his throat as Michelle smiled up at him. “So this is what you looked like in your youth?”He scoffed. “I’m much younger than you think.”He grunted, pressing a hand to his side. “Wish the Spear would heal the wound, though.”I winced. “Sorry… it’s a

PeterMy feet pounded a frantic rhythm against the uneven earth, branches whipping at my face, thorns tearing at my clothes. How long had I been running? How much further did I have to go? I didn’t know, and it didn’t matter so long as I got there. My lungs burned, legs screaming in protest, but still I ran. The trail of blood behind me and the patchwork of wounds across my body, chunks of missing and regrowing flesh, weren’t my concern right now. The creature—the wolf was after me, and unlike before, it didn’t seem willing to back off or slow down. It was going to kill me, and what happened after that was anyone’s guess. Behind me, the guttural snarl of the wolf echoed through the trees. Too close to be comfortable. Too close to make sense. This was too much like that dream, but worse. So much worse. The sky was a kaleidoscope of images I could barely make out. They flashed in the sky and in my vision, making it hard to see. I saw Lucy. I saw Michelle. The long

LucyAdrenaline surging, I grabbed Michelle and pulled her after me deeper into the inky depths of the tunnel.“Quick!”She panted. “What’s going on? Peter—”“He’s possessed,” I said. “Just keep running for now!”I saw my Allison up ahead, leading me down another tunnel. Behind us, I heard Peter's guttural snarls, the rhythmic thud of his feet echoed eerily in the confined space. We had to lose him and the other one quickly, but we didn’t seem to be putting enough distance between us. Panic coiled in my gut, urging me to run faster and push my body beyond its limits. Michelle kept up relatively well. We twisted and turned, navigating the treacherous path by torchlight and the spectral murmurs of White Moon's fallen. But the passage seemed to twist back on itself. When we were back at the forked path, the faint light that had been illuminating the tunnel went out, plunging us into darkness.Michelle shuddered. She drew closer to me and tightened her grip on m

LucyI was back in that house with that couple that adopted me. I felt the floorboards creaking as I went downstairs. I saw the men in suits. I shrieked, turning. Not again. I couldn’t be back here. Where was David? How had I gotten back here? I looked down. I wasn’t… wearing the dress or the armor. I had no daggers. My hair was just as uncombed and dry as it had been then. When I looked in the mirror, the skinny young woman who had barely had anything more than ramen and school lunch stared back at me. My stomach lurched. The door opened, and I turned to run, knowing what was about to happen. I dug my heels in as dark shadows pulled me towards the door. I felt myself being lifted onto someone’s shoulders. I fought and kicked, but all my training and all my strength were gone. I saw the calendar on the wall, but the date was different. It wasn’t my birthday. It was the day of the Crescent Moon Festival. I screamed, grabbing anything I could manage. Then, Sele

DavidOren's head arced through the firelit air, landed, and rolled. His body dropped to the ground, still spurting blood. Then, all hell broke loose.The shimmering barrier around the Ball faltered, rippling like a pond, before collapsing entirely. Hunters poured into the arena, their snarls blending with everyone's shocked gasps. “Defensive measures, now!” I yelled, my voice carrying over the sound of the attack. A group of dragon shifters took to the sky as my blade clashed with the first hunter. How had they gotten through the barrier? I saw a flicker of a ghost and growled. “Selene!” I shoved the hunter back, slicing through him before sending out a shockwave of air. She’d been behind this, and maybe she’d been planning this for years, using the werewolf virus to spy on the preparations. It would make sense to try and get rid of me. I was the direct descendant of Fenris. More than that, it was their movements. Each and every one of them moved e
