AXEL POV ' Alright. I'm in position. Grayson is just leaving the packhouse now. I'm in the woods in my wolf form.' I say in the mind link. ' Alright. What did you tell Asher?' Ivy asked. ' I told him that I needed to visit a sick relative. He didn't care. You need to contact him and let him know that you and the babies are alright. He doesn't know what to do with himself. He's not himself.' I explained. ' Everything will be fine soon. Just follow Grayson for as long as it takes to find out what he is up to.' Ivy says. ' You know that I will. He's just leaving the territory now. I'll keep you updated.' I explained cutting the link. I followed Grayson back to his pack but I couldn't go on his territory because they would know and they would definitely kill me on site. His warriors weren't as good as ours, but I was only one warrior. That's all Ivy insisted on following him. So that he wouldn't notice. She knows that Grayson is up to something but she won't tell me what. I hat
ASHER POV As soon as I came out of the gym I walked through the kitchen and I saw the kitchen staff quickly move to the back door of the kitchen and into the other room to avoid me. Everyone had been avoiding me lately. I didn't blame them. I wasn't really the nicest guy to be around. And with my Alpha aura rushing out of me at almost every time I opened my mouth, I just chose not to talk to people anymore. Because I was hurting my pack by doing that to them. I knew that it wasn't fare on them, but I can't help it. The mood I have been in for the past couple of weeks has been unbareable and I don't even like the person that I am becoming. I am mean to my own people, my pack is scared to be near me, my son is once again back at Beau's house because I am afraid that I will take my anger out on him. Not that I would hit him or anything. But I knew that I would eventually lose my temper with him and then he would be scared of me. That wasn't something that I was prepared to live with f
ASHER POV It took Axel a little while to wake up with the help of everyone else in the room while I stood back leaning against the wall not wanting to talk to him and not caring that he was knocked out. He deserved it as far as I was concerned. I had no sympathy for him at the moment. For none of them. When he finally woke up he sat up slowly and he saw me leaning against the wall glaring at him and he just knew that he was busted. That I knew everything before he even got back here. " Get ready. We leave in half an hour." I ordered before pushing off the wall and going upstairs. I needed to make sure that Axel was in his right mind before we left because he was the one leading the warriors. He was the one that knew where she was. He looked exhausted when he got back to the packhouse, but I really didn't care. He was taking us straight back there. One car was going and the rest of us were going by foot. We were only taking a car because Ivy can't shift. We knew that was the onl
IVY POV I was sitting in my bedroom reading a book when I started feeling this slight pain in my stomach. It was a little uncomfortable but I could handle it. I waited for a few minutes when another pain hit, only a lot worse causing me to actually grab my stomach. " Oh shit. Not now." I say. I knew that I was going into labour. I sat up straight on the bed and I pulled my legs over the side and I tried to breathe through the pain. I knew that this wasn't going to be good. I was scared. I didn't know what was going to happen. I got another really sharp pain that made me crimple forward grabbing my stomach and I couldn't help the whimper come out of my mouth. But just then I saw a sparkling light outside my window. It was up near the sky so I slowly stood up and I tried to get to the window to look at it. I saw holes being punched through the shield around the property and I knew that help was on it's way. But I got another contraction and I fell to the floor and screamed out in
ASHER POV The four of us charged at Wyatt but he stood on his hind legs which made him look at least 8 feet tall and he swiped his paw and knocked Beau to the side hitting the house and swiped his other paw and hitting Axel against a tree in the woods. And it was just me and Cole. Cole and I still ran up and I leapt off the ground to attack him when his paw wrapped around my neck and I was dangling in the air as his grip was getting tighter. Cole grabbed on to his other hand with his jaw and Wyatt tried to shake him off but it didn't work. Cole wasn't letting go. But Wyatt also wasn't letting go of me. I heard Cole call for help in the mindlink and wolves that were around the back of the house started running around to the front of the house. Wyatt managed to shake Cole off and grabbed him by the leg and fling him across the yard while another warrior jumped up but was thrown off of Wyatt like he was nothing. Another one jumped up and latched onto Wyatt's shoulder. The same one
IVY POV Walking out the front of the house I thought I looked a mess because I hadn't changed my clothes but then I saw everyone outside and I had nothing to worry about. Asher and I walked outside holding a baby each and we saw the remaining warriors look on happily at us with the newest members of the Alpha family. And that I was alright. I looked down and I sat Wyatt, the huge uglty bear lying lifeless on the ground with his heart beside his head. " You two go ahead in the car. We'll fix everything up here." Cole says. So Asher led me over to the car and Axel drove while Fiona was in the passanger seat and Asher and I were sitting in the back seat with the babies. I moved right over to the middle of the seat and I rested against Asher. The warmth of his body, the feel of his muscles, everything I have been craving for months. He was holding one baby in one hand but had his other arm around me. Hold me as tight as possible towards him. His emotions seeping into me like ther
The twins and I were released from hospital a week later and it was so good to finally be home. And the staff was all there to greet us and welcome us home. But I saw them all giving Asher sideways glances while he was holding one of the baby capsules. " Listen, I owe everyone here an apology. I know that I wasn't myself while Luna Ivy was gone. And I am really sorry about that. I swear I will do whatever it takes to make it up to you. You don't need to be scared of me anymore. She's home now and I am complete with my girls' home." Asher announced to the staff. And I could tell how genuine he was and so could they. A lot of them physically relaxed afterwards. " It is so good to be home and to see you all again." I say to everyone. " Come on. You need to see the girls' room. We've been busy working on it while you've been in hospital." Asher says. So we walked up to the third floor and the room next to Connor's room was done up completely in pink with two cots and two more of ev
" I am over here." I ordered gaining her attention. " Yes. I can see that. You are looking well. Better than the last time I saw you." She says. " Yeah. I'm not writhing in pain this time. But that's not why we're here. It's to discuss that obviously rediculous plan to take Axel in place of removing that shield from the house." I say. " It wasn't reculous. It's what I wanted. And you made damn sure to stall those plans. My elders have told me that your mate customs don't apply to us so that's why I decided to come here. I'm taking him with me." She says. " No. You're not. And our mate customs apply to everyone. If you try to take a wolf from it's mate then all hell will rain down on you and whatever coven you belong to. And if you know anything about me, you know that I will find out whatever that coven is." I say. " We know exactly who you are. But we had a deal and no one breaks a deal with a witch." She says. And then I heard some noise outside. And the witch and I were st
I ran to Noah to make sure that he was still alive, and I let out a huge sigh of relief when I saw that he was still breathing. He was bleeding and he was injured, but he was alive. " I knew that was the only way to get you alone." Nick says from the door behind me. I turned around slowly and stood up. I was looking for a way out, but I couldn't get out. Not with Noah. I couldn't carry him. He was too big and heavy for me to carry. I was trapped. I wasn't leaving him here alone. " What did you do with Asher?" I asked. " You don't need to worry about him anymore. No one does." Nick smirked at me. " No." I screamed. " Well, you bought them here. You knew what I was. All this blood is on your hands." He says. " Why the hell would I ever want to have anything to do with you? Asher and Ivy are the only ones in this world that have never treated me like shit or tried to use me for my powers. I know that you were going to." I yelled as tears were falling down my face. " Are yo
It only took about half an hour to run to the house while in wolf form because we cut through the woods and we were really fast. It was fun running in wolf form though. I loved it. But when the house came into sight I got a sinking feeling in my stomach. The house was huge. Almost like a mansion but luckily it had a huge yard, because there were other houses next to it. We didn't want civilians getting hurt. And no one said anything about evacuating civilians. So Asher wasn't going to tell the neighbours what was going on. I guess he didn't want to tip Nick off as to what was happening. I looked up at the house and all the windows were blacked out and the sun was just starting to appear but it was still dark. So I shifted back and I quickly got dressed. Noah shifted back for a moment and he grabbed my hand and pulled me to him to kiss me. " I love you." He says. " I love you too. I'll see you soon." I say. And I started walking to the house. As soon as I got to the front doo
My life was compeltely different from what I knew it as. My days were spent with Ivy training with my powers and training how to fight. She was an awesome teacher and I'm glad that I got her instead of the warriors. She was tough on me but she wasn't insanely tough like the other instructors were on the trainees. Noah and I weren't seeing too much of each other. He was going to school and then working after school but we still managed to have dinner together at night and we tried to watch a movie or something to have a bit of time together. Ivy told me that was important. To make sure that we spent as much time together as possible. I guess she knows that from experience. I've heard all the stories of her being kidnapped and going missing and even Asher. They were horrific stories to me and I couldn't do that to Noah. I wanted to make sure that I spent as much time together with him as possible. I knew that they were already making plan to attack Nick's hideout but they were wa
As soon as we got the news that we knew where Nick was staying then Ivy was right on top of me about getting control of my powers. We needed me to learn how to control my powers so I don't hurt the people around me and I only hurt the people I intend on hurting. So she took me to the training grounds that she reserved just for us and we sat on the ground and crossed our legs. " Now, with powers like this meditation is the key to being able to control what you are going to do." Ivy says. " I've never really been one to meditate." I say. " It's concentration. You need to concentrate on what you are doing. Meditation is the key to doing that. You need to learn." Ivy says. " Alright. I'll try." I say. I've always had trouble meditating because there's always too much crap going on inside my head. I know that I need to give it a chance, but I can never calm my mind down long enough for it to actually work. I closed my eyes while sitting on the ground and I took a couple of deep
Every morning Ivy was working me like a dog at training and Noah and I had also started going to school in the pack. We were meeting new kids from the area and it was good to have kids that we at least had something in common with. Noah made friends easier than I did, but at least he never left me alone or anything like that. His friends became my friends and I didn't really mind that. I always seemed to get along better with guys then with girls. And I could tell that a lot of girls were starting to hate me for it. But I didn't really care. It wasn't my fault that I wasn't a girly girl. I was actually surprised that she-wolves were like that. They cared too much about clothes and make up and all the same stuff that regular girls cared about. But that stuff never interested me. And I think it put them off a little bit. But I knew that as long as I had Noah then I would be alright. He had been my lifeline for so long and I guess that wasn't going to change now that we're in this pa
The whole walk back to the packhouse was quiet. No one talked but I was fully aware of how close Ivy and Asher were behind me. They were angry with me. I knew that they were angry with me. I should have told them the truth from the start but I didn't think I had any choice. I had to keep it to myself. Noah was in danger. When we got to the packhouse I noticed that the living room light was on and when I walked inside Noah ran over to me and hugged me. " What the fuck do you think you were doing?" Noah snapped at me while still hugging me. I could actually feel how angry he was. And he was letting me know. That was a lot better than Ivy and Asher. They weren't yelling or screaming or punishing me. They were just quiet. It was really nerve wracking. I knew that they would never trust me again. They didn't have a reason to. I kept a huge secret from them and they needed to know the truth about vampires coming back to their territory. But I thought I would be leaving with them and
That night I didn't get very much sleep at all. I was tossing and turning all night until I finally got up and I went downstairs to the kitchen to get a drink. That's where I bumped into Ivy. She was down there giving the baby a bottle. " I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt." I say. " What are you talking about? It's the middle of the night. I welcome the intrusion at this time of night." She says. And I chuckle. " I just came to get a drink. I can't sleep." I say getting a bottle of water out of the fridge and I sat at the kitchen island next to her. " I can imagine. Tonight was pretty massive for you, wasn't it?" She asked. " Yeah. It was." I say. " I know that things haven't been easy for you. I get that. I know exactly how that is. I grew up knowing my father but I didn't actually know that he was my father. He was the Alpha of my old pack and he raped my mother when she was 14. She got pregnant with me and she was shunned by the whole pack. He ordered the pack to ha
It was clear that we weren't starting school today because school was cancelled. Too many people were concerned about the safety of their children. Apparently this pack has met day walking vampires and didn't want to risk it in case any might be on the land. So we just sat around the packhouse and I was lost in thought for most of the morning while we were sitting in the living room and I saw the kids running around everywhere. All of the kids. Quinn and Patrick included. They really did look like they had ADHD but they were just werewolf kids when Ivy came into the room and their kids ran over and jumped on Ivy. " Regan. The meeting is happening tonight. He insisted that you be there. But there will be a lot of protection so they won't be able to try anything while you're here." Ivy explained. " Where will the meeting take place?" Noah asked. " At the boarder." Ivy replied. " Outside? Really?" I asked nervously. " Trust me. You'll be alright. We will have warriors surro
When we landed at the airport we had to get into more cars that were waiting for us but it was just a short drive to the Blue Moon Pack. I heard that's what they called themselves. " Oh my god. I knew that you owned a large pack, But I never imagined it would be anything like this." Noah says looking out the window. We saw people around everywhere. The town was bigger than his pack town. And as we kept driving we saw three different training grounds with hundreds of warriors training in each other them. Noah was amazed but I was a little terrified. I didn't know what to think. " It's good to be home." Ivy says from the front seat of the car. " Tell me about it. I hope my brothers haven't set fire to anything while we were away." Asher says. " I don't think your brothers are the ones that we need to worry about anymore. I hope the kids didn't set fire to anything while we were away." Ivy says. " Oh yeah. I forgot about them." Asher says. And Ivy hit him in the chest. " I'
