Lee's p.o.v"Felix!. Felix." I called as I quickly rushed towards her. She was walking quickly while crying loudly.I stopped moving and sighed heavily. It was a matter of time till all the vampires knew where we were.I needed to set a portal trap right under her feet so she could teleport back home.I knelt down and touched the ground, whispering a spell over and over again. When a spark lighted up, it quickly moved in a straight line hitting her feet. She was about to take another step when the Portal opened beneath her, pulling her in and closing."What have you done to her?" Ian asked when he approached me."I sent her home." I answered, then grabbed his hand and rushed back into the palace. I could sense some vampires approaching us. "I think they know that they have intruders in their territory." I whispered when we went upstairs together."I don't care about them, all I care about is Samantha." He responded when we reached the door .We walked in and found the twins standing
Amelia's p.o.v"Is that so?" I asked on the phone with a smile while I walked back and forth in the bedroom."I felt so embarrassed over how I acted. Did I seem desperate?" Whitney asked seriously."What, no way. Whitney you are an Alpha, the need to mark and make him yours overwhelmed you that's why you went ahead and marked him first." I answered."I know Amelia, but did you not hear the part when I pushed him down and began moving my hips while licking his neck!" She exclaimed."Whitney I heard and honestly I think he must have enjoyed it." I answered honestly.An hour had gone by and she still was asking the same things."No Amelia, the look on his face was that of shock. He didn't expect me to do that to him." She whispered softly.I moved to the bed and sat down comfortably."I think you are overthinking. Uncle seems to be a very kind and understanding person who can never get upset over something like that. You are his mate and the love of his life, you doing all that to him sh
Leomord's p.o.vI stood looking at the door to the cottage sadly.What was I going to tell Whitney if she was to ask me how I went?. I didn't want her to feel sad or know that the twins were with me. Although we now trusted August, it wasn't a good idea leaving him alone to manage everything. The territory was too big and the members there were at times stubborn as hell. I was just hoping she wasn't going to ask a thing. After Ian had gone, Lee created two portals for us. One for the twins that led straight to the territory and another one for me that led here to the cottage.There was nothing left to say or do, and what was done couldn't be undone.The door opened and Whitney came out running.I happily embraced her when she ran into my arms."Leo." She whispered softly."I'm back." I said then rested my head against hers.It felt so damn good to have her in my arms again. She looked at me without a word for a few seconds then her smile vanished."You feel sad." She said Softly wh
Felix's p.o.v"Here." Chase whispered while extending his hand towards me which had a small cut on it.For the past few days he tried to make me feed but I refused.Despite treating him coldly he still came back to clean my room and look after me.Although I didn't speak to him, he bathed me, dressed me up and fixed my hair.I felt bad doing that to him but I was very shocked, sad and depressed since my parents death. I only wished they could have talked to me about everything or laughed with me one last time.I wasn't mad at Ian for what he did because that's what they wanted. To die.I didn't know how to mourn them besides keeping quiet and crying my eyes out whenever I thought of them."You won't drink again today right?" He asked softly then sighed heavily."Anyway, next week I won't be around." He whispered then leaned in and brushed a strand of my hair back."I'll be going back home." He said as I frowned."Remember what I told you that time?. You and I are bonded together. So y
Ian's p.o.v "How do I look?" I asked Amelia seriously while I drove. "Perfectly handsome." She answered, then moved my hand to her lips and kissed it lightly. A few months that went by I made sure to call Samantha every week to check up on her. Even when she told me she was doing fine I was still concerned. In order to prove to me that she was back to her usual self and very happy, she invited me, Blade and Neo to her place. I decided to go with Amelia and that's exactly what the guys did too. They decided to go with their mates. Logan and Nana were the ones looking after the pack on our behalf until we returned. I glanced at Amelia and saw her looking at her phone in concern. "Is it my mother?" I asked softly. "Yes. She was reminding me to keep myself warm because it would be cold in the evening." She answered. Now that Amelia was close to delivering, my mother was even more concerned and nagging. Although it was annoying, I was happy that she cared so much about her. "She
Damon's POV: "You don't need to play fair in fights. You need to be wiser and faster if you lack strength!" I exclaimed to all my warriors, trying to make them understand my point. After a minute of silence, I continued, "Most of us lack strength, but we are very intelligent, and that alone is key. Just because you are missing a leg or an arm, it doesn't make you less of a pack member." This time, I spoke calmly. I wanted them to know that it didn't matter that we were a rogue pack. If other packs knew about us, they would laugh and mock us because it was unheard of for rogues to join or form a pack of their own. Rogues were mostly banished or deemed unworthy pack members by their original pack. They were unwanted and unloved, while some were those with a broken life or will, be it rejected by their mates or alpha. I understood them well because we shared a similar story. Once upon a time, I had it all: a pack that adored me with their whole hearts and a very handsome face. I
Sherry's POV: I was trembling and in pain. For weeks, I had been walking aimlessly and waiting for my death. I was hungry and thirsty, yet I couldn't help myself. My own mate had blinded me and wished I was dead. I accepted my fate and honestly had a change of heart at the last moment. I wished for everything I had back as part of the pack, yet I couldn't appreciate it. "Neo," I whispered in silence as tears rolled down my cheeks. I missed him with all my heart, as much as I missed my wolf. For days, I tried to commit suicide, yet I was so scared of the burning pain I would experience. As much as I wanted to leave the face of this earth, I was a coward, waiting for someone to lay their hands on me and end me. By the sound and a few conversations I had picked up while being dragged here, I knew that I had crossed a pack's territory. Their growls of warning made me stand still, not wanting to move to upset them. When a light voice asked me what I was doing on their land, I was sp
Damon's POV: "Damon, why are you so upset?." Alec asked once we were in my office. "I just had a rough morning," I lied, then quickly sat down behind my desk, thinking back to the incident that had happened yesterday. I wasn't angry; I was beyond that. I wanted nothing to do with her. That's why I had decided to go back. But when Alec approached me, he pointed out how I needed to decide what to do with her because we always made a decision the same day when a rogue crossed our territory. I was conflicted for a minute but decided to go with him. When we reached the damn cell, I knew there and then that she was my mate. My wolf was purring, and her beautiful, intoxicating scent was stronger than her dirty, disturbing scent. I felt confused at that moment about how the Moon Goddess would bring her to me when she knew that I wanted nothing to do with her or any other woman. Was I perhaps supposed to laugh at how she had planned it all?. Knowing I was a scarred-face bastard, did s
Kyle's POV It felt so unreal when my father called Larson and me into his office to tell us how we had to prepare ourselves because tomorrow the ceremony was going to take place.All we could do was look at each other and then at him in excitement. We were also nervous about everything."How are you feeling?" Larson asked me seriously.We were in the training field exercising."A little of everything. You know, scared, nervous, excited, and happy," I answered simply."What about you? How do you feel?" I asked."I feel so nervous and scared, but also excited because I have always looked forward to standing by your side when you take over as Alpha," he answered."I'm glad," I said honestly."Larson and Kyle, go to the border right now," my father's command came through the pack's mind link."Gosh, what now?" I whispered and then began to walk to the border with Larson right by my side."Maybe we are receiving other visitors," he said."Like who? Every member of our family is right in t
Ian's POV"Are you sure they aren't close by?" I asked Neo."I am positive, Ian. Tamara, Lexi, and Yuki went to give Tanya a tour of our pack. As for Blade, Larson and Kyle, they went to help Nana and Sharon with something," he answered."Okay," I whispered, then cleared my throat and looked at everyone seriously."I'm glad to have you all here today, and I'm also kind of proud of you, August, for choosing your mate instead of some women who took you out of your misery," I said, then laughed softly when he rolled his eyes."The main reason I asked most of you to come over wasn't only because of August, but because of my son and nephew," I said, and then moved forward."I have wanted to take a step away from everything and finally step back from being an active Alpha for a few years now. Unfortunately, Amelia was against it because she knew Kyle wasn't ready. That's why we sent him to the training camp," I said seriously."But now Amelia and I truly believe he is ready. We have also se
August's POV "Are you okay?" Tanya asked seriously.I wasn't okay in any way, but I wasn't going to tell her that.I was already nervous while driving, but now that we were here, I felt like I had made a wrong decision.I could see the twins laughing and mocking Tanya, and us fighting because of that. I could also see Felix making a lame comment about how I went for the daughter after the mother failed to make me stay."I am fine," I answered and then frowned when I looked at the entrance.Something was definitely wrong.Not only did we cross Ian's pack, but we were parked close to the pack house, yet no one was there to welcome us. Not even the warriors, when it was so obvious that Ian knew I had crossed his border."Shall we go and knock?" she asked."Yes," I answered and then got out and went to open the door for her."Thank you," she said softly when she stepped out."Don't mention it," I answered and then shut the door."Do I look okay?" she asked in a low tone.I looked at her
Felix's POV"Remind me again, why didn't we use the portal?" I asked Chase, who was driving the car."I told you already, Sammy. Lee and Jeannie will be running a little late," he answered and then gave me a warm smile."They just had to go and visit them; how annoying," I muttered."Family is never annoying," he said in a low tone, then focused on the road.He was right; family was everything, but I was still annoyed that Lee chose to go and visit his family with Jeannie right after Ian had told us about his plans for Kyle and Larson's succession.“Screw him,” I whispered softly."Hey, sweetheart, we have reached," he informed me simply.I looked at the pack house that was visible from afar after we had crossed the border, then sighed.I was really looking forward to seeing my baby girl more than anyone. Besides that, I missed Ian and Amelia a lot, but I wasn't going to openly admit it until they said it first."Remember what we talked about? No more showing disgust towards Larson. W
Kyle's POV "You sound grumpy," Lui said to me on the phone."Maybe it's because your sister hasn't picked up any of my calls. I miss her a lot, and I think you understand how I feel. Or maybe it's because Larson can't stop rubbing it in my face how happy he is," I answered seriously.Yesterday, when he went back with Tamara, I did want them to have a good time together.But when they came back laughing and walking hand in hand, I envied them. I wished Yuki could be here with me. I felt so lonely, and so did Lionel."I told you how she was busy helping Mom out with something. When she is free, I will tell her to call you," he answered."Well, we can't all feel the same way, can we?" I muttered."Dude, she does love you a lot; she is just very busy. Also, is that how a soon-to-be Alpha acts and reacts? Have more dignity and faith in everything and everyone," he said loudly."Says the guy who can't take his mate to that magical place we were," I answered in a mocking tone."How did you
Larson's POV "Do you like the smell?" Tamara asked with a smile.I inhaled deeply and then nodded."I like it," I answered simply.We were in a store looking at perfumes and trying to see which one suited me the most. Although she looked serious whenever she didn't like a scent, she seemed to have a lot of fun.My plan was to go out to eat, but when she saw the store, she asked me to pull over, and I couldn't say no."Although I love this a lot, let me check out that purple one at the far end of the shelf," she said and then went to grab it.I turned and looked at the jewelry display that was close to the entrance. Since we walked in, my eyes had been set on a beautiful blue diamond necklace and how amazing it would look if she wore it."She would love it," my wolf said, making me chuckle."I don't think so. Since we walked in, she didn't even spare a glance at the jewelry," I answered."Maybe she is being considerate of us," he said seriously."Please, we’ve been getting a monthly
Dusk's POV "Maybe a little rest will do," my father said with concern."I don't need rest right now, Father. I want to be stronger and better," I answered seriously."You will with time, but all I am asking you to do right now is rest," he said.I looked at him coldly and then nodded."Fine, I will rest," I answered and then went to sit on a beach that was under a huge tree.The training field was wide and a large area that most warriors used. But there was a certain side that was considered a resting place. Only a few warriors came there to rest, and we figured it would be a good place to use for my training.I hated being watched, and my father knew that. That's why I was relieved when he chose this place."You stay here; I'll be right back. Oh, and I'll ask your sister to bring you some cold water," he said and then walked away.Micah was my cousin, but because my father took her as a daughter, she became my sister.I paid no mind to that because I loved having her as a sister. I
Tamara's POV"Making a speech like that is a little too much," I said seriously in Larson's room.When he called my phone and asked me to come over, I didn't know what to expect, so I put on my best outfit and applied light makeup to my face.As soon as I reached his door, he opened it, grabbed my hand, pulled me in, and shut the door behind us.He was so excited that he couldn't wait for me to sit down when he told me how he and Kyle were soon going to be the acting Beta and Alpha.I was sincerely happy and proud; that's why I hugged him tightly and told him exactly how I was feeling.When I pulled back and sat down, he began sharing a few speeches that he would say on the actual day and asking for my opinion.I told him the truth, and he went on to make a few adjustments to those I liked."Maybe I shouldn't do any of them, seeing how I have never heard anyone ever doing it before," he said in a dejected tone."What? No, you should. Just because no one has ever done it, it doesn't me
August's POV "Am I not doing anything wrong, am I?" I asked Ried as I looked at the tray of breakfast that I had prepared."You are actually being awfully considerate," he answered, making me smile."That's the least I can do for being a jerk to our mate," I replied, then grabbed the tray and nervously walked to the bedroom with it.I wanted what happened between us to happen so badly; that's why I was happy when Ried took the initiative.Now that we had been making love and just being in each other's embrace for the past few days, I was thinking of myself as a selfish bastard who wouldn't let her rest, yet I couldn't stop myself.When Ried decided to be the first one to embrace her, I immediately accepted and took a step back because he was what I was supposed to be to her, and that was an amazing mate. He deserved to mark her before I could even do it.He was so respectful, even when I took over and decided to spend my time with her in bed.I really was lucky to have him as a part
