THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA TWENTY-SEVEN
TWENTY-SEVEN"Why all of a sudden?" I had stepped away from him and I was now occupying the couch with my elbows resting on my knees. I had to have my own space, I could not think clearly when he was at a proximity that made my breath hitch. And I needed my brain at its best, he just dropped the 'I'm leaving' bomb. I was still trying to process everything."I have to take care of something." He answered his hands through his hair. He was still standing but he had his gaze fixated on me. His stare was one of the reasons why I could not think properly just yet."What exactly?" I asked and raised my head to stare into his eyes. I wanted clear answers. 'Take care of something' could mean a lot of things, it could mean finishing a contract signing or taking care of a pet or it could mean taking care of someone, or killing someone. I needed something clear if my mind was to relax and not worry. I was worried even if I was unsure as to why, he was a grown-ass man who could travel the whole
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA TWENTY-EIGHT
TWENTY-EIGHTChewing the inside of my cheeks had become a stress reliever since Jaxon had informed me about his trip to Greece. I was starting to feel sorry for the insides of my mouth with every minute. Sleep had failed to find me and I had only drifted off into an hour's sleep before I woke up again to look around my room and sigh deeply. My mind had kept on drifting to the events of the night before and it would bring a smile to my face, only to be crumbled by the endless torture of Jaxon's departure. It did not seem like a big deal, but everything in me told me that it was a big deal.He would only be gone for a week and if things did not go according to plan, it could be another week. I had tried to drill that idea into my mind, telling myself that everything was okay and he would come back after a week. I almost believed myself for a moment before doubt started seeping in again. What if it turned into a week and then into two and then three and before I knew it, a whole month. I
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA TWENTY-NINE
TWENTY-NINE'Shortly' turned out to be after I had eaten and showered. Like the last time, Danielle had not bothered to knock or use the doorbell. My heart had almost escaped my chest when I saw blue hair peeking through my blankets after I came out of the bathroom. Vera and Danielle were both on the bed cuddling. Apparently, they had decided to wait for me to finish showering and the bed was the best bet since it was cold. I gave them a piece of my mind about sinking into someone's bed without their permission when they are bathing."The first thing I saw was blue hair. Do you know how scary that is?" I pointed an accusing finger at Danielle and in return, she gave me the wide smile that made her look innocent and cute. I sighed and walked into my closet, deciding to let it slip.I had known that spending a week or possibly two with Vee and Danny would cause permanent damage to my brain cells and wear out whatsoever energy my body had. So when Danielle proposed having to come up with
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA THIRTY
THIRTY"I can't believe none of us thought of carrying money when coming for ice cream." Danielle laughed and ran a hand through her hair, playing with the ends of it before her hands rested on the table. "I wonder whose fault that was." I mused sarcastically.We were still seated on the bench but we had finished our ice cream and were just talking and eying people who walked past us. Some of the people threw us curious glances while others decided to just ignore us. I knew that rumours had already spread about the Alpha finding his Luna but that did not mean I was in any way ready for the looks people constantly threw at me. I loved attention but not attention that put me in a complete spotlight, I preferred more like backup singer attention. Not all the looks I received were simply curious, some of them looked like they wanted me six feet under, others were of disgust and the worst were the ones who shook their heads.I knew that I was not the best person out here and I could not p
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA THIRTY-ONE
THIRTY-ONE"How could you guys be so irresponsible?" I was enjoying every moment of the scolding session, mainly because it was not directed to me. Vera and Danielle were getting continuously reprimanded by Cora and I sat on the couch with a pout and an innocent look crossing my face. A small part of me felt terrible for them- key word, small. Cora crossed the room again and glared at the two who were seated on the same couch. Taylor walked into the room and handed me a cup of juice with a smile before sitting too."You were supposed to be her company regardless of anything, imagine if anything bad happened." Cora threw her hands in the air and sighed. "I know that meeting your mate was exciting but you could have made it back earlier. As for you," Cora turned to Danny after lecturing Vera. "I'm sure your cousins would have been okay without you." "I'm sorry, they couldn't sleep because of flu." Danielle apologized with a guilty look and that made me feel bad for her."This is kind
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA THIRTY-TWO
THIRTY-TWO"What?" "I said tomo...""I heard what you said." I cut Alec off. "But why so soon?" "Because the sooner peace is restored the better. If their problems become worse, our pack will have to get involved and we both know that that will not end well." He reasoned and I nodded.We all knew if any of the packs surrounding the Blazepelt pack had disputes that would endanger the safety of the Blazepelt pack members and their peace, they would have to get involved and that did not seem like a great idea. If this pack got involved we could as well consider the Scarlet pack and Raven-crow pack to be extinct. The peace treaty definitely sounded better than going to war. If those two packs wanted to make it through this they would have to accept to make peace."Tomorrow," I muttered under my breath and sighed before walking out of Alec's office.I found myself in the kitchen with Vera and Danielle waiting for me to finish having lunch and go back home if I could even call it my home.
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA THIRTY-THREE
THIRTY-THREEThe ride was surprisingly not as long as I had anticipated, mostly because of Adam's never-ending blabber. Cora had slept halfway through the journey, resting her head on the headrest and her arms crossed in front of her chest. Adam had made fun of her posture by noting that she must have been uncomfortable. Anderson on the other hand decided to ignore each and every comment Adam passed and kept his eyes on the road with a tight face. Only the goddess knows how he manages to pull off a straight face for that long, I would start laughing in the middle of having a straight face. It definitely would not last a whole drive.From the way, everyone's characters were polar opposites I could tell that this trip would be nothing any of us planned for. I tapped Cora causing her to stir in her sleep and only reposition herself, I tapped her once more but with a shake to it. She opened her eyes, glaring at me as if I had pulled her back from heaven to hell. "We've arrived sleepyhead
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA THIRT-FOUR
THIRTY-FOURWhy was I doing this again? Oh yeah, it was because Alec thought it was a great idea to send me on a mission. I had made up my mind that I would never agree to anything Alec says or suggests because this was an obviously horrible idea. Only the stars know how I was even meant to be a Luna of one of the most powerful packs, I could not cope. Every second my eyes would wander to Cora and thoughts of how she even managed to handle all this work without breaking down swarmed my head. She was strong but you could see from her features that it was exhausting. Guilt ate me up every time my eyes met Cora's tired ones. I finally understood that she could not handle all the work on her own including that which was mine. I was woken up early by Cora because breakfast was ready and the proceedings had to start at eight in the morning. That made me groan, it reminded me of waking up for school every morning. Why were the proceedings so early in the morning? That time is someone's bedt

THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA EPILOGUE
EPILOGUEAnabelle had Jaxon's arm around her, it was the comfort that she needed at that moment. His scent was what she needed more than anything. Everything around her was dull and dark just like the clothes that she was wearing including the weather. Jaxon tightened his hold around her waist and looked down at her because he could feel every emotion that she was feeling. She looked at the graves of the fallen members and guilt and pain swallowed her. How did the loved ones of all these people feel? "It's okay, my love" Jaxon whispered to her and kissed the top of her head. She looked up at him and gave him a sad smile before walking away and going towards Adam's grave. She could not believe that he was gone just like that. He was so young and had not even experienced the joy of having a mate but Anabelle was glad that he had not found his mate because if he had they would have been disappointed and in pain over losing their mate. She remembered how hurt Micah looked and she wished
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA EIGHTY
EIGHTYTAYLOR'S POVIt was like the sky knew of our loss, it was completely dark and the rain was heavily pouring down and hitting the roof. I could hear the strong wind blowing on the leaves of the plants as I looked outside through the window of my and Danielle's room. The turmoil in all our hearts was almost the same as the gloomy weather that swept everything away. I looked down at my fingers and curled them up, trying to keep warm. If only things had turned out differently. My heart clenched with every memory that rang through my head. Her laugh, and those shiny green eyes, haunted my dreams every time...when I slept and when I was awake. Every thought of mine always trailed back to her. Whenever I cooked something I thought about what she would think about it. When I said something I wondered if she would agree with my words. If she were here with me, would she wake me up and tell me that I was having a horrible nightmare because it sure felt like one?The rain poured and swept
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-NINE
SEVENTY-NINEAnabelle could not comprehend what she was looking at. Bodies were lying everywhere, it was a terrible massacre. She could tell that Amaris was no longer holding back and was indeed doing what she promised to do, to wipe off werewolves. The smell of blood was heavy in the air and the number of bodies only seemed to increase as they drove to the pack house. Amaris had attacked the pack's centre and killed anyone she spotted. Guilt ate at Anabelle as she looked at the cadavers of people that were once so alive. 'Ana, where are you? I've tried to evacuate as many people from the pack house as I can but Amaris is killing the warriors that are trying to hold her off like they are mosquitoes.' 'We are almost there,'Cora's words haunted her mind, Amaris was on a killing spree and she would not stop until she killed the last werewolf. Her leg started moving and she constantly chewed on her bottom lip as they drew closer to the pack house. Anabelle gasped when the house came in
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-EIGHT
SEVENTY-EIGHT"We lost three men, and if we include the library caretaker, Mr Cray...then we have lost four pack members." Alec gave the report to Jaxon and sank back into his seat. "We were able to retrieve the bodies of the warriors, they were horribly scorched because of the fire but hopefully we can give them proper burials.""And the witch, Mr Cray's sister?" Anabelle asked."Well, that is none of our concern. She was banished from the pack for practising dark magic and we are not responsible for her as a pack, we have certain customs to follow as a pack." Alec replied and shrugged at the end.Anabelle wanted to argue with that decision, surely the woman deserved a proper burial too. Despite being a witch she had also been killed by the person that killed the men of Blazepelt. Anabelle wanted to speak out on what she thought but Jaxon held her hand and when she turned to look at him he shook his head. She understood from the look in his eyes that she should not argue, his eyes pl
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-SEVEN
SEVENTY-SEVEN"Are they actually having sex?" Adam whispered horribly next to Danielle's ear. Danielle turned to look at him and hit his arm."What do you want them to do? It's a man and a woman in the same room and they are mates by the way." Taylor looked up at Adam from the pan. "This day has been quite eventful and despite the time no one knows how long it is going to be night," she added and continued stirring the food that she was preparing. With the Alpha and the Luna in the pack house, she had to include them too in the meal plans, not to forget she had hungry warriors waiting to be fed. "They've been going at it for quite some time now," Adam commented and looked up at the stairs. "You will not be able to get enough of your mate when you find her and then maybe you will understand." Micah joined in the conversation and took out a seat around the kitchen counter. He was finally in clean clothes and had washed off what had happened earlier. "Thank you," Taylor smiled up at M
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-SIX
SEVENTY-SIXAnabelle was crying hysterically and kept on shaking Jaxon's body to get a response from him. Even a twitch of his fingers would have been enough for her. The temperature was getting higher as more trees caught the fire that Amaris had started and the fire circled around them. She could see the others trying to fight against the flames, trying to find a way to get everyone out safely. Two men had come to her and told her that they hard to get out of the place, they wanted to carry Jaxon but she could not let go of his body. She kept crying and wailing because she felt empty without him, if this was how Jaxon had felt when she was unconscious then he was strong. She already felt like she could not live anymore but he had dealt with her going into and out of unconsciousness. She pulled him closer to her and hugged him to her body, his head on her chest. She could hear the beating of his heart but she was so worried because Amaris had cast a spell on him. What if she had don
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-FIVE
SEVENTY-FIVEAmaris knew that he could win with one move but he decided to let Anabelle have her fun. In the end, whether he won or "lost" he would continue with his plans, nothing could stop him. He considered this fight as a little treat before the actual meal, it was a way to pass the time as his mind came up with more ways to end Jaxon Ryker and the werewolves. He could defeat Anabelle with his eyes closed, he was her after all. Whatever she knew, he knew...all the knowledge of fighting that she had gained from those two warriors. He was definitely better at fighting compared to her because he had learnt over the years of roaming the mortal world. Anabelle and Amaris had been going at each other for quite some time, and none of them was yet to land a hit. While Anabelle was the one throwing all the attacks, Amaris continued to easily avoid her hits smoothly. It seemed to everyone that was watching that Amaris knew Anabelle's moves more than herself. Amaris was smiling while Anabe
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-FOUR
SEVENTY-FOURVera's leg was shaking nonstop, the heel of her shoe making noise and her arms were crossed in front of her arms. Millions of thoughts and possibilities were going through her mind. She knew that if Anabelle had been in her place she would have been the first one to fight for her, she would not be seated and waiting on news as she was. Anabelle would not have been in this room like her, she would have risked everything to save her. She was angry at herself for staying back when her best friend needed her. She should have guessed before that either Jaxon or Alec would try to stop her in some way or another. Alec had called Milo to look after Vera and that meant not letting her out of his sight. Vera could not blame Milo as he sat on the bed eyeing her, he was only carrying out the Beta's order and keeping his mate safe. She was angry at him because he did not understand a word she had said since he locked her in this room. Milo kept on saying that he was doing it in order
THE BLOOD STAINED ALPHA SEVENTY-THREE
SEVENTY-THREEJaxon wanted to plunge his claws into Amaris, he had felt anger before but he was livid. All his life when people angered him there was no Anabelle but now she was there and this person had dared to mess with his mate. He glared at Amaris and growled, a loud and vicious growl filled the air. Amaris only smirked more when he knew that he had angered Jaxon. Everything around him was starting to blur and the only thing he could see was the glowing person in the air, his anger had fully clouded his sense of judgement. He was about to stand to attack when he realised that there was a weight in his arms, he looked down and his anger dissipated when his eyes fell on his mate's beautiful face. Jaxon knew that he could not afford to lose his cool, although he did not trust any other person except for himself to protect his mate he carried her and ushered her into Micah's arms because he was the closest to him. He turned back to face the threat while Micah knew what he had to do
