2024-10-29 19:42:56Grace,” Stephen murmured. If I had thought his tone was cold, it was nothing compared to the shimmering veins of ice in his eyes, rooting me to the spot as my childhood nerves came flooding back
I should have known he would still be here. It wasn't uncommon for ALphas to step down from their role, allowing their sons to ascend earlier than planned in order to keep the strongest wolves at the top - this would serve as a warning to other packs. We were lead by the strongest, but if by some stretch of the imagination Duke was to be defeated, Stephen was still here, ready to take his place if Duke did not have sons old enough. In the meantime, Stephen would act as a rule enforcer, making sure the pack lived in relative peace
Ha. As if Stephen had ever wanted peace. He wanted to rule with an iron fist. I felt my anger resurface once again and so I straightened my spine with pride. I was better than him, he would not get the satisfaction of seeing me crumble

"Where did you learn to dance like that?" he breathed, his voice coming across thick with lust. I swallowed hard, my eyes stuck in a rhythm of drifting down to the huge bulge in his trousers and back to his face with evident nerves. This is what I had been aiming for, wasn't it? I had wanted to toy with the alpha.I just had no idea he would be so... so... I don't even know. I was overwhelmed, seeing the evidence of his arousal, the open, wild want in his eyes as he pinned me to the spot with his piercing gaze. I swallowed again, my tongue darting out to wet my lips that had suddenly grown dry. Duke followed my actions causing a dart of desire to hit me, my pussy clenching as the first waves of passion began to take over me."Grace?" he repeated, standing in front of me now, reaching out to grab a lock of my hair, twisting it around his fingers."I... the other warriors..." I paused again, once more wetting my lips. I couldn't believe that was my voice, it sound

How did Duke manage to do this to me? Despite my resolve not to ever visit my father during my stay here, I soon found myself freshly showered, in clean clothes and stood outside my dad's room.I took a deep breath to steady my breathing, feeling the lightheadedness and sweaty palms that indicated the beginning of a panic and attack and turned my frantic eyes in Duke's direction"I don't know if I can do this - I know we promised not to talk about it, I know, but I can't walk in there, not after everything that happened!" My arms were flailing wildly as I spoke, my words coming out in a jumbled mess.Duke grabbed my hands and placed them on his chest, allowing me to feel his strong, steady heartbeat beneath his clothes. "Breath, Grace. I'm right here. I promise you, I'm not going anywhere. We'll do this together."I closed my eyes and took a moment, timing my breathing based on his, following the rise and fall of his chest. My head was ready to explode, m

The call with Khaos lasted all of 30 seconds. Even in that brief moment, I could tell something had happened. He sounded monotone and dead inside - something I would expect with a background such as his, but he had always remained upbeat with me. All he would tell me was that he needed somewhere to stay for a while to clear his head. Of course, I said yes. He hung up soon after.I wasn't in the mood for talking either, but Khaos had been a perfect excuse. Now I was left with an endless amount of time on my hands as Grace said goodbye to her father. As much as I had wanted to stay with her, I knew she needed her privacy at this moment.My mind was reeling. I had been conditioned to believe that Grace had tried to seduce her father. I hadn't believed it at the time but when more and more evidence came to light, as well as Grace's silence, it was difficult to remain true to her. Now though, now I was seeing things in a whole different wayWhy would she hold such re

I woke up dazed and confused, not knowing where I was or what had happened. My dreams had been plagued with visions of demons and monsters, ready to capture me and punish me for my crimes - subconsciously I knew this was a warning from the Moon Goddess.It was only the steady pressure on my hip that brought me back into the present as I blinked, trying to take in my surroundings, eventually focusing on the soft, perfect face of DukeHe was leaning on his elbow, his hand propping his head up at the temples, his other hand wrapped around my hip, keeping me close to him. There was a look of concern on his face and a gentleness in his eyes.It was true then. My father was dead. I wondered how much he knew at this point. Did he know I was responsible? Much of the night felt like a blur to me although I could vaguely recall Duke caring for me, treating me so gentle as though I was made of glass and the slightest knock would shatter me foreverHe didn't know the

A gasp resounded around the compound the second I had pinned Duke to the floor. I saw the brief warning flash through his dark eyes, quickly followed by a cloud of anger.I let my tongue loll out as I cocked my head to the side- the equivalent of a wolfy grinAre you giving up already? I projected to him, loving the power I had over him at that moment nothing in this life comes for free, Duke. You want me as your mate, you have to earn itSurges of excitement ran through my veins, my wolf almost salivating at the thought of what was to come. Was there anything better than having your mate chase you down? To use all your wits to out manoeuvre him, to have him show his strength and intelligence until eventually, inevitably, he had you pinned beneath him, his own little conquest for the taking.Honestly, I grew wet at the mere thought. Oh yeah, we needed this right nowMy wolf growled at Duke once more, bending her head low to deliver a painful nip to

Duke landed on top of me with a force that had my chest crashing against the ground, the air leaving my lungs in a painful wheeze.His teeth were on my neck straight away, his sharp bite breaking through the thin skin as he pinned me down and held me in place.Submit he ordered through the bond, challenging me to defy him as my body continued to thrash beneath him. I wanted to keep fighting, to show him just how defiant I could be but the Alpha tone running through his command was irresistible. His voice boomed through my mind and I was lost to it, as smooth as honey whispering to all the loving and hopeful yearnings I had kept hidden for years.Last warning he told me as I lifted my hind legs, trying to shake him off me with my rear. His teeth sank further into my neck, just above where his mating mark would have been and my eyes rolled into the back of my head in response. His voice dropped with confidence and power, knowing that he was overpowering me. I shiv

Duke spun on his heal, walking away from me and into the en suite bathroom. Before I had chance to register what was happening, he had pulled out the full length mirror and placed it directly in front of me.I stared at him with a puzzled frown, bringing my legs tight together, my cheeks growing hot with embarrassment as I was forced to look at the evidence of my own glaring arousal.Duke tutted, slowly moving around me until he was st my back, sinking to his knees behind me as he brushed the hair off my shoulder, exposing my neck, his other hand creeping up my stomach and up to my tits. He grabbed a handful of one and then the other, his fingers circling around my nipped until they were stiff, erect peaks. He murmured his approval in my ear, his husky voice sending a shiver of anticipation racing through my body.His hand moved further up my body to wrap around my neck, giving a gentle squeeze."Do you like toying with your alpha?" He whispered, his brea

How can one wolf cause so much devastation?Khaos had been here less than a day, and already he had caused more drama than any wolf I had come across – it was almost as if he enjoyed it. As if he knew that drama would follow wherever he was, and he fully embraced this.As soon as we had heard that he was smashing up the packhouse, we had thrown our clothes back on and raced down the stairs.I had gasped at the scene in front of me – his warriors had Duke’s pinned to the floor, raining blow after blow down on their faces whilst Khaos screamed at anyone within his vicinity that he was an Alpha, he didn’t need to answer any questions. He was in charge of his own destiny, and he wasn’t about to let a little Goddess bond stop him from doing what needed to be done.I honestly had no clue what the fuck he was talking about, but what I did know, was that this needed to be stopped, and quick.Khaos was throwing his fists into w

was blessed.The Goddess had looked down on me and finally righted all that was wrong in my life.Duke and I had spent so many years together, raising our pack of "misfits" and doing all that we could to ensure that they had the most stable, loving pack to grow up in. Together, we were reshaping their future, rerouting their path so they were no longer outcasts, delinquents, destined to repeat the mistakes of so many before them.With our help, they now had prospects, ambitions, a dream to reach for in this scary, confusing world.Thousands of wolves had passed through our packs. A lot of them were angry and borderline feral, some were timid, thrown out of their previous packs for being weak. By the time they left us - if they left us - they were strong, confident, trained to the best of their abilities.It hadn't taken Duke a long time to come to terms with the fact that he would never be a father - after all, neither of us had god examples to lea

Well?” I demanded, growing impatient with her lack of response. I loved her, I would always love her, but she was as stubborn as they came. Worse than that, she was projecting her anger on to me, even though I didn’t deserve it. I understood why... there was no one left for her to be angry at. She had all this pent up rage and hatred, things she had suppressed for years, and now when she was finally ready to begin the healing process, there was no one left for her to confront. Her demons needed to be sated, and I was the only connection to the past she had left. Which is why I was showing her more patience than I perhaps should do. But I wouldn’t accept her pushing me away. “Grace... I know you have demons, and I know that the past still eats away at you. But your baggage is my baggage. Why can’t we deal with these things together? I feel like you’ve tried to compartmentalize everything in your head, and you’ve come to the decision tha

I decided to stay.I loved Duke, but I couldn't imagine a life with him. There was too much under the bridge, too much heartache for him to ever be able to fix me completely.And it wasn't his job to fix me.I had to work on myself before I could be part of a couple - I'm not quite sure that's exactly what Alpha Theo meant when we spoke, but it was the lesson that spoke to me.The time Duke and I had spent apart so far hadn't been enough. I needed more.I retreated to my room and went back to my old friend - exercise. It wasn't what I had planned, but it brought me comfort. It helped me to hide from myself.So that's where I was when there was a knock at the door, and Alpha Theo poked his head round."You have a visitor, Grace. Remember what I said to you earlier, about hiding you from things you weren't ready for? Maybe that wasn't my decision to make. Your mate is here, and though I'm not trying to sway your decision in any way, he

Dad? What the fuck are you doing?” I muttered the minute I shifted back into my human form.He followed suit, glaring at me as pushed himself to his feet. “Stopping you from making the biggest mistake of your life. That girl is trouble. Don’t let her drag you down too.”“You’re really going to say that to me, after all that you’ve done to her?”“Me? I haven’t done a fucking thing to her.”“Give it a rest. I’ve read the letter that Thomas left.”“What letter?”“You can play innocent with me, that’s absolutely fine. But I know what letter, and you damn sure know what letter.”“It can’t be the letter I think it is, because I possess the only copy, and I saw to it that no other person would read it.”“You would do well to remember that you’re not the only cunning and manipulative person in

I ran, running faster than I could ever remember running before.I had one opportunity to make this right, there was no more room for error. Even I knew that Grace was fast reaching the end of her tether, she would not accept any more fuck-ups from me.I was fast approaching the edge of the pack borders, almost feeling the weight lifting off my shoulders as I escaped this place. I had thought the heavy feeling I got every time I came home was because of my responsibilities, the never-ending jobs and commitments. But it wasn’t.It was the burden of my family, the shame of the past. I had known there were secrets in this pack, but I hadn’t realised just how evil the motivations were from those I had looked up to, those I had tried to mould myself after.Just as my front paws went to cross over the threshold, just as the precious freedom was almost mine, I was attacked from behind, my body hurtling across the ground as the wolf threw themselves o

So Helen came back, with her tail firmly tucked between her legs, and she took me as her mate to ensure that she was still in a position of power. From what she told me, Fang had promised that if her baby was a boy, they would overthrow Grey, challenging him to position of Alpha and raise their baby as the future heir. It would be easy, they would have the support of the pack, Fang told her. They were already questioning just how long Grey could continue to rule without someone to ensure his place, and the security of the pack’s future and they would welcome his brother with open arms, it kept it within the same family.How true that it, I couldn’t say. All I know from that moment on, is that Helen refused to speak of Fang. If her story is to be believed, both Fang and Grey threatened her. They warned her that if she didn’t leave immediately, they would rip the baby from her stomach and feed it to the dogs, and then she would be pinned down in the forest, he
THE LUNA ALPHA MATE Chapter 25
Yes. Helen and I were not choice mates. She found her mate in Fang, and as I’m sure you can imagine, neither were interested in denying the bond that they had found. All Fang asked was that Helen hold off finalising the mating until she had met his brother – Alpha Grey.Helen didn’t tell me much about their time before she went to meet Grey, but I do know that they spent all their time together and as a consequence, by the time she went to Fang’s pack, she was already pregnant with Grace.I can imagine your reaction to this, Duke, finding out in such a non-chalant way that Grace is not my child. Don’t show my any sympathy, I was aware from the very beginning that Grace did not belong to me – Helen never tried to hide it. She accepted me as her choice mate for many reasons, but I do like to think that some motherly instinct kicked in and told her that her child would be better raised with a father – especially in our world.

Alpha DukeFirst of all, let me start off by saying that I am forever grateful for the way you have handled my last few weeks in this pack. I’m not stupid, I know the end is near, but it doesn’t make it any easier to accept – especially as I know the clock is against me and I don’t want to take these secrets to my grave. Call me selfish, but I would rather face the Moon Goddess with a clear conscience before she makes her judgement. But more on that in a moment.I’ve instructed the pack doctor to write this letter for me, word for word as I speak it. You can confirm this with them, but make sure you read the entire thing. They won’t allow you to confront them, they will always be bound by doctor/patient confidentiality, even against an Alpha’s orders. I couldn’t take the risk that you would somehow find this letter early and demand answers. I may have been your father’s most powerful Beta, but I was always a coward

Fantastic news about Khaos and Violet, isn’t it?”“Huh?” I asked, my head shooting up to look at Duke. I had been sat on the edge of the bed all afternoon, waiting for him to come looking for me. We needed to talk.“Khaos and Violet? Having a baby? Isn’t it amazing? He’ll be a fantastic dad.”“Right. Duke—” I tried, my eyes following him around the room as he absentmindedly undressed, walking from one end to the other.“I can tell you don’t believe me, but trust me. Behind that hard exterior is a heart of gold. He’ll do anything for his children.”“I’m sure he will. Listen –”“It got me thinking… Kids, matings… It all seems so final, doesn’t it? It should be end game. It should be happily ever after. I know them two have a lot to work out, but I really believe they can make it.”“End g
