Summer POV

“Lace with wolf’s bane,” Ezra said, placing a knife in my palm. “Silver bullets.” He pulled out a gun from the duffle bag.

“Silver’s illegal! You’re not supposed to have this.”

He raised his brow at me. “I’m the Alpha.”

“What else do you have in there?”

“Enchanted chain, courtesy of Henrietta.”

I ran my fingers through the large metal chain. “Am I supposed to use this on my wolf?”

“It’s an option mate. You don’t have to worry about anyone else attacking you because I’ll rip anyone who comes near you to pieces. It would be a nice way to blow off some steam.”

He reached into the duffle bag but I grabbed his arm. I ran my hands up his biceps. He pulled me close and breathed me in.

“Thank you,” I whispered.

“Don’t.”

    Summer POV“Let me out!” I slammed my boot against the trunk door but it was useless.I heard them laugh and my heart dropped to my stomach.“No,” I whispered and rolled to my side.The car roared to life and backed out of the property. I was right my wolf was on the property. She was so close but yet so far.My heart ached for Ezra. I knew a door couldn’t stop him not even if it were made of silver.I stuffed a knife from the duffle bag into my boot, but it wasn’t strong enough to open the trunk. It was worth a shot, though. I pulled the knife out of my boot and searched for an opening. It was dark, so I was relying on luck.“Damn it,” I muttered.The car swerved and rocked violently until it came to a crushing halt. I fumbled the knife and sliced my palm as a result.“Ouch.”What happened?I held still and listened for anything. Doors slammed shut and curses went flying. It wasn’t just Conner and Blake but I didn’t recognize the other voices.“Hey!” I screamed.They obviously crashed

    Summer POVEzra pulled his shirt over his head and shoved it into his wardrobe. Ugh, men. He pulled off his pants and threw them on the chair in the corner where the rest of his other slightly worn clothes were.I was in his bed watching him. He turned around and caught me. He smirked and I blushed.“Really Summer?”“It was a nice show.”“Will I get one when I come back?”I rolled on my back and he came over to sit on the bed next to me. He stroked my hair and suddenly his face turned serious.“You can come with me. I liked the feeling of having you on my back.”“I don’t want to ruin your night. I’ll be here when you get back.”“Babe, do you want me to stay? I don’t have to go for a run tonight.”He’s the Alpha and he has to lead the run every full moon. I remembered the full moon Ezra and Dad got attacked

    Ezra POVA run was just what I needed to cool off. My Alpha General was on my neck for taking Blake’s pack I didn’t mean to but he needed to be punished. The best thing for me to do to prevent him from retailing was to put a permanent Alpha there as soon as possible. I offered Roman the job but he didn’t want anything to do with his ex – Summer’s Mom.We had run for hours and most of these guys could keep going but I was ready to return to my warm mate. It had been a successful run and there was one tomorrow but I was going to spend the night with Summer. There were a thousand things I could come up with for us to do.“Come on, Ezra, you’re giving up already?” Noah asked through our link.I sniffled and kept walking. “I’m done.”“He really is an old man,” Oliver replied through our link.“We’ve got two old men in our group,” Noah add

    Summer POVHe hung up on me! He’s probably in the council meeting I rationed. I went back to cleaning the tables at the bar. I hadn’t been here in ages and it oddly felt good to be busy.“Hey! Do you even still work here?” Lettie said with glee from the bar.“Barely. I’m about to put out vacancies,” Marley replied.I shook my head at her. “I’ve been busy lately.”“She’s going to be even busier with her mating ceremony coming up,” Wren sang as she wandered between the empty tables.“There is no mating ceremony.”When two powerful Alpha’s have sex it causes a power surge. The forces of our Alpha wolves spread out among the pack and everyone felt it. It’s supposed to be good for the environment and make wolves stronger. I thought it was a myth until we created one. Though, now everyone knows Alpha Ezra has a fated mate.I still couldn’t fathom how he had two mates. A part of me thought the moon goddess was puni

    Summer POVDerek took Lettie into his arms.“This is my fault. I-I don’t know what happened. I couldn’t shift.”Derek eyed me with a raised brow.“Long story… but thank you.”“Don’t thank me. Lucky for us Rocco wanted to stop by a bakery.”“And you made fun of me,” Rocco puffed.I clutched my head as an intense ringing went off.“Summer are you okay?” Derek asked.My vision blurred and all I heard was the ringing sound. Couldn’t they hear the sound? Derek split in two and the ground wobbled.“Mate…” a ghost-like voice said. “Where are you?”I shook my head. I wanted the ringing to stop before it blew my head open.“Please stop,” I whispered almost helplessly.A cold hand landed on my back. I looked up to see Rocco staring at me with concern in his eyes. The ringing went as quickly as it had come. Well, that was unexpected and painful.“Did you guys not hear that?” I asked.

    Summer POV“You’re the one standing in my mate’s house,” Sophia responded.I laughed. “Ezra didn’t tell me you were funny.”Sophia clenched her jaw and placed her hand on her hip. She grinned and I swear her eyes twinkled. I couldn’t stand this woman she irritated my wolf. My Alpha female wolf wanted to tackle her to the ground but I returned Sophia’s smile and pushed my wolf away.“Where is Ezra anyway?”“Upstairs, asleep,” I said quickly. “Want to leave a message?”She shook her head and strolled inside, swinging her bag at her side. “I’d rather wait for him to wake up. I’ve got things to talk about with my mate.”I bit the inside of my cheek. This was getting ridiculous. Ezra could not have two mates!“Are you sure you even want this Summer?” Sophia asked, her voice sweet and innocent.“What?”“Ezra’s a lot older than you. He’s an Alpha and he’s in contention to be Alpha King. Do you want the resp

    Summer POVEzra dragged me upstairs and pushed me to the bed while he marched into the bathroom to clean his bloody fist.“Aren’t you going to say anything?” I asked.My response was the sound of water running. He hadn’t said a word while he picked up his brother’s unconscious body and took it outside. I knew better than to follow him so I snuck into the kitchen and peeked out the window. Ezra dumped Hunter in the storage shed. He would smell a lot worse than he already did because the shed was a refuge for wildlife.“How did you find him?” he asked.“He was locked in the wall. Do you have secret rooms in the house or what?”It was an old creepy castle it must have more than a few secrets.He folded his arms over his chest. Irritation and frustration rolled off him. I let out a shaky breath. Hunter’s been missing for days and each time I asked about him Ezra brushed me off. I thought they got into a sibling squabble. Unl

    Ezra POV“How many were there?” I demanded.“Over a dozen,” Oliver replied.I left Hunter back at the mansion locked and tied in the shed. The rope I used wouldn’t be enough to stop an Alpha wolf unfortunately but it was the best I could do at short notice.“Recognize anyone?” I asked.“Yes, the gamma. Looks like he was running the operation,” Roman said.The betas got here after the rogues ransacked and trashed the place. They took everything in the cash register but couldn’t get into my safe.“The gamma’s name is Bowen. The one intimidating your busboy,” Noah added.I nodded. “I know who he is. I can’t wait to get my hands on him.”“What’s he got against you man?” Oliver asked then punched my back.I growled. “I don’t know. He’s a roach waiting to be squashed. I’

    Summer POVEzra’s wolf prowled around, sniffing bushes and staring at trees. I sat with my legs folded in front of me while he eased his rage doing whatever it was he was doing. I think we ran out of Whispering Hollow grounds and ventured into one of Ezra’s tribe Packs.When Ezra conquered other Packs he liked to take the Packs closest to Whispering Hollow. The Broken Creek Pack had to be one of the furthest Packs. It smelled like a bunch of foreign wolves all over. They were wild tonight, but Ezra wasn’t worried.He stopped sniffing the bushes and came to butt his head against mine.We shifted back to human form at the same time. We rested under the stars nestled in each other’s arms.I sighed. “This was great.”He rubbed my shoulder. “Yeah, even though you cheated on the run here.”“What? No, I’m just faster than you!”He chuckled. “We need

    Summer POV“On the bright side, you and Estelle are full-blood sisters,” Ezra said, stroking my hair.After Mom left Marcella still didn’t let me in the house. She insisted Dad needed to rest and he wasn’t feeling well enough to argue with her. That battle wasn’t over.I leaned on Ezra’s shoulder. “She always wanted to know who her Dad was, Ezra. He was right there the entire time. Mom saw how it affected her but she kept her mouth shut. Isn’t she evil? If that isn’t evil, then I don’t know what is.”Ezra stroked my hair.“I’m sorry Vixen,” he exhaled.“Not as sorry as me. Marcella won’t let me see Dad. Can you believe that?”“Hey, why don’t you relax? You’re still recovering from your attacks.”“Ezra, I’m fine.”The poisonous liquid Dimitri gave me did leave my thr

    Summer POVEzra brushed his lips over mine. The tender kiss turned passionate and hungry fast. He parted my lips and sought out my tongue. He kept me at his house for a few days so I could recover my strength. I told him I felt better and he took it as his opportunity to pounce on me.“Ezra,” I said between kisses.He climbed on top of me and kept me down with the weight of his body. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back. It would be so easy to stay in the safety of his arms but I had been in this house for too long. I needed to check on Estelle and Dad.I needed to check on my friends as well. After losing Marley they must have been worried sick.“I have to go…” I moaned.He stopped kissing me and raised a brow. “Go where.”“I’m better now, babe.”“I don’t care. I’m never leaving your side again.”“Wh

    Summer POVI vaguely remembered Viktor. His sister I knew and she hated me. He had a striking resemblance to Jacob, but if I remember correctly Jacob and Viktor didn’t get along well. Viktor left Broken Creek a long time ago. Though they were cut from the same rotten cloth he could still be a threat.“What are you doing here?” he asked.He wore loose black pants while I was completely naked.“I-I… was just passing by.”“You’re a long way from Broken Creek,” he said.I wrapped my arms over my chest. “I know… how far from Whispering Hollow?”“You’re a long way from there, but why would you want to go there?”I bit my bottom lip. I didn’t trust him.“If I wanted to kill you I would have done it a long time ago. You’re on my land after all.”“I know your Mother has it out for me what if you just hand me over to her?”He frowned. “I could. I haven’t spoken to her in years. I doubt she knows I’m alive.”Jacob was her favourite son. You could tell by the way she babied him.“You killed my br

    Summer POVI spat the disgusting liquid into Dimitri’s eyes. He dropped the bottle, the stuff flew everywhere. He cried out and rubbed his eyes.“Bitch!”Some of that stuff went down my throat. It burnt worse than any vodka ever.Dimitri screamed and knocked over things as he battled to get the liquid out of his eyes.Serves him right for trying to force that stuff down my throat.“Alpha!” Rocco yelled.“What did you do to him?” Sophia cried.I rolled my eyes.A couple more betas entered the room and tried to help Dimitri but he shoved them all off.“You’re going to pay for this. Tie her up!”He clutched his left eye and marched out of the room.Rocco marched over to me and slapped me.My wolf showed restraint.“Prepare,” Clover said.I thought she wanted me to survive this thing and fight later. Though there was no best time to escape and I couldn’t jump out of a window.“You think you’re all that, huh?” Rocco shouted. “Just because you’re an Alpha Female!”“I know I’m all that.”He

Hunter broke free and the cell doors weren’t strong enough to keep Bowen at bay.My betas were down, Hunter ran off and I was completely alone.I backed Bowen into a corner. My blood was all over the place but my wolf wasn’t backing down. Bowen’s cursed wolf growled and panted. He was tired. He couldn’t do this for much longer.I pounced on him and locked my jaw around his neck.After this I’m getting rid of half the beta army and the rest are going through gruelling routines. How the hell are they all down?“One last chance, who’s your master?” I growled through the mind link.“Go to hell, Ezra.”“Then die.&

    Summer POVIf I fall out of the window and break my leg it will heal after some time. Of course, then I wouldn’t be able to run away. Derek would just catch me again. The bathroom door was locked but that won’t stop werewolves.I stuck my top half out of the window but the fall was two stories.A boot slammed into the door. It jerked forward and broke off its hinges.The window was my only option. I climbed out of the window just as the door flew open.“Nice try Summer,” Derek laughed. “Get her.”Rough hands grabbed me and dragged me back into the bathroom.“No!”“Wouldn’t expect anything less from a she-wolf like you.”Derek dragged me back to the bedroom. I wasn’t close to escaping at all but I could do it again. The house was packed this was a dumb idea. The security would be tighter now.I snatched my arm from his grip. He raised his hand but I ducked out of the way and landed on the bed before his hand could connect with my face.“Can you chain her up and get on to other things?

    Ezra POVMy fist connected with his jaw again. This would go a lot better if he just confessed to cursing my brother and what the fuck he wanted from me.“Fuck you!” Bowen spat.“This could be over quickly if you tell me what I want.”He spat blood on the dungeon floor. His henchmen were in the other cells. They were either oblivious or really good at hiding the truth. Either way, they were getting beaten up.“You’re barking at the wrong tree, mutt.”“Ohh, that’s not a nice word.” I rammed my fist into his jaw again.Roman stood in the corner of the room and groaned.“Talk Bowen. It’s late and we’re tired,” Roman said.“Yeah, I have a mate I need to get to.”“That stupid bitch,” Bowen barked.My wolf jumped to the edge of my skin and flashed in my eyes.He was chained to the chair. I dug my claws into his flesh, sinking my venom into his body. He cried out and cursed.“What did you say about my mate?”He panted heavily. “Enough.”“Fine. We’re all tired. Why Hunter?”“Why not?” Bowen l

I wondered if hurting herself was worth it.“I just protect what’s mine.”I tried to march past her but she shoved me backwards.“Stand aside!”She stalked forward, smirking. Her wolf flashed in her eyes.I backed up and summoned my wolf. Ezra wasn’t here to stop me I would rip this bitch to shreds. My wolf flashed in my eyes with a force so strong she nearly knocked me out.“Let’s make this quick.”Sophia tilted her head gladly.“What have you done this time Sophia? What is it now?” Derek’s disgruntled voice stopped me.I stepped back.Derek marched upstairs and stood beside Sophia but he caught me standing in front of them before he said anything else.“Well, fuck,” Derek said.“You know her?” I gasped.“Very well actually,” Sophia smirked.“Enough,” Derek spat.My heart hammered against my ribcage.
