Summer POV“You’ve been looking at the ring every second is there something wrong with it?” Ezra asked.He was right I hadn’t stopped looking at it. It was gorgeous last night but when the sun came up and seeped into our room it was breath-taking! The diamond resembled a misty forest with eerie branches reaching out of the mist.It was the nicest thing I’d ever gotten and I couldn’t believe it was mine. When did he get it? I couldn’t believe he had such nice taste.“Are you kidding? It’s beautiful. Who helped you pick it out? Be honest.”He grinned. “I picked it on my own. I wanted something as unique as the woman I’m going to marry.”Heat rushed to my cheeks. “You have wonderful taste. Are we really getting married in two weeks?”Ezra sat and stretched out his arms. “I want to make it official as soon as possible. I would have married you last night but our ceremony has to be witnessed by everyone.”I bit my bottom lip. That was nerve-wracking. Alpha’s mating ceremonies were bigger d

Summer POV“A heads up would be nice next time, Ezra,” I grumbled when we got to the parking lot.He grinned. “You’re a warrior you’re always prepared for anything.”“I nearly peep my pants!”“It’s the smallest things that terrify us.”“What scared you?” I tilted my head to the side.“Proposing to you.”I blushed.I didn’t like the tone of Ezra’s council despite my mate’s stance it was like four against two. However, I wouldn’t want to cross Ezra if I was them.“Summer!” Estelle ran up to me. “I can’t believe this.”“Neither can I, Estelle. We only got engaged yesterday.”She glanced at my right hand and her eyes went wide. “I didn’t see that on stage. You did look like a wet puppy abandoned in the rain.”Ezra chuckled and I glared at him.“Blame him,” I swatted his arm.“I was expecting to kick someone’s ass this was a pleasant surprise,” she smiled genuinely.“There’s going to be plenty of time to kick some ass. Since you and your sister work well together why don’t you join us for

Summer POVRachel was still shaken but she managed to shift and stand with Mom and me. Our random shifts caught the attention of the people in the Deli. Thank goodness this was a shifter town because stuff like this wouldn’t go down well with humans.“Hardly a fair fight, Summer,” Dimitri laughed, he didn’t bother to shift.“Summer, this isn’t the place for a fight, we have to get him away from the Pack,” Mom said through our mind link.“You’re right.”I opened my mind link to Ezra. It was unique to us so no one could hear it apart from us, thank goodness.“Dimitri’s in the Pack. We’re going to drive him away.”While Rachel and Mom turned around and ran onto the road I jumped on Dimitri and dug my claws into his chest to give him even more reason to chase me.“Bitch!”I may have overdone it.Dimitri shifte

Summer POV“Where are you going, Summer?” Estelle cried.“To kill him!” I shouted.“Or he’s going to kill you! Are you insane?” Rachel barked.“He just killed my Mom, and who knows, maybe even Viktor. Gosh, Ezra.” Panic settled in my gut.“If the Alpha was dead, we would all feel it,” Rachel said.The death of an Alpha was an incredible event, and all nature connected to him would feel it.“I’m not going to stand here and wait for something else to happen,” I said.“Well, you’re the Luna, so what do we do?” Estelle mumbled and folded her arms.Rachel lifted a shoulder and rolled her eyes.“Dimitri can transfer the curse to anyone, so who knows how many more cursed wolves are out there. We need to build a fire. A huge one.”“There’s a lawn mower in the shed out back we can get the gas from there,” Rachel said.They walked towards the kitchen back door while I marched out the front door. The Pack House had fallen. This was the Pack's last stronghold, and if it fell it would dent Ezra’s

Summer POVI made a small pit stop to our room and slipped into Ezra’s shirt. He scooped me into his arms the second he set foot on the property. His wolves came from all angles of the estate.“Hey, are you okay? Are you hurt?”“You’re the one bleeding, babe.”“I’m fine. What the hell? Why did you make me sound the retreat call? Everyone’s confused and pissed as hell. We’ve been fighting since the sun went down.”“I know, but hear me out—” He paused and stared over my shoulder. He shoved me behind me so hard I tripped and fell on the couch.“Hunter!” Ezra growled.“Whoa, I can explain!” Hunter shouted.Ezra tackled his brother, they landed on the coffee table, glass shattered everywhere.“No, guys stop it!”Estelle and Rachel were just as confused as I was. Oliver rushed in, just as badly beaten up as my mate.“Fuck, guys,” he groaned, attempting to yank Ezra off Hunter but he got an elbow to his nose for his troubles. “Fuck!”“Ezra, Hunter wore the Solaris Crown!” I screamed.The roo

Summer POV“You should go out there, you know,” I whispered into Ezra’s arm.He hissed my forehead. “I know.”“What’s stopping you?”He chuckled into my hair. “I like being in your warmth.”“I think they always had confidence you would defeat Dimitri,” I said.“I didn’t. You and Hunter did.”“Come on, I did not fight against him all night.”He ran a hand down my arm. “I wouldn’t have done it without you, Summer. There are no words to thank you.”“Don’t downplay your role in this Ezra. Come on, Alpha, you have a Pack that’s dying to hear from you.”The corner of his lips raised, and he smiled at the ground sheepishly. “I want to spend the night in my mate’s arms.”I closed the gap between us and kissed him. “You better hurry then.”Ezra changed into black pants and a white t-shirt. I slipped into my pyjamas and followed behind him. The Pack gathered in the front yard, all in their robes or pyjamas, most of them rattled by their peaceful Pack being attacked. I saw the anxiety on their f

Summer POV“You’ve had a problem with my wife since you met her, admit it,” Dad grumbled.“Yes, I admit it. I hate the fact you made me sleep in the basement when there was a perfectly good room upstairs without rats!”“We’ll talk about that later,” Dad said, shoving the front door open.“Oh, honey you’re back early,” Marcella said.“Were you doing something?” I accused.She rolled her eyes. “And you brought this one.”“Summer’s not staying long,” Dad said. I swear I saw sweat on his brow. It wasn’t hot in the house by any chance.“Of course, she still has to clean out her room. I want to convert the basement into an in-house gym!” She clapped her hands.I rolled my eyes dramatically and made sure it lasted long enough for her to see it.“Yes, Summer should get her things,” Dad said.He wasn’t sounding like himself again. I should have come with backup but I was here now and I couldn’t back out.“What did you do to him, Marcella? Aside from lie!”Marcella placed a hand on her chest an

Summer POV“Don’t worry he’ll be fine. I didn’t realize my own strength but I removed whatever dark spell was rooted in him.”Ezra and Hunter with Estelle arrived ten minutes ago. They hauled Dad upstairs to his room. Rachel and her family cleared out before Ezra arrived. Good, I didn’t want to deal with them ever again.Dad hadn’t woken up though he was breathing easily.I nodded and rubbed my eyes, itching to spill tears.“There’s something else though,” Hunter rubbed the back of his head.“What?” Estelle asked before I could.“I…uh… look I didn’t know it would happen!”“Spit it out Hunter,” Ezra growled. Ezra placed his hand on my shoulder and massaged it.“I couldn’t heal him without taking something from him apparently it’s how my powers work. So I took his rank. He’s not an Alpha anymore.”“Oh fuck, Hunter,” Ezra exhaled.“It was either that or let him die. I’m sorry girls.”“Whatever,” Estelle mumbled.I glared at her. “He can’t be the Alpha General anymore because he’s not an

EpilogueEzra POVFOUR YEARS LATER“Draw them to the cliff!” I ordered.Alpha Jackson’s troops were surrounded, his Pack house had been ceased and his troublesome council had been slaughtered. He had no choice but to surrender but the stubborn Alpha refused.My wolves charged, sending the last troop of wolves to the edge of the Cafter Cliff, where they were forced to surrender or die. They were all going to jail for a series of crimes anyway.“Where’s your Alpha?” I demanded.They stared at each other with blank expressions. When I thought they would remain defiant they all shifted back into humans and I knew I had them. Finally, after twelve hours it was over.“We don’t know where he is,” the designated leader said, a man with a buzz cut and piercing over his right eye.“He’s a coward who left you to feel the heat of his crimes. Surrender now and the punishment won’t be so steep.”They glanced at each other for a couple of seconds. My offer wouldn’t last long. However, they got down

Summer POV“You cheated,” I told Ezra through the mind-link.“You sound like a sore loser, babe,” he replied.His smugness rattled me. I almost had him!“I want a rematch,” I demanded.“Never,” he said then cut off the mind-link.Oh, how dare he?I arrived at the mansion because that’s where Dad said he would be. He’d just wrapped up a meeting with the Alpha’s court. Now that I had a new title, I couldn’t be part of the Alpha’s court anymore. We needed to hunt for new members. Estelle would leave too because of the baby.I couldn’t wait to tell my sister the great news! Though, she might ask me for a raise. The perks of being a big sister.“Hey Daddy,” I said.He eyed me as if to say ‘Not in front of the Alpha’s court.’His reaction was warranted when Oliver laughed and the other guys snickered.“Hi, Luna Summer,” Brook said.“Luna,” Walker said. They would all have to be briefed about my new title. The change was exciting and daunting at the same time.“Daddy’s little girl,” Oliver t

Summer POVOne Week Later“Are you sure about this colour, Ezra?”“What’s wrong with red?”“Nothing, but red everywhere?”He wanted red booths, red lights for nights and red wallpaper. It’s too much. I had to fight him on the uniforms and draw the line at red wallpaper.“Okay, fine, maybe we can dial it back.”“Aside from your little obsession the bar’s going to be great,” I said, slipping under his arm.“Wait, do I still have a job?” I asked.Ezra snickered. “A few customers complained Summer,” he teased. “I’m afraid I can’t keep you.”“I wouldn’t want to work with your sleazy clientele anyway.”His hand travelled down my back and cupped my ass. “I don’t want my respectable clientele staring at your fine ass either.”He kissed my cheek and gave my ass another squeeze.The bar had been stripped of its old exterior. There was paint on the floor, paper on the counter, and all the booze had been taken down. The upstairs had been fixed and equipped with new tables, floors and wallpaper wh

Summer POVMy vision blurred. Somehow I landed on the ground. I think the sky was on fire. It was bright orange and dark blue. Where was I?“You went too far… Summer,” Clover said weakly.“I’m sorry.” My mouth was dry and my body weighed a truckload of bricks.“Burn it all, burn it to the ground,” the cold-hearted order sent a shiver down my spine.I recognised that voice.He towered over me. His eyes were bright and intense. I coughed and my body groaned. Ezra scooped me off the ground and held me to his chest.“Y-you’re okay,” I crocked.“Thanks to you, Summer.”I cracked a smile. “You’re the Alpha King.”He narrowed his eyes before he lifted his head. I felt another presence to my right.“Take her away,” Ezra ordered.“What? No,” I rasped.Ezra placed me in Walker’s arms. The beta held me securely. Ezra was the one who put me in Walker’s arms but he growled at the beta as if he’d done something wrong.Yeah, he’s back to his old self.“Trust me, mate. We’ll be together before the su

Summer POVThe sun hung heavy in the sky. I pleaded with it to stay up a little longer because I didn’t know what I would do when darkness came.Augustus had an office in the building too. I’d rather be in the dungeon with Ezra but Kingsley only just stopped looking for me. It was suspicious.Dad left hours ago to rally an army. It would take them forever to get here. Oliver stayed. For the first time since we arrived. He looked worried.“Here,” Preston said, offering me a glass of water.“Thanks,” I replied.Augustus blew smoke out of his nose before resting the cigarette on the table.“They had it all planned. We can’t get an army here on a whim. They’ll be ready.”I thought about Hunter countless times. He was an Alpha god, he should have some authority here. However, his powers came at a price. We learnt that when he healed my Dad he turned into a gamma.Oliver ran a hand down his face. “Roman said, to stay put. We can’t sit idly though. I feel useless.”“They’ll kill you on the s

Summer POV“Summer, go, if you won’t listen to me as your mate listen to me as your Alpha,” he ordered.I smirked and leaned close enough to bump his nose with mine. “You can’t make me.”“What? Yes, I can!”“No, your wolf is neutralized so you can’t force me.”He bowed his head. “I just want to protect you.”“Neither of us is going to win this game. We care about each other too much.”“There you are! Kingsley just banished your Father,” Gage said.I thought it was the guards returning from their paid break when I heard the door open. He adjusted his blue suit as he neared us.“You?” Ezra barked. “What are you doing here?” He rattled the metal bars keeping him locked up.Gage grinned and draped an arm around my shoulder. “Nice to see you again, buddy. You quit, calling me.”“Get your filthy hands off her!” Ezra growled. His eyes nearly flashed with his wolf. It was so fast it almost didn’t happen. It was like a bulb trying to flick on but failing.Gage noticed it too.“Summer and I hav

Summer POVThe grouchy but slightly good-looking Alpha smirked maliciously. He had the silver fox look going on. “I’ll be damned before that happened.”I crossed my arms over my chest. “Are you against women being Alpha?”“There are female Alphas but none that have sat in the Alpha’s council.”I rolled my eyes. “Well, Mister, if you ask me. The Alpha’s council is outdated anyway. Let Alpha Ezra go and your Packs won’t feel the effects once he’s out!”He brushed off my comments as if they were merely wind.“Ezra’s not going anywhere. Aside from taking three Packs illegally, he’s responsible for the deaths of three Alphas and entire councils and elders. That sort of behaviour is unwarranted! We can’t allow a tyrant to become Alpha King.”“You don’t have any proof!” I shouted.“Well, see about that. I suggest you leave or else I’ll lock you up.”“I’m not leaving until you tell me what you’re going to do to him.”“Relax, Summer, he’s an arrogant old wolf. He’s not going to help us,” Clove

I didn’t like the glint in his eyes and the smirk that spread on his face. I was tempted to take a step back but the last thing to show an Alpha was fear.He reached out and stroked the bump from when I head-butted Nolan. I was stunned by his openness.“You’ve been here less than an hour and you’ve already gotten into trouble, how amusing. But it matches your reputation. I’ve heard you’re a handful.”“Where did you hear that from?” I gasped.He took a step closer. So close I could smell Katrina’s expensive perfume on his trousers.“From Ollie and Vance. I’m sure you remember them.”My eyes turned to saucers. How could I forget the man who nearly kidnapped me? It felt like a lifetime ago. Ezra and I have been through so much since then. Ollie grabbed me as I left the bar at night. Ezra beat him. That night we also shared our first kiss.There was no time for me to blush.“How do you know them?” I demanded. “Do they work for you?”The tall man with broad shoulders wearing a dark blue su

Summer POV“I’m only coming out if Ezra leaves with me!”“You’re not the Luna here. You don’t have authority,” Nolan yelled.He snapped his fingers twice and pointed at me. the guard I bribed rolled his eyes.“Get her out. Use force if you must.”“Hey! Touch my wife and I’ll slaughter you all!”Fear descended on Nolan and his minion friends. Nolan swallowed and smoothed his shirt.“You’re behind bars and your wolf is asleep. There’s nothing you can do to anyone,” Nolan said, shakily.“I’m a patient man and I’ll remember you, Nolan! All of you.”Some of the minions cowered but Nolan maintained his shaky composure. The guard opened the cell and stared at me. Our partnership wasn’t over. I’d need him later so I left willingly.“I’ll see you later my love.”“The Alpha’s council will dictate that. As they will decide your fate! Your disrespect will be punished!”“We’ll see about that,” I challenged.“You disrespectful—“ he raised his hand to slap me.It happened so fast. Ezra yelled and ra
