The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 19: The Stanton Pass Pack
Lia gets out of the car and looks around. It's the middle of the night, and she can't see much other than the packhouse, and a few buildings. She has never been to this pack before.“Dahlia!” Her sister rushes over and hugs her. “You’ve gotten so tall. Riley, look at her!”“Hi Lia,” Riley says as he joins them. “Welcome to the Stanton Pass Pack. ”“Hi Riley,” she hugs him too. "Come on, let's get you home." Riley grabs her bags, and they head towards the pair's home. It is very late, so they show her to her room, and they all catch a few hours of sleep.Briar makes eggs and toast for breakfast the next morning, and after they eat, they give her a quick tour of the area and t

"Let's go for a run, like old times," Briar suggests. "When have I ever said no to that?" Lia grins."Probably never," Riley replies."Exactly," Lia says. At the same time her sister says, "Right!""You two go have fun, I'll get stuff for dinner and see you guys tonight."The afternoon is spent exploring the reserve. Both in and out of shifted forms. Nova enjoys the change of scenery while Lia does the one thing James asked her to do. Think about her relationship with George outside the mate bond. She tells her sister about everything. And Briar does her best to offer advice. Briar was the only sibling with a mate. So her perspective on the matter was important to Lia."The bond can be overwhelming in the beginning, I do remember that." Briar chuckles. "But I can see why Uncle James is so concerned. Your mate should love you and respect you, Lia. I'm not saying he has to worship the ground you walk on or put you up.on a pedestal. But he should repeat your autonomy and your wishes. R
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 21: Home Again
James had told her she had the day off from school and training since she came back a day early. "I still want this to work," she tells James when she returns. "I want Nova to be happy." "And what about you, Petal?" James studies her. He was looking for any hint of doubt or fear. "What about your happiness?""I could be happy too, but I won't know unless we really try. Briar said to trust my instincts, to trust Nova.""Dahlia…your father always meant that for your survival. Not your happiness. You have to follow your heart to be happy. I’m not saying I don’t trust your judgment, Petal," James starts. "Just…just be careful. I will only ever be a mind link away.""I know," she smiles at him. "You know I love you, Petal, right? You are my family in every way that matters." She nods. She knew he did. He didn't say it often now that she was older, but he still showed it at times like this. "I love you too, Uncle James."Spending so much time around her sister and away from her goddess-
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 22: Warrior's Wrath
The next few weeks the two of them tried to establish some kind of schedule. She had school and training, they would have dinner unless he was on patrol. She would spend time with Jael and Nix a couple times a week, much to Jael's annoyance. She had dinner with James every weekend, as well as spending time with Saige and her dads. She tried to still find time for her brother when she could. He would sometimes join her and James for dinner. But it was becoming difficult to juggle everyone's expectations. It only got worse when the invitation to Tyler's birthday got there. George was not happy about it. "YOU SERIOUSLY EXPECT ME TO BE OKAY WITH YOU GOING TO THAT ALPHA'S BIRTHDAY?! ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Lia winces as George shouts at her. "He's a friend, and I promised him I'd go before he left," she tries to keep her cool. She refuses to match his temper. One of them has to be the level-headed one. "Before we were even mates." "NOT

James throws open the door to Oliver's office with too much force, and it slams against the wall. "How dare you-" Oliver growls, but the delta slams his fist on the desk, causing the entire thing to rattle. James does not care what he has to say. "I told you last time that if your son laid a hand on my Dahlia again I would not be so kind as to restrain my wolf." James glares at the beta over the desk. Oliver seems to rise to the challenge. "At this moment, she is at Hank Lane's house crying with bruises on her arm. From. George." The delta seethes. His wolf scratched at the surface. "The only reason I am standing here right now instead of hunting George down and making him pay for what he has done is because you and I have been friends for years. But I am losing my patience with that boy of yours, my friend. And I am giving you one last chance, Oliver. Deal with your son before I do! I am going to the Lane house now. I expect George to have learned his lesson by the time

James is surprised to find Luna Mira already there comforting Dahlia. Word must have traveled fast while he was in Oliver's office. "Luna Mira," he greets. "James," she nods. "I was just telling your little Petal that she has every right to be upset. She has every right to cry." The Luna tone is filled with sadness. "But she is so strong and brave." Mira smiles at Lia. "Do not ever let anyone, man or wolf, even your mate, ever take that from you. The goddess, Selene, has not forsaken you, for you are still a child of my pack. One that has made us all so very proud." The Luna takes James' hand and puts Lia's in it. "Some families are what we make of them. The ones we choose to love. The goddess gives these bonds as much as she does the bond of a mate. And this is a bond given by Daphne and Linus. They trusted our delta to protect it. And looking at you n

Dahlia wakes up to shouting. It immediately has her on edge.“That’s Nash,” she says out loud to the quiet room. “James is still here,” Nova mentally adds.“Is that-” Lia starts but stops talking recognizes the other voices. She realizes what is happening. She jumps out of bed and rushes toward the sounds of her brother shouting. “Over my dead body!” Nash shouts as she nears the living room, her pace slowing so she can listen.“Now that a bit much,” Beta Oliver says. “Don’t you think?”“Considering the circumstances, you both are lucky you made it through the door with just him shouting,” James says. “This is his house, and he is protecting his sister.”“She’s my mate,” George growl.“Could have fooled me,” Nash snaps. “I’d be well within my right to snap your neck for what you did!”“I’d like to see you try,” George laughs. “You might be warrior, but I’m a beta.”“Enough! Both of you,” James commands, he glances deeper into the house. Gunnar could hear Lia moving around. The others
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 26: The Apology
George is waiting for her when she gets out of school. "You shouldn't be here," Jael glares at him."I came to apologize," George says. His hands are up to show he means no harm."Doesn't matter. You should-""It's fine, Jael," Lia says, much to her friend's dismay. George doesn't start talking right away. He looks at Jael."Oh, if you think I'm leaving after what you did last time, you can forget it because-""Fine, stay, see if I care," George grunts. He turns to Lia."I'm sorry," George says. "I was angry, and I overreacted. I know you and that alpha were close. And he had feelings for you. If you go there and he decides to do something. Well, he's an alpha. He's stronger and has the backing of his pack. And I wouldn't be there to protect you. To make sure they don't trick you or something.""You think they would risk the peace between both our packs over me?""Yes," he says without hesitation. "You're smart and pretty. Men have done worse for less." "So it's my safety you are w
