The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 9: A quiet walk home
Tyler looks at her as they walk."You'd make a good Luna," he tells her. "I don't know about that," she tells him."I do. You're smart. You care about your pack. You are kind.""A good Luna wouldn't run from-""A good Luna gets everyone to safety and is the last line of defense for those that are more vulnerable.""Doesn't matter, though. I'm sure when you find your mate., You'll have the best Luna.""You never know. It could be you. And a lot of alphas choose a mate. One they know will be a strong Luna."She looks at him and can tell he is absolutely serious. "Tyler…""Just…you know, think about it.""You would be a great Luna," Nova tells her. "But our mate will love us. It is worth the wait.""You don't think it could be him?" "You will always have your friends. A bond is a bond, mate or not. Forged in time or by the goddess, it is still a gift." "I hope you're right.""Anyone that cannot see the value in those bonds is not worth keeping. Respect is for more than just the Alpha
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 10: Changes
Over the next few weeks, Lia kept catching an amazing scent, but when she did, it was usually fading, and she could never find the source. Nova was getting frustrated. She knew it was their mate. Lia kept this between them. The thought of her conversation with Tyler was ever-present in her mind. It was disappointing knowing that this meant there was no chance Tyler was their mate. He wasn’t 18 yet. The scent couldn’t be his. She was even more crestfallen when Tyler’s stay came to an end. He had to return home to his pack and his future duties."You'll have to come to visit me soon," Tyler says, trying to hide the disappointment of leaving people he had grown to care about. A car waits behind him."Invite us to your birthday," Jael says. "Our alpha would be foolish not to let us go.""He would be." Tyler looks at an alpha's 18th is a big deal.""Only second to his alpha ceremony," Lia states."And his mating ceremony," he says, his eyes never leaving Lia's. She looks away. She hadn’t t
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 11: On the topic of Mates
Nova is equally confused but confirms it. "He is our mate. Say something." "George," she says. "Come with me." He grabs her arm and starts pulling her towards the pack house. She barely has time to close the door behind her. "I have to get to training. Roger is going to be mad if I don't -" she protests."He'll get over it," George says. As he pushes through the pack house door, pulling her behind him.“I already missed school today. I can’t miss training,” she tells him. “It’s just one session,” George tells her. Unaware that her voice had caught the attention of her godfather. James dropped what he was doing and was in the hallway in seconds. His wolf was angered by what he was seeing. "What is going on here?" James demands. He is beside Lia in an instant. "Let her go, George."George growls. But James is not about to let anything happen to his goddaughter. He would fight his friend’s son if he needed to. "I said let her go," James repeated in a more authoritative tone, steppi
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 12: Confusion and Concern
Roger is concerned when Lia arrives late to training. She looks upset, and he does not like it. "What's wrong?" He asks. "You are never late to training."He has already sent the rest of them off on their warm-up run. "I know…you won't believe what just happened." She goes on to tell him what happened with George and how James and Gunnar stepped in. Roger is less than happy about the whole thing. "It just doesn't make sense to me, or Nova. Like, Nova agrees, he's our mate, but…I don't even know him, and his sister hates me. James seemed unsettled by it.""Tell that beta kid you barely know him and that you want to go slow. As James said, if he can't accept that, then let us know. He doesn't get to force you into anything just because you are mates.""Thanks, Roger." She hugs him."You know we will always be here to help. Cam, James, all of us," Roger assures her. "Now, why don't you catch up to the others and see how
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 13: Fated Mates
*mild adult content in this chapter*They sit at the small table in the living area of the beta family section. Lia begins to eat. "It's Dahlia, right?" George asks. "Briar's your sister." Lia stops. Fork halfway to her mouth. He wasn't even sure what her name was. She nods. "Most people call me Lia," she tells him."Okay, Lia," he says. "And you live with your brother. He's a Warrior, right?""Yeah, Nash.""And your parents are dead."Lia sets her fork down. She is quickly losing her appetite. This is not going anywhere near as well as she was told finding her mate would be. She nods. "Right," George says.“But Delta James is my godfather. Between him, Roger, and Cameron, they raised me until Nash was old enough to do it. They’re my family, really.”“Hmm, okay.” It is quiet as they finish eating. He reaches over and pulls her chair closer to him, and starts touching her arm. Her skin tingles when he touches her, but it doesn't really make her feel much better."Mate," his eyes
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 14: Nova and Axel
At the edge of the woods, Lia ducks behind a tree. She carefully takes her bracelet off and tucks it in her pocket. Then she quickly removes her clothes and shifts before anyone could possibly see her. Nova was nowhere near the largest wolf in the pack. She was more lean and agile than most, but her white coat gave her an almost glow during a full moon. George quickly shifted. Axel was a large grey wolf. Much larger than Nova was. He seemed to be made of pure muscle. Axel nipped at the slightly darker tips of her ears and tail. Nova returned the gesture before taking off in a full sprint into the woods. Once she put enough distance between them to make him actually work for it, she slowed to a more acceptable pace. “That’s a dangerous game, Nova,” Lia caution her. “He wants a game, I gave him one,” Nova counters. “And we’ve already pushed their limits by asking for what we did,” Lia reminds her. A loud howl came from the woods. A mate’s call. Nova answers but keeps h
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 15: Caretakers and Guardians
“Dahlia…” Nash starts. “I know Nash. I’m sorry,” Lia says.“Sorry? You’re sorry?” Nash runs a hand through his hair and tries to hold back the growl his wolf wants to make. “Dahlia. I got home, and you weren’t there. Joan said you weren’t there. I text Roger. Next thing I know, Roger is here. He is here and pissed. James was blowing up my phone, and I’m being told that George is your mate and everyone is worried about you. Then I hear howling. Everyone does. And yeah, I know that was Nova. If you don’t think I’ve memorized every little thing about both of you, then I-” Nash sighs. “Soren wanted out. He was so close to busting out and going after you. And I almost caved after the sun went down. I waited, but I was ready to let him. Then you text me. I’ve never felt so-”She rushes over and hugs him. “I’m sorry, Nash. I’m sorry, Soren. I didn’t mean to. I’ll tell you everything tomorrow. But I will tell you that George agreed to let me finish school and training before ma
The Alpha Exchange: Fate of the Warrior's Daughter Chapter 16: The Gamma & The Delta
She knocked on the Delta office door before peeking in. “Come on in, Dahlia,” Gamma Beckett Harwell says to her. He waves her in from where he was leaning against the desk, looking at James’ computer screen. “We were just finishing up, Petal,” James assures her. “Then we can get dinner.” “Sure,” she tries not to blush as she drops down into one of the chairs in front of the desk. He hasn’t used that nickname in years. It was one that her dad gave her, and it had stuck. Briar had been their dad’s little flower, and Dahlia was his little petal. James, and by extension Gunnar, had picked it up along the way. She had insisted she was too old for such a childish nickname years ago. But honestly, she missed it. “Do what you need to, sirs.”Beckett chuckles. “You weren’t kidding, James. She is so much like Daphne it is surreal.”Lia stares at him. Most people didn’t openly talk about her parents much anymore, especially around her. To hear her mother’s name mentioned so casually felt stra
