[Serenity’s POV]

“Leave that to me.”

Uncle William’s voice is filled with so much certainty that I truly believe he can seek out the answers that we so desperately needed. It was one thing to only have Maverick shift from that rogue to who he was now, but with more appearing, we really needed to know where they were coming from and what exactly it was that they wanted.

‘Isn’t it obvious?’ Mahogany huffs, causing confusion to flash through me.

‘What do you mean?’

Although I had an idea, I was certain that I was just being paranoid, but the chances were pretty coincidental.

‘Your blood.’ Mahogany responds, confirming my biggest fear.

‘We don’t know for certain.’

‘Don’t say I didn’t warn you.’ She huffs before slinking away.

“Serenity,” Uncle William calls, snapping me out of my head. “I think it’s best that you and Maverick head back for the evening.” He continues from his place on the ground, where he still cradles the woman he called Elise.

“What about these three?” I ask, letting my

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   A Never-ending Cycle

    [Serenity’s POV]I’m drifting. My body is light and weighs almost nothing. I feel like I’m floating in a warm darkness that is slowly disrupted by a light that grows brighter by the minute until it is almost blinding.“What?” I hiss, blocking my eyes from the bright light. “What is…”“Serenity.”The voice is soft and comforting, and I feel like I’ve heard it somewhere before. I’m not quite sure where it was, maybe in a distant memory or even a dream, but I’m certain that I know it.“Sweetheart, you have to stop them.” It continues when I don’t speak. “Otherwise, I fear that our race will soon be ending.”“Who are you?” I ask, blinking in an attempt to be able to see the one speaking. “Why do you know these things?”As I speak, the light in front of me begins to fade; slowly but surely, I can soon see the one speaking, and she looks almost like my mother, but completely different.“Grandma?” I whisper, remembering the stories I’ve heard of her from my mother. They were few, but enough

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Take The Lead

    [William’s POV]“That’s enough! We can discuss all of this later. For now, we need to get moving. Serenity is waiting for us to save her, and if you want to stay and talk, I’ll go without you!”Maverick’s voice rings out into the night as I take Denali in. Fuck, she looks rough, and I was certain if Rosco was in his right mind, he would be ripping Jose into a million pieces, but since he wasn’t here, wasn’t that honor left to me?It would be, but Maverick was right; we didn’t have time to be standing around here. We needed to go to where Serenity was. Although, I was certain that Ellie and Ezekial wouldn’t make it easy.Now it makes sense. I think, remembering the wolves who attacked me on the road on my way back here. They were set all around the backgrounds to make sure that no one got in and no one got out, but they messed with the wrong fucking one. And I guess I needed to thank them for doing that since it made me call on my elites.Fate is on my side. I think, feeling a wave of

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Save Her

    [Maverick’s POV]I watch silently as the two sisters exchange words while everything in me screams to get moving. I know that there is a chance that they may never see each other again, and because of that, they should say what they want, but every moment Serenity wasn’t with me was torture. However, even then I don’t say anything, nor do I attempt to move.I have to hold comfort in knowing that they won’t kill Serenity. Since it was her blood that Ellie and Ezekial were after, I knew that she wouldn’t be killed, but that didn’t mean that she wouldn’t be tortured.Please. I whisper silently, my prayer going out into the darkness around me. Please be safe.As I speak, I find myself searching for Serenity even though I know deep down that I won’t be able to connect with her. There was no way that Ellie would allow something like that since it would mean that it would be easier to find her, but even then I search.Serenity. I whisper, my heart squeezing painfully. Where are you?Closing

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Join The Pack

    [Elise’s POV]I stare at Jose, wondering what exactly it was that he was trying to say. It was like a foreign language to me.Mindlink? What was that?“Let me explain.” He says when I give him a questioning look. “Mindlink is how wolves communicate with one another from long distances.”Frowning, I try to process what he’s telling me. Of course, it sounds absolutely ridiculous, but given the circumstances, I was willing to believe that there actually was such a thing. But how did you go about doing it? What was the trick?“Okay,” I say slowly, deciding that it was better to just be told than try to make sense of it. “And how exactly will we be able to do it?”For a moment, he doesn’t speak. Instead, he exchanges a glance with Denali and Maverick, who watch on silently.“She already has a pack.” Denali says quietly, giving me a look. “Even if they abandoned her.”“Then she doesn’t need that pack.” Maverick huffs. “I say that she has full reason to swear her loyalty to Jose in this situ

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Our Part

    [Maverick’s POV]Pain shoots through me as smoke threatens to suffocate me. There’s fire all around me and debris from the explosion that took place. A beam lies across me, holding me in place as I fight to break free. And as I search the area, I don’t see anybody who is capable of helping.Shit. I think, drawing on all the strength I have. What the hell even happened?Last I remembered I was fighting two of Ezekial’s wolves, and then there was a loud boom and then blackness. From what I could see, I was certain that a bomb had been planted and it went off during the fighting.But why?Wasn’t the one who set it off aware that their own was still in the building? Did that mean that they didn’t give a shit who was taken out by it?Or…Panic begins to flare up in me as I continue to fight the beam on top of me, struggling with all my might to budge even an inch, and once I do that, I wriggle some more.“Get off me.” I hiss, clawing at the floor for leverage. “Get the hell off of me.”Wit

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Multiple Steps Ahead

    [Denali’s POV]Pain shoots through me, threatening to make me collapse. With it is the coppery taste of blood in my mouth and an intense ringing in my ears, but even then, I still hold on.I can’t collapse yet. I think, keeping my gaze fixed on the boy holding Serenity. I can’t give in, not yet.“Drop her,” I repeat, letting more of my power explode from me. “NOW!”For a moment, the boy hesitates, and I know that he is fighting my command with all that he has, but when he finally drops Serenity and turns on Ellie, I know that he isn’t able to do so.“Mom!” Serenity gasps, scrambling up. “You can’t…”She doesn’t finish her words as her eyes widen, and then her hands come up to her throat like she is trying to remove something.“Cute trick.” Ellie giggles as Forrest collapses against the ground. “But, it won’t work here.”“Mom,” Serenity whispers, her face turning red. “You’ve got to go.”“Not without you,” I tell her. “Even if I die here, I will save you.”“How cute,” Ellie laughs. “I
