The Alpha’s Awakening Fifty Nine.
Ryan’s POVElijah's Beta wonders in, a smug smile on his face as he checks that Elida and I are still here. Thankfully they had put us in separate dungeon cells or I would have killed her with my own bare hands. Listening to her cackle was bad enough.“You will both be pleased to hear that Aria is alive!” He is practically beaming ear to ear as he makes his announcement.“Can I see her?” I hadn’t seen her since the hospital when Elijah’s men had escorted me out. In fact I hadn't seen anyone other than this guy. “No!”“She’s not here anyway.” Elida mutters from her cell next to mine.Simon’s expression changes immediately, his head snapping in her direction. He takes a step sideways to look at her properly, just slightly out of my line of sight.“What is that supposed to mean?” The Beta growls at her but she just laughs back.“We all know saintly Alpha Elijah will have made a new deal with my father. She wouldn’t have survived my poison otherwise. Only dear daddy could have saved her.
The Alpha’s Awakening Sixty.
Alpha Elijah's POVThere, I had finally admitted it to someone other than Simon. I had made a Blood Oath just like Ryan. The only difference is that I had made it to a Fae King. Oddly he didn't seem overly concerned. When I had first told Simon, Simon had hit the roof. Maybe Ryan was so calm because he knew he had the upper hand.I also couldn’t believe that this was likely my only option of getting Aria out. To work with her other mate. The man I despised most.“So you are telling me that not only did you make a Blood Oath to the King of Fae but you have left Aria with one of them that will keep an eye on her!”“I had too Ryan. Chepi isn’t anything like Elida. Chepi wants out of the Fae world. She also knows about Aria and didn’t go running to her father.”He glares at me with those amber eyes. I don’t know if he was trying to shift or if he wanted to kill me.“I know we have had our differences but you have to agree, you want the same thing as me!”His jaw clenched as he shakes his

Aria’s POVI had been stuck in my bedroom for a solid two days. I was growing bored of the same four walls. There wasn’t even anything exciting to look at out the window. At least Chepi offered some company.My wounds were still a horrible angry red but thankfully Chepi had brought me some makeup to help cover them. She kept insisting that I couldn’t leave the room until they were covered or I would be asked more questions which would only attract Alwin's attention.She sits opposite me, gently patting my face with a sponge. Her lips curling up in disgust as she presses more and more makeup against my face.“Crap, it’s bleeding again!”The face wound was the one that kept leaking. It would stop for a few hours and then start again. I had woken to a blood soaked pillow this morning. Thankfully Chepi had been really good at getting rid of the bedding and bringing in fresh sheets.“When can I leave my room?”“When we figure out how to hide your wounds better.”She wasn’t angry, if anythi

Aria’s POV“You can’t do this here!” Chepi yells at me as I keep my eyes trained on Kyle“Your wolf… it’s…” Kyle mutters to me as I growl at him.He had abandoned me when I had needed him most, he didn’t even try to help me. He left me to die.Chepi stands with her hands up in the air but I had no problem with her, all my anger was directed at my so-called brother.Kyle drops his head “I didn’t know.” But I couldn’t answer him, I couldn’t even mind link him.“Aria please, they will kill you if they find you like this.” Chepi tries to reason with me but right now all I wanted was to see Kyle’s head detached from his body. I was the girl who always forgave but not anymore. I was done with all the liars in my life.“Let them find her. She shouldn't be here anyway!” Kyle mutters.It’s Chepi that turns and slams him into a wall. “You would give up on her so easily?” Her mouth was close to his ear as she held him off the ground with a single hand.I’m also surprised how quickly Chepi had c

Ryan’s POV“I’m sorry, but you are talking shit. A wolf mated to a Fae? That just wouldn’t happen.”Elijah raises an eyebrow at me, a smirk forming on his face.“What about Aria?”“What about her?”“Well you are a Hybrid that is mated to her. I am a wolf that is also mated to her. She is the first known wolf to have two mates.”“But we already know why. Her wolf is mated to you. Her vampire side is mated to me.”“Maybe but what if things are changing. What if the reason she is mated to both of us is because you broke your oath? Or what if the Moon Goddess feels like spicing things up a bit.”“Okay. Let’s say that you are right. That means Aria has a good chance of bumping into her brother. The one that abandoned her when she was with me. The one who hasn’t even made an attempt to find her. Even Seren came back to you. What do you think Aria will do when she runs into him?”It was a rhetorical question. I already knew what she would do. She had been waiting so long for him. She had tal
The Alpha’s Awakening Sixty Four.
Alpha Elijah’s POVI didn’t really want to leave Ryan alone but there were more pressing matters. I needed to see if Kyle really was in the Fae world or if we had jumped to conclusions.The main hall was filled with dancers and the melodic charm of Fae music but it didn’t take my attention away from the smell, it was getting worse. I had scented it last time I was here but it seemed like the Fae were oblivious to it and I had decided to keep my mouth shut. Today though, it seemed extra pungent, but I had no idea what it was.Casting my eyes across the room, I couldn’t spot her anywhere. Aria would have been easy to see, the majority of the Fae had some shade of blonde hair whilst hers was dark. She wasn’t here and I let out the breath I had been holding, at least she wasn’t taking part in their weird rituals.Heading out to the stairs, I run into Chepi. Her eyes are wide and they looked tearful. Not something I was used to seeing in Fae.“Is Aria upstairs in her room?”She shakes her
The Alpha’s Awakening Sixty Five.
Aria’s POV“I don’t understand. Where are we going?” “You will see soon my dear.”My arm was linked with Alwins', his hand pressed against mine. When I went up to see him, I was expecting the worst. Kyle had clearly run straight to him but Alwin had been sat on a plush gold sofa waiting for me with that irritatingly beautiful smile of his.“I want you to come on an errand with me!” He had continued to smile at me, no mention of Kyle, yet that rotten flesh smell, it was overwhelmingly powerful in his room.I repeat my question; not only was his hand resting on mine but I had been blindfolded. He had told me that it was a surprise. I didn’t really like surprises, it felt like a trick and I knew I had to keep my guard up. Keep myself prepared for whatever he was planning.I knew we were outside, the cold air dancing across my skin as we walked. The music that was once loud had fallen quiet“I see your wounds have not fully healed.” His words were barely a whisper and I feel the hairs on
The Alpha’s Awakening Sixty Six.
Ryan’s POVFuck! Fuck! Fuck!Her father, he had known about this and Alwin had known about Aria all along. Her father had done everything he could to keep her safe, including making me vow to protect her. Everything was just so fucked up, I wish Aria’s father had just told me the truth. All the bits with Seren wouldn't have happened. I most likely wouldn't have killed her parents. We could have been happy! I was so fucking stupid!“This has always been the plan!” I shake my head at Simon “I had been so caught up in this plan of making Aria mine that I failed her entirely. I missed the most important thing.”“I take it you’ve come up with something then?” He takes his feet off the desk and folds his arms across his chest.“Alwin has had this in place for years, it’s just been a huge benefit to him that Aria is mated to Elijah as well as me. It made it easier to trap her.”“Elijah will find her!”“What if he doesn’t, what if Alwins plan involves taking us down completely? Her wolf is po

“You won’t, you will never do it!” Athena screams as I drag her across the ground. “Shut your fucking mouth.” I yell over her whimperings.“Then just kill me. I can't bare to see you fuck us over.”“No Athena. You will see what happens. You will watch as I take over the entire world and you will hear all of it.”“Please, just let me die.”“No fucking chance.” I threw her body into the dungeon where Aria had been locked away. Athena’s body hits the stone floor as she rolls across the ground.“Please, Atlas, please just let me…”“Alpha Atlas.” I mutter. She was a traitor, she wasn’t anything other than that.“Alpha Atlas, please just let me die.” She continues to beg.“No chance.”I slam the door of the dungeons shut. Slipping the key into the lock. She would never get to see any of the pack again. All she would ever get is the information of how the world was changing. How I was becoming the King that no one could stop. How I would be unstoppable,I walk down to the gates, waiting for
The Alpha’s Awakening Fifty Two.
Atlas’s POVI couldn’t believe what I was hearing. How could Simon be mated to Athena? It didn’t seem possible. After all, he was gay. He had been married to a man.A man that he met at my ball! Ryan mutters. He sounded almost annoyed. “I can’t help it, Simon. The Moon Goddess obviously paired us together for a reason. It's not my fault.""There could have been a chance, but I can't protect you now!""You're not even going to try?"“Shut up. Just shut up you stupid woman!” Simon growls at her, obviously having enough of her shit.“I’m sorry that I am not what you wanted. Let me guess, you wanted someone with a dick!” Athena snaps back. "Well, I'm sorry about that, so suck it up!"“Whatever is going to happen between us doesn’t matter if Atlas kills you.”The sentence was perfect timing. Stepping into the small room. I see Athena sitting on the edge of a sofa. Her face in her hands. Her chocolate brown hair draped down over her. Simon had his back to me. His hands on his hips. A red t
The Alpha’s Awakening Fifty One.
Atlas’s POVSimon bursts into the room. I hadn’t even realised he had followed me. He stops in front of the empty crib. “Where is he, Atlas?” I couldn’t speak. I was in shock. How had I not felt it? How had I not known that he was in trouble?“ATLAS? Where the hell is he?”“She has him. She has taken my son.” I growl“FIND ATHENA!” I yell through a link to every single wolf and Lycan in the pack. “DO NOT LET HER OUT OF YOUR SIGHT. SHE HAS MY SON!”“I can help.” Simon offers.“How? How can someone like you help.”“He is okay. Hunter is okay. That’s why you couldn’t sense him being taken. His Aunty has him. If he feels danger. You will know. You will feel it”“How can you be certain? He is the first Lycan child.”“Because you feel it when he cries. You feel it in your heart when he is upset. Whatever Athena has done. She is keeping him safe and he trusts her. The question is, what does she want in return.”“I know what she wants. She wants Bethany dead.”“Me?” A small voice cries behin
The Alpha’s Awakening Fifty.
Atlas’s POVAesha drops her head, keeping herself from looking at me. I wasn’t mad at her. I already had my suspicions. The way Athena looked at Bethany. The spite in her words. I had never known someone so jealous over a child.“Thank you, Aesha.”“You’re not mad at me?”“I’m not mad with you, no! You did the right thing.” I mull over her words. Frustrated that I couldn't get a break.“I told you Aesha. It was better to tell him than not.” Simon mumbles and nods at her, giving her a smile. I wondered how long this had been bugging her. Not once had we been alone today for her to tell me. Athena was always there, hovering or Bethany was at my side. Had Athena known Aesha had overheard her?“Did she know, Aesha? Did she know that you were listening in?”“I don’t… I don’t think so.”That sounds like a yes. If Athena had picked up her scent, then it would be obvious. It’s why Athena probably hovered at the funeral.“Things are getting more and more fucked up!” Simon mutters“Why are you
The Alpha’s Awakening Forty Nine.
Atlas’s POVGetting Aria ready for her funeral hit me hard. It made me realise just how much I missed her. She had put me through my paces, testing my patience but at the end of the day, she was mine.I'm not ready.'I know, but it is time.'Just like Bethany had said, Aria looked as though she was sleeping. Her fresh clothes hid her fatal wound. Aesha was busy putting some sort of make up on Aria, giving her a bit of colour. She keeps her mouth shut, knowing that it was best not to speak.It had been a long time since I had sent someone back to the Moon Goddess and I wasn’t ready for this. I reach out to touch her cold skin. Hoping that by some miracle, she would wake up. That this was all just some nightmare.“Everyone’s ready.” Athena mutters. I see how she glances at Bethany, but she doesn’t say anything and Bethany is oblivious to it.I nod and she leaves, taking Aesha with her. Bethany remains behind with me. She had stayed with me ever since we went to the orphanage earlier. Sh
The Alpha’s Awakening Forty Eight.
Atlas’s POVOver the course of the next few days, it was almost impossible to get anymore information out of Bethany. The moment she felt threatened, she would clam up. Hiding herself away, never leaving the house and refusing to speak to anyone. The only thing that would coax her out of her hiding spot was hot food. Today, it seemed like the smell of food wasn’t even working. I would have to go and find her when I was done.“Some great idea of yours.” I mutter as Aesha sits at the breakfast table with Athena and I.Athena cocks an eyebrow at me. She didn’t have a clue what I was talking about, but her gaze hit me hard. I had allowed Athena and Aesha to stay in the packhouse. In some ways it helped me feel close to Aria. Yet, it always seemed like they were watching my every move.“Is this about the funeral, Atlas? Because you can’t keep putting it off forever. Aria isn’t coming back.” I heard the undertone in her voice. She was trying to be assertive but she was grieving like the res
The Alpha’s Awakening Forty Seven.
Atlas’s POVThe small girl remains asleep for hours. Whether it was shock or tiredness that was causing her to sleep so heavily, I couldn’t tell. Her blonde hair was dirty. There were blood stains around her finger nails. Her blood splattered clothes were too small for her, torn in places too. Her feet were bare and didn’t look like they had been cleaned in days, maybe weeks.Hunter stirs in my arms, making little noises and I watch as the girl's face screws up. Like my son's sounds were causing her some distress. Calling for Aesha, she comes into my office and takes Hunter from me, casting a glance over the young girl.“Still not woken?” She asks and I shake my head.“I think she might have needed it.”“Sleep? She was with humans, surely they were looking after her, she is just a kid. At least you haven't killed her. Does that mean you are going ahead with what I suggested?"I don't respond. But I had investigated the girls feet. The hardened skin, the old scars, the clothes that wer
The Alpha’s Awakening Forty Six.
Atlas’s POVEveryone stayed out of my way except for one. He never spoke but it wasn’t like I could get rid of him either. His constant looks of disapproval and tutting were starting to grind on me.‘Ryan, if you don’t start keeping your disapproving looks to yourself, I will take that concoction that I made for Aria and block you altogether.’You’re losing it!‘Fuck off!’You need to talk about her!‘Will you shut the fuck up!’No. I loved her too and now, now you are just shutting down. Do you even care how I feel!‘You didn't love her, not like I did.’ There, I had said it. The overwhelming ache of my heart was almost too much. ‘But you got what you wanted, didn’t you, Ryan?’He is quiet again, because he knew exactly what I was referring to. The day he attacked her family. The plan he had made with Aria's sister, Seren. He had got what he wanted all along. A child with the woman he was mated too.It’s not like that. I made a mistake. He mutters at me, but I could feel that I had h

Atlas’s POVHuman after human, I tear them apart. Promising myself that I would get my revenge for what happened to my mate.The scent of blood swirled in the air as the humans screamed begging for their lives. They should not have come to war if they were not prepared to dieYou have to stop. This isn’t going to bring her back! Ryan pleads with me.But this is what they came for. They came for us and I had no intention of letting them leave.Humans tried to run, trying to escape their deaths and yet the Lycans and wolves seemed to have a whole new reason to kill. They wanted revenge for Aria’s death as much as I did.As the remnants of the humans laid scattered across the grounds, I instructed my men to check that no one was hiding amongst them. The last thing I needed was a human that could escape to tell the tale.Shifting back to my human form, I go back to Aria’s lifeless body. Pain exploded through my chest all over again as I held her close. She had been taken away from me, fr
