The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty.
Aria’s POVRunning as fast as I could. My body darts between the trees, trying to move as quickly as I could. I was fast, faster than the average wolf but it seemed that she was just as quick. Her hands grasping at me and pulling out tufts of my fur.She screeches at me as we race through the forest.“I will make sure you die this time!”Trying not to look back, I keep moving. Her long fingers seemed to be getting closer and closer to my skin each time. I dare not turn around. I can’t risk biting her again, not after what happened last time.The more I run, the more I realise that I am losing my bearings. Was I running towards the river or was I going in circles? The chase was confusing my mind and I was finding it hard to remember everything.“I will make your kind pay!”Her voice is ear splitting. How Ryan had ever managed to put up with her, I do not know.I just needed a minute, I just needed time to think, to get myself back on track.There was only one option that I could think
The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty One.
Ryan’s POV“You don’t want me?” Her pink lips part as she stares at me. Her green eyes wide with shock at my declaration.“I never said that Aria.”“Then what do you mean?” She mumbles, keeping her eyes on me.I was confused, I had done everything that would push her away. She should hate me and yet she was sat here staring at me with those beautiful eyes of hers. Unafraid!“Aria, you have two mates. A mate for each of your halves but you shouldn’t be with me. That’s why I am not fighting for you anymore.”Her brow dips into a frown, her eyes cast downwards."You still want me?""i will never stop loving you Aria, but you are better off with him."“Elijah can’t hear me!” Her mind was working hard to put the pieces together.“I know.”“Then why did you ask why I called to you?”“Because I wanted to know if you had chosen me, but you still called for him first, didn’t you!”“I….”“It’s fine Aria, but you should know, his mark is gone. Your neck is bare, like it was never there.”She ru

Aria’s POVThis is what they wore right? Females that just want to chill?I stare at myself in the mirror. The hotel was pretty run down, but it had the basics. A bed, running water and a door that locks.The blue dress barely came to my thighs, any slight bend in my hips would have me showing more than what I wanted. Scratch that, I was already showing more than I wanted. Messing around with my hair, I ignore the tugging at my heart. The tugging that told me that I was too far away from my mate.It had been growing the further I moved away from my old pack. For a while it stopped before starting again with more intensity. I had no idea if it was Ryan or Elijah or maybe even both.My head was all over the place, I didn’t know what I was feeling. I just knew I couldn’t be with the man who killed my parents, but I also couldn’t be with the man that I didn’t trust.Messing with my hair, I decide to leave it down, it had developed its own soft curls and I quite liked it.“I can do this,”
The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty Three.
Alpha Elijah’s POVThere was chaos in my pack. I don’t know when it happened, or if it was because I had taken my eye off the ball, but my pack. They were now calling me cursed. ‘The cursed Alpha’.They had waited for a long time for me to find my Luna. My pack had been thriving, but it all relied on me finding my mate. Finding and losing her was more than my pack could handle.“They are getting out of control,” Simon snaps at me.“What do you want me to do? I can’t change how they feel,” I watch out of my window at the groups of wolves that were forming. I could already tell what was happening. They were building up the courage to stand up against me, plotting my downfall.“You are about to lose your pack Elijah. Everything that we have worked hard to achieve. Just find her and bring her home.”“What don’t you understand? I cannot scent her anymore, I can’t link her. By making sure Alwin wasn’t able to kill her, I have been punished.”“Stop feeling sorry for yourself. You were a grea
The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty Four.
Aria’s POVI had been here for a few days and I actually rarely saw Mel. She mostly left me to myself. Sometimes checking in, but it was mostly her butler person. I thought it was strange, I was always taught that you kept a guest company.Ringing Elijah had been a mistake. I didn’t know what I wanted from him, but his phone number was the only one I had memorised. I had never needed to bother with Ryan because he had always been there, well, right up until he decided to abandon my fathers pack. I didn’t want to link Ryan either. I already knew how he felt.Making my way down the staircase, the front door suddenly opens. Mel is standing in the hallway, hanging off of some guy. Her eyes flash up to me and there is a hint of a smirk tugging at her lips.“Dinner is here,” she sings as she pushes the guy towards me. A human, hair darker than night, his blue eyes hazy but he still tries to hug me as he stumbles towards me.Mel was dressed in the same leather outfit from the night I first
The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty Five.
Ryan’s POVShe was nowhere to be found. I had sat in front of that club until it closed. She never appeared and there was no trace of her anywhere. Even her scent had faded.There were rumours, there had been some sort of commotion, but no one would really tell me what happened. It must be to do with Aria, it had to be.Scouring the town was just as disappointing and linking her was out of the question.“What are you doing mister?”A kid sits next to me on the bench. His icy blue eyes wide as he beamed up at me.“Watching the world go by.”“Is that cause you are old?” I hated kids.Quickly turning my head in his direction, I flash my fangs. It sends him running, screaming for his mommy. Though he did give me an idea.I knew Aria, she liked to watch the world go by. Like learning how people moved and acted. That was probably exactly what she was doing, but where?I could see houses up on the hills, large mansion types. The kind of houses Aria knows. Would she have gone all the way up t
The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty Six.
Alpha Elijah’s POVGlancing around, the people seemed different here. A mix of everything from human to wolf. I hadn’t known of this place, well not like this. It had always been a small village but a lot had certainly changed in the last few years.I saw the look Ryan had given me. As soon as he realised I knew of Mel. A wolf that I had come into contact with some time ago when I first became Alpha.How was it possible that she still looked the same? Like she hadn’t aged a single day?Everywhere I looked there were people, like it was somehow the party capital. It was never this wayPulling the number out my pocket. I quickly hit the numbers into my phone. On the first ring I hear that long drawl.“Stevenson household.”“Uh, hello. Could I speak with Aria?”There’s silence and I almost speak again when the voice suddenly tells me that she is preoccupied. What the hell does that mean?“Can I see her?”There is silence again. Aria was clearly there.“Please hold.” I wait as patiently
The Alpha’s Awakening Eighty Seven.
Ryan’s POVAria’s demands eventually turn to screams. It was pure anger, there was no pain radiating from her at all. Her anger wasn’t aimed at anyone. It rolled from her in huge waves, matching the beat of her thumping heart. Mel shakes her head at me, sliding the door open. Aria was chained to a wall.“Never would have thought I would need to use them,” she mutters next to me as Aria flips her head in my direction.Both her canines and fangs have descended, her eyes bloodshot. She had scratches to her face which Mel tells me Aria had done it to herself, it was why she had chained her.“She is getting worse, each time she tastes it, it sends her crazy.”She had never tasted it when she was in hospital. The donated blood had been pumped directly into her veins. When I had given her my blood, I had dripped it onto her back, she had never tasted it. She was barely alive the time she had sucked it from my wrist, she had been unable to do anything.“Don’t give her anymore.”“She has to de

The Alpha’s Awakening Epilogue.
“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
The Alpha’s Awakening Forty Five.
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
