The Alpha's Burning Heart 33 Not As Meek As I Seem
Raina's POVI left the building and decided to do some shopping. On my way to the store, I came across Beta Alec. he did not seem to be in a good mood, and I wasn't in the mood for his crap, but he was my superior now, so I had to respect him."Where are you going?" He asked me, and I rolled my eyes, wondering what he wanted. It seems these people were yet to understand that I wasn't as gentle as I appeared around Tristan."None of your business," I said, and he walked up to me and squeezed my cheek together so it would hurt. I didn't think twice when I kicked him in the groin, and he let out a growl. He was angry, and I could see it. We also attracted the attention of others."Stubborn, arrogant bitch!" he said in annoyance, and I didn't care. "It seems alpha's punishments are not working anymore," he said and I fought the urge to laugh. If only he knew what Tristan saw as punishment. They were punishments I welcomed wholeheartedly. The thought of last night alone almost made me la
The Alpha's Burning Heart 34 In His Place
Raina's POVThe pack had gathered, their eyes fixed on us, the tension in the air thick enough to cut with a knife. Alec's wolf stood opposite me, his posture dripping with arrogance. This fight had been a long time coming; Alec was a bully, and today, I was determined to put him in his place. I was going to use him as an outlet for my pain, anger and frustration.I growled low in my throat, the sound reverberating through my chest. Alec's wolf smirked, clearly underestimating me. Without warning, he lunged, his massive form instantly closing the distance between us. I met him head-on, our bodies colliding with a bone-jarring impact. His claws raked across my side, but I twisted away, snapping my jaws at his exposed flank. He was strong, but I had the advantage of agility. We circled each other, a whirlwind of fur, fangs, and claws. The pack watched in stunned silence, the usual cheers and jeers absent as they took in the brutal reality of the fight.Alec aimed a vicious swipe at my h
The Alpha's Burning Heart 35 Not There Yet
Tristan's POVSomething about Raina beating up Alec had made my day. I had wanted to spend the day with her, but she insisted on clearing the dishes. I knew she lingered in the pack house, and I was sure it was to inform Alison about the food sent to the Slave cells.Now that I had her where I wanted, I wouldn't let go.Taking her from the wall to the couch was necessary. I wanted my fill, and so did my wolf. I never imagined a day when she would be mine again, but here we were.Natasha banged on my door continuously while I fucked Raina through it. I wanted her moaning. I wanted to hear what I did to her and how much she needed me."Tristan," Raina finally moaned my name while I hit her most sensitive spot. I felt her walls clasp around my cock, meaning she was coming again. "Always call me by my name, blue-eyes. Do you think you can do that?" I said, ramming into her, keeping the pace and wanting to sustain her orgasm."Yes!" she moaned, both in approval of what I was doing and the
The Alpha's Burning Heart 36 Reality Check
Raina's POVIt would be foolish to get carried away. Tristan might be testing me. Regardless, it didn't change the fact that I couldn't have children and I wasn't his wife. Nothing could alter that reality.He could fuck me as much as he wanted, but those two things would remain unchanged. Whether he claims Natasha or not, she is still his Luna. She will be the one introduced as his wife, the one accompanying him to events, the one receiving guests on his behalf, and the one seen as his other half.This was why Alison couldn't speak and why I dared not tell Tristan that she had fed Dean and tried to frame me. I had to be cautious because, in the end, Natasha was his wife, and I knew that once Tristan was done with me and his revenge, she would have his child. He needed an heir, and that was the reality. Denying it would only hurt me more in the end. I love Tristan and always will, but the damage is done. I doubt we could ever return to that moment when he first kissed me when we made
The Alpha's Burning Heart 37 Pushing Back
Raina's POV"Get out of my house. Your services aren't needed here. Someone is cooking and cleaning already, and no beds are here for you to warm. You will never be good enough for bedding, just something to bend over his desk and ease his tension or maybe fuck on his couch," She said, and I knew she was trying to get me. What happened yesterday hurt her. I could see it."At least he is fucking me," I said and moved closer to her sniffing around her. I could pick up his scent, but it meant she had been around him and nothing more."He hasn't even touched you. Don't be so confident about the pups, Luna. If anything, I know Alpha is vindictive, and he is bound to get someone his brother hasn't tainted to bear him pups. You are wasting your time," I said and then pulled away. Someone joined us, and I realised it was the maid working in the house."Good Morning, Ms Winters," The maid greeted me with respect, and Natasha chuckled."Ms Winters, her name is Omega Raina, Headmaid Raina; she i
The Alpha's Burning Heart 38 Just A Little Longer?
Tristan's POVRaina was silent while we went up the stairs to my bedroom. I would have gone to her last night, but Jared and I couldn't get away until three in the morning.I knew she would be asleep by then, so I came home. Maybe I should have just gone to the pack house and snuck into her bed, but I didn't feel she would like that. The words she had spoken to me and Natasha in the office stayed with me, and I sort of knew seeing me might not be a thing of joy to her. At least not anymore. The light in her eyes was gone, and I doubted we could ever get it back.I entered the room, and she locked the door. Raina knew I didn't want Natasha to know."Get on the bed, and take off your shit. I want to see it," She said, and I did as she had said. I had managed to dress the wound, but I doubt I had treated it properly."Where is your first aid kit?" she asked, and I pointed at the cupboard. Watching her trouble herself over me gave me a bit of joy. It showed that she still cared, no matter
The Alpha's Burning Heart 39 A Little Progress
Raina's POVI didn't know what had gotten into me, but it felt like the right moment to tell him exactly how I felt. I wanted to rest in Tristan's arms, breathe him in, and wish away all that had happened—the pain and sorrow, everything—but it was impossible. He stroked my back gently, comforting me while I wept, my emotions about the place."You wouldn't have found me, Blue Eyes. I was far away," he finally said, and I stopped crying and pulled away from him."Honestly, I'm glad you're alive and well, and you could take it all back. I never imagined you would because you seemed content back then, but I guess we all pushed you far enough for you to push back," I said, chuckling painfully."I know the feeling now. I understand it," I confessed, and he reached out and wiped away my tears. Realising I had lingered and knowing his temperament, I decided to get up."I should leave and let you rest," I said. He shook his head and got up, and I could see the difficulty and pain on his face, e
The Alpha's Burning Heart 40 A Banter With Jenifer
Raina's POVJenifer tried to wriggle her hand away, but I held it firm. I wasn't going to make it easy for her."You should have taught your daughter this lesson. She needed it. She would have benefited from this lesson since Dean was fucking her back then. She was Dean's whore, you know? Unfortunately for her, he fucked her in private. He didn't want anyone to know. He was ashamed of his actions, ashamed of her for what they did. So he fucked her in private simply because I wouldn't give it up. She was a fake replacement then, so what do you think she is now?" I asked, and she growled at me."I am shocked you can feel pain, Jenifer. So it is okay for your daughter to sleep with married men? But I can't? Where is the sense in that, Jenier; what is good for one is good for all," I asked, and she tried to yank her hand away from me. I looked around the room and then smirked at her, still holding her hand in a grip. I knew she was in pain, but that was the point of it all."You bet I enjo

The Alpha's Burning Heart 120 A Little Glimpse Into The Future
Raina's POVTwo Year LaterThe new trade law indeed favoured our people; there were jobs and new processing plants and factories under construction in Ironclaw. All illegal business activities were discontinued in Ironclaw. People that had left in search of greener pastures had returned. The other regions were not impoverished as the dead kings had feared, but wealth was evenly distributed, and more opportunities were created. The Nighthowler territory was being built, and it was almost completed. Former Nighthowlers emerged from everywhere to come home, and Tristan built his palace there. It was nothing big but a semblance to the type of home he promised to build for me while we sat at the lake when we were teenagers, and he promised me the world. We had recollected most of our promises and fulfilled the ones within our capacity.One of the most surprising things that happened after the battle with the evil kings was finding out that Alisia and Dean were fated. What were the odds
The Alpha's Burning Heart 119 Closure
Raina's POVEverything had happened so fast, and somehow, the fear we might not survive had dissipated as we realised we were all fortunate to keep our lives. Luna Lisa was rushed to the hospital, but my mother said she would be fine. While Tristan discussed with the allies of the other royal families that had helped us take down the Kings, Dean walked to me to talk. It was an inevitable discussion, and I didn't know what angle it would take, but I braced myself for it. Clutching the robe around my body, I waited for him."Hey," he said, and I looked at him. We hadn't spoken since he woke up, and to think Alisia and I were the ones that found them."Rainy," he said, calling me how he referred to me often."I guess fate never lies," he said, and I looked at him. His eyes had a sadness and longing that I knew I could never alleviate."I never got to thank you for saving me and my mother. Alec told me how you and Alisia risked your lives to save us. I am grateful," he said, and I nodded.
The Alpha's Burning Heart 118 A Reckoning

Lucian's body crumpled to the floor, lifeless.Alec and Jared fought together, a formidable pair. Abel and his men tried to hold them off but were overwhelmed. Alec's powerful jaws crushed skulls and severed limbs, while Jared's speed and agility made him a blur of death. Abel's wolf fell beneath their combined assault, his body torn apart.The battle raged on, brutal and bloody. Some enemy wolves tried to escape, but the exits were barred. They were trapped, forced to face their doom. Ian Braxon and the rest of the Ironclaw alphas fought with savage grace, their wolves cutting through the remaining guards and assassins.Dean's wolf, covered in blood, finally brought down King
The Alpha's Burning Heart 117 Welcome To IronClaw
Tristan's POVThe air in the banquet hall grew thick with tension as I signalled for the doors and windows to be shut. The heavy thud and clatter echoed ominously, and I saw the flicker of realisation in the eyes of King Lucian, King Rufus, and King Oswald. Their arrogance had blinded them to the trap they had walked into. The time for pleasantries was over. Tonight, their reign of terror would end.Dean and our mother stood among the guests, their disguises blending seamlessly. Their eyes met mine, and a silent understanding passed between us. Our allies within the royal families were poised to act. The alphas of Ironclaw, Ian, Braxon, and their men were ready. The plan was in motion.King Lucian's laughter died in his throat as I bared my teeth in a feral grin. "Welcome to Ironclaw, gentlemen," I said, my voice dripping with menace. "You will not leave this hall alive."The assassins, led by Reuben and Abel, moved swiftly to protect the three kings and their families. But we were r
The Alpha's Burning Heart 116 The Engagement Party
Tristan, POVThe day of the event was finally upon us. We positioned our men about the place, and the banquet hall was prepared.The Ironclaw alphas arrived at the venue, and soon, the three kings and some of their family members were around. Our moles, and hopefully the future kings, were there, too. There was a look of arrogance in King Lucian's eyes. King Rufus was friendly, but I knew he didn't mean well either. King Oswald was unreadable, but it didn't matter. We were still going to carry out our plan. Their reign of terror would end tonight.The kings brought us gifts and sat at their tables with their wives. Raina and I were there too. I noticed King Rufus's eyes linger on Raina. She was looking stunning. Some effort was made in her beautiful cream seductive gown. That showed cleavage and skin. She was a walking temptation. Her lips were red, and her eyes were ice blue. Her dark hair made her skin a lot paler. They had never seen such beauty, and she was mine. King Oswald's han
The Alpha's Burning Heart 115 A Perfect Plan 2
Tristan POVWe were still talking when my mother decided to grace us with her presence. The entire place was silent. It wasn't news anymore that she was a true Knight and not my father, as they had all expected. She was still royalty. It is in her blood."And while you are at it, I want my pound of flesh from Lucian. He was the one who started this nonsense. His father had agreed to improve on the trade deal. I remember the day his father and mine signed the agreement, but Lucian was too greedy. When he came into power, he knew how much he would lose in revenue and couldn't have it, so he instigated the other three against Ethan. Randolph did not join in and was shunned and excluded for that purpose. They frustrated Ethan's effort and finally used Darius and some of you to silence the man. Then, soon, when Darius realised he wasn't being treated as an equal, he decided to rise above his station. They sent the enclave to keep him in check since they were the ones that placed him there.
The Alpha's Burning Heart 114 A Perfect Plan
Tristan POV I woke up in the morning energised and ready to face the future. Alec had reached out to his friend in Renhall, and we had a plan. Dean also contacted a family member of King Oswald. I couldn't believe my brother was helping me. Instead of working against one another, we were working together. He promised to gather his own men. Although Dean was lazy with responsibilities, he was a good fighter. He just didn't like fighting, but I noticed something had changed. There was a maturity and new resolve in him. He had the look I had in my eyes now. I guess we were even somehow. The alphas arrived in the morning and were shocked to see Dean and me working together. I introduced Dean to them in his new Royal capacity, and they were happy. Ian was the most happy. Braxon was pissed to learn about the cottage in the woods at his border. I honestly did not think he was a traitor, knowing that many illegal activities were being perpetrated in Irconclaw; the kings had their goons ev
The Alpha's Burning Heart 113 Join Me At The Lake
Raina's POVI didn't leave Elisabeth until the evening. We ate together, and I kept her company. My mother and Mrs Lana, former Delta's wife, came to join us. Dean never showed up, but Jared told me Tristan was with Dean. I guess they needed the privacy and time to mend their nonexistent relationship. Hopefully, they would get it right this time. When it was time to return home, I heard Tristan's voice in my mind."Join me at the lake, Blue Eyes," he said, and I felt butterflies. I always looked forward to spending time with Tristan. Having missed him since his mother and brother were found, I was glad to finally have him to myself now that they were awake.I left Elsiabeth's house and headed to the lake. I contemplated dressing up first but was too eager and headed to the lake instead. Upon getting there, I was surprised. Tristan was on a picnic mat with a basket, staring at the still water that reflected the shape of the full moon. His profile was handsomely illuminated by the m
The Alpha's Burning Heart 112 I Can Breathe
Raina's POVLearning that Dean and Luna Elisabeth had pulled through and had woken up made me both glad and worried at the same time. Glad that they were fine, worried about the trouble they might cause. I know it would be impolite not to pay the former Luna respect. So I bought a flower and headed to King Darius's house, where I knew they were staying. Luckily for them, Tristan had kept the place clean, so it wasn't in disrepair, and Luna Elisabeth could easily move in. I bought her a bouquet of white carnations and a box of pistachio cookies, her favourite. This time, I watched them pack the cookies in my presence and seal the pastries in the box. I can't have risked my life to save the woman only to serve her poison. Knowing how she was and what she had gone through gave me a new level of respect for her, but I was still not over how she threatened me to be with Dean. I guess I would always have that grudge against her. It was understandable; after all, it ruined my life.When I g
