Parker's P.O.V. I was ecstatic after getting the approval to start the blueprints for our home. Everyone in the pack was allowed a house of their own after finding their mate, under the condition that they contributed to the building of it themselves. Normally, the pack works together and brings the lines on the paper to life, but it was voluntary. I knew from my history that there wouldn't be many people lining up to help me. If there was one thing a wolf was guaranteed to do, it was holding a grudge. Our memories weren't perfect, but there wasn't too much that we would forget. It had been five years since I came home and reacted to Kate cheating on me with my brother. Knowing that pack hadn't forgiven me yet, meant that it would define me forever. That one outburst of hurt and betrayal had been held over me at every possible opportunity. Kaylee had gotten home before I did, and I had only hoped that no one was there to bother her. My mother adored her, but Kate, Jack, and my fath
Kaylee's P.O.V.I felt him tense beneath me before he slid the dining room chair backward. His arms moved down so he could pick me up easily, and I gasped as he rose to his feet, pulling my legs around his waist, refusing to let me go. The feeling of being pressed so close to him sent butterflies on a rampage through my stomach.My hands gripped his broad shoulders, admiring the way his muscles were moving and flexing beneath my touch as he carried me upstairs. His gaze was firm as he watched over my shoulder, and the darkness that grew in his eyes as I tightened my legs around his hips sent a thrill through me.Serious conversation aside, he was enjoying this closeness as much as I was. The feeling of our hips pressed together, of his hands on my ass as he carried me down the hall and toward his room… was incredible. I shifted in his hold, accidentally brushing against his hardening member and causing a growl to rip from his throat as he released one hand to open the bedroom door."Y
Parker's P.O.V. – Five Years AgoRunning had never felt so good. For the past three years, it was always a punishment or a training tactic to keep us in shape and build up our endurance. But now… now every step motivated me to take another, each one quicker than before. Because the faster I ran, the sooner I would see Kate.Being apart for the three years that I was at the Supreme pack for training was difficult, but being away from the woman I loved for that long was soul-crushing. I dreamed about her every single night. It was finally time for me to reunite with her, mark her, settle down with her, and start our family.All of my dreams were coming true. I had finished my training at the top of my class, something my father was sure to be proud of, I was about to have my woman back in my arms, and I was finally going home.The wind shifted as I grew closer, and the smell of my pack filled me with more excitement than before. I had yet to run with them in my true form. I didn't even
Parker's P.O.V. – Present Day The fresh morning air was refreshing and very much needed as I ran through the forest, stretching my legs. I knew Kaylee was an Oracle and not a wolf, but one day, I hoped we could run together, even if that meant I had to put her on my back. It was an exhilarating feeling to be able to move so quickly, so freely. It would be a nice way for her to bond with my wolf if she still wanted to be with me. Kaylee had been very understanding yesterday, almost too understanding. I told her about how after that incident, the pack was hard-pressed to welcome me back. She heard how I was ostracized to the point that I didn't want to stay here. She heard how I left for the next year and traveled from pack to pack, training with our allies and working hard to improve my ranking among our kind, not just our pack. The Alpha said it would be good to get away and digest the information before coming home. But by the way the packs I had visited paraded their unmated woma
Kaylee's P.O.V. One good thing came out of spending the day with Parker's mom. In addition to us getting along really well and having a blast together like old friends, was when I had touched her hand. I had the smallest of visions. It wasn't anything big, just her sitting on the porch swing, feeling peaceful. But it was a feeling that she seemed to be lacking currently. Knowing that she was going to finally have peace was exciting. Parker was stressed, and as the Alpha called the pack in for a meeting, I knew it was only going to get worse. The council didn't like that the Alpha moved in on the facility that was keeping Luna Olivia and myself in captivity. Not when the pack had a treaty with the clan of vampires, and the Vampires technically hadn't broken any of the agreements in the contract. The pack was in violation of the treaty, and there would be punishments for that. As he explained this to me, I knew I had nothing to worry about. As long as no one told them about me, their
Parker's P.O.V. "I had a feeling you were going to say that," Abram said under his breath. His chest expanded as he took in a large inhale before projecting his words out to the crowd. "Alpha Gabriel, under the bylaws of our council, an investigation will be open on you and your actions. Until a verdict has been reached, regarding the violation of the treaty and the attack on Shadow Hill, you are hereby stripped of your title." The pack all gasped or growled in response, mimicking my own anger. If Gabriel hadn't requested that we all stand down, I would have stepped forward. I led the charge that day, and I stood by my actions and the decisions I made during the attack. There was nothing that could have stopped me from saving our Luna and in turn, saving my mate. I was going to go find my mate anyway, so I would have ended up in that facility regardless. I would have torn out every throat and ripped off every head in that building if it meant saving Kaylee. She had been so strong s
Kaylee's P.O.V. I tried my best not to be the needy girl who wanted her boyfriend to stay with her at all times, but watching Parker walk into that building had my breathing come out just a little quicker than before. He was a very large man, someone who barely fit through doorways and looked like he could take down a grizzly bear with his bare hands. Yet, seeing him walk into that building sent me into a spiral. He had no idea what horrors could happen within those walls. I pictured him being overthrown, held down by several men before they dragged him down the hallway and into an empty section of the infirmary. A lone chair would be waiting for him in the middle of the room, the straps laced with silver and the base of the seat bolted down to the ground. My hands shook as I placed both palms on my temples, trying to break the image from my mind. But no matter how hard I tried, I saw him getting strapped down. The white lab coats moved around him, but I was unable to see the faces
Parker's P.O.V She looked so strong walking next to the Luna. I didn't want to crowd her, but after seeing and smelling Kaylee's fear and panic yesterday when I went to visit Scarlett, I knew it would be hard on her to go back to the infirmary today. Yet, she held her head up high and walked Olivia to go visit Scarlett anyway. Gabriel may have been temporarily stripped of his title as Alpha, but I would never refer to my brother as my Alpha, nor would I call Kate the Luna. Gabriel was the Alpha, and Olivia was our Luna. It was as simple as that. If Jack had a problem with it, he could exile me from the pack, and I would go find another one to live with. It wouldn't be easy, but I had been leaning that way regardless. It wasn't surprising to me that even after Scarlett had made an attempt to get Gabriel's attention, Olivia was still going to visit her. Olivia may not like her for making a move on her mate, but she was still a good person. Knowing that Scarlett had been so severely in

'The Wolf's Claim' After Oliver felt the excruciating pain of his mate's death, almost killing him in the process, he left his pack to travel and clear his head. He never expected that he would come across the one person who had caused him so much pain, to begin with, alive and well. Seeing that hi
Five Months Later Kaylee's P.O.V. I let out a groan as I was thrown onto my back for the tenth time today. Parker had been so proud of how quickly I moved up through the training groups, learning how to fight and defend myself. It wasn't until I was up against him that I got to experience firsthand just how incredibly skilled and fluid Parker was. I knew that from other aspects of our relationship, but seeing him fight and sparring against him myself was a different level. 'You need to focus, love,' Parker taunted as he nipped at my butt playfully. I flinched, my wolf rolling back onto her stomach as I glared at him. Part of it wasn't even my fault. How was I supposed to not get distracted by my incredibly attractive mate touching me? 'Let's call it a day,' I said as I shook my fur free of the loose grass. My attempt to saunter up to him failed as my sore muscles made it appear more like a drunken stumble. Parker choked out a laugh before rubbing the side of his wolf up against me
Parker's P.O.V. She made me promise not to drug her again, and while I wasn't wanting to use it, I still had an injection tucked away in my pocket. Her mother was excited to see Kaylee's wolf, but it was obvious that her over-excitement was an attempt to hide her nerves and anxiety about the outcome of the change. Kaylee was a buddle of sore and delicate excitement as she bounced and stumbled into the forest earlier than she needed to. I followed behind her, my arms ready to catch her if she fell, but she would just dance out of reach and laugh before moving deeper into the trees and underbrush. "You know you're going to be a wolf and not a woodland fairy, right?" I laughed as she ran her hand across the trunk of a tree. "I know!" She glared back at me with an adorable smile. "But that's just it. I am going to be a wolf with you." I dashed forward, scooping her up into my arms as she giggled. "I can't wait to see you, run with you, and feel you. I bet you have the softest fur pos
Parker's P.O.V. Over the next week, I watched as Kaylee did her best to stand strong and smile through the discomfort, but I could feel how much pain she was in as her body prepared for the full moon. It was so much worse than last time, and while I didn't like that she was hurting, I also took it as a good thing. To me, it was a sign that her wolf was stronger this time, that she was fighting to get out and ready to meet her human. It had taken less than a week for the Blood Moon Pack to come to their verdict under their pack laws, and all five wolves, the Luna included, were sentenced to death. We stood tall in the crowd as the wolves were brought forward and placed on their knees before their pack as their crimes were read. Alpha Blake had given Kaylee a quick squeeze on one shoulder before moving forward to stand in front of the accused. The smell of silver and wolfs-bane was strong in his system, and I admired that he was strong enough to dose himself to maintain control. A wo
Kaylee's P.O.V. The trip back to the Midnight Pack was bittersweet. Everyone was tense, knowing that Alpha Gabriel would not be happy that we all went on this rescue mission without his permission. Parker made me ride on his back the way home, and his excitement was pouring from his body. I held on tightly as he dipped and dodged around trees, bucking his back up higher than he needed to when he jumped over things. He was like a puppy playing. Every time I made a noise or tightened my grip on him, he would look back at me with his tongue hanging out to the side, and a large wolfish smile stretched across his face. It was adorable, and while my heart was hurting from having to be separated from my mother again after all this time, I couldn't help but smile back at him. Anytime I had seen his wolf out, he was angry or fighting someone. But this time, he was genuinely happy. I was half tempted to tell him to just keep going past our old pack and take me far into the sunset to live a p
Kaylee's P.O.V. The sound of a throat clearing had me reluctantly pulling away from Parker. My eyes glanced over the tensely reuniting Jack and Kate, who were standing close but weren't touching, to see my father standing in the doorway. His bright green eyes and dark brown hair were so similar to the younger man standing next to him, and I sighed in relief at the sight of Oliver standing tall and unharmed. "Don't worry about me. Just focus on your mate." Oliver said as he moved toward us and dropped into one of the leather chairs to my side with the back of one of his hands across his forehead. "Your little brother was just held captive, but whatever." I rolled my eyes with a smile as I shoved his shoulder with my hand. The burn marks were gone from his neck, and the bruising had disappeared from his face. There was a small twinkle in his eye as he sent a wink my way, and I knew he was happy that everything worked out. "Kaylee?" A small voice asked from the door, and my stomach ti
Kaylee's P.O.V. When we walked through the pack land, it was extremely noticeable how different the two packs were. The Earth thrived around the Blood Moon Pack. The grass and moss on the trees were a darker green than what I had been used to seeing at the Midnight Pack, and I couldn't help but take in a deep breath of the clean air. The pack had moved so silently on the moist, plant-rich ground that, had I not seen them, I would not have realized they were even walking with us. I expected to feel some sense of panic as they surrounded us and led us through the collection of houses, but instead, I felt peace. It was something that I hadn't felt in a very long time. I eyed the large house before us with wonder as we were led inside the stone and wood-decorated building. Although, one could argue this was a castle. Surrounded by mountains on both sides, the pack house was a large three-story building where all of the offices, communal kitchen, and game rooms were, as had been expla
Parker's P.O.V. I eyed the two wolves on patrol outside of their dungeons from a distance, watching and waiting to see if they had a pattern in the way they moved and if they were alone. So far, they seemed fairly well trained. While that wasn't an issue for four of us to take on two of them, it would become an issue if they saw us. All it took was one call in their pack link, and their entire fighting force would rain down on us. We wouldn't have the time to get downstairs and unlock Oliver before their reinforcements arrived. It was a huge risk, but we had no choice. 'Scarlett, Hudson, the two of you have the guard on the south side of the entrance. Jack and I will take the one on the north. We need to stay silent and approach from behind. If they get the chance to alert the pack that we're here, it'll all be over.' I said through the pack link, making sure all three of them could hear me as I waited for each one of them to acknowledge my instructions. With confirmation that we w
Kaylee's P.O.V. It only took a minute for a large brown and silver wolf to come barreling through the crowd. He slid to a halt, sending dirt flying as his wolf reached the border. My hands shook as I finally saw my father in front of me. I had heard about him when I was little, but not often. My mother didn't like talking about him too much. She would normally excuse herself after a few minutes and go cry in her bedroom, thinking I didn't notice or hear her. He had left her pregnant with me and then ripped her heart out to go start a family with his true mate. "You're the Alpha?" I questioned, knowing the answer at the way his wolf let out a small whine in my direction. His large paw lifted from the ground before he stomped it back down as if he were trying to tell me to walk over to him. "Your son, Oliver, is currently being held by your Luna. He was collected by your wolves two hours ago at the border. We ask that you demand his release and stop the war against my people in the M
