Irina

WITH MY PARENTS safely tucked away in our pack house, we could start with the preparations for whatever might be coming our way. Hunter and Isiah were busy outside with the warriors securing our borders while Emily and I made sure we had everything we could need inside.

Emily and a couple of my guards went into town to put up a notice that the store would be closed for a couple of days. With my parents' house neatly locked up and the store sorted out, all we could do was wait. I knew that each time Hunter disappeared downstairs he was interrogating our prisoners, and I didn’t want to be there while he did that.

I didn’t want to hear how much they hated me because I was human. I just couldn’t deal with the hatred of it all. I kept myself busy by training in the mornings and taking care of whatever anyone else needed the rest of the time. My mom refused to come out of her room and my father would look at me for a split-second before looking away. I knew I had to give them some tim

    IrinaIT TOOK SOME time to clean up the mess after the attack and I was standing on the porch looking out into the forest when I heard my mother’s distinct walk coming closer. I didn’t look in her direction as she walked through the door.“So, this is the life you’ve chosen for all of us. You didn’t stop for a moment to consider that your father and I wouldn’t want to be a part of this. That … That we wouldn’t want to become like this!” She sounded calm, which was far worse than when she was angry. I would have preferred my mother to shout at me right now. A calm mother under these kinds of circumstances did not bode very well.“When I chose this life for me, Mother, I didn’t think th…”“Yes, you didn’t think!” She interrupted me before I could finish and I felt a soft growl push through between my lips. I instantly regretted it when I saw her eyes grow wide.“No, Mother! I didn’t think that you would be so angry about it. Weren’t you the one who taught me to fight for what I wanted?

    IrinaOVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS, I watched our pack slowly getting serious cabin fever. The attacks were coming in so fast that Hunter gave the order for all of us to stay inside at all times. We couldn’t even open a window to smell the forest!Hunter had received reports from some of the packs that the attacks had also increased there and we were wondering where the hell all of these rogue wolves were coming from. After a long conference call with all the alphas, it seemed they agreed that these wolves couldn’t possibly all be purebloods. Somehow, the group that wanted to wipe my kind from the face of the earth was creating soldiers like me to fight against us.After the call, I was frowning and Hunter rubbed my lower back. I had started to develop pain in my lower back because of stress and whenever he rubbed it, it felt better, but this frown was not because of pain.“Hunter, two of the alphas weren’t in that meeting.” I knew what his answer was going to be even before he said i

    Irina“I don’t understand.” Rosemary didn’t sound confused about what I said. I could only guess that she wanted me to repeat it so she could be sure.“Then we … Us females will fight. If our men each want to hide in their castles … Let them!” I loved Hunter and I knew he would agree to all the packs standing together if it meant we would win and this would all be over. If he didn’t and I told him I was doing it anyway, he would be furious with me, but he would have no other choice but to follow me.“You are a clever little minx!” Rosemary exclaimed, sounding excited. I knew that once I had her on my side, getting the other females in line wouldn’t be a problem. It didn’t take Rosemary long to make all the calls and when she called me back, I smiled. We had a plan and the ladies were all in.Every single one of us was tired of being cooped up in our pack houses while men went off to war. All of us were tired of sitting around waiting to find out if they had been killed or not! We were

  • The Alpha's Human Mate   Chapter 66 - The gathering.

    IrinaGETTING EVERYONE TOGETHER WAS EASY. It was getting everyone packed that was a really hard job. We couldn’t take backpacks filled with supplies and clothes, and we couldn’t go without having something with us, so I left all those arrangements in Hunter and Emily’s capable hands. They had gone on these kinds of trips before.Okay, nothing like that, but they had gone on camping trips in their wolf form. While everyone was rushing around, I noticed that the door to the baby’s room was open and I took a deep breath before walking in. My parents had given us so much of my old furniture that it almost filled the room. The furniture was in far better condition than I originally thought, and our pack had gone above and beyond to restore it where it wasn’t as good.Soon, our little baby will be living in this room. I allowed myself to imagine him playing on the floor on a colourful carpet. As my eyes scanned the room, I could see it after it had been decorated with books and toys and eve

    IrinaIt didn’t take long for Hunter to find the alpha's body and, by the looks of things, this pack was killed a couple of days ago. We didn’t find any evidence that they were involved in any of the attacks but we also didn’t find anything to tell us that they weren’t.“I guess we will never know what really happened here.” I gripped Hunter’s arm as we watched the burial fires burn. It no longer mattered whether they were part of the attack against us. We were going to pay them the respect any of our kind deserved by giving them a proper funeral. Everyone pitched in as we cleaned up as much as we could and by evening said our final goodbye.I breathed a deep sigh of relief as I looked up at the stars. When this day started, I thought we were going to fight. I thought that some of us would not see tonight, but in a strange turn of events, we were all spared and we can spend one more night with our loved ones. We made camp and all around us people were slowly getting ready to turn in f

    Irina“Irina!” Hunter appeared beside me and we nuzzled each other for a second before Hunter defended me against another attack. The intense fighting was slowly dying down a little when a sudden burst of warriors appeared from the side of Carmine’s border. I realized we had been fighting an enormous number of rogues up to that point!I was beginning to feel as if we were going to lose and my heart shattered the moment I noticed Hunter going after Carmine. I heard a twig snap to my left and as my head whipped around, I saw the shadow of the wolf on its way to attack me. It pounced and we hit the ground hard. Jaws snapped and we were both snarling before I eventually got my jaws locked around it’s throat and it went limp.I noticed that biting down on a wolf’s throat was the most effective way to kill it. I didn’t want to snap at it and extend any fights longer than they had to be and these wolves weren’t there to just let us go. The stench of blood hung thick in the forest air as wolv

    IrinaLIFE WASN’T that easy, of course. There were two territories to deal with. One was completely open and the alpha was killed by Carmine. To complicate things more, Hunter killed Carmine, which, according to werewolf law, meant that Hunter now owned both those territories.My main problem was that I couldn’t trust the new wolves, and by the looks of things, neither did Rosemary’s mate. I thankfully didn’t have too much time to dwell on it since there was a lot to do. Hunter had to decide if he wanted the territory or if it should be divided up between all the alphas. He also had to decide what to do with the people who turned against us.I wasn’t surprised when he asked the rest of the alphas what they thought. War had been declared on all of our packs after all, and Hunter felt that they had a right to at least voice their opinions. It seemed the general consensus was that these people couldn’t be trusted. Everyone agreed that there might be one or two who didn’t agree with their

  • The Alpha's Human Mate   Chapter 70 - Time to make a decision.

    IrinaI wondered if it was too soon to start preparing for the baby, and then whipped around to search for Emily. It didn’t matter! We all needed something to boost our sense of hope for the future and what better way than to get ready for the new alpha? I didn’t know whether we were expecting a boy or a girl and it didn’t matter to me. I would be very happy either way, as long as our baby was healthy.I just naturally referred to it as him. I secretly hoped it was a boy since that would be the best for the pack, but I was sure that if we had a daughter, she would take care of our people just as well. The only reason a little girl would be a problem was the fact that we live in this patriarchal society and if she found a mate, she would automatically become a Luna.There were just too many issues if your first born was a female and you were an alpha. I found Emily buried under paperwork in my office and smiled as I leaned against the door frame.“Do you feel like doing some shopping?”

    IrinaAfter a couple of weeks, the new place was built and we all moved in. I loved the new setup more than I thought I would and it was actually great fun to have Rosemary so close by. The children had done an amazing job in getting everyone settled into the new place and as I walked down the beach, I breathed in the fresh morning air.I missed Archer terribly. He would have loved this new place so much. He had always loved the lake. I met Rosemary on the way and we caught up on all the last-minute arrangements for the day. Hunter had finally accepted his new position in life and there was just one thing he asked of the kids which they gladly gave.Now that we were all settled in, it would be the official ceremony to bind our two packs together according to our ancient traditions. Today was Ingrid and Richard’s mating ceremony and I could feel the excitement in the air. The packs had already come together as one much easier than any of us could ever have imagined they would.On the f

    Irina“Oh, no! Don’t you dare put me in the middle of this!” I glared at Hunter who was glaring right back at me. The discussions had been going around in circles for hours without a solution and he had pulled me aside to ask me to order Richard and our daughter to move home. Hunter, being Hunter, had found the only way he believed this arrangement would work.He thought Richard could just become Alpha of our pack and choose someone else to take over his pack. As if it would be that damn easy! What was my mate thinking?!“I don’t see what the problem is.” He huffed and for a split second I saw traces of Archer in my husband. They looked so damn much alike! “Other males move to the packs of their females, why can’t he?” Hunter was pouting as he waved his hand through the air before clamping his arms tightly over his chest.“Would you have left your pack for me?” I studied my mate. “If I refused to live this life, Hunter. Would you have given up everything just for me?” I could see that

    IngridI was hoping I looked sexy, but I knew I didn’t as I fumbled to try and fit him inside me. I was just about to give up when Richard reached out and helped me and I nearly swallowed my tongue the moment he pushed inside of me. I liked this position! I had seen it in movies and always wondered about it, even if I looked away as soon as it came on.It felt as though he was going even deeper and I wondered if that was even possible. I wasn’t entirely sure if I should hunch on my legs or just move my hips, but clearly Richard knew what he was doing as he guided me and we were soon captured in the throes of passion!“Yeah, that’s it! Ride me!” He growled through clenched teeth and it gave me the small confidence boost I needed. I was doing it right! Richard pushed himself up and he clung to my body as I moved. It took a little longer for us to reach that peak this time, but just as I felt myself about to tumble over, he leaned closer. I felt his canines scarping my skin for just a mo

    IngridIt was as though that was all he needed to hear as he slowly started to push into me. In an instant, I was flooded with hunger. I wanted him more than anything. I needed him. The expression of needing someone … Really needing them finally made sense! The world finally made sense! Why men went to war for women made sense!Richard stopped pulling me out of my ridiculous thoughts and when a frown formed on his brow, I thought I had done something wrong.“I’m not sure if you know this, but this next part will hurt a little. I promise you it will be the one and only time I will ever hurt you.” He stroked a stray piece of hair out of my face and I nodded. I could have told him that it wouldn’t be the last time he hurt me, but I didn’t. My mind was running at a mile a minute with all sorts of distracting thoughts and I didn’t want to spoil the moment with any of them.As Richard thrust into me, I cried out and he held me for a moment. It was painful, but it wasn’t unbearable pain. I c

    IngridI wouldn’t say I was entirely innocent. I knew which parts went where and what to do with all those parts, I just hadn’t physically done any of it up to now. Why hadn’t I done it before?! Having him touch me in those sacred places felt out of this world! It was incredible! I had never in my life felt as relaxed and happy as I did in that tub in Richard’s arms.As Richard got out of the tub, I wondered if that was it. Was it over now? I knew it couldn’t possibly be it! He held out his hand and I frowned.“Is it over?” I pouted and he burst out laughing, making my cheeks turn a bright shade of red!“No, my sweet Ingrid. That was just the start. The water is getting cold. I thought we would move this to the bed where we could be more comfortable.” He smiled at my look of shock and I silently swore at myself. I shouldn’t have waited! At least if I had done it once before, I wouldn’t have been such a damn idiot the first time with my mate!Richard picked me up bridal style and carri

    Ingrid“Stay right there, okay?” He looked around and I nodded. I laughed when he started opening cupboards and swore. “I will be right back.” He grinned and disappeared. When he returned, he had a box filled with candles in hand and he walked right into the bathroom.“That is really not necessary, Richard. We didn’t know this was going to happen tonight.” I laughed as he opened the taps for the bath and started to light the candles.“In that case, you can light the candles while I get us some Champaigne.” He winked and disappeared before I could say anything else. I did as he said and I have to admit that it helped ease the nervousness I was feeling. When he returned with the Champaigne, I had lit all the candles and he opened the bottle for us. After pouring each of us a glass, he held out his glass to me and I blinked and watched him. I had never imagined him as someone who could be very romantic.“To us. May we only share happiness and love.” He sounded a little out of breath and

    IngridI scanned his room. His bedding was white, which was a surprise. A single black line decorated the border around the edge of the bedding and the pillow cases. A huge bed stood in the middle of the room and on either side was a set of beautiful antique free-standing cupboards.“This will be yours.” He rubbed his palms on his sides before opening the cupboard for me and I wondered if he was as nervous as I was.“Thanks.” I smiled as he opened the cupboard and I realized it was left empty for his mate. An awkward silence fell between us for a moment.“I will give you a moment to settle in. Would you like anything to eat or drink?” He was nervous! It was so damn cute!“Something to drink would be nice.” I smiled as I realized my mouth was feeling incredibly dry. “Something strong!” I laughed nervously as his face relaxed and he smiled. He nodded and disappeared while I unpacked my overnight bag and made my way to his bathroom. It was beautifully done in white and black marble. The

    IrinaHunter and I didn’t even have to ask the moment we saw Ingrid move. It was clear that she had found what she had been looking for all day and when they kissed, I nearly cried. We knew the boy. Hunter and I had been invited to his alpha ceremony while Ingrid was away on her trip. He was one of Archer’s friends from when they were younger, but the one thing that caught my attention the most was that he was Rosemary’s grandson!He wasn’t just any wolf, and thank the goddess, he wasn’t human!IngridRichard pulled away just enough so he could look into my eyes and I almost melted when he tucked a stray piece of my hair behind my ear. It reminded me of something I saw my father do for my mom once and how I thought that I wanted that kind of love one day.“Hi beautiful,” He smiled and I felt my cheeks turn bright red.“Hi.” Over the years, I looked at my brother’s friends and wondered about them. It was logical that I would one day be mated to an alpha or even a beta. Some of my frien

  • The Alpha's Human Mate   Chapter 108 - Love at the festival

    IrinaThe excitement hung thick in the air in the morning as everyone got ready to attend the Founder’s Day festival. It was the one day the entire town came to a halt and took the time to celebrate our town. It felt as though we were celebrating Ingrid’s return for two continuous days. I loved every moment of it. In my mind’s eye, I could actually see the many dinners and festivals Ingrid experienced while she was away.This was exactly what our town needed after the hunter was there. People needed to see us moving between them. They needed to talk to us and be reminded that we were human. We had to show them we weren’t the monsters the hunter was trying to make us out to be. None of them knew the truth, of course. The sheriff was one of the first to greet us when we arrived and the relieved smile on his face said it all.We had been working overtime to squash any rumours that were still flying around and finally, things seemed to have returned to normal.I caught sight of Ingrid tal
