Aláine's Point of View

When we arrived at the police station, Kristof parked the car across the road. There were plenty of parks and not many people about at this stage of the day.

"I'll lock up and pay for parking," said Kristof, "and then I will come in too. There are some pack members that I wish to talk to."

I looked at him before trying not to smirk. The first thing that popped into her head was the K9 unit. It was rather speciest if that was even a word, and I had no intention of letting him know that. No intention at all. Kristof gave me the side-eye, so I tried to smile naturally before giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"How many?" I asked.

"Just a couple," was the answer, "I want to see if we can get any information on Viktor. At least we now have a name."

"See you soon," I replied and went in.

Entering the police station through the front door, I could see the usual police officer I dealt with, waiting for me. It was pretty quiet inside too, and there weren't very many people

    Viktor's Point of ViewI was headed to the Police Station to see if I could get some information on the vehicle we crashed into, not that I would let them know it was deliberate. I just had to ensure that if there were any werewolves in the building, I didn't get caught by them. They might be from the same pack, though more likely to be from the local one. However, I couldn't be sure.Driving past, I saw plenty of parks, but I didn't want to park close in case I had to make a run for it. I went around the corner leading away from the Police Station and took one of the many parks there. It was simply a matter of paying for parking at the meter. I used cash instead of a credit card. Call me paranoid, but I didn't want to be traced, so I shunned banks and credit cards. None of my men had them either. We had stolen and looted most of our money, so there was no real need for banks.Before I got out of the car, I ran through everything I wanted to say to get the information I needed. My ca

    Kristof's Point of ViewWhen we got home, I asked Aláine to send all of the photos to me, explaining that I would send them to certain pack members who were already searching for Viktor, including my pack members in the police force."Having the photos will make it so much easier for them," I explained wanting to set her mind at ease.Aláine was obviously anxious, and I neede767 to protect my mate and fix that. I hated that she felt like this. I was in love with her and totally devoted to her. Thanks to Zara, I knew what she had been through though, and I had to temper my strong wolfish instinct, remembering that Aláine was only human at this stage.Two days later, Michel received a text from one of his men, who had been looking for Viktor."We've found him Alpha," he mind-linked."How soon can you get the team organised?" I answered."About thirty minutes."I then included Noah in the mind link, "Thirty minutes in my office," I demanded.From my seat, I watched Aláine help Frederic i

    Olivier's Point of ViewViktor was ranting again. He had just arrived back from town and told me he had seen Aláine at the Central Police Station. He was worried that Aláine had managed to take his photo but was still confident that they wouldn't find us out here in our cabin.We were living, if you could call it that, outside of town enough that it was considered remote but close enough that we had cellphone coverage and internet access. It was surrounded by forest, and we had managed to put some traps up, just in case. I made the others dig some deadfall pits and other sorts of deadly surprises for anyone coming around. The small wooden cabin was nothing more than a living area with an open kitchen and one bedroom. Viktor and I slept in the bedroom, while the other four slept in the living room. It wasn't ideal, but it was reasonably warm. We had an open fire every night and a wood burner stove on which we could cook. Once we turned, we became used to barely scraping by, so it was

    Kristof's Point of View Breakfast the following day was early and quiet. Although Noah, Michel and I were the only ones from our packhouse going on the mission, Aláine, Zara, Callie, Kieran, and Frederic joined us. Callie, Kieran and Frederic would stay behind with Aláine and Zara. I didn't think there would be any trouble here, but I wanted to make sure. I felt that the three remaining would be strong enough werewolves to handle any problem. As far as Michel's contacts had been able to ascertain, there weren't that many in Viktor's team. Only three had been seen, so maybe four or five at the most. Hopefully, everything would go smoothly, but best be prepared if something didn't go to plan. Viktor had shown himself to be quite tactical and cunning. I didn't want to underestimate him. There was far too much at stake if I did. It was still dark when we arrived at the parking site, ready to start the mission. There were twelve of us and we were divided up into three squads of four. N

    Kristof's Point of ViewFinally, we reached the cabin. The morning sky was no longer dark, but it was still earlier than most werewolves woke. Everything was as Jacques had informed us. I could smell at least four separate werewolves, and there was the distinct odour of rogue, so at least we knew what, if not who, we were dealing with. The scent was definitely fresh as in within six hours, but that could be because they were inside sleeping. What I did detect was a powerful metallic tang of blood. Someone had been bleeding. A lot. There was still some smoke coming out of the chimney, but it didn't look as if it had been left to die. The van with the number plates Michel had been following was parked outside. It was cold, so it had not been used recently.With what I was seeing and smelling and no guard outside, I felt uneasy."Something is wrong," I said.Michel and Zach shifted into human form and carefully looked in the windows. Then Michel carefully opened the back door."There i

    Kieran's Point of View"Alpha! Can you hear me?" I mind-linked to Kristof.Frederic lay on the bloody grass, groaning in pain. Callie also lay on the grass, motionless and unconscious. Zara was holding on to Axel, scared and crying with worry. Our Luna was gone, and Kristof, Noah and Michel were nowhere near the packhouse. Everything had turned to shit. Three hours agoWe started the morning at 3:00 am with an early breakfast. With Kristof, Noah and Michel going on a mission, we wanted to eat with them before they left. Kristof was trusting us to keep Aláine safe. It was a quiet breakfast. None of us were really talking much, but we still felt we needed to be there. Kristof wouldn't go into details of the mission because he didn't want to alarm Aláine, as she had not had her first shift. At this stage, she was still effectively human.Aláine's Point of ViewI wanted, no... needed, to have breakfast with Kristof this morning. He was going off on a mission because of me. My emotions

    Aláine's Point of ViewDiscussion moved away from Kristof and me, for which I was glad, and on to Zara. Although she and I often spoke about her sex life, I wasn't entirely comfortable discussing mine, especially around Callie. From what I gathered, werewolves were quite open about sex, but not me. Zara should feel right home, though."So... Zara," Callie persisted, suggestively lifting her eyebrows in the same way as before, "tell us about Noah. How's it going with you two?""Hard to say," answered Zara."I really like him, but I am not sure what will happen when his true mate turns up.""Has he not told you if you are his true mate or not?" asked Callie."He should have at least said something."Callie was not happy about that and I felt the same, but I wasn't sure if that was something you discussed openly. I had so much to learn about werewolf culture. This might end up being a full-time job."What about you, Callie?" I asked."How will you know when your true mate comes along?""

    Kristof's Point of ViewAs soon as the van screeched to a stop in front of the house, I was out of the door looking for her. Hearing the others, I ran straight around the house towards the forest. Aláine was nowhere to be found. Zara was in tears over Frederic, who had a wound on his chest. Axel was running around barking while Kieran was sitting on the grass holding an unconscious Callie in his arms. To call it chaos was an understatement.Where was Aláine? I stripped and changed into my Lycan form and sniffed around for Aláine's scent. Despite being half an hour old, I had found it and was able to follow it. I noticed that there were three to four other scents there, including Viktor’s. I would know his fetid stench anywhere. My nose led me straight to a large manmade hole in the fence. Going through the hole, I continued following her scent, which took me as far as the road."Aláine!" I howled loudly to the empty road."Aláine!"I wanted to find Viktor and his pack of rogues, and t

    Unknown's Point of View I finally found Viktor holed up in a small cabin in the woods. It had obviously seen better days. Any paint had long since flaked away, and the gardens were overgrown. I walked up the path to knock on the equally run-down door. "Ahhh, Viktor," I said, "The man I have been looking for." "And what do I owe the pleasure, Mr...?" Viktor replied. "Who I am is of no matter at this moment," I stated. "I want to know what you intend to do with the woman, Aláine?" I watched that pathetic, snivelling werewolf, Viktor. He was cowering before me, although he neither knew who nor what I was. When I mentioned the Aláine woman, I could see the indecision on Viktor's face. "She is my Luna!" he screamed at me. "No, she is not!" I snapped back at him. "She belongs to another. She never belonged to you and never will." The frustration on his face was sweet. God, I hated werewolves. Viktor walked around his little cabin. The inside was similarly as run-down as the outside

  • The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna)   Ch. 106 - Celebration

    Aláine's Point of View Tomorrow night was the first full moon after my shift. Kristof and I were to be mated in front of our pack. During the two weeks, Kristof had taken me into their little township to meet many of the pack members. It was nerve-wracking, but it gave me a sense of purpose too. I was finally meeting all the people Kristof was responsible for and, by extension, for whom I would be responsible. Being a Luna was a considerable responsibility. Fate had put me in that position, so I was going to make sure I didn't let Kristof or our pack down. My guards, Daniel and Jake, had taken Zara and me into the city to purchase a gown. I chose a lovely cream lace dress with spaghetti straps. My favourite style. It hugged the curves in my body but was also elegant. There was a slight flair from the knees, ending halfway down the calves at the front. At the back, it reached my shoes at the bottom. It was a dress that said wedding without actually saying it. Just perfect. Initially

    Aláine's Point of View My life consisted of walking with Kristof and Axel in the morning, having breakfast then training with Michel, Daniel and Jake. After lunch, I would spend hours cooped up with Noah learning how to do the accounts. Then I would have time to spend with Zara and Callie before dinner. Evenings were spent doing another kind of exercise with Kristof. I had never been so busy or so tired, but I can't say I hated it. During our nighttime trysts, Kristof broached the subject of a Luna Celebration where we would be officially mated in front of the pack. I would then be inaugurated as Luna officially. This was a big thing as far as the pack were concerned. They hadn't had a Luna in years, not even with the last Alpha. When the last Alpha stepped down, Kristof stepped up to take his place. He had been groomed to take over the position as the previous Alpha had no offspring. This was unusual, but the Alpha was gay, and neither he nor his mate wanted children. They could ha

    Aláine's Point of View The following morning, we took Axel for a run before breakfast. It was good to see that he could run again and loved running throughout the forest. I didn't need to run with him, as he would take off and return often. It also gave me a chance to have quality time with Kristof, which didn't involve sex. When we sat for breakfast, Kristof explained that Michel would take Daniel, Jake and me for training. We would train together, so I could get used to their fighting style. Kristof made it quite clear that the purpose of the exercise was self-defence, and it would be up to my guards to keep me safe. All four of us first went for a run in wolf form around the forest as a warm-up. Michel decided it would be preferable to learn to fight in human form while only practising running in wolf form. I needed to be comfortable as a wolf before learning to fight like one. Once I was warmed up, Michel went over the basic principles of hand-to-hand combat. The first principl

    Aláine's Point of View Kristof and I arrived home from the police station and went straight to his office. Noah was already there working. "Afternoon, Noah," said Kristof. "Afternoon," I echoed, smiling. "Alpha, Luna, what do you need?" Noah asked. "I need you to run Aláine through the accounts and coach her through taking over from you," Kristof replied. "I think this is an area that the Luna can oversee under your guidance at first." "Brilliant," smirked Noah. "I would be happy to show you the ropes." Noah and I spent the next two hours going over accounts. I knew that Kristof owned quite a few businesses under the name of Kristof Blackwolf. His construction company, Blackwolf Industries, was doing exceptionally well in the human world. The same company was constructing the new guard house and family units. This company had an actual accounting firm running the books, but it was overseen by Noah and now me. A certain percentage of the net profits were funnelled into the pack a

    Aláine's Point of View When that arsehole trafficker, Sunny Chan, grabbed me, I was scared. That pissed me off because after turning, I managed to scare Viktor. I shouldn't have been scared of a stupid human, but I was, and I know for a fact that Kristof would have felt it. I felt his anger in response to it. I smelt and heard Samson as he snuck into the interrogation room. As soon as he grappled Sunny, I made my move to get out of his hold. Luckily it wasn't hard. I could have gotten out of it, but then I didn't want to show how strong I actually was. Grrr. How the hell do werewolves figure this shit out? Before walking out of the room, I told the detective I was finished here. He just nodded. Even the lawyer managed to look contrite. So he should. After this, it would be hard for his client to come out of this without some form of penalty. Maybe if he does, I could do something about it. I could sense that Kristof was standing outside of the room. It was pretty obvious the direct

    Kristof's Point of View Samson knocked on the door, and one of the detectives opened the door and greeted us. He was definitely a human, so I knew there was no way I could force the issue of letting me stay in the interrogation room with Aláine. When she went in, Samson motioned me to come to the next room, where there was a one-way mirror I could look through. "Sorry, Alpha, I couldn't let you stay in the room with Luna, even if the Chief allowed you," he apologised. "The lawyer for this arsehole would have a field day, and we can't let him walk. He is trafficking women for sex." Damn! Humans were disgusting at times. I severely doubted anyone in our community would do such a thing, though I wasn't sure about Vampires. They needed to get blood somehow, and I had heard stories. "At least this way, we can keep an eye on Luna without alerting anyone," Samson continued. My attention moved from Samson to the perp. So this guy was a pimp, but just on a grand scale. He was wearing a sui

    Kristof's Point of View So far, today has been a wonderful day. Aláine and I started with our first run as mates, then ended with incredible sex. It was time to take the party inside. As much as I enjoy making love to her outside, we have a comfortable bedroom to continue it. Cameras can be on outside to pick up any disturbance, and the bedroom is soundproofed. "Let's get some food," I said in answer to Aláine's grumbling tummy. "I feel like all I ever do is eat," she said embarrassingly. "I did tell you we burn more calories than humans, and we have not only been for a run but also had fantastic sex. That has burned off quite a few." I responded. "Lead the way," she declared, laughing. "Please feed me before I faint from hunger." "At your service, my lady. I'll fill your stomach first, and then I'll fill other things," I smiled and jiggled my eyebrows suggestively, leading her toward the kitchen. "Pasta sound good?" I asked while I rummaged through the fridge. "Sure," said Alá

    Aláine's Point of View Over the next three days, we practised shifting between human and wolf, human and Lycan, wolf and Lycan, and back again. My shifting time was much faster, although Kristof was incredibly fast at shifting forms. He'd had many years of practice, and it showed. At least it didn't hurt as badly. Unfortunately, the pain hadn't entirely diminished. I had my walking and running down pat. My tail was acting like a rudder, and I could run and turn without falling over. Kristof said I was a natural at it. I thought my progress was due to being turned as an adult. While it took wolf-born children much longer, knowing the science behind it helped. Now we were going for my first official run with my mate. I would be handing over the reins to Calliope, and Kristof would allow Connery to have control during this time. Kristof was very explicit with Calliope and Connery that this was a run only, not a mating. "Why?" I asked. "What's the difference?" "If our wolves mate, the
