The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 81 - I Hate Him! Pt. 1
Aláine's Point of ViewThe following day I woke to the chinking sound of a plate being put down on the bedside table. With no door to the room, I felt vulnerable and not just from Viktor. There were other men here as well, and I couldn’t trust any of them. To add to my woes, I hadn't slept well at all."I am going to remove the cuffs off one of your hands. Remember not to struggle, or you will go hungry," said Viktor as he reached for my right hand.Knowing I needed to eat, I acquiesced to his demands. Breakfast was lukewarm porridge with milk. Edible and filling, though not tasty as it wasn't sweetened. Still, it was better than nothing. I almost said thank you, but I didn't want to be polite. He didn't deserve any graciousness. Not even a thanks."Now, Anya, where are your manners?" Viktor asked.What? His mate's name was Anya; I knew that much, but had he forgotten my name?"Oh, Anya, I love you so much," he gushed."When you shift, we will be together again."Holy shit! He has gon

Aláine's Point of View Later that night From the bed, I could make out the perfect glowing orb in the sky that signified the full moon. The moon's brilliant white juxtaposed against mottled greys drowned out any starlight leaving the sky various shades of the darkest blue I'd ever seen. Its beauty was calling to something deep inside me, and my body responded without thought or control. I felt like I was in a sort of trance. My arms pulled against the cuffs that shackled me to the bed. Every part of my body felt uncomfortable and strange. It was not long before the pain started, and I tried so hard not to cry out but failed. Suddenly, I felt one of the bones in my legs snap, and my cries became screams. "Kristof, my mate!" I screamed in my mind. "Where are you? I need you! You said you'd be here with me! Kristof!" The other screams brought Viktor running into the room. "Well, well, well," he drawled. "Fuck off, you mongrel!" I screamed back at him, but he didn't leave. More b
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 83 - I'm Coming!
Kristof's Point of ViewTwo Days AgoAláine had only been gone for about 24 hours now, but it felt like a week or longer. In the short time I had known her, she had become my moon and my stars. She was my everything, and I was madly in love with her. Such was the Goddess-given mate bond. I had to laugh because my father used the same endearment with my mother. Still, I could not imagine her not being a part of my life, and now she was gone. It was my job to keep her safe. I had failed her. Noah had taken over running the day-to-day business of the pack while I spent my time looking over maps to figure out where she might be held. I had my scouts out trying to find any trace of Viktor and his henchmen. So far, there was no information or sight of them."Kristof! Can you hear me? Please come find me! Please! I need you! Kristof!""What?" I exclaimed out loud. "Aláine! Where are you?"Just that moment, Noah came running into the room."Kristof, are you okay?" he asked."I heard Aláine c
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 84 - I Want Out!
Olivier's Point of View It was dark now, and a bright full moon was peeking through the cloud cover. It didn't actually matter if it were cloudy or not, for it was a full moon regardless. The effects would be the same. If any human had been turned into a werewolf, a full moon would be the first night they would shift. After that, a werewolf could change at will, with practise, of course. Tonight would be Aláine's first shift. Unfortunately for her, it would be here with Viktor and not with her real mate. I don't care what Viktor says; Kristof is her mate, not him. "Aaaahhhhhh!!!!!!" It came from upstairs. Viktor came running out of his office, through the hallway, and upstairs towards Aláine's room. I knew that she had started her shift. It would be a while before she had completely shifted, but it would be painful. It always was the first time. Deep down, I felt worried for her. I had been from the moment we'd taken her. That worry had just cemented when I saw how Viktor was ar
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 85 - It Has Begun
Viktor's Point of ViewIt was dark now, and the full moon would be coming out soon. Then it would be time for Aláine to shift for the first time. While waiting for that, I sat in my office trying to work on the pack finances. To be honest, I was not particularly good at it, so I was not getting very far with it. I really need to turn an accountant, someone who would be very useful to the pack.I could hear the men shouting at the television, which meant they were in the lounge watching sports and probably drinking. I didn't begrudge their downtime, but we would need to consider maintaining defence and protocol at some stage. So much to arrange and do and not a lot of decent help."Aaaahhhhhh!!!!!!"Aláine was screaming. Her shifting had begun. I ran upstairs as quickly as possible, so I could be with her at this most precious time. It was also her most vulnerable time, and I intended to take advantage of her and make the most of the situation as possible.When I entered the room, Alái
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 86 - A Grave Error
Viktor's Point of View Aláine growled and moved around the bed toward me. She was wobbly on her legs. I was not surprised as she had never been a Lycan or wolf before, which was different from walking as a human. "You are not my mate!" she shrieked again. "Tonight, you die!" She continued walking toward me, still unsteadily, but there was no mistaking her intent. It was all going wrong. What had I done? It suddenly hit me. My wolf was right; I have made a grave error. Aláine was not a standard size or colour for a werewolf. She was a royal. How a human became royalty was beyond me. When she and Kristof mated, the mating process must have done something to her. Whatever it was, I doubted I could change who she was mated to. Now to top it off, Aláine was not merely angry; she was enraged. As unsteady on her legs as she was, she was still advancing toward me. I had no doubt that if she caught me, she would attempt to kill me. Aláine might be a brand new wolf with the coordination of
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 87 - Fighting Back
Aláine's Point of ViewFinally, after what seemed like hours, I shifted into my Lycan form. I had never been in that much pain before and hoped it would get easier on subsequent shifts. To make matters worse, I was stuck here with Viktor and his men.Viktor was responsible for taking me away from Kristof, and when I changed, my Lycan knew this. Both wolf and Lycan were angry as hell and wanted his blood. I wasn't going to argue with either of them. If they happened to kill Viktor, then I could deal with it.When I finally shifted into my Lycan, Viktor also shifted and proceeded to tell me, "Come to me, my love. Let us be mated forever."That was just the wrong thing to say to my wolfy pair. Their rage filtered through, and it added to mine. I was totally enraged now and showed him my sharp new teeth."You are not my mate!" I snarled at him.I started stalking him with intent."You are not my mate!" I roared at him again. "Tonight, you die!"Lurching forwards on my legs, I felt like a
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 88 - Rescue
Kristof's Point of ViewIt was a surprise when Olivier turned up and basically surrendered to us. I wasn't sure what to do with him, but I had him stay back in chains and under guard while we approached the house. The information he gave us helped us immensely. Thanks to him, we knew exactly how many men Viktor had and where they were. We also now knew the location of the bedroom where he kept Aláine. This would make it quicker to get to her. I could feel her pain, but I knew she hadn't shifted just yet. Nevertheless, it wouldn't be long. It also wouldn't be long until I was reunited with my love. I didn't feel whole without her.After shifting to Lycan form and fanning out around the house, we moved forward reasonably quickly. Before we had reached the doors, I could smell and sense her. She had just shifted. From what my Lycan could detect, she had transformed straight to Lycan form herself. That didn't happen that often unless a person was under duress or hardship. I guess Aláine

The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Epilogue
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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 105 - Becoming Luna Pt. 3
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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 104 - Becoming Luna Pt. 2
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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 102 - A Better Option
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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 100 - I have A Job To Do Pt. 2
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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 99 - First Run
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
