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) Ch. 89 - Coming Home Pt. 1
Kristof's Point of View Wrapping my arms around Aláine, I was relieved to have her back. In such a short amount of time, she had become my world's moon and stars. I never wanted to let her go. Ever. "Seeing you again is a sight for sore eyes," I said, nuzzling into her neck, smelling her unique scent. "I tried to escape him. I tried so hard, but he was too strong for me," she cried. "Aláine. It's okay, and well... he was too strong until you shifted," I reminded her. "Yes," she replied. Aláine's Lycan was spectacular. The only wolves with our colouring were members of the Royal Family. I didn't know why she would have the same colour. It's not because I was an Alpha or the Crown Prince. After all, my father was an Alpha and King. My mother had been human, just like Aláine, and she was not the same colouring. I made a mental note to ask Daphne about it. She was one of the witches aligned with my father. It was her directive that led me to the city to find Aláine, for which I was
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 90 - Coming Home Pt. 2
Aláine's Point of ViewWhen Kristof told me that Olivier was still alive, I wanted to know why. Then he told me that Olivier had changed sides. That I wasn't happy about it at all was an understatement.Knowing that both Viktor and Olivier were alive elicited feelings of anxiety. The fact that Olivier was in our custody and had surrendered didn't help. Staying alive was the obvious motive, and thinking about it, it was definitely an action based on self-preservation. However, what if it were part of another plan to abduct me again?"What are you going to do with him?" I asked Kristof.The answer to this question was critical to whether I could feel safe or not in the pack. I wasn't sure what to do if I didn't feel safe."I have a few choices," Kristof replied. "Letting him go isn't an option, nor is killing him since he surrendered. I could imprison him, but again, that is a last resort. From what I gather, Viktor is the first pack he has been in, and I would like the chance to rehabi
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 91 - Under Guard
Aláine's Point of View We arrived back at the packhouse just after midnight. There had been quite a few changes in the last two days. The first one was a security gate, still being constructed at the driveway's entrance. Two guards were standing by it, checking everyone as they came in. When we got to the top of the drive, some lighting had been installed alongside the house. It wasn't very bright, but due to my wolf senses, it didn't need to be. I could clearly see a guard walking around the outside of the house and some by the treelines. "There will be guards permanently at the gate and outside the packhouse from now on," explained Kristof. "I should have done this before." Kristof looked sad when he said the last part. I reached up and kissed him. "It wasn't your fault," I said. "Viktor would have found a way, and no doubt, more people would have been injured or even killed." "We'll never know," he replied, "but I am not taking any chances." What surprised me was when the gua
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 92 - Mates Pt. 1
Zara's Point of View Aláine and Kristof were back! As soon as I heard them downstairs, Axel and I came running. Callie and Kieran had heard them as well and joined us. My bestie was back! Axel went totally apeshit when he saw her. He'd been missing her so much. Although I had looked after him, walked him and fed him, he was totally Aláine's dog. When she gave him pats, his tail wagged so much that everyone had to get out of the way. "You're home," I cried as I tackled her in a bear hug. "You're finally home! Are you okay? Do you need anything? What can I do?" "Slow down, Zara," she said, laughing. I guess I did get carried away a little. "To answer those questions," Aláine began, "I am alright but tired. I need food, a shower and sleep that involves Kristof hugging me." "Like I wasn't going to do that anyway," he grumbled. "And other than seeing you, Zara, there is nothing I need you to do. Noah will be here soon," she said. "I can do the food," said Frederic. "Anyone else hu
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 93 - Mates Pt. 2
Noah's Point of View Finally, we were home. It had been a horrible two days with Kristof out of action and me in charge. I was so glad I wasn't Alpha. Didn't want the responsibility. It was hard enough being second in command without having the added pressure of being totally in charge. This incident had shown me that. Aláine was now home, and Kristof was calm and collected as an Alpha should be. Zayde arrived just moments before I did, and I met him just outside the front door. I gathered that he was going to check on Aláine and me. I had been in the wars a bit lately and looked forward to not getting injured again for a long time. I could certainly do without getting shot, especially by silver bullets. At least I would heal quickly. Everyone was in the kitchen when I got inside, including the new Luna Guard that Michel had arranged for Aláine. Zayde gave Aláine the once over, and luckily she wasn't hurt. Then he went and checked me. Since the bullet wasn't in me anymore, there was
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 94 - Back In His Arms
Aláine's Point of View Kristof led me upstairs, and I have to say that I was looking forward to this. There was no other man I wanted to be with other than him. My mate. Viktor could never have measured up. Kristof was far more of a man than Viktor would have ever been. Even before I turned and became a werewolf, I couldn't stand Viktor. No woman wants to be taken from their mate and threatened with a forced mating. It was akin to rape. Once I shifted for the first time, I felt this hideous rage and hatred towards him. It was so intense I wanted to kill him. Now I was here with Kristof, where I wanted to be, and heading towards the bedroom. I was excited. It felt like a lifetime since I had last laid next to him. Even if nothing else happened tonight, being able to hold him and be held in his arms would suffice. I felt almost shy when we entered the room. Kristof was still holding my hand, leading me towards the bed. When we sat down, he shucked off his socks and shoes before retak

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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 103 - Becoming Luna Pt. 1
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
The Alpha's Mate (Book 1: Finding His Luna) Ch. 101 - I have A Job To Do Pt. 3
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
