The Alpha's Misplaced Mate Hundred nine
Alexander as expected became more on edge when Melody said the girls were also going to a club. But once again, Melody was sure Alexander could send a body guard to follow her in and keep her safe. Clubs were public, full of people and she was going to be with a bunch of friends.After a very long conversation with Guillermo where Melody could only hear Alexander ask question after question until with a resigned sigh he said it seemed safe enough. Melody was bouncing on her toes as she stepped over to kiss her giant mate. Baby steps. Now that she had better idea of exactly what was the start of his anxiety she thought that the more she proved to him that she was safe, that she could go out the better it would be. She shouldn't have let him restrict her movements so much, she realized looking back that she should have tried to still have some of her own life. But she was still young even now, and had less than a year to get used to the paranormal world before she was mated and pregnan

Alexander left his first counseling session feeling better than he thought he would. He hadn't had a major breakthrough or revelation. Just having a safe place to talk about what was on his mind, to try and figure out all that wasn't right in his tangled feelings. It had helped. Now that he was doing it with purpose, to be better for Melody. He was motivated to try like he hadn't been before when a counseling session had been mandatory.Looking back he recognised his youthful arrogance, his inability to move past outdated ideals. His father hadn't shied away from seeking help when he needed it. It was only Alexander and his need to try and please all members of the pack that had led him down this path. But a lot of those he was trying to maintain face for, disparaged Melody because she was human. Why would he let such narrow minded assholes dictate any part of his life? He knew better. Melody deserved better and he was now resolved to do better.He was eagerly waiting for the time to

Melody's tummy was full of fluttering butterflies after she said good bye to her daughter and Alexander and followed Delia to her car. Cyrus had a tag in Melody's bag to help him follow at a distance so Delia didn't get nervous. Melody hadn't really gone out with friends since before she moved to Maine and met Alexander, and since then all her socializing was with wolves at their own, private events. Melody was anxious that she would embarrass herself or not fit in at the club.She was worrying the inside of her cheek with her teeth, when Delia chimed with her happy pleasant voice, "You don't need to be nervous, we'll just head back to my place, get changed and ready and then we can head back into the city, grab dinner and then head over to Ruby's.""I'm not nervous" Melody lied, her voice light and airy, hiding how tense she was inside. Delia gave her a side eye that let Melody know her friend knew she was lying.Delia kept the happy banter up on the relatively short drive to her hom

Caroline was very kind as she gushed over how pretty both girls looked, while she put on her own coat to drive the girls back into the city. Delia was going to take Melody out for sushi, another thing she had never tried before. Alexander was a mostly meat with a side of more meat kind of guy. He ate what Melody made when she did cook, especially now with the kids at the table too. But falafel, fish and salads were not high on his list of favorite foods. Which was unfortunate as those were Melody's top meals. She was a true omnivore. Mates were often opposite, to bring out the best in each other he had said with a shrug as he begrudgingly muched down a salad.Melody pulled her jacket tighter around herself as Caroline drove away in the small luxury car. Leaving Delia and Melody outside a very posh looking sushi restaurant. Delia could feel Melody's anxiety, and was immediately beside her friend, hooking her fingertips just over Melody's and encouraged her to follow her inside. Trying

Melody had seen the familiar little uninteresting Kia base model car in the parking lot of Ruby's building as they bundled into the cab, and knew Cyrus was right behind them as they headed to their next destination. Melody was a little glad to have the grumpy wolf around in case anything went wrong. She was doing her best to ignore her fears that lingered just below the surface. Once you've been kidnapped, only a hundred meters from safety it's hard to forget that danger could be anywhere ever again.The girls were dropped off on a nondescript street downtown. Most of the block occupied by a very functional parking garage and old industrial looking buildings. Minnie had Rena by the hand as she nearly ran down to the mouth of a side street, Ruby had Delia and Melody linked by each of her elbows as she strode, confident on her tall heels making her tower higher than she already was after the happy couple.Everyone carefully made their way down the stairs of the side alley to a red door,

Alexander watched Melody with rapt attention. Her eyes were locked on the tiny domme on the stage. She looked very small, even on the towering heels. The domme was wearing a lace eye mask, very much like the one Melody had worn to the Halloween dance. A particularly fond memory for Alexander. He wondered if she still had it somewhere in her costume closet.Melody's face and the bond between them made him wonder what was going on in his girl's head. She looked and felt like she had in the weeks they spent studying hard for her to test out early of highschool. So she could put that part of her life behind her. Not exactly the kind of mood he expected from her at a sexy show, and a rather steamy one at that. Not that he had much experience with them. But he knew Melody had never. Maybe his little kitty wanted to try some new games. He could almost feel his ass start to shake as Flint decided he liked that idea very very much and wanted to wag his tail.Alexander swiftly suppressed those

Melody awoke with the worst headache of her life. What a night she had had though she thought as she tried to get her head to stop spinning and her stomach to stop rolling. She physically felt terrible, but she was so happy. She checked her phone. There were messages from everyone. Including two hour check ins from Delia indicating she was having the best weekend of her life with the tall dark and nearly unbelievably attractive man she had left with.I was glad she was safe and enjoying herself. Minnie and Rena seemed perfect for each other, and even Ruby was madly and perfectly in love with her boyfriend Mark. It had been a perfect night out. She knew Alexander's sisters had been ready to pick up the kids early. That Alexander had a meeting with the youth group mid morning, and almost everyone would be busy until after lunch time one way or another.She dragged herself from bed, seeing it was already nine in the morning and she was running behind. She let herself enjoy a few minutes

Melody ensured all her plans were in place. Spent a couple hours with her children over midday. Until Ansley needed her nap, and Raven and Diana happily took the kids to Diana's private cabin for a night of being spoiled by grandma and their aunts Wren and Raven.Melody loved raising kids on a wolf pack. There were dozens and dozens of kids of all ages all the time. Endless aunts and uncles and friends to watch and care for children. It was real community living, and it was Melody's favorite thing. She had grown up the only child of a hard working southern California Lawyer and real estate agent who enjoyed their jobs much more than their families. Melody had been so lonely, never quite able to be cool enough for the kids around her to want to be her friend.She smiled as she watched her children go, Ansley falling asleep on her aunt's shoulder, clutching a hand knit blankie in her tiny fist. Sleeping just as easily as she would on Melody's shoulder. Able to feel the love radiating fr

Josephine and the elite teams did exactly what they had set out to do. They had moved so efficiently that they had knocked out most of the command structure entirely before the hyenas had a chance to even sound an alarm to warn the others that their doom was coming.Any who did not actively fight, were given the choice to end their days there and now or move semi willingly to an enclave Josephine had been working on for far longer than Alexander had realized. To Josephine, Melody was just another target, one of far too many in a larger pattern. One that Josephine had been working to end on her own long before Melody had even been born.Alexander was in awe as Guillermo filled him in on the progress during a rather social seeming jog several weeks after the incident; which was all Alexander could bring himself to say about it all. Still working on it with his therapist. But things were going better. He was focusing on being a dad, and decided to take up carpentry. If he was going to li

Melody drove up to the familiar house, the smell of burnt clutch heavy in the cabin of the vehicle. Melody didn't know how to drive a manual, let alone an old truck with a heavy gear shift and broken power steering. Thankfully it didn't matter. The truck just had to get her here. Looking all normal, and human and alone. If the truck had to stay behind because Melody had wrecked the transmission on the relatively short easy drive over, no harm done. Flint would carry her to Alec's pack lands and virtual sanctuary until they could arrange to get back to their own home.The home looked significantly worse than she was prepared for. The picket fence she had admired that first day hadn't been painted in a while when she had left, and hadn't been touched since. Many boards were missing or broken. Beverly must have hated it, she had been a realtor and she was good at it. At making homes look good enough that people wanted to live in the warm homey environments she created. Looks were often d

"You don't have to do this yourself, Guillermo and I can take care of it.." Alexander pleaded with Melody. That evening as she insisted on preparing everything to travel across the country to execute Frank. Throwing random clothes into a suitcase while she stomped around the room on feet far too heavy for someone of her size."Yes I do!" she was nearing hissing at him as she insisted strongly. She paused, packing the suitcases, "I need to do this, he hurt my whole family Alexander. He needs to pay for it. I need him to pay for it. To know he brought his end on himself, I want him to know." Her words were so heavy with with such a finality to them, that Alexander, never able to really say no to her finally gave in. She could come on the mission, only if the shrink and doctor cleared her first. After this afternoon's panic attack, and early pregnancy he was sure she wouldn't get the clearance from the doctor. She's pregnant, no doctor would let her go out to murder their step father.He

Alexander and Melody spent their time with their kids and Diana. Letting Alexander's mother take care of everything while Melody and Alexander played on the floor with their kids, ate snacks, and just enjoyed the peace of their family. Raven was stomping around in her room out back, apparently a nap was not coming easily. "I guess it's not all she hoped it would be?" Alexander ventured softly while James was cuddling in his lap, almost asleep with a picture book in his hands."She has wanted this all her life, maybe dropping a vampire sighting on her this early wasn't the best idea." Diana said, softly, her voice like a lullaby as James drifted off to sleep. Melody was just returning from putting Ansley down for a nap, and smiled at seeing James limp in his fathers arms. She came over, gently and carefully picking the little boy up who snuggled into his mother's body as she picked him up, and took him to have a nap as well. Giving Alexander some time alone with his mom."Alpha doesn'

The next morning it was confirmed by Guillermo that Frank and Robert had almost certainly had something to do with Beverly's murder. Randy was only innocent of this particular crime because he was already in prison for a statutory rape charge. A combination of wire transfers from offshore accounts, messages on burner phones, and finally a time line established when Guillermo searched recent security and surveillance cameras around the small town where Melody and Alexander had met. Trying to figure out what had happened and when.Beverly was a woman who liked routine he learned, and even though she couldn't find a job after she had been laid off, had tried to keep busy. She volunteered, working at the animal shelter some days, food bank on others. Spent an hour or so in the town library applying for jobs before hitting the grocery store before heading home to cook for her family. She didn't seem to interact much with anyone in the town. She hadn't carried a cell phone in over a year be
The Alpha's Misplaced Mate Hundred Twenty Three
The first couple photographs showed three women, roughly Melody's age, nothing else in common between them. They were all of different heritage, but all were very dead, by the similar ragged horizontal slash across their throats. No metal blade had opened their throats, that was the mark of a clawed hand. Then there had been two men, Melody didn't know them, but her heart filled with sadness as she realized these were all probably the dead mates to alphas. Who in turn according to Alexander research, never knew their mates were taken and murdered, instead thought they had been rejected. That each of these people had been stolen and their lives ended, causing echos of heartbreak for so many people, filled Melody with guilt that twice she had been taken, and twice she escaped mostly unharmed. She didn't know why she was ok in her home now, and these people weren't.Alexander was just finishing up with Guillermo, his own worry at a new level with the news from his head of security. He dr

This was how his life should have been. Raven would be unbearable if she ever learned that she really had been right all along. She was born for this, Alexander wasn't. He didn't feel any guilt at all now. As he laid Melody in a rocking chair so he could run a bath for her, he checked on his mother as she did the same for Ansley.James was staying with Robin and her family tonight. James adored his older cousins, and seeing how other people lived their everyday lives. He was a nosey kid, Alexander hoped he didn't drive his very controlled sister insane overnight. James was more in tune with his grandmother or Lark. Almost like Robin could feel his worry, Alexander's phone buzzed with a notification, he checked and saw a video of a wide grinning James holding a Mario Kart Steering wheel in his small hands, his face aglow with joy as he tried to play with his older cousins, who were laughing at his eager attempts to widely steer around the course. The sound of generations, and blended f

Melody awoke with the most unwelcome deja vu. The particular heavy and slow feeling of waking up after having been knocked unconscious. Judging by the rhythmic pounding and pain radiating from the back of her head, it had been physical this time instead of chemical. She didn't know if that was better or worse, she still felt sick and nauseated, and the headache was worse, but her body didn't feel as clumsy.The overwhelming wrong feeling had diminished, but things were certainly not right. But at least she was able to think now. She looked around, lovely another cement room from floor to ceiling, a single caged in bulb in the ceiling for light, and a clean, if uncomfortable pallet underneath her. Things smelled clean, which at least wasn't offensive and an improvement on the first kidnapping. Melody wasn't scared this time, she was boiling under the surface like a secret lake of lava.Yup, she had been kidnapped again. Ansley! Where was her daughter? Who had taken her. Melody knew she

The next week was perfect, better than ever before. Alexander was scheduled to see his counsellor at least twice a week, he was getting Raven up to speed on current pack issues and general local politics. He felt lighter. Like himself in a way he had missed without even realising he had been missing something at all.Melody's days were a little more boring. Delia had texted her on schedule all through the weekend through until Sunday night. Then she had called to let Melody know she was taking a week off school and going on vacation with the man she had gone home with on Friday night; and was still with. Melody had worried about her friend, but after talking on the phone, Delia was safe, and happy, and excited. So Melody wished her friend well. Maybe the dark tall brooding man Delia was with was a shifter too, and Delia was his mate. Melody gnawed on her lower lip wondering how she would even try to ask her friend if that was the case, without letting too much slip if Delia wasn't in
