When I woke, I felt someone stroking my head. I groaned and looked over to see Brody sat on a chair next to the bed, his hands running through my hair as he glared at the wall. "Brody?" I asked, he had a few cuts on his face; but nothing that wouldn't heal quickly.Brody finally realised I was awake and turned his attention to me. "Hey baby" he gave me a sad smile as he leant down and brushed his lips over my forehead."What's wrong? What happened?" I asked, sensing his stress and upset. I whipped my head around the room a few times, realising we were alone."We lost a few wolves, but we came out better" he sighed heavily, I could tell he was blaming himself for the deaths of the wolves in our pack. "I'm sorry" I whispered. He gave me a sad smile, before he feel into his glaring at the wall routine. "Brody" I whimpered, I hated seeing him so upset. He glanced at me as I pulled myself onto his lap. He pulled me close to him as he buried his head in my neck, he sighed heavily."It's no
I woke up to the feel of someone kissing my neck. I was tired, but I couldn't help but smile at how amazing it felt. I knew it was Brody, because of the little shockwaves that ran through my skin. "Brody" I moaned happily, as I felt his arms pull me onto his chest."Morning baby" Brody's husky voice sounded next to my ear, before his teeth nibbled on my lob. I still hadn't opened my eyes yet, It was too blissful to even do so. I could hear, and feel, his heart beating underneath me as I cuddled closer into his bare chest."Brody" I moaned again, a dopey smile on my face, as I squirmed on his chest, inhaling his sweet scent. Brody chuckled as his hands ran down my body and rested on my hip. "My mate" I mumbled tiredly, "mine"."Damn right I am" Brody chuckled, "and you're all mine"."Brody" I groaned and he chuckled again, forcing his chest to move, which in turn caused my entire body to move. "Brody stop moving" I pouted childishly, my entire body plagued with fatigue. He laughed aga
I grabbed her collar and brought her even closer. "Now listen hard and listen good you little fucker, because I'm only going to say this once" I told her calmly, my face meres inches from hers. "My father was Alpha Samuel of Prima Moon Pack" I told her and some of the other pack wolves gasped. "And people say I may take after my mother in the looks department, but there is something I inherited from my father. His cruelty. So I swear to god you cross me again and I will not think twice before I hurt you and let me tell you something. I'm going to enjoy every little scream and whimper that comes out of your pretty little mouth" I told her with a smirk, "understood "Now I suggest you fuck off before I change my mind and kill you now" I growled at her and I pushed her back. She hit the floor, her eyes looking up at me in hatre "You little -- "Jessica enough" Brody's voice came from behind me as he stalked into the room. He was breathing hard and he only wore a pair of shorts. I assume
"You're here to talk?" Brody laughed bitterly, anger instilled in his voice. I frowned at his tone; it unsettled both my wolf and I. I cuddled closer into his side, burying my face in his warm chest."Yes I am" Reece nodded, looking between Brody and I in amusement. Reece was taller than Brody with dirty blonde hair, his eyes a dull grey. He screamed 'intimidation and power', if I didn't have an Alpha bloodline or an Alpha mate I may have feared him. "You've found your little mate I see" he chuckled, Brody gave him a feral growl in reply as his grip tightened on me."Do not look at my mate!" Brody screamed at the top of his voice. Reece chuckled as I saw some of our pack wolves cringe at his tone; he sounded like a true Alpha."She's cute" Reece laughed, looking at me cockily. "If you're into innocent virgins" he smirked."Do not talk about my mate's virginity" Brody snarled. If the situation wasn't so tense and formal I may have laughed at his words. But as I saw Brody's dark eyes a
'Do you mind if you sort out the arrangements for the mourning ceremony?" Brody asked me and I nodded no. I could tell he didn't want to think about the deaths any more, he was beating himself up about them. "All our traditions, schedules, pack members and the files on the wolves that died are here" he said, handing me a pile of documents.I smiled at him before I took them and walked to the couch on the other side of the office. "Thank you" Brody smiled at me as I sat down and put the documents next to me."No problem" I told him truthfully, giving him a genuine smile. Both my wolf and I just wanted to make him happy, at that point it was all we cared about. Brody turned back to his work as I began reading over the notes he had given me.We worked for hours, only muttering a few words to each other ever so often. I didn't realise how hard it was organising a mourning ceremony. I had to set a date and time, make a schedule of the order of events, work out what we needed, work out how
The pack was finally taken off lockdown a week later; I was glad. Since Reece's attack, Brody had placed a curfew on the pack wolves and a lockdown on the untrained pups. Unfortunately, as I wasn't eighteen yet, I had been placed in the latter group. And being the Luna meant that I was on double lockdown.Whereas everyone under eighteen wasn't allowed to leave the territory, I wasn't allowed to leave the pack house without Brody's permission and at least two pack wolves with me. Even though Lennon and Zeke were both over eighteen, they had been placed as my guards meaning they had practically been on lockdown too. We were all itching to get out of the territory.So when Brody announced to the pack that the lockdown was off and the curfew, which had been ten o clock, had been pushed back to midnight we all sighed in relief. "Thank god" I sighed dramatically, plopping myself down at the kitchen table. Zeke, Lennon, and a few other male pack wolves chuckled at me. I had realized that not
I went under the surface of the clear blue water; still fully dressed. My feet hit the bottom of the small lagoon and I pushed off it and back to the surface. I came out of the water and coughed slightly. Brody stood on the edge of the pool with an amused smile on his face as I pushed my wet curls from my face.I leaned back; floating on the surface of the water and smirked at Brody. "Now that was just mean" I stated, with a smile as I looked around the clearing. It was beautiful. It had lush green grass with a row of tall trees circling the edge. On the left side, there were rows of rose bushes and small white flowers. And on the right side, there was the large pool where I was."It's beautiful here" I breathed out as I looked around; taking in every aspect."You're beautiful," Brody said quietly. I turned to look at him, he was staring closely at me. I didn't reply, I just rolled my eyes at his comment. "Don't roll your eyes Allison" he snapped, "you are beautiful, despite what you
"Right you have exactly two minutes to give me my phone back right now" Mason snapped at me, trying to get closer to me."Stay back or I'll send it" I warned him, holding his phone up higher. He paused in my bedroom door; he didn't look happy with me."You won't dare," he said, taking a step into my room."Try me" I warned, taking another step back. He growled at me; he really didn't look happy to me. I gave him my best smile and he narrowed his eyes at me. "I'm serious, Mase" I said, fighting off a smile. "You let me go on the date with Danny, and I won't send the text to your Beta telling him off the erotic dream you had about him last night" I said, a small giggle leaving my mouth."Alli please no. I'm not gay, I hardly know Linton. I need his respect when he's my Beta" he moaned, running a hand through his shaggy hair; he really needed a haircut."Let me go on the date, Mason" I stated simply with a shrug. He growled again, his patience was wearing thin."It's not like he's your m
Brody returned a few minutes later wearing a black suit. His eyes zoned in on me, his eyes going up and down my exposed body. Unlike a few months before I didn’t squirm away out of his gaze. I still wasn’t comfortable with his outright staring, but I was getting better – he was making me more confident in my own skin. Brody cleared his throat and looked away. “As much as I really don’t want to leave you here, when you’re naked, but I was an hour late for the meeting yesterday. I can’t be late again” he sighed before bending down next to the bathtub. “You look after yourself and our pup”. He kissed me quickly before standing up and leaving. Once I finished in the bath, I got out and changed quickly. “Alli?” I heard a familiar voice from downstairs. I smiled as I bounded downstairs to find a group of people inspecting the broken tables and chairs in the lounge. Mason, Corey, Jessica and Dylan were all waiting for me. “Hey” I smiled at me. “Finally we’ve been here forever” Jessica exc
There was a long moment of stillness between Brody and I. I stayed sitting on the bathroom floor and he stayed standing in front of the basin; positive pregnancy test in hand. Brody was the first one to break the silence. “Are you crying because you’re unhappy?” he asked me, slight pain in his eyes.“What? No” I exclaimed, jumping to my feet. “I’m crying because I’m scared Brody. I’m so scared” I told him, my bottom lip quivering as I fought back another swarm of tears.“But you are happy?” he asked, making no attempt to move forward towards me; so I stood still, wrapping my arms around myself.“I want your child Brody, I do. But I’m just scared I’m going to fuck it up. I don’t know the first thing about being a mother, and you don’t know the first thing about being a father. I’m worried that we – mostly I – are going to fuck the baby up…just like my parents did to me and my brothers”.Brody placed the test back into the sink and took a step forward. He stopped in front of me – I quic
I woke up sore and squished against a naked man. I groaned loudly trying to get out of Brody’s death grip. “Brody” I complained, my face pressed against his solid chest. Brody moaned in his sleep and nuzzled close into me. “Brody” I yelled louder and his eyes shot up. He sat up instantly, his eyes running over the area for any sign of danger.“What? What’s wrong?” Brody shouted; his eyes full of worry. I giggled at him, happy his hands released me from their tight grip.“Sorry” I chuckled, “you were squishing me. I’m sorry”. There was a pause as Brody fully woke himself up before he turned back to me.“Sorry Baby” he muttered – through a yawn – before he pulled me back to his side. “I love you” he mumbled as he pecked my forehead. “You look beautiful right now”.“Sure I do” I said in a sarcastic tone, rolling my eyes as I tried to move away from him to go to the bathroom. Brody held onto me tighter with a playful growl of warning.“You look amazing. You’re all sweaty and hot” he growl
A week later both packs knew of the upcoming merger; some were happy, some were not. A lot of Aplin Moon members were opposed – not because they had anything against Brody and I, but simply because they didn’t want to move.Brody had decided – as the new owner of Aplin Moon’s territory – to sell the area and buy more land near us, extending our land for the new members. He had been busy talking to builders and contractors to build another three pack houses and another pack village. Brody had extremely under estimated just how big our pack would become with the merger.I had been without my mate for a week and it was killing me. I was; emotional, lonely, constantly on edge and incredibly sexually frustrated. Brody and I had talked twice a day, but it was still not enough to settle either of our wolves. He was a lot more on edge than me, what with all the stress he was on, and everything seemed to agitate him.So when Thursday rolled around and Charlie returned to the pack, I packed up
My heart was pounding with both nervousness and excitement. Despite everything, I was my father’s daughter. I loved to fight. And as much as I hated to admit it to myself, I loved to kill. The feeling of exerting my power over others in the most animalistic way was a thrill that I couldn’t help but love. I didn’t like to show it, but my wolf was cruel and vicious. After all I she was an Alpha.I was shifted into my large reddish-brown wolf, running to meet the other people who would fight beside me, when I reached the left border the smell of unfamiliar wolves filled my nostrils. I skidded to a stop behind a tree and pulled on Brody’s shirt that I grabbed before leaving his office. It came to my knees and made me look even tinier.When I stepped out from the tree, Zeke flanked me on one side while Lennon occupied the other. There were about twenty-five wolves from my pack planning to fight, but only five of them were trained fighters. From Aplin Moon there were about twenty fighters,
By the time I managed to make up with Lennon – after he had screamed at me when I trashed Brody’s car – it was Tuesday. It was he who finally swallowed his pride and apologised, let’s face it I would never be the one to be the ‘bigger man’ as people often put it. My pride was way too important to me – it was a horrible trait I got from my Alpha blood. My brothers were no different.Tuesday was a hard day for me, because I knew that the next day Brody planned to attack Aplin Moon. Brody remained confident that we had the upper hand, but it didn’t settle the butterflies in my stomach. At one point I had been so nerves I had thrown up my breakfast; Zeke was not happy with me, he claimed it was ‘a waste of the delicious pancakes he had slaved over’. I simply flipped him the bird.“So what do you want to do today?” Lennon asked after I brushed my teeth again and re-joined them in the lounge.“Nothing that will stress Brody out, he doesn’t need that right now” I mumbled in reply as I lay do
I continued to shout at my idiotic brothers, but it seemed they both have some unspoken agreement to ignore me. “I swear to all the gods” I screamed as I followed them into a clearing. Brody wouldn’t be happy with me because the clearing was not part of our territory, but that was the last thing on my mind at that moment. “Are you both out of your freaking minds?”I curled my fists together – fighting the urge to beat them both up myself for their colossal stupidity. When they finally stop in the middle of the clearing, the fighters had to hold me back to stop me from running to them. I knew one of my brothers was about to die; and that did not sit well with me.“Just please stop it” I screeched in a high pitched and strained voice. I was over whelmed with emotions; anger, worry and sadness. “Just stop” I said again, this time my voice a mere whisper lost in the morning wind. I was crying by that point – silent tears – as I watched my brothers square each other up. All my nightmares w
I never thought I’d see Brody cry, but as he looked over his prized Porsche, I swore I saw a tear in his eye. He took a deep breath, his hands shaking in anger slightly; his eyes not moving off his car. It was taking all my willpower not to snigger.The car was trashed. Scratches, dents and scrapes covered the paintwork of the car, and the bummer was hanging off at an odd angle as well as every window being smashed. To say Roderick and I had destroyed his car would have been an understatement. As soon as I told my brother what had happened he went crazy; thus the car.“I…you…huh?” Brody muttered to himself, his eyes not being able to leave the car. I looked behind where we stood – just outside the pack house – to see half the pack were watching with nervous expressions. They thought Brody was going to flip. I did too. In fact, I was waiting for it.Brody closed his eyes and took a deep breath before he turned to me. “Did you get hurt?” he asked me through a heavy breath; he was trying
“I know why I’m mad at you, but why are you mad at you?” I bravely asked.“Because I let my anger get the better of me. You seem to have this effect on me. You not only bring out the best in me, but also the worst. When I am around you I am; loving, caring and affectionate. But I am also; jealous, possessive and domineering”.“Don’t forget horny” I mumbled.“Yes and horny” Brody chuckled quietly. “But it can flip from one to the other” he sighed, heavily turning onto his side so he was facing me. I mirrored his movements so I was staring into his beautiful brown eyes. “Allison, I’m not a mind reader. If you are upset about something or angry about something you need to tell me. I won’t know if you don’t tell me”.“I love you” I blurted out, “but at the same time I also kind of want to punch you most of the time”.“Believe me the feeling is mutual Baby” he replied and an involuntary chuckle escaped my lips. “Can I ask you a question and you not freak out and we end up fighting again?”
