THOMAS I watch Tyson take off in my SUV with his mate, my Luna, injured and strapped into the passenger seat. Worry clearly written all over his face. I don’t have time to contemplate the ‘what ifs’ of her medical status. My Alpha needs me to do my job. I enter the property at the back stairwell. Before I ascend the steps, I investigate the door. It has definitely been tampered with; the lock is broken and the sensor disabled. Is that how the bomb got into the building circumventing our security systems? Why doesn’t this door have a better lock and alarm? *Niall,* I link to our Gamma and head warrior as I head for Tyson’s office, *We’ve had an attempt on the Alpha and Luna’s lives at The Tower this morning. I need you and one of your best teams, preferably one who has a background in explosives, on the 62nd floor of The Tower, ASAP.* *Yes Beta. Right away. But just to clarify, you said Luna, correct?* Niall asks. *Yes, I

TYSON I keep one ear on my mate while I am driving. Her heartbeat is slow but steady, her breathing is even. I think she is okay, at least temporarily; I keep telling myself this to keep the panic at bay because I can smell fresh blood. She is still bleeding from her headwound or one of the lacerations. Zeus is pacing frantically in my head, worry driving his animal instincts, urging me to mark her. I am fighting him for control and trying to calm him down by focusing on her being stable, despite the scent of blood. I drive up to the human run hospital and see Amanda and a few other hospital staff out front with a gurney, waiting for me. It was only a 10-minute drive, but it is nice to see some of our pack members ready to help their injured Luna. We’ve all eagerly anticipated her arrival, none more so than me. I pull to a stop and Amanda has the passenger door open immediately. “Has she regained consciousness at all, Mr. Evans?” Ugh, she called me Mr. Evans, that means some of thes

TYSON Once I’m in the waiting room, I see Adam walking in with a bag slung over his shoulder and a wide smile on his face. He is dressed in white skinny jeans with a rainbow zip-up sweatshirt and bright pink high tops. This man just screams PRIDE in the way he dresses when he’s off the clock. It makes me proud to have him as my Beta’s partner. He has never been afraid to be who he is, and that confidence has bled over into my lower ranking pack members. He has a positive personality that humans and shifters are drawn to. Rose will need his confidence and positivity to learn how to lead as our Luna. Adam walks up, bouncing in step. But his nostrils flare, and his smile fades as soon as he gets close enough to smell me. “Well, I smell why Thomas asked me to bring you clothes. You stink.” “A bomb went off in my office, Adam. Of course I stink.” “That isn’t why you stink, sir.” He glares at me as he hands me the bag. “Come with me.” I follow him down a hallway off the ER lobby. Then do

TYSON I look over at Patty as she walks into the room. She sees me and freezes in surprise. *Patty. It’s been a long time.* I link to her. *Yes, Alpha Tyson, it has.* She links back with attitude. She looks from my hand holding Rose’s, to me and then up to Rose. Patty’s face falls and goes pale at the realization that just hit her. *Shit. She’s your mate, isn’t she?* I don’t answer I just nod. *Fuck. Well, that sucks.* *Why is that, Patty?* I ask, anger lacing my inflection with a little of my aura leaking out. *Oh stop with the Alpha intimidation, Tyson. You don’t like me… that’s fine. You know what, let’s have this out and be done. Your mom died and your dad was broken hearted, but her death didn’t kill him. Just like my mate dying didn’t kill me. We both wanted to die. I can assure you of that. You have no idea what it is like having your mate die. How that feels. Yes, your father and I had a relationship. We didn’t love each other. We were not mates. We fucked. That is it. You

TYSON Move into the women’s shelter? Aww, hell no! “You will stay with me. I have tried for years to get her to move in with me, but she’s refused me each time. Smartest, most stubborn, stupidest, most frustrating, independent woman I’ve ever met!” Patty rants her frustrations. “I REFUSE to let her move you back to that damn shelter! In fact, you and I will handle the move this evening. I’m done asking, I’m just doing. I assume there won’t be much to bring, so I’m sure one carload will get it all. Did I assume correctly?” Patty asks. Infinity nods in confirmation. I just scoff. “Why would she need to do that? I’ll just move them in with me, they’ll eventually be with me anyway.” I feel like this is the better choice and Zeus is all for it. His tail is happily wagging in my head. Patty sighs and slaps her forehead in aggravation, “Oh Goddess, give me strength,” Patty whispers out to the ceiling. She sighs again, “She doesn’t know you, Tyson! You can’t just expect her to move in with

TYSON Maddie curls up under Rose’s right arm and starts to quietly tell her about her day, even though Rose can’t hear her. We all stay quiet and listen to her story. “Mama, I finally made a friend today. Her name is Jessica, and she is 10. She is really nice and she’s at Zeus for playing piano. Mr. Platt was out today, and they didn’t get us a sub, so we were told to all sit quietly and do work until our next class. I didn’t have any work to do because I’ve already worked ahead, so I pulled out one of the library books to read. The classroom door was left open, and I could hear the music floating down the hallway. I don’t know what made me do it, but I followed the sound. Jessica was in a music room and was playing so prettily, but with her eyes closed. I just sat on the floor next to the music room door and listened. When she stopped and saw me there listening, it startled her. Jessica screamed and fell off her bench. I was so scared she hurt herself, so I ran over to her. When I

ROSE My head is pounding and throbbing and it feels extremely heavy. My entire body hurts, but nothing is quite as bad as my chest. It is by far, the worst pain I have. It is so hard to breathe. And I can’t seem to move either of my arms. My left feels like it is tied up, but the right one has this nice warm tingling sensation moving up from my hand. It doesn’t feel tied up like the left, but like a weight is holding it down. Ugh, my eyes are heavy too. They don’t want to open up. I try repeatedly to open them. Over and over again, I try. Finally, they start to flutter. When I get them open, I am so exhausted from that effort. I am looking at an all-white drop-down ceiling that I don’t recognize. It is chilly in the room, and I can hear a beeping next to me. I look down-- fuuuuuck that hurts! I see I am in a bed with white sheets and a lightweight scratchy baby blue blanket. My left forearm is in a splint and propped up with pillows. To my left is a heart monitor machine and IV line

ROSE As I settle down from my painful cry, I realize it is Tyson who is touching me, and I pull his hand away. I look up at him and am startled at the look on his face. It is complete adoration and love, at least, I think that is what that is. I look away, seriously confused. “Thank you for letting me use your phone. I am sorry I yelled at you, I panicked when I realized what time it was, and my daughter wasn’t here with me.” “A mother’s worry. It is understandable and I do not, in any way, hold that against you, Rose. From what I have seen and from what Maddie has to say about you, you are a wonderful mother and are doing a fantastic job raising her.” He says with sincerity. Pride blooms in my chest at his words and I return my gaze to him, and I smile. His eyes widen for a moment and then he smiles back at me. God he’s handsome! We just sit like that for a few minutes, staring at each other. I’m absorbing his face when I come to my senses. Jeeee-zus Rose! He is your boss, snap ou

MADDIE—EPILOGUE THREE10 YEARS LATERI stand in the master bedroom of the newly renovated Alpha suite of Blue Meadow’s packhouse. Today is my 18th birthday and also the day I take my place as Alpha of my pack. I stare at myself in the full-length mirror and think about everything that has happened in the last decade to prepare me for this moment and the life I have ahead of me.I graduated from Zeus Academy at the age of 10. I attended college classes online through the University of Arizona. It wasn’t the Ivy League like everyone expected from me; those didn’t offer a self-paced program or enough online courses for me to get my degrees. I didn’t want to separate myself from my family to attend university, so I chose a less prestigious route that worked the best for me. I have zero regrets with my choice in schools.In eight years of education post-high school, I’ve earned four bachelor’s degrees, two master’s and one PhD. I’ve also studied diligently with Tyson on how to run a pack an

ROSE—EPILOGUE TWOIt’s been 6 months since I delivered Nolan into this world. He has grown like a damn weed and has become the center of our little universe. None of us can get enough of him and his baby scent.Both Tyson and I have retrofitted our offices to accommodate an infant including changing tables, swings, refrigerators, diapers, wipes, spit up rags and pacifiers galore. All the necessities for having an infant. And I can say, without a doubt, Nolan is the easiest going baby I’ve ever experienced. He rarely cries and he’s always happy, as long as he’s being held. He loves skin to skin contact, so much that he rarely wears any clothes. Mads and I always wear spaghetti strap shirts when we’re holding him, and Tyson just takes his own shirt off.It was hilarious when we first figured out that he likes skin so much, Tyson walking around the packhouse shirtless. Granted no one said anything to him about it, but I had the hardest time not whisking him away for sexy time. I mean, all

TYSON – EPILOGUE ONEThe last three months, post war, have been absolute hell! Yeah, I said it. Hell. Getting Blue Meadow back on its feet has been a huge challenge in and of itself. Much worse than most of the other territories I’ve taken over throughout the years. I honestly kept so much from both Maddie and Rose. Neither of them needed to know the intricate details of the rebuild. They were both getting over the trauma and horrors of the battle itself. I didn’t want to worry them.Kent, that worthless piece of crap, really did a number on this pack, it’s health and its finances. I had to pay over three million dollars to a mob pack in Las Vegas, for both Blue Meadow and Pine Woods’ debts. The last thing I wanted was for the mob to demand parts of the pack or worse, them going to the council for payment. I want to keep the council out of any and all of my affairs, as much as possible. They have proved, repeatedly, that they can’t be trusted to do their jobs.I made that trip to Vegas

ROSE“I thought I was going to lose you yesterday, Rose. Don’t do that to me again. You are my whole world.” He says as he slows his thrusts, showing me how much he loves me. I open my eyes and see Zeus shining out with him. I cup their cheeks and bring their mouth to mine. I kiss them with all the love I have within me. We continue slowly but with passion until we both explode in delicious orgasm.“I hope our sex continues to be this amazing in the years to come.” I tell him as we separate from each other.“Rose, from what I understand from other mated couples, it just gets better and better.”“I’m not sure how it can get better, but I look forward to learning.” I say with a sassy smirk over my shoulder as I step into the water. Tyson joins me in the water and does what he always does. He washes me and kisses the scars I have left. Apparently, they are much smaller than they once were.When I get out of the shower, I turn to look at my back and I gasp at what I see. The main lines are

ROSEWatching Tyson battling Kent is one of the scariest things I’ve ever had to witness. Kent looks awful and I feel horrible for his wolf, being saddled with such an atrocious human spirit. I know Tyson will take him down, but I’m still scared that something will happen to him that he can’t heal from. Tyson is my everything. My other half. I know I will live on should he perish during this battle, but it would be for Maddie and our baby only. My soul would be shattered, never to live like I did before. He has to pull through. He just has to.George holds me close, giving me comfort as we watch Tyson fighting Kent. As it progresses, my worry lessens somewhat. Kent isn’t fighting well, and he’s not healing from his minor injuries. I hope this speeds up because I hate seeing him suffer. Despite all the shit he’s put me through, I know his wolf doesn’t deserve anything long and drawn out.I breathe a sigh of relief when Tyson pulls Kent’s heart out of his chest, thankful that the man re

TYSONThe moment I see Maddie jump toward Rachel; I know it's Infinity up front and in control. Her eyes are glowing a bright green-gold-yellow and the angry expression is one I don’t think I’ve ever seen on Maddie’s face before. Plus, I can’t smell her on the wind like I can my Rose. I launch forward when I see Rachel’s eyes unfocus in that split second when Infinity lands on her back, knowing I’ll only have a moment to attack with Infinity’s distraction. What I’m not expecting is Infinity to kill Rachel in that moment. I know Infinity is an ancient wolf spirit, she’s fast on her feet and I know she’s killed in her past lives, but to see the blood of a kill on my sweet, baby Maddie’s hands, is beyond shocking.Rose, however, doesn’t even flinch at seeing Infinity toss Rachel’s heart to the ground or her splattered in Rachel’s blood. Nor does she pause with the gravity of meeting Infinity. Rose has really embraced the wolf shifter world completely and totally. I couldn’t be prouder of

INFINITYMaddie and Kevin step out of the dungeon into a warzone. Both of their eyes blow wide at the scene, and I can feel Maddie’s panic. We knew this was coming, but I don’t think she anticipated how ugly it was going to be. I lift my head and I smell the rotting garbage scent of rogues. It seems Maddie’s father knows no bounds. Humans, most likely hunters, for kidnapping, rogues as mercenaries, slavery, killing his mate and sexual deviancy. He really does need to be put down.The panic coming from Maddie hasn’t lessened as we look around on where to go and not be noticed. I have been saving up my strength the last few days, so I pull Maddie back and take full control. She doesn’t fight me on it and that tells me she is very overwhelmed right now. She puts on a good show, but the constant state of alertness and feeling the danger around her, she is slowly breaking. After this morning, seeing Odette killed, and then staying neutral to save Kevin, she’s at her max for today.“Rest Mad

ROSEI am flying across the roads and highways trying to get to Blue Meadow as quickly as I can. George and Ike are holding on for dear life and I think I can hear George whispering a prayer to Selene when my car catapults into the air. I’ve maintained my 110mph through most of the drive which has kept the guys in high anxiety mode. We don’t get too far off the pavement with that larger bump, but the way down is rough, and we bounce several times on the landing.“Luna, please slow down. The rest of the team can’t keep up. Plus, it feels like you’re trying to kill us.” Ike pleads with me, looking a little green.“Then they should drive faster. And I am not trying to kill you.”“Their SUV isn’t designed to drive that fast, plus they can’t take turns like this car doeeeeeees!” His voice goes higher pitched as I take a curve much faster than he’s comfortable with.“Well, you’re getting your wish. Wolves directly ahead and they’re fighting. I’m going to have to slow down. Do you know which

TYSONI cut the link to Rose as soon as Zeus and I tell her that we love her. I know she is worried about all of this, and it is her first experience with a shifter battle, but I know I’ll be fine. Zeus is a powerful, ancient wolf. He will decimate dozens before we hit a real challenge to our strength. Although, the biggest challenge will be to try to minimize the lives lost. These warriors we are going up against will be Maddie’s pack members one day in the future. I don’t want to kill any of them indiscriminately.It takes a few hours to run to Blue Meadow. We stopped running miles ahead of their territory and proceeded with stealth. My first warriors took out their border patrol silently, with darts laced with a mixture of wolfsbane and water hemlock. Again, we’re trying to not take anyone out needlessly. Most pack members of trash Alphas are only following orders. They don’t necessarily believe in the orders. Killing people that are just doing their jobs is what crap Alphas do.On
