The Alpha’s Scorned 129. Intruder
...Kenji POV...Wynter had been with Darius for a few hours already. I had gone back to her room and begun pacing, desperately trying to figure out what to do next. I didn't want to give up on Wynter, just like the doctor seemed to have done. A thought came to mind, mind it be a desperate one, but at this point, we didn't have any other option. I ran out into the hallway, looking for the doctor from earlier. It didn't take long for me to find him. He was standing in front of the nurses' desk, reading over a report from one of his patients."Where're Wynter's parents?" I ask him, getting straight to the point."Rooms 605 and 706. Why?" He asks."I think they may just be the key to fixing this.""But they're not even her real parents." The doctor begins, making me spin on my heel to look at him."Does that really matter? They may not be her birth parents, but they are the only parents she's ever been given the chance to know. If anyone can help her right now, they can.""Are you sure a

I continued to stare at the door in complete shock. My mind had yet to catch up with the circumstances. I was rendered speechless as I attempted to fathom what I'd just witnessed. My mind had to be playing tricks on me. How else could I explain what happened? There wasn't an explanation."Dude!"I feel someone shake me, only to realize that I'd been left staring at the door, and had temporarily forgotten everyone else standing around me.I turn to look at an annoyed Hunter, who seems to be seconds away from slapping me. As if on cue, I watch his hand raise, and come towards my face. I quickly reach up, grabbing his wrist in the process, preventing him from making contact."About time." Hunter remarks."I almost got a hit on you." Hunter says, feigning a laugh."Only in your dreams. You haven't been successful with landing a hit on me yet." I remark, shrugging my shoulders; earning me a grimace and an eye roll from Hunter."That's only because it's not right to hit your elders." Hunter

...Wynter POV...I was absolutely terrified. I didn't know what to do. I was already an emotional wreck, and that was before that man had entered the room. I hated knowing that Darius' fate was on my shoulders, and my shoulders alone. Wasn't there anyone else that could do this? Couldn't the vampire from earlier do this instead? He would probably have much better experience than me. I knew we didn't have time for delays, so I went to Darius. The doubts in my mind continued to grow wild, as I looked at the open wound in his chest. Praying for the familiar rhythm of his heart to come back. I was psyching myself out, and I was well aware of that. I took a deep breath, and focused on what was important. I closed my eyes, concentrating on my vampiric side. I felt my canines elongate further than they ever had before. They changed from their sharp form to razor-like needles. I ran my tongue along them, and was surprised by how sharp they'd become. I bent lower, closer to his heart. The s

When I wake up, I feel dizzy and light-headed. A feeling of warmth and comfort washes over me, but I don't know why. I can't remember a thing. Where am I? What happened?I feel like I've not only been hit by a truck. But I also feel as though I've been run over by a steam roller. I can't manage to move a muscle. I don't understand what's going on. Why can't I move?I try to open my eyes, but find the task too difficult, so decide to just relax. A comforting beating rings in my ears. I don't know why the rhythm sounds so beautiful. But I find myself entranced by it. Almost as if it's gently rocking me back to sleep.Unable to move, I decide to allow myself a chance to rest.I don't know how long I had fallen asleep. But when I woke up, memories of the previous events begin to cloud my mind. Until I suddenly Darius.My eyes burst open, as I look for Darius. Which is when I see I'm laying on Darius. My hand softly grazing his chest. His chest is so smooth. I run my hand over his heart, a

We quickly got changed and headed towards Darius' office. Kenji hadn't actually told us where to go, but Darius figured that Kenji was waiting for him in his office. Darius' office was big, and could easily entertain a dozen people comfortably.I'm not sure why but once we made it to Darius' office door, I felt a strange feeling of uneasiness. "What's wrong?" Darius asks, spinning me around to look at him."What makes you think something's wrong?""I can feel it. You've only just been up for a short while, so may not have noticed the difference, but ever since you turned me, I've been much more in tune with your feelings. I know what you're feeling, and in this case perhaps better than you do.""You mean, you feel that as well."Darius nods his head with a slight smile. Raising his hand to cup my cheek, softly stroking my cheek with his thumb."Mhmm. I feel everything. So I'll ask again. What's wrong?"I look away, not sure how to process this. I feel uneasy, and yet at the same time

...Darius POV..."I believe introductions are in order." Kenji says, once again commanding the room. Even though I may be Alpha, I have no intention of running today's meeting. Today is not about ranks or titles, but rather a time to be with my mate. I don't know what we're about to learn, but I have a deep-seated urge to be with my mate. I don't know why, only that I feel as though she will need me to be there for her. Something tells me that she's going to need me right now. So I'm more than happy to allow Kenji his moment to shine. "Kayden and Ayira, this is Callista and Maddox, Wynter's foster parents. Callista and Maddox, this is Kayden and Ayria. Alpha and Luna of Moon Stone Pack. Ayira is my sister." Kenji says, smiling at her."Everyone, this is Genesis, my mate." Kenji looks down at his mate sitting on the couch next to where he's standing. They both look at each other with a deep sense of love. It's truly wonderful seeing them so happy together. Kenji reaches a hand toward

...Wynter POV...My eyes went wide as I was overcome with such a strong emotion. I looked at Darius, who seemed to be deep in concentration. It was unbelievable. I was feeling an overwhelming sensation of love. Which is when I realized that I wasn't just feeling love, but the love he has towards me. I embraced the feeling, understanding for the first time how he truly felt about me. I know he had told me time and time again that he loved me and no one else. He made sure I knew that Catherine meant nothing to him. But at the same time, I couldn't stop myself from doubting our relationship. No mater how he tried to plcate me, I continued to wonder how his life would've been had he stayed with Catherine. But after hearing the Oracle say how Darius would've died, only made me more upset. I couldn't explain it. I know I should be happy, but for some reason, I just can't seem to be. Picturing Darius dying at the hands of the rogues, only caused flashbacks to when Xander ripped his heart ou

...Darius POV...I was quite possibly the happiest man on earth. The love of my life just said yes to marrying me. She may have already said yes to me once before. But I didn't think it really counted. The first time I hadn't planned on asking her, but I thought there was no better time to do it. I had just shown her how I truly felt about her. No other moment would ever be as special. Even though we were mates, I didn't know for certain if she was going to say yes or not. A proposal isn't ruly a proposal if there isn't a ring. Something I had kicked myself for not having at the time. But it was just so spur-of-the-moment, that I had even surprised myself. While this may not have been the ideal proposal, at least I had a ring for her. I know it would never make a difference to her, but I felt she deserved the best. I wanted to show her how special she was to me. I would make up for my sporadic proposal later this evening. When Wynter was in the hospital, I was continuously plagued by

The Alpha’s Scorned 144. Epilogue
...BONUS CHAPTER......10 Years Later......Wynter POV...A lot has happened in such a short amount of time. Not long after the merger of our two packs, did more requests come. Alphas far and wide were coming to us in hopes of merging our packs. What had begun as an alliance designed to help strengthen the packs, soon became to act as a Peace Treaty. Each pack we aligned with, were given the same conditions as Crescent Moon. The ranking members would remain in power, so long as they came to myself or Darius for any critical decisions. We had merged with so many packs, that we were no longer separate packs, but one happy kingdom. One of my more recent projects was to create a city devoted to the rehabilitation of rogues. Those that had been rogue would now have the opportunity to reenter pack life once they were deemed to not be a threat. Many of which had already successfully made the transition. Given our extensive reach, we were more easily able to help those in need. We now had en

...Wynter POV...After a lengthy discussion we all came to the unanimous decision to merge with the Crescent Moon Pack. Everyone had very valid concerns for not merging with them, however, I knew Alpha Landon's pleas were genuine. He was only coming to us as it was his only option. Without a merge, his pack could be killed. A fate no Alpha would ever want for their pack. The five of us decided to go over a sort of job description if you will, for Alpha Landon. He would be a valuable resource, but at the same time we couldn't afford to give him too much power. In order to successfully merge the two packs, there had to be one concise leadership. If others felt that they could turn to Alpha Landon for their problems, it could risk a mutiny.So while Alpha Landon would have power, he would have to go through either myself or Darius to make critical decisions. It was the only safe way to merge the packs, while also allowing Alpha Landon a position as well.Before informing Alpha Landon of
The Alpha’s Scorned 142. Merger
...Darius POV...After Wynter and I had finished, we quickly showered and got ourselves ready to meet with Alpha Landon. I was confused as to why he suddenly showed up. But decided not to look too much into it until I had a chance to hear him out.Wynter stayed by my side as we entered my office. Alpha Landon was seated in the chair in front of my desk. However, he stood as Wynter and I entered my office. "Alpha. Luna." Alpha Landon addressed us, bowing slightly.I had walked over to my chair behind my desk. Wynter dutifully followed, and planned on standing behind me. However, Wynter was my Luna and my equal. Whatever Alpha Landon had planned on talking to me about, now involved Wynter. She had just as much say as what happened in this pack as I did. Which meant that I wanted her to be treated as an equal. I reached over to her, and guided her to sit on my lap. I smiled as Wynter quickly obliged my unasked command, and sat on my lap. I kissed the side of her cheek before turning to
The Alpha’s Scorned 141. Confidence
...Darius POV...I awoke to the sounds of birds chirping. I could hear a faint heartbeat nearby and felt an incredible warmth. I opened my eyes to see Wynter lying on top of me. Memories of early this morning began to swim in my mind. I kissed the top of Wynter's head, careful not to move her. She's been running at full tilt ever since she woke up from the hospital. We had nothing pressing that needed to be taken care of, so I decided to just lay here and watch her sleep. I smiled as I remembered our lovemaking from earlier. The feeling was so euphoric. We had both longed for this moment in so long, that it felt like we would never get it. Now that we had the chance, I never wanted this moment to end. Without even trying, Wynter made me the happiest man in the world last night. I began to daydream of our future together. Of Wynter chasing around our pups, as I watched from behind. I pictured myself training our son to fight and to become the next alpha. I pictured Wynter running to t

...Wynter POV...As Darius and I continued to run through the woods, I could feel Caedance grow stronger. It was almost as if we were feeding off of our surroundings. The rush was making us stronger. For the first time, I felt truly in control. I had the sudden urge to test my abilities. So far, Darius had managed to not only keep up with me, but he even managed to run past me. I was both stunned and proud. I wanted to perform a few tests of my own. Caedance had given me some suggestions, and I had wanted to see if they would work. Caedance had suggested we try to hide from Asher to see if he would be able to find us. Much to my surprise, he managed to find me each time. Typically when I would try to hide, I would attempt to cloak myself using a mixture of camouflage, similar to a chameleon. I would focus on my surroundings and soon found myself becoming invisible. I had to hide my scent from him as well, which was probably the most difficult task. Each time I had done it, Darius had
The Alpha’s Scorned 139. Carpe Diem
...Darius POV...The air in the room had gone serious as Wynter announced her suspicions. While Wynter and I hadn't had the chance to properly discuss what had happened, we were both suspicious of the outcome. People don't just come back to the dead without being changed. I also can't deny the change I felt inside of me. I had long suspected that I'd been changed, I just wasn't sure exactly how. I already felt far stronger than I already had been. To the point that I often found myself having to dial back my strength. I also felt far faster than I had been. It was as if all of my senses had been heightened. I could now see far better along with smell things from a large distance. I had gone for a run the night I had first woken up after the battle. I had a strong sense of restlessness. The urge to get out quickly became the only thing I could focus on. It was as if my entire body had been electrocuted. Every fibre in my being needed me to go on a run. To get out.I began to have flas
The Alpha’s Scorned 138. No Longer Alone
I felt uneasy as we made our way back to Darius' office. I could tell that Darius sensed that something was bothering me, but refrained from asking me. There was just one thing that I couldn't seem to forget. Once we made it back to the office, we all quickly resumed our positions. Darius sitting beside me, placing a hand on my knee as a sign of comfort. I found myself biting my lip as I continued to chew over the thoughts plaguing my mind.I looked over towards Kenji, waiting for him to restart the meeting. Kenji stood up, but didn't start the meeting right away. My anxiety started to run full-course. Before I knew it, I found myself speaking out."What does this mean for us?" I watched as all heads turned to me. Waiting for me to continue."What do you mean my child?" The oracle asks.I find myself nervously biting my lip. I look at Darius for support. I watch as Darius nods his head for me to continue."Xander had told me that if Darius and I completed our mate bond, that it wo
The Alpha’s Scorned 137. The Truth Comes Out
...Wynter POV..."Upon the seven daughters of the seven daughters, the completed ritual shall activate the rise of the true king. While lightning strikes twice, a proposal shall mark the age of love and become the fall of unholy ones. It shall be when fire burns red, the forgotten princesses face, will trigger the return of the resistance. Once the green sea swallows towns, a challenge shall mark the start of war and witness the return of the fallen. Those in power will bend to one knee, bowing before the lost queen.""So what does that actually mean?" Darius asks."It basically means that one the descendent of the Kazakh wolves finds her true mate. The true king will come about. A moment in time, born out of love, will result in the downfall of the ones unloyal to the couple.""But what about the princess triggering the return of existence?" I ask."Wasn't that when Xander first realized or at least suspected your origins? He constantly tried to keep you away from me." Darius remarks
