2024-10-29 19:42:56Caleb’s Point of View
Knock, Knock
I get distracted from the paperwork sitting at my desk as Theo pokes his head in my office. “Hey how is everything going?”
I sigh and do not try to hide the stress that is weighing down on me. “Well as far as I can see we are good as far as food for the winter, thanks to Ellie our crops have done well. With Hannah’s help the livestock are doing great too. Even with the boost in pack members thanks to your careful planning we are set. Alpha Jerome has requested a few things, but it is all things that we can cover.”
“Ok so now that you have filled me in with knowledge that I already know, how are you doing? As in you specifically.” Par usual nothing escapes Theo’s attentiveness.
I pull out two tumblers and the bottle of Brandy that I keep in the desk and pour us both a drink. “In truth man I feel lost. I know that Daphne needs me t

The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 8
Caleb’s Point of ViewThe next morning Daphne is out of our bed before the sun rises. This has been a habit of hers lately and it is beyond frustrating. I miss holding my mate in my arms. Just thinking of her toned body pressed against my skin, has my member jumping to life. Growling in frustration, I decide to hop in the shower hoping that the water will cool the slow burning of my blood.Basking in the warmth of the water I recall the vivid dream that I was having of Daphne that led to me waking up craving her body. In the dream we were back in the kitchen except this time she did not stop me, instead she purred into my ear, as she nipped at my neck. I had pushed her shirt over her head and took my time teasing her perky nipples through her bra, while slightly rocking my hips against hers allowing her to feel the full length of my erection against her sensitive nub. She had bite my neck and was happily rubbing herself against me as well.
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 9
Daphne’s Point of ViewI jolt awake in a cold sweat, and it takes me a moment to realize where I am. Once the fog of sleep has lifted, I look to make sure that I have not woken Caleb up. Thankfully, he is still soundly sleeping and was not disturbed by my movement. For a moment I am jealous that he is able to sleep so soundly when lately I have been consumed by nightmares. Knowing that I will not be able to find sleep again I carefully remove Caleb’s arm from around me and slip out of bed.My wolf was itching to be free, and since no one else was up I decided that going for a nice morning run would clear my head. I quickly throw on a pair of shorts, and a shirt and grab my shoes as I quietly walk out of our bedroom door. It does not take me long to make my way out of the house.As I start walking towards the woods, I cannot stop my mind from wandering back to my dream. Somehow in my dream my parents were still alive. Caleb had gotten

Caleb’s Point of ViewAfter letting Theo know that I am leaving the pack lands for a quick errand, I am pumped up as I climb in my Jeep. Everything that I have planned out for Daphne is going perfectly, and I hope this is enough to show my beloved mate that there is nothing in this world that I will not do to make her happy. Daphne’s scent to me has always had a tinge of gladiolas, and I know the perfect place for me to get her a beautiful boutique. I wave goodbye to the guards as I head into LaGrande.It is not very often that we must wander into human lands for things. Theo and I have built our pack up to be as self-sufficient as possible. We grow most of our own food and raise our own livestock. We also hunt and fish when we want or need to, never taking more from the Earth than we put back. So, I decide that I will take advantage of this time and roll down my windows and blare the radio. I recall when I had brought Daphne to our home. T

Chapter Eleven:Daphne’s Point of ViewAfter speaking with Dr. Hollis, I started to formulate a plan to surprise Caleb. It has been a long time since I joined Caleb for dinner, and even longer since I have cooked for him. Caleb once remarked that he loved my cooking. I ran down to the kitchen to start looking to see what supplies we had available while I was thinking about my plan.Taking a quick inventory of what I had available I decided to make Caleb chicken enchiladas with red sauce, Spanish rice, and cornbread cake. I carefully begin to season the chicken and make the dough for the tortillas. Cooking was the one chore that I never minded doing. I love the scents of the various spices, and there is an enjoyment in watching people enjoy the food that I make. Once the chicken is done I add a few more seasonings before letting it cool so that I can shred it.I start to get nervous as dinner time approaches.
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 12
Caleb’s Point of ViewOf all of the ways that today could have turned out this was the one scenario that I had never considered. How could she hit me? I never seen my parents raise a hand to each other. I have never been so upset with Daphne. To be honest I am barely containing my anger right now. I had to leave the house before I said or did something that we would both end up regretting.Currently I am storming off towards the woods. I am hoping that a nice long run with my wolf will help clear my head. I cannot believe that amount of rage that is coursing through me right now. Not only did she strike me, but she thought that I would cheat on her. Daphne has that little trust in me. I know that she had a difficult past, but I have never done anything that would make her jump to that kind of conclusion. I do not even look at other women.Finally entering the woods, I quickly strip down before shifting. I love allowing my wolf out, but ton
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 13
Daphne’s Point of ViewAs usual I woke up prior to Caleb. Unlike every morning though today I do not want to escape my bed. I feel no need to run away if anything I long to scoot closer to Caleb. He did not come back home until late last night. I pretended that I was already asleep when he came in. I know that it was utterly cowardly of me to pretend, but I had no idea what words could start the healing to the emotional wounds that I had inflicted upon him yesterday.Caleb was right when he said that he has never given me a reason not to trust him. He has never hurt me, if anything he has only improved my life in every single way. From the very first day he came into my life he has fought for me. He has told me every day that I am beyond beautiful. He gave me a real home, and a real family. He reunited me with Scarlett, something that I had never thought possible.Even when we found out that I am not necessarily normal he never made me fee
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 14
Caleb’s Point of ViewI am not even surprised that I am once again waking up alone. Although my anger has left me the hurt consumes my soul, and I briefly wonder if I even need to get up from the bed today. Laying here is a special kind of torture. I can smell my beautiful mate, and a part of me wants to roll over and hug her pillow to my chest and just deeply inhale. On the other hand, my pride is wounded and now I feel like pushing her away. Perhaps if I treated her the way she had treated me these past few weeks she would understand better the torture she has put me through. There is that wonderful voice of self-doubt that creeps in asking would she even care.Allowing myself a few moments to continue to wallow in my own depression, I finally resolve myself to climb out of bed. Hoping that a nice hot shower will help lift the dredges of the soul crushing depression that has seeped deep into me. Climbing into the steaming shower I ponder how I

Daphne’s Point of ViewCaleb’s words shook me to my core. I know that I love him. I know that he is the person that I want to spend eternity with. I had never intended for things to get this bad, actually I had never intended for things to be bad at all. His words left me wondering if this is even fixable. Have I pushed Caleb beyond his limits?Not only am I trying to process everything that is happening between Caleb and I, but now I have to deal with Alpha Noah, and probably his snobby wife. I had never taken into consideration when we gave him the right to rule the pack that I would also have to deal with her or Heather. Melissa would be torture enough to deal with but the thought of Heather being in this house or anywhere close to Caleb sets my blood to boil.I was brooding on this when Hannah entered the kitchen. “Hey Caleb said that we need to set up a few things for the visiting Lunas, so I brought in my old scrapbook th

Alma’s words had successfully shocked both Scarlett and I into silence for a long moment. Hawk was not just the Alpha’s son but was also the next in line to take over his pack.“How sure is he that this witch is his destined mate?” Scarlett finally gasped out, breaking the tense silence we had been locked in.“He is sure enough that he would lay his own life down for hers.” Alma practically whispers back. I can see that this is sitting heavy on her heart and mind.Seeing her obvious discomfort spurred me into action. “Well then I hope to be celebrating their mating ceremony soon. As I said before Luna Alma you will find that we have no issues with Viola, or your pack. I am actually hoping that this will help strengthen our bonds, and we would welcome her with open arms here.”A smile broke out upon Alma’s face at my words. “Luna Daphne you cannot possibly fathom how much I appreciate your kind wo
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 40
Daphne’s Point of View It did not take me long to finish getting ready after Caleb left. I took a few long breaths to calm my inflamed face before I left our room. Caleb has my heart pounding. As the Luna of my pack, and with us still entertaining guests then I cannot be waltzing around like a lovesick puppy, filled with lust. Once I felt the blood leave my face, and my pulse slow I knew it was time to leave the room. Surprisingly I felt rather hungry this morning but thinking about the activities of the previous night it should not have been a surprise that I have worked up an appetite. With the ghost of last night replaying through my mind, and a huge smile on my face I happily left the bedroom and headed downstairs to have breakfast. I barely made it out of the room before my arm was grabbed and I was yanked into the study. “What the hell Scarlett that hurt.” I whisper yell at my sister as she finally relents and releases my arm. “
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 39
Caleb’s Point of ViewI know that I must get up from the bed but laying here with Daphne sleeping soundly splayed across my chest I do not want to move. Last night was amazing. I did not expect Daphne to be ready for intimacy on that level yet, but when she bucked her hips up, I was lost in the void of lust. I had missed my mate severely, so it was a huge relief to both myself and my wolf spirit. I felt like our bond was stronger than it was yesterday. I bent my head and softly kissed the top of hers, sending up another thank you to the Moon Goddess for blessing me with her.“Mmmm I do not want to get up yet.” Daphne’s sleepy voice called out.“I know my love, but there is a lot to get done today. On the bright side almost, everyone will be leaving after today so that we can start to untangle some of the mysteries we have around here.” I am not sure if I said this more to reassure her, or if I was trying in va
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 38
Caleb’s Point of ViewI lay awake for hours, praying that sleep will eventually come. Daphne is splayed across my chest with her head nestled into my shoulder. I love holding her like this, and normally I would be out like a light. This is the exact kind of contact that I was craving while she mourned the loss of our child. Tonight, though I am racked with worry, and fear.What if Daphne is right? What if somewhere along the lines in our pack, our wolves mated with witches or witch hybrids? What if a witch cursed our pack? I hate not knowing exactly what is going on. Usually in situations where I do not have the facts, I can turn to Theo, and he can discover what exactly is going on. It seems as if Theo is as stumped as the rest of us, and that alone is making everything uneasy for me.Scarlett’s admission is also troubling me. If Alma was able to find a witch does that mean that they are more common than I previously thought? I pers

Daphne’s Point of ViewCaleb got Clint settled into what was supposed to be our nursery. Luckily, there was an attached bathroom as well, so Clint would have total privacy. I was still flabbergasted by everything that was currently transpiring. This week seems to be tossing us mystery after mystery. My brain could not stop trying to fit all the pieces together. Somehow, I had a feeling that a few things were connected. “I feel like I can see the gears turning in your brain already.” Caleb’s voice startled me out of my thoughts. I turned to see that he had come back.“Did Clint need anything? I feel bad because I do not remember asking him if he had already eaten.” I tell him.“I ran down and grabbed him a few sandwiches, fresh fruit, and made sure he had plenty of water to drink as well. He will be fine. This whole story seems crazy.” Caleb pulls me gently into his chest.&ldqu

Caleb’s Point of ViewAlpha Clint’s words stunned me. How could Axle not be his son? The man was softly sobbing in my office chair with his head in his hands. Daphne I could see was shocked as well and still standing by the door. I swiftly went behind my desk and pulled out my Brandy and three tumblers, pouring us each a glass. I then grabbed the tissues and nudged Clint’s arm with them. He gladly accepted my offer and when he was done wiping his face, I handed him the glass of Brandy.“Now that you are a bit calmer Clint, I am going to need a deeper explanation. I have met Axle before, and the man that is here appears to be him.” In truth it had been a little while since I had seen Axle, but overall, his looks have not changed much since then.“I noticed the change shortly after Axle took the reigns as Alpha of our pack. At first, he was my son, dutiful in his leadership, proud of our pack and strong. Then he

Daphne’s Point of ViewWalking out into the back courtyard my breath was taken away. The decorations were amazing. There were five small tables set up with navy tablecloths, and simple mason jar candle lights in the middle surrounded by a small wreath of flowers. Fairy lights were draped elegantly over the pergola, and over a few of the rose bushes. The sound of a violin caught me off guard and I looked quickly towards the back of the garden path to find a few of our teenage wolves tuning orchestra instruments.“I asked Brandon to gather a few members of the orchestra from school to provide some light background music.” Caleb leans close to me and whispers in my ear.The courtyard looks like something out of a movie. I had always admired the beauty it held during the daylight, but tonight it was a shining star. “This looks better than anything I could have imagined.” I whisper still in awe. Caleb put his arm gently

Caleb’s Point of ViewI had hoped that Daphne and I could spend a few minuets alone, just holding each other, but as soon as I walked in the door, she said that she needed to talk. From the look of her furrowed brow, I could tell that she felt that it was important, but I still inwardly sigh because I was hoping after the meeting that I would get a small break. Unfortunately, it seems like I will have no such luck today. I do however pull her into my chest, I just need a moment of feeling her next to me even if the relief is temporary.“Alright my little one what is going on?” I finally ask her. She then proceeds to tell me about the visit that she had with Anita, and Carolyn and the cryptic message left by her nasty mother. “So, the only reason why she came was because Scarlett is supposedly in danger?” The message seems vague at best, and a quick analysis of the situation leads me to believe that it is baloney.&l
The Alpha's Slave Mate Book 2 Chapter 33
Daphne’s Point of ViewWith everything that has happened within the last year I feel like nothing should be able to surprise me anymore. Carolyn telling me that my mother sent a warning was a huge surprise though. I quickly tried to cover my shock because I did not want Carolyn to think that I was viewing her any differently. The young girl already admitted that she had issues with people questioning her gift. I have no doubt in my mind that Carolyn is speaking the truth. For one she never met my mother, and I highly doubt that she would know her name. The second reason is the last set of words my mother said to her about Scarlett being in danger. If I were the one in danger my mother never would have shown herself; however, Scarlett was the diamond in my mother’s eyes. There is nothing that my mother would not do to save her favorite child.“Thank you so much for delivering that message to me Carolyn. I want you to know that I think
