LUCY'S POV:

"Arrgggh" I groaned out loud as I stretched languishingly in my bed. Blinking my eyes a few times before staring up at the ceiling.

"Nia, pleeeeeease just heal the ache," I complained out loud.

Seth had been kicking my ass the last two days after I finally beat him sparring. He was no longer going easy on the workouts.

'Lucy, the soreness is a reminder of what it took to get stronger. I'm not healing that part of you,' she said, reminding me for the millionth time.

"UGH, why do you have to be so wise and stubborn," I spat back while rolling my body to the edge of the bed grudgingly.

'I'm you, and you are me, you know you need this as much as I do,' she replied dryly. Clearly sick of my whining.

"At least Seth will be gone for a while, so I can take a break. My body feels like it was run over by a semi," I respond, letting my legs fall off the edge of the bed. My feet hit the cold ground before I dragged my body to the door.

I let the delicious smell lingering from the kit

  • The Alphas Secret Daughter   29 - Seeing Tricia Again

    When my eyes finally landed on Tricia, I felt some relief but also a flood of anxiety. It was definitely her.She was a few years older than me and while she looked the same, she had definitely grown up. Her features were the same but different and more mature. I'm sure it was the same for me. We hadn't seen each other in four years.Gamma Zev escorted her. I had thought she would have come with a warrior or two, so I'm guessing Leander's inner circle was the only person besides Tricia who knew about me being here. I took a mental note to ask Seth who all knew I was here when he got back.Once she got a bit closer to the cabin, I stood up from the porch swing."LUCY!" she hollered at me before she ran up to me and embraced me in a warm but extremely tight hug.I winced and she immediately pulled back and stared at me with a frown.I laughed a little before explaining. "I'm just sore, Beta Seth has been working me hard. I'll be good by tomorrow Trish."She blew air out through her par

    LUCY'S POV:"Hello?" I screamed out into the void.It's all black. Nothingness.I stomp my feet on the ground; there is no sound, no pressure."Nia?" I whispered. I'm beginning to get scared at this point. I'm unsure where I am and what this place is.She doesn't answer. Am I dead?My shoulders slump forward, and just as I'm about to sit and have an entire meltdown, I see a silver glimmer flicker in the corner of my eye. I quickly turn my entire body to it while narrowing my eyes.I feel a pull in my chest as I begin moving toward it. As I approach the bright silver light, I'm engulfed by it, suddenly standing at the tree line by the pack house—the Crescent Wolf Pack House.I look around warily. How did I get here? I continue to look around, seemingly noticing that I am completely alone, when I hear a branch snap, causing me to whip my head to the side."Lucy?" I hear a familiar voice coming closer.Leon's voice.I turn to face the direction of his voice, gently stepping backwards. I

    LUCY'S POV:Leon and I look at each other for a short time. I don't know his thoughts or feelings, but he seems calm, so I'm trying to pull myself together."Is Bandit okay?" This was the only response I could think of. I wasn't sure what the dream version of me would say to him, but it was a shot in the dark."No, he has been really weak. I don't know what has gotten into him. My best guess is that I'm getting older, and his need to have a mate is pulling our connection apart. I know it doesn't typically happen this young, but being an Alpha, it would make sense for it to happen earlier," he says, shifting to look up at the ceiling. Damn. Here I am. His actual fated mate. Listening to him talk about losing his wolf because he needs his mate.My stomach flips as he turns back on his side to look at me again.I feel horrible. "Do you want a mate?" I might as well take advantage of this moment to ask a few questions I've secretly wanted to know."Do you?" he counters, looking at me wit

    LEON'S POV:I woke up this morning feeling rejuvenated. Bandit was more present in my mind as well. I sighed in relief while I stretched out in my bed, looking over at the spot that Lucy had been in during my dream."Bandit, you seem like you feel better," I say out loud, noticing his presence again visible. He is lying on his back with his tongue lolled out to the side.'Yes, I feel good, but....' Bandit trailed off, confused.I chuckled, understanding his confusion. He definitely wasn't 100% there, but I at least knew we would have a good day today. I was certainly going to make the most of it.I got dressed and headed toward the training field. I spotted my brother, who looked over and waved at me. Once I got closer, I felt the remnants of relief through our bond."You slept in. You never sleep in!" Liam said with a smile."I was having a good dream," I said, smiling at the memory of it.Liam arched his eyebrow a little bit and smiled at me curiously but didn't ask any further quest

    LUCY'S POV:It had been a few days since Tricia arrived when I had that dream. Well, I don't know if I would consider it a dream since I was inside someone else's dream. Tricia and I had spent the last couple of days catching up. She told me about a guy she had been crushing on before she came to the Crescent Moon Pack to find me. We talked about her mom and my mom.Apparently, her mom had not taken my mom's passing well. The entire pack loved her, so I assumed her loss impacted many. My heart stung at the mere thought of her being gone; I often tried not to think about it at all.I hadn't told her about all the weird things happening to me yet. I was still trying to build up trust again. After everything I had been through, trusting someone with my secrets wasn't easy.She explained that as Fae, she and her mom could disguise their scent and had been doing so since before she was born. She admitted that my mother was aware that they were Fae, but she had hidden it from my sperm donor

    LEON'S POV:"Sit down, son, please," my dad said, surprising both Liam and me. His voice was calm and soothing after my outburst.I looked at Liam who looked back at me with the same expression. I sat back down reluctantly, trying to calm Bandit down in my head. He was seething from the news.I guess my obsession with Lucy had rubbed off on him, too.'Sorry, B,' I said inwardly. No response. He is still huffing over Kragen's claims against Lucy."As you both know, the law states that a claim such as this nullifies the right to hold Lucy here in our pack if she is caught," It doesn't blow past me the way he says, "if she is caught." I already knew something was off but that just solidified what I was feeling.He slides his hand down his face looking more exhausted than I have seen him in years."Dad, do you think Lucy really killed her pack Luna?" Liam asks, making me whip my head back at him with a rough growl.'Chill out, brother; I'm just trying to see how Dad reacts!" Liam shoots me

  • The Alphas Secret Daughter   35 - You're My Mate

    LUCY'S POV:After kicking Zev's ass, much to his shock, I locked myself up in my room. I cried for what felt like hours.At some point, I wasn't even crying for any specific reason. It was a waterfall of pent-up emotions that I had kept bottled up for so long that finally just exploded like a bomb had destroyed the damn that had been holding it there.After I came to my senses, I realized I was still bloodied and bruised. I opened the door to my room, freshly showered but starving. A tray with a dinner plate and a note was at the edge of the door frame.I retreated back into my room with the food and the note, which informed me that he had made up an extra room for Trish to sleep in tonight so I could have some space.Jason really was the best.As I curled up in bed, I sent a silent prayer to the Moon Goddess not to see Leon tonight. I wasn't sure I could keep it together if I did.-------------------------------------------Welp. I was right. I hardly kept it together when I saw him.

  • The Alphas Secret Daughter   36 - The Lake

    LUCY'S POV: Leon seemed utterly unaffected by the lake. It didn't make sense. We were in his dream. How did it affect me this way? "Lucy, did you just say I was your mate?" Leon growled in my ear. I could feel the rumble vibrating from his flesh. Chills prickled down my neck, where his breath danced against my skin. "Yes," I breathed out, just shy of a whisper. The vibration from the lake was overwhelming, and I couldn't move. I could only speak the things I did not want to say. The words kept coming out of me, unwillingly, yet they felt easy to say at the same time. Leon's grip tightened before he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. "Leon!" I squealed. His hand gripped my thigh as he slumped me over his shoulder. The hold the lake had on me faded away quickly. I felt just a smidge lighter. It felt like the confession released a small hold on my heart, and everything suddenly went black.LEON'S POV: I jolted awake. One second, I’m carrying Lucy up the white sand beac

    LUCY:My head was pounding hard. I felt like I had been run over.'Shh, don't let them know you're awake,' Nia whispered.My eyes were barely fluttering open when she spoke and they snapped back closed so fast. It took everything I had to try and slow down my heart rate so they didn't catch on.'Where are we?' I respond.'I don't know, our eyes are shut remember?' she retorts.Shit my brain was foggy. I was clearly not in good condition.'Right,' I said.I could tell that I was slumped over someone's shoulder like a rag doll so I continued to let me body be as limp as I possibly could.Nia felt weak. The little bit of communication she had done with me was enough to nearly take her back out. This was bad.I was piecing together what happened. I wondered where my dad would take me."Lock her up in the cell across from her boy toy," my dad's voice said nearby making my stomach flip.Boy toy? My heart skipped a beat.I hear the man carrying me chuckle and the rattle of the keys unlocking

    LEON:We searched until the wee hours of the morning. I was beyond exhausted.Dad had mind-linked us to come home and speak to him. I was itching to go back and see Lucy, but I knew I had duties to take care of, and it was something we would often have to deal with."We should talk after this meeting with Dad," Liam said, catching up to me. We were now reaching the tree line that separated the settlement area and the forest."About what? Can it wait? I want to talk to Dad and head back to Lucy. I need to see her at least a few hours before we get back out on the search," I say.My shoulders are slumped, my body is sore, and I miss my mate terribly. "We can wait. In fact, I could even come with you. I should probably check on Lucy," he sighs.I whipped my head around with what I'm sure looked like confusion on my face."She is my mate. I can take care of her," I say.I know I'm just grumpy because of everything I'm feeling right now so I snapped a little more than necessary."I know

    LIAM:My mom quickly grabbed my arm and pulled me down to my dad's empty office. As we entered, she let go of my arm and plopped down on the couch.I watched as she put her face in her hands. Her body was trembling, but I could not see any tears falling."Mom, what is happening? Who is this man? Theodore?" I ask gently, sitting down next to her.I wrapped my arm around her shoulders, trying to peek at her face that was smooshed against her palms. She finally fixed her posture and removed her hands from her face. Her eyes were burning red as if holding back tears.She shook her head left and right before responding."He isn't supposed to be reaching out to you. What did he want?" she asks, now making eye contact with me.I turn to face her better. My eyes search her face for understanding, but I'm getting nothing."He wanted me to help Lucy. He said it was important for everyone's safety," I sigh.Her eyes go wide. I watch as she opens her mouth slightly before closing it and pursing

    LUCY:I peeled my clothes off reluctantly once I got to the tree line. I shifted quickly, letting Nia come forward. She wasted no time before we were in our silver coat: white paws and white circles around our eyes.She grabbed our clothes in our mouth.'Don't worry, Lucy. We will do everything we can to find Seth,' Nia tries to reassure me.I'm not feeling confident, but I know we will do our best.We take off through the woods. I forgot how good the wind feels through our fur.'The lake first, yes?' Nia asks. She's in control. I'm shaking internally. I'm so nervous we will find Seth dead.I have to explain to her where to go. I'm not all that familiar with it.I remember being on the cliff and knowing the direction the cabin was from that point, but I can't say 100% that we are headed in the right direction once we are in the thick of the forest.'Leon is going to be furious,' Nia reminds me.'So will Jason, but they're not the boss of us, Nia. I'm tired of just sitting around and

  • The Alphas Secret Daughter   74 - Cabin Fever

    Lucy:I feel like I could suffocate from being stuck at this cabin.Can you say cabin fever? Literally."What's the deal with Seth?" Trish doesn't exactly beat around the bush. I loved this about her, though."What do you mean?" I play stupid. No one needs to know. Leon didn't say anything, but I could tell he had an inkling there was something under the surface.Not to mention, I felt like this entire thing was my fault. Seth had been through so much, and the last thing I ever wanted to do was hurt him."I can understand you are worried about Seth, but you cried, Luce. I was born during the day, but not yesterday," she says, rolling her eyes.She's intuitive. I'll give her that.It's a warmer day than it has been. We're sitting in our classic spot on the porch.Trish is gently pushing the swing with her foot; the other was curled up on the cushion.My feet barely reach the ground, so I have both of my feet criss-cross on the swing."I already have a mate, Trish. Does it really matte

    LIAM:He can tell me this information is news to me.He glances at his watch and then back up to me before pushing me out of the room."Come along," he says, motioning me to follow him out the front door."You're lying! That can't be true." I yell after him before rushing out the door and slamming it shut."WAIT! HOLD ON THOMAS!" I shout when I realize something he said.He turns around, looking at me with an unreadable expression before he sticks his index finger into the air."Theodore," he corrects me. "My name is Theodore. You can call me Theo if that's easier for your small brain to handle," he says with much irritation.Gosh, this guy is grumpy.I finally caught up with him. We're making our way through the forest. It's darker now, and I'm wondering where we are, but I have to ask him my first of many questions."You said Lucy's dad. Who is Lucy's dad, and why would he kill her?" I ask.I hear a twig snap to my left right after Theo's arm extends out in front of me, making me ha

    LIAM:I'm following this strange man through the hallway when I decide I've lost my mind.That has to be it.'He feels familiar now that we're around him,' Bo says, suddenly not the one panicking."That's because I am. It's interesting how similar our interactions have been each time," he responds as we enter the living room."Sit, sit," he gestures to the couch. I walk over to it and sit down without hesitation. I'm like an obedient child, doing as I'm told."We must make this fast; we don't have much time," he says, sitting in a chair directly in front of me."Uh, okay?" I say, not feeling all too comfortable about this situation."The first time I met you was in a dream state. We met twice, and after the second time, I realized you had forgotten your dream and all the time we spent together. I knew I would have to do this another way," he says firmly.His hands are thin, his fingers nimble and wrinkly. He is playing with a ring on his left-hand finger, twirling it around anxiously

    LUCY:He talked about Savina being in his room like it was an every day occurence.Of course I knew I had no right to be upset but I am. I'm pissed off he brought her up like he hadn't fucked her.I had to hide the smile that creeped on my lips as his dad spit out the water in his mouth. I knew some of it had to hit the back of Leon's shirt.Good. "So that's why she has been lingering around the pack house like a lost puppy." Leander laughs making my insides crawl.This she-wolf was about to piss me right the hell off.I can hear Tricia's chair screech against the floor as I clench my jaw.Leon's eyes go wide again. "Oh no, hunny, it's okay. Leon wouldn't do anything stupid," I hear Jason say as he comes around the island in the kitchen but it's too late."I swear to the Goddess Leon," I start to say before I close my eyes.I can feel the fire erupting on my hands. It's vibrating through me but I'm more in control this time.I lift my hand up, flames flickers from my fingertips."Yo

    LEON:"Is there something I should know?" my dad says looking between me and Lucy.She is sinking back into me. Normally, I wouldn't complain but I can tell she is scared.Tricia is focusing on Lucy. Her usual bravado behavior seems to have crumbled for some reason.Lucy looks up at me with her piercing blue eyes, she doesn't know what she should or shouldn't say. I respect her for leaning on me in this situation."I don't know if it's relevant to this but Seth had... developed feelings for Lucy," I say running my fingers through my hair.I lean back in the recliner thinking through the night that led up to this. I can feel Lucy's body tremble so I start tickling her back. This seems to calm her down from my experience.When we talked through the mind link, he seemed fine."Wait, Seth had feellings for your mate?" my dad asks as if I didn't make it clear already. I know what his real question is though.I close my eyes, trying to suppress the rage this makes me feel, knowing that Seth
