Wyatt I couldn't wait to get back to Hope. I had been away from her too long. I was beginning to feel the effects of not being in her presence. Jaxs was feeling it, too. He had started snapping at my warriors. Warrior training wasn't a good time, but it was a necessary evil. My warriors are strong and fearless in battle, but I want to keep them on top of their game, especially now when so much was at steak. Hope had asked me if she could come to training and spar with the warriors. But I had to tell her no, not because I doubt her abilities or skills I don't. I am sure she puts the same level of determination into her fighting as she does everything else. But nor do I doubt Jaxs response if someone was to hurt her intentionally or not, and I just can't afford to lose any men right now. Last night with Hope was incredible after we took Jaxs and Miana out for a while, as promised. I laid my mate down in a field of wildflowers. For the first time, Hope allowed me to make love to he
Wyatt It was amazing to see the transformation in Archie. He is kind and gentle, with Isabella patiently waiting for her Wolf to come back. He sat down beside her and feathered his knuckles across her face, and kissed her temple. The awww that came from the girls apparently boosted his bravo because he took her hand and laced their fingers together. Jack took a seat beside Pearl after kissing his mate he began to rub her belly while talking gibberish to their pup inside her. I couldn't help but laugh at the sight of the big bad ass Beta Jack cooing and making kissing sounds. I never thought I'd see the day when all 3 of the leaders of this pack would be contently mated with our other half, but here we were. Now, it was up to us to keep it together. I suspected that once Hope contacted her father, the ball was going to start rolling rather quickly. I only hoped we were ready. I know if I had a daughter. I would move heaven and hell to protect her. And I had no doubt that Alpha
Wyatt After eating breakfast and meeting Rose, Hope and I headed up to my office. When we got inside, I closed the door and took Hope into my arms. I could feel her nervousness. I rubbed her shoulders and kissed her forehead. "It's going to ok, I promise. Regardless, we will find a way I am not going to give you or the life we are building together up without a fight." I led her over to the desk, and we sat in our usual way. Hope had decided she didn't want to do this over the phone line, so I suggested we use the internet. She texted Leo the link to Harris Enterprises, and within a few clicks, his face appeared on my laptop. "Hope? Is everything ok?" "Yes, Leo, I am fine. There is someone I would like you to meet. Leo, this is my mate Alpha Wyatt Harris." She said, turning her head so Leo could see my mark. "No introduction needed. "Well, well, my big sister, a marked and mated woman. I am impressed, Alpha Wyatt, and I am very happy for you both." "Thank you, Leo, but ther
Wyatt I didn't have to be looking at Hope to know she was crying. I tightened my grip on her and kissed her face. I could feel Jaxs coming forward to comfort Miana as well. "I had no idea you felt this way, Daddy." She said with a small voice. "That's because you never gave me a chance. You were always so withdrawn from us. Then you just took off and refused to speak to me. What else was I supposed to do. I have always hoped you would come back to us. I believe I have Wyatt to thank for the fact that you have." "I am sorry, Daddy. I never meant to hurt you. I do need your help, but I also hope we can be a family again too. You are right. Wyatt has changed a lot in me he loves me unconditionally and has made me believe I am worthy of such love." "That's all you had to say, Mandalynn. What do you need from me?" "Do you still keep in touch with Uncle Brody?" "Yes, of course. Why? What does he have to do with Abigail's murder?" "Nothing. The creatures I believe killed my m
Larry If I had thought having the civilized werewolves around was a pain in my ass, dealing with these damn rogue son of a bitches is 10 times worse. They are leeches, plain and simple sucking, the life right out of me. It is my job to keep them under control. It is taking every bit of my power to do so. I also have the females to restrain. The migraines I am having are horrible, sometimes debilitating. I don't know how much longer I can hold them all. The fact that we are now down to 4 witches is helping me some, but it's still a lot of magic. The rouges killed another witch last night, literally fucked the bitch to death. Gary has gone to hiring humans instead since I won't let him go on the hunt for more. Another mistake, in my opinion. I am relieved that we are moving the last of them tonight. I can use a damn break. Not that Gary gives 2 shits he is living his best life on my suffering just as he has always done. I also have to try to keep Brutus in check. Which is getting m
It had taken me nearly a week to control the powers I had gained enough to break us out. We had killed 2 guards in the process. But that still wasn't enough for Thaddious. He wanted more revenge. If I had to do it over again, I swear I would leave his sorry ass right there. With the witches' powers, we incapacitated the guards and slipped into Brody's personal stash room. There, we stuffed duffle bags with tens of thousands of dollars from Brody's safe and anything else we could find of value. To add insult to injury, Gary left a note for Brody, explaining in great detail how we had killed the witch in front of her daughter. But we were not done yet. As a final fair well to our king, we killed Brody's son on our way out of his territory. The boy was only a Cub, and he didn't deserve to die. But we didn't care. Brutus had ripped the young boy to shreds and left his body tied to a tree. Since then, we have been on the run. When Gary realized that sex sales in the human world, there
Hope I sat on the side of the bed in our room with Heather purring on my lap, thinking on the day's events. Wyatt had said he needed to go check with the border patrols to make sure we were still secure on all fronts. Honestly, I think he was trying to get away from me because he's feeling a little guilty about inviting my family here. I had told him I wasn't upset with him and that I had wanted to do the same thing, but I hadn't had the nerve. I thought of the way Wyatt had said, 'Hey dad, before you go', like he had known my father forever, and I couldn't help but smile. Wyatt had told me that I was the single best thing that had ever happened to him. I didn't know if that was true, but he definitely was to me. I miss my family. I didn't realize how much until I saw them today. It's different to be on the phone with someone and hear their voice than to see their face. And to see my father say those things about loving me and my mother had made my heart sing. The only thing
WyattWe happily made our way to the dining hall hand in hand, swinging them back and forth like children would do. Once we entered the room, Hope went straight to Sandy and sat down with her. I understood that Hope was dedicated to our pack, and it was important to her to make sure they were ok, but right now, I wanted her all to myself. Having just found Hope was ready to have a pup still had my mind on overdrive. I just wanted to feed her and get her nocked up. I sighed heavily and looked around the room spotting Jack and Pearl I took another longing look at Hope, then made my way over to the table where they were sitting and plopped down in a chair sulking a little. "Alpha." They greeted me. I nodded my head in response. "I see our Luna is tending to her pack." Jack said. I don't know if I was being that transparent or if Jack just knew me that well, but he gave me an understanding smile. "Yes, she is. Her family will be joining us in a couple of days for her Luna ceremony
Wyatt "Wyatt!" I felt Hope's hand pushing on my chest. I looked over at her on the bed, and her face was pale. "What's wrong, little mate?" I asked her, sitting up and pulling her close to me. "I don't feel so good." She said breathless. "I think it's time." It took me a minute to realize what she was saying. "The baby is coming?" I asked, excited. "I think so. My water just broke!" Hope said grimacing in pain. Frantically, I get out of bed, trying to remember all the things I was supposed to remember. My mind was a blank! 'We need to get her to the hospital.' Jaxs helpfully pointed out. 'Right! Hospital.' I say to him. "I need to change my gown." Hope was saying. "I am soaking wet." I went over to her dresser and got out a clean gown. I came back to the side of the bed and helped her take the wet one off and slide the clean one over her head. Then I scooped her up and headed to the hospital. Linking to doc Edwards that we were on the way. "Push, Hope! Oh baby, you are doi
Wyatt I was standing behind the archway. impatiently waiting to see Hope and Leith come toward me. This is the moment that I have been waiting for since the first time I laid eyes on Hope. She was finally going to be all mine. The icing on the cake was that we were going to have a family. Hope's other brother Levi had arrived and turns out he's my sister's mate. I looked over to Talley, who was beaming brightly standing beside Levi. She looked beautiful in her soft pink gown. Jack and Pearl were standing to my right, and Archie and Isabella were to my left. The music I had chosen began to softly play, and my heart skipped a beat. This was it. I felt a little unsure about my appearance. I didn't usually do tuxedos, but this was a special occasion. I just hope that my mate would like it. I tugged nervously at my collar. The doors to the back of the ballroom opened, and Hope and Leith appeared in the doorway. Hope looked absolutely amazing. The dress was beautiful on her, thou
Hope My mother, Pearl, Talley, and Isabella were all gathered around me. Each of them were doing something to my face and hair. I was enjoying being pampered, but I was also ready to get on with this shin dig. William had been very restless. I have to keep shifting in the chair and adjusting us. Isabella was telling us that she had just found out she was pregnant. I was happy for her, but I was not envious of the 1st trimester's sickness that was plaguing her at the moment. I told her not to bother with the seltzer water and crackers because they don't work. I was thankful when they were done looking at the mirror in myself. I had to admit. I was quite stunning. Pearl had put my hair in a 1/2 down half up updo and put little rhinestones along the sides. I still insisted on very light makeup. Who wants to take all that stuff off at the end of the night? I was just about to get up and have them help me get into my gown when there was a knock at my door. I looked to the 3 ladies
Wyatt Hope had been quietly sitting on our bed, lost in her thoughts when I got back from my office. I went and picked her up cradle style and settled us back down onto the bed. "Good morning, beautiful." I said to her, placing a soft kiss to the side of her face. "Did you enjoy your bubble bath this morning?" "I sure did. Would you like to give me another one?" I chuckled as much as I would like to do that. We don't have time right now. I wanted Hope to see the ballroom before tonight's ceremony. And of course, I wanted to talk to William. I placed my hand on her belly, and my boy gave me a swift kick. "Easy there, little one," I said to him. "You're going to kick a whole in your mommy." "He has been very active this morning. I think he is excited, too." Hope said smiling, putting her hands over my mine. " Take a walk with me, little mate." I said, pulling her to her feet and wrapping my arms around her waist. We made our way to the ballroom, and Hope's eyes lit up.
Hope It was finally the day of my Luna ceremony. I have never been so nervous before in my entire life. Wyatt had gone above and beyond with my gown and my jewelry. But he always does when it comes to me, and he keeps saying I am the one who never ceases to amaze him. I was served breakfast in bed with strict instructions not to lift a finger to do anything today. My mate had given me a bubble bath, which, of course, he wound up joining me in. I have never made love in water before, but it was definitely something I would do again. My belly is swelling rather rapidly. Our pup is very active. I can't seem to keep my hands off of my mid-section. Neither can Wyatt. I remember the day in the dining hall when Jack was talking to Cayden. Wyatt had laughed at him, but he does the same thing now. Except Wyatt sings to our little boy. That is what we are having a precious little baby boy. Doctor Edwards, did the ultrasound a couple of days ago. We have finished his nursery, and Wyatt h
Wyatt When we finally got home. Everyone was geared up for the Luna ceremony. I insisted Hope stay in bed and rest for a few days. Of course, I had to stay there with her to keep her satisfied. But it was a sacrifice I was willing to make. She was recovering well and growing bigger every day. Doc Edwards had given her and our pup a clean bill of health. Though neither of us knew really what to expect. We were excited for the months to come. Jack and Pearl had a brand new baby boy they had named Cayden. Pearl had brought him to see Hope since she wasn't allowed to leave our bedroom. He looked just like Jack. I was happy for them. We still hadn't told anyone about our child being the magical source to end all sources. I told Hope it was up to her how much we divulged and when and to whom. I could careless myself. I just wanted to be a daddy. We would find out soon if it was a boy or a girl, Hope was excited. Brody had found Jacob's body inside the Hard Dick's in Durwood, mauled
Wyatt I stepped out of Hope's cell just as Cordia was hitting the bottom step. She looked at me with cold death in her eyes, I raised my hands out to my sides and winked at her as if to say hit me with your best shot bitch. I had already told Jaxs what I wanted him to do. I really hoped this worked. Cordia floated towards me, raising her hands in the air. She let the lightning bolts fly. They hit us square in the chest. I stumbled backward, not stopping until we hit the wall and slid down. My chest was on fire, but I have a high tolerance for pain. I called to Hope she was standing in the middle of the cell staring at us. I called to her again, and she stepped forward. Cordia was coming closer to me. She raised her hands and shocked me again. I screamed in pain. It was a little dramatic, but I was hoping it would do the trick. Hope came out of the cell and positioned herself between Cordia and I. "Leave my mate alone, Cordia!" She said, but it was not Hope's voice any longer.
Wyatt, Leith, and Leo- Cordia's Layer As soon as I read the spell to reveal Cordia's layer, the structure appeared before us out of the side of a huge mountain. So did the 5 rouge werewolves laying in front of the entrance. I had never been so happy to see rogues in my entire life. I shifted, and Jaxs took great pleasure in ripping them to shreds. Dean and Angus just let him go while watching our backs. Now that the magical protection had been lifted, I tried to use the mind link to reach Hope, remembering what Abigail had said about finding her. Before I had the chance to open the link, we were being attacked by what I can only describe as demonic minions. They were jumping on our shoulders from off the ceiling and morphing out of the damn walls! The 3 of us were holding our own against them. The problem was that the little bastards were too fast for us to get a good hold on them. I threw the potion Hannah had given me to put the freeze on like Hope does. It worked, we shifted,
Hope Cordia hasn't been to visit me recently. I wish I could tell if it was night or day. Not that it would matter, I suppose. As crazy as it sounds, I am beginning to wish she would come. At least I would know she hadn't left me to die down here. Since telling me she wanted my pup, she hasn't been back. I still hadn't figured out how I was going to stop her from taking the baby once it is born, but I still have a few months to figure that out. The one thing I have is plenty of time to think. I know it may come down to me having no choice but to embrace the full capacity of my powers. And that scares me. It always has. I haven't used my explosions in so long, I don't even know if I can anymore. But I will try my best to blast that bitch to kngdom come before, I allow her to take my child if, I die trying then so be it. It is a family tradition, after all. I needed to try, but I was afraid of her catching me, so instead, I dropped my head into my hands and began to cry. That's
