The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Two
It had been two days since Brielle and Ryker had completed their bond, also meaning it had been two days since Brielle had come into contact with River. His conflicted feelings had caused him to avoid her like the plague, knowing the painful strain of jealousy that was bound to consume him once he saw Ryker’s mark on her neck. River was delighted his brother had gotten the ending he deserved, after all Ryker had never been conflicted over his desires for Brielle, but there was a part of River that hated how easily Ryker could forget everything they had been through. Although, the more River thought about it, the more taking a chance and being with Brielle started to outweigh anything his father had done or said. River let out a deep breath as he threw another pebble into a nearby stream, watching how the pebble created a ripple effect as it collided with the water. “You can’t avoid her forever, River.” Kane grumbled, fed up with his human counterpart. River scowled. “I’m not avo
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Three
The four Alpha’s gathered around the Queens desk as they eagerly anticipated their instructions for the day. No one dared mutter a word just yet, their skepticism outweighed their curiosity as they watched the High Priestess with alert eyes. Gladdis hummed to herself as she rummaged through her bag filled with potions and lotions, feeling rather amused as the curious wolves watched her like a hawk. She received the same reaction many times, once her identity was revealed individuals never knew whether to be scared for their life or in awe of her presence. Gladdis preferred it that way, everyone should feel a little bit of both during an encounter with her. “Ah!” Gladdis tutted, clasping onto something in her bag. “There they are.” She muttered, mainly to herself. She set her bag to the side, before placing several bracelets along the desk worktop. Everyone’s eyes landed on the beaded bracelets, only adding to their silent confusion. The bracelets were gold chains laced with beaded

“Stop messing with it, that’s the last one.” Ryker snapped at Reid, who frowned as he quit fidgeting with the bracelet around his wrist. Brielle moved her gaze from the window, grinning at the youngest of her mates. Even in the most worrisome moments, he managed to make her smile. “I never considered you to be a jewellery type of guy, Reid.” She teased. He quirked his brow, letting a smirk draw on his lips. “I’m full of surprises.” He winked. “Did he have to look so good when he said that.” Ocean groaned. “It’s very distracting.” Brielle shook her head at him, chuckling softly, before returning her attention to the scenery outside. Bubbles of anxiety formulated in the pit of her stomach, she could only prey they got there on time for the plan to run smoothly. “Are we there yet?” Reid groaned, quickly growing impatient now he couldn’t twiddled with the beads on his wrist to pass time. “It’s like having a child.” Scarlett complained, narrowing her eyes on Reid, earning a laugh fro
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Five
Brielle furrowed her brows as she studied the empty space Zion was previously sat just moments ago. They needed to find a way to stop him from doing that, which sounded much easier than it clearly was. A tingling sensation shot through her wrist, causing her attention to divert. The feeling only lasted a couple of seconds, but unlike when she felt the touch of her mates, this tingle was sharp.. painful even. She thought back to moments ago, when the rogue king stood before her. How had he managed to do that? One second she was laughing in his face due to his delusions, but the next she couldn’t take her eyes off of him. It was as though she was hypnotised, being drawn to him completely against her will yet utterly unable to do anything about it. It must have been magic, but how could that be if she had her bracelet? Brielle’s eyes widened.. the rogue who had the cheek to take a snap at her tail, it must have come off then. She groaned inwardly, frustrated by how their chance had
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Six
“Where are you guys? Dad’s about to commit treason against the King if you aren’t back soon.” Harlie linked Brielle. The four alpha’s were making their way back through the surrounding woods, finally remembering why they were there in the first place after that quick distraction. Brielle’s cheeks flushed as she crinkled her nose. They’d have to come up with some form of excuse as to why they’d been gone longer than necessary without Zion. “We’ll be two minutes, we got a bit… caught up. Can you bring me some clothes?” Ryker tightened his arm around Brielle’s waist as they came into the clearing, although they hadn’t gotten the result they wanted in terms of capturing Zion, matters between his brothers and his mate were progressing just as he had hoped. The four stood at the edge of the training grounds as Harlie ran over with an oversized T-shirt for Brielle to throw on, along with three pairs of navy, Amaris joggers for the triplets. It wouldn’t bode well for any of them if they m
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Seven
After Reid continued to apply his boyish charm, David eased off the interrogation with his daughters mates. Granted, he still wasn’t pleased by Brielle’s decision, but she was right when she said it was her decision to make, not his. Besides, it turned out Reid was right. He really does have a way with parents, 10 minutes after declaring his forfeit of the challenges David had taken the alpha under his arm and headed into the pack house for a beer. Brielle, Harlie and Sophia found themselves rendered speechless as they watched the pair joke over Brielle’s stubbornness. Sophia was happy her daughter had embraced the sacred bond she was blessed with, adoring the way Brielle’s face lit up as she interacted with them. King Nathaniel and Queen Serena had headed back to Amaris shortly after being updated on the situation with Zion, they decided the next best course of action was to liaise with Gladdis and attempt to track down the witches helping him. Brielle, her three mates, Harlie an
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Eight
Ryker opened his arms for Brielle’s embrace as she and Reid wandered into the living room with wide smiles. Her eyes softened as she noticed her readily awaiting mate, before taking a seat next to him on the brown, vintage leather sofa and resting her head against his chest. Ryker placed a soft kiss on her forehead as Reid plonked himself down beside them. Harlie and Scarlett were sat on a matching sofa opposite the three alphas, both wearing knowing smirks as they eyed Brielle. River was sprawled out in an arm chair at the side of Ryker, flicking through the channels on the tv as he considered the film options. Scarlett shuffled her fingers through her bowl of popcorn, still grinning at her alpha. “Nice of you both to join us.” She teased, earning herself an eye roll from Brielle. “Was the shower taking too long to heat up, Bri?” Harlie pondered, before taking a handful of Scarlett’s popcorn and shoving it in her mouth. Scarlett scoffed. “I think the problem was trying to cool i
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Forty Nine
After a morning of emotional goodbyes, the group headed back to Amaris Castle just as they had planned. Unlike the previous day, the car journey back was much less eventful. Reid blasted out his favourite Kelly Clarkson songs, Scarlett grumbled over his ability to stay on key, Harlie was still in a daze over watching the Queen in action, River was concentrating on driving and Brielle and Ryker calmly enjoyed the views from the backseat. River would sometimes catch Brielle’s gaze through the rear-view mirror, but any thoughts remained unsaid. They had made progress on this trip, progress which they both hoped would continue. But they both knew they had a lot to discuss before any real developments could be made. A small smile fell on Brielle’s lips as she thought back to how he took care of her last night, she didn’t know he had that side to him and it had been a welcomed surprise. He held her in his arms until the sun rose and despite all the conflict between them, she felt comple

The Battle Of The Alpha’s Epilogue
It had been an intense year for the Alphas as they settled into their new roles. Merging the two packs had taken some serious work, it had taken a while for the natural rivalry between the two to die down and accept each other as one. Fortunately, the Blood Moon members immediately accepted Brielle as one of their own. Whether that was due to their own kindness or fear of being castrated by the triplets was unclear, but Brielle was grateful nevertheless. David had finally come to terms with his little girl being mated, not that he had been given much choice. Although, there had been a moment where Brielle feared David would be pushed over the edge when it came out Harlie was mated to the Blood Moon beta, Lucas. But just like the triplets, Lucas had managed to charm his way into David’s good graces, after Sophia threatened to have him sleeping on the couch if he didn’t give up his hostile persona. Harlie and Lucas were the perfect match, both incredibly loyal to one another and to
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Sixty Five
It had been an emotional morning for many as everyone shared their goodbyes. Brielle especially found leaving Amaris unexpectedly hard, so much had changed for her there and so many wonderful memories had been created, leaving was bittersweet. But as the saying goes; as one door closes, another door opens. Brielle and the triplets had been discussing over the last few days how to merge the packs, with as little disruption as possible. Luckily, as there wasn’t much distance between the two lands, a solution was found. Both Brielle and River had sent links to their pack members asking them to meet on common ground between the two, explaining they would be there shortly to make an announcement. River set his palm on Brielle’s thigh, whilst his other hand remained tight on the steering wheel. He noticed a disappointed expression written across her face, one that had him frowning. “What is it, Brie?” He wondered. Brielle turned to meet his gaze, before briefly shaking her head with a s

Brielle danced the night away, laughing and drinking with Harlie and Scarlett, not having a care in the world as since the day they first arrived at Amaris, they could finally relax. The girls secured their spot in the middle of the dance floor and moved like their life depended on it, spilling drinks as they joked with one another. Reid, to no surprise to Brielle, regularly joined in with their hysterics, twirling Brielle around and throwing her over his shoulder as he danced to the beat. River and Ryker made a few appearances by their side, but found themselves repeatedly being dragged away to discuss business with other Alpha’s. Many present were Alpha’s the triplets had already built contractual relationships with, so unfortunately they couldn’t be avoided. But Brielle didn’t mind, this was a celebration for Shadow. She would have plenty of time with the triplets as the night came to a close, the last few hours her sole focus was to have fun with Harlie and Scarlett. Brielle h
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Sixty Three
The next day, River and Brielle spent the morning fooling around in the sheets of their bed, neither being prepared to leave the loved-up cocoon they had engulfed themselves in. But finally, after what seemed to take every ounce of their inner strength, they managed to drag themselves out of bed and head back to Amaris in preparation of the celebratory ball being thrown in Brielle’s honour. Upon her return, and after squeezing in some time with Ryker and Reid, Brielle headed to her room to get ready for the evening with Harlie and Scarlett. “So.. how was it?!” Scarlett questioned as she wrapped her hair around the curling iron. “And do not spare any details, I'm living vicariously through you these days.” Brielle snorted, shaking her head at the gamma before setting down her lipstick and turning to meet two sets of eager eyes. She pressed her lips together, despite having just finished her makeup, and let a cheesy grin grow on her lips. "Do you remember when he told me I'd be begg
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Sixty Two
Brielle hurried to her room to gather her belongings, she wasn’t sure where she was going thanks to River’s vagueness but he had told her to grab some clothes for the morning, apparently they wouldn’t be returning tonight.The excitement was pumping through her, her hands racing through her wardrobe and grabbing the first thing she saw. He’d told her she was fine in what she was wearing, although she had decided to throw a pair of leggings on anyway. She didn’t quite fancy strolling through the castle in nothing but a tee again.“Come in,” Brielle called out as she heard a knock on her door. Harlie glided into the room with Scarlett following closely behind, before they both took a seat on Brielle’s unmade bed.Scarlett perched her brow as she watched Brielle throw random items into a bag. “And where do you think you’re going?” She teased.Brielle grinned, side eyeing her gamma. “River is taking me somewhere for the night, although I’m not sure where.” She tried to hide her excitement
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Sixty One
Upon her return to Amaris, Brielle had spent the last day with her loved ones, cherishing the moments as much as she could. Scarlett and Reid had even managed to put their bickering to the side for the day, instead focusing on being grateful for Brielle’s safety. David and Sophia had returned to Shadow with their warriors earlier this afternoon, after displaying significant reluctance to ever leave Brielle’s side again. David only agreed to leave once he gave the triplets a stern talking to, reiterating that if his little girl so much as lost a single hair from her head moving forward, he’d cut off their prized possessions and feed them to Gladdis’ pythons. The triplets didn’t often feel threatened, but the look on David’s face told them he’d go to the ends of the world to follow through on his promise. The King and Queen had been absent most of the day, working with Gladdis on the appropriate punishment for Nimue. Under usual circumstances, she would fall under Gladdis’ jurisdicti
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Sixty
Leaving no time to spare, the moment the cloaking enchantment was broken, warriors in their wolf form dashed towards the dirty grey architecture. The charcoaled, grey building was clear as day to them now. It was hard to believe this three level building wasn’t visible to the eye merely moments ago. But the building wasn’t the only revelation following the breaking of the spell, dozens and dozens of rogues surrounded the scene staring back at the warriors in a dazed state. Under usual circumstances, the element of surprise would have always been a priority. But in this scenario, there wasn’t any choice. Seemingly, as the three groups continued to gain a closer advantage, the confused rogues swiftly began transitioning into their wolf counterparts. One by one, with no fear in the world, they charged towards the warriors. Where they lacked in strength and numbers, their feral state made up for. Death didn’t frighten them. King Nathaniel’s wolf, Roman, was the first the shed blood. Ch
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Fifty Nine
“You’ll be split into three teams.” King Nathaniel announced to the sea of warriors before him. “We need to be able to remain in contact with each pack at all times, meaning the three packs need to be integrated. One will be led by myself, one will be led by the Blood Moon alpha’s and one will be led by David, Alpha Regent of Shadow.” David firmly nodded in the King’s direction, his game face never faltering as he folded his arms across his chest. Under usual circumstances, in Brielle’s absence, he would allow Harlie to step up as interim Alpha. But with his eldest’s life hanging in the balance, he couldn’t allow room for mistakes. “My group will take the west, River’s group will take east and David’s group will take south.” The King continued, surveying his eyes over the 300 hundred bodies. “Gladdis and the Fer Fung will be located north, in the neck of the forest. They will need to remove the cloaking enchantment placed on Zion’s hide out, but once this happens we have a matter of
The Battle Of The Alpha’s Fifty Eight
Rivers grip on the steering wheel tightened as they drove through the Amaris gate. The uneasy feeling gathering in the pit of his stomach only worsened with each passing moment, further moments where Brielle was out of his grasp. They had come so close, so incredibly close to finally being together and just when he had her in his arms, she was snatched from beneath him. It was taking every ounce of his self-control to remain calm, although he was on the verge of snapping at any moment. Seven SUV’s filled with the best of Blood Moon’s warriors followed behind him and his brothers, each filled with angst and ready to eliminate the threat which stole their new alpha. They had never met Brielle, but she was one of them now. No one hurt one of their own. River forcefully yanked the handbrake as he parked outside the castle, not caring in the slightest that he wasn’t in a parking spot and instead had just pulled up anywhere. He couldn’t climb out of the vehicle quick enough, with his b
