Destinee POV.Walking through the packhouse with Titus next to me, the atmosphere is sombre and depressed.Titus takes my hand and leads me towards the cemetery. I stop in my tracks, my throat closes over, and I fight the tears. Titus gives my hand a squeeze and I look up to him, the tears falling.“It’s OK. they are with Selene now, roaming the fields of Elysium with their ancestors.” All I can do is nod. Walking closer to the cemetery, I see 6 coffins and I choke on a whimper.“Destinee, I’m here,” Aura chokes and whimpers in my head. The guilt is eating me alive. This is my fault.Stepping closer, I let go of Titus’s hand and walked toward Dahlia’s parents. I lower my head and stop in front of her coffin.I walk over and place my hand on the top of it.“You are at peace,” I hear whimpers and I turn my gaze towards the pack members and I straighten up.“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. If I had told Alpha Titus the reason Aura attacked Crystal, this wouldn’t be happening. I promise you all now
Destinee POV.Pulling up in the city, Titus takes my hand and kisses my knuckles. Pulling my attention away from the towering buildings and the wolves going about their daily business.“Today is about you. I thought we could go shopping and have a romantic dinner together.” Blinking at him, he wants to go shopping and have dinner, turning my gaze back to the little boutiques and cafes. I take a deep breath and gaze back at him. The grimace must have spoken volumes. All Titus could do was laugh.Ok, granted, I’m not like every she-wolf who loves shopping and being dressed up. I would rather stick pins in my eyes than shop.“Erm, yeah, sounds fun.” I say, trying to smile but I’m sure it made me look like I was constipated.Aura is rolling laughing in my mind, traitor. She knows I hate this. Shopping is a torture in itself.“Come on, it will be fun, besides you deserve a treat. Let me treat you, baby.” He says, giving me puppy dog eyes. Scoffing at him, I am not amused by his antics, so
Destinee POV.“Destinee?” I held my breath as my dad called my name in disbelief. Titus growled in warning, and I shook my head. I turned my attention back to Titus and took his hand in mine to soothe him. And it worked. The tension left his body. A touch from your mate has the power to calm the angriest of mates.“It really is you.” I released my hold on Titus’s hand. I stood up, glaring at my dad no scratch that my sperm donor.“Yes, it’s me. I don’t have anything to say to either of you.” Staring him down and growling low as he backs up. I scoff. He is not a strong Alpha at all.All the years I lived in fear when I didn’t receive Aura, he tormented me and abused me. Looking at him now, I feel nothing but hostility towards him.“Sweetie, you need to come home,” turning my gaze to the egg donor, I laughed at her and her pet name for me.“Sweetie? Don’t make me laugh. Also, I don’t have to do anything. You both are dead to me. But if you want, I’m sure Aura will make that a reality.”
Titus POV.Today had been what was needed. Destinee had been through enough, 5 days in the cells, then the attack losing Dahlia, the 5 days of mourning and being guilt-ridden.It hurt my heart knowing she was in pain, her heart was broken. I could feel it all through the bond. I had to give her space, but all I wanted to do was to just hold her.I needed to show her she wasn’t alone, and it was ok to move on. I know she still blames herself. However, as heartless as it sounds, life has to go on. I decided I could no longer leave her to her depression locked away in her room. So I put my big boy undies on and took charge.I know how much Destinee detests shopping, but still I took her; it was either going to work or fail and I’m happy to say it worked.When she wanted to play the game with the shop assistant’s I think she was more shocked that I said I would play along, and it felt great to see her smile and come out of her comfort zone. The red dress I picked for her was for a joke be
Destinee POV.It overwhelmed me seeing my pack, my family after so long. All I could do at that moment was cry. Janelle and Marnie ran to me and crashed to the floor, and they pulled me into their embrace. We cried together.“How? Why are you all here?” I ask, shaking in shock that they are all here.“Well, you’re our Alpha. Wherever you go, we go. We missed you, girl. We are pack, family, and we all stick together.” Marnie said to me, with tears streaming down her cheeks. I choked and pulled her into a tight hug.Aura is crying in my head. She has missed them as much as I have. They accepted us both, our family of misfits.“Destinee.” I look away from Marnie and Janelle and stare up at Josh, Leon, and Leon’s mate.Titus helps me stand and I thank him, before walking to them and throwing myself into the arms of Josh.“Missed you doll. How are you and Aura?” he asks, wiping his tears and I wipe mine.“We’re good, but why are you all here?” I ask, and Leon scoffs. Turning my attention t
Destinee POV.Hearing his words made my core tighten and the butterflies to erupt in anticipation. I bite my bottom lip nervously, ok this is normal. He is my mate and I want him just as badly.But what if I make a tit out of myself? What if he doesn’t like it? What if I don’t do it right? Will it hurt? Aarrggh. Why? Why do I torture myself like this? I’m new to this. I’m still a fucking virgin, for fuck’s sake. FUCK!“Aura, help. What do I do?” I panic, thinking of the what if’s? I pace my bedroom, fidgeting with my fingers, think Destinee, think.“Babe, calm down. I get it you’re worried you will mess this up, but seriously, how do you mess up sex? It’s not possible. So what if you’re a virgin? Let Titus lead after all he has done it before.” I stop pacing and I groan. I didn’t need to remember that.“Rub it in why don’t you Aura? This is not helping. Do you have to remind me of that bitch and the pain they both caused us when I’m seriously ready to go to his room and launch myself
Titus POV.The way Destinee looked at me when she bid me goodnight before closing her bedroom door. Left me wanting to bulldoze through the door and take her, but I know it is her first time. So I smiled at the closed door and entered my room.“Mate wants us, Titus. Go to her, go to her now.” Orion is so pushy. He wants her just as much as I do. Only difference is he has already had Aura.“Orion, I won’t force her. She is nervous and overthinking. I can feel it through the bond.” I tell him with a sigh as I walk to the bathroom to take a shower. Turning the shower on and stripping off, I enter. The water cascades down me.“She loves you Titus, she is nervous because she doesn’t want to disappoint you. She is comparing herself to Crystal. I can feel it.” He says and I sigh. This is my fault, of course she is going to think like this. Knowing her mate betrayed her with the very woman who killed her friend.Orion pushes images of Destinee in my mind. Of her when we showered together, the
Destinee POV.Waking in Titus’s arms, I finally feel at home. The ache between my legs was a reminder of last night’s antics. Thank the Goddess I am a werewolf and we heal quickly, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to move. Even after we had finished in the bedroom. We ended up doing it in the bath, then the shower, then again in the bedroom. We didn’t finish until the sun came up.Titus said I was greedy and that he had unleased a monster. But in my defence, he loved it just as much as I did. Besides, werewolf’s are one of two things: either they are horny or hungry and I am both, but right now I need to pee.I shift in his hold, desperately needing to use the bathroom, when his arms tighten around me.“Titus…Titus…wake up.” I say, trying to wriggle out of his hold. I really need to use the bathroom.“Mmm, stop wriggling. Sleep.” He mumbles, but doesn’t release me. I need to be smart about this. I wriggle around to face him, and do the only thing I can and that is kiss him.He kisses me b
Epilogue 2 Dahlia.15 years after the wedding.Dahlia POV.“Dahlia, come on, get up. You have training.” I groan and roll over to hide under my quilt. Why do you hate me? I don’t want to go to training, but mom and dad said I have to.It’s the bloody weekend, for fuck’s sake. Not that it makes any difference. I have to train every day after school, but could it kill them to let me have some me time? Of course it would.Today is my 16th birthday, and tomorrow is the day of the anniversary since the attack. I have been told it will be me who will lead all the wolves into the future, the Alpha of Alpha’s but do I want it? No, I do not.It’s too much to handle. Sure I have mom, dad, grandma, and the Beta’s not forgetting uncle Fen, Uncle Theo, and Aunty Mia. But is it too much to ask that I can just be me?Dragging myself up out of my bed, I head to the bathroom to get ready. Looking at myself in the mirror, I have long black hair and bright blue eyes. I clutch my stomach and grit my teet
Epilogue 1.Fenrir POV.It has been a year since the wedding and I have been sent to a pack in California. The Blood Moon pack. They are having issues with rogues and so I have been called in to pass judgement. From the information I have been given the Alpha, Theo, doesn’t want to have the responsibility. It doesn’t surprise me being an Alpha is difficult.Opening a portal outside the border of the pack, I have come with my Beta thorn. He is a scary-looking man with a scar that runs down his face.Thorn is my general of the armies of hell, but since the treaty was signed, he has helped me pass judgement and the execution of the rogues who are causing problems for the packs.Stepping up to the gates of the pack border, I am approached by a guard. My eyes blaze as my wolf comes forward.“Please inform Alpha Theo, Fenrir from the council is here with my Beta Thorn to pass judgement on the rogues that you captured.” I take out the letter and pass it to him through the gate.He skims it a
Destinee POV.Walking towards my mate, my heart has calmed, and the sick feeling has gone. My eyes are locked solely on him. The world around me fades and it’s just me and him. As I near him, I see tears in his beautiful green eyes. He looks handsome in his black tuxedo with a pale blue bowtie the same colour as my bridesmaid’s dresses.Edging closer, a smile spreads on his face as it does mine. Stopping at the podium. Fenrir and Sadia both step forward to give my hand over to Titus.Taking my hand in his, he looks at me with a gaze full of love.“You look beautiful, my queen.” I feel a blush creep up my cheeks.“Thank you, you look handsome.” I smile as I tell him.Councilmen Hayes smiles at me and I smile back. Turning my attention to Titus. Councilmen Hayes starts the ceremony. Gazing into his eyes, I don’t hear what is said I’m lost in his eyes.Titus squeezes my hand, pulling me back to the moment, and I look at Councilmen Hayes.“Alpha Destinee? You have prepared your vows, is t
Destinee POV.THREE MONTHS LATER.Life has returned to normal now that the treaty is in place and the hunter’s worked quickly to sort out the rogues wolves who were causing issues. Fenrir over saw their punishments. He had them killed, and they were sent to hell for their punishment. As for their wolves, they were sent back to Selene for her to punish them.Today is the day I have been dreading, my wedding day. I mean dread in a nice way; I keep thinking something is going to happen. Like the bogey man waiting to pounce or something.Laying in bed with Dahlia eating her breakfast, she is now off the breast and eats solid foods. I say eat. She prefers to wear it more than anything. She is now walking and says a few words. With her having the blood of two alpha’s and a powerful wolf, she is more advanced than most Alpha pups. It won’t be long before she is running a mock in the pack.A knock on the bedroom door pulls me out of my thoughts, and I know it’s Sadia and Kendra. Kendra is exp
Titus POV.Sitting watching and listening to what Destinee was saying, I don’t even need to open my mouth. I have every bit of confidence in what she has to say. I learnt a long time ago that when Destinee sets her mind on something, she will achieve it in the end, plus I know how stubborn she is.Watching as Fenrir and she both shifted and hearing the shocked and panicked screams from the hunter’s I smiled. The hunter’s now know they are no match for us. Even without Aura and Fenrir, they would still be no match for us.Councilmen Hayes and I remain seated. We both look at each other with smiles on our faces. The smell of fear ferments the air, and I chuckle. Standing, I straighten my suit jacket and walk towards my mate. Standing in front of her and Fenrir, I face the hunter’s who cower in the corner, shaking in fear.“Now that you have met the two most powerful wolves on the planet. I can tell you know we mean business. Now imagine, if you will. The vampire king, the dragon king, t
Destinee POV.Fenrir left no doubt to his death at the hands of the Siren Queen. But I was wrong. He returned with her agreement, which I was shocked about and so today we are at the Hunter’s Organisation. To talk to their leader, a man called Darius to bring the proposal and the signed agreement of the Alpha heads from the Supernatural Council.Looking at the building in front of me, you can smell the fear and hatred from here. Fenrir and I came with Councilmen Hayes and Titus.“Let’s get this over with.” I say as we all walk forward. Titus holds my hand as we walk up the steps of the courthouse. The doors open automatically. All eyes are watching us and some look at us with pure hate and contempt, but I raise my head higher and walk with purpose.Ignoring the looks from the disgusted faces of the hunter’s in this building, we walk towards the reception desk. We have an appointment and to say that Darius was shocked receiving my call is an understatement, but he agreed to see us.“We
Destinee POV.Yesterday was one of the best day’s of my life. Emerging the pack’s and Titus’s proposal. I never thought that I could achieve all that I have, but hey this I where we are now.The transition will be difficult for some members, not just from Venom Fang, but for some members of Snow Moon. Today, Titus and I are going over what else needs doing to ensure the safety of everyone. The job of an Alpha is never over. We have to expect things before they happen whilst keeping our members content and free of worry.Sitting at my desk in my own office, Fenrir enters. Titus and I both agreed we would have separate offices. We agreed that the Alpha role would be shared equally, but as much as I love him. I can’t work when he is constantly dry humping me. Much to his annoyance, he agreed to give me my own office opposite his.We have had to build an additional extension on to the packhouse to accommodate more wolves and their families. Not forgetting more homes, shops, businesses, an
Destinee POV.Six MONTHS LATER.Today is the day that we merge the packs. Everyone pulled their weight and Titus brought in new businesses to start up in the pack. Some of his contacts in the human world helped with the merger.We stand on the border that separates Venom Fang from Snow Moon. Dahlia is now walking and is into everything. Anubis is always by her side, and I am grateful for that. If anything, he helps her get into mischief. She is a handful, but I have the best support team around me to help with her.The council and local Alpha’s are in attendance today and so are members of the packs on each side. I stand with Titus and our Betas overlooking the crowd.Councilmen Hayes has been a great help in this entire process. I was wrong about him; he has the best interests for our kind and he wants us to live in peace and harmony. We still had the odd rogue attack, but we are putting measures in place to stop them. The war was to show our strength and unity. Some, however, still
Titus POV.Destinee is heartbroken for what she needed to do. I know it wasn’t easy for her to do and she has shown just how strong she is and no-one can say she isn’t.Watching as Councilmen Hayes oversees the Alpha ritual. Destinee was pledged in as the new Alpha of The Snow Moon Pack. Those that hurt her or turned a blind eye in the past have been dealt with.Aura stripped the Beta and Gamma of their wolves and title in full view of the pack. The Elder received the same treatment. The followers of Natalie who abused Destinee were sent to the council to decide their fates. Because they didn’t hold rank in the pack, Destinee thought it would be better for the council to deal with them. As she said, there had been enough bloodshed for that day, and I agreed with her.We have been here now for a week. Destinee has been busy sorting out the pack finances and issues within the pack.However, you can already feel the change. The pack isn’t shrouded in despair as they were when we first go
