Rogues!
Filthy fucking beasts!
Gianna and I had just gotten dressed into the clothes we left at the edge of the forest when the fuckers attacked.
I know what they want; they want Gianna because she’s my mate.
I am The Bloody Alpha; after all, what better way to get to me than through my mate?
Victor, the rogue leader, has been after me since I took over Silver Paw. He hasn’t been seen for a while, and I hoped the fucker was dead. But that was wishful thinking when I knew deep down that he was still out there.
I should have been looking for him, and I was, and I still have people out there looking for him. But I also should have known better than to let my guard down.
I knew someone out there would come for Gianna should I clai
I press the antiseptic pad to the cut above Lorcan’s eye. I know I don’t need to; it will heal within the next few minutes. But I can’t seem to stop myself.I’m worried because he should have healed already. The fact he hasn’t healed tells me how severe those injuries are.I don’t even want to imagine what would have happened had Lorcan been human.‘He’d be dead; that’s what would have happened.’‘Thank you, Lyra!’I don’t want to hear it, so I cut her off.Seeing Lorcan’s wolf fighting those rogues, seeing the dozens upon dozens of wolves attacking him, something in me snapped. I was so scared that I’d lose him, and I could barely contain myself.Lo
“I killed someone today,” I lay my hand on Lorcan’s neck, feeling his pulse thumping against my fingertips. “But if I had to kill a thousand rogues to protect you, I would.”A smile creeps across Lorcan’s face. “Ditto, little wolf. Are you hurt anywhere? That rogue attacked you, and I doubt you were unscathed.”I shake my head. “It was nothing that isn’t already healed.”Lorcan lifts the shirt I’m wearing, making me laugh as he checks me for wounds. He tells me to turn around so he can check my back, and I laugh again.Once Lorcan is finished checking me over, he covers me with the shirt and pulls me closer between his legs.I wrap my arms around his neck while straddling his waist.I can feel his e
“It’s not that. It’s… Well, are you still planning on rejecting me?”Goddess, I feel sick!I gasp.Lorcan just tore my t-shirt in half!My mouth hangs open.Lorcan lifts me by the waist, pushes his shorts down his legs, and slams his cock into my willing pussy.Both of us cry out.I feel so full!I move my hips, but Lorcan grabs them, stilling me. “Don’t move,”“But,”“No,” He cuts me off with a kiss to my lips.“I amnever
“What are you doing up at this hour?”My father was the last person I expected to see in my kitchen at 3: AM.I should have spoken to my family earlier, but we fell asleep after Gianna and I had sex. We woke and showered only to fall right back to sleep again.I haven’t slept so deeply in a very long time. But with Gianna by my side, I slept like a baby.I figured I could talk to my family tomorrow, but I woke a few moments ago and couldn’t get back to sleep, so I got up for a glass of water.Suddenly, there’s a lot on my mind, and having my father in my house is stressing me out. He’s never stayed at Sliver Paw more than a night before now, and I can count the number on the one hand. Having my father here for over a week will prove difficult.
“It wasn’t your fault, Dad.”That was easier to say than I thought it would be.I breathe deeply through my nose.“I understand as a father; you feel responsible for what happened. I’ve thought many times about how things would have been different if we hadn’t saved Mum. The witch wouldn’t have wanted to punish you and Mum for whatever her reason was, and I would have been born alongside the others.”He looks me in the eye, and I realise that I need to get out what I’ve been holding in all these years.“But I wouldn’t change what we did because a world without my mother doesn’t bear thinking about.”Dad nods, and I take a deep breath.“We can’t think
It’s snowing today, and I love snow!Christmas is just around the corner, and I can’t wait. I love Christmastime, and I hope that Lorcan does too. By then, we’ll be officially mated as Alpha and Luna, and I plan to make the holiday unforgettable for my mate.We’ll be going to Zidiah’s capital to spend Christmas with the King and Queen at their request. The Royal’s hold an annual Snow Ball, and all Dalgaard’s must attend.I would have liked to spend Christmas with my parents as I have every year of my life. But that cannot be, and I have to deal with it.I’ve spent a couple of days helping Kale in the infirmary. He was so excited to learn that Lorcan agreed to me being pack healer. I’ll be working alongside my best friends big brother as his third in command.
I lead my family into the living room. Once they’re seated, I link one of the kitchen staff to bring drinks.It’s incredible that I now have a pack link, strange when I shouldn’t have one until I’m sworn in as Luna. However, Lorcan said that now we marked each other, he opened the link because he knows that I’m not going anywhere.Once Macie, one of the kitchen staff, drops off a pot of tea, I pour everyone a cup. Once I’ve handed them out, I sit back in my seat next to the window.Lorcan and I always sit in this massive love seat when we’re in here. He brought the grey fabric chair for us last week, and I love it!“I can’t believe you guys came. I’m so happy to see you all,”“I’m sure.”
“Are you really going to sit there and lie to my face?” Mum snaps at me.I’m not going to go through this shit again. I’m done speaking about what happened, and I won’t let my mother bait me into saying something I can’t take back.“Mum, I know you care about me, and I love you for it. I also know that what Lorcan did to bring me here upset you, and I’m sorry about that.“When I first got here, I wanted to go home. But then I grew to understand my mate, and I fell in love with him.”“And you believe he loves you back?”I nod my head.“I know that he does, Mum. Lorcan asked me to mark him, and the second I did, I felt his love for me flowing through my veins. He shows me every moment we’r
“You know why you’re all here, don’t you?”“Yes, Daddy.” Eight out of nine of my children answer.“Why are you here?”Sienna is the one to reply. As always, the rest have appointed their older sister spokesperson.“Because Angel went crying to Mummy.”“I beg your pardon?!” I yell loud enough for all eight to whimper. “How dare you, Sienna?”“I’m sorry, Daddy.” She sighs.“Angel did not go crying to anyone. Your mother figured out what was wrong! I must say that I am very disappointed in all of you.”Each child hangs their head in shame.“Angel is three years
“It’s Daddy and me. I wanted to give it Daddy for his wall like the others.”I smile while trying not to cry.Each one of our older children has at some point drawn a picture of themselves with Lorcan. For each drawing, Lorcan framed and hung it on the wall in his office. Angel wanted to do the same, and I have to wonder why she didn’t give it to him.“Why didn’t you give this to Daddy?”“Dean said Daddy don’t want drawing from stupid Omega like me. I just want my picture on the wall.” She sniffs back her emotions. “Why Daddy don’t love me?”Holy fuck, I can’t breathe!“Oh, baby girl, your daddy loves you so much.” My heart shatters.I lift my
Eight Years Later“Hey, baby girl.” I smile while taking a seat next to my three-year-old daughter.Angelica, or Angel as we call her, is the seventh of my nine children. Lorcan and I are expecting our tenth in three weeks.After Sienna was born, we were blessed with twins, Dean and Damon, born ten months after Sienna. Then came Trystan, Aaron, and Allen, all born within three years of each other. Angelica, and lastly, our second set of twins, Corey and Caden, are now eighteen months of age.Baby Alessia will be with us real soon, and she is our last. When I said this to my mate, he laughed, but he finally realised that I was serious. Ten children in eight years are enough for anyone.Lorcan and I have the most children in the family. Lilly and Leande
I cup Lorcan’s cheek, drawing his eyes from a burning Nancy and to me. He blinks, clearly shocked by what he just witnessed me do.The thing is, I don’t even feel slightly guilty for setting that bitch on fire. Sure, she was alive when I did it, but it was no more than she deserved.I meant what I said to the pack; no one will ever get away with hurting my mate again. It drove me crazy the past couple of days, thinking about that cunt and what she almost did to Lorcan. I couldn’t bear it one more second; that’s why I had this whole thing set up. I wanted to make an example of Nancy in front of the pack. I hadn’t a clue at first that Anja had taken it upon herself to draw Victor out.When Anja came to me an hour ago and told me that she’d found Victor, I was shocked. Of course, I asked Anja how in the hell she managed to do what
“Are you sure? Like, one hundred per cent? No mistakes?”Luther chuckles while clasping my shoulder.“I’m positive, Lorcan. Though I’m not happy that Mum did what she did, no one is, to be honest. But Mum would do anything for us, and for you, she brought Victor in. It’s the truth, I promise you.”I nod my head, thoughts rushing through my brain at high speed.My mother took it upon herself to find Victor, incapacitate him, and kill his followers.How the fuck did she manage that in the two days I took off to be with Gianna and Sienna?I sent warriors to search for Victor, told them not to return until they found him. Once they had, they were to bring him to me, dead or alive. Of course, I would rather have him alive, but I knew
I knock on Harper's door with the back of my hand and wait for an answer. Yet none comes, making me wonder if Harper is really in there.This can't go on. Whatever Harper is thinking, she's wrong because none of what happened was her fault. I know Harper well enough to know that she's in some way blaming herself for my abduction.I sigh when I still get no answer, but I won’t give up. If Harper is in there, I’ll find out; that’s why I twist the doorknob. Luckily, the door isn’t locked, so I walk inside and close the door behind me.Harper is sitting in a white rocking chair next to her window. She’s holding her baby son, who is wide awake, looking right at his mummy. Harper hums to Cyro while stroking the back of his head. Cyro is beautiful with soulful brown eyes and fixated on his mother.“You a
I blow out a nervous breath as I stand outside Harper's room. I shouldn't be anxious to see my best friend, but I am. I haven't seen Harper since I returned two days ago.Okay, it's partially my fault; after falling asleep with Lorcan that first night, we decided to spend the following day as a family.Lorcan, Sienna and I spent the day getting to know one another. There were no interruptions on Lorcan's orders, and everyone listened.The three of us spent the whole day together, and I love watching Lorcan with Sienna. The way my mate interacted with our daughter was something to behold.After we got ready for dinner last night, there was a moment that stopped my heart. I walked out of the bathroom after fixing myself in there. I only did so as not to choke Sienna with deodorant and perfume. I
“Where is this, Wendy now?” Lorcan asks once my story comes to an end.I rush to sit up in front of my mate.“Lorcan, please. I know that Wendy helped Victor take me, but she didn’t have a choice; her son’s life was on the line. Just imagine what you would do if someone had Sienna. You and I both know you would have done the same in Wendy’s position.“Wendy never hurt me, Lorcan, and she helped bring out little miracle into the world. Not only that, but she brought Sienna and me home just in time for Sienna to save you. If Wendy hadn’t, we wouldn’t be together like this. Please don’t hurt Wendy. Please, Lorcan.”Lorcan tips his head to the side, regarding me closely. My eyes are darting all over the place!Lorcan lifts his head with a s
After Lorcan and I stopped crying, we returned to our room and got dressed in PJ’s. Now we’re on the bed, side by side with our backs against the headboard.Lorcan checked on Sienna, and I thought he’d be bringing her back to our room. But he returned without our little girl, saying she was fast asleep.I’m not sure I want to be without Sienna so soon; I don’t think I could settle. Lorcan said that he’d collect her as soon as we’ve talked things through. I could do nothing but agree.“I don’t know how it happened,” I entwine my fingers with Lorcan’s and pull his hand to my chest, kissing his knuckles. “I was feeling a bit out of sorts, missing my parents.” I shrug my shoulders.“I went to our garden for some fresh air. I let the guards know to tell y
