The Commander's Match 12. A Step Behind
DaleEarly morning they showered and dressed in a spare set of clothes. Then he allowed his wolf to come forward just enough so he could scent his mate with ease. The trail was fresh, but when they came to the door of the room, he knew without a shadow of a doubt that they were no longer in there.They had somehow left the room before he and Grant had left theirs. So they went downstairs and asked the preppy young woman if she knew anything about their room number. She was very forthcoming with information when Grant smiled at her and told her the sob story that he was trying to find his sister.She actually believed him and informed him that they had paid and left that morning, so waiting at the place would have been wasted effort. She did have some more information, telling them that the three had seemed friendly and unharmed, probably in an attempt to soothe Grant’s worry for his ‘sister’.Then they ended
The Commander's Match 13. Conversations
GemmaShe looked up at Charlie and realized the time had come to play open cards with them, especially if they had no intention of going their separate ways. So she took a deep breath and started with the sad story of her life, sometimes through tears and sometimes with anger for what the wolves had done to her. By the time she was done, Wade stared at her like she’d grown a second head and then gave a slow grin and Charlie chuckled.“Let me get this straight. You managed to create a coup on the pack without a single act of violence? This is priceless!” Charlie cooed with delight.Wade scratched behind his ear for a moment; it seemed to be his way of showing that he had something important on his mind. “A...Gem, you won and lost, there.” He finally grunted out.“What do you mean?” She asked with a frown of confusion.“The owner of the pack lands is the a
The Commander's Match 14. Learning a new way
DaleRealizing that they would spend the entire morning negotiating with his small human that insisted on challenging everything he said, he decided to save them all the frustration. He was too tired, hungry and annoyed to attempt negotiations. Not to mention that they didn’t want to draw more attention than they already had, herding his human around the corner and into the alley beside the station.Pulling out his tranquilizer pistol, he loaded and shot her in the arm. They could have these discussions at the pack, where they had time and he had probably rested some to deal with her fighting everything. And perhaps they could have a little more privacy to discuss these matters where everyone was not involved.She glanced down at the dart and then glared at him, but he could already see the sedative set to work on her, despite her pulling the dart out. “Was that necessary…?” She slurred out a moment be
The Commander's Match 15. Springing the prisoners
GemmaWhen she woke up again, she felt much better, aside from the fact that she had a headache and had to pee really urgently. Nonetheless, she sat up gingerly, unwilling to have the same happen as the last time she woke up.“Whoa, where do you think you’re going?” Grant spoke up from the chair next to the bed. He sounded sleepy and when she glanced at him she realized that he’d fallen asleep in the chair next to her bed.“I need to pee!” She squeaked urgently as she threw her legs over the side of the bed, only to find Grant standing ready to catch her. “I’m fine…” She retorted indignantly.“You forget I picked you up the last time you woke up. You scared the crap out of me.” He answered in a voice so sincere, she stopped and stared for a moment, but then remembered that she had to pee like yesterday.He caught her arm and guid
The Commander's Match 16. Conundrum
DaleHe’d spent the night at her bedside, sleeping with his head near her hand so he could breathe in her scent. He’d slept surprisingly well despite the creak in his neck the next morning, but she was still not awake and he had to get to work.Elder Stuart had him work with setting the pack to rights, since he was mated to the new Luna of the pack, so the transition of him taking over would be smooth. Well, it would be smooth around the pack; his mate was another matter altogether.Grant had told him that he would keep watch over her; personally he just thought the loafer wanted an hour or so of extra sleep. But he agreed, knowing that Grant would keep her safe. He went first to the apartment where his mate had slept before; he could only sleep when he immersed himself in her scent. So he’d moved his bag there and quickly took a shower and brushed his teeth.He had breakfast and checked that training was go
The Commander's Match 17. Mission Launch.
GemmaShe had just finished talking to her lawyer about confirming her survival and getting in touch with the commander to arrange a meeting to discuss the pack transfer, when Wade stepped out of the bathroom. He had clearly showered, but he still had the same clothes on, since they had not managed to get him another set of clothes. She had no idea what had become of their extra clothes and her handbag.She glanced him over where she sat in her office chair, narrowing her eyes with interest. Wade tilted his head at her with curiosity, his wild eyes seeming amused at her expression. “We need to fix this…” She muttered as she came to her feet, Charlie raising his eyebrow at her with his own attention, now that he had returned suspiciously fast from a hunt.“Whatever do you mean?” Charlie asked with curiosity.“He just took a shower and he had to dress in the same dirty clothes. A
The Commander's Match 18. Confusion
DaleHis Gamma came in to report on the border patrol early morning, like he did every day after breakfast, but when Dale looked up at the man he trusted with border security he stopped short and stared for a moment. The man had had long luscious hair that most of the female warriors envied since he’d joined their ranks.But today…today he looked different. “What happened to your hair?” Dale asked in surprise. The man’s hair had been cut into a Mohawk and that Mohawk had been braided down to his back.“Our Luna helped with cutting hair yesterday, Sir. I think some of the men requested some assistance today as well.” Hank Reynolds answered with a barely contained grin.“So you let her cut your hair like that?” Dale asked dubiously. He couldn’t imagine Hank, who had always been possessive about his hair for as long as they’d known him allowing
The Commander's Match 19. Meeting and Enlightenment
GemmaBy the afternoon the two wolves that had come to ask if she would teach them how to cut hair were doing so well that she was sitting back with Charlie and Wade, watching them work. She was rather proud of them; they caught on so quickly, she was sure they would soon find themselves enough work that they could open their own little shop together.Once she was free of these wolves, she was considering doing the same, far away from any other wolves that might consider kidnapping her for their own gain once more.While she was watching the wolves cut hair, she noticed a luxury car roll calmly into the yard and stopping in front of the big house, which she had recently learned was the pack house.A well-dressed man stepped out of the driver’s side and buttoned the two buttons of his jacket as he glanced round with interest. Grant stepped out to meet him and they shook hands, but even from here, she could see their smiles were not sincer

The Commander's Match Epilogue
GemmaIt had been four years since they had become the royal couple. They had changed the werewolf world. At first, it was utter chaos. There had been an uprising of werewolves intent on bringing back the Elders, but they were mostly the wolves that had benefitted from the three elders’ wrongdoing.The uprising was quickly squelched when Dale called the army to clear the problem. The army had unanimously pledged their allegiance to the crown and for a while Gemma and Dale were working to find housing for the complete army. They were forced to expand their land to the west, where there was no pack.Barracks and a bigger pack house were built. Well, it became more of a stronghold. The old pack house was turned into the hospital, orphanage and halfway house for the rogues that had come for protection.Arcus had never left, playing a big role in their lives as mentor and guide, along with Elder Stuart and Elder
The Commander's Match 72. Ceremony
DaleThe full moon was about to rise above the tall trees, which signified the perfect time to hold the ceremony for their mating as the royal couple. He was still in disbelief that he had such an amazing mate and that she had forgiven him. She would be his tonight and he would spend every day of his life making up for how he had treated her when they had met.Once the wolves and the council were seated on both sides of the aisle and many more spectators had found seating on the ground around them for this momentous occasion that would make history, Tamara announced that she would find Arcus and inform his Gemma that they were waiting for her.He was nervous, not because he wasn’t sure about mating her, but he feared that she would see him for the undeserving bastard he was and change her mind about marking him. Grant was sitting in the front row, grinning like a loon with his amusement. Elder Gordon would be holding the ceremony to
The Commander's Match 71. Family
GemmaHer day had been spent getting ready for the mating ceremony that night. It was apparently done under the full moon. She stood in the room, everyone had left and she was feeling emotional. Her father would have loved to walk her down the aisle. Instead she had to do this alone.Emily had left her momentarily to help with some arrangements. Apparently, wolves didn’t have the same type of ceremony that humans did. There was no maid of honor, best man or flower girls. It was just her, walking towards Dale that would wait for her at the front with the Elder.They would say their vows; mark each other in front of everyone there and then she would be crowned directly after. She would then lead them all in wolf form in her first run as the new queen. Could she really be queen?If someone had told her accepting the invitation for the interview would take her on the crazy path to finding a mate and
The Commander's Match 70. Party
GemmaThere would be no formal dinner that night, since everyone would be enjoying the carnival. But Gemma went with Dale to their room – was it odd that she already thought of the room as theirs? He went to shower the dust and dirt off first; he was dusty after his headlong run, covered in the mud.Gemma took a shower in the adjoining bathroom, and pulled on some jeans and a cute top. A moment later someone knocked on her door and she opened it. Emily caught her hand and she was suddenly surrounded by laughing and cheering she-wolves.“What’s going on?” She asked with confusion.“It’s your bachelorette party! We’re going to be pampered and then meet the guys to dance outside under the moonlight.” The she-wolves cheered again while she was dragged down the stairs and into the parlor that had been converted into a large spa.There were nail technici
The Commander's Match 69. A Good Show
DaleHe’d been itching to try this obstacle course since he saw it. Of course, Elder Stuart had insisted that he only see it today, for the first time. But now that he’d seen it; he was excited to try it and he thought it would be a great training method for the warriors once a week. They could always add more onto the course later on and he was sure that would be the case for the next tournament.They were watching the warriors run the track first and he was proud to see that most of his warriors were leading the group. He could see from the sweat coating them, that this course was a good challenge for them. It tested all the muscles in their bodies and he was impressed with his little mate’s course.But then he scented her arousal. Was she interested in one of the warriors? He glanced down at her, but she seemed to be staring off in space with a sexy little smirk on her face and he couldn’t resi
The Commander's Match 68. Tournament Day 6
GemmaIt was the sixth day of the tournament and she could say in all honesty that she might be in a little deeper than she had thought with Dale. The previous afternoon, he had made out with her and had brought her to another intense climax without removing their clothes. She had never expected that dry humping would be so intense.After that he had insisted she sleep a little and she woke up in his arms again. She had never expected to like the Viking like looks, but he was becoming more handsome to her now that she allowed herself to look at him.This morning he had awakened her the same way and she was still in a bit of a daze when he carried her down for their habitual morning run. For the first time she was looking forward to the mating ceremony just a little bit.Daisy snorted at her thoughts and she had to admit that she was looking forward to the mating ceremony more than just a little bit. “Can you n
The Commander's Match 67. Back to Business
DaleAfter their meeting with the supernatural council members they excused themselves to go to the office to get some of their work done. Tamara and Arcus assured them that they would handle the arrangements for the crowning after their mating ceremony so they didn’t have to worry about that.They hadn’t been in the office long when Jessica showed up with the new candidate she insisted would be able to replace her as assistant when she and Malcolm would take over his childhood pack. Turns out it was Emily, who had agreed to do online classes at night while she assisted Gemma during the day.Dale made a mental note to find some way to make Gemma slow down so Emily could finish her senior year in school and maybe some online college classes, as well. It would do them both good not to be overloaded with work all the time.Jessica had then linked him that she was close to finished with the bigger, better office that would give t
The Commander's Match 66. History Lesson Part 2
Gemma“I can imagine.” Tamara chuckled with amusement. “When we found out that you are a Finder, we knew something was different about you. The extra talents were always given to the royal Lycan family. So we started researching your family line.”“It took quite some work, since your father was an orphan.” Bain continued. “Luckily I have some connections, so we managed to run your bloodline all the way back to the baby that Tamara had handed over to the human family. You are indeed a direct descendant of Arcus’ brother, Bartoleus. You are the princess of the Lycans and werewolves.”“But I’m human – was human!” Gemma protested with confusion.“Your wolf is not a normal wolf, have you noticed how strong you are?” Bain smiled at her; he also had a creepy kind of smile.“She has a stronger alpha aur
The Commander's Match 65. History Lesson Part 1
GemmaSomething about the atmosphere around her started to change. She heard whispers going rampant while they watched the teenagers battling. These battles were more competitive and some of these teenagers were pretty impressive with their hand to hand combat, but something was drawing everyone else’s attention.She glanced around her with confusion, but she could see nothing that would draw their attention. Dale came to sit down next to her, pulling her closer to his side and she had an idea he knew what was going on.
