The Criminal's Alpha Chapter 22
We met up with Miguel and Ashley, who had taken the truck, about two miles from the bank and started deciding how we would get everything done. Ashley had brought our bags to carry the cash out of, custom-tailored to not blow up in case it was shot at, and enough ammo for the big gun for us to get in, get out, and still have ammo to let Jack fire back at anyone tailing us. Derek was with Jade and Johnny with Nicki who was working with a friend of Miguel to get the EMP set up. Supposedly it had a small enough range for it to only affect the electronics inside the building, Jade and Derek had the same job that Miguel and Ashley had: Keep the cops and any reinforcements they bring in busy while Jack and myself got the cash, today was 'transfer day' which meant they were getting all the cash from this year ready to a more secure safe somewhere in the middle of nowhere, so it was today or never. We pulled up to El Oro and Jack followed me into the bank, while Ashley got in the gunner's sea

I sped down the I-35 westbound towards Costco with my earbuds in and Green Day playing, this was the life: wind in my hair, music imploding my eardrums, nothing was more relaxing. Jack said he was gonna give Alex a bit of his cut since we didn't account for her in the initial divvying up of the cash, and I had given a portion of the mine to Miguel's friend since I didn't need as much, we had a god damned safe in our safe house with enough cash to buy California so being short a couple hundred thousand wasn't gonna break my heart. Pulling into the parking lot, I started the task of the century: finding a parking lot at 10:30 at night, luckily there was a lot to choose from. After parking my bike and opening a wormhole to let Jameson out to watch over it, and stretch his legs, I headed towards the store."Umm excuse me, sir?" Came from the bitch who took her job way too seriously."Hmm?" 'Seriously, you're not working for the secret service, you're a check-in clerk at a fuckin' Costco,

We sped home and luckily made it home with twenty minutes to spare, and rushed inside to see Derek pacing back and forth, he didn't look too happy about us being home that late. I was about to explain when he slugged me across the jaw."I deserve that, but try again and I'll slit your throat.""I've been stressed out over this, so quit your bitching about a small punch and go get Johnny, lead him to the garage and we'll see how this goes," He said and walked towards the garage with a heavy pace, normally I would go off at him but I didn't care enough to, so I walked over to Johnny's room and grabbed him by the arm."Hey! Where are we going?""Your presence has been requested at the garage," I said and continued tugging him along, "If you don't come, that's your choice, but I'll just throw you over my shoulder and carry you there anyway, so don't bitch right now.""Jeez, did Derek slug you again?" He asked as I opened up the garage for him and followed him in."Yes, and there he is," I

"So, you've never gone out with anyone before?""Nope, I've pretty much dedicated my time to either the gang or having fun by myself, with guns, diet coke, or video games," I said, watching the lake, it was oddly peaceful for something that wasn't real."What video games do you play?""Apex legends, I used to play overwatch before they added satan herself, Skyrim, and Fallout 4.""'You can't stop the Octrain!'""'My name is Bloth Hoondr, you can call me bloodhound'," I said, imitating the accent that he used with my hand over my mouth."I love that game so much, I play Octane if you couldn't tell.""I could tell, no one quotes Octane without playing Octane," I said, laughing when I remembered a game that happened when I dropped and immediately got my favorite weapon fully kitted. I explained to her how the game went, how I had gotten into a firefight with 3 other squads simultaneously."That sounds like hell.""I'm glad I was recording, I'll have to show you it sometime later.""Sound

When we got home, 'Inside the Fire' by Disturbed was playing, and as with every other song ever, we were singing it as we made our way up to our room."GIVE YOUR SOUL TO ME, FOR ETERNITY, RELEASE YOUR LIFE TO BEGIN ANOTHER TIME WITH-" we scream sang until Nicki yelled something "ALEX!""SHUT IT!!" I yelled back and pulled my hoodie up before opening my door and closing it behind Jack. He was laughing when I shoved him towards the bed and grabbed a couple of Xbox controllers, and my drink."That was funny, you have to admit that," He said, chuckling, as I flipped him and continued mumble singing the lyrics to the song."Give your soul to me, for eternity, release your life to begin another time with her! End your grief with me, there's another way, release your life and take your place inside the fire with her!" I sang as the song ended, with a slow sarcastic clap for Jack."Technically, wouldn't it be 'him' in your case since your Hell-spawn?""Yeah, I guess, but it's just a song. Fuc

One.I fell backward out of our window before she even reached the window, falling to the ground, luckily I wasn't alone in this. I plugged my earbuds in and started 'The Vengeful One' by Disturbed as I neared the ground, opening a portal to hell at the last second. I met Jack within, and he was in our truck, playing the same song I had in my earbuds."I'M THE HAND OF GOD, I'M THE DARK MESSIAH," He said, pointing to me as the next lyrics came up, I knew them and flew into the car as I finished the line."I'M THE VENGEFUL ONE!" I screamed, and we continued singing as we made our way through hell towards the second portal I had made, that would drop us off in San Antonio. We stepped out and pulled our Bandanas on, not feeling like being recognized by the cops, and headed towards the bar we used to go to when we lived here, "La barra del inframundo". Green Day was playing as we entered, and sat at the bar, ordering Lucifer's brew for both of us."What's goin' on y'all?" The bartender, an

"I solemnly swear I'll be good...that just doesn't roll off the tongue as well as the original though, I wanna be up to no good.""Go back home and get some clean clothes on, I'm taking you to dinner.""Wait, w-what?""You heard me," She said and got really close to my face, and in almost a mumble, "See ya in an hour.""A-alright then," I said as she shifted and ran off in the opposite direction..."What the actual fuck just happened?!""You got asked out on a date, Jacob," Jack said from behind me, I was still on edge and nearly jumped out of my skin."You're a piece of shit and you know it!" I said, trying to catch my breath, it wasn't often that I was caught off guard, but when it did it was mostly Jack and that made me want to punch him."Come on, let's get you ready. You're not chickening out here.""Go fuck yourself," I said, opening a portal to my room and deciding on what to wear, it was either a clean hoodie and jeans, or my leather jacket, beanie, and jeans."Go with the bean

As we entered the bar, we were greeted with the same thing that I was greeted with the first time I went to this place, a bar fight. Whoever was losing was getting his ass handed to him and was thrown into me, which was the end of the fight. I grabbed the guy who was thrown into me and threw him outside into oncoming traffic, then grabbed the other guy and threw him across the bar. By the time I was done, Alex had already gotten a table and I followed her to it, in which she sat and smirked at me, I wasn't gonna hear the end of this."You really can't go one day without throwing someone into oncoming traffic, can you?""Oh shush, I don't take people being assholes to me, and neither should I or anyone in my family.""Does that include me?""Shut up," I said, trying to ignore the blush creeping on my face, as the waitress swung by and asked us for our drinks, and then left while Alex gave her a death stare, "Do you death stare at everyone near me?""No. Just the ones who think they can

Jacke's POVAs I continued showing Pete around the basement, answering his questions as they came, I realized that I had come a long way since the times when I first placed these items here. If you had asked me a century ago if I would be willing to show this room to anyone outside my family, I would've choked you with your own hands for asking a stupid question. Yet, here I was, showing Pete these artifacts from my past as if I had known the man my whole life. We continued going through the room with many questions asked and answered, and finally arrived at the most recent artifacts I had stored down here."This is the sword that belonged to a nobleman I had killed a decade or so ago, he had a significant bounty on his head, and I was bored that day. I grabbed two of my family members, got in one of my trucks, and flew out to Europe; He had been abusing his money and political influence to further his ends, without any care in the world for how it had affected his 'subjects'," I said
The Criminal's Alpha Chapter 79
Jacke's POVI woke up the next day with Alex holding on to me with an iron grip, it looks like I wasn't getting out the easy way this morning. I grabbed her hand and kissed it trying to loosen her grip on me so I could stand up and start my day, but she wouldn't budge. With a little struggle, I turned around to look her in the face as she started waking up."Pup, it's early, go back to sleep," She groaned when she saw me looking up at her with a stupid-looking grin, I knew it was early in the morning but I had way too much energy to just sit still."I don't want to go back to sleep though, I have too much energy to sit still, Alex," I said as I wiggled around trying to get free, to no avail. She wouldn't let me go as easy as she did yesterday, even if it were so she could sleep in."You're not getting up anytime soon, you're going to sit here and accept my love, Nerd. Besides, it'll be more peaceful for food if we let the morning crew get their grub first," She said as I cuddle back i
The Criminal's Alpha Chapter 78
Alex's POVWe made our way back home hand-in-hand, cracking jokes and talking about what would change in Jacke's life now that he was my Luna. It wasn't anything groundbreaking, but he needed to know that he would need to be more careful about his lifestyle; Acting more in the shadows and not trying to cause a scene everywhere he went. He took it shockingly well, going so far as to explain that it wouldn't be difficult to make those kinds of changes with the decades upon decades worth of resources he'd built up."It won't be a drastic change, from the sounds of it, it would just mean that I'd have to do less of the leg work and live a more peaceful life by your side," He said squeezing my hand, and I would've been lying if I said that my heart didn't skip a beat."What did I ever do to deserve you, Pup?""Do I need to make a list? I think the most potent reason would probably be that you exist," He said chuckling as we made our way up the trail back home. It took a lot of willpower to
The Criminal's Alpha Chapter 77
Jacke's POVAlex took hold of my hand as we left home to go out on a walk, and followed the trail leading to where we hoped to find Mallow still there. We walked hand in hand with my music playing on my phone, I was more or less pestering Alex into telling me what her 'surprise' was but she wouldn't budge. She insisted that she wasn't going to spoil the surprise no matter how many times I asked, and I took that as a personal challenge. So, I did what I do best, and tried to tease her with a small whimper, but that didn't do anything but make her smirk."You keep making those kinds of noises, and we'll see who's really in charge here, love," She said looking at me, smirking with a look on her face that screamed 'Test me'."You're lucky I love you, Alex," I said trying to ignore the blush that was creeping on my face. I don't know how she did this, taking the stone-cold attitude I usually had, only to cast that aside to reveal my shy side without any issues."You're right, I am quite lu
The Criminal's Alpha Chapter 76
Alex's POVI woke up later than I usually do to notice two things seemed off: One, Jacke wasn't in my bed, and Two, It was peaceful and quiet. With everything that was going on something smelled fishy, so I got up, got dressed, and left our room to head downstairs. Pete was in the kitchen drinking a cup of coffee, so I grabbed one myself before taking a seat next to him."Morning, Alex, what's going on with you?""Have you seen Jacke? He wasn't in bed when I woke up," I asked before taking a sip of my coffee and trying to not let my nerves get the best of me."Jacke? Yeah, we had a conversation earlier about the speech before he left to go find Mason, I presume to have the same kind of conversation.""Fucking hell, have mercy on me I just woke up. Did the conversation at least go well with the two of you?""Oh yeah, I think it went phenomenally. He got straight to the point and was very kind, all-be-it concerned about having to give a speech to the pack as a whole. He told me about ho
The Criminal's Alpha Chapter 75
Jacke's POVThe following morning I woke up early, at the crack of dawn, and got out of bed as carefully as I could to not wake Alex up and let her sleep in. I left the room and walked out and downstairs into the kitchen to see it was empty, leaving me all the room to make some food. We split and Jake took a seat while I grabbed a carton of eggs from the fridge, an onion, and a roll of ground sausage. Browning the sausage in one pan while I diced the onion to make some breakfast burritos, Jake sat staring into space deep in thought."What's on your mind, Bud?""Just thinking about how we're going to go about talking to Pete, and Alex's Beta. Pete seems like a nice dude, but I don't know how I'd be able to play nice with Alex's old bully," He said before I handed him a drink, "Thank you. I mean, is it just me? I feel like it's almost a test for us not to just deck the guy after what he put her through.""Under normal circumstances, I would agree with you one hundred percent, however, t

Jacke's POVWe descended the ladder into the cellar below with an empty jar, and once we got to the bottom Alex stood at the ladder to make sure no one else came in, while I made my way to the altar in the center. The ashes were still there in the pile that Lady Muerte had left them, and nothing had looked like it changed, but it was time for a change. I grabbed my knife from my coat and carefully moved the ashes from the alter into the jar, until there wasn't any left and twisted the lid on tight. I was going to take a trip later this week to the Gulf of Mexico and disperse the ashes into the water, symbolizing an end to our chapter of pain and suffering. That section of our life was over, and a new chapter was beginning to unfold before us, one with Alex by our side and a new family that was bigger and stronger than it had been before.I looked around the room and took in every last detail, from the chests full of coins we'd dug up over the years, to the racks of weaponry that we ne

Jacke's POVTo say I was anxious as we walked through the doors to see some of Alex's family members there would be a massive understatement, I didn't think I would've been asked to talk with them this soon, but I suppose it was better now than later. One of them walked forward to shake my hand and pulled me into one hell of a bear hug."It's about time we met you, Lad," He said before letting go, giving me room to breathe after he squeezed the wind out of me, "Alex has spoken quite highly of you, and rightfully so it would seem, as we're building our new home here. Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Pete, Alex's uncle and the one who more or less took her in after her parents passed.""Pete, I'm surprised you guys were waiting for us here, I thought we weren't to go through with the ceremony until later this week. You know, once we're done rebuilding and all?" Alex asked through a glare that would make most men shit themselves, but apparently, Uncle Pete had seen this glare before and

Alex's POVWe walked out the front door and out to watch as our families were hard at work, building back from the remains of La Bruja's damages, and building our new home bigger and sturdier. Nicki and Jade were working with my Beta to build a library due east of the center of town, Jacke made a note that 'Preserving the knowledge and history of the past, helps us to build a better and brighter future' before we continued onward towards the front of the town. They built a large gate for people to come in and out of, with a walkway and a driveway for trucks and cars, and as we passed by many of my packmates waved hello."Hey guys, good to see you back in action!" I said as we passed by, Jacke waved as we made our way to the garage. We got in his truck with me at the wheel, and head off towards his warehouse, where he had said the remaining members of his family from the Necropolis were waiting. We drove through town and parked outside the warehouse before heading inside to see everyon
