Life was finally going right, Samantha was going over some budgets for Silvery Blood when it happened... we decided there was too much crap on her desk and not enough of her. I was almost finished getting her shirt off when a loud crash happened on the other side of her office door followed by Violet cursing.
Good thing we locked the door.
I growled slightly as Samantha got up, fixing her shirt and beginning to pick up the papers from the floor. Reluctantly I unlocked the door, fully intent on only opening it a crack and getting back to what I started when she burst through me and walked in.
“We are needed at Silvery Blood. Now.” She stated. “There is a group of wandering wolves there asking for sanctuary, but the guards don’t trust them. They may try to take over.”
“What’s the chances of them attempting a takeover?”
“Unknown,
Meanwhile as William was just now finding his mate, Jackson sat with his Luna while surrounded by his pack mates. He spoke once with the current beta, and the gamma was occupied on the other side of the pack. He heard whispers that someone was on the way here, someone important from the sounds of things. One of their allies maybe? He had done a little research of his own, and he learned of the many packs in this region falling suddenly and mysteriously. That was troubling, as thousands of wolves were left either homeless or dead.He frowned, he was ready to meet the alpha and challenge him but every time he asked to see him, he was hit with a dead end. Of course, there could be a legitimate reason, as the duties of an alpha were time consuming if done right. He remembered his father working all hours of the day and night, but his older brother treated the job as a luxury. Before hefledhewas in charge ofthe major running of the
Noise from behindus pulledmy attention from the ‘fight.’ I try my best to ignore it though,I’mfocused on something more important. She is havingfun,I can feel it.I’msurprised shehasn’tdrawn blood yet though, only laughing in his face as she is dodging him left and right.Like a cat with a mouse, she will punch and retreat as he tries to keep up with her movements. He swiped at herhead,and I frowned when she ducked, some of her hair got cut. <Love! Be careful!> I growled, no one can touch her hair but me!Now the scent of salt reaches my nose and I pause as I glance behind me, slightly annoyed. Holly and Frank are handling it, no need to worry. That is until I hear thedesperationin Oliva’s voice as she pleads for her mate’s life. I sigh, there isn’t much I can do but right now all sh
“SoI lost the challenge, fair and square. Please, those of you who didn’t see. Alpha Samantha showed me a great mercy, she could have killed me and Elsa with no consequences and forced you all to submit. But she is not. She is only promising her protection as our new alpha. We will be safe here, and we have to believe her.” Jackson explained to the crowd. “We are very far away, there is little chance Vito will find us, and even if he does there isn’t much he can do. I felt Alpha Samantha’s power as well as Luna Benjamin. It is leaps and bounds above what he can do.” I watched as many of the wolves looked at us in interest, and many remarked that our roles were switched. Many of the females smiled and nodded, but some of the males didn’t seem sold.But,that is to be expected, as sexist as it is, to think that a female can be strong enough to lead a pack. Samantha started to growlslightlyand I hugged her close. <Let th
Jackson looked up from his computer as his mate walked in. “I just got an email from the Council.” He sighed, his heart heavy as he read the accusations and findings of the Inquisitor. Things were worse since he left, and there were things that happened in the shadows that even he wasn’t aware of.“What did they find?” Elsa asked, feeling the grief radiating from their bond.“Guilty of rape of the young women in the pack, forced pairings among the omegas, slavery, espionage, and during their hunt they discovered he was planning on attacking your birth pack for helping us escape.” He held his head in shame, to even be related to a monster likethat?“The Beta was removed as well, and the Gamma is now being investigated.”“So, what will happen to the pack?” Elsa worried, do they need to return?&
“I’m not crazy right? Thatisyou, withanIron Man toy? Right?!” She asked again, taking thephotoand looking at it.“Yeah... that is me.” I start, but where do I even begin? How do I know she won’t pass out again after I tell her the truth?“Tellme the truth about what? And what do you mean, pass out???” She looked at me in shock. “What are you keeping from me?!”Oh,shit she is reading my mind now! What do I do??? Should I call Violet in case something else happens???“What has Violet got to do with this?!” She stands up now, more hurt than angry and I felt the guilt hit me like a freight train. “Talk to me!!!” She pleads now and I can barely look her in the eye.“Look I...” I stand up
~Samantha Age 10~Finally, I can eat solid food again! Oh, steak how I have missed you! I do a little happy dance in the hospital bed as the meat nearly melts in my mouth. Doc says I can leave this drab room today too! I heard from the other nurses that the dentist who mangled my teeth left the pack, I felt a tiny bit sorry for him and I told my dad that it wasn’t his fault.ButDaddy assured me that he wasn’t forced out he left on his own.Oh well.I pause as one of my dad’s guards walks in, smiling. “Young Alpha. You’re awake finally!”“Yes sir, Mr. Stevenson! Doc said I could leave today!” I held my arms up high over head as he chuckled and sat on the bed.“Yes, I know. You father called me and asked me to keep an eye on you. They are still away on business together.
Beep...Beep... beepWhat is that? Aww hell, my head! Why is it so bright in here?! I can’t see anything.“Luna?” I hear someone whisper. “He’s waking up! Get the doctor!” I feel someone pulling on me now, and I groan in pain. Don’t touch me... what happened? The lights in the room dim slightly and Iam able tocrack my eyes a little further. A worried nurse’s face is looking at me now. What is going on? I glance down at the tubes and wires running to my body and I groan, I don’t want this on me.“Ben. Hey, Ben.” I hear another voice from the door now, Jess? “Please, you need to keep these on for a little while longer.” My throat is burning with pain, and I have trouble swallowing. How did I get here?! I start to move when the sparks start up my arm and look beside me. Samantha is laying in
I wake up again, pulling my mate closer to me again as I blink and look around. Talking in the hallway is what woke me up. I can hear the seriousness in the Doctor’s voice and the worried comments from my parents and Violet. Bloodwork? They found something in thebloodwork?Is it bad? I am just as shocked when he asked for blood samples from my parents. What is going on?Part of me wants to go to the hall and find out for myself but I am reluctant to leave the bed. For some reason even having her out of my arms is unbearable. Straining myears,I hear them walk down the hallway and I sigh and lay back in the bed. Smiling I dive into my memory and pull up one of us playing in her room. There is that white Gundam again, I wonder what she ever did with it? When she wakes up,I’llask her.Whenever that will be. Rightnow,her thoughts arejumbledtogethe
*Five Years Later**Ben’s POV*“That’s enough for today.” I glared as the rogue breathed his last and the others in the cells shrank away from me. “You.” I pointed at the one trying to hide in the back. “See you tomorrow.” I growled and made my way out of the cells.“Good job, Alpha.” One of the guards said. “We got a lot more out of them today than we did yesterday.”I nodded. “Yes, another slave trading rogue cell. Give the notes to Beta Violet, she will email the Council with the names of the packs who have been dealing with them.” I said as I wiped my hands on a nearby towel.“Yes, Alpha.” Hesaid. “The portable shower is ready for you as well. You knowMs.Amy will throw a fit if you get blood in the packho
The next few months bounded by, on June 2ndwe went to my parents’ pack and celebrated Chris and Lauraascendingto the Alpha and Luna titles. Even though itwasn’ta full moon it was the same day our parents ascended yearsago,and Chris wanted to keep it. Ron and Orla also ascended that night, and Orla’s mating ceremony was done under the full moon on the 12th. Jake was finallyinitiatedas Violet’s mate and second Beta in July and life was starting to settle down comfortably.We ended up buying that land in Vermont, and construction was starting in the hopes we could be operational by the start of the season. We got a lot ofpushbackfrom existing slopes but Samantha just powered through, adding moreamenitiesto make our property more cost effective. The real problem she is facing now is staffing. Sheisn’tagainst using localhumans,&nbs
I woke up early, it was still dark outside but the bed beside me was empty. I was startled at first and worried. Did something happen? Why didn’t Samantha wake me up?Pulling myself out of bed I notice my phone is lit up with an unread text message.Love: Hey, something came up! Had to check out something last minute. If you get this before I get back come find me! Love you! <3Ifurrowedmy brow and quickly got up and changed, what could have happened this early in the morning? Tiptoeing out of the packhouse I glanced up, the sun would soonrise,and the early spring animals were starting to wake up. A few pack members were moving around, some heading to the gym while others were yawning and walking towards the main gate to start their shift.Passing a few of the omegas whowere in charge ofbreakfast I nodded and smile
The rest of the week was somber, mass funerals were held at mydad’spack; entire families were buried together. The guilt that radiated from my mate wasstifling, and I have no idea how to get her through it.I’vetried everything I could think of, even watching the NCAA tournamentdidn’thelp. And when UNC lost in the Final Four it backfired on me.The new TV was already here and getting hooked up.As we entered our packhouse we heard the new sound system in the entertainmentroom,and Icouldn’thelp but smile as most of the omegas that stayed in the packhouse were in there. One of them looked up and waved at us. “Alpha! Luna! Quick! The King has announced a press release! The Head of the Council is there too!”My browfurrowedand my mate sighed. “What now?” She murmured
*Yep, Reader Discretion is still advised*“Different?” My browscreased. “Mine is different too?”“Too?”I sighed. “Yes, I meant to tell you last night,but you were passed out by the time I got out of the shower. You were sleeping so peacefully Ididn’twant to wake you. Butyourslooks a lot different.” I sighed and ran my finger over my markon her neck.“It looks like acrescentmoon.”“What, really?” She grabbed her phone and turned on the self-facing camera. “What? I don’t see it... it looks the same to me.” She bit her lip. “Here, look. Tell me yours looks different.”I lookedperplexedat the screen. It
*ReaderDiscretionis still very muchadvised*“So do we have any questions so far?” Samantha asked as she is wiping the blood from her two daggers. After Boni passed out she stopped slashing Kimmie and left her to cry.“Yes Alpha!” One of the youngalphasasked as she raised her hand. “Is this the best way to gather information? Aren’t you worried that any information you get from them is a lie?”“The simple answer is ‘no.’” Samantha said with a smile. “This is not the best way to gather information.”Most of the alpha’s kids gasped and someactually startedtaking notes. Even some of the alphas were surprised and listening intently. “However, this is the easiest way to gather information. But like you said any info
*ReaderDiscretionisadvised**Samantha Pov*I tried not to laugh as we walked the line of rogues towards the two stakes. Even more of the rogues were crying. The idiot she wolf kept looking around, andmore and moreof the pack members here call out in disbelief and hatred. “Take most of them to the dungeons, these twostaywith me.” I order as my adopted father andbrother in lawwalk over. “Get the hose out, they stink of piss.” Ismirkagain as my guards grab them in the usual way.Let’ssee, about 10 rogues, all male...mid-twentiesto late thirties...yeah.I’mgoing to be busy fora while. Hmm...maybe AlphaEric and Chris would like some time with them...A giant mud ball is thrown behind me and I tried andfailed to&
*Samantha POV*I’mgoing to fucking kill him. Behind me on my left is Ben, he is nervous and worried; I can tell. He is nervous and I am pissed. We are running through the woods, as soon as we got that mind link, we ran to the bunker. The bars I helped install last week were sawed clean through, the attack on Black Hill was just a distraction!And I am going to kill him. I am going to skin that bastard alive and make a trampoline from his hide! I am going to rip off his leg and kick his ass with it. I am going to hang him up by his other leg and let the pups use him as batting practice.I’mgoing to rip every one of his teeth out of his jaw andI’mgonna....I’mgonna.....<Grind them up and make him drink them with a straw.> Ben linked me.<Yes. Exactly.> I agreed before I growled.
“See. I told you so.” Helios smiled as he hugged his mate close. They looked up as more souls tried to join their haven on the moon.“Yes. You did.” She smiled as she only waved her hand and most of the incoming souls... the ones who committed unforgivable horrors in their life was repelled back.As Helios raised his hand towardsthem,they flew away, towards the giant chariot that his brother was driving. Apollo laughed as he lassoed them and snapped his whip. Soon they joined the multitude of otherdamned souls, they would be forced to run and pull for eternity. Never resting, never slowing down, and never again knowing happiness. A fitting punishment.“Things down there should change soon.” Helios smiled again as his brother waved at him.“Yes, some of my children have gone so far astray that t
