JwgstoutThis was a long chapter I hope you enjoy the meaty chapters I throw in? I would not trust Oliver one bit. What do you think Tala should do? She seems a little scared but I think she has a strong backbone when needed. She seems like a protector. Thank you for reading, more coming tomorrow!

Day 8 of The Gladiator Games TALA Initiation week had ended, thank the gods, and even though Jasper had to attend the slave girl's initiations, thankfully he wasn’t made to partake, just observe. I was so relieved because even though my mother was pretty much knocked out for the whole week, I sat by her bed every evening after the games anyway, with Eloise by my side. El and Jasper may not have marked each other, however, if he had had sex with anyone, Eloise still would have felt something. Not the shredding burn that makes you want to rip your heart out like I have heard my mother describe. But something more akin to an ashy taste in your mouth and a really bad stomach ache. Since Eloise hadn’t felt any discomfort over the last week, I knew Jasper had remained faithful and I had a much deeper respect for him for not allowing himself to follow in our father's footsteps. His respect for the bond gave me hope for my two best friends. I looked at Jasper, who was currently sitting o

KELLEN Teal left me, turning and leaving the common area without another word after telling me the person was waiting for me in the armory. I couldn’t figure out for the life of me who would risk visiting me in the barracks at this time of night. As I made my way closer to the weapons rooms I caught the scent of Oranges and Sea salt. Conri was mentally whipping his tail around in my head, the scent of our mate driving his senses and hormones into a frenzy. My heartbeat picked up as I drew nearer to the entrance, realization dawning on me that my mate was here. Then came the worry. This was no place for a woman. I noticed two guards standing outside the room and as I approached they nodded their heads and stepped to the side allowing me entrance. As soon as I entered a figure in a black cloak turned to me, and my eyes met her cerulean blues. My heart beat furiously and my body began to tremble as I tracked the parting of her lips, a barely whispered gasp leaving her perfectly shape
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 22 – Time to Watch
MIKE For the past couple of days, we had been working with Jonda who was able to get us access to the cameras that were active on the docks. We went back to the day Kellen had disappeared but we found nothing of use. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. I have to admit I did enjoy my brief time around Jonda and if the circumstances were different I may have actually tried to hook up with her. The timing was wrong but I would take the little looks we would exchange with each other. The little lustful glances we shared would always leave me wanting more. Maybe after we had found Kellen I could pursue this profound Obsession I was developing for her. If I was completely honest with myself, the more time we searched the more it seemed he had truly disappeared and I feared that one day his body would turn up and we would never know what really happened to him. I knew he was still alive, neither I nor my wolf, Duke, had felt a disconnection from our King, but still, it didn’
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 23 – Jonda
MIKE Neither Hunji nor I slept as we crossed the ocean, Tobias didn’t sleep either but that was due to him throwing up throughout the journey. “Fuck, I am so happy to be on dry land again!” Tobias had grumbled once we had made it to the Sea Dogs Island. He did look a little green and pasty. I chuckled at his complaining, it seemed there was something after all that could bring down the mighty Beta Bear. “I guess you can’t stomach as much as me, tell me again how tough you are big guy?” I mocked him, as he still clutched his stomach and stumbled slightly as he got his bearings. “Fuck you.” was all he replied. Jonda’s brother, Alpha John, was waiting for us once the boat had docked and greeted us as soon as we stepped off the gangway. He had the same deep auburn red hair as Jonda’s, but his eyes were crystal blue with a hint of green. Like most Alphas, he was tall and built, not quite my height and not as bulky as me, but he was a pretty good-sized Alpha. “Alpha John,” I greeted hi
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 24 - Darrius
MIKE The Sea Dogs cells were nothing more than a warehouse with a hidden basement. They were dark, damp, and dank, and held the scent of the ocean. Darrius the wolf shifter, had been tied to a metal chair that was coated in a thin layer of silver. They had stripped him of all his clothing and left him there. The silver was enough to irritate the skin and slowly burn the back of his legs, ass, and balls, but not enough to do any real damage. It was a slow but constant form of torture. He lifted his head with a whimper when we walked into the large cold and barely lit room. His eyes were red and slightly swollen. Alpha Johns men had worked him over a little. It had already been decided that I, as Kellen’s Beta, would question the man, whereas Tobias would be the one inflicting the pain if need be. There would definitely be a need. Jonda took a seat at the side of the room and Hunji stood next to her, ready to intervene if and when needed. He looked more like her personal bodyguard i
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 25 – We meet Again
Day 12 of The Games KELLEN Ajani finally healed and was able to join us for training in the common area this morning, although he was still recovering and a little on the stiff side, he was still one the best fighters here, aside from myself and Teal, Ajani was only second to Rogue. Often I had found myself wondering who Rogue really was. Or where he came from, once he had been taught to hold a sword properly and trained in fighting techniques, He embraced the role of a Gladiator with the heart of a warrior. He was a quick study, and picked things up easily, a natural like he was born to fight. I was sure if he had a voice he would be a great commander, his loyalty to me was sincere. Rogue had shadowed my every move, listening, learning, watching my back, and had I watched him strengthen and gain the respect of each Gladiator in the Barracks, he was becoming a force to reckon with and I appreciated him. I trusted Rogue. After the incident I saved him from, Rogue needed to show hi
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 26 – An unexpected Bite
KELLEN I waited, somewhat patiently for Tala and Jasper, pacing the small room. The guards brought me to some kind of small structure that only housed a bathroom and living room. The guard said they called it their lounge where they could grab a coffee, or a few hours of kip in between making the rounds. The small building was at the far end of the south wall just after the female slave quarters. There were two desks on either side of the room, a couch sat in the middle accompanied by one leather chair and a small table, facing the window. The room was well lit by lamps and the only other door led to the bathroom. The main door opened and as soon as it did, my breath hitched when my eyes met with Talas. Pulling back her hood she then flung herself into my waiting arms and I breathed her in. Instantly feeling a calming warmth wash over me and settle my wolf. Goddess I had missed her presence already. Her little arms wrapped around my waist, holding on like I was her lifeline. I pu
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 27 – A Vile Wolf & A Red Wolf
TALA I couldn’t believe I marked him, I didn’t regret it, but I was definitely mad at my wolf. Mora had seen her opportunity to push through and take over and she took it. Lost in bliss when my orgasm started to rip through me, she took advantage of my vulnerable state, coming to the forefront and marking her mate. I didn’t even know my mate, Kellen, only what Oliver had told me. Yet I had all these feelings for him, feelings that I didn’t understand, or at least understand where they were coming from. ‘The mate bond’ Mora’s voice filled my head for the first time in a long time. After marking Kellen I was feeling her presence more than ever. ‘How can I feel so strongly about someone I don’t know? I don’t even know his age, or if he has siblings, What his favorite food is, or color,” I began ranting to her. ‘All in due time, we can get to know these things. Our mate was made for us. We will love everything about him’ My wolf spoke, her words having a calming effect on me. Telling

I was already a day behind, the truck I had been given by the now Alpha Jasper of Bhakhil, broke down yesterday morning. Caused me to run in wolf form, find a cave in the foothills of the Andora mountain range and rest for the night. At first light I shifted into my wolf, letting Ruda lead the way, once again. Some hours later, well into the late afternoon, we had made our way to the first city, only a couple of hundred miles outside the capital where the Megaron was situated in Bozgvol. I shifted back into my human form behind a house on the outskirts and threw on the loose pair of pant

KELLEN I stare down at the little bundle in my arms, his eyes struggling to open and his mouth straining to yawn. I welcomed the smile that spread across my face as I took in his wrinkled face and hands. His eyes blinked open and already only a few hours old they were brilliant pools of blue, somewhere between the color of mine and Talas. I stole a glance at his mother, who looked at us with adoring eyes that sparkled with love and happiness mirroring my own. “What shall we name him?” Tala asked, adjusting her position to sit up a little better. I sat on the side of the bed cradling our son in my arms. Jonda had come in to meet her nephew and stepped out when Tala had dozed off after giving birth, to give us privacy and to call Mike, who was on his way back here. “I’m not sure” I spoke gently, still enamored with my son and his small movements, eyes trained on him. It's strange how I thought I would never feel love like I did for Lamia, then in one crazy turn of events, I was whis

I was dangerously close to losing my cool. Who am I kidding I had already lost it about two hours ago. “Ahh come on Mike, your my favorite turd, I wouldn’t shit you.” He laughed. “Fuck you, Rhett, this is not cool. Can’t you handle it? The fucking crowning ceremony is ruined, and now a fucking murder? The party hadn’t even started for Goddess's sake!” Yep, I had most definitely lost my cool. ”F
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 55 – What Future Might it Hold.
3 Weeks Later KELLEN “Ready?” I asked Tala “Yeah,” She squeaked excitedly bouncing on her feet, hardly containing her excitement. We had been out on runs together several times over the last three weeks, but for some reason, today she was overly excited. Lamia, King, Tobias, and the babies had left a week and a half ago, permanently moving to Riocht. Unfortunately, that meant Aunt Vivian went with her, and Uncle Marcus was going to follow behind them once he had everything organized here. I was going to miss them. The palace would seem even emptier now. I had spoken to Tawny. I didn’t like her position, but she was tough and she knew what she was doing. She could handle herself, when she needed me I would be there for her, It satisfied me to hear she was planning on heading to Riocht in the next coming days to meet the kids. It warmed my heart knowing Lamia and Tawny had formed an unbreakable friendship, that no matter what they would always have each other, thinking of them had

1 WEEK LATER HUNJI “Congratulations again your highness, I looked forward to returning and meeting the three of them.” I ended the call with Lamia. I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact the young Queen had given birth to triplets and was thankful the little girl had survived. I shoved the satellite phone into my backpack, along with the power bars, two bottles of water, and a change of clothes. My swords were already attached to my back. It wasn’t much for the journey I was about to embark on but then I was hoping to make quick work of finding Finn’s sister and bring her back in as less time as possible. “Do you have everything you need?” Jasper asked me walking into his office. “Yes Alpha, as much as I need to carry.” I zipped up the bag replying to him. I had spent a little over a week here; helping the new Alpha and his Luna adjust. Kellen had left a handful of his warriors here and a Gladiator named Corey had decided to stay in Bhakhil now it was under the rein o
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 53 – Blood Lust
OLIVER How Ironic, that Alpha Travis would have me put in the same cell that I once had him held in for months. It took us four days of traveling to get back to MacTire. At first, I laughed that they would take me back to the place I grew up in. I knew every single inch of that castle, every nook, every cranny, every secret passage, and tunnel. It would be easy to break out of their cells and leave the dungeons, I knew the mechanisms by heart. How wrong I was. I realized it was idiotic for me to think they would not have made upgrades and changes to the castle. I understood that as soon as the guards led me down below and into the dungeons, bringing me to Travis’ old cell. There were new barred doors and the floor had been painted with silver, leaving a small strip for a prisoner to walk on. I was stripped down and hosed down, then given a pair of thin shorts and shoved into my new home. There was no way I was breaking out of this cell. A cot, a chair, and a bucket were all that fu
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 52 – Happy Birthday
KELLEN 11.45 PM my watch read. I lowered my arm exposing the moon high above me; she looked like she was smiling tonight. The birth of triplets had probably pleased the moon goddess. The chosen Queen had done well and at only two days old they were able to determine their races. The Eldest and biggest, Zachary would have the spirit of a bear, taking after his father. Maximus, the second eldest and only slightly smaller than his brother was a wolf and the smallest and prettiest, Amali also smelled as if she would be a wolf but her scent was different from her brothers, perhaps she would be a Dire wolf like her mother, or a Lycan, also from her mother’s side. Of course, she could just be an ordinary werewolf too. But I didn’t think so. She was special, maybe because she held my name and I was biased? I would spoil all Lamia’s children, but mostly her. Both boys had been born with the mark of a royal, their little crown birthmarks sitting on their hips just like mine and Lamia’s. I w
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 51 – The Next Generation
KELLEN We were all currently gathered in the Beta’s suite that was on the opposite end of the hall to the Delta’s suite where Lamia had been in labor for several hours now and our women, along with several pack doctors, had been coming in and out there gathering all the necessities to deliver the triplets. They were concerned about the third baby, it was so tiny, and the doctors worried about the child being underdeveloped and not making it. They wanted to take her to the pack infirmary, yet moving her could endanger the smallest child, or worse rupture something in Lamia. So she would be giving birth here. I, like the other men who gathered in the Beta suite, for some reason thought this would be quick. We were all concerned for Lamia, but it gave us all a chance to talk and catch up, keeping the business conversation light and focusing on the more meaningful conversations, yet subjects will come up and I couldn’t ignore my duty for long. By tomorrow I would be back to being a King
The Gladiator Wolf King - Book 3 Chapter 50 – The Queen of shifters
TALA We arrived at a port on the mainland a day and a half later, both Tobias and Fergus (I refused to call him Rogue) were more than happy to be on dry land again, and much to my amusement, they both bent down and kissed the ground. “It wasn’t that bad.” I laughed at them “You just need to find your sea legs” “Easy for you to say princess, you were born with sea legs. It's in your blood” Tobias pointed at me giving me a non-amused glare. “I was born in a desert Tobias, no matter who my father was. I had never even seen a body of water, especially the ocean since I left Bhakhil. Just because my real father was a Sea Dog, it doesn’t mean anything.” “It means everything. I personally am a mountain bear. I prefer the cold weather and the streams full of fish, not on a vessel in the middle of nowhere floating for the sharks to come eat.” I rolled my eyes at Tobias “Stop being a big baby,” I jested to the overly large bear shifter who was friendly, and most of the time, when he wasn’t
