Chapter 26Watching Chase take his anger out on the punching bag, I sigh and wonder if the teen will be able to handle this up coming year. His birthday was yesterday and we celebrated it as a family in the backyard of Asteria and Gale’s house. Quincy and Quest had been invited at Chase’s insistence as well as Odette and Ash.“So what pissed you off today?” I asked as Chase takes a break. His chest heaves as he catches his breath, sweat dripping down his face.“Grey took my phone without asking then kicked me when I tried to get it back. Mom stepped in but she told me to find you and come workout in your basement.” He answers, catching the water bottle I throw his way.“Good call. I am guessing you were ready to throttle your brother?”“Yeah. I hate how angry I got. It felt like some monster was taking over.” Chase sighs out, guilt written all over his face.“Technically is a monster.” Standing from the bench I perch on, I walk towards Chase and ruffle his hair. I then explain that ou

Chapter 27A knock on my bedroom door alerts me that someone is here and I smile. It’s either Caspian or Jett coming to report to me.“You in here Rune?” Jett calls out as my door opens before promptly being shut once more.“By the window. Keep the lights off so that we don’t attract attention.” I answer over my shoulder before returning my attention back to the window. I listen as Jett shuffles around my room and let out a laugh as he curses when he stubs his toe on something – most likely my bed. Then he is beside me, his hand reaching out to push the curtain out of the way as we watch the Eastern border.“How many are leaving today?” I ask, feeling some of the weight of responsibility falling of my shoulders. Today is the first day of our plan being enacted after three weeks of waiting and biding our time. Those that are too scared to stay here in Pine Moon will be leaving and meeting with the Crescent Phoenix warriors. Three days after Jett reached out for help, the Alpha returned

Chapter 28“Beta Brynlee!” Turning at the sound of someone calling my name I spy A she-wolf named Jennifer waving to me as she corrals two pups towards me. It has been two weeks since the first batch of Pine Moon wolves joined our pack and Jennifer was one of them. She came to our pack as an Omega, same as her mate, but after a few days of training it became clear she was fit to become a warrior.“Morning Jen. Hi Izzy and Michael.” I bend down and ruffle Michael’s hair, the seven year old swatting my hand away before he and his twin sister run over to join the other pups in today’s training session.“You know, It’s good to finally call you that. Call you Beta I mean.” Jennifer musses as she watches her pups run around with the others in this class.“It feels nice being called it.” I smile back, giving my friend a hug. Jennifer had been the first to step off the charter bus we bought to bring the Pine Moon wolves here to Crescent Phoenix. I remember how frail and afraid she looked with

Chapter 29Walking into the pack house, I make a beeline for the dinning room when Quincy steps into the hall and blocks my path, a grim look on his face. I stop where I stand, the smell of food wafting from behind him tempting me to tell him that what ever it is, it can wait. I am hungry.“Asteria wants us upstairs in her office.” He states before I can walk around him on my quest for food. I groan and turn on my heels. If Asteria wants us in her office, then our Alpha has gained some bad news. News that requires her Beta and Head Warrior to handle. Making my way towards the staircase, I stop as pups come running inside with their parents, these ones coming from the ten to fifteen training group.“Slow down before you walk into Beta Brynlee!” Quest calls out, the lanky man running a hand through his hair in frustration as he leans against the open pack house doors.“Asteria linked me. Its bad, isn’t it?” The Head Hunter asks as he comes to Join Quincy and I. I shrug and motion for th

Chapter 30Running through the forest in wolf form, I catch the scent of a deer and pause. The Warriors have had a hard time finding game meat lately and the Omegas in charge of cooking for the pack have had to spend more money in town on meat. I decide to put off returning to the pack house for Tanya’s welcome back party to focus on hunting and bringing in this deer.My mind wanders to the reason why Warriors are having a hard time hunting. It is because the wolves that usually hunt are now gone or planning to leave soon. The second batch of wolves who left for Crescent Phoenix should be arriving there soon either late tonight or early tomorrow morning. Caspian promised that he would let me know when Beta Lilac has received them safely so I am not too worried about them being harmed. Heck, the first batch arrived safely two weeks ago and some even emailed me to thank me for helping them leave Pine Moon.I smirk inwardly thinking about them as I pad through the forest floor careful n

Chapter 31[We still can’t find your father or Tanya.] Caspian links me as I finish dressing. I groan, wondering what the fuck my father is doing. He is the one always sprouting off about making Tanya happy. That I shouldn’t be late for a function when it involves her. Yet here he is missing in action and no one knows where he went.[I will check his office.] I state, exiting my room and making my way down to the second floor. I turn in the direction where my father’s office is situated when someone steps in front of me. I growl, ready for a fight until I notice it is Jett. His eyes look everywhere but at me as he blocks my path and the unease I felt moments early grows.“Jett, I am looking for my father. Move.” I state, trying to get past my father’s Beta.“I already searched down here Rune. Lets just head to the party.” He finally looks into my eye but just for a brief moment before he looks away. I see panic within them and something inside me urges me to continue towards my father

Chapter 32Watching Rune being dragged from the office, I turn to look down at Tanya. She is shaking, tears in her eyes as she slowly dresses. My heart aches for her, for the woman I have fallen for.“He won’t marry me.” She states with a whimper, shivering not from cold, but from fear.“He will. There is a contract and he can’t back out.” I reassure her, tucking my finger under her chin and forcing her to look at me.“Why can’t you marry me Valor. My father will understand.” Tanya begs, stepping closer to me. Her pouty lips are formed into a frown and I find myself unable to stop from lowering mine down to hers and claiming that mouth in a kiss. She moans as my tongue shoves inside, tangling with hers. Pulling away, Tanya’s eyes are filled with lust and I feel myself slowly growing hard. I want to lock the office door and bend her over once more. To hear her scream and moan my name and beg me to fuck her harder.“The pack has already prepared the wedding for you and Rune. If we chang

Chapter 33Staring at the plan for tomorrow afternoon when the new Alpha of Onix Moon arrives, I silently cheer when my cell phone rings and throw the file onto my desk before answering the call. Only a select few were given my number and I have a feeling the call might be Caspian.“Brynlee here.” I answer, catching the sounds of a group of people running in the background.“Brynlee, it’s Jett, Caspian gave me your number.” Recognizing Beta Jett’s voice, I sit up as something inside me nags that this situation is serious. Jett only talked to Asteria while Caspian talked with me during our plans to save those running from Valor’s clutches.“What happened?” I asked, getting up from my office chair and leaving my office.“Something bad. I couldn’t reach Asteria, can you get her on the call.” He replies back, his voice filled with fear and rage. Making my way down the hall. I knock on the door and a moment later Asteria answers for me to come in.“Jett is on the phone.” I state, turning o

Suppressing the snarl rising inside me, I glare at the incompetent Omega that has just spilled my soup. She mumbles out apologies after apologies to me as she quickly moves to clean the spill with the paper towel on my table and kneels beside the chair I am sitting on.“Guards!” I call out, my words ending in the snarl that escapes my lips.“Have this stupid bitch punished for ruining my meal. I am carrying the future Alpha of this Pack and this Omega can’t even feed me properly.” I continue. The Dining Hall goes quiet at this, all eyes on me as two men step forward and drag the Omega away. She is kicking and sobbing, begging for forgiveness while two others step forward, bow to me, and continue cleaning the mess before disappearing. My stomach growls in hunger and I snarl in frustration. How dare these idiots keep me from eating!“My love, what has you so upset?” Looking up from the table, I find Valor making his way to me. His greying black hair slicked back and his eyes focused onl

Watching the bus pull in front of the Pack House flanked by our Warriors, I groan as Quincy fidgets beside me. Ever since lunch, he has been on edge, even having to end his patrol early because he could not focus and nearly fell into a ditch. Had someone not been there to stop him in his tracks, Quincy would have been seriously injured. His attitude has me believing that Rune is right and that maybe Quincy has been given a Second Chance Mate.The bus doors open and Gale is the first to step out. He makes a beeline for Asteria who stands to the side, scooping her into his arms and smiling. It’s been just over a week since he set out with Jett and the others to get the Willow Bark wolves, they must have missed each other.Jett is the next to step out of the bus, helping the others off one by one and telling them to stand just to the right so that we can get them all settled. I knew Jett said that the majority of the refugees had been pups, but I did not expect to see so many between the

Watching the scenery pass by, I listen to the pups behind me excitedly chat about our soon-to-be new Pack and what type of wolves we will be meeting. Gale and my Uncle have told us a lot about Crescent Phoenix and the one thing that has caught my attention is the Beta, Brynlee. She is the youngest Beta so far in the werewolf world. She is also the Goddess-given Mate of my enemy’s son.“We should be there within the hour.” A voice calls out from behind me, making me jump in my seat. Turning away from the window and the endless forest view, I find Ashton taking a seat beside me, his easygoing smile I have gotten used to making me roll my eyes. Even though we aren’t Mates, that hasn’t stopped this wolf from flirting with me, much to my Uncle’s warnings.“Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.” He apologizes.“It’s fine. I am just lost in thought.” I reply, letting out a sigh.“Something has me on edge and I can’t put my finger on it.” I admit, getting a hum from Ashton.“Could it be you are

Sitting in my office, hand on my stomach, I read the reports sent to Asteria and me from the Council early this morning for the third time and sigh. The investigation into Jonnah, Valor, and Tanya has taken a turn that surprises even me and I am not sure how I feel about it. Tanya is indeed pregnant and that the father of Tanya’s child is indeed Valor but that’s not the worst of the news. The worst part is about how Jonnah is on his fifth Mate after killing his fourth – the she-wolf that rejected Quincy.Gale had called stating he couldn’t get a hold of Asteria and wanted to let me know they were a few hours away from the Pack. That’s when I mentioned the email and news of Jonnah Cross being on his fifth Mate. He was pissed, to say the least, but gave me the good news that the Willow Bark Wolves have decided to talk with our Council Representative to help put the nail in our enemies' coffins quickly.This made the weight from the news weighing me down lighten up and after hanging up,

Sitting in the hospital room with Rune holding my hand, I nervously fidget with his fingers. Right now, we are waiting for Jasmin to finish with a patient so we can do an Ultrasound and find out how far along I am with my pregnancy. Rune silently watches me, concern in his eyes as he pulls his hand out of mine and pulls me closer to his side.“Everything is going to be fine Brynlee.” Rune reassures me, giving me a gentle smile.“So just relax and take a deep breath.” Closing my eyes, I do what he says and take a deep breath, breathing in his scent and feeling my nerves settle slightly. Over the last three days, Rune and I have grown closer as we worked side by side in preparing the pack for more construction.He would come to my office after his morning duties as a Warrior and after lunch, we would go over the map of Crescent Phoenix land and work on finding the perfect locations for new homes and dormitories for our constantly growing pack. Once we found the perfect locations, Rune w

Waiving at Brynlee as she drives away, I head into the Pack House in search of the Library she mentioned. I had not explored the Pack House being too busy with training and learning the patrol routes, so I felt lost inside this large building.“Can I help you, hun?” Turning to the sound of a friendly voice, I find a woman with soft blue-green eyes and strawberry blonde hair tied into a braid down her back in hopes of keeping the mess of curls tamed. She carries a stack of books in her arms as she watches me with a curious glance.“Yes actually.” I answer feeling relieved.“I am looking for the pack library and the woman who runs it, Alayne.” I continue explaining, watching a smirk spread across this she-wolf’s face.“Well, I can help you with both.” She responds, shifting the books so that they rest in her left arm while holding out her right hand.“Alayne Arctic at your service.” Shocked to find this unassuming she-wolf being the woman I am looking for, I shake her hand and realize th

Looking at the empty field that will be perfect for building new houses for new families and Mates looking to transition out of the dormitories and into their own homes, I sneak a peak at Rune as he leans against the front of my truck, a sketchbook in his hands. Right now, Rune is working on a basic sketch for three houses that will be built here come spring in hopes of having them ready for winter next year.“I never knew you could draw.” I muse, watching him jump in surprise before a blush of embarrassment creeps along his cheeks. After lunch, he and I had taken my truck out to drive around the territory, making note of the new land we received from Onix Moon a few weeks ago and finding a few good spots along the stretch of land where we could begin building more dorm buildings and houses families and newly mated pairs could move into. This is how we found ourselves relaxing in the warm fall sun when Rune brought a sketchbook out of the backpack he brought along on our ride.“To be

Glaring at the email before me, I suppress the growl threatening to spill. Our council representative has been hard at work investigating Valor, Tanya, and Jonnah to the point they have begun questioning the destruction of smaller Packs surrounding Blood Claws and Pine Moon. What is worse is that other than Willow Bark, no other survivors have been found from any of these smaller Packs that were destroyed. For all the Council knows, they have either become Rogues hiding deep in the forests in wolf territory or blending with Humans in the many cities.One thing is for sure, Jonnah and Valor have committed more crimes than we originally thought.Reading further along the email, my eyes widen and my hand instinctively reaches for my stomach. Judging by the images attached to the email and the medical report the Council’s spies were able to obtain, it seems that I am not the only one expecting a pup. Now the question is, whose is it?“Brynlee, are you in here?” The door to my office opens
The Howling Heart's Forgiveness Chapter 86
Watching Brynlee drive away, I wait for her truck to disappear from my view before deciding to head to my dorm room for the night and get some much-needed rest. Today has been an eventful day that has left me reeling with exhaustion. I had just finished patrol when a sudden urge of danger coursed through me. At first, I thought the warning was because Rogues had crossed our borders into the pack territory, threatening the pack. When I realized it was an internal warning from the Mate Bond, my wolf instincts took over and I rushed directly towards the danger warning without thinking. All I could think of was protecting Brynlee.’I knew I was being irrational when I barged into the training facility without warning. I knew how much of a prick I was when I swept Brynlee into my arms and carried her away from everyone without her consent, but my body kept moving on its own. I felt like a man possessed but until I knew Brynlee was safe in her den – in her cottage – I couldn’t relax.As soon
