The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 53 - Cold Turkey
Pierce POV Her temperature keeps spiking, her body burning off the reminders of the drug within her system…years of the poison having coursed through her veins. Now fighting against her wolf, trying to take back control. When I think I have tackled her fever with a cold damp washcloth, it peaks again…the sweat pouring off her has soaked through to the bedsheets. Scrambled, incoherent words escape her lips before nightmares return to her, her hands clawing at the wet bed sheets as I repeatedly try to calm her whilst she remains unconscious, giving soothing words into her ear. I haven’t left her side for 36 hours, my own body was ravenous yet I didn’t dare leave her and I didn’t want any house staff seeing their luna like this. She will come out the other side, but she has had to suffer and at least I can make sure she does it in private. Yet not alone, never alone. Her heart rate starts to level out, her breathing calming as the last of the wolfsbane that has been fed to her d
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 54 - Making that call
Pierce POV It’s a phone call I didn’t want to make. But I knew I had to, as both the alpha of the Grey Howl pack and also as Libby’s mate. Reuben has been searching for Natascha for months, unbeknown to him she has been using his own sister as a method to get to him. I wait until Libby is asleep, her recovery still a long path but one I will walk alongside her throughout. She would never have been ready, so I made that decision for her…helped to carry her heavy load. Rightly or wrongly, I took control. Sitting down at my desk, the moon shines brightly in the sky behind me…the pack grounds blanketed in a peaceful darkness as my pack members sleep. I reach for the phone, knowing as soon as I dial his number, all hell will break out. He won’t let this go unchallenged, he won’t stop searching for her. Natascha’s men may have attacked my borders last night, but if I make this call…I am unleashing a hell upon her, a hell she will not survive. A hell she deserves for daring to manip
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 55 - Milk and Bread
Pierce POV Three days have passed since I forced Libby to go cold turkey. She hasn’t left the house yet, and neither have I. Beta Dane visits us regularly, giving me daily reports on the pack. I had discharged Annabel from the pack’s cells, but crimes against my luna would not be forgotten or forgiven. She was on thin ice, one wrong move and I will end her. My wolf’s hearing was glued to Libby’s heart rate at all times, any change and I knew I needed to take her mind off the cravings. Give her food, give her fluids, take her mind off what she is craving, what her body is actually needing. As Dane reads out the night time report, her finger excessively taps on the arm chair, her breathing quickening…both Dane and me notice it, both our eyes watch her carefully. She stands up, wrapping the long cardigan tightly around her as she moves towards the kitchen. I go to follow her until she reprimands me from out of sight, saying she was making herself some bread and milk. I need to le
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 1 - A different life
Libby POVHow can my caravan have so much condensation in one night. All I do is breathe. It’s not as if I am having wild rampant sex in it all night. Although, I do often dream of a certain somebody licking me all over. Which then results in me waking in the early hours covered in sweat and a prolonged unsatisfied need that doesn’t leave me until mid morning. But it means I did wake up cold. Thankfully, I had a good night sleep last night, no dreaming of a certain male who I promised myself I would never think about again. What would be the point. That was my past life. As I make myself a morning cup of coffee, I push open my caravan door desperate to let fresh air circulate on this early spring morning. It was 5am and the sun still seemed hours away from rising and overpowering the soft moon’s glow. It was dark, cold and silent...just how I liked it.I was already wrapped in 4 layers of clothing, it was still cold in the mornings but nothing compared to the freezing nights o
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 2 - A hike worth the distance.
Libby POV I have enough time to revisit the married farmer’s house and collect their personal chicken eggs for today. They said I could, said I could help myself whilst they were away. They seem to trust me, they don’t let anybody else do it. I plan to use the eggs to make pancakes for dessert tonight. Beth was looking a little bit too gaunt for my liking. I noticed at breakfast she gave Ben her sausages, claiming she wasn’t hungry. Her brother, being of the muscular type, is known for spending all his money on extra food. She must worry that he isn’t getting enough nutrients. He’ll come back later today with bags of food from the town’s supermarket. He can’t help himself. I don’t think Beth was full though, I think she is kind. But she’s not eating enough to keep her own energy levels maintained for this labour intensive workload. And it is hard work, there’s a reason it is called manual labour. Beth is a lot older than my niece Elspeth, 10 years in fact, but she makes me thi
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 3 - That’s not a dog.
Libby POV I don’t wait, I tear the package open with one hand and reach behind with the other to take my water bottle out of my backpack. Her eyes don’t leave me once as I take not 2 but 4 tablets. “That’s a lot…”“I’m fine, I know what I am doing.” I mutter back as I swallow 4 little green pills in one hit. These were different, not as strong as before. However, they start to work immediately. I rejoice internally as my tensed muscles start to relax, that inner voice slowly disappearing again back into the abyss. Just where I like to keep it. I take a long deep breath in, cracking my neck to the side before returning my attention to the female in front of me. She takes a long drag on her cigarette before blowing it out towards my face. She’s not the warmest of characters. “Thanks for coming so quickly, how have you been?”“Yes, yes all fine. I can’t stay…” She’s not as talkative as she normally is. Usually it was me trying to get away from her, not her trying to get away from
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 4 - Not a wild wolf.
Libby POVThe wolf seems somewhat tame…it just keeps trying to bite at the trap around its ankle. Which when I watch Ben touch, every time he pulls his hands away as if it was hot to touch. He swears before trying to touch the trap all over again. “I’m sorry, I can’t…” He whispers to the wolf. His shoulders slumped as he finally has to admit defeat. I don’t understand what has happened and why Ben has got himself involved with helping a wild animal, the farmer couple would have shot it on site.“Here, let me take over.” I crouch down beside him, very slowly stroking the side of the wolf’s tummy, reassuring it that I wasn’t here to cause anymore pain. I keep my movements slow, not wanting to lose any fingers if the wolf decides to snap at me for handling it too roughly. “Is the trap hot?” I mutter to Ben under my breath. I don’t know why, it’s not as if the animal could understand me. “Why?”“You keep pulling your hands away as it if it is hot?” I prepare myself, expecting it to
The Legacy of the Alpha King: Sins of the Father Chapter 5 - Keeping secrets.
Libby POVI have to think on my feet, as much as I like Ben, I’m not ready for my past to return to me. Even talking about it brings back flashbacks of that lake house… “I witnessed a man shift in front of me.” This isn’t entirely untrue, a big black wolf did shift the first time I was chased by werewolves. The naked delicious man is who I often dream about. “Fuck! That must have scared the shit out of you.”“You could say that.” “He let you go?” Ben presses further. It was unheard of for werewolves to shift in front of humans. But I was on the run back then and had been cornered. I didn’t know about the werewolf world back then, that fateful night giving me a crash course. “Not exactly…”I don’t elaborate further, I wasn’t let go…but escaped in the most horrific of circumstances. “Who are you and Beth running from?” I ask Ben, keen to move the topic off me. “What makes you think we are running?” He quirks an eyebrow at me. I thought I knew Ben and Beth, but all this time the
