Jason’s POV
“What have you done?” Nick, the kings gamma shouted.
All eyes turning to me as he stood over the lifeless body of a pack warrior laying on the ground. Feeling the heat from his eyes as they burned into my own, I began to shift into my wolf ready to fight my way out. As beta of the Royal Pack, I was stronger than Nick but still had to get past the pack warriors also present. I brought my wolf Blake forward as quick as I could knowing I would need him to escape my sealed fate. Once I had shifted Blake took control lunging straight for Nick however, he rolled to the side shifting into his own wolf. Blake has dark brown fur and is slightly bigger than Nicks sandy coloured wolf Haze. Loud snarls filled the room as both our wolves circled each other.
“Join us Nick, join us or fall with the rest.” I shouted through our mind link. A link that was only possible being we are from the same pack.
Without responding Haze barrelled into us sending Blake flying into the wall with a thud. I felt my wolf’s anger as our invitation had been refused. Before I know it Blake is back on all fours pinning Haze to the floor. The sound of feral growls and the heavy thud of paws sounded like thunder drawing closer as more pack warriors arrived. I knew I was running out of time. With a hard bite and a kick, I rendered Haze unconscious and threw myself out the window.
Blake’s fall was softened by the pink rose bushes that Luna Vanessa the queen of the royal pack had planted just that spring with the help of her daughter Princess Angel who only recently turned 2. Angel looked so much like her mother, and I could only wonder if she would be as beautiful when she was older.
“I guess we will never know as for our plan to work the whole royal bloodline needs to be eradicated”
“I know Blake, but I can’t help but feel guilty at the thought of taking the life of an innocent child”
Though I knew Luna Vanessa would be upset once she saw the flattened rose bush, I knew nothing would anger her more than finding out I had betrayed her and my alpha king. See I had been approached by a group of rogues roughly six months ago asking for my help to become part of the royal pack. I had gotten them an audience with the Alpha King William, yet they were refused a place in the pack. They weren’t refused due to being rogues as Alpha William always believed everyone deserved a second chance, however he denied them because they wouldn’t disclose what made them become rogues.
His duty as Alpha king meant he had to have the best interests of the pack when it came to their safety, so the rogues not telling him what they had done meant they could be very dangerous and were not to be trusted.
I was asked to escort the Rogues to the border of our territory which was just one more thing to piss me off, as being a Beta I felt this shouldn’t be my job but that of a pack warrior. The rogues could see I was nearing my last straw and told me that they would help me to become the Alpha King if I was to help them destroy the royal family we had now giving them superior roles within the pack.
At first, I refused and threatened to kill them if they tried anything but after a few more weeks of being given jobs that should have been given to other pack members I sought out the rogues and took them up on their offer, from there forming our plan.
- Alpha Kings POV
It had been three months since I had denied the rogues sanctuary, and all had been quiet since. Or at least until this afternoon. After getting a mind link from my guards at the western border I immediately told my gamma Nick to get Vanessa and my daughter Angel to the safe room in the palace. Knowing they were safe would mean I wouldn’t be distracted while we got rid of the threat that Was making its way through my land.
I sent a mind link out to the rest of the pack telling them to get themselves and their families into the bunkers under their homes, hoping to have only my pack warriors out meaning less casualties.
I made my way to the balcony on the edge of my palace, this faced the direction in which the enemy was coming from. It didn’t take long before the putrid smell of rotten eggs hit my nose, telling me that the rogues were almost here. Just as I was about to shift my head warrior Owen mind linked me telling me that my gamma Nick had been found unconscious on the floor in one of the rooms on the second floor of the palace, in the south wing. The wing in which was reserved for the beta and his family once they had one.
To say I was confused was an understatement, how had a rogue gotten into the palace undetected. They weren’t the strongest of wolves as they didn’t tend to run in packs meaning they wouldn’t have access to the strength that comes from being part of one. Let alone having the ability to conceal their scent.
“Alpha I have been informed that beta Jason is aiding the rogues” Owens alarmed voice rang out in my mind.
“How did you find this out” I replied needing to know exactly what was going on. This was a serious accusation to make against a ranked pack member.
“One of the warriors witnessed the beta attacking the gamma, right before leaping from a window at the end of the corridor on the betas floor and running in the direction of the rogues” Owen confirmed.
Shit why the hell was Jason helping the rogues and what were they gaining from this. I sent a mind link to all of the pack warriors and civilians alerting them not to trust beta Jason. I wanted him captured if found, I would be interrogating him when this was over.
Alpha Kings POV I raced down to the safe room using my enhanced speed to check that Nick had gotten my family to safety before he had confronted Jason. As I entered the staircase that led to the safe room my nose was hit with the coppery smell of fresh blood. Fear and anger flooded my senses, and my wolf Maximus was growling in my head. He was just as pissed as I was promising to make Jason and everyone else involved pay. As I rounded the corner the corridor walls were splattered with blood and the lifeless bodies of two guards were torn apart on the ground. Maximus spoke in my head telling me what I already knew. The scent from down here wasn’t that of the rogues but of my lifetime friend and beta Jason. I flung the safe room door open and there on the floor was my beautiful mate and queen. Vanessa was alive but her injuries were bad, she wasn’t healing, and I could smell wolfsbane in her blood. “That bastard l
- Nicks POV I woke up on the floor, the bite on my shoulder nearly healed already thank the goddess for being a werewolf, if I’d been a human I wouldn’t start to heal for days. I took in my surroundings as I stood up, Jason was gone the window at the end of the corridor smashed so I’m guessing he jumped. I looked out and realised he must have landed on the rose bushes underneath, that would have given him a softer landing with less injuries if any at all. “The Luna’s going to be pissed when she sees them” my wolf Haze chuckled in my head, I nodded in silent agreement. I tried to mind link Marie and her wolf Violet but nothing, it was like I was hit by a wall. I heard movement outside and went to see what it was, a pack warrior was growling as he healed from what seemed to be a broken back leg. He would need to stay this way until fully healed
- Jason’s POV A week after I killed the Luna I decided I would try my luck with the alpha, he would be expecting me to be lay low after what I had done so this was the perfect time. I had spent the last week watching from a distance as the royal pack mourned their loses and even though I felt bad for the rest of the packs families, Blake reminded me that with war there is always casualties. The rogues I joined had set up camp about 5 miles away in a cave that seemed to go on forever with a few tunnels underground. The tunnels were used so that they could travel to certain areas without other wolves catching their scent. It turns out they had been there for quite a while and we never knew about them. We decided it would be best for me to face the Alpha by myself as the stench that they had would give their positions away immediately. I allowed myself to be seen by a guard near the lake kn
- Angels POV ‘BEEP BEEP BEEP’ I opened my eyes just as my alarm went off and yawned soo hard it literally hurt my face. “what are you yawning for you’ve slept for 14hours solid?” Said star. “Not only is it 7.30am but we had an intense sparring session yesterday remember, it wiped me out” I replied. Star is my wolf and first thing in the morning she has attitude, not that I can moan I’m just as bad or so aunt Marie likes to tell me, but I don't mind as she says my dad was exactly the same. I’m seventeen years old and I will be turning 18 in a couple of weeks which means I’ll be able to find my mate. We are supposed to get our wolves when we turn sixteen and that’s also when we shift for the first time but for some reason I got mine when I was t
- Bensons POV “Alright everyone i want you to pair off and not with the same person as yesterday, remember the stances you were shown and use them”I roared at the pack members that were scheduled to train today. Our training sessions were split into different age groups making it easier for us to train everyone. Training started the morning after a pups sixteenth birthday as this is when the moon goddess blessed us with a wolf counterpart, we could tap into our wolves senses when we needed to increasing our hearing, speed and strength. We would train in human form to begin with then learning to train in wolf form once we had mastered the moves and techniques. This way had proven to be the best and had been done ever since Jakes dad John was alpha. Ranked members of the pack however were stronger then the other pack members. I myself am a beta and could beat th
Alice’s POV I could feel myself becoming wet, my panties dripping with my arousal. Bensons eyes turned black with lust as he noticed the scent. He picked me up wrapping my legs around his torso. No matter how many times I had seen this man naked I couldn’t believe how lucky I was to be mated to such a sexy man. Benson was 6ft2 with short black hair which he always had spiked up using way to much gel if you are my opinion, deep chocolate coloured eyes and olive skin. My goddess let’s not forget about those muscles. My man is ripped. As he put us into the bath I moved my hand along his chiseled chest following with a kiss to each part of skin I touched. I slowly moved me hand further down his god like body stopping when my hand came into contact with his hardened member. This man was as hard as steel and I was the only one that could do it to him. I gripped his member with my small hands and slowly began to move it up and down stead
Angels POV My birthday was only three days away, three days until I would hopefully find my mate. That's if he actually resides in this pack. We had been back to the waterfall a couple of times in the last week and saw the sexiest man we had ever seen at least four times. He was easily 6ft2 he had tanned sunkissed skin and short black hair that he combed to the sides. Ok so he had a smaller version of Johnny Bravos hair but it didn't stop him looking hot. He looked like a muscleman with the most interesting tattoo on his chest. It was a wolf howling at the moon. Everything about him sent a fire roaring between my legs. Yes I know hot perverted I sound right now. I don’t know how, but I knew this drop dead gorgeous man was the black wolf we had seen here before. “My goddess I want to come out and play with him” Ok so my wolf is as
Jason’s POV “So Nick and his bitch have been hiding her, can’t say I’m surprised he did go missing shortly after what we did to Alpha William and he always took his position seriously” Blake was right I should tell have know they had her. I had joined up with Wayne and the other wolves I sent out to find Angel. When I found her what I heard angered me. The Alpha of the Moonlight Pack had called her mate just before he shifted and ran off. This wasn’t good it meant I had to get to her before he could claim her, this wasn’t going to be easy. Wolves were possessive creatures but alphas were worse, at least ten times worse. I needed to know where Angel, Nick and Marie were living. It couldn’t have been in the pack house otherwise he would have already claimed her. “I could have sworn her birthday isn’t for anot
Angels POV “If there’s anybody here this afternoon who’s feeling nervous, apprehensive and queasy at the thought of what lies ahead, it’s probably because you’ve just married the groom” everyone began to laugh as Benson started his best man’s speech. “No seriously Angel I’m so glad you two found each other, I mean had you not come along we would have been stuck with a rude, bad tempered, bully of an Alpha and let’s face it no one wants one of them. You have honestly done what I didn’t think was possible. You tamed him and his wolf, made him an honest man and because you know how much you love him and me you will make sure I’m still breathing when I’m done” Benson literally had the guests along with Jake and I in stitches, my face and tummy hurt from all the laughing. “Angel is a good kind-hearted woman and as a Luna she’s done more for the pack than I ever thought possible. So having said that there’s no doubt she deserves a good husband so Jake thank your lucky stars she ma
Angels POV I got to sleep so easily last night that I would have thought I was as going to stay that way until my alarm sounded. How wrong was I. I couldn’t sleep for the life of me I was too anxious about what today was going to bring. I didn’t have cold feet I was worried something would go wrong. Looking at the clock I still had an hour before my alarm was due to ring, so I turned it off and ran myself a bubble bath. Ariel was still fast asleep in the next room, so I was ever so quiet as I moved around the lounge avoiding every squeaky floorboard I could remember. Just because I was wide awake didn’t mean she needed to be.
Jakes POV It wasn’t unknown knowledge that when a woman had a baby, they felt forgotten like their only role now was to be a mum like that’s all they were meant to be. I didn’t want that to be Angel. I wanted her to keep her identity to feel like she was still the same sexy woman I fell in love with because she was so much more than ‘just a mum’ and she deserved to know it. Every chance I had I would do something to show her just that. When Angel told me she was going to take the flowers to the chapel I planned the picnic. I knew Angel loved picnics so having researched the area I found the perfect spot; everything just fell into place after that. To say she was shocked was an understatement. She practically pounced on me. The weather was still chilly but regardless it was the perfect afternoon and I promised Angel that after the wedding we would make it a regular thing, we would have dates that were just the two of us and family dates.
Jakes POVAfter the confrontation with my cousin, I wanted nothing more than to get back on the road having now lost my appetite. I was seething with rage yet for once Hunter was calm and collected. He had always been the one to spur me on almost forcing me to choose the violent option, but this time he didn’t. He pleaded with me to remain calm, that Brad was going to get his that it was only a matter of time. The others however, refused to leave until they had eaten so listening to my wolf, I swallowed my pride and sat down. Once everyone had finished and an hour had passed by, we were finally back in the cars and moving.
Angels POV“Well, this dark haired beauty here is Athena she’s the youngest of the two and this little beauty is Vanessa” my face hurt like mad with the smile that sat on my face as Jake and I introduced our pups to my family over video link.“Oh my goddess, bless their little hearts they have got to be the prettiest little things I’ve ever seen” Rita whispered as she edged closer to the screen trying to get a better look at our gir
Angels POVMy heart was overwhelmed with the love I felt for my beautiful pups, never in my life did I imagine I could love anything this much. They were absolutely perfect they both had olive skin and blue eyes. The older pup had a few blonde ringlets on the top of her head while the younger pup had short jet-black hair matching her father. Jake was as besotted with them as me, when it became time for the nurse to do their post birth checks Jake didn’t want to put the pup down.Benson, Sid and Ariel had been in to see us and I’m pretty sure Ariel left broody as hell. They had asked us what names we had in mind but if I was being honest, I had only thought of one, Vanessa after my mum. The woman that gave birth to me and died protecting me. Jake chose the name for our younger pup, Athena the name of a Greek goddess. He said it was fitting for her due to the power of my own grandmother the moon goddess that resides in her
Angels POV “So, Luna, Alpha, the pups appear to be growing at an astonishing rate. The growth they have shown over the last two weeks is something I have never in all my years as a doctor seen before. If I hazard a guess, I would simply put it down to your goddess bloodline. Nevertheless, I’m pleased to say they are both completely healthy, so I assure you there is no need to worry. Are you wanting to know the genders of them or are you wanting it a surprise?” We we’re back for another check up with Dr Jones as Jake thought something was wrong when I almost doubled in size overnight. “We would however you aren’t to tell anyone. We hope you can understand that we want it to be a surprise for the pack” Jake responded using the slightest tone of an Alpha command. “Yes Alpha, well in that case congratulations your having twin girls” I was shocked to say the least, deep down I had
Jakes POV “Well, that was messy yet oddly satisfying, shame Benson missed it. I know Rocky would have enjoyed the show” Hunter was amused at how my idea for Wayne and the electrical current worked out as originally he had thought it would fail.“You ought to have more faith in me wolf. Told you he would talk… eventually. As for Benson goddess only know where he’s got to”“Shame he didn’t sing like a cannery sooner, a bit like Benson is probably doing with that witch. Still can’t believe his hand exploded, could have saved the omegas a mess to clean up” Hunter howled with laughter, we really were well matched.After disconnecting the machine from Wayne’s now fried body, I checked for his pulse. He was hanging on for dear life, could he not just give in already and save us the need for an ex
Jakes POV “Ahhhhhahahaaaa” Wayne’s screams filled the room as I made tiny cuts over his naked body before dabbing each one with an acid solution.“Who did you get information for and why” I asked again growing tired of not being given the answer to my questions.Three hours that’s how long we had been down here and with everything I had done to Wayne he remained shut lipped, well except for the screams. I had tried a dozen different techniques, yet nothing was working, for someone that seemed to have given up on life he certainly held his own. Whenever I normally interrogated anyone, they gave up everything they knew within an hour or two due to the ways in which I extracted it, but not this time. Having been mind-linked by Angel letting me know she would be back shortly, I decided I needed to up my game I wanted to be able to tell her it was over when she returned.
