Chapter 28 - Morning After

Jessica POV

I sat up in bed stretching my aching bones. I would not let on, but the Beta had beat me pretty good. I was coming along thanks to my wolf, but it was slower than usual. I think the Beta gave me a dose of wolfsbane without me knowing it. It would be the only thing that would explain my limited healing. And it would explain why I could not fight back when he attacked me.

As an Alpha I was typically strong. Most people did not realize it right away, but the Beta knew when he brought me to the questioning room. He taunted me, and then started kicking the shit out of me. There was one point I did not know if I would make it but then as if he knew his limits he stopped and dragged me back to my cell.

Mandy thinks she is weaker but to endure what he dished out; she was much stronger than she realized. Looking around the room I see a fresh pile of clothes available. Whoever was looking after us was amazing and thoughtful. The

Yes, won’t it be nice if Jessica found someone. Maybe she could be the Gamma. I think that would be great.

    Carrie POV I had a great morning catching up with Mandy. I was a little concerned at how quiet Jessica had been. She was happy for Mandy; I could see that. But she seemed distant. Perhaps it was bothering her that we had found our mates and she had not. I believed hers was coming soon. I just hoped she would be open to him when he arrived. Now I was getting ready to meet with the Wolf Council. I was pretty shaken at what was to come but Jackson has spent every moment assuring me it was going to be alright. I hoped he was right. But he could not be certain. Adam was a cheat and deceitful. He could play the charming role easy enough. Standing in Jackson’s room … well our room, I guess. I just stood in the middle of the room uncertain what to do next. “You need to eat. You have not eaten at all today,” Jackson says as he comes up behind me wrapping his arms around my waist. I put my hands on his arms and lean back trying to absorb some of

    Jackson POV I scan the document and see the conditions. My heart sinks, but I have a strong resolve. “This is a fake. Where is the original?” I demand as I feel Carrie’s terrified eyes on me. “Do you think I would be so stupid as to bring it?” Adam smirks. “It is locked away safely in a special place,” he adds while watching my mate with hatred in his eyes. “What does it say?” Carrie asks softly. I cannot look at her in this moment. I know she was not of sound mind when she signed this document, but it was damning assuming it was legitimately her signature on it. “Name your price,” I say to Adam as I stand there tensely looking at him. “The only price are the conditions of that contract,” he replies. “Bullshit. Everyone has a price,” I taunt him. I see his face redden with anger as he tries to take a step forward but is blocked by my warriors. “She owes me an heir. Once that heir is delivered, then she is free to be with whomever she wan

    Carrie POV I was shaking to my core. The fact that I had done something that now jeopardized my happiness was terrifying. How could I have been so dumb as to sign whatever was put in front of me? I remember that moment. It is embedded in my mind. Being told to sign the wedding documents by the lawyer who was present. Adam standing over me nudging me when tears overcame me. And the smile on his face once the papers were signed. I should have known there should not have been so many documents to sign. But at the time and the threat that was being held over my life, would I have been able to refuse? I did not think so. I knew my fate had been determined that day, but I did not realize just how much had been decided. “What about your father, Carrie? Don’t you wonder what will happen to him now that his debt is not paid?” Adam smirks at me as Carleton stands between us and Adam. “Do you think I care about a man who sold me off to someone like

  • The Luna's Fated Mate   Chapter 32 - It's Not Good

    Jackson POV I did not want to admit to Carrie that I was worried about the Wolf Council and proving what her wolf said to be true. It would be her word against Adam’s and Adam played dirty. Clearly. They would not force her to return to her mate but there could be repercussions that I did not want to consider. Repercussions that would take her away from me in one form or another. I gave myself a shake and put on a smile as Carrie moved in my arms. It would soon be time to head downstairs for supper. Now that she had accepted to stay with the Pack it was time to introduce her to everyone formally. Carrie stretches like a little feline in my arms rubbing her naked body against mine. I feel myself harden as she rubs her hot pussy against my leg. I can tell, even in her sleep, she is ready for me. She slowly opens her eyes and looks up at me. She has a dusting of pink on her cheeks which makes her even sexier. “Hello,” she whispers as I lean d

  • The Luna's Fated Mate   Chapter 33 - Meeting the Luna

    Carrie POV The nerves I felt were going to blow me apart. Jackson had given me a watered-down version of his discussion with Carleton. Not that he admitted that to me. I simply gathered from his tone on the phone to what he was like when he spoke to me, he was trying to ease my worry. His actions amplified it. Walking into the dining hall was causing me some anxiety as well. Everyone was staring at us. Some were smiling. Some were glaring looks from what I would assume to be women who had their sights on Jackson before I arrived. And others were neither consumed with us one way or the other. Jackson helps me to my chair to the right of him and takes his seat at the head of our table. Looking around I could see some were still looking at us curiously. Jackson takes my hand and squeezes it giving me more comfort than he would ever realize. I smile at him and nod that I am ready. Clearing his throat Jackson stands and draws everyo

    Carrie POV As Jackson and Christian were finishing their meal movement out the corner of my eye caught my attention. I look over and to my surprise I see Jessica, Mandy and Josh entering the dining hall. I wave to them; they smile and wave back but move to a table away from us even though there were spots at our table for them to sit. “The warriors have their own tables, Carrie,” Jackson says to me explaining why they did not come over. “Oh,” I reply feeling a little hurt and lost that I could not sit and talk to my friends. I sat there for a moment and stood up, as Jackson and Christian both stood uncertain what I was doing. “I am going to see my friends,” I say to them both. Jackson looks like he wants to argue, but I see Christian is mind-linking someone. Before I know it, Jackson nods, “Come get me when you are ready to leave,” he says as I move away from him. I walk towards the table catching the confused looks some of the Pack members we

    Carrie POV “What?” I ask her wiping the tears from my face. Jessica looks between Mandy, and I before moving to stand and pace in the room. “What do you mean?” Mandy asks as Jessica turns to look at the both of us. “I need to leave. I cannot stay here,” she replies. “But why not?” Mandy asks getting upset. “My mate never rejected me,” she says in a rush. We both look at her stunned with what she just said. “How?” I ask but Mandy cuts me off, “Why?”. “Suffice it to say he was going to reject me, but I left before he could,” she says shocking both of us. “What happened?” I ask her trying to make sense of what she is saying. “I heard my mate talking to someone about me. He said how weak I was. How I was not what he wanted and that he had someone he was going to pick as his Chosen mate,” she replies turning away from us but not before we saw the unshed tears in her eyes. I stand and move to stand beside her putting my hand on her arm.

  • The Luna's Fated Mate   Chapter 36 - Change of Plans

    Jackson POV The next morning, we were training once again. Carrie had a ways to go but she was getting better quickly. Jessica and Mandy were training with her and the three were strong as a unit. Jessica and Mandy had clearly been fighting to stay alive, as they were quick on their feet. We had not seen Carrie shift yet. I did not know if she was ready for that. I had not spoken to her about going through her shift yet, but I needed to. When we did her ceremony, it was tradition that the Alpha and Luna shift and lead the Pack in a run. I hoped she would be ready for that as it solidified the unity of the Pack. “Again,” I say to the three of them as they continue hand to hand combat. Mandy whines, “I am ready to fight in wolf form,” she replies as Jessica nods her agreement. Josh is helping me with training this morning and looks to me wondering what our next move is. “Alright, if you want to shift into your wolves, you two can both practi

    Carrie’s POV Jessica, Mandy, and I sat watching our pups. Jessica and Mandy each had a boy. We had thought one might be a female but had a pleasant surprise when two males were born to my two best friends. Colton, Rosie’s pup and my half-brother, were playing with the boys. It was easy to see they were best friends being born so close to one another. Unless Colton was upset about something. Then his temper showed through. We were concerned and already working with him to control his anger. Even at his young age, we knew we needed to build the capacity within Colton to control himself, at all times. It was challenging for Jackson and me. Having a gifted child when I was still learning my own talents was keeping us on our toes. He was going to be more talented than me. It is incredible but we now believe that my father had enhanced his powers in some way that resulted in Colton’s talents being enhanced. The challenge of trying to anticipate

    Carrie POV Before I can move, Christian steps forward. I see tears in the doctor’s eyes as she looks at her mate, knowing her fate. “Please, I am sorry,” she whispers as Christians looks at her with hate in his eyes. He is owed this. She almost destroyed him and the fact that she is his mate is only a cruel twist of fate. He leans forward placing his lips on hers. One solitary kiss from his mate before he reaches his hands up to her neck and snaps it as her lips rest on his. He steps back, cradling her body in his arms. I feel tears of my own rise up as I watch helplessly at our friend being forced to deal with the crappy hand he had been dealt. Without saying anything else, Christian turns and walks out of the gala event with his dead mate in his arms. Nobody spoke. They simply watched the tragic event in slow motion. As Christian exits the building, I can hear people starting to speak softly. Talking about calling it a night. Sadly, I a

    Carrie POV Christian cut off the words the doctor was about to say. “Christian!” I yell wanting to hear what she had to say. Christian was determined to snap her neck. Jackson was beside him trying to unwrap his hands around her neck. My mother kept yelling for Christian to do it. “Christian stop!” I command with all my power. Many surrounding us started to drop to their knees at the wave of power that left my body. Christian dropped his hands turning his angry glare on me. The female doctor leans forward gasping for air. “Why?” Christian demands. “We need to know who Rosie’s baby’s father is, Christian,” I say to him trying to reason with him. “It is my right to destroy her,” he says with anger. “I understand but this is important,” I say to him looking to Jackson. I know he is wondering as well and wants the answers from her. I feel a sense of trepidation as I move towards the woman. My mother is struggling to get out of Josh’s hands,

    Carrie POV I block the bolts of power coming at me with my arms. It is as if my arms have become shields of steel and I simply have the intuitive awareness of how to deflect her attack. She moves closer as I step back. Taking a chance, I flip my right arm and make like I am tossing something at her. It shocks her and she stumbles backwards with a smirk, “Just testing out your powers, I see,” she says as she steps closer to me pushing a stronger wave of force at me. Before I can respond I am pushed backwards. My shoes fall off and I land on my ass. I hear Jackson yell my name, but I cannot look to him. I have to focus on the threat. She continues to stalk towards me as I crawl backwards trying to get my bearings. I am working my way towards standing when she slams into me again this time knocking me back and winding me. “If you were smart, you would stay down. As much as I want you dead, your father would never forgive me for destroying you

  • The Luna's Fated Mate   Chapter 119 - Party Crashers

    Jackson POV It has been a week since Carrie received the email from her mother. After a few months reprieve I had started to wonder if they would just give up. I had hoped they would give up. They were after something. I simply did not know what it was. Carrie was too independent. She could live on her own without them. She had always wanted her mother but not like this. Not this woman who had seemingly abandoned her at a young age for the greater good, as she liked to imply. We were all getting ready for the Gala event we were hosting. We had spent every waking moment well into the wee hours of the night, planning for every type of attack we could imagine. Christian had gone darker if that were possible. Now that the end was imminent, I knew he would take out the female doctor, or die trying. And that scared me. He had no fear of death. It was as if he had looked it in the face once and he was prepared to die if it meant taking out his

    Carrie POV It has been three months since we last saw my mother, brother, or his mate the female doctor. Everyone has been on intense alert since that fight. Our warriors were exhausted from all the additional training and extra shifts they have been taking to protect the Pack. Jessica has settled into her job working with Carleton for the Wolf Council. They continue to try and find leads as to where my family is but have had no luck. They are all wanted and considered dangerous. There are huge bounties on all of them. I do not want them captured. I want them dead. They are wreaking havoc with my family and my doctor is concerned the stress is impacting my ability to get pregnant. I am exhausted myself worrying about how much I have brought to Jackson’s doorstep. He continues to tell me to stop worrying. He will stand by my side regardless. But the Pack did not sign on for this either. They continue to be supportive, but I know they are

  • The Luna's Fated Mate   Chapter 117 - Long Gone

    Carrie POV Jackson returned to us and shared what they learned so far. Which was not much. My mother had attempted to have Randy freed, but Jackson quickly replied, “It is out of my hands. The Wolf Council is taking him into custody, and he will be charged accordingly.”. “That is outrageous. We have neutralized the threat!” my mother exclaims. “Take it up with Carleton. He is making transfer arrangements as we speak,” Jackson says without sympathy. “Carrie you must do something to help your brother,” my mother pleads with me. Shaking my head, “I am sorry, but I cannot. He betrayed me and my Pack; had he succeeded it would have been the end of us,” I reply to her. Jackson looks at me with love and pride at my response. The rage that crosses my mother’s face surprises me, but she quickly contains it. That causes me to pause for a moment as I watch her. “You have his wolf, his powers … what more do you want?” she asks coldly. “It is not abo

  • The Luna's Fated Mate   Chapter 116 - Uncertain

    Carrie POV “Do you sincerely believe he deserves to have his wolf, after all that he has done?” my mother asks. I sit with that question. Did I think he deserved his wolf? I had not been prepared to help save him, yet I worried about him being without a wolf. A wolf was so much a part of who we were. And having been without my wolf for so long, I could easily identify with the devastation. “I do not know the answer to that question,” I respond honestly. “Well, you have time to decide,” my mother replies. “What do you mean?” I ask. “You have taken his wolf into your care; you can give it back or let the wolf go to its resting place. The choice will solely be yours,” my mother says softly. I sit back in my chair and chew my food slowly. Mandy is sitting silent listening to the conversation. “What do you think?” I ask her as she looks at me in surprise. “I think it is as your mother has said. It is your choice; your decision,” she replies.
