“Sophia, I didn’t know that you had been through so much. Well now, you have all of us to look out for you now.” Lars said to me from across the table. It touched me that they were so accepting of me. Maybe we could do this.“Sophia, I hear your wolf is massive. Why don’t you join us at training later?” Zac said to me.“Yeah, why not? Only if Bria is up for it. She is resting at the moment.” I told him. “Well, I think it might be time for Marcus and I to go. We have a conference to organize. Sophia, I would like to introduce you as Derek’s mate, if that is ok with you? Angus will have to be invited, so will Jason. But we will keep you safe I promise.” Beatrice said to me.“Of course Beatrice, whatever you feel you need to do.” I said politely to her, after that everyone left.“See you at training later.” The others said as they left. I breathed a sigh of relief as everyone left. That had gone a lot better than I thought it would. But now I was anxious about the conference. It was goi
Derek’s POVThis girl was amazing, and now she is mine. No one else can have her now. I can’t believe we just mated and marked. I was going to wait till our birthday, but it felt so right. I could feel her love coming through the bond, just like I was pouring everything I had into the link as well. Her head was on my chest, she was made for me. But how was Bria her wolf going to go with transforming into a Lycan?“Son, I don’t want to interrupt your time alone with Sophia, but the king of the north has requested to speak to you and only you about the coming conference. It will be held in two days.” Mom said to me through the mind link.“No worries, Mom. We will be there soon.” I said, shutting the link off.“Baby, we have to go. Business is calling us.” There was no movement from her. I moved out from under her. She was not moving. My heart sunk. What the hell was going on?“Soph, wake up, baby.” I yelled at her, shaking her, but she wouldn’t wake up. The panic was setting in. She was
Derek’s POVI tried to dismiss everyone, but Olivia wasn’t taking the bloody hint. Her dad set this up. She thinks we should be together. Just because I fucked her once, she thinks she has a claim on me. I only slept with her because she was the closest person at the time and I needed to feel the touch of someone. But why hadn’t I told her about Sophia yet? She had her hand on my thigh during the entire meeting. It was still there, but I didn’t move it. I didn’t want to case a scene, but now all I wanted to do was check on Soph.“Brooke, anything?” I linked her.“No, she hasn’t moved. Sorry D. How is the meeting?”“Fucking Olivia is here. I haven’t told her about Soph yet. Soph doesn’t need to be subjected to her bitchiness yet. Her hand was on my thigh the entire time.” I sighed through the link, as I knew I couldn’t sigh out loud.“D, move her hand now. Put that bitch in her place.” Brooke said to me. I could hear the disdain in her voice. The girls didn’t like each other. Olivia ha
Sophia’s POV“Bria, are you ready to wake up yet?” I could feel the power running through our veins, we were stronger than we were before, we felt different. All of Derek’s strength we could feel as well.“I am Soph, can you feel how different we are?”“I can, when we will be able to see our new form? Are you a full Lycan?” I asked her.“I am not sure, it feels like I have two forms. There is a voice in my head Soph. She is the lycan side of us but I feel like I can still be a wolf if I wanted too. But I think no one needs to know that yet. We will keep it between us and Derek.” She said to me. This made me curious. Bria let me open my eyes finally.“Soph, you're awake. Did you want anything, water or coffee?” Brooke asked me. All I could do was smile at her. She was worried about me, but she was happy I was awake. I could sense how she was feeling. Weird.“Coffee please Chooky. How long was I out? Did I miss anything?”“Love the nickname. You were out for nearly a day. D has been so
Sophia’s POVI really didn’t want to leave Derek, but I needed to know about this Olivia. As soon as we left, all I could feel was the sadness. The feeling must have been coming from Derek as well. It was becoming hard to leave him.“You won’t be far from him Soph, we all live near each other because it's safer. The boys just live over there.” She said, pointing to the houses that were near Derek’s.“How did you find being away from your mate?” I asked her.“It was hard, but you learn that you have to. Sometimes the emotions are stronger because it's your mates as well. It would also heighten yours because of Derek being the Lycan king.”As we got to the front of Brooke’s house, something seemed off. There was a heavy feeling in the air, like something wasn't right.“Bria, do you sense that?” I asked her.“Soph, someone is coming and they mean us harm. Get ready to shift.” She warned me. As I turned to the side to warn Brooke, a wolf came around the corner. Bria came forward, forcing
Derek’s POVI had been away from her for too long, but I had needed to block her out, because if I didn’t I would have torn all wolves that we came across to shreds like I had before and I promised myself I wouldn’t do that, we were not going back to that dark place again. The lead the wolf gave to us before we killed him was false, and now he was dead. We were at a loss again. There was something that was nagging me in the back of my head, but we were too exhausted to think straight. The only thing I wanted to do was have Sophia in my arms.She was asleep in the bed, but she looked tired, like she had been having trouble sleeping. I felt guilty and I would take any anger that she had towards me. But right now, I needed her. The bed dipped as I laid next to her, breathing in her scent. I needed her body, every inch of her. I pulled her into my arms.“Baby, I missed you.” Whispering in her ear, her body responded to me. I was hard and needed to be in her. I kissed her neck, making my w

Derek’s POV“Are you ok Soph? I hope all of that was ok with you?” I asked her. It was worrying me that it was all going to be too much, especially going straight to the conference after that.“It was amazing, Derek. I can’t believe they were so gracious and accepting of me. I could sense that some people were reluctant, but I could guess who that was from. I have a plan for that one. So later one please trust me and just let me go with the flow.” What did she mean by that?“If she tries anything Soph, we are all here to look after you, plus D would kill us if anything happened to you on our watch.” Lars added in, I smiled at his answer. They really loved her already. Asher was going to be the one that we were going to have to watch now. We pulled up outside the building where we were going to be hosting all the meetings.“Son, all the guests have arrived. I am over seeing that all the guests are shown to their rooms, and letting them all know we will hold dinner and talk about what is
The darkness had consumed me, but I felt a hand grab mine, causing my eyes to open. I had been to this place before, but I couldn’t remember how. Looking at the hand touching mine, I saw her for how she really was, a goddess truly touched by the moon.“Do you remember how you got here, my sweet Sophia?” Her voice rung regal.“I am having some trouble, Selene. It seems that my mind is trying to stop me from remembering.” I was confused as to why. She stopped in front of me, still holding my hand, her other hand touching my cheek.“Will you allow me to show you?” She asked me. Nodding my head yes, I knew there were people waiting for me somewhere. Light shone from her hand and every memory that I ever had from when I was a baby right till my death flashed before my eyes. I saw all the love, all the hate. I gasped as the last memory stopped.“Will they be ok Selene?” I asked her.“Sophia, my child, would you like me to show you the future they have, or would you like to stand over all my
Why did he always assume that it was me? No matter what I did, he always thought it was me and I was tired of it. Here I was, accepting my fate to die so that they could live. Asher felt the pain he had just caused me. He was about to say something when I stopped him.“How dare you assume it was me? You always do this to me, Derek. I am sick of it. You ridicule me even though I accepted my fate so that you could live. I Sophia reject you, Derek, as my fated mate.” I said, and the bond snapped from me. The warriors gasped behind me.“You want to know where my mate is? I don’t know because I just rejected him. Even in death, he still chooses to believe the worst in me. As for my mate, you already know, Asher.” I told Zakari it wiped the grin off his face.“But you can’t have them both as your mates? It’s not meant to work like that.” He scolded me. The mate bond with Derek was broken by my side, but it wasn’t for him. That’s why I hadn’t said the rejection correctly, because I didn’t ne
Jarrod’s wolf was killing him slowly. His paw was on his head so that he couldn’t shift. Angus wasn’t even squirming. It was like he was welcoming death.“DO IT JUST KILL ME.” He screamed at us. He really wanted to die, but why should he? After all the pain he had caused me and countless others, death was the easy way out.“Jarrod, stop, don’t kill him. That would be doing him a favour. Chain him in silver.” Jarrod’s wolf cocked his head sideways. Asher disappeared and was back a few seconds later. Angus was now chained in silver and chained to the tree. Jarrod had shifted back.“What the fuck Sophia.” He said, coming straight at me. Asher stepped him in front of me and Jarrod stopped where he was.“If you touch her, Jarrod, I will rip you to pieces.” Asher’s voice was calm, and that’s what the scariest thing was.“I wasn’t going to touch her Asher, relax, but I want to know why she won’t let us kill him?” He questioned.“He wants to die Jarrod, we would be doing him a favour. See, we
Derek was going to be back in a few minutes. I could feel his aura getting closer through the mate bond.“As much as I want to stay here in your arms forever, we have to clean up. Derek will be back in a few minutes.” I whispered into his ear. Luckily, I wasn’t going to be alive long enough to worry about upsetting both of my mates. After we had a shower, which turned out to be a little longer than we thought because we couldn’t keep our hands off each other, we went downstairs. Derek walked through the door, instantly coming to the both of us and pulling us into a hug.“I am glad that the both of you were able to have that time together, but now I must talk nothing but seriousness.” He was hiding something in his voice that I couldn’t decipher what it was. He moved away, looking at the both of us. “Marcus and I have been talking, and we have come up with a plan. I am sorry, but I must leave both of you. I can’t stay here and watch you die, Sophia. It is selfish of me I know but on
Asher’s POV“The cost of this is your life, isn’t it?” I was choking on the words as I tried to get them out. “You both know this has to happen. I don’t know when it is going to happen, but I know it will be soon. It is the only way to keep our babies alive.” She told me her voice was not her own, she sounded other worldly. I knew this was coming, but I didn’t expect it to be so soon. I needed time. I could fix this. My heart was being ripped from my chest, falling to my knees. I was struggling to breathe. Her touch on my shoulder warmed my body, but it still didn’t take away the fact that she was going sooner than we thought. I had only just got her.“There is a cabin in the woods on the other side of the kingdom. You both should go and spend the night together there, please. I beg the both of you. We all need this. Sophia, baby, I love you, but you need to love Asher as well. Asher, you need her. Spend the night with her, make it worth it.” Derek said. He had sat down on the other
Asher’s POVKnowing what Derek was asking me to do was taking me away from our plans to stop this. But I couldn’t bring myself to leave. Sophia had suffered some much pain in her life times. And I couldn’t be the cause of more pain to her.“We need to stay with our mates and babies, Asher. If our mate has to die and all we can do is to be there for her, spending the time that she has left to make her happy, then that is what we will do.” Ivar ordered me.“I know, but the pain is too much, Ivar. How are we meant to keep going with knowing what is going to happen? And we know that Derek will do whatever he can to die as well after she does. I can feel it Ivar, he is not going to stay here on this earth if she isn’t here. This is why I am scared to finish forming the mate bond with her. We can’t afford to do that. We have to be the strong ones here for the sake of the twins. They are going to need us. We are their family.” Ivar was right, he always was, but I couldn’t help but feel I was
Derek’s POVWhen Asher told me to get Tim because the babies needed to get out, I don’t think I have ever moved faster in my life. Within minutes, we were back in my office carrying all the equipment that Tim required. She was in pain. I could feel it, but again she was blocking it through the mate bond, trying to save us from pain.“Soph, baby, let the pain through. We can help you take it.” I tried to explain to her, but she screamed, the pain in her voice causing me to fall to my knees. She was going to die and I wouldn’t be far behind her. The babies would have Asher. I just can’t be in a world which she isn’t part of. Jerek had heard Soph and Bria talking about what has happened in their other lives and there is no way that I was going to let her go through this shit by herself. We had to keep it to ourselves because I know she would make us swear to stay with the kids, but I wouldn’t leave her again.Asher backed away to let me in to take her hand. He had every right to be here
Sophias POV“You already know about this, don’t you?” There was no point beating around the bush.“Know about what, child?” He looked at me, confused.“He doesn’t know Soph, I am the only one that does. Although I suspect that Asher’s beast knows about it, but he hasn’t told Asher yet.” Bria confirmed with me.“Sorry Alaric, seems you don’t know, but I think you need to know because I need you to look out for my babies.” My voice sounded firm even to me. My strength was building, and I had a feeling that my babies were going to be here soon, so I needed to start putting plans into place.“What are you talking about, Sophia? Something is changing in you. I can sense it. What is happening?” He sounded concerned, which in all honesty he should be, because I had just accepted my fate that I have to die.“Alaric, I have to die.” I stated to him.“No, you don’t. We are putting plans in place so that nothing will happen to you.” “No, Alaric, that is not what I mean. My fate has been set, a
Sophia's POV“Soph, did you just feel that?” Bria was on high alert.“I did, but what was it?” I asked her.“Someone wants to hurt us, but they need us alive. We need to always be at arm’s length to these guys, just like Asher told us.” She was right. There was no way that we were going to be out of their sight. Automatically placing my hands on my stomach, I felt one of my baby's move towards my hand. “They love us all so much already Soph, but they are growing at a rate of three times quicker than a normal pup would. I would honestly guess we have less than a month before they will be here, so we must do everything they tell us tonight.” Bria commanded me this time. The way she was worried had me worrying, too. Both Derek and Asher were watching me with concerned looks on their faces.“Soph, what is it?” Derek asked me. He really was in tune with us ever since he had woken up from the despair that he had been in.“Let’s just say it is a feeling, but someone wants to hurt me, but th
