Well, I’m not totally surprised meeting Alpha Marcus like this for the first time. Everything I have read about him is completely true. He is one of the most arrogant people I’ve ever met. I’m so happy that Katelyn and Bridget have gotten away from that pack.
A cold chill rushes through my body when I think about Katelyn being the Luna for that pack.
I quickly shake my head. I don’t even want to think about it. She is my Luna, and I’m not letting her go.
As I round the corner to the penthouse suite, Ford walks out and calls down the hall to me. “Hey, did you get the extra keycards?”
I smile and raise my hand with the keycards in my grasp. As I shake them in the air, I reply, “Yeah. I also got to meet someone very interesting.” I continue talking through the mind link. “I met Alpha Marcus, Beta Malcolm, Future Alpha Mike
Oh, so his name is Wyatt, and he is an alpha. I wonder what pack. As I try to figure it out, my eyes slowly wonder to the gorgeous person standing next to him while my wolf perks up. However, my wolf slowly lowers his head as soon as I spot the mark on the side of her neck.Why am I feeling this way? It is almost like I’m disappointed, and that includes my wolf. I have a mate, who I’m happy to have, but why can’t I take my eyes off Katelyn. I remember her in school. She used to be in our pack.As I continue to stare at her, Bambi wraps her hands around my arm and leans her head towards me as she whispers, “Who are they?”With my eyes still stuck on Katelyn, I reply, “Katelyn and Bridget. They used to be in our pack, but Katelyn left as soon as my father announced you as my mate. Bridget left a few weeks later to go look for her. However, my father never really t
Alpha Marcus POV Oh, I want to puke. I glance around the two tables while I try to prevent my lip from sneering at Alpha Wyatt and his group. Can these guys be any more annoying? Not only do they get the best room, but they have the best table in the restaurant. I don’t care if they own the hotel. As a customer, I should be able to get what I want. Not only getting the best of everything, what is with Alpha Wyatt’s aura and pheromones? I have never seen anyone be able to get such a reaction like that beside me. Shoot. I have tried twice using my alpha voice and aura, but I couldn’t get it to work on any of the staff. But the first time, Alpha Wyatt raises his voice, everyone, including me, is bowing. Some people are even kneeling. It takes a really strong alpha to be able to do that. I have only heard of a few werewolves possessing such ability, but those
I can’t stop pacing back and forth. I know I’m supposed to be working with the trainees, but that phone call from Donna has got my mind and my wolf all rattled. However, the main question that I keep rolling over and over in my mind is whether Former Alpha Seth will actually bring her to our pack house. He wouldn’t, right? I don’t have to worry about it, right? With my mind focused on my mate, I stay at the edge of the forest next to the training grounds. I can’t really lead anyone right now, and with the upcoming reveal of our pack, I need to make sure everyone is trained properly. So, it is best for everyone if I just stay off to the side for now. As I continue to pace back and forth and wonder what will happen, I don’t even realize that it is getting dark outside. I’m too focused on my mate to pay attention to the time or that all the trainees have left the field several hours ago. I turn
Donna POVIt is really him. My mate.I stand frozen in the bathroom door. I want to go to him, but my body won’t move.I have worked for weeks and have tried anything and everything I can think of to be able to not only talk with Mason, but to meet him. I have to meet him. He is my mate. My heart and my wolf yearn for him.Mason’s eyes eagerly roam over my body and my chest as it rises and falls with my pounding heart. I can see the hunger that is quickly building within him. It is the same hunger that is currently building and churning within me. However, I have never felt anything this strong before. Yes, I would be turned on by Mark, but never like this. The moment I see my mate and hear his sexy voice mutter mate, my core throbs while my mind screams for me to claim my true mate. This is all new to me, and I like it.For the first time in
Katelyn POVI’m still in shock a little bit. I would have never guessed that there are so many in my old pack with such evil intentions, including my brother. Well, I have kind of figured out about Alpha Marcus, but my brother, Caleb, is what has me all worked up. I could care less about Bambi, but for the first time in my life, I sort of feel sorry for Mike. Not only does his father have an evil mind, but so does his Beta and his mate.I can’t bring myself to look into anyone’s mind yet, but Ford and Wyatt have filled both Bridget and me in on what we don’t know.Deep down, I know that there is something fishy when supposedly out of nowhere, Alpha Marcus announces Mike has found his mate. I wonder what the pack would say when they find out it is Alpha Marcus’ plan to join forces with Bambi’s pack, and Alpha Marcus has tricked Mike into thinking Bambi is his true mate.
Oh, I know I shouldn’t have done it, but I just wanted to knock that stupid smirk off of Alpha Marcus’ face and boy, did I.Ford’s voice booms within my head, “Baby, what did you do? No. I’m not going to ask about that. Instead, I’m going to ask why?”With a faint smirk on my face, I tear my eyes off Alpha Marcus and turn towards my mate. I innocently ask, via the mind link, “What? I didn’t do anything wrong.” I bat my long eyelashes a few times and act like I don’t know what he is talking about.However, Katelyn huffs through the mind link, “Yeah, right. I don’t believe it a bit. I’m not even reading Alpha Marcus’ mind, but I already know someone said something to him through a mind link.”Via the mind link, Wyatt adds, “Bridget, you need to refrain from doing things like that. We don&rsqu
Luna Joy turns back towards us and continues on. “When the group left, I ran to the unconscious girl laying on the ground. She doesn’t look much over 18, if that. Her clothes were ripped, but I couldn’t tell if that was because of the beating or because they were going to do something else more vile to her. I couldn’t handle seeing her like that and we immediately brought her back to our pack hospital. She has been unconscious ever since, so we know nothing about her. We are all waiting for her to wake up and find out what her name is and what pack she is from.”I glance over at Katelyn, who is wrapped up in Wyatt’s arms, with tears streaming down her face. She is so concerned about this omega. If the omega’s story doesn’t tug at my heart, Katelyn’s grief-stricken face would.The rest of the flight goes by fast as Alpha Ted and Luna Joy give us more information a
Katelyn POVHow can something like this happen to her? She did nothing wrong. Being an omega isn’t a crime, and it doesn’t justify what has been done to her.I want her to be safe.As I look at the girl’s beaten and bruised face, I can’t hold back the tears anymore. The pain she has gone through just because she is an omega is terrible and wrong. No one, regardless of them being an omega, should ever have to go through something like this. Absolutely no one.Tears begin to roll down my face. The pain not only in my chest but throughout my entire is too much. I don’t have to look into her mind, because I can physically feel her pain. That is one aspect of being a healer that I’m still grappling to understand and control.Every part of my body hurts. I mean really hurts. I don’t think those jerks missed any part of her wh
Katelyn POV I walk across my bedroom to the crib. Even though the baby is crying, and you can’t hear anything except him, I smile as I stop at the edge. Our first born and the next alpha to the Sun Moon pack. My pride and joy. I lean over the edge of the crib and softly coo, “Are you mad, Max? You can’t be hungry. You just had your milk.” I gently pick him up from the crib and begin to sway back and forth, while cradling my son in my arms. “Hush, baby. You need to rest. You have to grow up to be big and strong.” However, Max continues to cry. Knock. Knock. Still swaying back and forth, I glance up at the door. “Come in.” The door opens and Fiona pokes her head into the bedroom. “Uhm, you can’t get him to calm down again?” I slowly shake my head. She steps into the bedroom. “Do you want me to help?
I breathe a sigh of relief at seeing Alpha Marcus lying motionless on the ground. However, it is short-lived as I turn and scan the battlefield. My heart aches seeing all the injured and dead werewolves. This didn’t need to get to this point.A faint smile suddenly spreads across my face as my eyes stop at Sammy and Katelyn. Sammy is getting up off the ground and is completely healed. As she stands, she changes from her light tan wolf to Alpha Marcus’ gray wolf.Well, at least she is feeling well enough to use her abilities. That is a good sign.My mate is amazing.My smile slowly fades as my eyes spot Mike, who is staring at Katelyn and Sammy. What is Mike doing? He knows he can never have Katelyn again. Right.My thoughts are interrupted when the Supreme Elder calmly walks out of the trees, along with a few of the other elders, and scans around the open fiel
Mike POVI slowly open my eyes. The bright sun instantly makes me squint and close them again.I’m alive.I thought I was dead.I’m sure that I was being ripped to pieces.I lift my arm to block the bright sun from my eyes as I slowly open them back up. Wait. I thought I was in my wolf form. My wolf!I mentally ask, “Are you still here with me?”My wolf slowly mumbles, “Yeah, but I need to rest.”Oh, that is a relief.I move to sit up, but pain instantly shoots through my entire body. I quickly look down at my body, trying to see how bad the damage is, but I don’t see any. Wait. Where are my injuries?I quickly touch my legs and turn them slightly, but nothing. There isn’t one injury there. My eyes quickly go to my stomach and my chest, as my hands randomly pat that a
I watch from the side of the clearing as Mike goes limp on the battleground. NO!!!I try to run towards him, but Ford’s wolf quickly bites my ear and stops me. Through the mind link, he barks, “Bridget, baby, follow the plan. We know that this could be a possibility if Mike came here, but we can’t stop now. We have to take down Alpha Marcus.”I glance back at Mike, but he is gone. The only wolf laying lifeless on the ground now is Caleb.I slowly nod my head.Through the mind link, I announce, “It is time! Sammy, be careful. Everyone, get into position. Tammy and Fiona, you need to make sure that you focus and only use your powers against Alpha Marcus.”I glance around the battlefield. Again, through my mind link, I make an announcement to all the werewolves, except Alpha Marcus. “The future beta Caleb is dead, along with many others who supp
I bolt through the trees, over the boulders, and around the bushes. I move my feet as fast as I can. With each step, my heart pounds harder as the sound of battle hits my ears. The growls of victory along with the howls of pain stab my heart. This shouldn’t be happening, and it is all because of my father. His sick need to be the most powerful and have everyone bow down to him is too much. It must stop.No wonder my mother isn’t anywhere to be found. I’m sure that she couldn’t handle him either.With that thought running through my mind, I jump into the clearing. The sight that meets me is not something that I have ever wanted to see. Werewolves are everywhere and fighting to the death. The stench of blood and death is in the air.Nearby, several wolves are torn apart laying lifeless in a pool of their own blood on the ground while several other dead werewolves are sc
Wyatt POVKatelyn and I stand on either side of the wounded beta. We take our hands off the beta as he opens his eyes. After shifting back to his human form as we heal him, he looks between my mate and me, before he asks, “What happened? I thought I was going to die.”I shake my head. “Not today. We won’t let that happen.”A faint smile dances across Katelyn’s face. “We brought you back, and we will heal others too, as the battle continues.”Before the beta can ask anymore, I say, “Since you are back, we will go onto the next one.”Katelyn and I stand up and look around the battlefield, while the beta glances between my mate and me. However, we don’t get any rest, as Zee and Scott bring another severely injured warrior from one of our packs.The beta continues to sit and watch us as Katelyn and I take the injured
I burst into the clearing. The growls and howls of battle have been ringing through the forest, but I’m still surprised when I come into the clearing. Not only is Alpha Marcus’ pack here, but all of his allies, along with all of our allies. The clearing is full of werewolves. All of them are fighting with everything that they have.Our first wave of warriors appears from the forest at the same time that Katelyn, Ford, Bridget and I arrive. The plan is to have Katelyn and Bridget stay along the sidelines to use their abilities to locate people and heal them, if needed. The key person who we are trying to locate is Alpha Marcus.I glance around the field. I see a lot of blood and the smell of death is in the air, while fangs and claws continue to fly everywhere, but I’m not seeing Alpha Marcus yet.Before I can ask, Bridget states via the mind link, “Alpha Marcus isn’t here y
Mason POVWyatt has given the signal that things will happen fast now. Alpha Marcus has people trying to find out who is meddling with his allies’ companies.It is only a matter of time now.However, we still will not bring the physical fight to our pack lands. That doesn’t mean that our allies won’t see the war coming to them, though. When Alpha Marcus realizes our pack is behind everything, our allies won’t be safe either.Luckily, we have come up with a plan for that. Donna’s old pack is more than willing to have the physical fight on their pack lands, which is actually the best location. Her former pack’s lands are at the edge of Alpha Marcus’ alliance pack lands. On the other hand, our alliance packs are located practically in a semi-circle around her old pack, which is why it makes perfect sense to have the physical fight there.
Katelyn POV“I said that I’m just tired. There is no need to have the doctor look at me.” I scan the small group of people in my bedroom. Yes. My bedroom.I woke up just a few moments ago to Wyatt, Ford, Bridget and Dr. Bright standing beside the bed. They are all looking down at me, but I honestly don’t have the energy to fight right now. I’m just so tired.Bridget smiles and sits down on the bed next to me. She gently grabs my hands. “Katelyn, I saw the last two puzzle pieces. That is why we are here.”Wyatt huffs, “You still haven’t told me why you brought the doctor with you or who the last two pieces are.”With Bridget still looking at me, she smiles and gently rubs her thumbs against the back of my hands. “Their names are Max and Trish.”Wyatt sighs. “Okay. When are
