CooperI know many were hoping or anticipating that Harold and Savannah would be mates, but after thinking it through, I've come up with another plan for Alpha Harold...

The Pack's Doctor Chapter 45: Taking Charge
WarrenEven with his ‘honesty’, Alpha Harold severely understated the state of his pack. My pack was in bad shape, his is on the verge of dying out. I realize immediately that it will take Yara days to care for everyone here.“What can I do?” I ask her, knowing that she needs more than just Savannah. I step up behind her, putting my hands on her hips and pushing my energy into her. I can feel how overwhelmed she is and knowing that she’s the only doctor here, the majority of this will fall onto her.“Do you have omegas who can sew?” she asks Alpha Harold.“Yes,” he says.“Get them here,” I say to him, looking around.“You two start triaging, I’ll start laying these warriors out for you,” I say to Yara, then turn to Harold, waiting for him to finish contacting his omegas. “I would suggest that you let your pack know that what Yara says goes, otherwise she’s going to waste valuable time arguing with your warriors.”He makes the announcement, but I can see everyone looking at Yara warily.
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 46: Harold's Secret
YaraI have no idea how long I’ve been fixing broken bones, stitching up bleeding wounds, and generally putting the parts of these people back together. This pack truly was a mess, and I steel myself as I walk out of the last surgery room for the rest of what’s to come. I can feel the fatigue trying to push its way in, but I can’t allow that. Not yet. Not until this pack is at least back to a place where they can start to heal.“Yara,” Warren says, and just his voice soothes something deep inside me. He wraps his arms around me and I take a moment to just breath in his scent, drawing from the strength that I know he’s pushing into me.When I step back, he lets me go. “Where’s Savannah?” I ask him."She got everyone here stabilized so I sent her to get some sleep and get to know her mate,” he says, smirking.“So…no sleep then,” I say.“Probably not. Although, if he’s a good mate, he’ll recognize how exhausted she is and let her sleep.”“A good mate like you, you mean?” I say, smiling up
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 47: Henry
WarrenI didn’t know an Alpha could begin losing his wolf and still shift.‘Strong Alphas can, or ones who used to be strong. You would be able to if I started dying. I'd make sure of it. I'm sure his wolf is doing the same,’ Arric says.‘So, once Yara is done with him, he’ll be strong again?’ I ask him.‘Look how much stronger we are and not just because she healed us. We’re stronger because our pack is stronger. He will be too.’When Harold’s son walks in, he looks at us cautiously.“Henry, come here, son,” Harold says warmly.The young Alpha walks over to his father’s bedside, still watching me and Yara warily.“Henry, this is Alpha Warren. He and his Luna doctor, Yara, are helping to heal me and Luna Yara is the one that has been healing our pack members.”“We have Rebecca,” he says sharply, as if Yara and I are trying to secretly infiltrate his father’s pack.“Henry,” Harold says a bit sharply, “these two are basically saving our pack. Show some respect.”“It’s okay. I bet you’re
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 48: Unexpected Meeting
QuintonWe’d gone to Brady’s pack only to arrive after Harold had retreated back to his pack. We’d missed him by just a couple of hours.We’d had to wait to get through Brady’s booby traps. Harold and his warriors had set off some, but the biggest reason Brady doesn’t get attacked is because of those booby traps. The only reason I haven’t implemented them in my pack is because Brady sometimes loses one of his own pack members when they forget where they’ve left the traps. I’m not willing to lose my pack members and I don’t have the knowledge of how to set and reset them like Brady does.When we’d finally gotten inside his pack lands, I realized just how much his pack was injured.“How much of this is from Harold?” I ask him, looking around. These warriors are in no position to attack Warren’s pack with me.He’d looked around at his pack. “Some, but most of it is still from Warren’s pack.”I knew he was injured, knew he’d needed time to heal, but I hadn’t realized that Warren’s pack was
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 49: Yara's Protection
YaraI’m still so exhausted that I can barely open my eyes when there’s a knock at the door.“Excuse me, Alpha. Could I speak with you, please?” A voice that sounds vaguely familiar asks. Why didn’t they just mind link him?I feel warm lips press against my head. “Just a moment, Franklin,” Warren says, his voice raspy and sounding just as exhausted as I feel.Franklin? Who’s….Then it all comes rushing back to me. We must still be in Alpha Harold’s pack. I open my eyes and see that we’re in a room that is unfamiliar to me.I push myself out of bed, realizing that Warren must have put me in one of his shirts, and I make my way to the door. Just as I reach it, I hear Warren growl.“Warren?” I ask, opening the door.He turns, pulling me against him. “Simon and Quinton are here.”“I didn’t hear any howls of attack,” I say, wrapping my arms around him. The thought of Simon being close after what he did to Piper, makes me want to stay attached to Warren.“The patrols saw them talking, Luna. W
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 50: Charlie's Attack
CharlieAs soon as I got Alpha Warren’s call to attack, I did two things. I kissed Noelle and then I contacted Haynes. Noelle has been sleeping in my room since she arrived, which means, she’s barely slept here at all. I was thrilled to be able to lay down with her and curl up around her. I want her to get to know me and feel comfortable before we complete our bond. And now, I truly understand Warren’s frustration at waiting to mark his mate. I’m not sure how he can continue to wait. Gregor is going nuts, but we also know that Noelle is exhausted. She went through a lot in a very short amount of time.Now, I’m going to war and I don’t want to leave without kissing my mate goodbye. Properly.“What’s going on?” she asks me when I finish waking Haynes and telling him I need to speak with him.“Alpha Quinton and Alpha Simon are at Alpha Harold’s pack. Alpha Warren wants me to attack Quinton’s pack while he’s away.”“Will you be okay? What can I do?” she asks, worried. It feels really good
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 51: Two Alphas
YaraI’m worried about Warren. Harold’s pack isn’t as strong as his and he isn’t their Alpha. He won’t be connected to them during the battle like he is to our pack. Our pack…when did I start thinking of myself as his mate and Luna?When he rushes out of the hospital, I turn and focus my attention on what I need to do. “Savannah, we need triage and crash kits. Do you know if they have the supplies here to be able to put those together?”“I’ll find out,” she says.“What can I do?” Rebecca asks, rushing in.“Go with Savannah and help her find what she needs. Bradley, do we know how many warriors are outside the borders?” I ask him as I begin moving things around in the waiting room and grabbing gurneys to have them ready.“No, Luna.”“What do you want me to do?” Henry asks me.I look at him. I want to tell him to go sit with his father and basically hide, but I think about how Warren interacted with him. Henry is an Alpha, and I need to recognize and respect that, even if he is a pup.“S
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 52: Henry's Remorse
HaroldI come awake confused. I don’t immediately know where I am or why there is so much noise in my head. There’s a lot of pressure in my mind.‘Wake up, Harold. Our pup needs us.’‘Conrad? You’re awake?’‘Yes, but not very strong, although that lady doctor is making me stronger quickly, just like she said she would. You need to get up. Henry needs us.’‘Why? What’s happening?’‘The pack is being attacked by Alphas Simon and Quinton. Both Alphas are here in the hospital and our son is protecting Warren’s mate.’‘Yara? Why?’ I ask, trying to make my brain and my body work. I push myself up to a sitting position and wait until the room stops spinning.‘It was Alpha Warren’s way to keep him out of the battle, but I’m sure he didn’t know that two Alphas would come for his Luna.’I hear howling outside, the painful cry on a wolf losing their mate.‘What is that?’ I ask my wolf as I carefully put my feet onto the floor.‘I’m not sure. Those aren’t our pack members,’ he says. I carefully ta

The Pack's Doctor Chapter 70: Simon's Return
WarrenWaking up with Yara back in my arms and safe, is incredible. Waking up with my mate straddling me and sliding herself down my hard length is fucking fantastic.I’d spent hours reconnecting with Yara, mentally and physically last night, needing to feel the connection to her, needing to feel her. And now, apparently, my mate needs more. You won’t hear me arguing, especially when I get to watch her beautiful body bouncing on me, feel her body clenching around me as comes, hear her sweet sounds as she finds her pleasure, and then see those intense eyes when they focus on me. I knew this woman would be all passion when she finally let go and here she is.“More!” she growls, still hungry for me. Just me. The possessiveness in me is unlike anything I’ve ever felt. Yara has become the air that I breathe. She is everything that I need in this world and this world would be nothing without her.I flip our positions, putting her on her back and pulling both legs over my shoulders grinding
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 69: Unprotected
YasminThere was only one place for Quirin and I to go. Back to our pack. There’s no one there now, my son is the Alpha of nothing thanks to his greedy father, but that’s okay. We’ll find a way. I’ll find a way to bring my son back to the position he was born for. The only reason I accepted Quinton as my chosen mate was so that my son could be an Alpha. Quinton was fine as a mate, he never forced himself on me, but there was never any love there. It was always an understanding. I give him what he wants and he takes care of me for the rest of my life.I held up my end of the bargain, but he’s completely fallen short on his. He can’t take care of me if he’s dead. And now, I’m weak and I have to protect my young son.It takes us nearly a day to get back to the pack at the slow pace we have to go because my wolf is silent. I can only walk so far before I need to stop and rest. Quirin is quiet and since there’s nothing that I can say to make losing his father better, I stay quiet too.I bre
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 68: Marked
NoelleWhen Charlie left, going to find Alpha Warren, I’d realized something very important. If he didn’t return, I’d be devastated.I’ve watched him tirelessly run this pack while Alpha Warren has been gone. He’s strong, but fair, allowing Quinton’s pack members to remain here until Warren can decide if he’ll accept them into the pack. He’s a better Alpha than Thomas ever was, and he’s not even an Alpha.I haven’t had time to join the pack with everything going on, so I don’t have a mind link to make sure that my mate is safe. And he is my mate, he is everything I have ever wanted in a mate, and so much more. And now that I’ve made my decision to accept him, I want to make official right now.Of course, that’s not an option. The pack is in chaos, our Alpha and Luna are gone and now our Beta is gone. I may be the unofficial Beta female, but without a pack link, I’m useless to assist.The same is true for my sister. With Haynes acting as Alpha, she could help him if they were marked and
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 67: Home
YaraI wake with the smell of teakwood in my nose and the feeling of warm water surrounding my body. I jolt awake, unsure of what’s happening.“Shhh, we’re both filthy and you smell like Simon. I didn’t want to go to sleep like this, so we’re getting a bath. You can relax, I’ll take care of you,” Warren says. Just the sound of his voice soothes me.I snuggle closer to him, needing his touch and smell after having been with Simon.“Are you okay?” I ask him. I can feel the warring emotions inside of him.He squeezes water over my shoulder, letting it rinse off the smell of the cave that I have on me. That and the scent of Simon. I don’t even want to know why my body smells like him.“I should be asking you that. But, I’m better, now that you’re here and safe in my arms,” he says.I look up at him and when he looks at me, his teeth snap together and he looks away.“I’m sorry you have to see me like this,” I say softly, knowing my bruised face is a reminder to him of what he considers an i
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 66: Safe
WarrenI felt something deep inside me ease when I got Charlie’s mind link about Yara. I’m still about an hour away from Harold’s pack, but Arric pushes us hard to get there, leaving our warriors behind. Yara said she needed us. I don’t know what happened to her, what Simon may have done to her, and I don’t care right now. We’ll get through it. I’m just so thankful that she’s safe.When I get close to Harold’s pack, I howl that I’m coming in. Hopefully they know that I have no intention of waiting for the patrols to let me through. I need to see my mate and nothing will keep me from getting to her.As we catch her scent, Arric pushes even faster, following her scent, along with the scent of antiseptic, to the pack hospital. Arric rushes into the hospital and I shift without stopping. Everyone in the waiting room, including Alpha Harold just points and I rush to her room, slamming the door open.The first thing I see are her bruised, swollen cheeks. Simon will die slowly for touching wh
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 65: The Call
CharlieI haven’t gotten more than two hours of sleep since Luna Yara was taken and Alpha Warren left the pack. I’m beyond exhausted, but more than that, I can feel the tension in the pack, the anxiety about not knowing what’s going to happen to their Alpha and Luna. I have the same anxiety, but I’m the pack’s current leader, so I shove it aside.In the past, I would have also felt the pack’s desire to test me, to test the strength of the leader of this pack. It’s nice to know that Luna Yara’s influence has extended past her and Alpha Warren. She’s somehow made the pack feel whole, like it should. So now, anyone who would try to go against me, to test me, would break that bubble of security and I think the entire pack would turn on them. It feels good to have the pack's confidence in its leadership.My phone rings and it’s a number I don’t recognize.“Beta Charlie,” I answer.“Beta, this is Beta Franklin, Alpha Harold’s Beta.”“Yes, I know who you are. Is everything okay?”“Beta, we ha
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 64: The Gift
HaroldWhen Franklin returned after attacking Brady’s pack, he let me know that Brady survived, but his pack has been nearly decimated. I sent scouts to watch his pack and make sure that he doesn’t leave. I doubt he will, but now that our pack is getting stronger, I can afford to send a couple of warriors to keep watch.Savannah was beside herself wanting to go back to her old pack to help, especially after hearing that Yara had been kidnapped by Simon. I told her what Beta Charlie said and she’d become even more distraught.“Bradley was shot? Even I wouldn’t know how to save him. Poor Noelle,” he said. Franklin had taken her to their room and tried to console her. I’d waited a few hours and called Beta Charlie.“Alpha Harold?” he answered, sounding exhausted.“I’m sorry, Beta. Did I wake you?”“It’s okay, Alpha Warren isn’t back yet, so I’m still running the pack.”“I wanted to update you on Brady and find out what happened with Alpha Quinton.”“Quinton turned himself in, basically ga

YaraI come awake slowly. My body is stiff and my arms are aching, like I’ve somehow managed to get tangled up in them while I was sleeping and they’re stuck behind my back. I try to move them out from under me, but I can’t. My head feels fuzzy and it hurts. What’s going on?‘Wake up, Yara,’ Annika says urgently‘I’m trying, Annika. What’s going…’“There she is. Finally,” an angry voice says nearby. My eyes flash open. I recognize that voice. I don’t, however, recognize my surroundings.‘Annika, where are we?’‘I don’t know. He knocked me out too.’A hand grabs my hair, pulling me into a sitting position roughly. My arms are tied behind my back and my legs are wrapped up tightly. My body is stiff and sore. I must have been like this for a while.“You just had to go and fuck him, didn’t you?” Simon snarls in my face.He looks crazed. His hair is shooting out in all directions like he’s been tugging on it so long that it doesn’t bother trying to go back into place again. His eyes are fur
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 62: Trade
CharlieAfter checking on Noelle and leaving the hospital, I called Harold to tell him about Yara being taken and Brady running home. He told me he’d send Franklin and his warriors after Brady and asked if we needed Savannah.“Honestly, I don’t think she’ll make it on time. Yara’s guard was shot with silver. If Noelle can’t save him, he won’t live long enough for Savannah to get here,” I told him.‘Beta, we have Alpha Quinton and his warriors trapped in the cell block,’ Haynes says in the mind link.‘Hold them there, I’m on my way.’“Let me know if you need anything. Should we send a search party for your Luna?” Harold asks.“Alpha Warren is out hunting Simon down now. If we need help, I’ll let you know. Thank you, Alpha.”“It’s what allies do, Beta. I’m glad to know that we can help.”I hang up as I get to the cells, walking down the stairs and hearing the crying of the omegas, pups and other prisoners. I also hear the sound of their warrior mates trying to soothe them. The smell of f
