I had hoped that getting Emerson to open up a little would help him to see that I’m ready to be his partner, not just when it comes to supporting him as an Alpha, not just as his Guardian, but also as his mate. Everything had been fine and then it hadn’t.I sigh. He said he was leaving so I could talk to Malin, but I already talked to Malin and I’m not going to interrupt her acting Luna ceremony with my problems. I wanted a challenge and I guess I’m getting one. It’s just…Cohen seems to want Malin, Rich always wanted Emlyn except when he was under a spell, my brother Xander always wanted Maeve, Clint seems to adore Riley.... so what’s wrong with me?‘Nothing’s wrong with you. You’re perfect,’ Minka says to me, but I can hear her sadness at Emerson’s hasty retreat tonight too.I get ready for bed, thinking about the conversation.‘Do you think he felt vulnerable after talking to us? I mean, we know it’s hard for Alpha males to feel vulnerable, even with their mates,’ I ask Minka.‘Dad i

I think about Quinn's lonliness as I walk to Emerson’s office. Cara and Rik have families the same size as mine and Eli's, three children each. However, Angel and Liam have seven with the twins being second to last in the family, meaning they’ve been raised with a large family, adding in mates, now adding in baby Leander. However, here, Quinn has only Emerson and I’m not sure that my reserved son is doing enough to keep his new mate happy.When I arrive, Emerson has a chair pulled up beside his and I see that I’m being included on a video conference with the other Alphas and my Guardian sisters. After saying hello, we talk about the council and Alpha Wyatt, trying to figure out who and when they will attack.There’s a soft knock at the door and Quinn walks in carrying a tray of food. I jump up to help her as Emerson is speaking.“Is everything okay?” she whispers to me.“Yes, just trying to figure out who Alpha Wyatt is working with.”“Okay,” she says, looking over at Emerson. My son l

My days and nights begin to develop a pattern. In the morning, I take Emerson’s warrior training. After breakfast, I run safe room drills with the omegas. That continues until just before four o’clock when I run warrior training. Emerson joins my warrior training in the afternoon and like me in the morning, he participates and spars with his pack members. Each day, we spar with someone new so that several pack members get to push themselves to get stronger. Uncle Eli and Aunt Grace also join both warrior sessions, so the pack warriors are getting stronger and faster.After my warrior training, Emerson and I run the borders, letting Minka and Clovis run and play together, but also checking to make sure that we don’t smell any unusual scents in the area. We always run the borders twice, and by the end, Clovis and Minka are playing more than monitoring the borders. Unlike Emerson, Clovis has no problem showing Minka affection, always rubbing himself against her, scenting her, and giving h

Everything about Quinn has my body responding to her and my mind shutting down. I nearly blew my load when she smiled that gorgeous fucking smile at me. I had to look away and I asked her what she and Malin talked about. And because I was trying to get my own body under control, I nearly missed her sweet blush. That makes me wonder what she’s keeping from me.‘Why would she tell you anything? You never tell her how you truly feel?’ Clovis grumbles in my head.‘I told her I’m thrilled they are our mates,’ I say to my grouchy wolf.“Oh, big deal. I’m thrilled our omegas made steaks last night for dinner too. It’s not the same thing as telling her you love her, and you know it. You should tell her how much she means to you, how much you want her and even if you don’t do anything about it because you’re an idiot, you could at least let her know that your body, our body, responds to her all the fucking time.’‘And that might just scare her off, Clovis. Did you think about that?’ I ask him.

I’m not even sure what to think about what happened last night. I’d finally seen the man behind the armor, and wow, what a man. Under that passive exterior, there is one very passionate man, and I was thrilled, truly thrilled to find out that my mate is so ardent. All the way up until he ran from me, apologizing as if he hadn’t just given me everything I’ve been hoping for. Well, not everything, I had a serious ache between my thighs when he raced out of the room. And he’d left me wanting more, much, much more.Of course, then I’d felt embarrassed, humiliated that I’d done something wrong or worse, that I was right and he just doesn’t want me that way. He only wants me as his Guardian.I’d gone back to my room and showered off Emerson’s release. I’m not sure how he’ll feel about my scent being coated with his. If his hasty retreat is any indication, he won’t be happy about it, but I can’t do anything about that.I’m not sure how long I’d been asleep when I was awakened by scratching at

I desperately wanted to talk to Quinn this morning. After running off and listening to my wolf berate me for hours, I knew I had to come clean. I had to tell her that I have absolutely no control over my body when I'm with her. If that's what she wants from me, then so be it. My need to talk to her was only reinforced when she avoided me this morning and I saw the regret in her eyes. Clovis is right, she thinks I rejected her. She couldn't be farther from the truth.But before I can even begin to tell her how sorry I am for my massive freak out last night, we get the call that the war has started. My mate, my strong, fearless mate, doesn’t hesitate. She leaps and is running to the battle, willing to take on the entire field of warriors on her own. But I won’t let that happen. Clovis is shifting and racing to keep up with our speedy mate a moment before I begin sending out orders.‘Emerson, do you think it’s a good idea for me to stay here?’ my father questions me.‘Yes. Don’t argue,’ I

I come awake slowly, feeling the pain in my side.‘Minka?’‘I’m healing us. Now that the bullet is out, I’m healing, but the bones will take some time.’‘How many bones broken?’ I ask her.‘Two ribs, multiple fractures in them. They cracked every time we took a hit, but we’re okay. I just struggled to heal us around the bullet and try to keep our ribs from puncturing our lungs.’‘You’re amazing, Minka!’‘You’re pretty amazing too, Quinn.’I open my eyes and I’m disappointed to see Aunt Grace and Riley, but not Emerson.“Hey! There she is!” Riley says, coming over.“How do you feel?” Aunt Grace asks me.“Sore, but Minka says she’s healing us. She said they got the bullet out?”“Yep. The doc said Minka was healing their incisions faster than they could stitch you up,” Riley says.“It’s good to be a Guardian,” I say, sitting up gingerly as pain shoots up my side. “What happened at Shadow Falls? Is everyone ok?” I ask, suddenly remembering my family.“Yes. Emlyn apparently did some incredi

“I think I should lead the ceremony, Emerson. I was the Alpha for many years. These are my people too,” my father says.“Yes, they were your pack, but I’m the Alpha now. They need to hear from me,” I say. I’m already stressed because of Quinn’s injury. She’s healed and she’s here, but the thought of losing her had me feeling out of control again. Now, I’m trying to keep myself together to bury the dead in our pack and rather than supporting me, my father is here still trying to insert himself as Alpha.“This isn’t the time for pride, son. This is the time to do what’s best for the pack,” he says.I’m about to respond when Quinn steps in. “What do you think is best for the pack, Uncle Eli?”“They need to know that their leaders support them, that their Alphas support them and are here for them,” he says.Once again, I’m about to say something, something I would probably regret, but my mate inserts herself. I’m not sure if this is a mate thing, a Guardian thing, or a Quinn thing, but I h

Nineteen Years Later“Mom, why do we have to go to this Beta ceremony?” Genevieve, my daughter, one of the twins, asks.“It’s not a Beta ceremony, Gen. The vampires don’t have Betas, you know that,” I tell her.“They’re second in command, mother, that makes them Betas,” she argues.“And besides going to see your cousins take their place as the mates of Urien’s second in command, it will be a good opportunity for you to look for your mates.”Malin’s daughters, Kayleigh and Sasha, found their mate, Lorenzo, the son of Ennata and Demetrius. Demetrius had been Drake’s second in command until he decided to retire with Ennata and move to the city to help Xander and Maeve with the witches. Now Lorenzo is taking over as Drake’s second in command.“Mate or mates?” Marcella, the other twin asks.Unlike me and Malin, both of our twin daughters are identical twins. It caused a lot of worry for me and Malin while they were growing up, wondering what would happen if our daughters were mated to one p
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 34: Emerson
Watching my mate on her birthday had been one of the best feelings in the world. I know every man in all three packs had hoped that she would be their mate. But she isn’t. She’s mine. All mine, forever. And tonight, I get to claim her in the last possible way, officially making her my Luna.Last night, we’d watched as Malin had taken her official place as Luna of the Canyon Ridge pack. It was special for Quinn, but I’ll admit to feeling jealousy when Cohen announced to everyone that Malin was carrying his pup. After finding out at Quinn’s birthday party that my sister, Emlyn, Quinn’s sister, Leana, and her sister-in-law Maeve were all pregnant, and now hearing that her twin is pregnant, I suddenly realize that I want a pup too.I’ve never given much thought to how many pups I want. I need an heir, and of course, I’d like to have a little girl that has Quinn’s sweet personality, but otherwise, I hadn’t thought much about it. Until now. Now I know that I want pups with Quinn. I don’t eve
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 33: Quinn
I’m exhausted and pleasantly sore between my thighs, but I don’t care. I’m wearing my mate’s mark, wearing my new necklace, and it’s my birthday. Emerson skipped warrior training this morning to spend extra time with me. We’d finally fallen asleep and I’d slept soundly for a couple of hours laying on top of his body.I feel his fingers softly rubbing over my back.I grumble, knowing he’s trying to gently wake me up.“I don’t want to get up either, birthday girl, but we have a party to get to,” he says.I snuggle against him, not budging. He chuckles. “If you don’t get up, I’m going to take you again.”“Is that supposed to be a deterrent?” I ask him.“You must be sore, Quinn.”“Not that sore,” I say, looking up at him.His eyes darken. “Damn, you are one sexy woman, Quinn. And you look fucking incredible wearing my mark. You know what?” he asks, sitting up and lifting me as he gets off the bed and walks into the bathroom carrying me.“What?” I ask.“I want to take my mate while I look a
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 32: Quinn
Emerson and I have been together every night for the past month. He’s tried every possible position, explored every inch of my body and found places that even I didn’t know I liked being touched. But tonight feels different. I can feel it in the air around us, feel it in him, and feel it in our wolves.“What does my sweet mate want for her birthday?” Emerson asks me.“You. Just you,” I say and he leans down, kissing me slowly and deeply, as I wrap my legs around his body.“Just me, not my mark?” he asks, his warm breath blowing against my ear and moving to my neck, making me shiver.“Having you means I get to wear your mark and I ge to put mine on you as well.”He growls as I lift my chin, exposing my throat to him. I feel his canines graze over my mate mark, the feeling of it so much more intense now that it’s my birthday.“Not yet,” he says, before flipping us over. “I thought my little Guardian might want to be in control on her birthday, to ride me any way she wants before sinking
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 31: Emerson
The day has finally arrived, the day when I can leave my mark on my mate and it will finally, finally stay. I’ve been looking forward to this day for years, literally years, since the first moment that I recognized Quinn as my mate.Even though I know I can’t leave my mark until midnight tonight, I still wake my mate by sliding inside her. I look forward to my evenings with Quinn and waking up with Quinn. I make a point to see my mate throughout the day. Then nights and mornings are when it’s just us and I can be me and she seems to thrive on me being me. I was so terrified for so long that I would hurt her, that I’d scare her off, that it never really occurred to me to trust that the Moon Goddess would give me the exact mate that I needed to fulfill every dream and fantasy that I’ve ever had. But here she is, in my arms, screaming my name. Fuck, I love waking up to her body contracting around mine and my name coming from her mouth.Even though I’m behind her and we’re both laying on o

I love being in Emerson’s room. Well, it’s ours now. Going to bed at night is so much more enjoyable. And everything about Emerson has begun to fall into place. During the day, he still shows me affection, more than he used to, but it’s at night that he strips away his reserved side and gives me everything that he is. And what a man he is.Our first night, he was careful with me, in the sense that we didn’t have sex. But that didn’t mean that I didn’t have one of the most intense nights of my life, at least up until that point. I know my mate wants control, and I’m happy to give it, as long as he gives me what I want. Just to be sure, I ordered some sexy lingerie, wearing it every night, just so Emerson can rip it off me. It seems to be all he needs to let go. And oh wow, I’m not even sure I realized how many ways my mate could take me, but Emerson wasn’t kidding when he said he wanted to know all the ways he could make me come by my birthday. It’s like he’s on a mission and every nigh
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 29: Emerson
I let her sleep about an hour before I wake her. We need to get ready to have breakfast with her sister and Cohen before we head back to our pack. I pull her into the shower with me, laughing at her sleepy grumpiness.“None of that or I won’t wake you up like that again,” I say to her.“I need coffee,” she pouts as I push her under the shower. “And how come you’re not exhausted?”“I didn’t have as many orgasms as you did,” I say smiling, exceedingly pleased with myself. I counted ten. I made my mate come ten times. Now, I need to see how I can increase that number.“You know, you called me greedy, but you’re awfully greedy when it comes to giving me orgasms,” she says as I wash her hair.“Are you complaining?” I ask, smiling at her.“Nope. I like that greedy side of you,” she says and I laugh, truly laugh.“And, I love seeing this happy side of you,” she says softly and I look down at her.“You did this. You make me this happy,” I say, kissing her nose.That seems to make HER happy and
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 28: Emerson
I wake for the first time with my mate in my arms. I’m not sure I’ve ever slept through the night. It’s not that I don’t sleep, but I tend to toss and turn. I can tell that I didn’t move all night, my body, mind, and soul all at peace having this fascinating and incredible woman beside me.I look down at her, her white, blond hair spread out across my chest, a stark contrast to my dark skin tone. I’m not sure I expected her to give herself to me so completely. I kept Clint’s words of advice in my head, and he wasn’t wrong. Quinn giving me control over her perfect body, letting me taste her and fill her had been beyond anything I’d ever experienced, well, at least until I’d had my first orgasm inside her. I thought I’d died and gone to the Moon Goddess’ realm. Yeah, I know I’m going to want to taste and fill this woman every damn day. I can already tell that I’ll never, ever be able to get enough of her. And now, I’m excited to find all the ways I can dominate this body and to see what
The Stoic Alpha Chapter 27: Quinn
There is something extremely attractive about Emerson being so dominant. I can tell he’s on the verge of losing control and the only thing keeping him in check is dominating my body. And oh, holy mother Moon Goddess, is he dominating my body.I’ve touched myself, found my own release many times in my life, but this…this is way beyond anything that I’ve ever made myself feel. And he hasn’t even moved past my breasts. I didn’t know it was possible to come just from your mate sucking your nipples, but I’m here to tell you, it is possible. At least if you have Emerson licking and sucking on them like they are the most incredible thing he’s ever put in his mouth.His hands are everywhere, his mouth is everywhere, and while I want to be a participant in this, our first of what I hope is many matings, he’s overwhelming my senses. On top of that, he seems to want and need control and I’m willingly giving it to him.When he commands me to say his name when I orgasm again, I feel heat flooding m
