A Quick Reunion
Evander, Mason, and Audrey all stood there watching me interact with Godric. I tried to step away from him, but Godric held firm onto My hand.
He directed his attention to the group while still holding on to me. “It’s nice to see you again Evander.”
“Same to you Alpha Godric. I was surprised to receive your invitation in the mail. Seeing as though I am no Alpha, and my community or rogues are not recognized as an official pack.”
They both chuckled. “I guess we both know why I invited you here.” Godric admittedly spoke.
Evander nodded his head. “Well. You have laid eyes on her. You now know I stayed true to my word. She is not starving somewhere in a cage.”
“Yes, I see that. But I’m not the only person who wanted to see her.” Godric pointed to the left and my parents were running towards us.
“Zaya!” M

Late NightsMy emotions were everywhere. On one hand, my need to be with Godric was still strong. And on the other hand, I know we could never be together. But my heart couldn’t take seeing him with another.When we pulled up to the cabin, I exited the car alone. When the rest of the group exited, I heard Mason say, “We’re going to take a walk. It’s too nice of a night to waste inside.”He and Audrey made their way towards a wooded trail.I walked inside the house with Evander hot on my heels.He snatched my arm turning me to face him, just before I made it to my room. “I’m not going to ask you again. What is wrong with you?”I sulked for a moment before answering. Crossing my arms across my chest. “I’m just tired of not getting what I want in life.”“And what do you want?”“For once, I would like the person I like

No Loyalty***Day Sixty***It’s been two weeks since the All Saints Ball and so much has changed. Starting with Mia and Evander. Since their fight, she never returned to his house. And surprisingly, she kept her head down about it. I expected her to be a bit more like Sophie but she bowed out gracefully. Making me feel even worse about it.I knew they weren’t mates, but Mia had feelings for Evander. She must have, after opening herself up to him for so many days and nights.I wondered if she had feelings for him long ago when they left their pack. Mason was Evander’s second in command of the army. And also, his lifelong best friend. Naturally when he followed Evander out of the pack life, so did Mia. I always assumed it was from loyalty and love of her brother.Now I think I may have been wrong. Maybe it was because of her own love of Evander.“She doesn’t love him.&r

By Any Means***Sixty-Two Days Ago***Godric’s POVLast night my intuition became true. Zaya was in fact, my mate. From the moment I saw her I felt an attraction. And the longer she was with our pack, the more I started to care for her. But I still wasn’t sure that she was my mate until last night.I left the birthday party after giving her the ring. A specially made ring I had Miss Gillery make for Zaya. I lied and said it was a gift to honor her for the sacrifice she was making. But honestly, it was something I designed for her before she became the tribute.Watching her put it on and smile, was the first highlight of my night. But then she hugged me and I lost it. Her scent enveloped me, and I could not take it anymore. She smelled like lavender and vanilla. Every part of me wanted her.Then she started rambling on about Sophie and I had to walk away from her. The imag

Any Questions***Fourteen Days Ago***Godric’s POV“Alpha, everyone is here.” One of my guards said from the doorway of my office.I was waiting on word that all the Alphas had arrived for the All Saints Ball. I requested they join me a day early to discuss the progress of our plan.I walked into the dining hall where they assembled. The room was full of Alphas and Betas. All bowing to me. Sometimes I hated when they did that. I know it is our way to honor the Alpha King. But I feel that I haven’t truly earned that title. It was bestowed on me because my father was the King.But what did I really do to earn that position besides being firstborn?“Please everyone, rise so we can get to business.” They all raised from bowing and took their seats. “Alpha Titus, where are we with those bullets?”An older gentleman stood to addres

The Night Of***Present Day***Zaya POVA pounding at the front door stopped Evander from taking one more stroke. “Attack! Commander. We are being attacked!The pounding became louder and more frequent. I couldn’t believe my ears.Our bodies already began to untangle. The heated passion between us quickly cooled as the banging continued. “Did they just say we’re being attacked?” I asked pulling the sheet over my naked body.“Get up and get dressed.” Evander was already on his feet and putting on pants. His movements were fast.I ran to my room and threw on a shirt, pants, and tennis shoes. By the time I was coming out of my room, Evander was already at the bottom of the stairs.“Stay here and hide.” I heard him shout. He opened the door and several soldiers were awaiting his orders. If he waited any longe

True Friends***Zaya POV***Just as instructed, Audrey and I packed up our belongings. On the way to the car, I could see all of Evander’s pack members lying on the ground. Godric was true to his word. Not one wolf had been killed. Every life that night was spared. It was the cleanest battle known to man or wolf.We left Evander in his house. The only rogue wolf not to be put down. He was left awake to make sure those who woke did not rush to retaliate. I couldn’t look at him. My last image of Evander was him drowning in a glass full of alcohol.It was amazing how less than an hour ago, this man was strong and tall. Now he seemed small and weak. I kept thinking back to the moment we shared before the attack started. It was amazing and yet, I felt ashamed and wrong.The ride back to the Blood Moon pack was sort of a blur. It was like the day I left, only in reverse.We stopped at a hote

The Alphas Room***Zaya POV***We arrived in the Blood Moon pack lands the next morning. Audrey still wasn’t saying much in front of the guys. I could tell more was on her mind but she wasn’t ready to say. I figured she would tell me when the time was right.When we pulled up to the house, Anna was waiting to greet me. But her happy eyes soon turned to concern when she saw Audrey. But she didn’t let that stop her from hugging me. She quickly put two and two together and welcomed Audrey with a hug.“Welcome back Audrey.” She said recalling her name from the night of the Ball.“Thank you,” Audrey spoke in an awkward tone. She wasn’t a hugger. Especially with people, she didn’t know.Luna Ariel was also there waiting to greet me along with a few Elders. Although, I believe the Elders were there to see the outcome of the battle.“My ch

All MineZaya POVAfter Anna finished showing us our new sleeping arrangements, I decided to show Audrey around. I thought maybe I would take her to the market for shopping. Audrey wanted to freshen up and said she would meet me downstairs in about five minutes. Anna had gone ahead of us since she had errands to run for Luna Ariel.I was surprised to not see many people around the house as I came down. I could hear Godric and Alex talking in the office when I left the bedroom. Other than the two guards outside the office, there weren’t any other wolves around. As I stood in the foyer waiting for Audrey, a small whimper grabbed my attention. It was coming from a side hallway. One that held various secluded rooms like a small library, a wine cellar, and a pool room.I walked down the hall to find the source of the cries. Checking the library first and then the pool room. But I found nothing. I kept wa
