ZaydenWhen I woke up in the hospital, I was so disoriented. I didn’t know what happened. I didn’t know where I was or how I got there. I didn’t recognize my pack members that worked there. It took them two hours plus a whole bunch of different herb mixtures to help me get my wits back. As soon as I came to all I wanted was Everleigh. I remember what happened and I wanted to make sure she was ok. We needed to figure out what was going on.It didn’t take long for Evan and Everleigh to get to the hospital once I was back. I seen Evan walk in first. He came straight to my bedside. I didn’t even notice Everleigh at first but when I did, I felt annoyed. Why was she just standing by the door way? Why won’t she come closer? She must know that I’m not mad at her. I tell her to come here and she slowly walks over to me. When she grabs my hand, I pull her towards me and pull her on to my lap. We sat there and talked for awhile before she fell asleep on me. With her in my arms I fell in to a pea
Everleigh I heard when Zayden came in to the bathroom but I decided to act like I didn’t know he was there. I could feel his gaze on me so I turned around my head to look at him. I felt a smirk wanting to play on my lips. “Like what you see, Alpha?” I asked him. I see him opening and closing his mouth fish but no words came out so he just nodded his head. I caught him adjusting himself. Seeing the outline of his dick through his pants made my mouth start watering. I turned all the way around to tease him. Let him see every inch of me. Nyx was egging me on in my head. Over the last few weeks, I’ve been thinking more and more of giving myself to him. Letting us mate and mark each other. He makes me feel safe and loved for the first time in many years. I see his eyes roaming all over my body. I notice his hand twitch like he is wanting to move. I get a glance of his eyes and they are changing between the beautiful purple of his and the bright blue of his wolf. “Looks like wolfy want
Everleigh Last night was the most amazing night. I never knew that something like that could make someone so happy and content. I’m laying here cuddled up to Zayden’s side with my eyes closed replaying the memories of last night. I started feeling a light touch on my back before moving to my side. Even the slightest touch from him sends tingles down to my core. The arm I have draped over his stomach I use to pull him closer to me. I hear him chuckle. “Good morning baby girl.” He whispers in to my hair before placing a kiss there. “Good morning my handsome mate.” I whisper back placing a kiss on his chest. I look up at him and grin. He looks down at me and smiles before pulling me up in the bed so we are eye to eye. He cups my cheek and slowly brushes his lips against mine. I moan. I love the feel of his soft plump lips on mine. I press forward and put more pressure and heat into the kiss. I feel his hand move from my cheek to the back of my head. His over hand snakes its way around
Everleigh Bright light invades my closed eyelids. I yawn and stretch before slowly opening my eyes. I look to the side table on the right side of the bed and see that it is eleven-thirty in the morning. I groan before throwing the blanket off of me. I climb off the bed and head to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I don’t know for sure how long Zayden’s training is going to last but while I got some time to myself, I’m going to do some training of my own. I take a short shower and throw on a tank top and shorts when I’m done. I run a brush through my hair then pull it up into a loose bun. I brush my teeth then head back in to the room to get my tennis shoes on. I walk out of the packhouse and head towards the trail head that heads in the woods. I haven’t been this way yet but hopefully if I stay on the trail, I’ll find a good spot to practice. I walk for awhile before I feel Nyx pace in my head. ‘What’s wrong Nyx?’ I asked her. ‘I don’t know. Take 20 more steps and go towards
Everleigh“I’m going to remove my hand from your mouth. Don’t scream.” The stranger said.I nod my head in understanding and he removed his hand before turning me around. I let out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding. It was Grey.“How did you find me?”“You’re not the only special one.” He said with a wink. “Just don’t tell anyone. No one knows but me. And I guess you now.”I let out a sigh. “I guess you are taking me back?” I scoffed.“Nope.” He said popping the p. “Follow me. We need to talk.”He turned around and started walking off in the opposite direction.‘Can we trust him?’ I asked Nyx.‘Yes. His wolf said there are things we need to know but he hasn’t been able to talk to us alone.’I had to jog to catch up with him. “Keep your scent blocked.” He stated before stopping. “Go behind a tree and change. We need to run and run fast. They will be back this way soon.”I hurried behind a tree, stripped off my clothes and changed in to Nyx. I grabbed my clothes in my mouth and wa
Zayden I have no idea what happened. I was in my office doing paper work when Desi knocked wanting to talk. Next thing I know is she was kneeling in front of me unzipping my pants and has my dick in her mouth. I kept telling myself I needed to stop her but I couldn’t. I don’t know what came over me but I just couldn’t stop. When I was about to come the door opened revealing Grey and Everleigh. The wind got knocked out of me and I came back to my senses, but it was too late. The look on Everleigh’s face I will never be able to unsee. Shock, denial, hurt and betrayal are the emotions I seen on her face. Once she turned around and left, I turned my attention to Grey. He was beyond made. If looks could kill I would be six feet under plus some. He slammed my office when he left. I push Desi off of me before jumping up and putting my dick back in my pants. “What in the fuck just happened Desi?” I screamed at her. “I have a fucking mate. I have no idea what came over me but it won’t fuckin
EverleighIt’s been two weeks since that incident happened. I haven’t had anymore pains since then. I know Grey explained everything to me but now, I don’t know if I want to be Zayden’s mate anymore. Since he is an Alpha there will always be woman coming after him. I know with my powers I can defeat them but I’m not going to battle with dark magic like that. Dark magic comes at a heavy price for the user, let alone the person they are using it against.I have been studying the different creatures out there. Most of them are extinct but it’s still good knowledge to know about them. I’ve learned that there are a lot of different fairies or faes. Ones for each element. It’s not very often you come across ones that have control over all of them. I’m lucky enough to be one of them. Yay me. Not. It comes with a lot of responsibility to control them all. If you can’t master them, they will take you over and make you combust.I have been practicing late at night when everyone is sleeping. I w
GreyAfter Everleigh left me in the forest, I went back to the pack house. I was so wrapped up in my thoughts I didn’t realize someone was trying to get my attention. The feeling of someone putting their hand on my arm brought me back to reality.“Delta, the Alpha is requesting your presence in his office. He has been asking for you for about two hours now.” The omega told me before wondering off back to her duties.I head to the Alpha’s office trying to get my bearings together. How can I feel the mate bond effects without being a mate? That just doesn’t make since. The Moon Goddess must be playing a joke on me or something. There is no possible way. I wish I could see my own future so I could figure out what is going on. As I reach the door to the Alpha office, I stand in front of it trying to get my thinking under control before knocking.After a few minutes I knock and hear Zayden tell me to come in.“Good evening, Alpha.”“Grey, where have you been? I have been trying to reach yo
“Let’s go find her and let Aunt Sophia have some much-needed alone time.” I say standing up. Walker walks over and shuts the Tv off before walking around and picking up their plates and cups, toys and miscellaneous things they have placed everywhere.“Thank you Sophia. I really appreciate you.” I say turning towards her.“No problem Everleigh. You know I love that little boy like he was my own and Felix is getting there too. They are the best little boys anyone could have the pleasure of watching.” I smile knowing that having them around means the world to her.After the boys pick up their things we head out the door after giving hugs and saying bye. We walk down the hallway towards our room when I see Desi coming out of her room.“I was just going to look for you boys.” She says smiling down at them.“We were on our way to you mom.” Felix says with a yawn.“Uh oh, I thi
“Feels like it’s been years since I’ve seen you Everleigh.” She whispers letting go of me.“I’m sorry Soph. I didn’t expect all this to happen and mess up our vacation.” I tell her looking at the floor. “I’m not the Luna but this still feels like my pack and I have to do something.” I say slowly looking up at her.“I understand babe. I promise I do. I don’t mind. I love watching the boys and Rylan. They are so good with her. Plus, her dad isn’t bad to look at either.” Sophia says winking at me causing me to chuckle.“I need to talk to Walker though. There is something I need to see if he can do.” I say turning to look at the boys giggling at the moving they are watching. “I don’t want to put it on him but he is the only one I know that can dream walk. I really need to talk to one of the guys.”“I watched him do it with Aria and Jaz
I hear the buzz of voices in the background as I walk around the office not knowing what I’m doing and doubting myself. How do the guys do this day in and day out? I mean yeah they grew up learning this stuff but how does the stress not eat them alive? I feel like I’m failing everyone. The scouts got hurt because I sent them out. The guys are missing because some asshole is after me. They don’t even know they have a son because I couldn’t bring myself to come back and tell them. I couldn’t bring myself to come back and see them happy with someone else. Even if they didn’t I couldn’t bring myself to come back and be hurt again by all the memories.Over the years I have learned that it wasn’t all on them but the hurt in my heart couldn’t keep me here. It would be never ending while someone was plotting against my mates and me. I don’t know what this Orphee person is after or why but I know it’s bad. I know they w
“She will be here in a jiffy.” Dawn says coming out of the mind-link. “Good thinking Everleigh. We honestly don’t think of things like that. We have been around nothing but good witches and Fae over the last five years that we don’t stop and think.” She says apologetically.“That doesn’t make since. After everything that has happened you all really put your trust in witches not to be dark still?” I scoffed.“It’s not like that Everleigh. We have had rogue attacks still but the witches have left us alone. Because of Vor and Wendy we don’t have any issues with them thankfully. They have done such an amazing job with their warding around the pack lands we haven’t had to worry about dark ones coming in. Anyone with magical ill intentions is not allowed to cross over to the main part of the pack lands.” Evan explains.“But others who have ill intentions can still come and go?&rd
EverleighIt’s been three days since we sent the scouts out. Three days since we heard anything. Dev says this is how it is sometimes when they are on a mission. It’s an eight-hour drive to that pack. They could have flown but that is too easy to trace and they would have known as soon as it landed. Since it was late at night when they left they would have gotten there around three in the morning. We have not seen Zayden’s mom Eve the last few days which is worrying me a little. I don’t know why but I have a feeling she is behind a lot of this.We went and visited Liam. There is still no way of knowing when he will wake up. His wolf is still out. Bailey sits by him every day all day long. I had a hard time convincing her to go shower last night. I told her I was going to sit by him until she returned to make sure someone was here with him. He reluctantly agreed to it. I talked to the doctor about putting him up in the Alp
“You and your mates are still linked. It is very weak but it is still there. When you are close all powers will be restored and strengthened.” Vor said shaking her head to clear it. She clears her throat before focusing on everyone else. “Yes, anyways, I have a few pendants that I will give the warriors to wear. You must not take them off until you get back here. It will cover your scents, tracks and there is a barrier spell put in them so no one will see you easily. If they are close enough they still can but it will distort your figure and camouflage you from a distance.”“Wow that’s more than what I was going see if you could do.” Everleigh said with a chuckle. That chuckle sent my heart in to overdrive. I have missed my mate so much. “I will go get those then these men can head off. The sooner they go the sooner we can get the kids back.” Vor said grabbing Wendy&rsqu
I open my eyes and blink back the brightness. What in the hell? I look around and notice I am in my office. But I am not alone. I see Dev, Evan, Dawn, a few other warriors and Desi. What the hell is Desi doing in my office?! I thought outraged. She should be in the cells! Why did they let her out?Before I could move the door to my office opened and in walked the last person I thought I would ever see. My breath caught in my throat at the beautiful sight before me. My beautiful mate. Everleigh. Her name came out breathlessly from my lips. I watch as she halts for a second before she shakes her head and shuts the door behind her. “I found out about the kids. We need to send a scout to look in to it.” She says walking over to the others who are huddled around my meeting table looking at something. I slowly walk over and look over her shoulder as she bends over looking at something. I feel a slight shiver move over her body but what catc
When I get out of here I’m killing this motherfucker with my own bare hands. Or maybe I will take him back to the pack and torture him before killing him. Grey can help me with it. These fuckers deserve it. They wouldn’t stand a chance against any of us if they didn’t drug us to begin with. I’m just hoping we all get out of here alive.The rough jerk of my shirt and almost falling brought me out of my thoughts.“Come. We don’t have all day.” The jerk said in a snarl. “If it wasn’t for them wanting you I would have killed you already Zayden.” He spits out.“You only had to drug me because you couldn’t take me on when I was at full strength. Just wait asshole. You will get what’s coming to you.” I tell him through clinched teeth.The asshole laughs before spinning me around and punching me hard in the face. I feel my cheek throb. I think the prick broke my cheekbone. Damn it. Without Rye I’m going to be fucking hurting from all this shit worse than I already am.“You hit like a human.”
ZaydenWe still don’t know where we are or how long we have been here. The days are running together. It doesn’t help they are constantly knocking us out with some concoction. The cells we are in have no windows and we can’t tell if it’s night or day. Once in a while someone will come in and unchain one of us and drag us off to another windowless room to do experiments on us. They never told us what these experiments are for but we know they are back. We are getting weaker by the minute. I haven’t been able to feel Rye since we got here and they first injected us.Grey is in worse shape than I am and one of Starks warriors passed with the last set of experiments. Thankfully with his wolf dormant for now and the link to his pack weakened, he wasn’t able to feel this warriors link break in full force. He said it reminded him of kind of like a rubber band snapping. I’m hoping Grey can make it out of here. If something happens to him before we make it out I might just give up myself. We ma
