Alley POV: It felt like someone punched me straight in the gut and knocked the wind out of me, when I recovered anger filled my veins "He is MINE!" I roared, feeling heat rise from my core. I knew my eyes were bright red. I heard gasps behind me but I didn't care, not a single shred. My eyes locked on Stella who looked terrified of me sensing how angry I am. "What else do you know?!" I shouted. Stephen wrapped his arms around me whispering in my ear, "Alley you have to calm down no one is going to touch Danny." My body was shaking and tense but I never took my eyes off of Stella. Her almond eyes were wide as saucers. "I, uh-.." She stammered on her words which didn't do a damn thing to calm me. "What the fuck does she want with him?" I sneered, slowly losing my battle with Rose. "Take a deep breath princess, breathe for me." Stephen kept saying in my ear, I could tell he was worried Rose would come out and that would be one giant ass shit show. "When Danny is gifted her power wil
Alley POV: The front door opened and my parents walked in, both their bodies were pushed apart due to Danny running full speed at me and Stephen. I held my arms open and he ran straight in to them, "Hi Luna! They picked me up early today! Can we play? I am hungry though.." Danny was talking faster than ever until he saw Athea staring at him with a wide smile. His little face scrunched together like he was thinking. "You were in my dreams.." Danny stated looking up to her. "I was Danny do you remember what I told you?" Athea asked him, tilting her head to the side. "I do! You said I would be able to see the future and be big and strong." Danny said lifting his little arms and curling them trying to show off his little muscles. A giggled escaped my lips, he was so adorable, not even realizing who Athea is. He had the purest innocence. Athea chuckled before she kneeled down in front of him. "You will be able to see the future but you can't tell anyone what you see, it could get someone
Stephens POV: I've never seen Alley get so mad so quickly before, I swear I thought she would burst into flames the moment Stella said what she did. The protective side of Alley was something I'd always loved about her, but the thing that stunned me the most is that the moon goddess herself showed up. Who would have thought her real name is Athea, there's a lot of information we gained. One Atsila wasn't lying to us and I feel like a complete dick, second Danny is the true Seer. She visited him in his dreams but she also assured us that Bethany would have no clue that he was gifted which gives us the upper hand. Now we just need to figure out our plan of attack because I know Alley won't want to wait around for them to attack us, we've already sent trackers out to hunt down Bethany. I know Alley wants her dead rightfully so, and I won't feel bad for her. Not even in the slightest. It seems like the other Alphas are a little more at ease with what will happen, Collin usually bucks
Stephen POV: I knew they would fire off questions about what we had in mind, we would just have to get them to understand and see why we want to. "The dark witch leader is a real bitch from what I hear. She has something to gain from this so I don't know about her, as far as the vampire queen we can speak with her." Jasmine said, looking around at the other women. "We will go with y'all though and no we aren't going to argue about it. So save the glares Collin" Chloe quipped locking her eyes on Collin. It's funny that everyone knows what Collins' reaction will be. "As much as I hate it I won't argue, vampires are tough to beat but not impossible, we've done it before but with y'alls abilities it would be a lot faster to accomplish." Collin said. "We trust whatever y'all decide, just know we will be beside y'all and don't expect any arguments." Alley said sternly. "I'd like to keep my balls attached to me." Devin muttered. I coughed to hide my laughter, the fact that he was worried E
Alleys POV: Sitting around the table while everyone was chatting, my mind wondered back to what the guys wanted to do. I knew the vampire queen couldn't hold any more power than what she did. I've never seen her but I've heard rumors about her and let's just say she doesn't hesitate to kill anyone who crosses her. She is extremely powerful. The king of rogues has a gruesome past. It's said that long ago he tried to fight the alpha of his old pack and when he lost he was cast out like he meant nothing. No one knew why he did it, everything was kept tight lipped. Then he disappeared without a trace and rogues started to get out of control, they did whatever they wanted no matter the cost. Rumor has it he met his mate and left with her, if that was the truth then maybe he wasn't a bad person after all. The leader of the dark witches is a damn nightmare. She gives zero fucks about anything and she's always looking for a new type of power so she has a lot of gain from all of this. I wo
Alley POV: When I would pull it straight from me the warmth started in my chest, this was like a spurt of it with no beginning place. I opened my eyes and moved my hands to see that her cut was now healed. "How do you feel?" She asked me. "Actually I feel fine, a little tired but that might be from earlier." I replied back to her with a smile. "You will notice the difference soon, now let's try teleporting." She said with a wide smile. "Remember to picture where you want to be and make yourself go there." She said, All the others caught on to it quickly and looked like they were having a blast. A wide grin came across my face when I realized what I wanted to do. "I know a grin like that, what are you about to do?" Charlotte asked. "I think I'm going to pop in on the boys for a surprise visit." I said giggling. "Why didn't I think of that!" Stefanie whined. "Well we could all do it because I want to see their reaction." Chloe snickered. I closed my eyes thinking of landing right in
Alley POV: Stephen and the others rushed back out of the house but I was already heading towards Tye, Alex and Brandon. "How do we get her behind the shield?" I asked not to anyone in particular, if anyone knew they needed to answer me. "You can shift the shield for it to open a section and get them in." Davina replied. "How will she feel being inside of it?" Stephen asked. "If memory serves me right she will feel like her insides are twisting or feel as if they will burst." Terra replied. "Fucking beautiful." I said. Serves her right. I can't kill her just yet. We need to try to get information out of her, then I fully plan on ripping her throat out and watching life slowly fade from her eyes. "Alley I can feel the anger rolling off of you.. try to bring it back in, everyone is backing away from you." Stephen whispered in my ear. I stopped and looked around, sure enough everyone was at least six feet away from me. Anger is a difficult emotion for us to deal with, it's always heig
Alley POV: I could see the wheels turning in her head as if she was trying to think of another bargain. "You know I'm a seer, I can see you won't kill me." She snapped. Beside me I heard Stephen chuckle. 'Yeah, we know you are a seer, or so you'd think. But what you see isn't what will actually happen but go ahead and believe it." Stephen replied. "Bosch will come for me." She spat. "Here is the list, Alley." Jackson said behind me. I looked over the paper written in bold letters:- Liquid wolfsbane poured on my head, injected by needles- Silver knife dragged down my face- Whip laced with melted silver and wolfsbane- Whipped on back, arms, legs, neck- Broken limbs I read over the small list that could break down any wolf and disgust filled me. How could someone do this to another person? I could feel Rose pushing to get out, as humans we tend to be disgusted with another human but when our wolves see how another is being treated the anger that fills them is extremely hard t
Alley POV: I heard gasps around the room and I knew this would be the reaction, "Yes, some of you knew Raleigh the precious great white witch, but Alley has proven she will hold her responsibilities with ease and pride, she fought bravely against Bosch and won, and it is my honor to introduce the two that will lead this council, Alpha Quincy my shield, Luna Alley, my Great White Witch of the Black Wood Pack!" Atheas voice boomed with pride and approval, the room exploded with cheers as we walked down the stairs and the room came in to view I could see a lot of them had shifted and were howling I could see my parents and my brothers with their mates crying and clapping, I held my head a little higher as pride swelled within me more than it already has. Packs that didn't know us looked to us with happiness, I held on tighter to Stephens arm. Not that I was afraid of anyone but I didn't want to trip on my own two feet and fall face first, that would be incredibly humiliating. As we reac
Alley POV: Today is the day we are officially announced as the counsel and honestly I am thrilled. We broke the news to everyone yesterday of my pregnancy and I was happy to learn that Ambrosia is also pregnant! She is farther along than I am but they kept it a secret until we were all together. I couldn't shake the sickness so Pythia had a calming tea made for me. She said it helped her through her pregnancy with Apollo. We are all curious to see if their kids will have traits of wolf and vampire but in time we will figure it out. As I finished dressing I took a long look at myself, with each year that passes my hair continues to grow more white. Not that I mind but in truth it is starting to look like Atheas hair. I often wondered what Raleigh looked like, I bet she was beautiful. One day I will get to meet her, a soft knock on the door before it opens to the most handsome man I have ever laid my eyes on. "You look beautiful and glowing princess." Stephen said, leaning against the
Alley POV: Oh I am going to kill Stephen. Okay well it takes two but still! Stephen started rubbing my back and I growled out. "Whoa easy there Alley what's wrong?" Stephen said, jerking his hand away. I stood up and turned to him. "Rose told me that I am pregnant." I muttered. A huge grin started spreading across his face. "Is she sure? We can get a test. Or I can call Julie. This is good news!" Stephen said, visibly excited. I narrowed my eyes and placed my hands on my hips. "You're not excited?" Stephen asked. "Well the last time it was twins, even though I had an easy pregnancy my back hurt like hell and I looked like a bloated whale!" I yelled. I could tell Stephen was trying his hardest not to laugh at me and I felt overly emotional right now. "It's going to be okay princess I promise. I've called Julie to meet us here and I am having Alex and Brandon pick up the twins." Stephen said. I wanted to cry. I wanted to have a total meltdown. I felt the sting in my eyes and I couldn't
Alley POV: It's been a very busy year. After we had the twins everything else happened at once, the other women had their babies a few days after I did. We have spent so much time together while our mates moved forward with the castle for the counsel and we have decided that we were all going to move in it and keep our Betas and Gammas at the pack houses, we wanted all of our kids to be close with each other because something deep within me told me that when it is time they will resume to counsel. Ambrosia and Jackson built a new castle for themselves a little closer while leaving the previous one to those who needed a home. Pythia and Tye have done the same although their home isn't as large but still, they built something of their own to have. We decided that it was best that we stay closer together, we were suppose to have the ceremony for us but with all of us having the babies Athea decided to hold off and let us finish what we needed to, tomorrow is the celebration and l
Alley POV: Oh my goddess it feels like she is literally trying to break me apart! "You're at a five, you will need to come with me to the hospital." Julie said, removing her hand. "How? I've only felt it a few times." I asked. I'm already halfway there and I've barely felt the pain. "Rose might be blocking some of that pain. Have you felt her?" Stephen asked as he helped me sit up. "Actually I haven't felt her since the pain started." I replied. "Rose? Are you holding the pain back?" I asked. "Yes, not much of it though." Rose replied as she sunk back into my mind. "She said she has but she hasn't held much of it back." I said looking at Julie. "Go get her bag ready and be back down here in five minutes." Julie said look at Stephen who quickly got to his feet and ran upstairs. Sammie helped me stand to my feet and I could already feel the soreness. Another sharp pain hit me and this time it felt like a steel cage was wrapped around my stomach. I gasped, grabbing onto Sammies arm. "Ow
Alley POV: I swear to the goddess I am going to pop any down now. I only have a few more days and I feel as big as a whale, my feet look like I am wearing puffer fish as slippers according to Alex and Brandon but in reality my feet are just swollen, not that I can see because I can't see over the ginormous belly that has sprung out. I literally can't do anything on my own, hell I can't even balance properly because I waddle everywhere. "Good morning princess." Stephen says as he walks out of the bathroom looking more than good. "Don't look at me like that, Julie said no sex until after and I'm not getting in trouble." Stephen stated narrowing his eyes at me. I may have gotten him in trouble a few times but what can I say? My hormones are out of control. "I'm not even sorry, can you help me please?" I asked to take the covers off of me. I want to shower and try to get my day started. Stephen walked over and grabbed my arms sitting me up, he placed one hand at my lower back while st
Alley POV: Julie picked up the little wand and placed it on my belly, I held my breath not taking my eyes off the screen, "Come on little bean where are you hiding?" Julie whispered as she pulled the screen towards her. Before I knew it the sound of a little heartbeat filled the room. "Is- is that little one's heartbeat?" Stephen whispered, clutching my hand. "It is, just give me a second." Julie replied, moving the little wand around more. "Well look at that." Julie whispered. I could hear my own heartbeat filling my ears and my blood pumped through it hard. I started breathing harder, "Look at what? What is it? Is the baby okay?" I hammered out questions like my life depended on it, "Alley, deep breath the babies are fine." Julie said as an ass splitting grin came across her face. "I'm sorry what?" Stephen asked. "The babies, plural." Julie replied, turning the screen towards us. "Babies? More than one? WHAT?!" I jerked my head to look at the screen and what I saw could have made
Alley POV: "Stephen! Get your ass down here and bring Alex, Brandon and Jack with you!" I yelled as I stared at my living room that had junk food and crap laying around. I took Sammie out for dinner last night as a thank you for all she has done for me. I felt a little bad for Jack but I needed help with pregnancy things that grossed Jack out. While we were out the boys had a night of playing games and drinking, when Sammie and I went to bed they were still awake rough housing like boys do. I am now three months pregnant and starting to show, but with that I get tired extremely easily, we finally get to go see Julie to get an ultrasound and when my eyes landed on the site before me anger rolled off me. "YOU ALL HAVE THREE SECONDS TO GET YOUR ASSES DOWN HERE!" I roared, immediately footsteps rattled the house. Beth rounded the corner and a hard look set on her face. "Beth, come stand by me please." I said smiling at her, she lowered her head but did as I asked. The four men ran dow
Alley POV: I felt a little bad that they had been waiting on me so long, but as soon as my eyes met Stephen's bright blue ones all my senses kicked into overdrive and it felt like it was our first date all over again. Rose purred louder in my head as I took in his crisp white suit with a matching white tie and flat top shoes. His hair was slicked back and he looked mighty fine. "You look beautiful princess." Stephen said as he extended his hand to me. I felt the blush creep across my face. "Thank you for walking her down Jack." Stephen said, looking at Jack. I knew it, I knew he sent Jack. "My witches and alphas, it is time." Athea said, gaining all of our attention. I see white was the right choice, Athea looked breathtakingly beautiful. Her hair was braided like a warrior, she wore a light shade of blue eye shadow that made her eyes stand out on a new level. There was a glow around her that rolled off positive vibes in waves. We all walked outside and out in the middle of the field
