The Wolf Hunters Chapter 36
Cataleya’s POV continued- My nerves were a mess as soon as I stepped on campus. Dean didn’t have practice today, but I wanted to drive myself. It would allow for a clean getaway at least if something didn’t go right. I got to campus somewhat early so I could grab some coffee before I made it to the classroom. Once I got close I could see Kade already there, standing outside the door. When I got closer I could see his body stiffen for a second before he relaxed and looked up to lock eyes with me. I smiled at the warmth I saw in his eyes.“Good morning,” I said when I got close enough. “Good morning, Beautiful.”“Were you waiting for me?”“Well when you said you would talk to me at school today, you never really said when, so I got here as early as I could just in case,” he said with a sheepish little grin. I chuckled a bit at him and his smile grew. It instantly melted away the tension I had from the morning. “So about kissing you on Saturday,” he started, “I wanted to say that I’m
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 37
Kade’s POV- Waking up this morning I was already nervous as hell. I had no idea what Cataleya was thinking as far as everything that happened this weekend. Thankfully I didn’t have to wait long to find out. I got to campus with plenty of time to spare before our algebra class started so I could wait by the door and see her as soon as I could. When she told me about why she was hesitant with the mate bond, my wolf and I both felt a great sense of relief. For a while I was convincing myself that she was staying away because she didn’t like us or that we had done something that just pushed her too far over the edge. Now that I know it really had nothing to do with me other than the fact that I’m a wolf and her dad won’t like it, I feel a thousand times lighter and can’t help the small smile I get as she talks. She told me her reservations and I know that we can work through them together. When she mentioned Dean I had to calm my anger for a second. I still wanted to kill him for taking
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 38
Kade’s POV continued- I watch her silently take in the surroundings as I lay out everything for the picnic. The wildflowers are still showing even though it’s so hot at this time of year, but nowhere near as nice as it is in the spring. Hopefully she will let me take her here again at that time so she can get the full impact of this place. It truly is a magical spot. Her next question almost has me thinking she might already be able to read my thoughts and emotions.“So what makes this place your favorite, other than the obvious?”“Well actually there are multiple reasons. Of course as you can see it is a gorgeous site, made even more gorgeous with you here to brighten up everything,” I saw as she blushes. “This is also where my mom met my dad and found out they were mates. It was shortly after my mom turned 18. My dad was on patrol and she was excited to let her wolf run. Her family had recently switched packs after not fully agreeing with the morals of the Alpha of her previous pac
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 39
Kade’s POV continued- “I need you to get in the car and wait here,” I tell her before I take my shirt off and go to grab some shorts out of the back of my car. I look up at her face and she looks pissed. “Excuse me? What the fuck do you mean wait here? I’m not some little helpless damsel in distress. I can handle myself and I’m not backing down, plus you might need me.”“I know you’re a badass, but usually you have your bike and a bunch of weapons and gadgets to help. You don’t have anything other than me right now.”She looks at me with a smirk and reaches to her belt buckle. I’m not sure what she’s doing, but then she pulls a silver switchblade out of it. Guess she does have a weapon after all. “One more thing for you to learn about me, I’m never without a weapon,” she says as she flips it through her fingers. Not gonna lie, I’m both a little scared and definitely turned on seeing her like that. Unfortunately now is not the time to explore those thoughts. We have more pressing ma
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 40
Alec’s POV- It’s been a long day since all my classes are starting to get in full swing already. Add that on to football, the work I’m having to do with the pack, and another rogue sighting after weeks of no activity and I’m fried. I’m in my office trying to get some studying done since we don’t have practice today. Needless to say I’m not quite at the top of my game in awareness of my surroundings when Kade comes flying into my office and scaring the shit out of me. “Jeez holy shit man! Why the hell are you storming into my office like this?” I ask when I calm my heart down. He doesn’t say anything at first and just starts pacing. This has to be something big for Kade to get this visibly upset. He’s always been the calmest one out of the bunch of us in the past. “Why don’t you take a breath, calm down, have a seat and tell me what has you so freaked.”“Ok,” he says after a beat. He takes a seat and says “Sorry but you know it’s harder for me to keep my cool when it comes to either
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 41
Dean’s POV- When I got home today I wanted to take advantage of being home early and get some studying done. I was doing a good job of it too when I heard the alert that there was another rogue sighting. Before I could do anything about it I was informed there was already someone out there on top of it. I trust everyone here so I wasn’t in too much of a rush. If help was needed they would call. I finished the last page of notes I was on and headed down to IT to see if we could catch any of it on the trail cams. By the time I made my way down to the office it was already taken care of and my dad, of all people, was the one hauling him in. I smiled to myself because that usually means he would be in a good mood for the rest of the day. We had been trying to find a way around the spell or charm or whatever the fuck it is that is stopping these rogues from talking. It was actually Damien that had an idea we could try. Since we weren’t sure if the rogues just couldn’t physically say anyt
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 42
Dean’s POV continued- After as restful a night one can get before a potentially life changing temporary alliance, I made it through all my classes for the day and got to the practice facility as early as I could to get in touch with Alec. I guess I could have called him after talking to my dad, but I figured in person would be better. And yeah, I did want to exert the power I had just a little bit longer. It wasn’t odd for some guys to show up early. We would often come in and out throughout the day for workouts and extra film study when we could. It wasn’t long before I saw Alec coming in with Zander. “Hey man, can I talk to you for a minute?”“Yeah what’s up?”“I was able to get my father to cave on the co-op, but we have some conditions.” I see Alec close his eyes and take a deep breath before he responds.“Like what? We’ve already talked about Kade and who is going to be involved.”“We’re going to meet on neutral territory. Well, somewhat neutral territory. There’s a large enoug
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 43
Alec’s POV- When Dean said that someone with our pack was involved, every single wolf there let out a low growl that reverberated through the room. To his credit, Dean didn’t miss a beat and threw his hand out to stop most of the hunters, including his dad, who had started to get in defensive positions. “Everyone relax. If I believed anyone in this room could be involved then none of them would be here,” Dean said. The hunters slowly sit back and relax a little before Dean continues. “While the non verbal system is good for getting past the spell, it can also bring more questions than answers and doesn’t specify exactly who or how the pack might be involved. This is why I wanted to only bring those I trust into the meeting.” Oh he’s good. Play up the egos of those involved to try and gloss over not bringing us in sooner. I can’t help but smirk a little as it’s probably the same thing I would have done. I glance over to my dad and see that the little snarl at the corner of his mout

The Wolf Hunters Chapter 51
Kade’s POV- It was actually pretty nice having an afternoon lunch with my mate, my Alpha, and my mate’s brother. At first I thought it would be a disaster. In some ways it was, seeing as how there was a fight with a bunch of drunk frat guys. Overall though I think that helped us all bond a little bit more. Anything to help this alliance work better I will take. I know Leya told me that Dean was on our side, but I will take any chance I can get to win her brother over. I think protecting her during the fight helped with that, even though she didn’t really need it. Letting some of my anger out helped to calm my wolf after seeing those guys trying to touch what’s mine. I didn’t want her to think that I wouldn’t let her defend herself so I tried to hold back as much as possible. I think she understood what I needed though and let me do what I had to do. Now that she and I are good, my actions on the football field are a lot better. More so than before I met her. I can control my wolf du
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 50
Alec’s POV- I thought all hell was going to break loose when Kade came out and saw that someone was trying to hurt Leya. Thankfully that guy has more control than most wolves twice his age. It also helped that she was already in the middle of taking care of it before he could react. I had never really thought about Kade’s level of control before, but now that I do think about it the only time I’ve ever seen him out of control was when he first met his mate. The fact that he didn’t even let a growl slip when his mate’s safety was involved has me making a mental note to talk to him about that one day. Hell it even took everything in me not to react to the way these guys were behaving and one, I’m an Alpha, and two, it wasn’t even about my mate. These guys just couldn’t see past the booze induced haze they were living on and paid the price. It was laughable really what these guys considered fighting. The pups in our pack who haven’t even shifted yet know how to fight better than these
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 49
Dean’s POV continued- I almost feel bad for these guys for a moment. They clearly have no idea what’s really about to happen. Then I remember how they’ve been talking to my sister and all those thoughts go away. It’s glaringly obvious when one of the guys on the other side of Asshole number 1 tries to throw a wild punch at me. I side step just in time kicking his leg out to trip the guy, who falls closer to Alec while still trying to connect his fist with something. Alec manages to grab the guy's arm as he comes flying through the air and uses it to shift the guy's momentum and slam him to the ground, then puts his foot on the back of the guy's neck. Up to this point it seemed like Alec was doing all he could to keep his own wolf at bay, but the Alpha in him wouldn’t let a fight to protect his friend's mate go by without jumping in to have some of his own fun. He shakes his head at the guy before putting in his two cents. “Those weak, cowardly, shady ass throws aren’t gonna help
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 48
Dean’s POV continued- I turn back to Alec and he’s looking at me like I’m gonna blow up like a bomb. Or rather, like I did when I saw Kade with my sister for the first time after the game. I may have overreacted a bit that day, so sue me. Luckily I’ve had my time to adjust now though, and I’ve talked with each of them separately to know how they feel about each other. “Calm your tits Blackwood. I’m not gonna do anything as long as Kade doesn’t screw up and do something to hurt her.” Alec releases the breath he’s been holding since he noticed them walking up. Leya says something to Kade and he walks in while she waves at us and sits at a table close by. “Don’t worry about us. We don’t want to interrupt the little alpha pow wow you both have going on here.”“Alpha what?” Alec asks bewildered. “Don’t listen to her, she’s just mad she wasn’t invited,” I tell him as I shake my head. He just looks back and forth between us like we’re crazy as we don’t really interact with each other an
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 47
Dean’s POV continued- Two weeks laterIt’s been a little while since this whole alliance started but so far it’s going smooth. Slow, but smooth. We haven’t had any fights break out amongst each other and everyone was being cooperative, which is nice. Even the rogue we tried to question. However, information has been coming in at a glacial pace. Alec was able to talk to a witch they are familiar with who found an antidote that could work to counteract the spell she thinks was used. The major downside though is that it takes time to make. It should be ready early Saturday morning, so we planned to get together after the game to try it out. Luckily it was an afternoon game so we would still have time and not have to wait until Sunday. This also gives us another day for any follow ups we might need depending on what information we are able to get before having to go back to classes. Our alliance has also had an unintended positive outcome. Football practices have been going better than
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 46
Dean’s POV- The first meeting yesterday was mostly a success. It started a little rough, but by the end I think we really had a good flow going and no one seemed to care what species the other was. I even saw my dad relax a little while we were all going through the intel, but not much and it didn’t last. Progress though, am I right?I got through my classes pretty easily but my mind kept running through the scenarios and questions we would have for the rogue in a few days. Hopefully Alec’s contact could come through for us by then. I’m a little embarrassed to say that I was too far into my mind thinking about all this that I let my guard down and wasn’t ready when Kade came up to me right before I went into the athletic building. He jump-scared the shit out of me. “Jeez man what the fuck?!” I said as I grabbed my chest to somehow magically slow my heart rate down. I wanted to smack the little shit when I could see him trying to stop the shit-eating grin that was trying to take up
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 45
Kade’s POV- I knew that my mate was smart. I knew that she was a badass hunter. I didn’t, however, know that she would be this involved in everything going on. I knew that she took down a rogue, I mean I watched it happen, but I didn’t know that basically everything they have came from her. From what happened in the meeting it seemed like she is the only reason why we have any information at all. I should have known though. When she first told me that her family would know it was her that leaked information if I knew what they found out, I thought she was just being dramatic. That didn’t really seem like her style but I wasn’t thinking straight. I also now kind of understood why she was nervous about her dad knowing about us after I saw him and how he was reacting during the meeting. He was tense the entire time, even more so when there was some growling. For an older man he sure was quick in grabbing a weapon. It seemed like he was waiting for the shoe to drop the entire time and
The Wolf Hunters Chapter 44
Alec’s POV continued- There were only a few people that left, but on the bright side, Dean and Cataleya’s dad was one of them. Once the door closed I could visibly see Kade let out a breath. I wasn’t the only one either as I saw my dad raise his eyebrow at Kade. I don’t think anyone has told him about Kade and Cataleya, but he’s always been a good Alpha and he knows how to look at the little things with his pack.A few of us on both sides got up just to switch seats so that we would be closer and make it easier to collaborate. Cataleya pulled out another laptop that was automatically linked to the other smartboard in the room. She pulled up a blank document and labeled it ‘interrogation notes’. “So I figure we should start out making a list of what we want to know, then sort out the wording on the different yes or no questions we can ask that would lead to those answers. Also, feel free to share any information you have on the topics we have questions for. The more background inform

If I believed anyone in this room could be involved then none of them would be here,” Dean said. The hunters slowly sit back and relax a little before Dean continues. “While the non verbal system is good for getting past the spell, it can also bring more questions than answers and doesn’t specify exactly who or how the pack might be involved. This is why I wanted to only bring those I trust into the meeting.” Oh he’s good. Play up the egos of those involved to try and gloss over not bringing us in sooner.
