Allistar POV
It's been a week since Raven's birthday and well it's safe to say something is going on with her. Honestly it would be difficult to miss.
The day after her birthday she was a little on edge, but that was barely noticeable. When I asked her if something was wrong she told me everything was fine. There was no way I would be able to miss the fear and worry in her eyes. I tried to question Penelope about what was going on and even that was a dead end, which means something is definitely going on. She isn't as capable of keeping things to herself so for her to be able to lie while looking me in the eyes means something serious happened.
Raven didn't start to act bizzare until a few days after that. She seemed almost paranoid of everything. There was no focus on her training what so ever, she just kept looking around everytime she heard a mans voice. She doesn't seem the type of person to be paranoid or not foc
Raven POVI don't know how to explain the level of fear going through my body on a constant basis. I can't focus on training and I jump everytime I hear a mans voice. It's getting so bad that my paranoia is rubbing off on Penelope so she has been less than nice to everyone. She knows what happened a few days after my birthday so since then she has pretty much moved into my house with me. We need to get out of this pack and run, but going it as rogues would be difficult especially as she-wolves. She-wolves don't tend to last long as rogues, they are either killed or kidnapped and raped. We may be great warriors, but after time our strength will weaken without a pack to attach ourselves to and at that point we would become bigger targets. Especially since I wouldn't be able to shift around others and she hasn't turned 18 yet so she doesn't have her wolf.I found out who ended up seeing my wolf. Turns out it was the worst perso
Allistar POV It's officially been a week of hell since we called Alpha White about getting Raven and Penelope out of this pack. Dimitri andI officially have a plan and if that plan falls through then we will just run. I can't stand seeing Raven the way she is. I need to get her somewhere safe. Hopefully once she is somewhere safe then she will be more willing to open up to me. I feel like we were meant to cross paths. That it's fate that I was sent here. I resented the Moon Goddess for a while after I was rejected, but now I think it was meant to be. I was sent here to be rejected by my mate and then meet Raven and get her out of here. Even Dimitri feels the same way about the girls, we were sent to save them from what this pack does to strong women. I say it's been a week of hell because Raven was showing up every day to training covered in bruises that she didn't get from training. I know it's Maximus, but I have
Raven POVI can't express the immense hell I have been living this last week. It's been officially 2 weeks since my birthday and I haven't never regretted getting older more than I do now. I know I said that if Maximus did anything to me then I would tell Allistar and Dimitri, but it's nothing I haven't dealt with before. Maximus finds me every night and a couple mornings where he just beats the living shit out of me. I must look horrible when people see me for training. No doubt Allistar and Dimitri have noticed my change in appearance. I make sure to wear baggy shirts so the bruises on my chest and stomach aren't noticeable. The bruises and couple times my nose have been broken are definitely bad enough so I can't imagine how they would react if they saw the full damage being done to me. Every time Maximus beats me he alwasy tells me that he will stop if I just accept him as my mate. I would rather take these beatings every day f
Raven POVAll of a sudden I wake up and for a second I think it was all a nightmare, but that second quickly fades when I realize I'm tied down to the bed. When did I pass out? What happened? As I turn my head to the side to look around the room I feel a sharp pain in my jaw. He must have knocked me out so he could tie me up. Looking at the clock I notice I've been passed out for 20 to 30 minutes and immediately start to panic. I do a quick evaluation of my body to see if any damage has been done. So far all I can tell is that he tied me up and left. I don't feel pain anywhere else on my body and my clothes are still on so there's that. What is going to do to me? Maybe he won't come back and he tied me up just to make me feel helpless. Before I can let any hope through I hear footsteps coming up the stairs towards the room. I pray to the Goddess hoping it's Penelope and not Maximus. The second my bedroom door opens I realize my pra
Allistar POVWe are sitting in the small hospital they have here and the images of earlier keep swirling around in my head. I should've realized that Raven's wolf was asking for help and it wasn't just a weird dream. We should have reacted faster and checked on her sooner, then maybe she wouldn't be in this position right now. The pack doctor said he isn't sure how long she will be unconcious due to the extent of injuries she sustained. He noticed right off the bat that she had been injured with silver which is why she lost so much blood and wasn't healing. That sick son of a bitch did this to her and the Alpha doesn't seem to care. Dimitri took Maximus to the Alpha to inform him of what happened and what we had walked into, yet all the Alpha did was blame Raven. He said she puts herself in these positions and she should know how to behave properly so these things won't happen. Maximus got a slap on the wrist for the terrible thing
Raven POVAll I can see is darkness. I can't see anything, not even a sillhouette of a person. I take a second to listen, hoping I can atleast hear someone to help figure out where I am, but as I stand here all I can hear is my own breathing. My breathing is becoming erratic at the thought of being dead. I can't die by his hands. What kind of death is that. I didn't even get the chance to fight back. I fall to my knees terrified as the memories start rushing back. Last thing I remember is Penelope's face coming towards me which means she got there before he could follow through with what he had planned. Thank Goddess. Maybe she didn't get there in time to save me from my injuries and that's why I'm here. As I look around I can still only see darkness. I thought once you accepted you were dead then you would go somewhere, but I'm here still stuck in darkness. This doesn't feel right, something is off."Hello? Is there anyone
Allistar POVRaven has been unconcious for a week now. It is getting to the point where the doctor is concerned she won't wake up or if she does wake up, there will be problems with either her body or her ability to connect to her wolf. We have all 3 been taking turns to make sure atleast one of us is here at all times. Maximus has tried to come visit her using the mate thing as a reason why. Thankfully the doctor is aware of what is going on, so he hasn't let him come see her. He is still trying to sneak into her room when the medical staff aren't around, which is what caused all of us to be concerned. We know Maximus has bad intentions towards her. He is either upset she didn't die or he will take advantage of her being unconcious to mark her without her permission. Since his first attempt to get into her room, we made absolute sure to never leave her alone. We won't even run to the bathroom without someone else here.I ha
Allistar POVIt's been 3 days since Raven woke up. We have been waiting patiently for the doctor to clear her so we can set everything in motion. The days waiting made us more and more anxious that our plan may not work the way we planned. Alpha White has been filled in completely on the plan and that today is the day we set everything into action. He has to be prepared for the phone call he will be receiving from Alpha Jones. As long as he sticks to the plan and doesn't waiver then everything will be fine. Dimitri has noticed the anger his father holds towards Alpha Jones has been growing with the days passing. I think it's just being nervous, nevertheless he can't be letting his anger get the best of him. If he lets that anger be known during the phone call then it will seriously mess with our plan and Alpha Jones will know we are lying. The doctor just cleared Raven to leave, so we sent her and Penelope to her house to pack the
Raven POVThe second I open my eyes I realize where I am. I'm standing in the most stunning field I have ever seen. The smell of wildflowers is almost too much. I take a deep breath to relish in the peace I feel here. I know I died, but I can't help the calm I'm feeling right now. The only thing that would make it better is if Allistar and Penelope were here. Like they can hear my thoughts, I hear my name being called. Looking over to my right, I see Allistar, Penelope, and some woman standing by the Goddess. I can't help the smile from spreading across my face. I'm so happy that I almost start crying. I run to them and give them the biggest hug."Did we win?" Is the first thing that comes out of my mouth. I need to know I didn't leave everyone with a war to fight without us."Yes my darling daughter, you won. I am so sorry you three had to lose your lives to win this war. That was never my intention, but I am so prou
Raven POVThey may have arrived sooner than anticipated, but we've spent the last two days planning and training. We are as ready as we will ever be. The plan is for Dimitri, Penelope, Allistar, and I to lead a group that attacks from the front with the wolves from the Dark Moon pack while Alpha White heads off to the left with his pack and Alpha Samuel goes to the right with his. The idea is to attack from all sides to then eventually circle them completely. We have to do that without them noticing our strategy too soon. If they catch on before we can surround them then we are screwed. The scouts informed us that there were about 200 wolves in their army, but looking now it seems they have over 400. 400 outnumbers us 2 to 1 and I have to say those are not good odds for us to win. I look around to gauge everyones reaction to this new discovering. I'm not surprised to see worry on everyones face, but their determination is stronger
Allistar POVHearing everything that Raven went though makes me feel sick. I can't believe he did all that to her just to make her agree to mate with her. That's still more believable than Cassius helping her excape. He fought our father to help her escape instead of just trying to take her for himself like he's been wanting. It doesn't make him a good person, but it makes me wonder why he went out of his way to help both Raven and I. What is his end game in allowing us to live. Multiple growls going off around in the car pulls me from my thoughts. Focusing back on the conversation I realize everyone in the car is growling, including me. I think we are all pissed at what he did to her for no reason other than to break her so he could use her as a breeding mare. The nerve of that man. I hope Cassius killed him."Also, Allistar and I are eachothers second chance mates and we completed the mating. Which is also why he missed hi
Raven POVAm I actually about to have sex with Allistar right now? I have to say that I am really glad I rinsed off in the waterfall before passing out in here. I can't imagine what he would have done if he had seen me covered in my own blood. Having him stare at my naked body is making me remember how many scars I have. I blush and reach up to cover myself with my arms. He stops me with a possessive growl. "Don't hide yourself from me. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen and I want to take my time to fully enjoy the view." Well damn.He gently glides his fingers from my throat and around my breasts. Taking his time to rub his thumbs over my nipples causing a jolt to go through my body from the pleasure that shot between my thighs. Continuing his hand further down pass my stomach, he hesitates just above that precious bundle of nerves I desperately want him to touch. I start squirming when he doesn't move his h
Allistar POVWe have been searching for Raven for three days now and I'm starting to really worry. About half a day after Dimitri and I headed out to search for her, the connection between Raven and us was restored. We followed the connection for the rest of the day until it all of a sudden cut off again. For about .5 seconds I was terrified that she might have died, but Jack reminded me that we can still feel her. It may have been too weak for us to use it to track her, yet it sat in the back of my soul reminding me we still had time to get to her before the worst could happen. Once the connection cut off, Dimitri and I split up to cover more ground until the connection came back on. Because the connection will come back on and we will find her. There is no other option. We will find her alive and bring her home.Penelope got in touch with us about a day into our searching to let us know she is healing slower than normal. I
Raven POV'Raven, waake up! Someone is coming!' I hear Iris yell at me. It takes me way too long to wake up enough to open my eyes. I'm not in as much pain, but I still feel like death is just waiting with her arms open to claim me. Fuck.Once my eyes are fully open I see someone I was not fully prepared to see. "What the fuck are you doing here?" My voice sounds like absolute shit after the screaming and having nothing to drink since before I got here, but I'm still able to put a bit of a bite to my words."What am I doing here? The question is what are you doing here strapped to a table?" He seems genuinely upset about his discovery. I guess it's not too weird since his dad is going behind his back to try and take me from his son."Your dad kidnapped me to try to force me to mate with him. He's been torturing me for hours to get me to give in. You didn't know?" I don't try to hide the confusion I'm feeling ri
Raven POVI wake up groaning. Fuck, it feels like I've been hit by a gods damn truck. I don't even remember going to bed last night. Must have been a rough training session with the women if I feel like this. I go to roll over to get up when I realize I can't move and what I thought was a bed is actually a cold metal table. What the fuck is going on? I take a second to try and remember how I ended up here, but the only memory that comes to me is training the women and then I blacked out. I hope to all that is holy that the guys decided to pull some fucked up prank on me because if they didn't then I'm for sure in danger. It takes a second for my eyes to adjust to being opened, but once they do I realize I'm in some sort of underground area. I'm surrounded by walls made of brick and covered in moss or something similar. It doesn't matter right now what kind of plant it is so I don't know why that was a focus of mine. Ok moving on, I
Allistar POVI get woken up by someone lightly shaking me. Opening my eyes, I notice that it's Jason shaking me so I give him a quick nod to let him know I'm fully awake. I go to sit up, but a weight on my chest stops me and that's when I remember. Looking down I see Raven still peacefully sleeping. She is practically wrapped around my body at this point and I can't help but to admire the peaceful look on her face. She is always so focused on whatever task we are busy with. Even going without sleep to make sure everything goes smoothly so it's nice to see her just be. Without much thought, I softly tuck a piece of her hair behind her ear to get it out of her face. The action ends up waking her up and I can't help being disappointed. I know she needed to wake up but I wanted her to be peaceful for just a bit longer. Once those beautiful green eyes lock on to mine, my hearts does a little skip. She is just so magnificent. I could loo
Raven POVAfter the shower incident last night, my brain has been a complete mess. Atleast it seems he is just as affected by me as I am by him. The tenting in his shorts was impressive to say the least. I wonder how long he was standing there watching me before I noticed him. Maybe after all this prophecy business is behind us I can look into exploring these feelings with him. Or not. There's no way the Goddess doesn't bless him with another mate. A better mate. He deserves someone to love him for the rest of his life. I wish I could hope for a happily ever after for all of us, but I know that is unrealistic."Does that sound good to everyone?" Dimitri's voice pulls me out of my thoughts. Shit, I wasn't listening. Everyone replies with sounds of agreement so I mimick them. I'll ask Penelope later when we are alone so I know what we are doing with this new developement we have to deal with. Guardians, ridiculous.Now
