Allistar POV
I can feel myself waking up slowly, but I'm still too exhausted to open my eyes. I feel like I've been hit by a truck and then thrown through a meat grinder. My body has never sustained such severe injuries before so I know it's going to take awhile to recover any strength. While I'm here I might as well go over everything I remember to try and piece everything together. I know Raven got to safety, I got the shit beat out of me, and the man that did it is known as Alpha Cassius. I blacked out before anything else happened, but considering the fact that I can feel silver chains wrapped around my wrists means he probably took me and is holding me somewhere. The silver is affecting my healing ability which explains why I still like absolute shit. I can't contact my wolf while the silver is wrapped around my wrists, nevertheless my wolf can still contact the others and hopefully he can help. My injuries might be slowing hi
Raven POVOur goal right now is to find where Allistar is being held. Our first thought is that he is being held at the Blood Wolves pack where Cassius is the Alpha. It would be the safest place for him to hide out since he is surrounded by his entire pack and more than likely a lot of rogues as well. If he is being held there then that puts us at a serious disadvantage. We may be strong, agile, and have been training for this, but that doesn't mean we will come out of it successfully. They could easily just kill him the second they sense us within their pack grounds so the best bet is going in stealthy with the hopes of getting in and out not being detected by a single person or wolf. If we knew where Allistar was being held then we would have more of an advantage for this mission, but the fact that we can only guess he is in the dungeon on pack grounds we have never been to before means we are less likely for this to go smoothly.
Raven POVOn our run around the packlands I couldn't help but notice the state of everyone here. The women were dirty and seemed to be malnurished to almost a severe extent. They were walking around with their heads down and looked to be carrying laundry and food. I haven't noticed a single child even with it being the middle of the day which is usually the perfect time fo rkids to be out playing. It's making me wonder if there are any children here at all and I honestly hope not with the state of the women here. The people of this pack look to be on the verge of death. The smaller males are greasy, unwashed, and covered in bruises.'Penelope, are you seeing this?' I can't help but ask.'Yea, these people look so beat down. I can't imagine what their lives are like here. I've never seen a more depressing pack in my life. It makes me sad for them. We have to help them somehow.' Penelope has always been on the more sens
Allistair POVIt feels like I’m floating through pure darkness. I can’t feel anything around or under me and its starting to freak me out. Where am I and why can’t I see anything. Ok, let’s not panic and start thinking this through. For a second I cant even remember my name let alone what the fuck is going on then all of a sudden everything comes back in a rush. I’m in a dungeon on Blood Moon Pack territory where my supposed father and brother are keeping me hostage. Well this blows monkey balls.I need to get out of here before Raven and them come for me because I cant risk Cassius getting ahold of her. They should be untying me to take me to a room in the packhouse which means that’s when I have to escape. If I make it to the room then strong chance I won’t get an opportunity to escape and it will become near impossible for the others to reach me. I cant escape if I&r
Raven POVAfter hearing from Allistair that we only have about an hour left to get our plan into action, I call out to the others to meet back up near the pack house so we can regroup. On my way back to the meet up spot, I can't help, but wonder if our plan will actually work. I talked to everyone I could get my hands on and they all seem to want to get out of their situation and to a new pack, but the amount of fear that has been instilled into them worries me about our success rate. They all sat and heard me out about our plan and getting a new safe home which they are excited about, yet I couldn't help but notice how malnourished and weak they all were. A lot of them couldn't even reach their wolves with the state they are in. The plan needs to be adjusted or we are going to get a lot of people killed in our mission and that is not what we came here for. We are here to rescue Allistair and as many wolves as possible, not lead th
Raven POVWe are about 5 minutes outside the Silver Claws pack and I swear to all that is holy, if we arrive and there is some sort of battle going on then I will lose my shit. I'm tired and honestly just want to go home or atleast have some sort of break between these pack visits. Most of our time at the Dark Moon pack were spent with Allistar and I both trying to fully heal from all the damage we sustained. The past couple months have been just back to back sever injuries for me and no matter how well I can handle pain, it isn't something I would go out of my way to find. I mean come on. I deserve a gods damn break at this point.The main things I have heard about the Alpha of this pack is that he is task focused and treats all the wolves in his pack with equality and respect regardless of their strength or gender. Of course, this could all be lies or a front he puts on for others to seem like a better Alpha or whatever me
Allistar POVThe second we walk into our room, I notice there's an en suite bathroom so I don't even hesitate. I blindly throw my bag onto one of the beds and strip my clothes off on my way into the bathroom. I have my shirt and pants off by the time I walk through the bathroom door. All I can think about is taking a shower, so much so that I barely even glance at what the bathroom looks like. I slide my thumbs into the top of my boxers so I can take off the last thing holding me hostage against a shower right now. Before I can pull them off, I hear a noise on the other side of the bathroom and by chance decide to take a look thinking it's Dimitri. My eyes immediately catch onto bright green eyes and the only person I know with those eyes is currently looking me up and down. That can't be right though, Raven wouldn't be checking me out right now. Maybe she is just catch off guard by my near naked state. She finishes her perusal to
Raven POVI'm standing here in front of most of the pack, waiting for the Alpha so we can start our day of evaluations. I won't sit here and lie that I'm not stoked to see what the Alpha is capable of. I know when I choose to spar with the Alpha first before any evaluating that my people won't bat an eyelash, but his pack will probably get upset. Alpha is suppose to be the most formidable in battle so they will more than likely assume it will be an easy win especially against a smaller female like myself. I can't wait to crush their dreams of my defeat."Now that your Alpha is here, we will get started." I say looking at the Alpha. I let a smirk play on my lips before I continue. "First things first, I will be sparring with Alpha Samuel to show everyone the type of things we will be teaching and that regardless of your size, if you have the skill then you can easily take down an opponent bigger and stronger than you so don't
Allistar POVWe are close to a week into training these new wolves and I can't help but love every second of it. For one, it is always a blast to watch Raven put people in their place and prove she is the one to be feared when they treat her like a weak little girl. For two, I can see in her eyes when she looks at me that the shower incident is still something she thinks about so I have been messing with her a bit. Nothing too obvious, but I make sure I take my shirt off at some point every day during training. Which, I do get sweaty and hot so I would take my shirt off anyway. It's just a lot more fun to make sure Raven sees me remove it and I try to stay within her eye line the whole time. To be fair, I can't get what she might look like under those clothes out of my head and honestly it isn't that hard to imagine. She pretty much only wears a sports bra and leggings that mold to her ass and legs every day. Everytime I check her
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
