Over the last few days, I had spent time with Lena, and during that time I had never mentioned the fact that I knew that she was sleeping in her wolf form. Ever since that first night that Lena had been here, and I had gone to check on her and found her asleep in her wolf form on my bed. I had made a point of going to my room and checking in on her each night after that, and every time she had been asleep in wolf form. I will admit, it worried me. It hurt me to know that she distrusted me so much, that she felt she needed to sleep in her wolf form for her own protection.
Now the day had arrived when the girls were leaving here to go back to their university dorm. They would head back after lunch and knowing that I could not be there to protect them if something was to go wrong was hard for me to fathom. I had had a difficult enough time letting my girls go when they had first decided to live on campus. But now it was even harder, I was going to be allowin

Storm Since I had arrived at this pack, I had felt on edge. Alpha Doyle had been spending time with me since I had arrived here. We were sort of getting to know each other. But it was difficult. Our whole getting to know each other thing was moving at a snail’s pace because I could never let my guard down. Plus, I was worried about talking to him for fear of saying the wrong thing and setting him off. Every night when I went to bed, I slept in my wolf form just like I had always done. I know that with the bond getting stronger between the two of us, separation from each other would soon become an issue. But despite that, I was glad that the girl’s and I were going back to the campus today. Some distance apart would give me time to clear my head and get my thoughts in order. It would also give me a chance to calm down. With the anxiety and adrenaline overload I had been on the last few days, I was in need of some breathing room. I know that Alpha Doyle must be worryin

Storm The girls and I had been back on campus for three days now. Since we had been back, I had been trying to get back into the routine the girls and I had had before we ever went to the Celtic Moon Pack’s house, and I had met Alpha Doyle. But I had to admit, I was not having an easy time of it since we had been back. I was surprised that ever since I had arrived back on campus, Alpha Doyle was constantly on my mind. In an attempt to distract myself, I had ditched one of my classes the morning after we had gotten back from the pack house. While the girls had been in class, I had rung Winter and had a talk to her. I needed to let her know that I was still alive. I had filled her in on having found my mate and discussed with her my fears over being mated to an Alpha. Winter already knew I was terrified, but she had calmly talked to me about everything that was bothering me. We had scheduled another catch up call in a couple of days. I was glad I had her to talk to. I would be

Storm Leah seemed to think over what I had just said as we continued our run. We got back to our starting point and started doing our cool down stretches. I was soon lost in thought. Once again, I was thinking about Alpha Doyle. I found myself wondering what he was doing right at that moment. Was he stressing over us girls being here? Was he taking care of pack business with Beta Sean? Was he annoyed with me for some reason? Did he resent winding up with someone like me for his second chance mate? I was still lost in my own thoughts when I suddenly became aware of Lilly moving closer to me. Looking at her, I saw that her eyes were fixed on something to my left, and she was inching closer to me. I looked over to where she was looking and saw the group of guys who always followed the three girls around like a foul smell. “Hi pretty ladies, mind if we join you for a run today?” one guy asked, as he approached us looking cocky. “We have already been for o

Alpha Doyle I was too distracted to focus on pack work. Several times Sean had caught me zoning out. I was thinking too much about Lena and my girls. “Why don’t you just call her?” Sean asked. “I have, many times,” I replied. “No, you haven’t. You have been calling your daughters. You haven’t called Lena,” he replied. “I don’t have her number. And every time I call my girls, she will not get on the phone. She drives me crazy!” I replied, feeling at a loss over what to do about her. “Yes, I can see that. So, what do the girls have to say about it?” he asked, seeming to be quite happily amused by my current predicament. “Leah said to just give her time, so I will give her time,” I replied. “Well, I am sure Leah knows Lena well enough to offer up judgement on the situation. Just give her some time and let her know that you are there for her. Once she is comfortable, everything will be fine. She sure is a jumpy little thing

Storm Storm We were in Julie’s car, headed back to the Celtic Moon Pack. I was driving, going way to fast as we headed towards Alpha Doyle’s home. I was worried about getting us lost, having only made trips along this road twice. Once on the way out to the Celtic Moon Pack and then on the trip back to the university campus. I was scaring the girls with my driving. They weren’t used to the speed I was travelling at, and I was aware that they were holding on with white knuckled grips and throwing each other nervous glances. I was trying to focus on where I was going when Lilly suddenly asked from the back seat, “Lena, what is going on? Why are we heading back home? And why are you driving so fast?” “I will tell you when we get to your dad’s house,” I replied. “Lena, you are really scaring me,” Lilly said, as she looked at me, meeting my gaze in the rear-view mirror from where she sat in the back seat. I was driving as fast as I could while

Storm The girls and I waited out in the lounge room watching television until the Omega’s called us in for dinner. I couldn’t help but feel as though Alpha Doyle was now angry with me over what had happened. And maybe he was. He was an Alpha, and they were notorious for being moody. But realistically, what had I done wrong? I had protected the girls. I had brought them home. I had notified Alpha Doyle of the situation. What else could I have done? Dinner tonight was more quiet this time around, than what it was the last time I was here. I sat at the table in silence. I spent more time pushing the food around on my plate than I did eating anything. My chest felt tight, and my stomach was in knots, and for some reason I felt like I was going to burst into tears at any moment. After a short while, unable to put up with feeling this uncomfortable for a moment longer, I excused myself and made my way upstairs, lugging my suitcase to the spare bedroom that Alpha Doyle had

Alpha Doyle I saw a look quickly flitter across Lena’s face, passing far too quickly for me to decipher. She looked away from me, and shrugging it off, I made my way out of the room with Sean hot on my heels. Sean and I went upstairs to my office and sat at my desk. A few minutes later Sean let out a light laugh and said, “She is a little pistol, that one, I will give her that.” “Yeah, she is. But I don’t know what to make of it,” I replied. “What do you mean?” he asked, looking at me and waiting for me to explain. “Well, my daughters swear they said nothing. I didn’t tell anyone, and I doubt you did either. So how did they know of Lena being our new Luna,” I asked, meeting his gaze. “Wait, you think Lena told them herself?” he asked, looking at me surprised by what I had just suggested. “She was a rogue when she came here. Maybe she had a few rogue friends she conveniently never told us about,” I replied. “Connor, you ca

Storm The next morning, I awoke to find Alpha Doyle laying on the other side of the bed. He had his head resting on the pillows he had piled up behind him, and he was just watching me. It was a little unnerving. As I lay there, everything from the previous day came back to me, and I found myself remembering how miserable I had been feeling the night before when he had walked out of the room without a word, and my heart ached once again. The feelings I had been feeling at the dinner table suddenly hit me full force once more. I don’t know how long Alpha Doyle had been laying there watching me for, but I felt unnerved and vulnerable under the intensity of his gaze. Plus, the way he had treated me yesterday only served to remind me of how my father used to treat my mother. Fate really was one cruel bitch! Climbing off the bed, I made my way into the adjoining bathroom. Shifting back into my human form, I wrapped a towel around myself before closing and locking t

Storm The next morning, Doyle was so excited about the pregnancy that he couldn’t contain his excitement. From the moment we had woken up, he had been grinning like the cat that had gotten the cream, the milk, and the canary. When we had gotten Dalton and gone downstairs, he had announced it to everyone at the breakfast table. There had been cheers and congratulations and a few dirty jokes, but everyone was just as excited as we were about our new little surprise. After breakfast, Doyle had announced a pack meeting just as he had promised he would, and we had left to go to the place where my induction ceremony had taken place. When we arrived, I had looked at all the pack members who had been so warm and welcoming towards me and who could not contain their joy for me and Doyle when Dalton had been born; they had welcomed me into the pack as if I was part of their family. Now I was a little worried that they were all going to hate me

Storm We had flown back to Ireland, and I was glad to be back home. Doyle and I had hugged our baby boy close as soon as we had gotten home, and we had spent the evening watching movies with Leah, Lilly, and Julie. Mike had joined us as well. It had been a good family night. Before we had left Texas, Winter had pulled me aside and asked me so many questions about my life in Ireland. I know she wanted to make sure that I was happy, and that I was safe. I understood the protective side of her. She had stepped into the role of my mother right after our mother had been killed. I had explained everything to her. I had told her about Dalton, and I had explained to her that as a mother, I had held off mentioning him before, because I was protecting him. My baby had been the most important thing in my life, and I couldn’t risk Mason or our father finding out about his existence. As a new mother, Winter understood where I was coming from in that matter. We had talked about ou

Storm "I am only going to say this once, so all of you fuckers had better listen. I mean it, every single one of you. Even if Winter, Leon, Finn, and I have to tag-team it and fight our way through every member of this pack and have bodies piling up left, right and centre. I can firmly assure you, one way or another Finn and Leon will be the Alpha’s of this pack by sundown. Or at least what would be left of this pack anyway, because if anyone has earned the right to go on a killing spree through this fucked up pack… it is me! And rest assured if I start fighting any of you, those two will be right in the thick of it, so good luck with that,” I said, pointing to Doyle and Sean. “Now Josh, pull your head out of your ass and think before you speak. Because, since I have been back here, all you mutts have been acting as if this is all my fault. Like things suddenly went bad after I left! Lightbulb moment for all of you. Things were always bad in this pack and had been si

Storm I looked back towards the pack and said, “Members of the Hunter's Moon Pack as the two rightful heirs to this pack my sister Winter and I are going to install leadership for this pack. So, may I present to you, our choices for dual leadership, Leon, and Finn Weber. They are Alpha Felix’s brothers, so they are from an Alpha family, and they have our full support in this matter. So, if all of you screw up, we will all kick you asses.” Josh stepped forward, “Like hell, no way! You pair of traitorous bastards ran away like little cowards in the dead of the night. Where were the two of you when the pack was under attack? Hiding just like cowards, that’s where! Neither one of you deserves to be Alpha of this pack!” Josh spat; anger clearly displayed on his face. “And let me guess Josh. I suppose you think you deserve to be the Alpha of this pack!” I said looking at Josh and laughing in disgust. “I would be a better Alpha then either of you!” he

Storm As soon as we landed in Texas, Doyle hired an SUV to take us to the Hunter’s Moon pack’s territory. Upon our arrival there, it surprised me to see just how much damage had been done during the attack. There were burned out structures everywhere, and I could tell by the small number of people that were out and about tidying up, that the pack had suffered quite a significant loss in pack numbers. As soon as people saw me, I began receiving looks of hostility and blame. I didn’t let this phase me though. I didn’t like these people any more than they liked me. And as far as I was concerned, I didn’t care what they thought of me. I was standing beside Doyle and Sean when I sent a text to Winter. Me: Back in hell, where are you? Winter: Back on Texas soil, be with you soon xx Looking at one of the men who was standing nearby, I said, “You need to call a pack meeting now. Every pack member must be in attendance.

Storm During the flight I went and lay down in the master bedroom. I had so much on my mind, and I was totally wiped out. Plus, I was concerned about my baby. Separation anxiety had kicked in big time and had left me crying just like a baby. A while later, after my cry baby episode, I was laying in the dark trying to clear my head when Doyle came in. When he looked at me, he could see I had been crying. He came over to the bed and lay down beside me, pulling me into his arms. I lay there in his arms, with my head on his chest. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “Separation anxiety,” I whispered. “You’re missing Dalton?” he asked. I nodded in answer to his question. “I miss him already,” I whispered. “That is normal love. You will be worrying until you have him in your arms again and can see with your own eyes that he is safe,” he replied. I lifted my head, bracing all my weight on my right arm. I looked down at him for a moment before p

Storm Three weeks later I was in the nursery restocking baby supplies with Leah when Lilly came upstairs to tell me that Doyle wanted to see me in his office. “Why didn’t he just use mind link and tell me?” I asked. “I don’t know, he just told me that if I saw you, I was to tell you he wanted to see you in his office,” Lilly replied. “Better go down there, you don’t want to keep him waiting,” Leah said. I walked out of the nursery and made my way to Doyle’s office. When I got there, I saw that Sean was sitting at Doyle’s desk, in the chair opposite Doyle. I walked in and closed the door behind me. “We have got some news for you,” Doyle said as I walked over to his desk. “Okay…” I replied, taking a seat beside Sean. “We have received word that the Hunter’s Moon pack was attacked and that the pack has lost many of their pack members. I thought you should know,” Doyle said, watching me closely so he could get

Storm “Lena, what the fuck?” snapped James glaring at me. “Watch your mouth!” Sean snapped back. “You don’t ever speak to your Luna like that, or you will have me to deal with! Do you understand me?” Doyle asked glaring at James. “Yes Alpha, my apologies,” James said lowering his eyes. “Don’t apologise to me boy, apologies are owed to your Luna,” Doyle growled. “Apologies Luna,” James said looking at me. I met his gaze and just gave him a deep guttural growl. So, he could lower his eyes in respect to Doyle, but not to me. Suddenly I was annoyed, and my wolf was feeling bitchy and decided she needed to show it. She decided it was time to call James out on his shit and I agreed with her. It was past time to sort this crap out. Opening my mind link to the pack members within the room, I asked, “James, where were you and Daniel the day that the girls and I went for a run and got attacked by the rogues at the stream? You and

Storm After my father’s phone call, we finished up our pack business in Doyle’s office before making our way downstairs to check on Liam and the girls and the baby. When I got downstairs, I saw James and Daniel and James’ mate Sophie in the lounge room with Liam and the others. Well, well, well looks like today is my lucky day. It had been ages since I had seen Daniel and James, so it surprised me to see them and Sophie sitting there with Liam and the girls like it was an everyday occurrence. Sophie was getting too close to Leah and Dalton for my liking. After what that bitch had tried to do to Lilly, my wolf and I wanted her dead. I looked at Lilly who was sitting in the lounge's corner suite, curled up in a ball and looking like she was about to burst into tears. I could feel my wolf clawing within me to get out and wanting to kill Sophie to protect Dalton and Lilly. Before I could lock her down, my wolf took total control, and she forcibly shifted me int
