POV Lance
I sighed in happiness when I awoke. My mate was in my arms, my pack was safe and I was working to make more allies to protect them both. All was as it should be. I just wanted this forever.
Samantha's eyes blinked open. For a moment they held confusion and then she remembered everything and she smiled shyly at me.
"Did I have any more nightmares?" she whispered and I shook my head.
"Not that I could tell." I replied and grinned back at her.
"Good. I would feel bad if I woke you up." she replied.
I shook my head at her words.
"Don't ever feel bad at that. You should wake me anytime you need me. I would be upset if you didn't. I'm here to help you." I pushed.
"You really are too good." she whispered.
"Now we both know that you're the good one in this relationship. I'm just trying to catch up." I tease as I pulled her closer to me.
I kissed her on the head and sighed. Of cours
POV SamanthaI smiled up at Lance as we walked out of the airport. I was happy that he had agreed to come with us to my pack. I had so much that I wanted to show him and I was excited to see my pack members that I had missed so much."I love seeing you so happy." he whispered to me as we settled into the SUV that picked us up. "I missed my pack so much and I can't wait to show you off to everyone." I teased and he grinned down at me."Is that all I am to you? Arm candy?" he joked back and I nodded.He growled playfully and I kissed him.I was relieved to get back to our pack lands. I had been worried about the well being of my pack members and I wanted to get back to my daily routine. I had to take a break on my degree while we were gone and I still needed one more year to finish it. I was anxious to finish it and graduate. I also wanted to get back to the gym and to boxing once a week. I had missed it so much
POV LanceThe next few days were heavenly. I got to see where my mate spent the best part of her childhood. I was delighted that her pack members warmed up to me after the first day and they enjoyed telling me all their favorite stories about Sammy when she was a little girl. Evidently, she was everyone's favorite which is honestly not surprising. How could anyone not love her?Sammy took me around with her everywhere and I got to see what everyday pack life looked like for her. She was always helping in some way, from taking over trainings to helping the cooks, she did it all with no questions. She was always willing to pitch in and never complained or pulled rank. As a rare omega, she honestly didn't have to do any work around the pack but of course, she would never do that. Because of her willingness to pitch in, everyone knew her and they all had a story to share. They also all wanted some time with her whenever they could get it. She was goi
POV SamanthaI looked at Lance nervously as we drove back to the pack house. His words after my match were still ringing in my head. He would just smiled darkly at me when ever we made eye contact. To make matters worse, I had to ride in his lap again. I nervously wiggled and Lance grabbed my hips to still me."Baby, you don't want to do that." he hissed through his teeth in my ear and I froze in realization."Sorry." I yelped and he just smiled and shook his head at me."Did I make you nervous, little mate?" he continued to whisper and I huffed at him.Slowly, he began running his hand up my thigh and I gasped. I grabbed his hand and stopped it before it got too high on my leg. I glared at him and he smirked. I sighed and looked away. He cupped my chin to look at him and he gazed into my eyes with a frown."You know that I'd never pressure you, right? You never have to be worried or scared of me." he assured me and I felt m
POV SamanthaI went back up to my room after Lance left, since I was still tired. I slept for a couple more hours before getting up and wandering into my bathroom. I was surprised to see Lance's toothbrush still there. I shook my head and smiled. He must have forgotten it.After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I went back in my room to change. As I looked through my drawers and found a couple of Lances shirts tucked into one of them. I was sure that I hadn't put them in there and I had no idea how they got there.Not a moment later, my phone rang. I grinned when I saw that it was Lance calling and answered right away."Hi. Did you make it home safe?" I asked."Yep. Safe and sound. How are you doing?" he replied."I just got back up. I took a nap." I answered and he chuckled."Aww. I wish I was still there to nap with you." he said."Me too. By the way, you left your toothbrush
POV LanceI frowned at my phone as I hung up. That was the third time I had tried calling Sammy in the last two hours and she just wasn't picking up. I took a deep breath to calm down. She might be in training with Rune or working on a class. Hell, she might just have her phone on silent or it might be out of batteries. There was no reason for me to be upset or worried. No matter what though, I couldn't get rid of the ball of dread in my stomach though. This was the first time in the week in a half that I couldn't get a hold of her within a few minutes and it was bothering me. I strode through my pack house nodded to my pack members as I took out my phone and stared at it. I sighed and decided to just give in and call Eddie. I knew that he might tease me but at this point I didn't give a shit. I needed to know that my mate was safe.He picked it up on the second ring."Hello, Alpha" he said and
POV SamanthaI took a deep breath after Lance hung up the phone. He was pissed and that made me nervous. Alpha's were dangerous when they were angry. I knew this fact first hand.I looked around the room and saw that my father, brother and body guard were just as mad and they were all staring at me. I started to use my omega powers to calm them but Troy stopped me just like he did before."Don't even try it. We don't want to be calm right now. What the hell were you thinking?" he asked and I threw myself down on the couch next to him.I groaned and rubbed my face with my hands."I don't know. I was scared. I thought that I was seeing things at first and I guess that I was hoping that the notes were a joke or something. I didn't want to get everyone all upset over nothing." I tried.I was surprised when Sean spoke up."So you admit that you were scared?" he asked as he leaned down to see my face. I nodded slowl
POV LanceI hung up with Samantha and growled. I was livid. How dare she not tell anyone about the notes. How dare she not tell me! I stood and walked briskly to go find my beta, Trevor. He was in his office like I thought and I banged open the door and walked in. He looked up at me in surprise."What's wrong?" he asked and I snarled."Sammy has been getting threatening notes a couple times a day since Saturday. She didn't tell anyone of course, and the fucker even dropped one in her bedroom while she was showering in the adjoining bathroom this morning. On top of all that, the future beta of the Dark Moon pack is missing and has been for over a week but no one noticed it until this weekend. Oh, yeah and Sam's been seeing someone who looks like Alpha David around town. You know, the supposedly dead guy that abused and tortured her as a child?" I spat out at him.Trevor just blinked at me for a moment."I'm taking the plane with our
POV SamanthaI took a deep breath after Lance made that statement and thought. Could that be true? Why would some stranger try to help me? Why would he do it in such a way? Why would he go to so much trouble?I shook my head, there was no reason for someone to do this but Lance was right, the notes did seem more like warnings than threats."If that's true and someone's worried about Sammy, why warn her this way? Why wouldn't they just come to Dad or I?" Troy questioned."Maybe because they don't trust the pack?" Trevor spoke up."Okay but then who is this 'he' that's mentioned? How would a lone wolf living out in the wilderness know anything about someone targeting Samantha before they actually did it?" Eddie asked.Dad cleared his throat uncomfortably and I glared at him."What are you not telling us, Dad?" I pushed and he sighed."I just need everyone to stay calm. Agreed?" he said and we nodded
POV SamanthaThe last few years have been bliss. All three packs are thriving and due to our close bonds, countless mates have found each other which has only bonded us closer. The Blood Moon, Golden and Dark Moon pack are now the top packs in the world. No one would dare challenge or harm us. Our packs are havens for our pack members and while nothing is perfect, the pack members are safe and happy. Our pack is just and many lone wolves seek us out to join, knowing that they will be valued and not mistreated.Shimon and Emma just had their second and third children. Twin girls. They already have a three year old boy that reminds me of his Uncle Troy more and more everyday. Good luck to his sisters, at least there's two of them. They might actually stand a chance against their overprotected brother and father. That's my hope at least.Shimon's mate Emma and our beta, Trevor's mate, Emma are best friends. They call each other daily and vi
POV LanceThe rest of the night went exceedingly well. The packs were all pleased with our plans and I could see that while the Dark Moon pack was sad that Sammy was moving, they were relieved that she would still have a place in the pack and regular contact with them. I was surprised to see how happy the Blood Moon pack was with Shimon taking leadership, Emma being announced as Luna and with Samantha as an advisor. They were also pleased that Elder Summers and Alpha Jack were going to assist. They were showing so much trust in the new leaders and I was relieved to see that my old pack would have a bright and happy future.The Golden pack was overjoyed at the news of Samantha formally becoming our Luna and moving in with us. The cheer that our warriors sounded was ear splitting. The rest of the night was a haze of happy faces and congratulatory hugs and handshakes. Samantha stayed by my side the whole time and neither of u
POV SamanthaSomeone knocked on our door and just like before, Lance hurried to answer it. I heard a murmur of voices that I recognized as Annie and Lance thanked her as he pulled in a book bag and two garment bags and I sat up as he closed the door."Annie brought us some clothes. She said that there's new undergarments and shoes in the bag along with some hair and make up stuff. She offered to come help you but I didn't think that you would want her to. I can call her back if you do?" he asked."No, I'm good to do it on my own. I want to spend your last hour alive together." I teased and he rolled his eyes."Don't kid. They really might kill me." he replied but he had a smile on his face."We better get ready. We don't have much time." I said as I got up.I walked to the bathroom still naked and he eyed me hungrily. I shook my head at him."Don't look at me like that. We don't have time." I said.
This chapter contains mature scenes. POV Lance"Of course" she whispered and that's all I needed to hear.I was on top of her in a second, kissing anywhere I could reach as she moaned and wiggled underneath me. I pinned her to the bed and kissed her deeply and any hesitation left in my mind flew away. This woman was my everything and I finally was able to show her. My hands roamed down to the bottom of her shirt. I pulled it up as we broke apart. She lifted her back to help me pull off the offending article of clothing. Once off, I threw it behind me and smirked down at her half naked form."You are breathtaking, baby." I moaned at the sight of her.She blushed and I groaned again, feeling my pants tighten more than I thought possible. She smiled then and reached for my shirt. I reached down and pulled it over my head before she could do anything. My shirt then went sailing after hers. She gasped as sh
POV SamanthaCreed pulled me gently away from my father and held me close."I'm so glad that you are alright. We have to make up for lost time together now." he whispered and I nodded."Thank you, Creed." I said and he looked down at me in confusion."For what, honey?" he asked."For watching over me. For protecting me. For being my brother." I replied and his face transformed into a huge grin."Oh, Sammy. You don't have to ever thank me. That's what big brothers do." he said as Troy walked over to us."Can I get in on this sibling love?" Troy asked and we smiled at him as we wrapped our arms around him."Creed, I hope you know that you now have a brother as well as a sister." Troy announced and Creed looked him over carefully for a moment."Awesome. I've always wanted a brother. Plus now we can make sure that Sam is protected no matter what." Creed replied."Crap." I muttered and everyone chuckle
POV Lance"Fuck!" Troy yelled as he took off running.We all followed him to a scene that made my heart stop. Stacy and Samantha were standing in a circle of my father's warriors. My dad was pointing a gun at Samantha. At my mate! Just as we ran up, he shot it and I felt myself almost break. We all watched in horror as Stacy leapt at Samantha, knocking her down. Troy roared and started attacking the warriors. The rest of us were quick to follow as we all tried to call out to Samantha and Stacy. As I beat the warrior in front of me, I saw Samantha rise and crawl towards Stacy. I snapped the warriors neck and ran to my mate.I killed another warrior that dared to get between us with ease. I reached the girls just as Troy did. We looked at each other in worry and I looked down to see Samantha sobbing over Stacy."It's okay. He just got my shoulder." Stacy said."You fucking bitch! Why would you do that? I could kill you!" my sweet mat
POV SamanthaElder Summers nodded and then Dad took over."We need to search the forest. I have warriors and allies guarding the edges so I don't think that Barron got out yet. He has a group with him, one of our allies saw him leave and said that he left with at least ten warriors of his own." Dad began and we nodded."We need to move fast but quietly. No one goes alone and link with us if you find him. Don't try to take him without backup." He finished.He then split us into groups, Dad, Mom, Ash and Sean in one; Elder Summers, Matilda, Jules and Eddie in another. That left me with Lance, Troy, Stacy, Shimon, and Creed. "That's not fair! Why are so many in my group?" I argued but Dad just sent me a look."Because I need to know that your safe. I need both my children to be safe so that's the way it will be. Otherwise, you can go back to the pack house." Dad replied coldly and I knew that there would be no changing his min
POV Lance I sprinted as fast as I could through the forest towards the fighting and my mate. I shifted into my wolf as I ran. I heard and smelled my mate's brothers and father next to me doing the same. We were all desperate to get to her. Behind me, her mother, best friend, and mentor were following with Sean, Ash, and Elder Summers who vowed to keep an eye on all of them.I knew that Alpha Jack, Troy and Elder Summers didn't want their mates in this fight but we hadn't had time for them to argue and there was no changing those women's minds. They were determined to help Samantha. I knew that Samantha would hate the fact that so many people she loved were put in harms way but my heart warmed at the fact that so many cared so deeply for her.We finally made it to the ceremony grounds, right where they used to be. I took a breath as I witnessed the carnage around me. The pack warriors and rogues were brutal and the upri
POV LanceI knelt down behind a bush as I kept my eyes on Alpha Jack, waiting for his signal. Samantha was supposed to link him just as the ceremony was starting so we could make our move. We had been watching the door to the dungeon for almost an hour and everything seemed to be going according to plan. I was relieved and worried when we watched a majority of the guards leave about twenty minutes ago. That would make our job easier but make Shimon and Samantha's situation that much harder. I was hopeful that this rescue operation would go quickly so I could go assist my mate. I exchanged a look with both her brothers that told me that they felt the same way. I knew that Shimon had vowed to keep Samantha safe and I knew what a good fighter she was but I also knew that the numbers were stacked against them. Plus, Samantha wasn't really the type to let other's fight for her. Shimon wouldn't be able to keep her out of the batt
