We are sat in the car heading toward my pack, Crimson Night Pack. Hell on earth….. And things were going to get a whole lot worse when Alpha Jace realised I had allowed my fated mate to mark me without me even asking him or letting him know….. Manny is driving, and I am in the passenger seat. I feel sick with nerves quite honestly and would like nothing more than to get straight back onto that plane and go back to Midnight Forest Pack. I felt safe there. They can protect me there, right? Jake was sat on the back seat, he seemed like he was a mixture of nerves and thoughtfulness. I wonder if he is going over the plans again and again in his head? Manny has said he is one for planning and preparation, so maybe he is just wanting to make sure they are well prepared? It is a bit hard to be well prepared when the Alpha you are coming up against is pretty unpredictable though. When he changes his mind more than time changes…. Alpha Jacob, Javier and Mateo were in the car dri
My heart dropped when Lola went to step out of the car when the guard told her to. If she was going to give in so easily to a mere guard, what fucking chance do I stand against the senior members of the pack or the fucking Alpha?! She was going to stay here, I think that is looking more likely now having seen her reaction to that. But right now, I cannot allow myself to be distracted by that, by my emotions and my feelings. I need to be fully focused or I will put myself and the group at risk. I cant do that. We are literally sat here like we are waiting for Christmas right now. The guard wont let us in. By the sounds of it, they won't let anyone into the pack who is not prearranged, and without the Alpha’s permission, which I guess is not too unusual for packs, as it is general pack security. But surely a quick mindlink with the Alpha and you could authorise us to be permitted into the pack. But the way the guard was talking was like he was in a fucking trance, reciting a sp
I feel my body tremble as my Alpha looks at me, his voice reverberating through the car as he demands an answer “I said she did what?!” Manuel was showing no nerves and neither was Jake, but I saw Manuel take a deep gulp, so perhaps he was just good at hiding his nerves. “We already completed the mating and marking process.” Manuel says. “I fucking heard that, I want to know why” Alpha Jace has not taken his eyes off me and his voice is full of venom. “Well you didn’t really clarify that, you asked what she did, so I was telling you” Manuel says with some sarcasm to his voice. I can see all over his face he does not like this man, and that is not unexpected considering the things he has heard about him. “Don’t get smart with me fucker” Alpha Jace leans into the car, his face inches away from Manuel’s. I don’t like him being that close to him. What if he tries to hurt him? I quickly press on the button in the centre of the car which closes the window without th
We walk through the main doors of the packhouse. It is a very run-down building, paint peeling off the window frames and doors. Tiles are coming off the roof. The building was in serious disrepair. It really made you realise how lucky we were that we had such a nice packhouse and nice packlands.All the buildings within Midnight Forest were well maintained and had been for as long as I can remember, and likely long before that too. That is just how the Winters family ran their pack. I went to hold Lola’s hand but she resisted, putting her hand in her pocket instead. I think me jumping to conclusions and overreacting to what the Alpha had said had upset her, and she was not going to be happy with me for sometime. What if she didn’t forgive me? She may decide she didn’t want to be my mate after all? Could that happen? Could I have messed up just by me over-reacting? Because I disliked my mate being called a whore?! Surely any male would dislike that? I know I am clueless wit
“Right Bitch, Want to explain why you thought it was ok to break our pack rules?” Alpha Jace’s voice booms from behind me. I turn, feeling myself shaking as I do. Knowing that all hell is about to break loose. I see the group of men I had travelled with all stand up, looks of shock and anger on their faces clear to see. All looking ready to defend me. Not to mention feeling Manuel’s fury through the mate bond. Hmmm I have a feeling him hoping to stay calm and focused was going to prove difficult…… “Alpha Jace, is there any need to be talking to Lola like that?” Alpha Jacob speaks up on my behalf before I manage to defend myself. “And who the hell are you? Another one she is opening her legs for?” Alpha Jace snarled. “This is none of your business. She is from my pack and I need to talk with her, so all of you can fuck off” “I am former Alpha of Midnight Forest Pack. And I think you will find this is our business as Lola is part of our pack now, she is official
I step in front of Lola again, hating hearing him talk to her like that. How he can blame this situation on her is ridiculous. This is all their doing for running a pack so inappropriately. “Do not talk to her like that, Alpha” I hear a voice from the doorway and look up to see a man. “Papi!” Lola says from my side. Ah, I assume this is her Dad then. No chance to feel nervous in meeting her parents I guess! She rushes over to hug the man as he walks into the lounge. He is tall, and has the same caramel skin as Lola, but jet black hair. A muscular build of a typical former warrior, much like my Dad and Uncle. He wrapped his arms around his daughter like he hadn’t seen her in years. “Oh Lola, I thought he was going to have hurt you” he says. “There is still plenty of time for that. Don’t you worry about that old man” Alpha Jace laughs evilly. All of us in the room look to him with a snarl. My girl is well protected. A woman walks in the room following
Hearing Alpha Jacobs mindlink got me fired up. I was ready for this. This dickhead had been pissing me off since we had arrived here. The way he had spoken to Lola and her family was unforgivable. He was no Alpha. He should be punished for the way he runs his pack. That is not the actions of an Alpha. I am impressed in Manuel for keeping his cool. Though I can only imagine the internal battle he must be fighting with his wolf to stop him coming forward, as I know Rey will be desperate to come forward to attack the Alpha for the things he has been saying about Lola. As for Mateo, well, he is funny as fuck, but I swear he was trying to get himself or us killed. When you listen to how he speaks and how Gabe speaks, there is no denying where Gabe gets his sense of humour from. It was almost like having Gabe here with us when he spoke up, but I still think he probably should have kept his mouth shut in that moment. Pissing of a psychotic Alpha when he is already enraged is proba
Our warriors teams came running into the building from three different directions. “What the fuck?!” Alpha Jace demands “And you weren’t invading?! You sure of that former Alpha?!” “No, these are merely our protection, bodyguards if you like, and considering you were about to illegally detain us, I would say we were within our rights, wouldn’t you?” Alpha Jacob says, I’d like to say calmly but I am sure there are nerves to his voice now. “No, I don’t think so former Alpha, I would say you came here to cause trouble. So I suggest your fucking men stand down or there is going to be more than trouble” Alpha Jace says, his voice full of authority right now. I glance to Jake, who is looking a little less confident than he had done earlier, I have to say. I normally would be fine in this situation, but the fact Lola is here and she is in potential danger is my main concern right now and I can't shift that thought from my mind. That is going to be the thing that affects my usual a
