We waited at Crimson Night Pack for Esme and Gabe to arrive. There was a massive change in the pack since we had first arrived. Many pack members had already been relocated. The atmosphere was so much less tense, so much happier.The Werewolf Council had guards within the pack and at the gates to ensure security was maintained. And their investigations were still ongoing but seemed to be going well. From the information passed to Alpha Jacob and Knox, the stories and reports coming through the interviews from pack members were shocking and basically meant Alpha Jace and his senior pack members, including former Alphas from the last 30-40 years, were well and truly screwed. They would be charged with such a long list of charges it is unlikely they would be seeing the light of day again. That is if they didn’t choose to punish them with death penalties for some of the crimes.And personally, I couldn’t have been happier. They have made so many innocent people
Leaving my family behind at Crimson Night Pack was difficult, but knowing that they would be following in a matter of days driving up to Midnight Forest Pack to move there permanently was crazy. I never imagined when I met Gabe that night that it would mean such a big change for me and my family. Their pack has done so much for the Crimson Night Pack and the people in it when they didn’t need to. They could have so easily ignored the things we told them. Or chosen to help just Lola and I so we could be with our mates. But to go above and beyond to help the entire pack, make sure everyone was rehomed in safe packs and make sure that any of the senior pack members was held accountable was honourable of them. Something I think the majority of the pack will forever be grateful to them for. And I can't begin to say how relieved I was to know that the Alpha and all his senior team and former Alpha's would be punished for the things they have done, and for r
We finally arrived back to pack, back to our house after a long day of waiting at the airport, and then the flight and travelling from the airport. We now had some time before Lola’s family would arrive, as they were driving up to allow them to bring all their things from their home they would need. “Welcome home Carino” I smile at Lola as we walk through the door having finally left everyone else to go their separate ways. Gabe had wasted no time rushing off home with Esme. Not that I blame him in the slightest. She came to me and wrapped her arms around my waist “Mmmmm. I am glad that is over with” she sighs. To be honest, so am I. I finally have my mate home, and know she is going nowhere. Can't say I was not worried for a big chunk of that that I would lose her. “Me too” I admit. “I was scared for a
I had left my friends and my family as quickly as physically possible to get back to my house after saying goodbye. Tomorrow I will be going to speak to Tate Carter’s family along with Manny, and the other warriors that had been out there, we had agreed that while we were waiting at the airport. We wanted to show our respect for our fellow warrior and his family. Knox would no doubt come with us despite having already been with Lilah before he traveled down to see me in the hospital. Alpha Jacob too, I would imagine. We will be arranging a memorial service for the young warrior too, bless him. He had been so eager to come and join in on a real mission. I had been devastated when Manny had told me. But unfortunately, it is part of the role we take on, and something we find ways to adapt to, probably never fully deal with or accept, and never forget the guys you lose. But you find ways to move on in your life and be happy and have a fulfilled life as much as
I had been so nervous initially, but kissing him and being in his arms, I suddenly felt a surge of confidence. Kya was going crazy in my mind for her mate. She wanted this as much as us I think. So I can only imagine what Aspen must be feeling. Gabe literally stood there with his eyes popping out of his head as I walked away naked, which made me giggle to myself. I am hoping that is meaning he wants me as much as I want him. Seeing him take his shirt off made me all hot and flustered. He is one hot bastard! I am a lucky girl… Standing at the shower screen door and trying my hardest to be sexy, trying is probably the right word, I am far from sexy, I am clumsy and dumpy, I probably look as sexy as an old woman, but I got to try for my mate right… I stand waiting for him, and I am guessing my trying worked to some degree, as I have not seen a guy take his clothes
I wake to find the bed next to me empty, and Lola not upstairs. How had I not heard her get up? This is odd. I quickly get out of bed and grab some shorts to throw on after going in the bathroom and head downstairs. As I approached halfway down the stairs I spot Lola, already dressed, in yoga pants and a crop top, her hair twisted up into a small bun on top of her head. She appeared to be busy cleaning the house. But why?! It wasn’t even messy. I don’t get this. I headed further down the stairs, to be hit by the smell of food cooking and coffee brewing. Don’t get me wrong, it smells amazing, but why is she doing all this? I get a sinking feeling I know where this is coming from, and it bothers me. A lot. I do not want this from my mate? She does not need to be doing all this for me. I feel like she seems to think I expect her to be like a housemaid for me, as that is certainl
Waking up I was so sleepy,after very little sleep. I went to roll over and my arm was dead. I went to lift it and couldn’t feel it, it was only then I realised Esme was lying in bed with me. How in the hell had I forgotten that she was with me?! I swear I am losing the plot! My mate was with me! We had slept together! Re-marked one another! And my crazy ass brain had completely forgotten she was laid next to me in bed, despite the fact I have been snuggled up with her all night in between our fun and fumbles. Not quite sure just how much sleep we actually got. But how I had forgotten she was there I do not know. Maybe being in the hospital had sent me insane or something. I turn myself to look down at her, watching her sleep. She is perfect. She was still snoozing, her face so sweet and innocent looking when asleep. Haha, though I know now, after the many times last night, she is far from
I sit in the lounge desperate to get up and continue cleaning, but Manuel has told me I don’t need to. The house isn’t that bad, but if I am sat around doing nothing, then it looks like I am not doing my job as a good mate, taking care of our home. Especially when our home is one as nice as this. Manuel has built a beautiful home in preparation for when he found his mate. Ready for his mate and himself to build a family. It is only right, like I have been taught that I should do the right thing and clean it, take care of it. He is the man in the house. I have to take care of him. He provided me with the house. I have to look after him, make sure he has all that he needs at home. That is what I was taught. I keep reminding myself. Though when I follow the things we were told, he seems to get frustrated. Says it isn’t like that here, but that is not what we were told. We were
