After stopping by to see Clara and assure her that Zak is fine, we walk to our suite on the top floor. Zak’s strength seems to be returning and he is able climb the stairs without issue.
Charlie’s and my minds have been in turmoil since Zak explained what he had been going through. Feelings of fear, pain, anger, grief, and worry flow through the matebond. It doesn’t help that we feel potent feelings of grief, regret, and uncertainty from Zak.
But there is also a sense of peace. His side of the bond seems more calm than it was before the fire. More focused. He’s definitely still grieving for his father, but it’s not as all consuming as it was.
When we get back to the suite, Charlie flops down on the couch while I lock the door. When I
Jodar! (Fuck!) This week has been a lot. Between the battle, the meeting of alphas, Zak’s near suicide, and the continued mating urge, our bodies and minds are exhausted.Upon the cementing of the alliance between the northern packs and the Earthshine and Eclipse packs, we immediately moved both of their packs north to Maine. We had to keep them safe. The Eclipse Pack is surrounded by the Blue Crescent Pack and the ocean, being located on the southernmost tip of Florida. The Earthshine Pack is a little safer since it is in the northern part of Georgia. But it’s not far enough away to keep the women and children safe. We need to get them as far away from Mathias as we can.In a matter of hours, the Earthshine pack had loaded moving trucks and cars and made a car
The taste of her dances along my tongue as I tongue fuck her pussy, bringing Merry to a second orgasm before Gael rips open the door behind her. Merry has her legs so tightly around my head, that I can’t move, but I look up and see that Gael is already naked and more than ready for us. He grabs her face in his large hands, tilting her up for a kiss. His hands move down her body to squeeze her tits. She moans into his mouth, her back arching. “Ven acà Princesa
We arrive at the Diana Pack much later than we were supposed to, seeing as we made several more stops along the way. I think we hit every access road between Pennsylvania and Maine.What should have been a 12 hour drive took closer to 18 and it’s midnight by the time Hakeem parks the SUV in front of the packhouse. I had fallen asleep laying on Gael’s shoulder, but I wake with both of us laying across the seat, my head on his chest. Hakeem is bent over the steering wheel, his head in his hands.“Dream?” I whisper, sitting up. “Are you ok, love?” I reach over Gael, touching Hakeem’s shoulder.He pats my hand and turns around to give me a tired smile. “Yeah, Merry. I’m just tired, that’s all.”
I stand waiting at the bottom of the staircase for my mother and sister to escort Meredith to us. Hakeem is beside me. If I didn’t know him as a mate, I would not know how nervous he is. But the tick of his jaw and the way that he clenches and unclenches his fists by his side show me how the nerves are riding his body. That, and the feeling I have through the bond. I had asked him to replace Karamea as my beta. His prowess as a warrior, his dedication to our people, and his abilities to organize and make sense of all of the pack business that I have to deal with everyday. He’s perfect for the position. He accepted, but he was having second thoughts. “Cálmate, Tesoro. Estará bien. (Calm down, Treasure. It’ll be ok.)” I gr
After the ceremony, Hakeem and Gael ask me to walk with them outside.“Can I change my shoes first? These heels are killing me,” I complain as I lean over to pull one shoe off.“Thought of that already,” Hakeem says, holding up a pair of flip flops.“You, my Dream, are perfect.” I stand on my tiptoes and tilt my head up for a kiss.“Hey, what about me? I’m the one that told him where they were,” Gael pouts from beside us.I giggle and reach my hand to his face, pulling him in for a kiss. “You are just as perfect, Papi.”
I run into the bathroom, crouching in front of the toilet and lift the lid just before I vomit. Shit! This is the third time in the past few hours. As a wolf, I’ve only ever thrown-up once before, when I had food poisoning as a young pup before I could identify the berries in the forest. Wolves just don’t get sick. The only reason that I would be vomiting this much is…I look up from rinsing my mouth out to stare at myself in the mirror. When was my last period? I pull out my phone, pulling up my tracking app. The pack GYN had recommended that I keep track of my cycles when Zak and I hadn’t conceived within the first two moons of our mating. A she-wolf’s cycle was based on the lunar cycle, typically starting two to three days after the full moon and finishing within a few days. That put our fertile period about a week later. That means that my fer
“Diego! Yes! Don’t stop!” I scream. He has me lifted up against the wall, my legs hooked around his elbows. His hands are firmly planted against the wall, giving him the leverage to hold me up. “Fuck, baby. Your pussy is like a damn waterfall. So wet. So tight.” His eyes are closed, his head flung back as he moves in and out of me. I pull him into me, our mouths meeting in a fierce kiss. I bite his bottom lip and he moans into my mouth. When I let go, his tongue plunges into my mouth seeking to dominate me through the kiss and I am here for it. I moan into his mouth, clenching around his cock, cumming hard. Diego continues to piston inside of me, though his movements are becoming faster and jerky. And I want to feel him explode inside o
Two mates. Two fucking beautiful, mouthwateringly sexy female mates. My brain was in complete and total meltdown. Dude, I’ve got to get my shit together. I’m a fucking alpha. I should be able to take control of the situation, right? Yeah, no. I just stand there with my mouth hanging open, staring at my new mate. Karamea, on the other hand, runs to her, pulling me along with her. Fuck, their scents are intoxicating. Karamea takes our mate’s hand in hers. Lacing their fingers together, she pulls our mate into her body. I watch in hypnotic fascination as they kiss and I let out a low groan. “What’s your name?” Karamea asks, running her nose down our mate’s cheek an
This is the end of War of Threes, but the third book, Trinity of Power, is coming!!Important/Interesting Info:1. I will be taking a couple week break to get ahead of the book. It will post on the website on 1/31/22. It usually takes it about a week for it to show up on the app, because they have to sign the book and do all the paperwork and blah blah blah.2. I will keep my update schedule of Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with the potential of special updates over the weekends.3. Main characters of the story will be: Severn, Corinda, Zak, Brandon, and Charlie4. If you're interested in hearing what I listen to when I write (other than the three gremlins that live in my house), here is my Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0Ff2Q8AQ5zlYP3MYFZVQzW?si=296adecc5dbd432b5.

“When did you see him, Lauren? When exactly did he leave? Where did he go?” I’m screaming, unable to keep my panic at bay.“He was here about 45 minutes ago. He left at almost exactly 4:40,” Lauren is sobbing, trying to remember all of the details.“He said that he was going through the forest path,” Carl says, putting on his shoes to come help us look.“He must have been getting flowers for Charlie. That means that he was going by the pond,” I murmur.We pour out of the house, running to the back of the house, Dev, Arya, Charlie, and me. Everyone else is already out searching for Brandon. Where the hell is he?We run to the pond and it’s like a mini natural disaster happened. A tree is moved, like it literally took a step out of the ground. The dirt is overturned and the tree’s roots are pulled from the ground. The branches
One Month Later…This month has been fucking insane, not just because my mates and I have barely had any sleep because of the pups. I mean, we are blessed that there are three of us, but there are two pups. Two. We feel like freaking zombies.Did you know that newborn pups eat every two hours? Not two hours between feedings. Two hours from when they start. I shit you not. Charlie feeds them both at the same time, but between getting them up, changed, fed, and back to sleep, it’s at least a half hour process. So every hour and a half, we’re up. I love Jerry and Christy, I really, really do. But, fuck kids, sleep!Our parents saw how insane we were and they also knew how important this time was for all of the packs as we were trying to sort out leadership while attempting to find CCS, who had gone strangely quiet
I’m in shock at that last little tidbit that the Mother throws at us. I just stand there, gaping at her.Devin pulls me into his arms, literally jumping up and down while holding me and whooping with wordless excitement.Mother Selene smiles even wider, laughing her tinkling laugh as the full weight of her words hit me.No, it won’t be the same. There will still be grief when we wake up tomorrow morning and he isn’t there. When our pups are born without him standing next to me. When we have to discipline the pups, or have a fight with each other, or take down CCS. When our pups say their first words, or have their first day at school, or find their own mates.No, it won’t be the same. But at least we will see him. We can hold him. We can hear his voice and see his smile again, not just in our memories.It’s better than the nothingness that I thought we would have, the bla
I think I’m still sitting on the ground with Arya cradling me, but honestly, you could have told me that I had just been launched into outer space for a mission to Mars and I would have believed you. All I can see were the black depths of Selene’s eyes. I can’t hear anything but the roaring in my ears. I can’t feel anything but an intense chill. Demi-gods. Fucking demi-gods? Arya is the first of the two of us to find her voice. “You’ve got to me shitting me!” she whisper-shouts at the Mother. “Demi-gods? What the hell do you mean?” “You both have had so much pain in your lives.” Arya gives a dry snicker at that, but Selene continues, looking to me first. “Devin, you’ve dealt with feeling that you had to hide who you were, hiding your love for your first mate, all to appease some antiquated thought of what leadership should be. Arya…” The Mother gives a large, deep sigh. She cups her mouth and n
“You told me I would be safe here! That Mathias would have no control over my life if I joined the Artemis Pack!” I scream at the Goddess, spit flying and my face heating with my rage. I jump off of the pyre and take large strides toward Selene. “Does this look fucking safe to you?” I fling my hands back toward our mate’s lifeless body on the pyre.“Arya, I – “ Mother Selene starts, but I’m not done.By now, I have crossed the distance between us and am face to face with the Goddess inhabiting Declan’s body. “First, you take away my family and force me into that den of assholes, homophobes, and rapists. Then you put me in a situation where I had to reject my mates and allow my ‘packmates’ to beat the fuck out of me. But then you tell me that I’m safe and that Mathias won’t hurt me again.”I step into the Goddess’s inhabi
I stand behind Arya, Devin, and Xander’s mom’s chairs. Zak is to my left, directly behind Devin, and Charlie is seated directly behind Arya. They are holding Jared and Christine, bundled up against the night chill. All of our friends and family are gathered around us: Lauren, Clara, Meredith, and the other she-wolves around Arya and Xander’s mom, and Richard, Carl, and the other alphas around Devin. The pyres are set up in front of us. Arya and Devin have barely spoken since we found them. We still don’t know exactly what happened, only that Arya is Luna and Xander is gone. They sit, dried eyed, just staring at the wooden bed where their mate lays. The family members of the deceased are all dressed in white in their mourning, but Devin and Arya are both dressed in a deep forest green. One of the few things that Arya said was that her family dressed in the favorite color of the one who passed on. It was a way to honor th
Brandon and Hakeem stay with Devin, Arya, and Xander’s body while Gael and I slowly make our way to where the battle just stopped. There are a few skirmishes here and there, but nothing that our wolves can’t handle. Some wolves from the Blue Crescent Pack don’t like that they have a new alpha or that she’s a female or that she is…was mated to two males. Fuck ‘em. I don’t care what they like. Now that they’ve stopped fighting our people, they can go rogue or we can imprison them or we can kill them. It honestly doesn’t matter to me. This ache in my soul won’t go away. I’m missing my friend, my brother. Zak? Brandon? What happened? Charlie asks through the mindlink. We had kept our connection open throughout the battle, so Charlie knew everything that had we had shown her. But the severing of Xander’s bond with us had cost us a lot of energy and having the link open constantly was too draining.&
After linking Xander and Devin, we shift and run into the forest to aid our allies. We leave Naomi behind, taking control of her pack. She has mindlinked them all, ordering them to stop fighting. Most of them have stopped, but because she hasn’t officially taken control of the pack and had them swear fealty to her, they don’t have to listen. And not all of them do. There are some who thrived under Julian’s rule and are pissed. They are only a small group, but they are made up of some of the fiercest warriors that Julian had. And they have gone into the forest to help support Mathias. The good thing is that Jeb’s warriors had been absorbed into Julian’s, so by killing him, we took control of two-thirds of the warriors. And they were also pissed. They never wanted to be a part of this, let alone have their pack taken over by the “Bloody Rogue Prince,” their pet name for Julian. They had been pissed that Jeb ha
