Chapter 69 - Xander
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Arya reads the text messages to the group. Seth had given us information about a small encampment that was living on the Mani Pack territory, of which Zak is actually the alpha.
And Arya is possibly an alpha now. Shit, this is confusing.
Anyway, that encampment is there to keep an eye on us. They are also directing rogues to our territories. They must be trying to pull us out of our safety net here in the Diana Pack. Seth told us that they are going to set up more camps on other packlands, including the Shadow Pack and the New Moon Pack. Right now, they are packing up supplies for the group at the Mani territory. They will arrive there tomorrow morning. The other groups would be leaving in the morning for their camps and would arrive mid to late afternoon.

Once we are all seated in the dining hall, I see that only Xander and Arya are there. A few minutes later, Dev walks in, handing Arya some pills and a bottled water. She smiles at him gratefully and quickly takes the pills. Now that I look at her, she looks a little pale and there is a slight grimace on her face. All good? I ask Dev via mindlink. For now. She says it’s just cramps. He doesn’t turn to look at me while he links, his eyes scanning over her body. His voice is laced with worry, though you wouldn’t be able to tell by his face. Lily and Bhakti are here. They could talk with her. Dev’s eyes fly to mine.

We park the APCs at our pack and shift, making our way on foot to the Mani Pack. It’s only about a two hour run, which isn’t much for a wolf. Xander sent several scouts ahead of us to check out what the situation around the packhouse was and dispose of their guards. After about a 30 minute lead, the rest of us head to the Mani packhouse. We make it there at about dusk.The scouts report to Xander and he shifted back so that he could talk to the three packs. “The scouts reported that all of the wolves are around the packhouse grills, preparing for dinner. They killed about 20 guards and are reporting about 60 more wolves in and around the packhouse. We’ll split into three groups and met up with the scouts on three sides of the packhouse. One in front, one on the northeast corner, and one on the northwest corner. We’ll fan ou

I had no idea that she was cutting us off from her emotions. I feel like the worst type of asshole that I didn’t insist that she go to the hospital while we were still on Diana Pack lands. But even Lily had taken her word and said that we could wait. Right now, Xander and I are in the waiting room outside of the surgical suite. Arya had to have a D&C. I had never heard of one before and Lily was patient as she explained it to us. When they completed the sonogram, they had found that not all of the placenta had detached from Arya’s uterus. This is super dangerous, even for a wolf, and so they had to do surgery to get everything out. We were allowed to stay with her during the pre-op phase, but when they wheeled her into the operating room, we had to leave. She’d been in there for about 30 minutes when the doctor ca

It’s 3 am and Hakeem and I are in the shower. I wish it was for something fun, but we are trying to get ready to leave for the New Moon Pack land. Trying being the operative word. Hakeem LOVES sleep. And he is not doing well right now.“Tesoro, you have to wake up.” I rub the loofa over his body, trying to shake him awake. His eyes are closed and his head falling to the side.“No.” He whines, his eyes closed and head laying on my shoulder. “I miss Merry. Let’s go curl back up with her.”“We can’t, Tesoro. We’ve gotta go.&

It’s about a five and a half hour ride to the New Moon Pack territory and we make it there by mid-morning. From scouting reports, there was no one around yet and Seth’s texts had said that no one would arrive until around midday. We had plenty of time to set up defenses and patrols. Thankfully, when the original massacre had happened at the New Moon Pack, the alphas had sent in a cleaning team. They had burned the bodies and buried the ashes and they had cleaned the worst of the blood and gore from the packhouse. We had plenty of space for all of the wolves with us and it was recommended that we get a few hours of shut eye before the action started. But, before that, Liam, and I sit down with Gael and Hakeem, along with both deltas to go over strategy. “Patrols?” Gael asks his delta, Patri

Hakeem and I set alarms on our phone to wake us up. Multiple alarms. On both our phones. Because Hakeem needed them. Tesoro was exhausted from waking up early, our morning romp with mi reina, and the long ride here.I finally got him up by literally tickling him until he fell out of the bed. And then, we ended up making out, only to be interrupted by Patrice knocking on the door, telling us to get up and grab some food.I trail kisses from his mouth to his matemark, biting down lightly. Hakeem growls softly, holding my head to his mark. I suck on his mark, my hands playing down the sides of his bare chest before grabbing onto his waist a

Keegan left his beta, Donavan, in charge while he and Patrice...got acquainted. Donavan and a few of the other wolves sat down with Alessandra, Liam, Jordan, Gael, and me to look over a map of Mathias’s territory from their vehicles. Now Mathias wasn’t stupid enough to give us a map that had all of his safe houses and stuff on it, but the fact that we had a more accurate view of his territory, including hunting trails, small ponds, and shading for the dense parts of the forest was much more helpful than the general view we got from a typical human map. Donavan pointed out where things were situated, including where all of the she-wolves and pups from every pack were. The fucking homophobic prick was keeping all of them close to where he was so that the other packs would have “motivation” to keep him safe. Low growls rumbled through all

Earlier that morning:I wake to Karamea’s scent in my nose, the feeling of sparks from her head on my chest, and the sound of my phone alarm going off.She reaches over and turns the alarm off, sitting up and stretching. Turning to me, a smile stretches across her lips. “Good morning, handsome.”“Only good thing about it is you,” I groan, trying to pull her back down to the bed and into my arms.She laughs at me and pulls out of my reach, hopping off of the bed and flicking on the lights.&nbs

“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
War of Threes Chapter 131 - Arya
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
War of Threes Chapter 127 - Zak
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.&
War of Threes Chapter 126 - Brandon
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
