Benji’s POV“Come on, Bennet! The others are already at the palace packhouse, waiting for us. What is taking so long?” I yelled through the front door of the No 9 apartment. A light drizzle of spring rain greeted us before the sun was up. I pulled up to Bennet’s place at 5:30pm to pick him up for our trip to the North. As usual he was running late.After I made the decision to go to the North, I met with my team and discussed who would be going and who would stay for the trials. Since I had several nurses and medical technicians with families and children, I wanted my staff to decide if they wanted to go or not. Once the team was set in place, we worked out travel arrangements. We also decided to fly public transportation instead of the Blue Eclipse private plane. Bennet grumbled something about leg room and luxury, but I ignored him. Nothing wrong with business class; humans did it all the time.I looked down at my phone and reviewed the list of team members going one more time. Each
Conrad’s POVThis isn’t how I planned on spending my night after my meeting with Doc and Sean. My mind was already on overload with having conflicting feelings towards Hazel and also learning that this “Sherlock of Medicine” has decided to help us. I don’t know why I was so intrigued by this doctor even my wolf perked up a bit when he was mentioned earlier. To think, he didn’t want compensation for his services… What was he? A Saint? Or could it be all a show?I had just gone back to my room to go to bed and barely closed my eyes when Sean stormed through the door, not even bothering to knock.“Conrad! Another warrior is going ape shit! He attacked his mate then ran into the woods on the west side of the packgrounds, we gotta find him before he attacks anyone else!”“Fuck!” Not bothering to change since I was only in my boxers, I ran out of my suite and down the stairs with Sean close behind. A small group of warriors waited outside for us, and I was glad for the backup because who kn
Benji’s POVI stood in front of the full-length mirror, wearing the deep purple velvet floor length gown with fitted sleeves that my mother and I purchased. It fits my small frame in all the right places. The low V of the neckline accentuated my small perky breasts. I am not a curvy woman, but this dress made me look slender and fit, even my ass looked good. Hands slide up my bare back with the feel of the zipper being tugged together from the dress. The tingles shoot up my spine making my body involuntary shiver with arousal.“You look stunning.” His arms wrap around my waist, and he rested his head on my shoulder as we looked at ourselves in the mirror. Being in Gregory’s arms was heaven for me. I memorize his handsome self. He is wearing what has been dubbed the “Penguin suit” by Alpha Mars: a three-piece black and white tuxedo. “Dance with me.” He kisses my earlobe.I giggled as he grabs my fingers and spins me around to face him. Swaying back and forth to the imaginary music, th
Follow up to The Dark Alpha's Pet Benji’s POVBeep! Beep! Beep!I groan to myself as I try to ignore the annoying screeching sound of the alarm clock going off for the third time this morning. I slap my hand down on top of the metal demon of mornings and roll back into my warm comfy comforter.Beep! Beep! Beep! Slam! Scratch that… Fourth time. I turn my head enough to look out the window. The sun is beginning its peak-a-boo game over the tops of the surrounding trees which makes me scowl. Damn sun ruining what little sleep I get.To say I am a morning person would be the lie of the century. Mornings just mean I am waking up to another day without… Him… My mate is gone, and my heart still doesn’t believe it. Gregory was the Head warrior of the Blue Eclipse Pack and my biggest cheerleader for my medical career. He was strong, funny, handsome, and very kinky! Everything about him was the key to my reason for living. His death nearly killed me and… I close my eyes, willing my tears to re
Alpha Conrad’s POVI pinch the bridge of my nose with my thumb and forefinger, praying for some good news from the man standing in front of me. Lately everything that comes out of his mouth is nothing but complete shit. If his disheveled hair and hollow expression is any indication of how this conversation will go, then I am already pissed. “Just tell me Doc…” I say through gritted teeth.The doctor collapses in one of the chairs in front of my office desk. His tired eyes telling me everything his momentary silence isn’t. We have a crisis on our hands with no solution in sight.For the past three months, the Northeastern territory has been under attack and not by rogues or other packs wanting to expand their territories, but by an illness. A disease none of our doctors or specialists can figure out. As werewolves we rarely get sick because our bodies are able to heal at a much faster pace then a normal human being. We occasionally will need surgery for broken bones or medicine for min
Benji’s POVIn the distance, the sun is slowly making its nightly descent, allowing the moon to take its place. I click on my desk lamp and continue working on patient files. With visiting patients, meeting my research team, and scheduling out surgeries with my co-worker, Dr. Nancy, I barely have had a moment to stop. Thankfully the staff at the hospital always makes sure I have meals in between my many jobs.“Benji? Are you in? Its me, Beta Hunter.” A muffled voice comes through the door, and I beckon for him to enter. A tall handsome man comes into my office, and I smile warmly at my dear friend until I notice the expression on his face.“Beta Hunter what is it?” I ask, praying it isn’t anything to do with the royal family. The royal family have been my saving grace since Gregory died and I constantly worry about them. “Please tell me Ciara Bear didn’t go into labor already. She’s too early!” I look over to my calendar for confirmation. Yep. If she is in labor, she is about 5 weeks
Benji’s POVI scoff at the idea of getting away… “Ciara Bear, I know where you are going with this, and I don’t need a vacation right now. I have way too much on my plate for that!”“What about for a medical mystery?” Alpha King Mars holds out a thick blue folder to me, his face scrunched with concern and worry. I remember what Hunter had said earlier that he hadn’t seen Alpha King Mars this worried since Ciara was taken by the Dark Alpha. I shiver at the memory before returning to reality.“What is this?” I say, taking the folder and flip to the first page. I push my glasses up the bridge of my nose before reading the first page. My eyes widen as I scan over the documents. My hand moving over each page, quickening my pace as I read. “What? Wait! HUH? But How?” I am not particularly asking anyone in the room these question words but trying to rack my brain to what I am reading. I look up at Alpha King Mars in complete confusion. “What is all this?”He leans back in his chair, “I had a
Benji’s POVI knock on apartment building door no. 9 and wait for a response. The subtle signs of wear and tear of the paint catches my attention. Red paint is peeling away exposing the previous brown paint underneath. This was my home away from home when I was feeling lonely. I could hear the muffled sounds of someone moving around and I knew he was probably trying to pick up his mess.The door swung open and my favorite, very HUMAN cousin, Bennet, stands there with a grin on his face. “Hey Bee! Come on in. You know the deal, shoes off…”I walked in and did the routine after handing him the pizza and beer. Kissed both his cheeks, removed my shoes, then walked into the living room to plop myself down on his couch. “So, how’s Auntie Wendy doing?” I ask already knowing the answer.Bennet rolls his eyes as he enters the living room with the food, plates and beer. “You know my mother. Always the drama queen, always the hypochondriac. Just because I am a doctor doesn’t mean I can diagnose
