Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 77 An Unrepentant Land
~Noah~ The hall was silent for a bit. I could see Brandon trying to compose himself. It was obvious he wasn't done speaking, and he had much more to say. So we all waited. "I never had a choice, Alpha Noah. Please be in my shoes and see if you would have acted differently. What do you do when you have to choose between your happiness and the welfare of your people? What do you do when you have to choose between joy and the survival of your people? My people can't trade, we can't do business, we can't mingle. How do we earn money to pay off our debts? How do we earn money to be independent? Would it be better if I had gone ahead with the wedding and married her? Then what will happen to my people? What would happen to Hayland?" he asked, and I had a response for him, but I held my tongue and waited for him to complete his lament. The truth was, the issue was that he accused me of taking what belonged to him; the rest of his nonsense was inconsequential, but I would be patient with him

~Noah~ I refused to respond, my anger simmering beneath the surface as Brandon's baseless accusations echoed through the chamber. The presumption of guilt in my silence hung heavy, but I remained composed, choosing not to dignify his claims with a response. It was clear that this confrontation had ventured into personal vendettas, straying far from the initial purpose of the council meeting. "Everyone knows what you and your brothers are doing. Waiting your old man out. After all, you said it at the engagement party in Brentwood," Brandon continued, his gaze turning toward Moses for confirmation. Moses, appearing uncomfortable, avoided eye contact and remained silent, neither confirming nor refuting Brandon's claim. Brandon shamelessly pressed on. "You bragged that you know you are going to get the positions anyway, whether your old man desires it or not. No one dares challenge you for anything. I mean, goddess forbid anyone tries it. So you can just take what you want, bully whoeve

~Noah~ I wasn't bluffing when I extended help to Brandon. Despite Ethan's clear displeasure, Sebastien comprehended the gravity of the situation. We piled into the jeep, with Tevin taking the driver's seat, ready to transport us to the alpha's office. My brothers might not have been thrilled about the unexpected turn of events, but I had a plan to wrap things up quickly and return to Lucland by tonight. I can already imagine the surprise on Winter's face when she sees me. As we embarked on our journey, tension filled the air. Ethan couldn't contain his frustration, and Sebastien, sensing the need to diffuse the situation, addressed him. "You need to chill, E. The guy already has it bad," Sebastien advised, attempting to bring a sense of reason into the tense atmosphere. Ethan, however, wouldn't have any of it. "It's like you guys did not understand the magnitude of what that fucker tried to do in there. He wanted to turn this entire thing into a mate-stealing crime," Ethan exclaim

~Noah~ As I processed this information, a wave of realisation hit me. The fact that the King was involved in summoning Anthony and Adrian to Greenville indicated that there was an event of considerable significance. The exclusivity of the invitation raised questions about what might be happening, and the feeling of being left out gnawed at me. Our father could have told us. I guess we weren't supposed to know. "What's happening in Greenville that they only invited a selected few?" I asked, my curiosity getting the better of me. Adrian sighed, a hint of weariness in his expression. "I wish I knew, Noah. It's something big, but they didn't disclose the details. We're expected to be briefed tomorrow morning. All I know is that it involves a meeting with some high-profile individuals in the South," I relaxed a bit, though still in shock over Anthony's unexpected arrival. The realisation hit me that if Winter didn't see Anthony, it might lead to her thinking I lied to her. I ran my f

~Noah~ I could see that, despite the mistakes he had made, Brandon had a good heart. The complexities of his situation and the emotions he harboured painted a more nuanced picture. "You are a true alpha to your people, Brandon. I respect what you did for them today. Begging on their behalf took a lot of effort, and I know it is hard. I commend you for it," I expressed genuinely, acknowledging the sincerity of Brandon's efforts for his pack. He smiled at me, appreciating the recognition, and his gaze wandered around the room as if reminiscing. "I was running a business consultancy in Gad when my mother called me and informed me that Hayland needed an alpha, and I was next in line," he began a chuckle escaping him at the unexpected turn his life had taken. "I said no. Honestly, I didn't think I was cut out for the job, and I had learned what had happened to the place. She pleaded with me to come home and fix the place. I had no choice. It was either that or the place would be withou

~Anthony~ Ethan and I finished lunch and decided we should head to the orphanage. It was best to get the task over with so we could rest and go clubbing tonight. It was the least I could do. Most of us were going clubbing in Lucland, but the sudden summon had counted me out. Adrian and Jacob weren't going anyway, so nothing was lost on their part. "It sucks, right?" Ethan asked me behind the wheel. It was as if he could read my mind. "There are some hot chicks in Lucland, and I was looking forward to clubbing," I confessed. "Me too. But then that fucker Brandon had to throw a tantrum and drag all of us here," Ethan said, and I realised he had some serious resentment toward the Alpha. It wasn't a good thing because Ethan could be dangerous. I really didn't want to be in Brandon's shoes. "Wouldn't you ask me what he did?" Ethan asked, and I shook my head. "Nope. None of my business. Heard enough shit to last me a bit. If you tell me, then it becomes my problem, and I don't want th
Last Updated : 2024-02-20Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 83 Hello Chelsea
~Anthony~ Breaking the spell, I cleared my throat, prompting Chelsea to look up from whatever she was engrossed in. Her eyes, large and expressive like a doe's, met mine. It was as if time stood still for a moment, allowing me to take in the details of her features. Full, pink lips, a face perfectly contoured yet softened by gentle edges – she was the epitome of delicate beauty, a fragile charm that I felt the need to handle with care. Without lingering, Chelsea gracefully rose from her seat and bowed, a gesture of politeness that caught me off guard. It was a touch of formality that seemed unexpected, given the casual setting. It made me wonder about her background and upbringing. Realising that she might not recognise us, I took a step forward, eager to bridge the gap. She didn't seem like someone who followed television, or perhaps she simply hadn't connected our faces to any public personas. In any case, I extended a hand in greeting, ready to introduce ourselves. "Hello, Chels

~Sebastien~ Brandon left us after our late lunch and headed back to Hayland to set things in motion against our trip back to Lucland the next day. It wasn't long after Brandon left Ethan and Anthony returned to the office. The moment I saw the glint in Anthony's eyes, I knew we owed him a night out clubbing. I was hoping he wouldn't go to the orphanage at all, but he surprised me. "We went and met with Chelsea," he said, making himself comfortable on the single couch in the place. Ethan went to sit at my desk. I could tell he was troubled, and I planned to ask him what the issue was. "Food and other stuff was delivered. There were some new clothes donations, blah blah blah, and a request for the adoption of a five-year-old girl originally from Hayland. They haven't processed the papers yet. They are waiting for your mother or mates to come and process the papers," Anthony reported, and I wondered if blah blah blah counted, but there was no point stressing it with Anthony. Blah blah

Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas To My Dear Readers And Co-Writers
I want to start by saying I'm truly sorry for the short chapters. It seems there are now "ideal word count limits" to adhere to. I deeply regret the prolonged silence, but I've been grappling with severe health issues lately, and I'm still in the throes of recovery. I couldn't bear to leave this book neglected for too long, so I pushed through to the end so you all could move on. I do hope to return with a new story soon, and hope you will all be there, but for now, I must concede and focus on recuperating. The silence weighs heavy on me, and I truly hope you enjoyed the story and its conclusion. This marks the final instalment in the DSOF series. Perhaps one day, I'll pen Eleanor's tale, but I'm hesitant to make any promises I may not be able to fulfil. Please bear with me, dear readers and co-writers, and know that I cherish each and every one of you dearly. I will miss you all immensely. I love you all.❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🤗🤗
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 199 To Our Forever Love
~Winter~ A year passed, and all the struggles were a distant memory. Now, we were hosting the gathering in the East, and Summer, Chelsea and I had gone over time. Chelsea was a new mother now. She and Ethan had wasted no time. They claimed each other and got married the next month. Normally, we all thought they would wait, but two months later, she was pregnant, and a lovely girl named Evangeline was the product. Evangeline was a beautiful blonde baby, and we all loved her. We were new moms ourselves, and Summer and I couldn't carry Evangeline as much as we would like. I had twins, and they were adorable. Both of them looked like Stepanovs, and I wondered if my genes ever stood a chance. My daughter's name was Michelle, and My son's name was Frederick. They were adorable, and I loved them so much. Summer had a son, and she and Sebastien named Him Leonardo after Sebasteins's father. He was cute and looked a lot like his grandfather, but he had green eyes like Summer. She w
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 198 Fated Or Not
Ethan I was nervous about seeing Chelsea. Although we said it wouldn't matter if we weren't fated, I didn't know why I was suddenly nervous. I had never cared for anyone the way I cared for her, and I knew it was the same for her. So I wondered why I was unwilling to see her tonight. Her eighteenth birthday was in a few hours, and I had promised to be the first person to see her, but my heart was beating fast. I had stayed away from the house all evening, avoiding her. She said she would spend the time with me, and Noah had confirmed that she was in our home. Though not showing, we found out after the wedding that Summer and Winter were pregnant, and they were very peckish, so Chelsea always brought them snacks. Although Summer and Winter had planned a party for her, it wasn't going to take place until the evening of her birthday. It had been torture waiting these months, and now it was finally time for me to make her mine. I never planned to be with anyone except for her, so
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 197 The Bluemoon Night (Lucland)
~Gemma~ It had finally come to this, and after the crowd and everyone had left, Lucas and I drove home from the estate. Although our wedding took place at the estate, I was now at Rivers, and my man was taking me home. How could I have tried to make it difficult for him? He was genuinely in love with me. Our union was embraced by both families, and Katalina was a thing of the past. The fact that nothing had ever transpired between her and Lucas made me relax. I didn't feel guilty one bit. Lucas had had some girlfriends, but he was mine now. He pulled me to his body in the back seat of the limo that was taking us home. Lucas crashed his lips on mine, drinking me in. Our wolves had claimed each other in the eyes of all and the moon. He was mine through and through. The moment the bond formed, I knew I had found my forever love. I kissed him. Every fibre of my being was burning with desire. I wanted him. My body craved him. He had made love to me severally since we returne
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 196 The Bluemoon Night
~Winter~ The day of the blue moon had finally arrived, and I was consumed with nerves like never before. I'd been down this road once, and it hadn't ended well. As I veiled my face, my eyes met Summer's, resplendent in her wedding attire. Her touch on my hand offered reassurance. "It won't be like last time, Winter. This is real," she whispered, her words calming my racing heart. I nodded, believing this time would be different. Noah's love was steadfast. Lady Amelia entered the tent, her eyes alight with happiness. In her hands were two ornate jewellery boxes, undoubtedly meant for us. "You both look stunning tonight," she beamed, her words touching my soul. Lady Amelia loved us as a mother would her child; she cherished us as much as her own sons, a rare bond that set her apart. Approaching me, she unveiled the contents of the box meant for my adornment. A breathtaking gold necklace adorned with sapphire stones and dazzling diamonds lay nestled within. It was a masterpiece. "I
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 195 The Hearing
~Noah~ Three weeks passed, and the dust finally settled when the fugitives were apprehended by an angry mob of people eager to prove to their monarch that they were sorry for allowing themselves to be used and deceived into hindering progress. They had killed Kane and Ramos, leaving Gavin and Moses. I could bet that the only reason why they left Gavin and Moses, judging by the state they were in when they brought them, was because they wanted to deliver them to the authorities. They were battered, and silver was clamped on their wrist. I wished I had witnessed the mog action. Some parts of it were in the news. With the way the people surrounded them. They had no choice. It was a battle lost before it started. They had sprayed them silver dust to incapacitate them and then beat Kane and Ramos to death while they chained Gavin and Moses for judgment. I guess the King's words, coupled with my father's words and show of disappointment, got to them. Indeed, they had unknowingly helped
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 194 Won't Let You Slip
~Anthony~ My wolf was urging me to bridge the gap and assert our claim, but I remained dumbfounded. Frankly, I never imagined it would happen, especially not with Aspen. Here I was, enamoured with Chelsea, even competing with Ethan for her attention, when all along, it was Aspen who held my heart. Was Aspen the catalyst for my feelings for Chelsea? I realised I often encountered her before seeing Chelsea, yet I was too preoccupied with Chelsea to consider Aspen. I remember my first time at the orphanage; she was the one at the door greeting us, and she was particularly nice to me. On the second occasion, I went there, I ended up spending time with her. She opened up to me, telling me what she wouldn't dare tell anyone. The bond had been rearing its head, and I was too stubborn to realise it. She was the one who came to celebrate the victory with me when I was feeling lonely. It was her all along. Fate threw me her way severally and put her in my face, but my desires did not allo
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 193 Going home
~Anthony~ I waited for Aspen to pack her belongings in the evening so we could leave. I was going to leave the next day, as I had told Ethan, but my father had urged me to leave immediately. Everyone had gone back home, so waiting was pointless. Luis was around, though, and he planned to leave the next day. I was the only one still in Mountain, so I could understand when my parents asked me to go home. I escorted Aspen to her father's house so she could pack her belongings, and I went there with warriors just in case the man was being funny. I knew this was the right thing for her. If she stayed there any longer, she would end up dead. One day, he would take it too far and leave the silver on her a little too long for her body to recover. I had no obligations towards her, but I could not ignore her cry for help. Kirill was outside, and he looked at me, angry and powerless. He knew it was over. I was a lord so there was nothing he could do but just stew in his anger. "You c
Wild Heart, Untamed Alphas 192 Homecoming
~Leo~ As we made our way there, Ethan and Sebastian, accompanied by Summer and another girl who seemed to share the same origins as Summer and Winter, clung to Ethan. The girl wore a t-shirt with the words "Victory: because Adulthood is overrated" printed on it. Seeing how the girl and Ethan clung to each other, I knew they were together. They walked to me quickly, and Summer let go of Sebastian and hugged Amelia tightly. "We missed you; we were worried and scared," She confessed, and Amelia rubbed her back lovingly as a mother would hug her child. "I heard you fought well, Luna," she teased Summer, and Summer broke the hug with tears in her eyes. She was overjoyed to see us. She hugged me, too, but she didn't say anything. I looked at Ethan, and he had a straight face, but I could tell he was hiding his emotions. Amelia pulled him to a hug. "I am so proud of you, son," She said, and he held on to her; his hands shook, and I could tell he had feared the worst. Breaking the hug,
