All Chapters of Mated to the Alpha of the South: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

  Ryker I decided to swing by the lodge to change clothes when I glanced down at the stains marring my once white shirt, after looking for something to distract me from my mate's luscious legs disappearing behind the closed door, that was. White really wasn't a good color to wear around a one-year-old, I would have to remember that in the future. I mind linked with Remus while I prowled through the trees in the general direction of my residence, though it hardly felt like home without my mate and daughter there. I could not help but worry the elders would attempt to replicate what had occurred 13 years ago, and I refused to leave my family without some sort of protection in my absence, Ronnie's wrath be damned if she ever found out. I intended to join the patrol groups with my newly unfettered time, but I needed to pick up the equipment for Mari first and foremost. My wolf's keen senses monitored my environs as I

Veronica We spent a couple of hours, meandering around town and greeting all the guests, but we also used that time to covertly connect with our pack through mind link about what was coming.  Ryker was worried about the elders being tipped off that we were aware of their plan, and I couldn’t say I blamed him after all the shit they had already thrown our way.  It was different at first, getting used to being able to talk with the entire pack, in addition to my family, without ever opening my lips. I didn’t know that was something I was capable of until Ryker told me.  It took some adjusting, but I found I reveled in the newfound assets I had acquired when Ryker and I had conclusively claimed each other a few nights ago, officially making me the luna. 

Ryker I was dragging my ass the following morning, getting up and out the door before the birds had begun chirping for the day was a feat in and of itself for me. I had stayed up too late indulging in the delights my mate had to offer, not that I regretted a single second of my time spent in heaven between her shapely thighs. Never mind the tiny detail it was too damn early to be up anyway. I was not a morning person, and these crack of dawn patrols were speedily becoming the bane of my existence.  I exited the house under the cover of darkness, making my way to the tree line nearby since I had opted to leave through the back door.  I shifted into my wolf as I broke free of the thick undergrowth, pausing to let my senses range over this neck of the woods before I gave him free r

Ryker I had been sorely tempted to swing by the clinic, despite being assured my help was not needed by my mate and beta. My wolf had been completely on board with the idea, which told me I should probably refrain from acting on that particular thought. I knew it wouldn’t help my case with Remus already butting in on Ronnie’s behalf anyhow. With that being settled, I ignored my wolf’s internal grumbling and trudged the short distance to the rec center. I loved seeing the jubilant expressions lighting up the faces of the plentiful people I passed on my walk. It had been a long time since I had seen so many smiles adorning the faces of a crowd, let alone here in my home territory, and I tried to soak in the ambience before it disappeared with the majority of my pack tonight. I felt my lips tip up into a half-smile of my own when I entered the building and scanned the various faces present for Asher’s. However, someone el

Veronica I felt relief flood my system as I went over the conscious male’s vitals after clearing up his confusion. I had gotten Luke to tell me his name, and he had been conscious for a few minutes before he succumbed to the wolfsbane once more. I hadn’t been positive I would be able to help them with what Seth had done, but I was surprisingly treading water in that regard it appeared. I am not one hundred percent sure what he did outside of the obvious, but I had my speculations. Both wolves had been displaying worsened symptoms of wolfsbane poisoning from when I first examined them yesterday. Their wounds had begun to mend before Seth had administered the toxin from what I could tell, but I wasn’t sure which method or dose he had chosen. Be that as it may, I seemed to have landed on a mixture of herbs that was helping the wolves fight against whatever concoction Seth had created, but I would need to retrieve more chamomile from the clinic in order to keep treating the males and k
