All Chapters of Alpha of the Dead: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

(Camilla’s P.O.V) After Siobhan left last night, I knew things weren’t going to go well between her and Tiernan, and I was proven right when she got back to the hotel and didn’t bother to close her door as she sobbed into the blankets. I laid down next to her, holding her, trying to soothe her but I knew, nothing and no one except her mate would be able to soothe this ache. This was the last thing we needed when we are trying to investigate these kidnappings, even though we had all of the information we needed to find these children, this was a wrench in the investigation that we didn’t need. I spent the night holding her as she cried, and when she did finally fall asleep, she was having nightmares. Artis came into the room at one point to see if I wanted to switch places so that I could sleep, but I declined. When the sunlight filtered into the room, I knew it was just the beginning of a very long day. A day that Siobhan wouldn’t be a part of, and neither would one of us

(Siobhan’s P.O.V) With me being off the case at this point, I did the only rational thing a girl could do when her heart was broken; watch true crime documentaries, eat ice cream, and drink wine. Camilla bought us several pints of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream from the grocery store down the street from the hotel and we were sitting in my room when we heard a knock. At first, I thought it was the TV, but the knock sounded again, louder, and more urgent this time. Camilla got up from the bed and walked to the door, peeking through the peephole—safety first people! She turns to me, eyes wide with worry and a hint of fear. “Who is it?” I ask with my mouth full of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. “Umm, it’s your brother.” She murmurs. “Si! I know you’re in there! Open the damn door!” He shouts, banging on the door again. “Let him in.” I sigh. Camilla opens the door and not only is Patrick there, but Brian is as well. “What do you guys want?” I ask.

***TRIGGER WARNING*** (Siobhan’s P.O.V) I couldn’t get out of that conference room fast enough; I couldn’t stand being around his scent anymore. It made my chest ache more and made Tala whimper louder than she already was. I tried shifting, but Tala refused to come forward…she hated me now. So, I just ran. I ran until my lungs burned and my legs ached. The forest was nothing but a blur around me, branches catching on my clothes causing rips in my shirt and sweats. The forest was silent as I ran further in, no birds cawing, no leaves rustling, no chatter of the squirrels. I came to a stop at a small stream near the borders of the pack lands, needing water and to catch my breath. Cupping my hands in the water, I bring them to my face and drink, the cold water refreshing against my sore throat. Once I’ve had my fill, I sit on the banks of the stream contemplating everything I’ve ever done regarding Tiernan. From the time that we were children, I would follow him and my brot

(Brian’s P.O.V) I couldn’t believe that Siobhan had been attacked on pack lands and possibly by a pack member. It wouldn’t shock me if Luther was the one who did this, my mate, Jessica, has always been uncomfortable with him. She had told me of run-ins she had had with him where he had made comments or tried to touch her. I could hardly keep my anger in check and my wolf, Phoenix, was itching to take over. I make it to the front gate and see Luther standing around with the other guards, making idle chit-chat. “Luther!” I boomed out. “What’s up Bri? You need something?” He asks. When I get close enough, I can smell Siobhan all over him, that makes Phoenix rage against the confines of my mind. LET ME THE FUCK OUT!! No! HE HURT OUR SISTER! We need to take him to the dungeons; we can kill him after we torture him. Phoenix huffs, but his low growls reverberate in my mind. “You are being arrested for assault on Siobhan Williams, I’m here to take

***TRIGGER WARNING***(Brian’s P.O.V)“Jessica! I told you to wait at the hospital!” I yell at my mate, who is standing in front of me…in the dungeons.“Hmm, nope! I’m here for the fun!” She says, with a giggle. She’s one of our best female warriors but she was pissing me off by being here instead of sitting her pretty little ass at home. Her small baby bump was all the evidence someone needed to see, to understand that she shouldn’t be here. Tiernan’s brother, Jacob, and his mate are expecting their first child too. Jessica and Harlow are “pregnancy buddies” and are due within weeks of one another.“Go back home. Think about the pup, go visit Harlow or something but you need to leave.” I say, grabbing her hand and moving her towards the door of the dungeons.“Not happening. Siobhan is my sister, and I need to be here for this when she can’t.” Jessica and Siobhan had never met. I’m not even sure if Siobhan knows that she’s going to be an aunt. I just sighed and
