All Chapters of The Criminal's Alpha: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Jacke's POVWe would be lying through our fucking teeth if we said that what Alex had told us wasn't at least mildly concerning. I mean, it was one thing for an Archdemon to talk about fighting death, because we had danced that dance and came out on top simply because of Jake's will to live; Alex on the other hand, Alex wasn't like us, she was a werewolf and had an afterlife that was blissful waiting for her when her time came."Yo-you do realize what you just said, right?! This kind of thing is no joke to talk about, especially at a time and place like this.""Bold of you to assume I would lie to your face, Pup, if death comes knocking on my door expecting to take me away from you...he'll find nothing but a cornered animal waiting for a good fight. If there's one thing I've learned in my time on this rock we call home, nature always wins, and my Goddess knows my will to be with you. This road we walk isn't an easy one, but it is ours, and our path will show no fear for neither of us

Jack's POVI would be lying if I said I wasn't anxious for what was to come, I mean Jake not even a couple of hours ago was finally claimed, and yet our war was far from over. Alex and Jake said goodnight after cuddling for what seemed like years, but in reality, was just a couple of hours, and we got back in our truck before heading back home. We stopped by a gas station and picked up a couple of sodas, then as we got back in the car I started to bring Jake up to speed on the news from Lucy."So, Milo and Gloria, got out and are now in the wider world? What do we need to do then?""Lucifer's orders were to find and guide them, to have them join our family so that they don't just spontaneously destroy everything, Milo was stuck in the void for almost as long as I was before I met you. Lucifer fears that if we don't give them structure, something to believe in, a cause worth fighting for then they'll destroy everything in their path; I don't know about you, but I'm not willing to take

Jacke's POVBefore getting back in the car, Jake gave Milo the link to his music mix on YouTube just in case they wanted to listen to our kind of music, and then we fused and hit the road heading for home. They followed us surprisingly well, but we weren't too worried, one way or another we knew they'd be safe with us; As we continued down the road, we sent a message out to Jade and Derick to head back home, and that we had found Milo and Gloria and were heading home ourselves. 'Open Your Eyes' started playing on the radio, and we got a bad feeling, something had gone down and we were starting to get worried about it. Jake sent a message to Alex, "Make some time, and meet us at home, something's gone down and we don't like it. Not one bit," before I floored the gas and signaled to Milo to floor it too; We couldn't afford to get separated, it wasn't something we could afford to lose here, we opened a portal on the road to speed up and after they got in we closed it behind us as we arri

Jacke's POVAs we walked back towards the rubble, everyone seemed uneasy, it wasn't shocking, however; They had never truly met Jameson, nor Damien, my brothers of old brought back from ruination. We walked towards the rubble, Damien raising his right hand and bowing as a sign of goodwill and respect before continuing with us. We got to the rubble and if it weren't for the fact that this wasn't the first time that had happened, I might have broken down then and there. This was our home, our base of operations, but above all else, it was where Jake and I fell when we were sent here the first time. Jake's Coffin lied deep within the earth here, and we swore no matter how many times our home was destroyed, we would build it back stronger than before; There was a feeling of dread in the air as if all was lost, and nothing would matter anymore. Our family needed a reminder of why this place held so much importance to us, so Jake took a second and gave a brief but thorough speech."Nicki, d

Alex's POVTo say that my Pack was surprised by what I had said when I got back would be a massive understatement, essentially I had told them that we were going to pack up everything we could and move somewhere else. I brought up that Jacke had offered us trucks to move our stuff in, and if we needed protection we'd have anything we needed as this wasn't going to be a one-day deal, this would take a while, so of course, they were concerned."Alpha, we would never openly question your judgment, you've never led us astray before; But why are we doing this when Home is here?""Home is wherever we settle, for a long time, Home has been here because that's where our forefathers built this place. You don't see me asking you to destroy this place, do you? No, I'm simply asking that you all follow my orders, deconstructing the Home to be rebuilt somewhere else. Where Jacke lives was recently attacked and burned to the ground, it was destroyed and left to ruin, so instead of letting my mate s
