Good Ole Boys PackLeesburg, Georgia“Lucious Avery, do you fully understand what it is to serve a pack? Do you vow to always place the pack before your personal needs? Do you swear to protect and defend your pack until your dying breath is called for?” Cullen asked Valic as he kneeled before him and Ivory. Cullen had always known Lucious was born of Alpha blood. But instead of leading a pack, he joined the Council after his mate was killed. He started as part of the Straw Hat Pack, but Luffy was a stronger Alpha and Valic settled as a strong Beta.“I do understand and vow my blood and life to protect my pack and provide shelter, food, and security. I pledge my plurality to them and the Alpha Council.” Valic said with deep sincerity.Aaron walked to Cullen and offered a ceremonial blade. Pulling it across his palm he extended it to Lucious. Lucious mimicked the motion and the two men joined hands as Valic stood. The circle of stones buzzed and hummed as ancient magic soared

Piddle ParkDry Ridge, KentuckyUnknown POV“No sir, I understand.” He spoke into the phone as he continued to watch the farm. He glanced at his wrist noting the time, just six minutes past noon. He had been in his perch for nearly six hours and was considering lunch. “If there is any change, I will send word. As far as I can tell the beasts are gathering here. I counted over a dozen wolves and a few vamps. I can’t say for certain what the others are but I know they aren't human.”“... Did you read the reports coming out of Kettering? Now is not the time to be caught with your pants down…”He nodded his head a few times as he listened. “No, I won’t let my guard down. And yes I read the report about Kettering. Is there any contact from Salem or Timothy?”“... Not yet. But I know they got away. I am confident they are hunting the bitch…”When he heard ‘bitch’ an image of Hope Howard flooded his mind. He had met Gunny Mill in Afghanistan several years ago after an IED exploded, wounding

Honeysuckle RV Park Dry Ridge, Kentucky Sachiko let Sean talk her into staying for the afternoon. After eating their takeout, Sean asked her to go for a walk, which she agreed to. Sean needed information, though pillow talk was one way to get it, an actually invested friend was another. Sean would become Sachi’s friend. “I can tell by your accent that you are not from around here. I spent time near Gorgan, Iran a long time ago. Your accent reminds me of the nomads outside of there.” Sean said, leaning down to pick a wildflower. He stepped closer and placed it behind her ear. “I see your ears are just as talented as your tongue.” Sachiko grinned and raised her brows as her cheeks flushed. “But yes, I was raised with a nomadic uncle. My parents died when I was a baby.” Sachi rarely spoke of her parents. Her mom was born in Malaysia, and her father in Iran. They decided to raise their family in his ancestral homeland. It was a shame that humans had to hunt tigers to extinction in tha

Griffin ‘Divos’ Hasapis (Mythical Butcher) let his mind drift back to another life as he watched the fighters sparring in the ring. He couldn’t believe how training had changed over the centuries. ~~~ The sun was hot that day, and he could feel it on his flesh. The leather harness that was his 'armor' was nearly non-existent. It didn't matter to Divos as long as he could feel himself move, and could feel the sand beneath his booted feet. Divos could hear the roaring of the surrounding crowds. He was a large beast. His waist was the size of a tree trunk, and he stood nearly two heads taller than most of the other fighters in the arena. It was his first time in battle since he was captured and enslaved. There were three others on his team who would soon find out they were not needed. With one swing of his massive ax, the head of an enemy was cleaved in two, spilling brain matter over the arena sands. Divos could feel his heart thundering in his chest as he moved closer to a smaller ma

Straw Hat PackTemporary HomeDry Ridge, Kentucky Alpha Jade Spencer was sitting in the small office browsing a document on her laptop. Without looking, Jade reached for a cup of coffee that Denny had placed on the desk an hour ago. As Luffy sipped, an expression of disdain spread across her face. “Yuck,” she quickly spat the offending drink back into the mug. “What the heck!”“Denny, my love, did you change my coffee?” Luffy asked through the mind link.Denny Fredrick, her fated mate, was in the kitchen with Chef. Leo ‘Chef’ Robin was the pack Beta in charge of supplies. He recently ordered a new coffee bean and was currently grinding enough beans for a fresh pot of coffee. Denny’s eyes glazed over, and a smile crawled over his face. It had been over an hour since he dropped off the coffee.“It took you long enough, baby. But yes, Chef has a new blend and I have to say it is good when it's hot.” Denny walked to the pantry, pulling out a new package of Oreo cookies. Jade loved dipping
