The moment our crowns were placed on our heads, I felt like everything was finally as it should be.I had a wonderful mate, two pups growing in my belly, and I would be able to continue my parents legacy. I conquered evil and made sure my people would remain safe.I wasn’t naive enough to believe no

I was standing at the end of the aisle in front of the thrones, waiting in anticipation for Raina. The second the large double doors opened and everyone stood up, all breath left my lungs.She looked absolutely stunning. The most beautiful thing in the entire world.Her dark blue dress hugged her cu

Today was the day I’ve been waiting my entire life for.My crowning ceremony.We’ve officially been living in the Full Moon pack for three weeks. It took a while to get everyone in their housing and for people to find jobs and get settled but everything was finally done and it was time for me to tak

One Month LaterWe were finally moving to the Full Moon pack.The last month had been spent traveling back and forth. We went to the Royal Pack as soon as our funerals were over so Raina could announce to them she was still alive. There was a lot of work that had to be done there with removing anyon

I had never been more thankful to be alive.I was minutes from losing everything I’d ever wanted in life and I’ll spend the rest of it thanking Selene for giving us a chance to live.She watched the rogues leave, so much sadness coming from her own brilliant aura. It had to be hard to watch your chi

I could feel Xander and Storm slowly fading away. Our bond was becoming weaker and as much as I loved that Selene had shown, I needed to save my mate. I was terrified the blood loss would become too much to come back from if I didn’t get him help.The only problem was, I was fading too.I only praye

The second I feel my brothers enter the packhouse after the rogue attack I release the breath I’ve been holding since they walked out those doors. I normally don’t mind being left behind, knowing the two of them are more than capable, but this time, it took a lot for me to stay behind.Don’t ask me why because I’m trying not to think about it too closely.It only takes a few minutes before they’re entering the alpha office where I’ve been sitting and waiting for them to come back. I scan them from head to toe, both injury free but there’s a heaviness settling on their shoulders I’m not used to.“What happened,” are the first words out of my mouth.Draco grimaces and the tension that just left me is back.They both take a seat across from the desk I’m sitting behind, practically collapsing into the chairs. Thank the goddess they’re sturdy and able to handle the weight of two large men who are all muscle.Ryder is the first to speak. “There were only twelve and most were taken care of b

Allowing myself to get distracted was stupid but I couldn’t help myself.Alanna in wolf form is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, second to seeing her as a human in all her pale skin and silver hair glory. While I’m surprised by how much I love the way she looks, it's her attitude that just gets me. She’s pure fire and seeing her in battle just reinforces that.She's fast, lethal, and shows no mercy. The dead rogues at her feet are proof of that.The fight was quick and mainly painless. We didn’t lose any warriors but not all came out unscathed. I see wounds healing as fast as they can. I look over at Alanna, who is currently speaking with Kace, and notice she’s clear of any marks. The oversized shirt she’s wearing is very distracting.The rogues that so stupidly attacked are now all dead, piled into a mountain of flesh and bone ready to be set ablaze. A warrior is counting, making sure all twelve bodies are accounted for. The wrinkle between his brow has me worried.“Is there

Ryder and I race out of the packhouse, leaving Hunt behind. I could tell he really wanted to come, which is unlike him, but we decided one of us had to stay back in case something happened. If Ryder and I were hurt or killed, at least one of us would still be around to run the pack.Hunt is always our obvious choice since he’s the brains behind pack operations so I’m pretty surprised by how badly he wanted to come with us today. He’s a good fighter but his brain is more important than his brawn.That’s what Ryder and I are for. We’re the fighters.Kace made sure to alert Alanna that rogues were coming in her direction. After watching her fight Derrick, the giant warrior, I know not to worry about her but for some odd reason, I still am. What if they get far enough and ambush her while she’s all alone?I don’t like the thought of that so I shift into my wolf form and push harder.A mindlink from Kace comes through. “Nina is also at Alanna’s house but Alanna left her locked in and told

My brothers and I have spent the past few days in either meetings about the pack or looking for the book Emmett told us about. So far, the meetings have gone well. As for the book? No luck.This coming full moon in a week's time, all three of us plan to travel back to Bloodstone for the celebration then next month, we’ll combine the two packs and celebrate together and hopefully members from both will find mates.If it weren’t for inviting Alpha Keene from the Nightshade pack and his members to have a party and see if any of our people were mates, I’d stay here.I’m a little sad to be leaving for this full moon. I’ve been ready for a mate for a while now and am really looking forward to meeting her but I keep reminding myself that if she really is here, then I can wait one more month.What’s a month in the face of our whole lives?I’ve met most of the women in the pack but I haven’t really felt much of a connection to any of them and that worries me. I know the mate bond doesn’t click

“Mates?” I croak, then clear my throat. “I uh… guess that’ll be good for some people.”She cocks her head, eyeing me warily. “You don’t sound too excited about that.”I scoff. “Why should I be? Even if I did find a mate, they’d just reject me on the spot anyway.” I level her with a look as I cross my arms across my chest. “We’ve talked about this before. You know a mate just isn’t for me.”I’ve been dreading the idea of a mate since I learned what they are and I realized how my pack looked at me. I know whoever is unlucky enough to be tied to me will reject me without a second thought to our bond. I’ve been lucky so far, remaining mateless, but I know it’s only a matter of time before I’m faced with the heart breaking pain of a mate bond breaking.Nina’s face falls and I hate the look of pity on it. “Alanna,” she says softly. “You don’t know that. They say the mate bond is really strong. I’m sure your mate will at least give you a chance.”I shake my head. “I don’t want someone to onl

It’s been three days since the tournament and I’ve managed to avoid everyone, even the triplet alphas, and it feels like nothing short of a miracle. I’ve had a few mindlinks from Kace regarding pack business and my new training level but that’s about it.Top tier level. Color me shocked.I already knew I’d be placed on the highest team with my performance against Derrick. I’ve always been a good fighter, taking to it naturally the moment I was finally allowed to begin training. I’ll never be the strongest but my smaller human stature and speed make me a tough opponent.Then there’s my wolf which the triplets haven’t even seen yet. She’s a bloodthirsty girl who refuses to quit. We may have ice shooting from us without permission but we’ve got fiery personalities.As for the pack business, training is set to begin tomorrow and I’m dreading it. While I’ve been feeling better since my little explosion in the forest, I’m still on edge just endlessly worrying about what to expect when I set
