Book 2 Chapter 17
Caleb’s Point of View
My eyes start to tear up from strain as I set the final documents for the night aside. I need to go to bed, everyone arrives tomorrow. On one hand I am excited to see Marcus. We have not been able to get together as often this year, and I miss his friendship. I shrug mentally noting that he and I both have mates now and that changes things.
A pang of guilt shoots through me as I think of my mate. For the past week I have been working very hard to ensure that this upcoming meeting runs smoothly. It is even more important now that I know that I am expected to host the Mabon Ball this year. Working long hours has not left much time for Daphne and I to sort out our issues. In an ironic twist with the way I have been working it is almost as if I am the one avoiding her.
Of course, this is purely coincidence. Yes, Daphne hurt me deeply, and I feel that we need to strengthen our bond. She still does not trust me fully, and I

Daphne’s Point of ViewI wake up tangled in Caleb’s arms. Last night was extremely emotional, but oddly enough I feel like we both healed a little last night. I slowly start to remove myself from Caleb’s grasp, not because I want to get away from him, but I have an appointment with Dr. Hollis this morning.I have been having some anxiety and stress over today. There will be several visiting Alphas and their Lunas, and some may bring additional family. I am not worried about the meetings that Caleb has to hold, I know that he has those covered. I am worried that I am going to say something wrong to the other Lunas, or somehow offend someone visiting.I slowly make my way quietly to the bathroom. I am hoping a good hot shower will loosen up some of my tight muscles and help me wake up for the day. I glance back at Caleb as I shut the door to the bathroom to ensure that he is asleep still.Stepping under the hot water bring

Daphne’s Point of ViewHannah could barely contain her excitement that the other packs were beginning to arrive. “Hannah why are you so excited? I think you have met most of these pack members before.” I was naturally curious.“I met Alpha Cole once when I was younger, but I do not remember much about him. I have never had the chance to meet Alpha Axle and rumor has it that he is gorgeous.” Hannah flashes me a mischievous smile.“Hannah you should not be worried about boys. When you are eighteen you will be able to find your mate. You should wait for him.” I remind her gently.“I know and I intend to. I just want to check out my possibilities. It is like being on a diet, but still looking at the dessert menu. I know that I am not going to order the yummy chocolate cake, but I can certainly look at it and appreciate all of its gloriousness.” She tells me with a laugh. I cannot stop from

Caleb’s Point of ViewWell, this is turning into such a lovely day, I think to myself sarcastically. I had already been anxious to see how Daphne was going to react to seeing Alpha Noah today. I had never considered the possibility that there was any potential for anyone to find a mate at this meeting. This was not a huge social gathering, nor a ball.Now I have a visiting Alpha that thinks Hannah is his mate. I have a ticked off Beta and his mate is acting like an overly ferocious momma bear. My mate is commanding people in a tone that is making Alpha’s bend to her will, and I have no idea how she is doing that. I have Hannah that seems both terrified and intrigued that Axle has declared she is his mate. Oh, and the really kicker to the wonderful assortment of problems I have a jealous guard, that is also another peculiar wolf. I feel a migraine coming on as I watch Brandon lead an Alpha into the warrior’s quarters. This meeting is f

Daphne’s Point of View Shortly after we left Caleb’s office, we were informed that more visitors were arriving. I quickly grabbed a bottle of water from the kitchen before once again joining my family on the front steps. While we patiently waited, I was lost in thought over everything that has happened. While I had been worried about saying something that would embarrass Caleb or the pack, I had never considered the possibility of our peculiar wolves being discovered. I had a newfound respect for Theo and Caleb for being able to hide them so effectively for so long. I was also worried about Hannah. Could Axle really be her mate? If he is does that mean that she would be leaving to live with him? I was not prepared to lose yet another friend. Although I know that we would still see each other on occasion I was not prepared for her to live so far away. I also worried and wondered how that would work with her peculiar abilities as well. Would she eventu

Daphne’s Point of ViewWith the arrival of the catering company there was a flurry of activity. Hannah, Theo, and Scarlett helped to get all the kids upstairs and settled into their rooms so that they could get washed up and changed for dinner. I think that Marcus and Lola were relieved that we agreed to take Isabella and the twins. We all understand that we need to be hush hush regarding the hybrid status of the kids.Hybrids are frowned upon in nearly every community, even more so than rogues. There is a natural distrust between wolves, witches, and vampires. For centuries we fought each other mercilessly. Unfortunately for witches they were often used as pawns for factions fighting each other. The legend says that the reason there are so few witches today, is due to the enslavement they faced back then. As with all things humans and technology progressed, and we all moved forward. With the ever-increasing threat of human exposure and experimen

Caleb’s Point of ViewI left Daphne, Scarlett, and Hannah to prepare for the dinner tonight. The catering company had arrived, and our guests had already been shown to their rooms. No amount of preparation could have prepared me for today. I am worried that this may be an utter disaster, and with everything already bogging Daphne down I worry how this will affect her. I am also worried about putting our peculiar wolves in danger, and now I have new pups that are special that will need to be protected as well. This stress is going to cause me to grow grey hair.I slip away to my office, hoping for a few moments of silence. It is not long before both Theo, and Marcus slip in. I pour us each a drink and we settle into the chairs to catch up a bit.“I meant to ask earlier but got caught up in the moment. Lola seems rather attached to the girl Maria that you found, are you guys planning on adopting her if you can not locate her pack?&rdqu

Caleb’s Point of ViewWords can not describe how proud of Daphne I am. Even with everything that we had going on, she had managed to pull off an elegant but cozy dinner for everyone. The catering company went out of their way to ensure that there was a large variety of food, and drinks available to our guests. Daphne and the girls had managed to turn our formal dining room into a lovely, decorated area for the dinner tonight. I was impressed to learn that she was the one that folded the linen napkins into origami swans. It was beautiful, and classically elegant. Walking into the room I quickly spotted her sipping a glass of wine talking to Scarlett, and Lola. My heart swelled looking at my beautiful mate.Daphne had chosen to wear a simple black cocktail dress tonight, with simple beading on the bodice, and a peek a book slit on the left leg. I swear that there was no woman that could outshine her radiant beauty. “We are lucky men, aren&rsq

Daphne’s Point of ViewI could have strangled Caleb for disappearing with the guys. While I would have been perfectly content to sit and talk with almost everyone at the table, I was not happy that Melissa and Heather were still here. For a few moments we had peace, all of the ladies were getting along, and it was nice.“This is boring we should go into the town and hit up the nightclub.” Heather’s nasally voice reached me.“Oh, a nightclub, that could be fun girls.” Lola was a free spirit, and this does seem like something up her alley.“We do have a rather early day tomorrow ladies, and I do not think that our men would find it a good idea to be out in the club so late. Heather since you are unmated perhaps, we could send a warrior with you and your packs Beta to the club instead?” I was relieved that Scarlett thought of a good solution. I would not be comfortable in a nightclub, especiall
