“Again!” I shouted.
The group of young up-and-coming warriors in front of me groaned as they stood once more and faced their partner’s, getting back into their first stance.
“Remember! Legs braced apart, but not too far or you’ll be an easy take down.” I pointed to a boy in the back with long blue hair pulled back into a ponytail at the nape of his neck. “Yes, I am talking about you Shrouder!” The rest of the teenagers laughed but sobered quickly, getting in stance.
“First position!” I hollered. Walking around and in between the young wolves, watching them carefully, calculating their every move. “Nice stance Leena.” I said as I passed a particularly young girl with her pink hair in pigtails. Her face lit up with a smile at the praise.
“Second position!” I yelled, watching as they shifted towards each other. “Good. Third position and swing into fourth!” The pre-teens moved at each ot

I spent the next 7 days with Neil and Galden. Doing all the things I never got to do with them. We went to the beach, ran through a field of wildflowers, danced naked in a river, and even just sat around cuddling and watching movies for hours. It was my heaven on Earth, and I never wanted to give it up. But like all good things, it had to come to an end. As the doctor began the process of waking me up, I had clung to Galden and Neil, begging them not to go. I did not want to lose them again, but they were calm and just smiled sadly back at me, brushing my hair with their hands, and kissing my forehead and cheeks. "You will be fine Wolfy. No tears now, you already got more time with us then you would have. Be thankful of what we have had." Galden had said softly, pulling my face up to meet his and placing a sweet, loving kiss on my lips, before wiping the tears from my face
"Have you ever wondered what it's like to fly?" I asked quietly, watching as the clouds and birds floated across the blue sky above us. A bird was the first animal noise I had heard when Sapphire had broken us out of my in-ground prison, I had been fascinated with them since, but had fallen in love with them the moment I learned that they could fly. Could you imagine? Being able to fly away from your problems? Never having to look back. "Except your pain is in you, you can't fly away from that." My inner voice, Sapphire, whispered to me, and of course she was right. But right or not, I push her back down, shoving her observations away, and becoming what the world now sees me as. The Dark Beta of Dark Forest pack. A little on the nose if I do say so myself, but I did not give myself the nickname. "I imagine when we run, the air flying through our fur, it's similar to flying." Link answered thoughtfully from the
Julien was at the front door when we walked up, already holding it open for the two of us to slip through. As we passed Lila smiled at him, but his eyes were trained on me. He bowed his head slightly in respect, a sexy smirk on his lips. "Lila, Beta." When we had passed him and walked into the lobby Julien followed us in, staying a distance behind us as we made our way to the check in desk where the rest of our pack members waited for us. Lila moved her head closer to mine and whispered softly "Hottie bodyguard has a thing for you. You jumped him yet?" I rolled my eyes, Lila's mind was sex 24/7, and it drove her crazy that I still had not engaged in that particular activity. Not that I was avoiding it, but as Beta I had no time to socialize outside of training and I refused to form such a relationship with anyone I was training. "You refuse to form a relationship with anyone period. Besides the Alpha and his fa
"Adora?" A voice filled my mind. But that was impossible, the only time someone could mind-link me was when I initiated the connection. "Adora? It's you, isn't it? I can see the shock on your face. You're Adora!" I blinked my eyes and shook my head in confusion. Registering Lila walking up beside me did not even draw my full attention. Instead, I turned and stared at Alaric again. This time my wide eyes met an even wider gaze. "I knew it! No one can look that much like another person and not be related!" Alaric stated triumphantly, you would think he just uncovered the mystery of the century. "Wait, what?" Fenris asked in confusion, completely unsure as to what was going on now. "What do you mean?" "She can hear me through mind link, only pack members can do that." Alaric said confidently, his eyes flicking to Fenris as he answered his question before looking straight back
“You.” That was all I managed to breath out before Julien's lips were crushing down on my own, his fingers thrust into my hair and wound around my head, holding me there for his excitingly bruising kiss. When he pulled back to feather kisses down my jaw and neck I gasped for air, shuddering at the rush of heat his touch sent through my body. My eyelids fluttered closed, head rolled back, giving him perfect access to the sensitive skin of my throat, each kiss pulling a soft moan from my parted lips. His hands left my hair and I growled softly at the loss of contact, but he chuckled as he wrapped his arms around my hips and ass, pulling me tighter to him. "Don't worry Beta, I won't stop unless you ask me." He whispered against my lips before tasting them again, his tongue slipped along the seam and I opened my mouth welcoming the intrusion, my own tongue flicking forward to duel. My legs wrapped around his waist on i
"We can't continue to sit back and do nothing! We must stand and fight, and this can’t be done by any one pack, we need to band together!” Alpha Lee stood before the summit council slamming his fist on the large round table we were all sitting at, each leader that came to the summit got a seat at the colossal wooden table while supporting pack members were stationed behind them sitting and listening. Alpha Henry had been clear that I was representing him at this summit, there for Fenris stood behind me, listening and tapping me on the shoulder when he wanted to link and discuss a certain topic. Thankfully being left from the table did not make him bitter. We had been in here for half the day already and so far, the Alpha's and Betas were split 50/50, half wanting to come together and take Genesis down once and for all, half in agreement that it was up to the individual packs to protect themselves. "You only t
"Fenris, what the hell do I do?" I mind linked him, stepping back from the Alpha's whose stares were all centered on me. Being just a powerful she-wolf was enough to make me a viable non-fated mate to most Alphas, add in a claim to the second most powerful pack in the world and I knew many here would attempt to get their hands on me at any cost. "Run Evangeline, we got your back!" Fenris shouted through link, seconds before he, Julien, Lila, and Link surrounded me. I looked down at Alaric, my command had worn off and he was now standing, staring around him, clearly not having expected what was about to happen. "You idiot." I said to him with disdain, his eyes snapped to mine, and I saw regret shinning there. "I'll be lucky to get out of this alive, much less unmated against my will!" "I didn't mean to, I didn't think-” Alaric’s voice sounded nervous in my mind as he look
"Self-entitled royal fucking pricks is what they are! Just because they got that extra pound of flesh hanging between their legs, they think they run the entire fucking world. Well I have a news flash for them! You're going to beat their ass’s and make a stand for all women." Lila was ranting, pacing back and forth in our room as she fumed at the audacity of the drama that had unfolded downstairs. "Being a little generous there don't ya think?" I chuckled, grinning at her as she turned and looked at me like I was crazy. "What? What are you even talking about Eva?" She asked in exasperation as she threw her hands on her hips and stared at me, waiting for my answer. "You said pound of flesh, I feel like that's a little generous. Most of those men have Napoleon complexes and every one of them are over 6ft, so it stands to reason something else may be short instead." I answered, keeping a straight face as Lila's jaw dr
