Zeno Something about waking up in an empty hospital room doesn't sit well with me. Alright, as empty as it can be with me and the strange medical equipment attached to me. What I mean is that there are no doctors, nurses and, worst of all, no Nero.I never wanted this marriage, this damn union in the first place, but Nero makes me feel safe. He makes me feel like I matter, and he wants to protect me at all costs. My whole life, all I can recall is my father repeating that Alphas don't cry, they don't break, and they don't feel hurt by the actions of others, yet I do. I want someone to care for me and see me for who I am, not the title I carry. I didn't think of the man being the Rogue Alpha; hell, never in a million years, but life is full of surprises. I know I willingly involved myself in an intimate act with Nero, so that could be seen as a hint of feelings, but come on, can you blame a guy?First of all, I've always had a thing for bigger men, but finding one is a pain in the
Alpha HadesThat evening, I took Zeno to the hospital, and to my relief, he didn't wake up or even stir in my arms. After getting him a room to my liking and assigning the best doctors and nurses to take care of him, I began to wonder why my wife didn't move. Thank the Moon Goddess, the doctor was able to explain everything. Since my Zeno had suffered a severe blow, his mind and body were apparently in a state similar to hibernation. It's something that happens to injured wolves, even to Alphas. I insisted on staying close to him, and I did for two days, but soon enough, it became clear that he needed more time to heal. There's a possibility that Zeno will wake up before he's fully recovered, but only time will tell. Since I couldn't just sit around and wait, I decided to focus on pack work, but even that couldn't distract me from thoughts of the man in the hospital. I kept visiting his room every hour, but after the third day, Damon noticed how restless I was and started followi
Zeno Before I have enough time to regain my senses and he can end the call for good, I scream at my father: "Attacking? What the hell do you mean by saying there's an attack on the pack and our people? Father, are you sure this is really happening? We have a damn deal!" No, this can't be happening. And not just because it goes against everything we wrote down on the paper before we got married. I got to know Nero; he's a man of his word. There's no way he'd attack innocent people. Also, why should he? Since we're legally married, he has as much power over the pack as I do and vice versa over me and his pack. No, there's no such thing as his or mine anymore; I'm making a fool of myself, everything is ours. Nero wouldn't put the new addition to his people in danger. Everyone can keep on shouting that he's a monster, a shameless and vile man, but I know he is anything but. My father sucks in a sharp breath. I know this action better than he thinks- it's the breath he's sucking in
Alpha HadesAfter checking up on Zeno, I left feeling both down and somewhat happy. It's a pity that he's still asleep and I don't get a chance to kiss him goodbye, but it's nice to see that he's doing better. This whole thing with emotions and feelings is so goddamn confusing. I can't decide which one I want more- to hold my wife and protect him until the end of my days or to fuck him until he begs me to stop and would feel me every time he sits down for weeks. *Get your mind out of the gutter, you freak,* Silas growls from the depths of my mind. Yeah, as if he's any better than me. That damn wolf turns into a puddle of liquid heart eyes and compliments every time we're near Zeno, and his ideas about spending a night with him are way worse than mine. Have you seen how pretty our wife is? How do you think he would agree to this or that? Is our wife a virgin? I hope so because no other man has the right to touch him the way we would. You know what? It doesn't matter; even if there
Alpha HadesI don't regret letting Damon run around looking like a whole circus. Well, at least not anymore. He's put so many smiles on our warriors' faces with that outfit alone, but when he adds his corny jokes, it's a jackpot. Although, in other circumstances, we'd have walked to the territory in our wolf forms, this time, we chose to travel by cars. It wasn't a decision I was happy about, but as my injuries won't heal like they normally would, I'm forced to slow down a little. Besides, it's not that hard to notice a huge pack of wolves approaching territory, so cars are the most incognito form of travel at the moment. I'd rather choke on my own tail than give old Alpha Silver a heads-up about our arrival. On the way there, everyone was in high spirits, but as we approached the Silver Moons, I got this strange feeling that I couldn't shake off, and many of my warriors noticed how restless I was becoming. And not without reason, I may add, because as soon as we got close enough
Alpha Hades As the pack of rogues near us, we stand in front of our warriors, our paws digging into the ground, ready to pounce. Silas prefers to stay behind, he's the dramatic entry type of guy, but on occasions like this, we both agree our place is in front of our pack. This way, we can assess the danger levels and ensure no one will get past us. *Take out the biggest, scariest fucked you can see,* Silas repeats the words like a mantra. It's a strategy he keeps close to his heart- while our pack deals with the troops, we get rid of the actual source of danger. *Break their bones, brother,* I whisper to my wolf. *But never ours,* Silas adds, finishing our secret war cry. One after another, the rogues leave the forest and charge right at us. *This is a trap!* I growl at Silas. It's clear someone set us up, and something tells me it's the doing of the old Silver. My wolf shifts his weight, lowering the front of his body closer to the ground. He'll take off in just a few s
Zeno I all but snap my head to the side. My father should be really careful about the things he says in front of me. Especially about my husband. I'm no longer the child he could control or lie to. I am a grown man, fully capable of making my own decisions and judging the situations before my eyes. Besides, wasn't he the one who needed the deal? Did he really think he could toss and pull me around as if I were a toy of some sort?Hell to the no. As I glare at my father, I notice beads of sweat running down his neck. Holy mother of the Moon Goddess, he's actually lying. Since he refuses to look in my direction, even for as much as giving me one of those stupidly stern looks of his, I clear my throat and look back at Nero. He's covered in blood and doesn't look that good, but at least the blood doesn't seem to be his, so that much appears to be fine. "He's lying, isn't he?" I ask him as I point my finger at my father. Nero's pack members gasp at the same time as my father does. My
Alpha HadesNo words could ever describe how damn proud I am of my Zeno. He didn't only accept me as his husband and treat me as one, but he finally found it in him to stand up against his father's tyrant ways. I'm not sure if he will act the same way as soon as his father gets out of the picture, but for the time being, I will take whatever I can get. It's not every day when he has a chance to heart and kisses me out of the blue. If our relationship progresses like this, soon enough, I could finally take him to bed and mark Zeno as mine forever. Besides, all of my men are supportive of our relationship, so if we go back home, the last thing my wife has to worry about is any sort of judgement. People in my pack don't care about anything for as long as we can be happy. There's no such thing as shaming same-sex partners or attempts to stay in one's way. I proud my pack for being free, understanding and accepting. On top of that, Damon has been calling our pack a queer paradise, an
