Sequel to Alpha Braddock - Book 2 I stand here frozen as thoughts run through my mind, it’s taken my parents years to track down the head of to the pedophile ring and now the top 3 suspects stand in front of me. All there leads led to 3 packs to this very lucrative pup abduction ring, selling them to the highest bidder to do with whatever they want.

view moreI stand here frozen as thoughts run through my mind, it’s taken my parents years to track down this disgusting person on top of this shit pile of pedophiles and now the top 3 suspects stand in front of me. The person that now heads this very lucrative pup/child abduction ring, selling pups/children to the highest bidder to do with whatever they want. My mother’s body adorns the scars of this sick and twisted world, each scar shows her strength and resilience to overcome what has happened to her. My wolf now whimpers in my head, “but he’s, our mate.”
I scoff, “if he’s the one that heads this up, I will kill him with our power, I will make him suffer as he has allowed countless children to suffer.”
My thoughts are interrupted by my Beta’s voice, “Alpha Abigail, are you alright.”
I shake my head, my black curls bouncing around me and a wicked smile crosses my face as I look out over the men that stand in front of me, “of course Beta Josh, let’s go meet our new business partners.”
I walk with purpose as I head down the stairs, my eyes rack over the tallest man standing with a female hanging off his arm, he’s taller than my father and bulkier with muscle, his long black hair is pulled back in a ponytail, he has high cheek bones, a chiseled jaw line that adorns black scruff. I refuse to look into his eyes and allow this bond to snap into place, he could be the monster and I won’t allow myself to falter over a bond.
I approach the men and steel myself for their touch as I extend my hand to each one, one of these men already disgust me, but which one is he?
Alpha Sebastian speaks first, "it's a pleasure to meet you Alpha Abigail, I'm Alpha Sebastian," he offers his hand, and I shake it, earning a low growl from the large Alpha in the middle. I arch a brow and look at the girl attached to his side, like an accessory. I roll my eyes inwardly at his blatant disrespect for her.
The Alpha on his other side extends his hand, "Alpha Terrance, nice to finally meet you in person Alpha Abigail.”
I took his hand and gave it a firm handshake, "pleasure is all mine, Alpha Terrance." My statement earns a low menacing growl from who I now know is Alpha Christov.
I stand with my legs slightly parted, my shoulders squared as I reach out my hand to this God like man, who now has a wide smile on his face, I feel his stare boring into me, but still refuse to look him in the eye. My voice doesn’t falter as I address him as the others, "and you must be Alpha Christov." My heart pounds and my wolf is ready to howl "MATE," at any second.
He gently removes the girl from his arm, looking at her kindly as she pouts. He grips my hand gently and sparks ignite, shooting up my arm, his baritone voice comes out silky with a heavy Russian accent as he lifts my hand to his lips, "the pleasure is all mine MATE," he kisses the back of my hand and immediately my knees feel weak.
I feel all eyes on me, and I can’t help but laugh as I remove my hand from his, my eyes go to the female standing next to him, I tilt my head to her, “and you are?”
She smiles sweetly at me as her arm hooks back to Alpha Christov’s, she looks up at him, “Sasha, Alpha Christov’s future Luna,” she nods at me.
I take a step back, my voice is steady and calm, “very well, shall we all go inside and get this venture in motion,” I turn and begin to walk up the stairs, “I will have all the guards and future Luna Sasha tended to in the garden while we conduct our business.”
Gamma Gabe’s mind links me, “is that really your mate?”
I scoff, “yup, and we will talk after they all leave, I need to stay on top of my game here.”
He responds fast, “did the bond snap Alpha?”
I shake my head, “no, I didn’t look in his eyes yet, so help me out and stay close between us.”
He nods as he opens the pack house door and my mother is standing there, with my youngest brother Tyler on her hip, he’s covered in strawberry jam and giggling at her.
I clear my throat, and she turns, a smirk on her face as she assesses the men right behind me and bows her head in respect. I know why she’s there, she can read wolves but unless they show themselves to her, she can’t do anything. I smile at her, “Gentlemen, this is my mother, Luna Charlie.”
She gives them her award-winning smile, “Welcome to Crescent Moon pack, I hope your venture proves fruitful, now if you’ll all excuse me,” she giggles, “I have something very sticky to take care of.”
I stiffen as a low baritone voice speaks, “I see where my mate gets her beauty from now.”
I watch my mother stiffen on the steps and turn slowly, her eyes narrow at Alpha Christov and then dart to me. I mind link her at once, “the bond is not snapped into place, and I won’t allow it to.”
She stands staring at him, “did you say MATE?” Her eyes dart to the woman hanging off his arm.
I turn quickly, “follow me we need to get this meeting underway.”
I hurry my steps as Beta Josh and Gamma Gabe do to my office, once we are all inside and the door is shut, I inhale deeply only to be intoxicated by the scent of chocolate and mint. I sit at the head of the conference table and Alpha Christov sits at the other end directly in front of me. I stand and hold up the contracts, “we’ve all discussed every detail of this venture for months now, this contract has everything that has been discussed but there is one item that I added.” I wave a dismissive hand around the table, “it shouldn’t be an issue for any of us at this table, but my father is a stickler for perfection and has had many dealings with a simple clause of protection to ensure a safety net for the other parties.”
Alpha Christov speaks and his voice sends chills throughout my body, “this clause, where is it in the contract?”
I turn a few pages, smiling at my wolf Storm who is over the moon swooning in my head for our mates voice and accent, “page 15, there is a red arrow pointing to it, by all means read it, but I doubt any of you will have issue with it, it simply states that if any of us are under scrutiny by the counsel or other authorities that this venture is not to be seized as an asset,” I shrug, “simple enough, like I said a safety net.”
The room goes silent, and I observe their postures as they read over the contract, I have already signed them, so they just need to. My father’s voice enters my head, “which one is your MATE.”
I stare into the most beautiful face I’ve ever seen, sky blue eyes blink open, as little pink lips part with a toothless yawn. I blink back my tears and smile down at our perfect little bundle. Christov’s large hand cradles the mop of black curls that adorn his perfect head, he whispers, “Alexader fits him Momma, what do you think?”A tear falls down my cheek as I look at our son, “Alexander is perfect, Daddy.”Christov eyes dart to mine and he smiles wide, “you did so good little dove, so very good.”I nod, “yea, he’s perfect in every way isn’t he, I don’t think I’ve seen a more handsome boy.”He sits down on the bed and puts his arm around me, kissing my temple, “he looks like you that’s why.”I laugh, “he looks just like his Daddy and I think your pretty perfect.”A soft knock hits the door, and I know our quiet moment is over, I look up at him, “there all out there aren’t they?”He nods and smirks, “yea, and I think the hospital wants them all gone, they are taking up all of the
Today is Tyler's 6th birthday, he's more than excited for his party, which is being held at our house, which I didn't fully understand why, until this morning. My Momma arrived at 7am and fully charged and ready to be a grandmother. I woke up to the smell of her cooking and nearly fell on my face getting out of bed, Abigail had her leg wrapped mine and wouldn't let go. She smiled at me as I glared at her, "surprise," she said hesitantly. I lay back down and pulled her into me, well as close as her huge baby bump allows and she giggled, "Dimitri picked her up an hour ago at the airport," she says softly to me.I shake my head, "nice, so she is Tyler's big gift, or the little man knew she was coming and that is why he is so excited to have his party here," I cock a brow at her.She pouts, "you knew she was going to be here for our pup so she came a few days early," she pushes at my side for me to get up and I know she has to use the ensuite. I move and help her stand and watch as s
I’m staring at Christov when it hits me, “baby, you never told me what happened to your face?”He looks at me confused, “the scare in my eyebrow? That happened when I was a pup, my brother Ivan…”I shake my head, “no, the claw marks, the ones I healed, how did it happen?”I watch as he visibly gulps and stands up coming over to me, he pulls me out of my chair and sits in it, placing me on his lap, “now before you react, let me just say this, she was so sorry, seconds afterwards.”I arch a brow at him, “she? Who is she?” I'll kill the she-wolf that thought it was fine to hurt him.His arms tighten around my waste, “Luna Charlie, she was upset over the video and…”I growl, “are you telling me that my Momma attacked you.”He looks me in the eye, “Abi, she was so hurt and angry and yes she did, but she wanted to heal me seconds later, but Braddock stopped her and I don’t blame him or her, in her mind I had done the unspeakable to you and I can understand it more today than I did then.”
When we announced to the pack that their will be a winter solstice festival, which will help in creating our solidarity, the Iron Claw members were excited, they had never experienced anything like it and truth be told neither had I. As I sat at my desk I looked at Abigail, her tongue sticking out of the side of her mouth as she concentrated on the financial report, it’s a huge undertaking now that our pack is so big, but I can’t help admire just how smart and beautiful my mate is. I finish up with all the new alliance contracts that will be sent out, now that we have combined both packs, all our alliances need to sign contracts again and it is all to their benefit, since we are now the largest pack.Gamma Dimitri and Gamma Gabe moved into their floors here, but our Beta’s have stayed in the original pack houses, keeping someone of higher rank closer where the pack members are was a decision we both agreed upon. We haven’t told our pack members about their heir yet, Abigail wants t
Luna Lana was over the moon about having a grandpup, her first and I can’t help but rub my ear as her squeal is still ringing it. We sit at the island in the kitchen, yes still naked and Christov eyes me up. I giggle, “see something you like Alpha?”His growl is playful as I move back against the farmers sink to give him a full view, he moves off his stool and stalks me like prey, his eyes swirling with undeniable lust when a hard bang hits the front door. His head snaps towards it as if he is going to kill whoever is on the other side and I chuckle. He grabs me by the waist and kisses me quickly and then moves towards the foyer. I scream, “Christov, clothes!”He laughs, “we’re werewolves, people see us this way all the time.”I arch a brow to him, “really, you walk around with my lollypop at full attention around the pack?”He looks down at himself and I grab his hand, “come on, we need to get something to cover you up.” I yell out as we hit the stairs, “give us a minute.” I h
When he picked up me up I didn’t know how to tell him, I just found out I’m pregnant and we hadn’t really discussed when we wanted to have a pup, but I was sure he didn’t want one now, not when we are so newly marked and mated. Not to mention that we still have so much work to do with combining the two packs, making it all work right. I need time to get it straight in my own head first, really know what I want to do with this. When he pulled up to our home, I had no idea it would be ready, but to see what he had done, to see all our furniture, arranged just as I wanted in the living room and the painting, oh my baby has talent. I couldn’t believe he had done a painting of our union, and it is beyond anyone’s imagination. The falls, the wildflowers and the princess carriage, me in my momma’s dress and him in his tuxedo, but what captured me the most, the golden dragon in the distance with a small boy riding it and the black wolf that sits on top of the carriage holding the reins in
To say I’m excited is an understatement, we’ve worked tirelessly all day moving furniture in to our new home, Abigail has no idea that the house is ready and surprisingly enough no one has let it slip. The news that our Beta couple is with pup and the shit storm that Gabe has caused in the Crescent Moon pack house has kept her far away. We made one decision about our new home, that both Gamma’s will move in immediately to this one, yea, Braddock isn’t so keen of having Gabe around all the time now since Teresa has just turned 14 and he’s 26. They will move in tomorrow though, tonight it is just my little dove and myself, yea, we are going to be busy tonight for sure.Abigail had picked out every bit of furniture a month ago, so having it all delivered yesterday and today was easy enough, the only thing that I didn’t do was set up the kitchen or stock it. I made sure we had water, juice and stuff for breakfast and of course, there is a bottle of Champagne in every room on ice and j
It’s been a couple of weeks and now the dust has finally settled from our union and the council being here. It’s Sunday and as promised we are heading to dinner and movie night with my family. I can’t lie and say I don’t miss the day to day chaos that is my family, but I do appreciate it more when I have some control of the amount I receive. Christov chuckles as he opens the door to the foyer, “ready for it, because they know we’re here.”He opens the door and to our surprise only Tyler is there, and he is sitting on the bottom step, with his little fists under his chin. We walk inside and he doesn’t even look at us, I walk towards him and kneel in front of him, “hey bud, you okay,” I muss his hair, and he shakes his head and scoots his bottom away from me. I turn looking up at Christov and he smiles down at me as he kneels now in front of Tyler, “hey little man, what’s wrong?”Tyler looks at him and wrinkles his nose, “I don’t like girls anymore.”Christov’s expression is pricele
I sit behind my desk listening to Abigail and Cynthia as they talk about Sasha, Abigail is pacing the office, her rage is boiling over and Cynthia sits just watching her as she speaks softly and calmly to her, “Alpha Abigail, I’ve been talking with Sasha for 3 days now, she was just beginning to open up about what she had experienced when you came barging in.”Abigail stops dead and glares at her, “did you ask if you could speak to a prisoner? Or do you think you do not need to follow protocols any longer since she is your son’s fated mate?”Cynthia flinches at the accusation and raises her hand to Abigail, “stop right there Alpha Abigail, I do not need anyone’s permission to evaluate a potential victim, whether they are my son’s fated or not, it is my job to assess, evaluate and report to you my findings.”Abigail arches a brow at her, “fine, so the rest of the prisoners, did you evaluations them, or just Sasha?”Cynthia frowns, “just Sasha.”Abigail frowns, “So I’m right, you’re con
