Alpha NicholasI can feel Lexi pulling away from me. She wants to run and while I don't blame her for that, I still can't let her do it. I Can feel Bonnie slowly fading and it's driving me fucking crazy. If it comes down to it I will haul her ass back to the pack house and deal with her anger later as long as she gets taken care of I don't give a fuck, but I'd like her to come willingly. I don't deserve it but I just need her to trust me. Deciding to give her a little something I get down on my knees so she's standing over me and pretty much beg her to let me help her."Lexi. I know you have no reason to trust me, I get it, I really do. But I promise that nothing will happen to Bonnie. I just want to help. I've not been acting as I should, I know that. I've been a fucking fool! but I just want to help, that is all." She lets out a whine but doesn't give me any kind of answer. "Let me talk to her." Storm's voice booms in my head. He's so worked up that I can feel how tense he is. I agr
Alpha NicholasIt's been two days since I brought Bonnie to the doctor and she's still unconscious and I've not left her room. I shower in the ensuite bathroom attached to her room and my brothers, Lily, and my parents bring me anything I need along with endless amounts of food that I don't want. Since the moment the doc left us alone I've felt sick and I'm pretty sure that Storm is feeling the same, only I don't know for sure because he hasn't spoken to me since we got here. Of course, before he went on a silent strike he made sure I knew what he thought. He said that this is all my fault, that if I had accepted my mate the night we met then she wouldn't have been hurt and she wouldn't be here, and as much as I want to deny it I can't, he's right. This is all my fault and the idea of her being hurt because of me feels like a knife to the heart."Hey, Dad." Lottie's soft voice takes my attention away from where I've been standing at the window thinking over these last few girls. My br
Bonnie“Bonnie… Bonnie, you're awake, fuck you're awake!" He jumps out of his chair and quickly presses a button on the wall before standing right next to me. “How are you feeling? Does anything hurt? Why didn't you tell me what was going on with you? Why did you run?” He's throwing question after question at me and I don't have enough time to even think about an answer never mind do it. Jesus my head hurts.“Alpha, maybe we could give Bonnie a few minutes to wake up before we start with the questions?” A guy in a white coat says as he walks into the room and over to my bed. He's an older man with streaks of grey in his hair and crazy bright blue eyes and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that he was a looker when he was younger.“Yeah, sure, fine.” My mate grunts unhappy but I'm not sure if he's more pissed at being told what to do or the fact that he can't wait to interrogate me. Wait, what did he mean when he asked me why I didn't tell him what was going on with me? What does
Alpha NicholasShe threw me out of her room... She threw me out. She may not have done it physically but it was clear that she meant it and as much as I wanted to ignore her and just stay there, she deserves to be treated with some respect. Yes, I know I'm not exactly doing that when it comes to our whole mate bond situation but that's why I can at least try and give her the respect she deserves in other areas. I'm still not happy about being kicked out but I have to admit that seeing some of her feisty side come out was quite enjoyable."Hey, son. How is she doing?" My mom's voice echoes in the small hallway where I've been sitting on the world's most uncomfortable chair for the last 15 minutes. She may have kicked me out of her room but she didn't say I couldn't sit outside of it. "She woke up for a little while then asked me to leave so she could get some more sleep hence me sitting here like a lost sheep." My mom chuckles as she comes to sit beside me but instead pulls the chair a
Bonnie"Are you ready to talk now, Bonnie?” Nope, not at all, but here goes nothing I guess. "Yes." There is a lot I want to say, a lot I need to know, but I'm not going to go first. He hasn't been very kind to me so far and the least he can do is go first and maybe explain to me why he doesn't want me. "I know we have a lot to talk about, but first I just want to clear something up. You mentioned earlier about me having women in my life, and I was wondering what you meant?" "Just what I said. I know you have a woman, but again, as long as she makes you happy, then I'm happy for you." I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to say. Yes, the thought of him with someone else hurts like hell, but that's his choice, and I'm not going to try and force him into something he doesn't want, namely a relationship with me. He looks confused as he stares at me. "I don't know where you got that from, but I assure you, I don't have women in my life, not in the relationship sense anyway." "I saw you a
Bonnie “I don't understand.” He's just thrown a major curve ball at me and I have so many things I want to say but at the same time, I feel speechless. “I thought you… you didn't want me as your mate?” He runs his hand through his hair before letting out a long sigh. “It was never that I didn't want you as my mate. It was never personal to you, I just didn't want a mate full stop. Well, I wouldn't allow myself to. It's all so complicated." He lets out a huff of frustration seeming to match the frustration that I feel inside of me. "It's complicated how? I don't understand?" He has to explain this because there's no way I can figure it out alone. "Do you remember how I said that Lottie's arrival was not your usual story?" I nod. "Well, her arrival and my whole complicated mate situation is kind of an all-in-one thing." I understand what he's trying to say... I think. "I know you want to know the story and I will tell you but to tell you about that... Well, not many people know about
Alpha NicholasI'm livid! I'm so mother fucking Goddam angry I swear I could tear apart this entire room and not even blink an eye. Who the fuck treats anyone like that? Let alone their own blood family, let alone my mate! I just don't understand it. She's so beautiful inside and out, so kind-hearted it's sobering, and yet those worthless pieces of assholes think that it's okay to do that? Well, I can guarantee that it won't happen again. NO FUCKING WAY! Even if she doesn't want to be with me, then I will make sure she gets somewhere safe, hell, I'll hire her a bodyguard for the rest of her life if I need to, but no matter what they don't get to hurt her again."Are you ok, Nicky?" Her sweet voice brings me back to the present but she must see more on my face that I don't mean to show because she suddenly shrinks back from me and that one move alone is enough to bring me back to my senses. "No, Bonnie, Please don't do that. My voice is harsh but I try to keep my tone calm and as soft
Alpha Nicholas As soon as we hit the forest I stop and curse myself. What the fuck am I thinking only having Lottie with Bonnie? Yes, she is more than capable of protecting both her and Bonnie and when it comes to my pack both of them couldn't be any more safe but I still have Bonnie's father and sister on my land and I don't fucking trust them, not one bit! Those 2 girls are the most important women in my life and it's my job to protect them. Of course, I love my mom but my dad always has her protected so I don't need to worry too much.Luckily for me, I have Will here with me and as my Gamma, it's his job to have control over the warrior's patrol shifts. "Will, do you know if Ryan and Tony are on patrol today?" He stares up at the sky as he thinks before shaking his head "No, they are on the night shift tonight on the East border." One thing about Will is his incredible memories of the patrol rotas, rarely, he doesn't know who's on patrol and when. We have a lot of warriors and for
Bonnie Three months later. After several weeks of sickness, insane fatigue, the worst mood swings, and another doctor's visit that didn't give us any answers, Nick insisted that we see the doctor again. However, unbeknownst to me, this time, he requested a different doctor, and if I'm being honest, I am grateful for it. Something is wrong, but for some reason, the normal doctor isn't able to figure out what it is, despite his years of experience with the most insane injuries and illnesses.If he can't figure out what's wrong with me, then maybe a different doctor can, because I'm starting to get worried now and so is Nick. He's not sleeping or eating like he usually does. He's constantly checking in on me, and unless I can go with him, he's cancelling any pack duties that are away from the pack lands, and I hate that I'm putting him through this.We step into the doctor's room and take a seat just as a female doctor walks into the room. "Hi, Harriot. Thank you for coming." Nick stan
Bonnie Nick stayed true to his word, and neither of us got much sleep last night. We were awake until almost 3 am, and even after that, Nick woke me up twice and made love to me before we passed back out. And if that wasn't enough, he then woke me up at 7 am with his head between my legs. I swear that man would live between my legs if he could, not that you'll ever hear me complaining.First thing this morning, after we had both showered and dressed, Nick was on the phone with the doctor and had an appointment arranged right away. Of course, this is in no way a coincidence. Being the Alpha and future Luna of this pack is without a doubt, the only reason that we got an appointment so soon, but I'm grateful for that.Everyone knows that pregnancy tests can be false, and as much as I've had physical signs of pregnancy, I still need physical proof that it's real, because until I do, I keep worrying that there's been a mistake, and the thought of that makes me want to cry. What if it is w
Alpha NicholasAfter spending twenty minutes between my mate's legs and drawing several orgasms from her, I'm so turned on I'm harder than a box of nails, and as much as I want to spend several more hours between her legs, I want to get my dick between them even more, I need to. I place one more kiss on her mound as I pull my fingers out of her soaking-wet pussy and can't help but smirk when she makes a noise of protest. My girl is greedy when it comes to orgasms and I fucking love it."I haven't finished with you yet, baby girl. Don't worry." I look up to see her smiling, but it quickly turns into a moan when I gently slap her pussy before slowly making my way up her body, leaving a trail of kisses along the way. I cover her body with mine as I reach her mouth and dive in kissing her with all I have. I groan as our tongues tangle together, and I explore every inch of her mouth. Fuck, will I ever get enough of her?I pull back when I'm out of breath and watch as my mate's chest rises
BonnieBoy, has it been a day! A very long, emotionally draining day, but I'm oddly kind of glad that it happened. Of course, hearing Lottie talk to me about how she felt and taking in the words that she said and the meaning behind it all was heartbreaking, but I do believe that having her talk to Nick and me about how she's been feeling was a good thing.One because it explains why she said all of the things that she did and two because maybe now that she has finally said everything out loud, it will help her too because she had a lot of thoughts and feelings and while some of them are a result from the pain that her birth mom has caused her during her life, some of them also just resembled an act of a jealous teenage girl.The quicker she learns that she isn't going to be replaced or forgotten or lose me or this baby the better because I hate to think of her suffering like that. And while I can't promise that nothing won't happen to the baby, I can promise that I will do everything p
Alpha Nicholas Hearing my daughter's fears was hard. I never want her to be scared of anything, but whereas I will always do my best to protect her from physical harm, I can't do a lot to protect her from her mental fears. As much as I want to, it's just not possible. The scars that her birth mom left behind have the potential to haunt her for a long time, possibly even for the rest of her life.As hard as it must be for her to feel how she does or how she did, I can't and won't allow her to talk to anyone like she did, especially Bonnie. While she has my sympathy, if I let her get away with this without any kind of punishment, then I won't be doing my job as her dad. Yes, her words had meaning and I somewhat understand how she feels, but she didn't need to talk to Bonine like she did, and just the mere thought of her in any way mentioning killing the baby has me seeing red.If I let her speak to Bonnie... her stepmom... her Luna like she did, then I can only imagine how she could sp
BonnieI'd be lying if I said that hearing those words out of Lottie's mouth didn't break my heart and I can both sense and feel that Nick feels the same. There are so many things that I want to say to her right now, but I hold back both wanting and feeling that Nick should take the lead here.He takes a deep breath while keeping his eyes locked with hers. "If that's the truth, then yes, that's what I want to hear. We need to get to the bottom of whatever is going on, no matter how hard it may be for you to say or for us to hear." Nick tries to remain calm, but I can feel his emotions, and they are all over the place. "So, is that the truth?"She nods her head as she wipes more tears away from her eyes. "Why, sweetheart? Why are you feeling jealous?" She stares at Nick, but I can see it in her eyes. She is struggling to word what she wants to say, but I'm pretty sure that I have it figured out, so I just go with it and blurt it out. "Lottie, am I right in thinking that you're jealous
BonnieI hate the feeling that everyone is currently against Lottie, or having any kind of bad thoughts against her, and while I know it's stupid given the situation, I just can't help it. There is already a protective streak inside me when it comes to Lottie and, regardless of the situation, it's hard to switch off."Lottie, would you like to tell your grandparents and uncles what you have done, or even better why?" Nick asks her, although it's more of a command than a question. Lottie's face slightly pales while everyone in the room just looks confused, and I get it.While Lottie is a typical 16-year-old girl with hair, makeup and talks about finding mates being a part of her daily life, from what I've been told and come to learn myself since I've been here, it doesn't appear that Lottie has caused a lot of trouble in her life. She seems to be a pretty well-behaved girl, so I can only imagine that everyone is a bit confused right now.I grab my mate's attention and lean into him, ke
Alpha Nicholas"I'm sorry, sweetheart. Can you say that again?" My mate hiccups as she tries to calm herself down and control her breathing. "Lottie, She said that you don't want any more children. She said that you have never wanted any other children aside from her." What the fuck is my daughter playing at?While I know that my daughter isn't innocent because let's be honest, no children are, I still can't imagine her ever being mean to Bonnie, especially over a baby, and her baby brother or sister at that. Growing up, she had always wanted a sibling, so why would she react like this now? Whatever her reason, I'm fucking angry and my pregnant mate is completely heartbroken, and I want this shit sorted out right now!"Where is she?" I growl. I'm trying to keep my anger under control, but it's so fucking hard right now. "I don't want this to... I..." Before she can finish her sentence she breaks down crying once more, and I swear that every single tear that she shreds feels like it te
Bonnie After not feeling well for a few days, I was starting to get a little worried. Werewolves don't generally get ill, but here I was constantly tired. I was sick in the mornings and my appetite was all over the place and yet, I still didn't put the pieces together, but Nick's mom did. Earlier today, while the guys were down in the cells, she came to see me. Nick had gone to her worried about me and, because so far I had refused to see a doctor, he had asked her to come and see me, hoping that maybe he could figure out what was wrong with me.Of course, within minutes of me telling her what was wrong, she had worked it out all while a massive smile appeared on her face. The moment she told me that she was certain that I was pregnant, I wanted to pass out. Of course, looking back now, I realize that the symptoms were all there screaming in my face, but for some reason, I had missed them all.I generally hadn't even thought about the possibility that I could be pregnant, which was s
