~Nate’s Point of View~
“Quit it,” I whispered, getting annoyed with Ryan bouncing his knee.
“I can’t help it. I don’t do waiting around very well,” he whined.
We’d been sitting outside the Governor’s office for an hour, waiting for a meeting we were supposed to have 50 minutes ago. I didn’t like it either, but we didn’t have a choice at the moment.
Alphas had to have a tremendous amount of patience, which I knew Ridge more than did. But his Alpha? Shit. That guy is just a loose cannon waiting to blow. I had no clue how Zach ran a pack.
I needed this meeting today for the distraction. We had b

Alpha Ridge 13 - What A Moment
~Missy’s Point of View~ “I heard they tried to rape her,” someone whispered. “I heard they beat her and raped her, she’s probably knocked up,” another whispered. “I heard they punched her dad,” someone said. This was my second day of the aftermath of my weekend, and while it seemed like no one was talking about what happened at the movies … this was far worse. I squeezed my eyes shut and tried to breathe while paying attention to the teacher. We were in our small auditorium, having a mass lecture on the history of our council, and learning about the Shadow Warriors. They seemed so scary and intimidating.
Alpha Ridge 14 - Home Sweet Home
~Ryan’s Point of View~ “This place is probably gonna have some harsh ass winters,” I said, looking out at the land. Nate nodded in agreement. The climate of Long Tooth was used to heavy and dark winters, but White Falls had a bit of a higher year round temperature, being more south. They’d never seen three feet of snow dumped all at once. It’s a lot of work to make sure your entire pack has food and stays warm. I hope he understands that. I had a flash of my sweet girl with a nice round belly, curled up under me by a fire. Damn, that’s a nice dream for later, making love to her in front of a nice fire… How about being stuck inside with her while she’s in heat? Ohh damn, I’ll have to keep that visual for later.
Alpha Ridge 15 - Surprise
~Missy’s Point of View~ I was walking home from school, after another ridiculous day of whispers and teasing. I couldn’t believe how quickly the entire pack found out my mates were going to be Alphas. There was a lot of criticism of course, for different reasons. Some people said they’d never be real Alphas, like legitimate. They didn’t have a bloodline and they didn’t fight for it. Which was ridiculous! If Ridge was given his pack and he was legit then my mates would be too. I had to believe that. I’d just come around the side of my neighbor’s house when I heard a whistle, like a cat call. I ignored it, figuring someone was just being a jerk. I finally cleared the side of my house and stopped dead in my tracks. Was I hallucinating?
Alpha Ridge 16 - Lady In Red
~Missy’s Point of View~ I was standing in front of a huge fire. I looked all around and there were pups with marshmallows and hot dogs on sticks chasing each other. There were even a few puppies around, actual four legged ones. Hollow Hill rarely had any actual pets, since they tend to not like witches and can be easy food for vamps desperate for a quick snack. “Welcome to my humble home,” Ryan said, coming up behind me. He had a huge smile on his face and he was obviously proud. His happiness radiated through me. “Also known as the uncivilized outhouse,” Nate said, laughing, and breaking the moment. I raised my eyebrow, did they use outhouses her
Alpha Ridge 17 - Down Boy
~Nate’s Point of View~ Time had really gotten away from me, and before I knew it the day of the dance was here. Things at our new pack were really coming along, we had broken ground on the packhouse and a few other key buildings. Their framing was up. We’d hired Ridge and some other trusted packs to help. I think some of them were a bit nervous that once word got out, they might lose some of their people who’d be curious about us. Councilor Quinn had tried several times to interfere and send people he knew to get in on the construction but we weren’t having it and I was sure that would bite us in the ass later on. This was our pack and yeah we were taking their money … but we had to live here. It was our names and our reputations at stake. It needed to be right. I hadn
Alpha Ridge 18 - The Dance
~Missy’s Point of View~ The anticipation for this night almost killed me, and once I saw myself completely ready, I absolutely thought I was dreaming. I obviously wouldn’t tell anyone, especially my mates but I had been eating only protein and veggies lately. I’d been exercising in my room at night. I found I didn’t even mind it and it actually helped me sleep better since I was so exhausted. I used water jugs as weights and did cardio. I’d gotten down seven pounds in less than two weeks and I’d actually never felt better. Who knew there was some truth to the whole “you are what you eat” nonsense. Well tomorrow I’d be having a cheat day, that much I knew. I already planned on pancakes and cookies. I’d probably gain it all back but oh well. I was so proud of mysel
Alpha Ridge 19 - Testing
~Ryan’s Point of View~ If that little bitch thinks she can mess with MY mate, she’s got another thing coming. I know she’s a female and a pup, but she’s gonna get hers. One way or another! I could sense the fury radiating off Nate, and I knew we needed to blow the hell outta here soon. What we had planned next was too important. Also if my wolf had to look at that little bitch anymore he was going to force himself forward and rip her face off. And I wasn’t going to stop him. If this was Long Tooth I’d embarrass the shit outta her, but then again at my pack it never would have gotten this far. Gone on for this long. I really had the feeling there was more Missy wasn’t telling us and I hated that. We had to get her there, and we would. There was still a bit of trust left
Alpha Ridge 20 - The Beach
~Missy’s Point of View~ I nearly stopped and pinched myself but I didn’t want to wake if it was all a dream. My mates were beyond everything I could have ever imagined and they showed me … they didn’t just give me empty promises. After the paint incident at the dance, the ultimate slap in the face would have been being stuck there and having to watch Celia be crowned Luna. I was certain it happened, but I damn sure didn’t want to see it. Now instead? I was on a beach, swimming in the ocean with my two Alphas, my two soulmates. Well, mostly kissing but there was a bit of swimming. “So tell me how things are going at the new pack,” I asked, as we lazed around, eating bits of the picnic.
