~Missy’s Point of View~
Time is a funny thing, when you want it to go by fast, it doesn’t. And vice versa. I knew I wanted time to speed up, but in some aspects my mates needed more time.
So far they only had fourteen people interested in the pack with ten fully committed, not counting us or Nate’s mom obviously. Only three males so far had actually moved in. Clearly that was a disappointing number.
I had yet to go actually see the pack lands, or anything they were doing outside of pictures they showed me. They just kept saying they didn’t yet have enough done. Didn’t they know I didn’t care? I would be proud of a birdhouse they had made as long as they did it with pride and di

~Nate’s Point of View~ Ryan and I were truly burning the candle at both ends. We were both just fucking exhausted all the time. On top of everything, the council and the governor were starting to request weekly meetings to update them on the progress. The council asked the hard questions, the Governor? Didn’t seem to give a shit honestly. Needless to say, everytime we had to go back to the council mansion it was terrifying. I dreaded it more and more. “When will you have your first people moving in,” Godfrey asked. “Well Nate and I are pretty much living there now. Our Luna is getting training and we’re working on a charter,” Ryan said. “Exp
Alpha Ridge 23 - What Is It?
~Missy’s Point of View~ “No! No no no, why would you put that there! Come on! Think about it,” I scolded, as I began shoving furniture around. I was trying to help set up the pack daycare, which was extremely important. We had to get this right, it had to be a safe and perfect space. Pups are a pack’s most valuable resource, they are the future! This has to be a warm and inviting place or people won’t want to leave their babies in our care. The three males gaped at me, but just nodded and did as I directed. I could get used to this!! People who listened to me? Didn’t laugh at me? Looked at me as a person of authority? “There, now we’re getting somewhere. Okay what colors are we painting these walls? We
Alpha Ridge 24 - Come For Me
~Ryan’s Point of View~ “... like a lot.” I felt absolutely sick, and actually I had already thrown up twice today. If anyone at Long tooth found out about this I’d absolutely be a laughing stock, everyone would question my masculinity. While of course we had same sex couples at the pack, there weren’t many. But I had always prided myself on being a ladies’ man and being able to get any female I wanted. Nate seemed equally shocked and disgusted, and unsure where to direct his anger. I just had too many feelings over it all, and I never usually had unsettled feelings. When I kiss Missy everything is just so amazing, my body feels at peace. When I kissed him, I felt the same, because I THOUGHT in that moment it was her. We punched each other right after it happened
Alpha Ridge 25 - Turn Up The Radio
~Missy’s Point of View~ “I forgot to tell you something, or maybe I didn’t want you to be disappointed in me. It was pretty much the only thing you’ve asked me to do and I let you down,” I said, as our car pulled up to our first interview. Nate turned to me, with a surprised look. “Baby I’d never be disappointed in you,” he said, taking my hand and kissing the back of it. “What are you talking about, sweet girl,” Ryan said, taking my other hand. I was literally sandwiched between them in the backseat of an SUV with not a lot of room to spare. Not that I minded but my hair and make-up were done to perfection and they were both heaters. I was half
Alpha Ridge 26 - Set The Record Straight
~Missy's Point of View~ Unfortunately the rest of the day went much the same as the first interview. But at least the press conference got pushed back to 3pm due to some emergency the governor had. We were just grateful for the break and found ourselves lounging around in the waiting area of the governor's office. They actually called it a “pause area” and I’d never heard anything so ridiculous. “Can you believe someone asked me if we all have claw hands and hang out in cemeteries at night? Is this really what humans think of us? No wonder the council wants to change the perception of our kind,” Nate said, annoyed. “Someone asked me if all we eat is raw meat. They asked if we even have kitchens and bathrooms or just do all our stuff outside. You know, since we’re anima
Alpha Ridge 27 - One Thing After Another
~Nate’s Point of View~ It's real easy to get caught up in all the day to day and lose sight of things. I try to always remember the big picture, remember what I should be focused on. A home for my mate, a forever safe home. But it has gotten to be much bigger than just us. I’m going to be a freaking Alpha, I’m still letting that sink in. The happiness, health and safety of potentially dozens of people rests on my shoulders. At just 19 years old, that’s not something I take lightly. Maybe it’s just finally hitting me how big a deal this truly is. With our village, it's even worse due to the human factor. Going to do all that press, getting harassed and put under a microscope just got me out of my skin. I never put much stock in what humans thought of our kind or t
Alpha Ridge 28 - Emotional Rollercoaster
~Missy’s Point of View~ I got a call from Nate that he needed all available bodies tonight, and he didn’t have time to elaborate so I didn’t quite know what that meant. I was just glad I was getting a night away and skipping school tomorrow. My parents didn’t put up a fight about me sleeping over with them, their daughter was Luna and they made sure to tell every single person whether they asked or not. I had an hour left of school and I was counting the very seconds. “Are you still here? Shouldn’t you be taking your freak show elsewhere,” Celia said, from just behind me as I closed my locker. “I’m no more thrilled about it than you are,” I said, tossing my backpack over my shoulder and wal
Alpha Ridge 29 - Distractions Needed
~Ryan’s Point of View~As I walked out of the gym and headed back toward the packhouse I nearly threw up. My body felt like it was rejecting … something. My wolf was pacing, pissed off. I’d explained all this to him but he was still ready to shift and kill everything in sight. He was insanely protective of Missy and I noticed Nate behaving the same way. In this moment, we only had the three of us. Our wolves were lost.“I didn’t get to tell you as part of my punishment or whatever I can’t miss anymore school. So even if I get home late I really should still sleep there,” Missy said, just as we arrived back.I growled, needing to keep her close. I didn’t have a pack now, but I had my mate. And Huck wasn’t about to let her
