Alpha of Alphas - The Lycan's Impossible Mate Chapter 45
I wake from a nightmare, my fist jammed in my mouth so I won’t scream. Something I used to do when I was small so no one would hear me cry. The room is dark, but it doesn’t scare me as much as it did before. I have wolf vision now and can see everything just as clearly as I would have if the lights were on. “Are you okay?” Charmaine asks from the bedroom door. “Yes,” I croak through dry lips and drag myself into a sitting position. Usually, after a torture session that severe, I’d hurt for days afterward, but I feel okay. Almost normal. I don’t know if my wolf healed me, or if it has something to do with sleeping in Kane’s arms. “Both,” Suri answers helpfully. “Our mate stayed with us all day.” “Yeah, he’s a good one.” Gods I stink. Like rotten meat and onions. “I need a shower,” I say aloud. “Yeah,” Charmaine agrees. “Do that, then come watch a movie with me or something. We’ll have a proper girl’s night. Does Kane have wine up here?” “I have no idea.” I smile. “But there’s usu

Several more bottles of wine, and a very drunken me later, we stumble to bed. I sit on my knees, looking at Kane undress, and get ready for bed. Maybe it’s the wine, or maybe it’s just knowing that tonight I can sleep free of fear, but I’m back to being horny. He catches my eyes on him and gives me a smile. “Forget it, you’re drunk.” “Yeah so?” “I’m a lecherous asshole, but I’m not ‘mess with drunk she-wolves’ bad.” “I’m your mate.” “I don’t care. Come on--” he pats the bed --“get in drinky smurf.” I start laughing and crawl under the covers. He turns on his side, his hand tucked under his head, staring at me with sleepy eyes. Gods, he’s beautiful. “Thank you,” I say. “For what?” “Killing him. I couldn’t do it.” “Of course not, he was your father.” “It’s awful, I know, but I’m glad he’s dead.” “It’s okay. He wasn’t a good guy.” “He was a monster.” “I thought I’m the monster.” I did say that – more than once. “No, you’re a good man. Better than most.” He yawns, his eyes cl

Kane’s POV: We eat breakfast in relative silence. Willow is nervous and occupied with her own thoughts. “You have to go back to the witches today,” I say, more to break the silence than anything else. “I know. I don’t want to.” “You are their next high priestess, they will look up to you. They need you.” “I don’t want it. I don’t want to be their high-priestess.” I almost drop my fork in surprise. Three days ago, she ran out of here like a bat out of hell, now she doesn’t want to go back. The woman’s giving me whiplash. “What you want is not important. What you have to do is.” “What have they ever done for me? Honestly now, Kane? Lady Blaire heard my father torturing me, she felt my pain, and she did nothing.” “What about the fledglings?” What am I doing? Why am I trying to convince her to go back, when all I wanted these last few weeks was to keep her here? “You said you can change things for them.” Stop it Kane, fuck. She’s here. Now. And she’s finally willing to stay. “You ha

Kane’s POV: A lot of things make sense now. I’m pretty sure my father only installed me as king so he could feign ignorance when his fraud was revealed. We found a bank account in my name, with money from there funnelled into shell companies, and then to an off-shore account, from that account it goes to Patrick’s trust fund, which my father administered, another fake company account, and his elders. And that was just what I could find with very little effort. There’s so much more, and the one thing I know for sure is that it all points back to me. “Goddess, this is sophisticated,” Jackson says, looking over the files. Glenn stands against the wall, his hands jammed in his pockets, a sure sign that he’s agitated. He doesn’t trust Jackson, but I do. My witch senses are developing, and I’m not in the least bit concerned. “Is there a way we can prove it’s him?” “Yeah. I am a forensic accountant. I’ll unravel this for you. It will take a while though.” “Thanks, Alpha. Get cracking. Se

Now that I see him up close, I can tell that he’s not my father. His nose is different, his lips are fuller, and he has my mother’s ears, not my father’s. “Willow?” he asks, looking uncertain. You’d think a man approaching his two-hundredth birthday would be less bashful. “Are you okay?” “Yes--” I shake my head --“I’m just…flabbergasted, that’s a good word, let’s go with that.” He laughs softly, and my blood runs cold. He sounds just like my father when he laughs. “Imagine my shock when Lady Blaire phoned and asked me if I’m interested in becoming the new coven master.” “Why you?” He shrugs. “I suppose the others didn’t want the job.” “How many youth spells have you cast over the years?” It always bothers me when I meet a witch that cast youth spells. Aunt Mildred did it too, but stopped when she was ejected. “Three times. You've never done it?” “No. And I never will. I promised Kane.” “Hm,” he grunts. “Because of the baby blood? I told him you don’t need to kill the baby – we

I lean against a tree, watching Kane laugh as he folds his hand around a metal mug, and sips on the hot coffee. He looks happy and relaxed, and I feel a tug of envy. The witches don’t have the same friendship and camaraderie as the wolves. There’s no warmth, no love. We are suspicious of each other, treating our coven members with cold indifference. When Kane said march, he really meant march. The wolves shifted outside the palace and ran in the direction of the forests, towards the human town. Splitting off into squads so they could cover more ground. Each squad took a handful of witches with them, following the wolves in SUVs. Tonight, we’ll sleep under the stars. There are no tents, no sleeping bags, nothing, just the basic supplies of food, water, and clothes for the wolves. Kane and I agreed to keep up the charade for now. It’s been difficult enough for the wolves to accept the coven’s presence -- they’re not yet ready to hear their new queen is a witch-

Kane's POV: Willow leads us down the embankment, towards the enemy. She appears fearless, walking with her back straight and head held high, but I can sense her inner turmoil. She’s scared. More than she was when her father breathed down her neck. “Stop,” she whispers. “Look.” She waves her hand in the air, opening a little window in the magical shield hiding Vickus’s wolves from us. The air is suddenly thick with the smell of smoke and roasting meat. I can hear the laughter of his wolves, see them bustling around their campfires. All of it neatly contained within the boundaries of the spell. I stare at the force before us. Wolves as far as the eye can see. There’s no way Richard doesn’t know they’re on his territory, and his pack is huge. If he joined them along the way, Vickus’s ranks swelled by roughly two-thousand. We can’t possibly fight them. Willow waves her hand again, closing the window. “Wow,” Jackson offers. “Powerful magic.” “Well, there’s a thousand or so witches. If

Kane's POV: The night passes slowly and uncomfortably. The bark scratches my skin to pieces, and the knots in the tree dig into my flesh. A few hours ago, the last of my warriors snuck into the witches’ forest, climbing into the trees. We are spread out throughout the forest. They’re not getting in or out of here without a fight. The witches will alert us the moment Vickus arrives, which makes me uncomfortable. I trust Alfred, which is very strange for me, since I don’t usually trust people that lie to me, and I trust Willow, but not the rest. Two trusted witches are enough though. Agatha also returned with her witches. None of them looked too good. A little green around the gills, but they took up their positions as ordered by Lady Blaire. Having the forest witches with us is a good thing – they know these woods better than anyone. Around dawn, a little bird stars singing. A bird that’s not native to our woods. I mind link wi
