A war is coming soon. Next chapter will be Amber's pov again
Amber’s pov When Ronin came back to his cell he was looking a lot worse than before. His healing powers were hard at work, but it looked like Doctor Parker had punished Ronin for his misbehavior. They placed Ronin in his bed, he couldn’t move yet. So I had to wait to talk to him. I laid down in bed as well, resting my eyes a bit. Hoping I wouldn’t sleep to long. I needed to have a talk with Ronin before Doctor Parker got either of us for another test. I woke up hearing Ronin knocking on the glass. I sat next to the glass and told him I succeeded in making more holes for myself. And that I could now hear my wolf again, Ronin was surprised I could actually talk with my wolf, but he listened none the less to what she had told me. "My wolf Ripley wants me to transfer some power to you. If you have enough strength you will be able to hide us both." Ronin looked at me stunned, "does your wolf really think I am that powerful?" I explained that Ripley had lived many lives and this was no
Amber’s pov "My name is Lenore, I’m Axel’s mother," the woman said. I shifted back. "I don’t care who you are, release my son now!" Maria was still on the ground, she was crying. "I’m sorry, I’m so sorry." Lenore kicked Maria against her side, "you should feel sorry, you stupid girl." Then Lenore looked at me. "You know I taught her everything. I had hoped she would be Axel’s mate, but the Beta’s mate was good enough. She was in the perfect position to search for special wolves, while Axel went on his dumb quest to find a mate. But then she had to throw it all away and try to safe you both." I stared at Maria, she had been working for Lenore all this time? Is that why she became my friend in the first place? And what did Lenore mean when she said she tried to safe us? She had been driving the car when we finished dinner, this much I remember. It would have to wait for now, I needed to focus on Elias. He looked at me with tears, almost shocked to see me. "They said you were sic
Axel’s pov When I woke up I mindlinked my hunters. They had located some bombs around the border of the Sage Mountain pack, but they had found a safe way through for us. They couldn’t predict what we would encounter once we were inside pack border though. I ordered all my to leave the women, elderly and kids alone and only harms those that posed a threat. If I were to gain control of the Sage Mountain pack I needed the members to know I would treat them fairly. Alpha Finnegan had his own hunters and they had already smelled our troops and were ready to battle near the town. I had wanted to avoid casualties and unnecessary damage, but Alpha Finnegan obviously did not feel the same. He had men with snipers on the roofs of buildings and wolves standing in the street, but Alpha Finnegan was nowhere to be found. No self respecting Alpha would let his troops fight, without him. As soon as I saw the men, I shifted, not wanting to waste anymore time in finding Amber, Elias and Maria. I ran
Axel’s pov Logan send some medics inside to check everyone out. Maria was carried out, still bleeding. I felt betrayed by Maria, but I couldn’t imagine how Logan felt. Knowing that your mate lied and went behind your back like that. Normally I would have punished such betrayal right away, but meeting Amber and Elias made me think about finding another way. If Elias was to be The King of all wolves, we would have to show him justice and mercy. We needed to lead by example. Maria had been controlled and manipulated by Lenore and she had tried to save Elias in the end. I would take Maria with us back home and decide there, together with Logan and Amber. Amber had shifted back by now and we kissed each other for the first time in weeks. Kissing in front of Elias was not something he was used to and Elias started to giggle and hide his face. The door opened and Kenzo came in, with Bodhi behind him. Ronin and Bodhi embraced and both started to cry. Kenzo gave Amber and myself something t
Elias povEveryone knew I was destined to be the King of all the werewolves. Which meant no one dared to be anything but nice to me, expect my friend Zoey. She had known me ever since she moved here, after her dad was taken by my grandmother. She would always tell me the truth and had no problem giving me a hard time when I deserved it. Today was one of those days. I had been seeing Lisa for a while now, but I had always been clear of my intentions. I did not want a mate, being my mate would be dangerous. Anyone close to me could be used as leverage. My mother was the Luminous Wolf and she could take care of herself, she had been practicing with her friends to find new ways to keep the pack safe. My father was Alpha of the Crimson Moon pack and although he had no special abilities, he was not one to mess with. But having a mate was not something that was in the cards for me. I had my fair share of practice though, being the next True King had it’s perks. But my parents h
Amber's pov Axel was working late tonight while I was trying to sleep, but I couldn’t stop thinking about my future. I had been a mother since I was still a kid myself. I loved being a mother and seeing my kids grow up. Elias was almost an adult now and little Briana was not so little anymore at twelve years old. I had tried to be the mother I wanted to have, one that was fun, loving and interested. One who raised independent kids that knew their worth, but also knew they could go to their parents for help. Even my wolf's identity was tied to my kids. When Elias would turn 18 my powers would stop. I had no idea what that meant for Ripley. Could I still hear her then and would she be bored being an average wolf? Like I said, I loved being a mom. But often it was all I was. Even my role as Luna sometimes felt like I was the mother of the pack. What would I do if Elias and the pack didn't rely on me for protection? I loved the idea of less stress and responsibility, but I would miss m
Amber’s pov Elias had asked to meet with me about something important. He had been a lot quieter recently, I think it had something to do with this new girl Jade. He would come to my office later today. We had found out a few weeks ago that Jade parents had died in the Sage Mountain pack assault. I wish I had known, I would have never casually invited her to live in the packhouse. I can’t imagine living with the people responsible for my parents death. Well, in my case I could imagine it. Axel did kill my father and had my mother exiled, but they really had it coming. Plus I had killed Axel’s mother. And we continued to live with Maria. It had taken years, but we all forgave Maria for her part in Elias and my abduction. I had seen Elias stare at Jade and I had noticed Jade staring at Elias whenever he didn’t pay attention. Something was going on between the two of them. I had always hoped Elias would find his mate, but perhaps someone from that pack wasn’t the right fit for him. I
Amber’s pov Everyone started coming in for the conference. Ronin and Bodhi and their daughter Jaimee, Dawn and her mate Chase plus Oliver and Ava and their three kids. Then there were the special wolves who already lived here; Noah, Zeke and Emma all had joined our pack twelve years ago. Emma worked together with Gamma Omar most of the times, he had the ability to smell anything from miles away which came in handy. Zeke lived in the city like Noah, he had started working at the hospital. His healing powers were a great asset to our doctors and pack. We were missing one wolf, Charlotte, she had stayed at the Shadow pack of Alpha Soren. She wanted to see the compounds being teared down 12 years ago and found her mate in the Shadow pack. She had just given birth to a boy and decided to sit this conference out. Charlotte had super strength and would have been a great addition to our pack, but everyone was free to choose where they lived. As usual we started our conference with a small r
