Chapter Thirty-Nine
The next time Cassandra opened her eyes, it wasn’t Caleb hovering over her…it was Kylie.
“You’re awake!” she squealed, her eyes widening comically, just before she pulled Cassandra into a hug.
“Don’t squeeze her back into coma Kylie.” Kennedy’s authoritative voice came, “She’s been out for some time, I bet she’s too weak for that hug.”
Kylie took a moment before she released Cassandra, she had a large smile on her face when she finally raised her face to look at her…her eyes were also wet with tears, causing Cassandra’s brows to furrow in concern.
“Kylie…” she began, but her voice was so hoarse she couldn’t continue.
Kennedy rushed to the bedside with a glass of water, which she put to Cassandra’s lips, as she helped her up, “Ease your throat Cassie.”

He had said it was simple.When Caleb had told her the mating ritual was much simpler than she thought, Cassandra had expected it would be as simple and unceremonious as Kylie's mating with Roy. She had assumed it would be just the two of them in a private space, declaring their love for each other as Caleb marked her.With the preparations that had gone on leading up to the day, she became more and more convinced that such simplicity would not occur for her. She had asked. The mere fact that all of the workers in the mansion were aware of the forthcoming mating, and milled about the house with practiced intention for it, had caused her to ask Caleb what exactly the preparation was for. The response she had gotten was something she was highly unprepared for. "You mean people will be there? Like, in person? I mean, like...like voyeu

Cassandra’s ears had to be twitching. Get naked and get in the pool? She had assumed she would have to get naked at some point, but not this fast. She looked over at the pool, it was a few inches away from them, and was covered in rose and hibiscus petals. A small woman stood by it, her head bowed…if only the other people present could do same. Caleb placed his finger underneath her chin, and pulled her attention back to him, “Look at me.” She gulped and nodded her head in response. He looked so good, his usually sleeked and packed hair, was now loose and draped over his strong shoulders, his chest was wide, his torso lean, and tapering into a slim waist. He looked like a high class model, but of course, she had always known that to be true. “We need to disrobe.” He repeated to her, as though she hadn’t heard Magnolia the first tim

It had been so long since he last fought, Caleb had almost forgotten what a battle ground looked like, but as they came upon the rogues that made up the Corona pack, as they transformed into their wolves and attacked, the scene became far too familiar for comfort. The corona pack didn’t have the numbers they had, but whatever they lacked in numbers and skillset, they made up for in grit. It was never an easy fight coming up agaisnt Rogue Weres, they were the castaways of the Were community, and whenever they go the opportunity to face packs that had a great standing in the community, they put in their all. That was the situation they were up against.Caleb’s wolf dodged the oncoming assault from a charging wolf, and latched his sharp canines onto the neck of another coming up right behind it. The tiny yelp from the wolf, as his teeth met bone, barely phased the Alpha. His usually silver fur, was coated in blood, as the batt

She felt the shift, even before the cause made it into the room. Cassandra stared out of the window, at the sparse people that moved around the compound. She could count only four or five people that had passed in the half an hour she had stood here. It wasn't usually like that; the compound was much busier normally. Most of the residents were locked away in their houses, calling on Luna for the victory of those who had gone out to fight and safe return of the Alpha. Since their mating, Cassandra found she could feel the inhabitants of this compound more. She could tell what they were feeling, she could tell if they were sad, happy, worried, nervous...a few months ago, being foisted with all of that power, would have caused her to have a panic attack, but now, it felt...natural. she was still getting used to it, but her adjustment was much faster these days. It was why she felt her the moment she stepped onto pack

Both couples sat with Kennedy, after she broke the news to them that she planned to return to Michigan. Kylie seemed close to tears, Cassandra looked like she had expected the news. Roy spoke up first "How are we supposed to protect you in Michigan?" He asked. "I don't need any protection Roy, although I do appreciate the offer." She responded evenly. There has been quite the growth in her relationship with Roy, they were cordial to each other, even leaning towards friendliness. As much as Caleb wanted to stop himself from uttering the words, he still found himself saying, "Rinaldi asked us to protect you." Kennedy paused, considering her next words, before she spoke them. "I think it's noble of you guys, to want to fulfill your buddy's wish, but if Rinaldi wanted me protected, he should have returned with you." She said with finality. Roy and Caleb had no words to argue her point, "Besides, you already hav

The squirrel sat by the bush, oblivious to the two pairs of amber eyes trained on it. The forest was mostly silent, none of its inhabitants wanting to make too much noise, just so they wouldn’t startle their target. Caleb’s wolf prowled in the thick of the shrubs, waiting for the right moment to pounce on the tiny animal. Squirrels could be fast, they had the gift of moving past one’s reach just when you thought you had them, so, the utmost care had to be exercised, to avoid losing them. he took a tentative step forward, and lowered himself a little, angling himself in a position to leap. Once certain that the squirrel was within reach, and wouldn’t be able to scramble away, Caleb leaped. He could have sworn his paw caught the squirrel by the tail, but in the blink of an eye, the animal was locked between Roy’s sharp teeth, and struggling weakly as more of its blood seeped out of its tiny body.

Caleb Chapter Forty-Six
That was the extra kick, needed to pull him from his murderous haze. He reeled himself back in, recognizing this for what it was. This was what Alejandro wanted. He wanted him to lose his mind and harm him. He sought a death he had been unable to get on the battlefield; quick, easy, mostly painless. The best part was, it saved him some of his pride and ego. Alejandro knew the options available to Caleb, and nothing would strip him of this false sense of importance he cherished so dearly, than being caged and paraded in the presence of all of the Alphas whose respects he craved so badly. Caleb grunted as he tossed Alejandro aside, "I will not give you the cheap death you seek, you mongrel." He spat, "You will have your day at the council of Alphas." He stated. Alejandro glared at him, "You can't even kill me, you bloody coward. You don't have the balls to do shit!" He growled in anger.Caleb had heard enough. He stormed out of the prison, intent on

She had some courage to her.Caleb watched the woman who had unceremoniously stopped his convoy, just before they left pack grounds, claiming she was here for Alejandro. Aside when she had bowed to him out of respect, her chin had remained up, as though she were of a royal lineage. Her eyes were a mystic forest green, set upon lightly bronzed skin. Her hair was dark and voluminous, framing her face prettily. How Alejandro had any sort of relations with a woman like her, was something he still couldn't conjure up. She wasn't meek, she didn't tremble in his presence or cower in fear, so, clearly, this wasn't one of his victims….then again, why would Alejandro's victim seek audience as regards his life? Alejandro, on the other hand, did not seem quite as pleased to see her. Of course, Caleb had made sure to show her the man on whose behalf she had interrupted his travel, just so he could confirm her story. Caleb couldn't recall se
