ALPHA TRISTAN’S POV~~My eyes fluttered open slowly. The ache in my head caused me to grunt as I rolled on my back, finding myself in a dark room and my eyes failed to see a thing in here. It was too dark—Or more accurately, I was too weak to see anything despite being an Alpha. Not just any Alpha but the Alpha of Black Fur Pack.It felt like I had been asleep for ages and my wolf wasn't living within my consciousness. It felt like Dolf had finally left me and even my confused mind understood what that would do to me.“Where am I?” I groaned in pain, flexing my eyes so I could get a better glimpse but all I saw was darkness and my head threatened to combust. My mouth was very dry and my throat felt itchy as I tried to call out for anyone. I should be in my room, right? Someone should be outside the door I couldn't see at the moment and I should get help—“Fuck…” I whispered, holding onto my head as thinking made it hurt even more. My breath hitched when I touched something sti
LARISA’S POV~~“Where the hell have you been!” I snarled at Louis the second he entered my upgraded room. A lot had changed around here in less than geo weeks. I have gotten rid of Tristan and his people now lick my feet for a living. Including Louis who I had made Alpha even though he was still a puppet to me. A puppet I liked so much because, without him, I wouldn't have been able to dispose of Tristan. I was stunned when Louis came to find me and agreed to be my partner. I thought he was pretending at first but after he made everything work out smoothly, I knew he was no pretender. He was just as power-hungry as all the men I have come across but there was something different about him.Maybe it was the way he pleased me she remained dominant. I liked that he wasn't as soft as Raiden and as hard as Tristan. Perhaps Betas are the kind of men that suit me. “Taking care of shit while you get your nails painted, Luna.” He seethed right back at me and I found myself smiling like
ALPHA RAIDEN~~“It's time for me to retire as Alpha.” Those words echoed through my room, the one in my mansion where Alpha Clinton has been recovering since he arrived with his pack members yesterday. The older Alpha said those words to his son, Benji who instantly argued, “No, father. You are still strong enough to be Alpha—”“My pack no longer exists, Benji. It's time for you to take over and rebuild Moon Stone. You are my heir—”Benji argued, “I wasn't your her until those bastards killed—”His voice broke and I saw him fighting back tears as his fist tightened, his knuckles turning red.Benji’s younger sister who has been sitting by her father’s bed since I entered the room, chimed, “It's time to step up, Benji. Dad needs to rest and the Pack still needs its Alpha unless you want me to take over.”“You are more of an Alpha than I have ever been, Ella.” Benji muttered but added, “But I would rather be the next one to die in war.”Alpha Clinton and Ella barked at Benji, tellin
AURELIA~~Shocked? That word wouldn't be enough to describe the way I felt after Benji uttered that one word to Otis who was still frozen on the spot just like every one of us.Perhaps shocked as fuck would do but I wasn't sure because even though I have heard about couples of the same gender, I had never known one not even during my stay in Black Fur Pack.Clearly, this was unexpected even though we have all been praying that Otis would find his mate so the unbearable tension between him and Susanna would fade. “Do you guys need a moment together?” Seth broke the silence in the room when he asked Otis that question. Otis blinked rapidly, still stunned as he mumbled, “I guess that would be lovely.” Benji smiled as if he wasn't surprised like the rest of us, “I can already tell you have never been with a guy before, Mate but it's still good to meet you. I'm Benji, son and heir of Alpha Clinton of Moon Stone pack or what's left of it.”“I'm sorry. I just—” Otis stopped himself bu
ALPHA RAIDEN~~Was I doing too much?Should I even be pursuing sex during this perilous time? But it wasn’t about just sex. It was about feeling closer to Aurelia. I want to see her carry my mark and have her mark on my neck, wearing it proudly. I want everyone to know that she is mine and that I belong to her. I wanted all of that and more. Plus from the way she melted in my arms earlier together after the sexual tension that Benji and Otis created, I knew she wanted all of that as well. That’s why I sent the twins to my mother’s apartment—she moved into a new place since my mansion was currently occupied by Moon Stone Pack Members. The kids were with my mom, Susanna had gone to Andrew’s, and Nina had helped me prepare a fancy dinner for two. I have spent the past two hours decorating the living room as well. This wasn’t a waste of time. It was an investment. Even if I died, Aurelia would have these moments to remember–“As much as this is beautiful and thrilling, I’m again
AURELIA~~Dinner? How could I care about that when he was kissing me like this? How could eating be on my mind even though I have worked and trained hard today? Not when Raiden was touching every part of my body at the same time. At that moment, he had more than two hands.The fire of desire had been dancing within me even before we started the slow dance around the living room as we kissed with raw undiluted passion. I lost track of time as Raiden and I moved around the living room, devouring each other’s mouths, tasting places we never knew existed until now.“Hmm…” I moaned for the millionth time as his hand touched the sensitive part of my neck, caressing it heatedly. “I love you…” Raiden muttered effortlessly, molding our lips together before my brain could even understand his words. “I.” Kiss. “Love” Even deeper kiss that had my back arching. “You, Aurelia” He concluded, pouring desire into me like he was a fountain of it.He didn’t give me the chance to think or respond.
ALPHA RAIDEN~~She took me by surprise. One minute I was savoring the raw sweet taste between her legs and the next, her legs were wrapped around my neck and I was flipping in the air. How strong were those legs exactly? I thought to myself but my eyes were as wide as the ocean and they almost popped when Aurelia found a way to sit right over my weeping and aching cock. “Fuck…” I groaned. Although the thick fabric of my pants was still between Aurelia's slick entrance and my ready-to-go penis, I could still feel the ache of desire growing from the tip of my cock to the base of my swollen balls. “You don't get to starve me like that.” Aurelia whimpered but never had I seen her eyes so dark… so passionate. I didn't mean to starve her. In fact, after her third orgasm, I wouldn't say I was starving her. I was starving myself for her pleasure. I was restraining myself so she could feel that I genuinely wanted her unlike in the past….I didn't want her to compare the past and now
AURELIA~~Once upon a time, I would have been reliving the past as Raiden sank into me. I would have been reminded of every pain he caused me but tonight, I let it all go. I chose to live in bliss rather than pain. I chose to heal and my soul, body, and mind agreed with me. Even my memories did as they purged out the bad ones, replacing them with the new happier ones that Raiden and I were currently creating. I mean, I laughed.I giggled as he carried me towards the bedroom with my legs wrapped around his waist and his cock firmly rooted within my hole. Did he crack a joke? I wouldn’t know. However, he had me giggling all the way, whispering beautiful nonsense into my ear. Although I had forgotten the past, one fact I couldn’t forget was Raiden’s stamina in bed.His appetite had never been questioned and I knew he was holding himself back. I could feel it. Although Inara had been silent in my head since the intimacy started, I heard her thought as it flashed through my mind at
Princess Katie Anne~~“You are a healer, Katie. Please help Cole before you go.”Alpha Jarrett’s voice stopped me from following Davien, whose mixed feelings surged within me. All of this was a show, but Davien’s tense emotions weren’t, and I was genuinely worried about him.He needed me. I could lift his spirits if we celebrated this successful ruse together—without his family. But I had to stay back and maintain the facade. I rushed over to Cole, who couldn’t stand up straight due to a few broken ribs.But the pain from his broken ribs and swollen face wasn’t enough to keep Cole silent. Sadly.I resisted the urge to punch him when he began to speak. “You see what he did to me? He’s an insecure brat, Katie. You don’t deserve to be his ego booster every time he’s feeling down.”“Shut up, or I’ll walk away without healing you,” I seethed, holding his gaze so he’d see my seriousness reflected in my eyes.I hadn’t healed anyone before, but I could use the practice—especially on Cole—a
DAVIEN~~Disrespect from my family members was one thing, but getting the same from Cole, a man who was after my mate, was a whole different game, and my ego just wouldn’t have that. It was more than raging to think about Cole in the same space as Katie alone.Hell, it was a miracle that I didn’t go after Cole the second Katie told me about his visit. By miracle, I mean Katie’s reassuring words and magic touch. She calmed me down.But unfortunately for Cole, Katie wasn’t around to save him now, and the group of ladies around us just weren’t strong enough to get me off him—if they even cared.“My mate is off-limits!” I seethed, raising my tightly balled fist and forcing it down with a force that burst Cole’s lip on impact.Cole tried to fight back, but my second hand was holding him against the wet patio, and with Dolf’s strength pumping through my veins, he was no match for me.Cole proved to be the sneaky bastard we all knew him to be when he chose another method to fight me. He c
DAVIEN~~Having that talk with Katie made me realize that the path I was supposed to walk was already in front of me. Or maybe I knew it was there, and I was just doubting whether I wanted to walk that path.But with Katie’s words and the fire I saw in her eyes when she told me she was willing to become the Luna of my birth pack, give up staying with her family, and stay here with me, I knew what I wanted for myself. For us.Not only did I get a clearer vision, but the path before me also became clearer.“We have to become the Alpha of Black Fur Pack and Katie the Luna,” Dolf said within me as I walked through the corridors the very next morning after planning how to beat my family in their selfish games, with the smart-ass woman that the goddess decided to bless me with.My wolf’s words were meant to be a reminder, even though he knew I didn’t forget that I had made up my mind to stand against my family for the first time in my life.I would become Alpha, and the plan to achieve t
Princess Katie Anne~~Davien stared back at me like I had lost my mind, but soon, realization began to glint in his eyes. He went from angry to conflicted, and that broke my heart because I could tell that his family had once again gotten to him.“Oh,” he muttered, his shoulders falling.I stretched my hands to him, and he took them, joining me on the bed. I opened my mind to Dolf, asking him to create a mental link between Davien and me, even though a part of me wanted to keep the realization I had after Cole left to myself so I could protect my mate.“No, we have to tell him,” Zuri encouraged me.Zoe did the same when she said, “Yes. If we have been dancing to their tunes, it’s high time we changed the tune to ours and made them dance. We can’t do that without Davien.”I could feel Dolf agreeing with my wolves as he created the link between Davien and me. I then smiled at my mate, cupping his face as I sent words through the link: “He was glad we hadn’t marked each other. If only
DAVIEN~~A waste of time.That’s what I would call this meeting with my dad. For goddess’ sake, we have been here for what? Almost an hour, yet all he has done is look down on me and try to intimidate me. He was beating around the bush.Even a blind man could see that.I could feel regret in my bones because staying with Katie, who needed me, would have been a better and more efficient way to spend the hour than sitting here listening to my dad.“That’s it. I am leaving,” I blurted, cutting my dad’s statement short.He grumbled, “But I am not done. Sit down.”“Done what exactly?” I seethed, seeing shock flash through his eyes for the millionth time. I would be stupid not to realize that he suspected I had a wolf now. “Reminding me that I am your unloved son isn’t doing it for me. If you don’t want me here or need my help, just let me know, and I will be out of your hair.”Damn! I just needed him to let me in on the plan. I needed something tangible to tell those who had trusted me…
Princess Katie Anne~~“Why won’t anyone answer their damn phones?” I gritted, resisting the urge to throw my cellphone against the wall.Before I left home, we agreed that my family members would be accessible and that they would call me at least once every day, but even though this was my second morning in Black Fur, that agreement seemed to mean nothing.“There’s no special occasion. No ceremony or ritual that could have kept them busy since yesterday. I am beginning to worry,” Zuri said to me.However, I was too angry to be worried. I felt like my mom was screwing me because she already knew I would discover the truths she had tried hard to hide from me during my stay in Black Fur. Hell, I am certain she knew why I was trying to reach her.“Are they ignoring the calls intentionally?” Zoe queried, her confusion mixing with Zuri’s. “That’s far-fetched, Katie. We might have to be patient and—”A sharp knock on the door disrupted Zoe’s statement.I made the mistake of assuming that t
DAVIEN~~Seeing Cole last night at the welcome party confirmed that my parents were trying their best to rile me up. The party wasn’t enjoyable for either Katie or me, but we didn’t leave until it ended. While I spent the entire night thinking about when my dad would tell me why he asked me to come home, Katie spent it wondering why no one from Dark Moon was answering the countless calls she put through.I could feel her troubled mind as if it were mine, and it pained me that all I could do was hold her.“You should talk to Jade. Perhaps she might be able to shed more light—” Dolf started, but he cut himself off and sighed. “Never mind. What she needed was to speak to her parents. She needs answers that Jade or anyone else can’t provide.“I still have to have a word with Jade. She shouldn’t have accused Katie like she did yesterday,” I said to Dolf, even though I agreed with his conclusion.Looking down at Katie’s restless face, I made up my mind to keep her far away from Cole, who
Princess Katie Anne~~“I won’t let them treat you like this.”I seethed as the tension around us thickened, even though the crowd was still cheering. Davien’s hold around my waist became tighter, and I knew he didn’t want me to lash out, but I had had enough of this.How could they treat him like he didn’t exist, even in a ceremony? Amber had a seat to herself, and so did Damien, who wouldn’t stop staring at me like the creep he was. His parents also dared to flash those false smiles my way, walking over to clearly show me to my seat.“Thank you for joining us, Princess Katie,” Alpha Jarrett uttered with a light voice, and cheers echoed through the hall as members of the Black Fur Pack jubilated.However, I wasn’t merry like the rest of them, and with every second that passed, it became harder to pretend.“Please sit, Princess.” As expected, Luna Cynthia pointed at the only empty seat on the higher platform in the hall.Zoe barked within me, “The audacity!”My wolf’s anger only fuel
DAVIEN~~“That can’t be,” Katie whispered as she staggered into the bedroom, her face pale and hands trembling.I picked up the bag Jade had dropped, followed Katie into our bedroom, and locked the door behind me.“She really is dead?” She asked me, horror etched into her stormy blue eyes.I nodded, shocked that Katie didn’t know that Aunt Jessica had died thirteen years ago. My mate collapsed on the bed, and I knelt before her, holding her hand and telling her to breathe.“To protect Katie and Kyle, Aurelia hid the news of Jessica’s death from them. I also don’t know the full story, but I am at fault because of the part I played. Larisa might have pulled the trigger that killed Jessica, but I put her in the position to get killed for my selfish desires,” Dolf said to me, taking on the blame even though we all knew he had nothing to do with everything that went down thirteen years ago.“You mean it’s all Tristan’s fault. You can’t take the blame, Dolf, and it wasn’t right for Jade
