Claimed by the Alphas My child, not yours.
Luka povPanic surges through me as my eyes search our surroundings. The hopeless, always positive fool in me seeks anything that might distract Lenox, or his beast, from gutting this woman before my eyes. I know there’s no more skillful killer than my brother, and I don’t need a demonstration to agree with this statement. Lenox is the type of guy who guts someone with a look of wonder in his eyes, getting giddily and excited every time he finds another blob of blood. Atlas, yeah, he’s a case far worse than Lenox. “Atlas, listen to me, please listen to the voice of reason and don’t do this. She knows something, there must be a reason why she watched Laz and me, and why she tried to attack me. How about we get the information, and then, you get a green light for gutting her?” I offer the only reasonable outcome I see for this situation. It’s clear something’s going on behind our backs, so I fear this woman might be the only firewall between us and the secrets. Our past has proven
Claimed by the Alphas She poisoned herself.
Sarah povI was angry. Fuming. More than ready to rip off Lenox’s head, but now, I stand leaning against Than and look at Luka’s back as he disappears into the woods. My eyes must be wider than ever, and my jaw nearly hits the ground. Of all the possible outcomes, this isn’t one I predicted. I forced Than to walk me out and find Lenox so I can give him peace of mind about his doings, but I never thought he would drive away his brother like this. During my pregnancy, we agreed we would raise the baby like a family, the child would be blessed with three amazing dads and one mom. Just like Seth and her husbands, we wanted to create an amazing family.“Lenox,” I whisper his name as a tear slides down my cheek. My bottom lip trembles, and I fear I might break down right in front of them. “Fuck, I didn’t mean to!” Lenox screams, grabbing his hair and pulling on it. We all know he’s more of an in-the-moment guy, but it’s so rare he spits out something closely as terrible as this that I
Claimed by the Alphas I think I should go alone.
Lazarus povSo, the last twenty-four hours have been more eventful than my entire existence. What started as a quite stressful, but beautiful experience ended up in disaster. Learning that one of my brothers went missing was a hard blow, but on top of that, we have Sarah back in the hospital bed. From what I learned so far, Luka left because of something Lenox said under the influence of some mythical creature. I'd understand a walk to clear his mind and though Luka has never been one to lose his cool over something this quickly, I get why he needed some alone time. Our household has been a mess with pregnancy and uniting packs, so all of us dangled on the tip of the knife when it came to anything that might trigger our emotions. However, Luka is not one to leave and never look back. He can take a bit more time to cool off, but he always returns. Not this time apparently, and what makes the situation worse is that the trackers couldn't find him. As soon as I learned about his
Claimed by the Alphas You can’t go home; we kidnapped you!
Luka pov“How stupid are you?” Someone screams near me, but I don’t recognise the voice. My head pounds, the pain keeps spreading, and no matter how hard I try, I can’t open my eyes. The first instinct is to bring my hand to the back of my head, where the pain is most intense, but I can’t do even that much because it feels like my wrists are tied behind my back. “I’m not stupid!” Another new voice joins the heated argument. The stench in this place is dreadful. Worse than the cells that used to be located in my father’s old packhouse. And that was bad due to all the blood, rotten flesh and vomit of rogue invaders mixing. “You are the damn king of stupid! You must have two brain cells, and both are fighting for third place! I can’t believe you messed up such an easy task. To think I ever assumed you could manage on your own!” The first voice comes back with more aggression.I’m no stranger to useless arguments; I had many over the years with my brothers, but this one is killing me.
Claimed by the Alphas I’m keeping you away to save lives.
Luka pov“Those idiots got their hands on a few drops of venom, that’s why you can’t open your eyes. Don’t freak out just yet, it’ll take a few hours until the effect wears off, so you’re not in any immediate danger, and neither is your vision.” The stranger warns me as he carries me away from the awful stench. I’m on his back like a wounded animal, and quite frankly, I’m surprised he talked dumb and dumber into giving me to him. I don’t dare to assume that I’m safe with this man. There’s no such thing as safety around strangers and those who stood with someone who decided to kidnap me. For whatever reasons they did it, I’ll figure out who they were and have their heads handed to me.“Why are you helping me?” I ask the most important question. This man didn’t lay out his intentions when he decided to get me out of there, so I can’t trust him just yet. Especially since I can’t see where he’s taking me. “Because I’m not that thrilled about the idea of kissing my life goodbye. Come o

Lazarus povSarah was awake for all but two minutes until she fell asleep again. I wish I could gaze into her eyes for longer, but at least the doctors assured us that it’s normal to feel extremely tired in her condition. They say it’ll take a few days until she comes back to her senses completely, so for now, everything is a waiting game for us. Than walks me out of her room and stops in the hall. I shouldn’t be, but I am happy that he’s the only one of our parents left in the hospital. Mom needs to take care of our siblings and the rest of the dads are running around her like she’s a miracle. I’m not trying to say it’s a bad thing, because it’s truly wonderful, but my feelings are far too conflicted right now. A part of me wants my parents around so they could give some much-needed support, but the other part screams they shouldn’t be a part of the misery. Than’s massive palm lands on my shoulder. “It will be okay, son. She needs some rest; the baby is safe, and we will find L

Lazarus pov Well, shit. Great. That's just what I needed. Note the sarcasm. Sighing, I give up on any idea that ran through my mind earlier and mutter, "I'll be on my way to greet the Elders then." Even though I'm on pretty good terms with some of them, I can't flaunt amazing communication abilities when it comes to the Elders. Luka is the brains of the bunch and he has plenty of Council friends. Speaking of which, he disappears right when he's needed the most. I know I am unreasonably irritated by the situation and the Council members falling on my head like unexpected snow, but I can’t help myself. For the time being that I have to spend next to those men and women; I’ll pretend everything is okay. Now to think of a believable excuse for my brothers. As always, I reach the main building before I’m ready to face the guests. My mind is blank, nothing I think of seems like a legit reason to excuse Luka and Lenox, so if shit really hits the fan, I’ll have to come clean with
Claimed by the Alphas Dead men don’t talk.
Lenox pov“Do you guys have mutated dust here? I swear, my balls feel like someone’s brushing sandpaper against them,” I groan and reach into my pants to ease the itch. As I relieve the annoying sensation, both men turn their gazes on me. “What?” I snap at the morons who stare at me in disgust. “Don’t tell me you haven’t seen a guy scratch his balls before. Come on; it’s the most natural thing to do. Besides, it’s not like I have an STD or anything. And for your information, no, I don’t plan to fuck you, so my itch stays where it belongs – in my pants.” I grin and carry on with my business. “Normal people don’t do that with a spoon,” one of them scoffs. Well, that’s offensive. “Pray God I won’t shove the spoon down your throat and share the taste with you.” I wink at the guy who keeps making weird grimaces. In all honesty, I should’ve killed these two, but after the call with my brother, I would rather stick around for a little longer than return home and face Laz’s wrath. Some
