I apologize for the delay in updating. I will do my best to update more regularly. I own a ranch also, so have been taking care of that.
CHAPTER 14 “THE MEETING” Bridgette’s POV: I had never experienced such a blissful night such as this in my life. Lucca and I made love over and over, and true to his werewolf stamina, he never seemed to tire. My heat was no longer raging, it had calmed to a mild warmth, calming, almost comforting, and being in Lucca’s arms only made it feel even more right. Lucca, at some point had put out the Do Not Disturb sign, and thankfully so. After another round of truly mind-blowing sex, I laid back onto my pillow and lazily stared at the ceiling. “It’s nearly 4pm, we have been in this bed nearly 24 hours.” My mate spoke as he glanced at his phone after picking it up from the night table. “I think I should order us something to eat. Any requests?” Lucca asked as he reached over and brushed a tendril of hair away from my cheek. I turned my head and smiled at him warmly, searching his bold beautiful dark eyes. “Not really.” I murmured happily. “I just feel so c
CHAPTER 15 “REALIZATION OF EVIL” LUCCA’S POV: I walked into the den of my packhouse once I had escorted most of the meeting members out. Only Alexander and Hudson had remained, lazily sipping on my favorite scotch, deep in conversation as I approached them. “This is going to be one huge mess if the kidnappings and murders are indeed Evan’s doing. And if one coroner gets his hands on a she-wolf before we do…” Hudson shook his head while he spoke, turning his attention to me upon noticing that I had entered the room. “I honestly never thought that he would go that wacko.” I said slowly rubbing the back of my neck. The other Alphas nodded in agreement. “He could singlehandedly expose us all, expose all supernatural’s to the human world, and I think the council has more fear of that then the kidnappings and killings. Wallace was less than pleased when he heard that woman was found by the river. Thankfully she was a human.” “Yes, but a human rap
CHAPTER 16 “THE DEAL” LUCCA’S POV: I could feel my heart fluttering in my chest as I raced back to the Hotel, Enzo was on a mission to reach our mate before anything could happen to her. This would be the last time I ever left her alone, ever, without being protected. I was furious with myself; how could I be so daft! Enzo raced through the forest as our mate’s life was dependent on it, however I had no idea if Bridgette needed us or not being we had still not established a mind link. I felt myself beginning to panic as the urgency to reach out to our mate began to rise, however I could feel myself begin to calm. I could sense Bridgette struggling to cease my panic. Although it was futile on her part, as my speed didn’t diminish, nor did the urgency to reach her. As I arrived within the city limits, I was careful not to be seen. A large black wolf would certainly panic the local population. I heard a giggle in my head, which forced me to pause as I reached the
CHAPTER 17 “NOT THE PLAN” BRIDGETTE’S POV: I am not sure what went through my mind when I seduced my mate. I reflected the amazing events over and over in my mind as I laid in his arms. Lucca was incredible, strong, beautiful, sexy, intelligent, characteristically, a perfect werewolf Alpha. I had been so terrified when I had first realized that he was my mate. So far from home, alone, and in a less than ideal environment to discover your fated mate would bound to spook anyone. I had felt that I had no choice but to run away, head back home where life was safe and familiar. But, come to find out, I was wrong, and after only a few days, laying in Lucca’s arms were exactly where I was supposed to be. I briefly thought about what my family would think about my mate, would they like him? My father, I honestly had no idea what he would think. I had not spoken to him since our blowout after I had arrived in America. He was livid with me, and had effectively cast me out
CHAPTER #18 “FOILED” LUCCA’S POV: I knew when I heard the rogue tell Bridgette that he had been paid to steal her from me that it had to be Evan James. His father, the former Alpha, had been entirely too interested in the concept that the Lycan King’s daughter was in West Virginia. I shook my head as I gathered the rogue up and tossed him over my shoulder. You would think that Evan’s father would register the potential wrath from the Lycan King if anything, and I mean if anything happened to his daughter, I could only imagine the terror unleashed upon us. “I hate to have to leave you again, but I am going to take this rogue back to my pack and get some more answers. You have been stressed enough for one night.” I said gently, leaning over and kissing her on the forehead. She closed her eyes and smiled at me warmly. “Of Course.” She murmured, no objection, like she knew what else was needed and didn’t question it. “Fool, you can’t le
CHAPTER #19“DECEPTION”LUCCA’S POV: I knew Evan was behind this from the get-go. He and his father showed entirely too much interest in Bridgette, especially Evan’s father for my liking. Additionally, the rumor that Evan and his father were collecting breeders didn’t sit well with me. The fact that it was immoral and disgusting, not to mention illegal per werewolf law made me wonder if the rumors were just that, however Evan’s odd behavior since the death of his mate made me ponder if the rumors were indeed true. And if I were collecting females, Bridgette would be one on the top of my list, risky or not. I walked over to the decanter and poured myself a scotch, honestly, I just needed a minute to focus. Just knowing that the father and son Alpha’s of the Green Mountain pack were responsible for the attempted kidnapping of my mate, made me wonder if they were the ones responsible for all the women that had mysteriously gone missing over the past few months. I slammed
CHAPTER #20 “FOR THE TAKING” EVAN’S POV: I smiled brightly as I walked out of the coffee shop, finally, an up close and personal view of my future Luna. Bridgette was magnificent, better than I could ever dreamed. Her deep auburn hair, her cyan blue eyes, and those curves! Her ass was going to fit in my hand like a tight glove, and despite her wearing an obvious sports bra and a layered tank under her sweatshirt, I could tell she had voluptuous bosom. What a specimen, and not only was her exotic hair and lavish body tantalizing, but her lovely face, high cheek bones and porcelain skin only made her more irresistible. Yes, she was the perfect Luna for me. “Stupid human, she’s a special wolf, a very powerful wolf, not one of your foolish conquests.” My wolf muttered at me coldly. I had not even thought about my wolf when I heard his voice bark in my head. Per usual, he sounded annoyed with me. “I realize that she is a special wolf, that’s why I b
CHAPTER #21“911” MEREDITH’S POV: I sat at my computer this morning, early September in Scotland was so serene and beautiful. I couldn’t concentrate as I stared out the window in stead of working on what I needed to do. I hadn’t slept well, premonitions kept staggering my mind. Many of them were blurbs and incomplete pieces, but the one that settled in my dreams, the most disturbing, was the one of my friend’s imprisonment holding a very pregnant belly. Her hand reached up into my mind, shrouded in darkness, concealed in a stone dungeon with iron bars, gasping “help me”. It was enough for me to startle awake gasping, drenched in a cold sweat. It was nearly 11am and the cold wind whistled against my single pain window, the vibrant orange leaves beating the side of the cottage. There was nothing more beautiful than an early fall, unfortunately, the weather was quite brisk already and the dampness forced me to wear my shawl over my shoulders. I glanced down at my
