Leah’s POV
“We’ve found her on our surveillance, she’s hiding out. It seems like she’s looking or waiting for something, come and look.” Tammy, one of our lead omega communicators, speaks quickly in one breath. “She’s over near the Concordat border by the Red Claw and Blue Moon crossing.” pointing to one of our many screens.
“What the hell?” Elyse exclaims. “How did she get all the way over there?” She looks at me confused.
“No idea, but she was the main designer on the tunnel system, she knows it like the back of her hand and she knew you were going to set off Bertha, so she probably took off just to get out of range and ended up there. But, why hasn’t she checked in? That’s not like her, an

Damien’s POV“This one is already of use to me and will be more effective in the coming weeks. He should not have been involved in your ridiculous games.” Alpha Max snaps at, I assume, the witch standing off to my left, but out of my line of sight. I couldn’t place it out in the woods, but her scent is different. I’ve never been around a witch before to know what scent markers they have to distinguish them from other creatures, but she has the faint scent of a wolf that isn’t someone else's scent on her. Maybe she is mated to a wolf and I am smelling her mate's scent since they blend when a couple is fully mated. If not that, could she be a hybrid?“He stumbled upon me, my lord, as I was casting enchantments as you instructed. He was strong enough to sense and cross through my protection barrier, I decided i

Leah’s POV“Alphas?” Tammy asks for our attention. “I know it's not my place, but I was thinking, while we were waiting for all of the systems to come online, about the problem we are having communicating with the groups we have sent out to retrieve our fallen.” She hesitates like she’s going to be in trouble.“Tammy, it’s ok, if you have any idea that might help us we want to hear it, no matter how crazy or out there it may be. You never know what could be useful. We want to know what you’re thinking.” I encouraged. Trying to break these omegas out of the habit of believing their thoughts and ideas are worthless has been a chore. The one thing that Elyse, Ellinore and I all agree on is that all contributions are helpful. Every project we have in place has been aided by id

Ellinore’s POV“Oh Shit! Flare, what are we doing here?” I ask my wolf. We were just heading to a tunnel to run for safety after hearing Elyse got the all clear to set off Bertha. I did not want to be in range of that thing at full blast. I had the pleasure of not believing Elyse when she designed the thing so she challenged me to be the test dummy. Not one to back down from a challenge and really not afraid of whatever she had in that shoebox sized container, I accepted.[Rewind 2 years - Bertha testing and combat training]“Grunt…Umph.” Is all I can say as Leah flips me onto my back with a superior smile on her face. I twist up to sweep her leg, but she jumps back out of my reach. I use the momentum to roll myself up to my fe
Love Conquers All Update!!!
Every 5-10 chapters , or so I am going back through and double checking my writing for continuity, grammar and any other errors. This is my first ever published work so it and myself are a work in progress. The more training that I do and the more I go back over my own work, the better I can make it. Feel free to leave constructive comments at the end of each chapter. If you feel more details are needed, or less for that matter I want to know. I have an outline of the general story, but as these characters grow some of them are starting to change and think differently than I had originally planned. This is a fun process, that I love learning about. Thank you for going on this journey with me!! Miss L

Leah’s POV“Checking comms.” I say to Jason. “I’m checking in every 5 minutes, text me if you don’t hear from me.”“Got it Boss” He replies and I growl. This in turn earns me a chuckle from him. “You dad and Elder John are with Luna Reis in the Blazing River Bunker, and they are kind of afraid of you right now.” Another chuckle. “They saw Bertha in action…” he trails off.“This is how I know you’ll be a good Beta, you only push my buttons enough to piss me off when you can follow up with good news. I should be to them in 20 minutes, have all the communicators check in with injury and loss statuses. I want all of our fallen ready for a burial fire tonight, we will celebrate their lives and their

Elyse’s POVWe are running through the tunnels to the Blazing River Pack bunker where Tammy’s grandma is helping with rescue and recovery.As we gain access through the bolted door with our bracelets, the sight that meets me is truly amazing. The bunker is huge, at least as big as the cold cellar we had to pass through to get from the Concordat pack house to the war room. It’s divided into several sections by shelving units and free standing storage cabinets. As we walk through the door we pass the area designated as the kitchen. It has 2 industrial size floor to ceiling ovens and 3 stove tops along the farthest wall where vent hoods can take the fumes up and out of the underground bunker. 4 double door refrigerators stand side by side perpendicular to the ovens creating a wall. Making a line down the center of th

Leah’s POV“What’s this about me mowing someone down?” I question calmly. Elyse made sure that I heard her rant to my dad. Clearly he’s saying something that’s got her feathers in a ruffle. She’s not normally one to verbally lash out to people. She saw me walk in and gave me a knowing look to keep quiet but listen in.My dad and elder turn towards me both turning white then a little bit green. Oh, yeah we definitely caught them hiding something. They have both been acting funny even before the attack started, now it’s time to make them squirm and tell the truth.“Hey Elyse, Tammy. Did you guys find what you were looking for? I ask them, almost ignoring my dad’s reaction

Leah’s’ POV“I’m sorry, did you say you had the means, but only needed guidance? How did you pay for all of this?” Elder John asks. The magnitude of realization showing all over his face.“Yes we have the means to handle any projects that we may want to pursue now or in the future. The neglect our leaders have shown us, we turned into a blessing instead of complaining about it like a curse. Any more information is o a need-to-know basis and neither of you need to know any more about what we have accomplished, strictly that we have accomplished it. Now back to the question at hand. What are you hiding from me?”They both look at each other warily. I am really tired of this chicken act. T
