Thirty-Five
Reese
I had an abundance of free time to think on the long car ride home as the others dozed around me. I felt just as exhausted as they plainly were after burning the candle at both ends for so long.
The darkened sky and my full belly had my eyes drifting shut without my permission as one of Jax’s males drove the large van we were riding in towards my home. I desperately wanted to succumb to the blackness, but I was having trouble shaking off my niggling concerns about the threat the rogues posed.
The last thing we needed was to have to fend off an attack in our precarious position, but I recalled Oliver had informed me the elders’ allies had been quiet for the past couple of days.
Jax and Jace had supported his declaration with their own observations and reports from their males, so I knew we should be safe by all accounts.
I resolved on upping my caution when we stopped to refuel, but I mercifully slipped my heavy lids shut

Reese Scarlett wiggled out of my arms in response, laughing merrily as she shot me a mischievous look and dashed down the hallway in the direction of the front door. My wolf clawed at my skin to escape with the clear signs of her own animal shining brightly in her ocean-blue eyes, enthusing as she flitted away, “Let’s go!” I took off after her in an instant, feeling the endorphins flood my system as I gave chase after her, but I stumbled to a halt a minute later, barely managing to catch myself against the firmly closed door in front of us before I crashed into my immovable mate. “What’s wrong, Fire?” I asked, righting myself and reaching out to gently grasp her by the shoulders. She rotated in my arms without any further coaxing on my part, but I sensed the uncertainty emanating from her. Biting down into her plush lower lip, she transitorily drew my focus as she said, “I need to drink more of the herba

Reese I hugged my mate closer to my body, taking in a deep inhale of her lush, floral scent and getting a whiff of the smell of sex still lingering in the air around the room. My wolf was grinning like a fool in my head, figuratively of course, after the events of the night, and I was right there with him, despite the uncertainty of tomorrow’s meeting with my pack. I’d made good on my promise as soon as we’d arrived at the pack house, but Scarlett was apparently as tired as I felt because she conked out in my arms a few minutes after her next screaming climax. Another tidal wave of fatigue rolled in, and I found myself drifting amiss in the tumultuous sea as I slipped into dreamland an indeterminate amount of time later, as a result. The next morning, I awoke feeling better than I had in more than a month. I had my mate nestled into my side, and my claiming bite was adorning her neck, broadcasting the irrefutable fact that sh

Scarlett Last night was indescribable, words wouldn’t do the glimpse of heaven justice, and I wasn’t going to attempt it. Instead, I spent the majority of the morning lost in a daze as I relived the carnal activities Reese and I had partaken in at the hot springs, and later in our bed when we’d made it home. My mate’s brawny arms dragging me into the hard lines of his body in the balmy water had replayed in my head a hundred times. I vividly remembered the ensuing ecstasy he sent coursing through my system with his mating bite every time I thought about the imprint of his canines permanently affixed to where the slope of my neck ended. The strength of the orgasms he masterfully wrought on my body left me exhausted on a bone-deep level. I knew I had subsequently drifted off into a peaceful sleep in his arms after I had fallen from my high, thanking Luna for giving me a second chance at happiness as blackness encroached

Scarlett The next few days passed by, and I continued to put off asking Logan about the female bear shifters. There had been plenty occurring to keep my mind busy, but I knew I was using the events as an excuse. There had been a couple of attacks by rogues since we returned, mostly here and in the Eastern Province, but our males had thankfully been able to fend off the assaults with little damage incurred. Reese had also informed me about how Jax believed the bears were pulling back to plan their next move during one of our long nights entangled with one another. Apparently, the other alpha had sent scouts further into the bears’ land, feeling daring with their recent absence, and, oddly enough, there hadn’t been a sighting yet. I was worried about what Hunter was planning, and I had a sneaking suspicion I would be involved in some way, especially with the three remaining elders complicating things now. Two of t

Reese The last few days had been stressful, to say the least. The rogue wolves in the area had elected to renew their sporadic attacks, though there were no signs of the other menaces who endangered our future, thankfully. I had been in contact with Jace recently, and he confirmed he had been coordinating with Ryker to fend off a few minor spats that had occurred with the rogue wolves all over the Eastern Province, as well. All the same, I couldn’t stop thinking about the timing of everything, and my brain returned to pondering the situation with the rogues once more as I moved around the training grounds, monitoring the males who were sparring in human form today. I had never slacked in my job of keeping my warriors in shape and quick on their feet, so my males didn’t require much correction. Even so, I kept my keen eyes open, paying attention to their skillsets and tucking the information away for later. Dealing with rogues
Mated to the Alpha of the West Forty-One
Reese I had only been sitting in my office for a few minutes the next morning when Kyle found me. I had my hand poised on the receiver of the landline, getting ready to phone Ryker, but I leaned back in my chair upon the bear shifter’s entrance. Asher was set to arrive later with Mari and the leader of the dragon clan, Zacharias, so I was understandably on edge as I attempted to dot all my i’s and cross my t’s. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I wanted to be as prepared as possible given the numerous unknown variables surrounding the circumstances. The dragon shifters had been a mostly unknown entity before now, but the Alpha of the Eastern Province had smashed through that barrier. However, he hadn’t breathed a word of what he’d learned to date, so I was still ignorant of anything related to the other species of shifter. Scarlett had already checked in with me through mind link a few times due to the emotions I was putting o
Mated to the Alpha of the West Forty-Two
Scarlett I had no clue Kyle was the male who had figured out how to mask the bears’ scent, but it didn’t surprise me in the least after observing how competent of a healer he was. Obviously the news he’d been the brains behind the chemical weapon that had allowed the bear shifters to wreak havoc amongst our population wasn’t all sunshine and daisies, but there was a silver lining, irrespective. Kyle was well acquainted with the inner workings of how the compound operated, so I was convinced he would be able to find a workaround we could use to our advantage. Following, he proved me right when he informed me that all he lacked was a test subject. I loathed the feeling of emptiness pervading my being when Reese left the room, so I didn’t stick around the vacant office after Ronnie and I had successfully convinced her mate to allow a meeting between her and Kyle. I was craving company after the copious amount of free time I’d had
Mated to the Alpha of the West Forty-Three
Scarlett I was rushing outside in a flash to confirm Reese’s unbelievable report, but there was no denying my meek, blonde-haired friend was sitting astride a massive, gleaming dragon with her mate, Asher. I was assuming the dragon was Zacharias, but I wouldn’t know for sure until after introductions were made, which would prove impossible if he wasn’t able to land safely. The canopy of trees nearby swayed with the wind created by his flapping wings as he suspended himself in the air, no doubt looking for the ideal location to touch down. Really the only option was the fairly decent sized open stretch of grass near the pack house, which I noticed the dragon was currently hovering over, but he was ginormous and still took down a few pin oaks with his succeeding descent. I was just grateful he’d missed the house, but I didn’t think my mate would be as lax about the downed trees. I had registered Reese following after me,
