“Beta Ricci, its good to see you,” Alex said as he shook his hand. “We were expecting your alpha…”
He trailed off at the end, leaving room for the explanation he clearly was expecting. I could feel his aura radiating power, he was pushing it out more than usual and it was domineering. I felt myself get hot just feeling him show off a little.
The beta cleared his throat, clearly the three alphas surrounding him was getting to him, my alpha in particular.
“Alpha Lorenzo send his regards, they had planned to come but the Luna got sick at the last minute. She is in the last few weeks of her pregnancy and didn’t feel well enough to travel so he sent me,” Ricci said while he wiggled his fingers at his side. I watched him carefully and felt like he was lying about something, hiding something.
Alex, Garcia and Schmidt showed the same concern on their faces.
“Ah, well that is un

{ Raine } It has been 2 weeks since the barbeque. The day following the Alpha from France arrived and the meeting was held between the 5 of them. I learned from my mate afterwards that the rogue attacks here were the smallest of them in the European area. The other packs were getting attacked even more often than us and they agreed, it wasn’t the usual type. They were organized and seemed to be testing our borders, our protection. Our pack was the most protected with the most warriors so we hadn’t had many issues yet. The smallest packs were having the largest trouble, some had even lost members. I watched as my mate was drawn into full Alpha mode. This was a big problem and he went into protective mode. After the meeting Alex and Car packed bags and headed out to Germany with Schmidt. From there they checked in on smaller packs including England, Austria and the few select others that we hadn’t gotten correspondence back from. The large

I said goodbye to Anna and headed to find Nel. He was out at the training grounds along with about half the pack. Ever since word of how big this rogue problem is got out the pack members have stepped up their training. The few who had only taken beginner were now in the advanced class working on attack moves and Nel had created an elite training class for the top warriors to advance even more. I had watched as this pack went into potential war mode, and while it didn’t look a ton different from the grand scheme of things, the overall moral and little details had changed it was a different air around. “Hey cuz,” I said as I approached him. This was his favorite greeting for me and it had rubbed off on me. “Hey!” he said cheerily. He was sitting under a tree drinking a water and watching the top warrior who they all properly nicknamed Tank, leading the elite class for the afternoon. “Are you free for about 10 minute

{ Raine }Fury filled my veins as his voice filled my ears. It wasn’t his voice as much as what he had dared to call me. I tensed in my grandmother’s arms and I heard her apologize about a dozen times straight into my ear.“I tried sweetie, I tried to say no, I begged the alpha, I swear,” she told me. My heart broke for her, I wasn’t mad at her by any means. My anger lied elsewhere and I needed her to know that.“Abuela, I know. I know.” I kissed her cheek and walked to Nel without sparing a glance at Matthew. I saw the phone to Nel’s ear and I knew damn well who he called, the one voice I needed to hear to calm down.“.… we have a probl-”I reached out and grabbed the phone from him and pressed it to my ear, desperate to hear his voice before I tore matthew’s head off. I filled him in and I could hear the a

“Alex..” she breathed out as if she didn’t believe it was me.“I’m here baby, how are you?”She rolled over and the blanket fell off of her down to her waist and it was then I saw that she was wearing one of my shirts. She looked hot as fuck and I was now having trouble focusing.“I missed you… I,” she stopped talking and I looked back up to see unshed tears in her eyes.“What is it?” I asked as concern took over. I looked between her eyes and waited for her to answer.Instead, she glanced at my lips before she crashed hers into them. She pushed against me, slipping her tongue in my mouth and pouring emotions into the kiss and into our link. She missed me. She wanted me. Oh fuck, she wanted me.I pulled away and looked deep into her eyes. I needed more confirmation, more information despite my

He climbed off of me after a few more kisses and stood up in all his glory as he walked to the bathroom. He turned on the shower and then came back to the bed and scooped me up, earning a shriek from me at the sudden motion. He laughed and carried me to the shower before setting me down.“I just bathed,” I told him.“As did I, however we could both use another one,” he said, with a glint in his eye. He wasn’t wrong.We climbed in and I pulled my hair up in a bun since it didn’t need another wash. We washed each other with his luffa and as his hands roamed my body and I felt his not so little friend at my butt I knew this wasn’t going to be a short shower. He picked me up as I wrapped my legs around him like we had done once before only this time he pounded into me against the shower wall until we were both screaming each other’s names.We were standing

{ Raine } I didn’t even have a full two minutes to really absorb that I had an aunt before his irritating voice filled the room. I had only spoke to him once but I remember his voice perfectly. The first time I heard it my wolf was overjoyed. This time she wanted to rip his head off. I took a deep breath and took my aunts hands in mine. “Lora, Auntie, I am so happy to meet you. Really, and I want to be very clear, that the anger you are about to feel coming from me, has absolutely nothing to do with you,” I told her firmly. She smiled back. “don’t worry honey, mom and dad explained everything. I understand,” she told me as she squeezed my hands and pulled away from me, moving aside so I could lay eyes on Matthew. I looked him over and couldn’t help the slight uptick in disgust at ever thinking he was so handsome. He was good looking, yes, but the more I looked at him th

He pulled my hands and dragged me into his office, letting me slide in on his lap while he pulled out his laptop and went to work, explaining everything as he did it. He was sending his two best trackers to meet Schmidt’s best trackers. Schmidts were the best in the world but Alex’s were top notch as well as being better fighters if they found trouble. Together the four would be tasked with information and infiltration. Apparently they were experts and Alex had every confidence in them.“We have information about these rogues but what we really need is the hierarchy. Are they run by one? A few? A rogue alpha or king? Is there a few leaders to make it so there is one per area or just one single guy calling the shots? What are they really after, death or something specific? These are the questions that we need before we even consider war.”The word rolled off his tongue so simply, but as it hit my ears it felt so heavy.

{ Alex } I woke to the sound of rain hitting the window softly and an irritating vibrating noise that made me groan. I rolled over looking for my phone along my nightstand. I finally found it and glared at the text message coming in from Nel. I rolled back over, running my hand over the bed which was apparently empty. I opened my eyes again and searched for her. The rain on the window got harder and drew my eyes over to the balcony doors which were swung open. I sat up and looked out them to see my mate standing on the balcony in the rain. Her back was to me and she was standing with her hands out to her sides. I pulled myself out of bed and walked towards her, growing more concerned as I watched the rain increase around her, falling faster and rolling off her shoulders. “Baby?” I said as I reached the balcony door. She didn’t react. She stayed absolutely still so I repeated myself, but still
