I don't believe this is the placeAxel's POV Continued Sylvia and Edgar are leaving another pack today. They spoke to everyone they could but still no sign of her or her Uncle. My hopes in finding them together were all I had to hold onto these days.Of course, I still have no idea if she even knew that she had an Uncle, from what I knew from speaking to her, she didn't, but I pray that is who she found after running.She didn't have a single sound of fear nor worry every time we had spoken, she had a untraceable phone so she could contact me, she sounded, happy.I pray that her trust was given so quickly because she somehow managed to find a person she didn't even know existed. The Goddess herself guiding them together so she would be safe, be loved for a change, treated as a person not a slave that was disregarded by so many.I wouldn't blame her if I found her and she refused to ever come back to this place, a home where she was treated as if she didn't exist. Who would want to sho
But who would train the childrenAxel's POV Continued Now that I have found her again, all I want to do is run to her. Knowing that she's only been a three day hike from here this entire time makes my chest ache. She has been so close yet so far all at the same time.I didn't even think to ask about her Uncle, but what if she doesn't know she has family. I need to let her know. She is supposed to call me tonight so that we can talk a bit more about everything that has been going on, but first I need to deal with how to handle things with my father now.If I challenge him, we set up a time to fight, but like Raven had said to be before, that's putting me in the position to kill my own father. Despite the problems or his crazy, can I live with myself if I do that? It would be good for the pack, he is nothing but a damage to us all, someone that treats his people with hate as he dictates who does what now, that along with him forcing himself on she wolves.Most want it, they so desper
Raven's POV It's been crazy having Sylvia here with me, nice, but still a but strange. Someone I had always assumed hated me was so thrilled to see me again, to have found me, not just for Axel but because she genuinely wanted to as well.She has apologized profusely for the way she acted towards me or treated me but I understand the fear that many had if they went against their Alpha.I try to reassure her that I don't hold any ill will towards her, or anyone for that matter. What happened, happened, it is in the past, all we can do now is live in the present. Change things that we want changed now sp that in the future we can look back without the feeling of guilt or sadness over something that couldn't be helped at the time.When she first found me my fear was overwhelming every other sense around me, but after I spoke to Axel, hearing his voice again made me realize just how happy I was that I never gave into other feelings for someone else, my love for him still as strong as it w
I don't want your apologiesRaven's POV After I got off the phone with Axel this afternoon, once I realized that Sylvia was texting him about needing to figure things out there and soon because she watched me at my son's birthday party.What got her worried, it would seem, is how Hael was with Beta Jason. She had come to me asking about the relationship that we share with one another. I stink at hiding things, my face saying more than I wanted it to."Are you two in a relationship? I know you aren't marked but you two seem to be quite close.""He has been my closest friend this past year, he has helped me tremendously when it comes to Hael but he is Uncle Jason to him, he never tried to be his father if that's what worries you.""Just curious dear, I saw the way he came to your rescue when I got to close to you.""Everyone here is quite protective of me, the higher ups, like Beta Jason, know about Alpha Hunter so they are a bit over protective at times. But honestly I was terrified w
DadaAxel's POV Sitting down to eat with my mothers Gamma that managed to sneak her way back onto pack territory undetected thanks to a few guards that are on my side.She looked nervous but settled after a little while when she realized that, at least for now, she was secure in the house with us."It's so nice to see you again Alpha Axel, I have missed you greatly. Used to seeing you daily, basically your entire life, to nothing at all has been an adjustment. Almost like losing my own child.""I have missed you as well, I lost mom then you all to quickly. Where have you been? You don't smell of a rogue yet I know you are nonlonger a part of this pack.""I was taken in by my mates pack, he left his to come be here with me because of my position so when everything happened, he, he lost his life trying to protect me from your father, his family took me in along with the kids."My heart clenched at what she said to me, her mate dying at the hands of my father, but I still didn't know exa
My mother used to tell me this storyAxel's POV Continued My entire world froze around me as I looked into the eyes of my son, my eyes. I had an Heir, someone that I had to make the world around us better for, someone that will inherit my position in this life.He gave me a new sense of what I was truly fighting for, what I needed to change so he could see a true Alpha leading his people, not what is happening now by his own grandfather.I wish with all my heart that I would have known his name, that he was a he, when I told my mother she was a grandmother. She would have been so happy, of course, she was just knowing that Raven and I had a baby, it didn't matter if it was a boy or a girl to her, just the happiness of knowing she was a grandmother was enough.I watched my son giggle as he babbled on and on making me smile broadly while I would eye Raven every so often to see the the pure joy swimming in her eyes as she watched our interaction.After about twenty minutes he started rub
Tell him I'm hereAxel's POV Continued I was standing outside the front of the packhouse, looking up at the sheer size of the place always seemed so natural, welcoming, yet now it feels daunting, overwhelming as I swallow deeply taking it all in.I stood there for a few minutes, not trying to work up the courage to enter, but to just take a moment to remember that I had wonderful memories of this place, along with some of my worse one.I had a wonderful childhood in this home, spending days with my mother as she would tell me stories or chase me around the house, I could still hear the laughs we shared together if I just listened hard enough.The bad times of my father's jealousy, over me spending to much of my mother's time so she was away from him for longer than he liked. The way he dismissed me at times yet at others would dote on me just as much.Looking back I can see that he only doted on me in the eyes of other, it was for his image not for showing true affection towards me o
I will protect him with my life.Raven's POV I was in the kitchen preparing lunch for Hael when Edgar came rushing through the front door like a man on fire startling me as his mate with their two kids came rushing in behind him yelling for him."Edgar! Stop what is happening!?""Dad!""Dad, what's happening?"He stopped in front of me, his hands on his knees as he panted before trying to speak while breathing heavily between each word."Alpha... Hunter... knows... you... are... here!""What!? How do you, but... Okay."I took a deep breath calming myself down."He knows where you are, Alpha Axel doesn't believe he knows about Hael, he also may not know yet that we are here but we need to go, do you have a place we can hide?"'Uncle, Alpha Hunter knows where I am, I need you to have Jason come take Hael with Edgar, his family, and Sylvia to the safe house. Hael needs to be protected at all costs.''You too! You need to go with them.''If I go with them they will hunt to find me puttin
