TIA POV

I woke up with a jolt. A searing hot pain ripped through my chest, and I found myself screaming in agony. I lost my balance because of it, high up in my tree. Crashing hard to the ground and folding into the fetal position.

“Meadow!” I cried out in panic as my vision blurred from my tears, and my small fist clenched my chest in burning pain.

I’m sorry, little one. I blocked it as long as I could. Meadow whimpered; she, too, was in pulsating sharp pains.

It was our pack bond being ripped away from us.

Why?

My body convulsed in uncontrolled pain, unlike anything that I have ever felt before.

“Meadow, what’s happening?” There was panic mixed in with the pain, pinching my voice.

The pack, it’s gone. I am sorry, Tia. Meadow whimpered at the loss of hundreds of innocent wolves.

I was stunned, momentarily forgetting the agonizing churning in my belly from the hollowness of my pack link. “Someone attacked us? Why didn’t I feel it sooner?”

I blocked the pain from you. I needed you to s

    TIA POVWe had only been walking for a few hours when something in the distance stopped us.“Help!” a small voice called out. It sounded close, and Meadow was just as eager to find the distressed person as I was.It is a child. Hurry. Meadow's sense of urgency pushed my feet harder as I ran toward taunting laughter and cries for help.There they were. I could see them from the treeline that I hid in.There were two young boys, no more than twelve, maybe thirteen. They were pushing a smaller girl between them back and forth, their laughter and open mockery of the little girl's fear and tears ate at me. It reminded me of when Hilary and Simon would bully and taunt me for crying, pleading with them to stop bullying me.“Crybaby!” One of those boys whined mockingly. “All you ever do is cry. Mum and Dad complain about the headaches you give them with all your tears and whining.”“Yeah, they can’t stand you when you cry. Big baby!” the other boy adds to the taunts.Their hateful words only

    TIA POVThe sounds of the birds' and woodland creatures' morning calls softly awoke me from my sleep. The smile that stretched across my face was something no one who knew me had ever seen. These smiles were always reserved for my oasis and my wolf, Meadow. To everyone else, I was incapable of joy and smiles. I was the notorious Ice Queen of Cherry Ridge, after all.I breathed in deeply as I stretched my arms out wide. Fresh morning dew only enhanced the purity of this moment. This was what I wanted. A small cabin, just Meadow and me, surrounded by our charming woodland creatures.Sounds like a Disney movie. Meadow yawned as she shook her fur coat with a stretch as grand as mine.“Wouldn’t that be great?” I asked whimsically. “Think about it, we already live a Disney movie life. The unwanted, unloved daughter of beloved rulers, no one knows the truth behind the masks worn. A villain takes hold, and the forgotten princess must rise above it all and save the kingdom!” I took a hero's st

  • Revenge of the Alpha's Bratty Daughter   Chapter 22

    NARRATIVE POVConstance held her son's hand tightly in between her palms. Her eyes rarely left Mile’s face. His features were soft and innocent in his comatose state. It reminded her of when he was just a boy, a willful young pup, but the calm balance of his twin brother, Tyson. She was reminded of when the twins decided they wanted to be monkeys for the afternoon, swinging from tree to tree.Tyson had a way of instigating adventure, as he called it. Miles never turned his twin away, despite how radical Tyson's ideas of adventure may be.One slip, and Miles fell fifteen feet from the tree after jumping from one tree to another to latch onto the same branch Tyson had just managed to latch onto.One jump, a concussion and one broken collarbone later.Miles had bumped his head on an unearthed tree root and was unconscious for hours. It felt like days when Constance sat in a similar room to the one she sat in now. Just the same, she was clenching her youngest son's hand and praying that t

  • Revenge of the Alpha's Bratty Daughter   Chapter 21

    NARRATIVE POVCouncilman Aven was disturbed by the report he received from his colleagues out in the field. Tums and Burns were expected to perform the send-off ceremony after assessing the degree of loss and whether there were any survivors.What they hadn’t expected was for someone to have already done it. Tums confirmed that Riggs detected four bodies within the Alpha family ashes, and that a female was the one performing the last rites for the pack.This would make sense. Hilary Henry was always a strong leader; Aven had witnessed it on several occasions when she would visit the Council offices with her father, Alpha Markus. She was kind, charismatic, and disciplined. She was an incredible negotiator, showing strong signs of her capabilities and leadership traits. It was no wonder that Hilary would have been mate-matched with one of the strong Alpha twins, Beta Miles Roberts of the Fisher Brooks pack.When they reached out to the Fisher Brooks pack, the council learned that Beta M

    NARRATIVE POVAfter stating his assessment, Riggs moved on to other rooms of the house.“Whose room, Tums?” Burns asked again, noting his colleague lingering around the desk in the room. Tums held up some paperwork, and Tia Henry's signature was on them.“It is Tia’s room. Their youngest daughter stayed here, but if that blood doesn’t belong to her, and she is the one performing the last rites, where is she?”“How could this be? Riggs must be mistaken. We have been informed that the youngest daughter of Alpha Henry is wolfless. She could not have survived an attack like this, nor would she have had the strength to do what she had done alone. You've met the girl; she is cold and uncaring of others. There is no way she was the one to do those last rites; she wouldn't have cared to do the work.” Burns challenged the theory, equally confused by Riggs' findings.“Riggs is the best for a reason, Burns. He has never made a mistake in his entire career.” Tums warned him. Riggs didn’t take kin

    NARRATIVE POVBy the time the Council's ordered warriors and investigators arrived at the Cherry Ridge pack, Tia had been gone for a day and a half.As soon as the SUV stopped in front of the pack house of Cherry Ridge, Councilman Tums and Burns stepped out to take in the surroundings.There was evidence of ash piled in front of the pack house. Councilman Burns crouched down and inspected the ash, running his fingers through it and lifting his hand to examine the fragments.“Bodies. Someone performed the last rites? This is the ceremony send-off ash.” Burns announced. He looked over his shoulder and met Councilman Tums' curious stare.“Awaiting orders, Sir.” Commander Skully stood tall before the lead investigator, Councilman Burns, nodded to Tums to give the orders as he turned his attention back to the ashes before him.Who would perform the last rites on a pack they attacked silently in the night?Councilman Tums took control of the warriors' directions.“I want this territory insp
