Reagan

A day of sparring is my favorite way to spend my birthday. I’m not the party girl that my twin sisters are and I’m not the prim and proper Council member that my sister, Leana, is. At heart, I’m a fighter, just like my father. And since everyone here knew that I wasn’t their mate, they let loose and really fought me.

I took every one of them down.

Now, I’m in my bedroom, getting ready for my party. The pack sprites are here doing my hair in the beautifully intricate way that they have. My mother, my sisters, my brothers’ mates, Meadow, Lily, Riley, Aunt Grace and Aunt Cara are all here. The house is full of women and babies since each of my sisters and brothers have young children. I’ve grown up with a lot of family members in a loud, bustling packhouse, so the noise doesn’t bother me at all. If anything, it makes me feel more normal than I have in the last two days dealing with all of the male suitors who are here hoping to be my mate.

“There are still some people arriving, Reagan. But most everyone is here. Only a handful from out west are still unaccounted for. I think there was some sort of snowstorm or something that kept them from leaving three days ago,” Emlyn says.

She’s always been so poised, so composed. She’s a perfect Luna, a perfect mate for my brother. I wonder if there’s a male version of her that I’ll be mated to since I’m so much like Rich.

“If he’s not here, he’s not here. I’m sure he’s somewhere. I doubt the Moon Goddess is going to keep from having a mate simply because my parents had so many children.”

“Every one of you was and still is a blessing to me,” my mother says.

“Actually, I was thinking that the smart ones waited. I mean, all the men who came early got their asses handed to them today, Rea. So, not only are they leaving here without a Luna, they’ll be leaving with their pride bruised,” Leana says.

“Which just proves the point that none of them is worthy of my daughter,” my father says, walking in. “Ladies, may I have a moment alone with Reagan.”

Everyone stands. My father takes a moment to kiss all of the pups as they pass. Most of them are his grandpups, but even the ones that aren’t related by blood are family to him, just like they are for the all of the Guardians.

When everyone steps out of the room, my father eyes meet mine in the mirror that I’m facing. “That was some pretty fantastic sparring out there today,” he says proudly.

I smile brightly and turn. “Mom says I was a bit overzealous.”

He snorts. “Well, I think we both know that your mother is a kinder, gentler person than either you or I are,” he says. “You look beautiful, my daughter. But you always do. I want you to know that no matter what happens tonight, if your mate isn’t here, you always have a place here in the pack. But, more than that, I will take you all over the world to find him if need be. I only want you to be happy and I’ll do everything in my power to make sure that you are.”

“Thanks, Dad,” I say, standing up. Alayla and I agreed that we only want our fated mate. I’ve seen every one of my brothers and sisters, every Guardian find their fated mate and I want the love that they all share. I’m not willing to settle for less.

“Shall we go get this party started?” I ask him.

“May I have the honor of escorting the second most beautiful woman in the pack tonight,” he says, offering me his arm. My father has always been very clear that the most beautiful woman to him is my mother.

“I would be honored,” I say.

We arrive at the packhouse to the same sort of fanfare as last night, except more, if that’s even possible. I knew before I walked in the door that my mate wasn’t here. My father had glanced at me as we walked up and then squeezed the hand that was wrapped around his arm.

Now, I’m moving around the room, talking to the men who came hoping to find their mate and who will be leaving alone tomorrow, when I suddenly feel Alayla becoming restless in my head.

‘Alayla, what is it?’ I ask her.

Rather than answering, I follow my wolf's lead as she guides me and I excuse myself from the conversation I’m in. My nose goes up in the air and I notice several of my family members around the room suddenly turning their attention to me.

‘Alayla, what do you smell?’

‘Him,’ she purrs a moment before the scent of burned oak and whiskey fills my nose, making my head spin. I’m just dizzy enough that it takes me a moment too long to register the possessive snarl and the unfamiliar voice crying out to their Alpha before a large beautiful man is standing in front of me.

His eyes are wild with his wolf and before Alayla can call him what he is, our mate, he rips my head to the side and sinks his teeth into my marking spot.

I scream as pain ignites inside my body. I’m not sure if someone pulls him off of me, or if it’s my own Guardian power that blasts out of me, but he’s ripped off my neck, leaving bloody, torn flesh in its wake.

My hand flies to my neck, feeling hot, sticky blood oozing from my mating spot. Sickening betrayal slithers through me. He marked me. He marked me without my consent.

Alayla begins howling in my head.

“Angel, get her out of here,” my father snarls.

I can’t see him, can’t see the man who I was ready to call mate, because there are a wall of Alphas, Guardians, and royals between me and him.

My mother, Malin, and Quinn surround me and begin leading me up the stairs to the Alpha floor.

“Please don’t kill him. He didn’t know what he was doing,” I hear a man pleading. I stop and look down, seeing a man crumpled on the floor and another man standing in front of him. Circling the two men is a wall of angry people, my father and Rich standing in front of them. The heat of anger is thick around the room. Even without the pack link, I’d know that our entire pack is ready to kill this man, this Alpha, for what he did to me.

“The fuck he didn’t,” Rich snarls. “You dare to come into my pack and disrespect me, my sister, my family, and my pack like that.”

“Please, please, Alpha. He was nearly feral. Coming here was our last chance to save him. I know what Samson did wasn’t right, but he was so close to being put down. Please have mercy on him,” the man begs.

“Reagan ...” my mom begins but I hold up a hand. Who is this man who is begging for the life of his Alpha? Who is this person willing to stand in front of what must feel like suffocating, pulsing anger to try and protect his Alpha? And what type of Alpha warrants that type of love and devotion?

“Elias, step aside. Do not try to protect me,” a deep, rich voice says. It resonates inside me, pulling on something deep and primal.

‘Don’t kill him,’ I say to Rich and my father in the mind link. Both men’s heads snap up in my direction. The man on the floor lifts his head and even from here, I can see his warm, amber colored eyes which are filled with regret.

‘Reagan ...’ my father begins.

‘He fucking marked you, Rea,’ Rich snarls at the same time.

‘I am well aware of what he did to me, Richard,” I growl back. ‘But he is MY mate and I say he lives,’ I say, my tone brooking no argument.

Both men growl as they turn back to my mate.

“My sister says you live. For now,” Rich snarls at him.

The amber eyes move from my brother and back up to me.

“Come on, Reagan, let’s go,” my mother says softly.

I turn and let my mother lead me up the stairs so I can wash away the blood of my violent marking. But I already know that the mate mark won’t wash away.

    Eleven Years LaterReagan“Momma, are we going to see Tessa,” my daughter, Cammi, asks. We’re pulling into Rich’s pack lands having caravaned our way here from out west. It’s our first real vacation since the pups were born. We’ve come back home for short periods of time and the family has come to visit us for the birth of each of my seven children, but since the birth of our youngest seven years ago, we haven’t really taken a family vacation.We decided since Leander is taking his oath as Alpha and Rich is finally stepping down, it was time for us to come east and spend some time with the family. Then, on the way home, we’re going to take the pups to Araphyra and spend a few days there as well.Apparently, I’m more like my mother than I thought, never having enough pups to make me happy. Just like my mother, I ended up with three boys and four girls, only none of mine were twins. And also just like my mother, my oldest and my youngest are just like their father.Kieran loves all of ou

  • Savage   Epilogue 1: Kieran

    Six months laterKieran“Tessa! Grab your brother for me, please!” I hear my mate call as Tessa and I come in from our run.When Tessa went to spend time with Alpha Liam and Luna Angel, the two of them had worked with Tessa in the same way that a previous Guardian, Clint, had worked with Angel when he helped her regain her wolf. It had only taken a few weeks before Tessa had her first shift. I was disappointed that I hadn’t been there, but she was so excited, that I kept that to myself.However, once she returned home, Samson and I have taken her wolf, Rhea, out every day to run and get stronger. My daughter might have been born to two omegas, but she’s my daughter and I’m training her and her wolf to be a warrior.Once she got her wolf, I had her go through the process of accepting all of the ranked members of the pack, but before that, I had her accept me as her Alpha and Reagan as her Luna, giving her access to the pack link as well as our family link. I hear my son squeal as Tessa

  • Savage   Chapter 67: Reagan

    ReaganAfter spending a few days with Meady and Mody, we returned to our packhouse to find out that Petal was pregnant. That announcement was very exciting for the pack, but no more exciting than finding out that Silas found his mate and that she’s a royal vampire.Maeve and Meadow made her an amulet so she can walk in the sun and she very quickly took her place beside Silas as one of our strongest warriors. Having her here has been really good for the pack as she’s been teaching them about vampires in general, the good and the bad.While Ysabelle is teaching the pack about vampires, Petal and Mango have been teaching them about sprites. We’ve had two more sprite pairings in the last couple of months because our warriors couldn’t keep their wolves from licking the sprites. It’s worked out though. Sometimes, the harshest warriors need the gentlest mates to balance out their nature.About a week after we got back from the coven, we found out that we are having a boy. I thought Kieran was

    AsmodeusI hadn’t expected my sister to be mated to a werewolf, much less one I’ve spent several weeks with. But it does explain why she was so interested in the way I smelled when I returned home a few days ago.Ysabelle whisked Gamma Silas away, while Alpha Kieran stood by, staring as if the hinge in his jaw was broken.“Are you trying to catch flies, Alpha?” I ask him.“What?” he asks, frowning.“I think he’s telling you to lift your chin off the ground, my love,” Luna Reagan says.“Exactly. Come in, welcome to my home,” I say, looking at my gorgeous mate, the woman who will take her place at my side tomorrow.My coven, already overwhelmed with having one Guardian on the premises, were completely beside themselves having four more join Queen Leana. I had already warned all of them that if they so much as breathed out of line, I’d kill them. I will not risk offending my mate or the Guardians.“These are your future Queen’s friends. Disrespecting them means you disrespect her. Disresp

    ReaganThe day after my Luna ceremony, our guests started leaving. Cayd, Madelyn, and their pups returned home first. With Xander and Maeve staying to visit Mody’s coven, someone needed to go home to run the business.The day after that, Rich, Emlyn, Cohen, Malin, Emerson, Quinn and all their pups returned home with promises that we’d come visit after the baby is born. That same day, Mody and Meady along with Xander, Maeve, Leana, Drake, Tate, and Daphne all left to go to Mody’s coven.The last to leave were Clint, Riley, Aolis, and Lily. King Aolis wanted to spend a couple of days with his sprites and he also encouraged some other woodland creatures to present themselves to us, including some dryads and even a couple of leprechauns. After talking with them and Kieran, we agreed to hire them as our pack’s Techrechauns, just like they have in Araphyra. Lily and Aolis also made us promise to come visit and they insisted that we didn’t need to wait until our baby was born because Araphyra

  • Savage   Chapter 64: Kieran

    KieranI’ve had knots in my stomach all day. I know I shouldn’t, but it’s finally happening. My mate is finally becoming my Luna. I know that her accepting and marking me meant that she would never leave me, but this is one of the last ways that she will bind herself to me and this pack. This and getting pregnant with my pup, which I’m working harder on than just about anything I’ve worked on in my life.Samson snorts in my head. ‘Yeah, you didn’t even work this hard to keep me from going feral.’‘That is not true. This is just a lot more fun than trying to keep you from going feral,” I say, thinking about last night when I made my mate come so hard she couldn’t hold back her cries of pleasure, even knowing her family was all around us. If I have to hear her family going at it like fucking rabbits, they can bloody well hear my mate screaming her pleasure.And it’s not just her family, it’s all the Guardians, their mates, and now even Meadow and Asmodeus. I haven’t been able to walk int
