Normally when the Alpha visited this place was because he was in a bad mood. Normally it was because the pack was not training as they should. Sometimes there were issues with the family. Other times he just needed a stiff drink to help him relax after a stressful day. The worst days was when he could not stop the feelings that he had for Enza. Those days were the worst. Not only was he miserable on those days, but he was full of guilt. Fortunately, that was not the case today. The Alpha had a smile on his face and even the way that he was walking showed that he was in a great mood. The Alpha had a good week. The pack was big enough and strong enough to take over the Sullivan Pack. His smile grew bigger when he thought of Alpha Malcolm and Charles in his pack house. He did not know which one was better. Was it better to have such a powerful pack or the fear that he saw in their eyes.The strength of his pack had always gave the Alpha some degree of stress. But, not today. He fantasiz
It was certainly not like Alpha Paul to be at a lost of words when it came down to females. His words usually flowed smoothly, enchanting any woman. This woman was incredible. Of the hundreds of women that he had bedded, none of them had the beauty of this woman. His mouth moved and no words came out. He had to take a couple of deep breaths to still himself before speaking. "Sure, sit." Paul said using as few words as possible. He was not confident enough that he would not stammer like a green schoolboy meeting his first crush. Her face flushed prettily as the Alpha stared at her. "Thank you." She said in a low voice that Paul had to strain to hear over the noise of the werewolf pub.He watched her sit across from him. "I am sorry if I am bothering you sir. It's nowhere else for me to sit." She said. He glanced around the pub. Sure enough, there was no other seats. He did not know how to feel about that. He was hoping that there were a few empty seats. That would have meant that she h
Alpha Paul woke up to strange surroundings with a blazing headache. He had no memory of what had happened the night before. He tried to look around the room and head began to spin. He tried to blink away the blurriness in his eyes. Even that seemed to cause him pain. What the hell happened last night? The last things he remembered was sipping a glass of water and speaking with the most beautiful woman that he had ever seen. Amanda! Had she drugged him? Then he heard a soft moan and shallow breathing. He turned his aching head to see Amanda sleeping fully naked from waist up. He looked under the blanket and saw he was fully naked. He raised a brow. It was no doubt what he had done last night. He just wished he could remember it.A startling thought came to his mind. What if in his passion he had marked her. He squinted to focus on her neck. That one side wasn't marked. She stirred in her sleep. His breath caught when he saw a huge bruise on the right side of his neck. He hoped that he
Enza SpaneIt had been two weeks since Enza had given birth to baby Janae and it still seemed like a dream to her. She looked down at the perfect princess in her arms. In her opinion, there was no other baby in the world in the world as beautiful and perfect as hers. She knew that she was a bit biased, but she could not help her. To her, her baby was absolutely perfect.She still could not believe it. She was a mother. It seemed real, unreal and wonderful at the same time. It was an experience that she would not change for anything in the world. Her baby looked at her with a huge smile that melted Enza's heart. The more that she looked like her father. She shook her head. At least her daughter could have looked like her a little bit. Especially since she was the one that endured all the kicks, heartburn and sleepless night. Not to mention the horrendous pain to get her here. She kissed her on her little forehead, "Good thing your father is so good looking huh?" She asked her daughter t
She could not believe it. A few minutes ago, she was thinking of taking a nap. She was thinking how good life was. Now a nap was the furthest thing on her mind. Her wolf was battling her. It was driving her crazy. Her wolf wanted to stay and wait for Andre and Janae to return. She wanted to shift and run far away. Then maybe she could have time to sort out her thoughts. It felt as though her wolf could not understand facts she obviously knew..Their entire future was in jeopardy. There was nothing that a werewolf valued more than honesty in his mate. A mate was supposed to share everything with their significant other. Well she did not exactly lie. She only withheld important information. She sighed aloud. She knew full well that Andre would not see it that way. If anything, he would see it as she didn't trust him. Even though that was the furthest thing from the truth.The only thing that she wanted to do now was to shift or get transportation. It really did not matter which one. Sh
Her palms were sweating and she cold hear her own heart racing. She had been through many fights and interrogations and could not ever remember being so nervous. She had no idea how her husband was going to react to hearing her news. Her husband and her baby was everything to her. The thought of loosing them was nearly driving her to madness. Her thoughts were leaning towards not telling her husband everything. She would only tell him what was necessary. If she did have to tell him everything, then she hoped that their love would be enough for them to make it through this.She watched the myriad of expressions passing over her mate's face. It was obvious that he sensed that this was going to be a serious conversation. He also appeared to be uneasy. She could feel his uneasiness through our link. She realized that there was no perfect way to start this conversation. She also know that if she tried to sugar coat things that her husband would sense it. That would only make things awkwar
Nearly a half hour later, she had stopped crying enough to continue. She had not realized how much it still hurt until this moment. Andre kissed her on her forehead. âAre you okay?â He asked her with so much love. It gave her the strength to continue. Maybe he would understand her actions after all. She continued, â Anyway, my cousin had confessed to her mate that she wasnât a virgin and he rejected her.â She said. Angry tears began to fall again. At that moment, she wanted to kill Paul herself. âHer mate wanted her, but pressure from his family made him reject her.â She explained.At that moment, Andre looked very confused. She knew that he would try to buffer the damage that Paul had caused. Yet, in her eyes, there was no excuse for his behavior. âWhy did they not keep that information to themselves? Why did he have to tell her parents she wasnât a virgin?â He asked. She shook her head sadly. âAlthough I am from a traditional family, there is much more strict.â She explained. âOn the
Andre SpaneAndre did not know where he was going when he had left home. He felt himself wandering in circles with his baby in his arms. He felt numb and hurt at the same time. At this point, he had to be walking for at least fifteen minutes. It hurt him to his core that the love of his life had chosen to keep things from him. He wondered if he had been such a terrible mate that she felt like she could not trust him. Everything that she said had been shocking. Yet, the fact that there was a carbon copy of his wife out there, somewhere, was truly unbelievable. That carbon copy was his cousinâs chosen mate. He shook his head. It was all too much for him to take in.He continue to blindly walk. Then he looked up to see that he was at Paulâs mother home. His favorite aunt. He stepped on the porch and sit. He needed time to think. He noticed that Janae was wiggling in his arms as if she was trying to get to something. He turned his head to meet golden eyes and a form so massive, that it ne
Malcolm watched the way that Fenris was eyeing his son. It was very obvious that Fenris was not happy with the Alpha at that moment. He had received the same look from his own father. A part of him almost felt sorry for the Alpha. Yet, he was relieved that whatever had caused Fenris to be upset with his son had nothing to do with him and the Sullivan pack. Paul had never shifted from his wolf. That was never a good sign. If an Alpha merely wanted a discussion with another pack leader, he would arrive in his human form. Yet, when an Alpha was ready for battle, he would always arrive in his wolf. He would stand strong in front of his pack. Although Paul was in front of his powerful pack, he no longer appeared ready for battle. He actually looked like he wanted to be anywhere but where he was now. He only met his father's eyes for a moment. He hung his head as if he felt shame for some unknown reason. Fenris stared at Paul a few more moments. Suddenly the wolves started to leave and h
At the mention of traitors in the Spane Pack, Fenris turned to face Malcolm. "How would you know we are looking for traitors?" Fenris asked with suspicion in his voice. Malcolm made sure he kept his voice calm and steady. "They approached us a little while ago. They told us that they were members of the Spane pack. They offered to get us information for payment." Malcolm said. Fenris sneered and chuckled. "Of course, the honorable man that you are, you did not take them up on that offer." Fenris stated sarcastically. Malcolm looked him in the eye without blinking. "I am an honorable man, but I am not stupid. I know that it would only be a matter of time before Paul attacked us. I would be a fool if I did not get any information that I could." Malcolm said honestly."So, what did they tell you?" Fenris asked. Malcolm continued to hold his gaze as he responded. "They said that Enza was now weakened, because she had recently given birth. They suggested killing her because she is the Beta
Malcolm was trying to come up with a way that they could possibly get out of the situation alive. He did not fear Paul, but it was too many unknowns when it came to him. He had no idea if they were about to face a few wolves or hundreds. They had not figured out how Paul was so resistant to Vera's magic and spells. If Paul decided to declare war at this moment, there was no doubt that they would all be slaughtered in minutes. He looked at the sniveling pieces of wolf dung in front of him. If they had never came here, none of them would be in this dangerous position.He sighed, he could not think of any way out of this, except one. He hated the thought of diplomatic nonsense. Yet, what choice did he really have? If diplomacy was the only way to save his family, he would swallow his pride and try it. He looked at his mother. The stress had started to get to her. She was usually smiling and would light up a room with her presence. Now, she looked tired and older than ever. This business
Anthony leapt to his feet and pried his hands from Sibean's neck. "If you won't so scared of Alpha Paul, you would be able to listen and understand there is no danger." Anthony snarled. "Sibean is right. We slipped through the only opening. We saw all of Paul's lookouts on the road and slipped past each and every one of them." Anthony said smugly." After the Alpha and Beta had left, there was only Fenris and Enza left. They were socializing and not on a lookout." Anthony said to them with disgust at their cowardice. "When Fenris stood up to get Enza a drink, we slipped past them. I assure you we covered all of our bases." Anthony said. Sibean rubbed his neck where the king was choking him. "We left three wolves behind to keep an eye on them." Sibean cleared his throat. "Now let's talk about that extra compensation." He said greedily.Everyone in the room, including the guards was looking at them as if they had completely lost their minds. The king was red with anger. He was moving his
Sullivan Manor.Alpha Malcolm was startled at the sound of excited voices, followed by rapid knocks on the door. Malcolm frowned and glanced at his father. They certainly was not expecting anyone. Everyone they knew called ahead before arriving. Nobody came unannounced. He got an uneasy feeling. Something was not right. He could feel the unease in every fiber of his body. He opened the door and groaned inwardly when he saw eight members of Alpha Paul's pack. They were visibly afraid. Their eyes were wide and they were visibly shaking. He felt his rage rising. Why the hell were they here? They were never supposed to come to the manor. The only time that he expected to see them is when he summoned them to a secluded area.Yet, these jackasses chose to come to Sullivan Manor. "What the fuck?" Malcolm asked them. It was obvious that he was full of rage. "Why are you at my house?" He yelled at them. "Are you trying to start a fucking war?" Malcolm raged. He rubbed his temples. He could not
Keeping her eyes in tune without her surroundings without looking as though she was focused on any one thing, she spotted the first wolf slipping past the other. No doubt the first one was their lookout. The lookout must have signaled them that it was safe to pass. Then several more ran past. She concentrated as hard as she possibly could on Andre. When she felt the link connect, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Several wolves, ten or more attempting to slip past." Enza said through the link. Andre did not respond, but she could feel his tension through the link. That confirmed that he heard his message.Paul's father was watching her as she was connected to Andre. The link remained quiet. It made Enza wonder if her message was received. Then Enza heard Andre reply. "You and uncle take action!" Andre said. Enza gave Fenris a prearranged signal. Before her very eyes, Fenris shifted into the biggest and scariest wolf that she had ever seen. He was solid black with muscles protruding fro
Everything was depending on Enza at this point. Everything depended on how quickly she could relay information through the link that she and Andre shared. They could not risk using the pack link because that could tip off the traitor. It had taken Enza and Andre hours to be able to communicate through the link. They could always sense each other's emotion and rarely hear the other's thoughts. Yet, this was different. The entire packs safety depended on how effectively that she could communicate a clear message to Andre in seconds. She was extremely nervous. This was something that they never had done before. She knew that this meant everything. It also meant the safety of her daughter. She missed her daughter but glad that she had sent her away.Earlier She had sent Janae to Andre's parents as a precaution. The fact was that they could possibly be at war at any time. She did not want her daughter to become a pawn or casualty of that battle. After discussing it half of the night with A
EnzaEnza watched as Paul and Andre threw their bags of clothes into the car trunks. She watched as the men made a big show of checking to make sure that they had everything they needed for their trip. Their acting skills had to be commended. If anyone were looking at them, they would definitely think that they were leaving for a short trip. Only a few trusted members of the pack knew that they were no going anywhere far away. As a matter of fact they would be close by. Enza could feel a nervous sense of foreboding running through the pack. If she would be honest, she felt just as nervous as the pack did. Sadly, there was nothing that she could say to reassure the pack. She wished that she could tell them that everything would be ok. She wanted to be able to give them a pep talk and be confident that she was telling the pack the truth. She believed in the pack but she was concerned about a powerful witch that worked for the Sullivans. She felt a nervous feeling in the pit of her st
It was rare that Beta Andre was so serious. He could not forget the witch that attacked Paul. The average witch would be hard to deal with. Yet, this witch sounded like she was more powerful than they could handle. From what he understood this witch was no joke. She could easily take out their pack with a thought. This put the pack in a position that they had never been in. Paul had asked Andre to speak with the pack today, but had not given any reason as to why. He assumed that it was becausethe Alpha was too disappointed in the traitors in his pack to face them. Yet, Andre felt there was something going on that the Alpha was not sharing. The Alpha simply did not look well. He had been watching him closely and noticed he did not seem to be eating. It had started to bother him so much that he spoke to Fenris. Fenris reminded him that he was probably more love sick than anything else. Andre did understand how difficult the wait to marry was. After all, he was married to Paul's mate i
