Reiner POV Voicemail again. Was this Alpha purposely ignoring my phone calls? I slammed the phone down. I suppose I deserve this; I did ignore her, and Chase gave her that awful excuse. I picked up a stack of papers waiting for my signature. Oh well, I would try again. I had been signing papers for a few hours when my phone started ringing. Ah good, she was finally calling me back. “Hello Alpha Reiner speak,” I greeted everyone this way. I couldn’t hide my disappointment when a male voice responded. “Good afternoon, Alpha, my name is Greg Peters. I am the organizer putting together the Alpha summit this year. As you know the alpha summit will be taking place in the shadow pack territory this year. Due to recent events, I have been asked to extend an invitation to all those who do not usually attend. The alliances have decided that the Alpha Summit this year will be mandatory. Failure to attend will result in a termination of all agreements with alliances and a
Myla POVWhat the hell was that about? Did that jerk really just ask me to sleep with him? Grrr! Alphas are all the same! They think they will get any woman because they are alphas well, I’m an Alpha too! Just wait till the Alpha Summit, I will teach him to mess with me. I could feel my wolf scratching at the surface. Calm down I told myself. He isn’t worth the trouble. I could still feel the anger rolling off me in waves. I stood up heading towards the door. The best way to let off some steam? Workout. A few hours later, I felt somewhat better. I wiped the sweat off my face as I headed up the stairs to my suite. As I entered the main lobby, I heard the sound of laughter. I listened to find the source. It was coming from the dining hall. Quietly I made my way to the door. I peered around the corner to see Cobalt and Layla laughing like old friends on the stage. Cobalt was reciting some bad Shakespeare and Layla was laughing hysterically. They didn’t notice me
Reiner’s POV Driving through the pack lands of the famed Alpha Myla showed me why she was so revered. Her territory was huge. Square miles, it was bigger than mine by about 10%. I watched as we passed beautiful farmlands and amazing forests with trees taller than any I had seen before. The tall guard sitting across from me was intimidating even to an Alpha like me. “I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name,” I offered trying to at least be polite. “That’s because I didn’t tell you,” he grumbled not moving his gaze from my face. “Tough crowd,” Chase said from the seat next to me. He had insisted on coming along claiming he need to find “fresh hotties”. I wasn’t sure that was such a great idea. “We will be arriving in five minutes,” the driver announced. He was also a guard but, at least he was a bit less intimidating. As we drove down the cobblestone street, we passed groups of wolves training. Some were sparring, other
Myla’s POV I swear I had pulled out every outfit in my closet. Why was I so worried about how I looked? Did I really care if I impressed this guy? I heard my door open, and Jade enter. “In here,” I called out reaching for another dress, yanking it off the hanger. I tossed it into the pile behind me. “Oh, my,” Jade said echoing my feelings. “I know right? All these clothes yet I have nothing to wear.” I sighed as I looked at the pile of discarded clothes. “Myla, you are crazy. You look beautiful in anything. You could wear a paper bag and still look gorgeous,” Jade tried to comfort me. “You are truly the best friend anyone could ever ask for,” I reached over and pulled her into a hug. I suddenly knew what I would wear. Fifteen minutes later, I was heading down to meet the Alpha. I froze at the top of the stairs. What is that smell? I couldn’t resist the mint chocolate scent streaming from the dining hall. Mint choc
Reiner's POV When she entered the hall, I instantly knew she was mine. She stood there looking around for the person she knew was her mate. As our eyes met, it all made sense, the feelings of jealousy when the driver said she was hot, the pull I felt towards her, and the inability to forget the sound of her voice which always left me wanting to call her back. She was stunning. Her long black hair flowed loosely around her face. Her ivory skin was highlighted by the contrast of her jet-black hair. Her petite frame with her perfect hips. Her plump lips seemed to beg me to kiss them. Her high cheekbones, and her eyes, I don’t think I had ever seen eyes that green before. She was of average height and her legs were sleek and muscular. I wondered how many wolves had dreamed about her being their mate. She was dressed in tight shorts and a cute little tank top. I could see the outline of her abs under her shirt. This wolf is not just smart and an extraordinary Alpha, she was also a stunning
Myla's POVTo think, the Alpha I didn’t want to meet, is my mate. The Moon Goddess certainly has a funny way of doing things. I sat with him watching the others dance. This had been one of the best nights I could remember. Cobalt had come to say hello to Alpha Reiner. He introduced Layla who was a little nervous as she had never been part of a pack before. She had been born to rogue parents who had been killed during a structure fire. Her mom had thrown her to a firefighter before she was overcome by smoke. They didn’t know what to do with her. The firefighter wanted to raise her but, his mate said no. She had been placed in the orphanage. Strangely enough, Cobalt’s parents had passed the same way. I was feeling relaxed, having my mate by my side seemed to give me a feeling of peace. I never wanted this night to end. The music stopped, and I heard Barrett’s voice float through the silence. “I would like to have our very own Alpha Myla c
Myla's POVAs I reached the source of the scream, I saw the attacker. He looked similar to the one I had killed only he was bigger. I didn’t care how big he was, he would not hurt anyone again. I leaped on him knocking him to the ground. I could hear my warriors coming, I knew they were close. I could scent my mate; I knew he would come. I felt proud he would join my warriors. The intruder grabbed me by the leg trying to pull me off. Hell no! I wouldn’t give in that easily! I sank my teeth into his shoulder, I bit down as hard as I could. His shoulder made a horrible cracking sound as his bones snapped. He roared with pain. It wasn’t enough, I wanted him dead. He grabbed my jaw trying to make me let go. I obliged, as he pulled me back, I grabbed his throat using his own momentum to snap his neck. His body dropped to the ground just as my mate reached me, followed by my warriors. I jumped off the body looking for the source of the scream. I shifted not caring that I was stark naked. I
Reiner’s POV I lay in her bed, surrounded by her scent mixed with mine after we marked and mated each other. I hadn’t expected sex with my mate to be so different from the sex I had before. It was more intimate, it meant something. I guess that’s what they mean by making love. I wanted her to stay but Evie needed her. That little girl had been through so much. She needed her more than I did. I had been lucky; I had grown up with both of my parents. I had close friends and family. We had family dinners every night. On Sundays, we had our family over and had a big dinner. I felt a wave of sadness wash over me. I jumped as Myla’s voice was in my head. “Are you ok? Why are you sad?” “I told her it was nothing and I had just been missing her.” I felt her happiness come through the bond. The mate bond gave us our own link to each other which was separate from the pack link. We would also feel what each other is feeling. It was a way for mates to know if their partn
