The ceremony was quick; the blood pact with the sacred knife under the full moon and the merging of blood in the traditional room was fast and done with, thank the fuck for that. I thought for sure that any moment the scared little rabbit of a woman would flee and I would have to hunt her down and drag her back just to appease my damn wolf. The thought made him growl his approval. The moment he caught her scent when I took a whiff of her, he was adamant that this female belonged to him, and I’d be damned if I could get him to listen to any sort of reasoning. My wolf didn’t understand what a risky hatred investment purchasing Blaire Ashbourne would be. The potential for so much backlash would be immense. Still, I went against my better judgment and logic and bought her anyway. Partially to make my wolf happy but also waking up to a woman that gorgeous wouldn’t be a hardship I guess. The boys also all agreed that the benefit of having a beauty like Blaire outweighed the trouble her ownership would cause. Whatever her father threw my way would be worth it, knowing that she was a part of our pack against his wishes. I watched from the rearview mirror as she tried to make herself as small as possible in the backseat. She was sandwiched between Jason and Tony, their big frames making it nearly impossible for her not to touch them. It was cute really but my possessive wolf didn’t like the fact that other men got close to her body and mixed her scent with theirs. It would be impossible, not to get their scent on her when she’s married to an Alpha with five large brothers. It was unconventional but not unheard of to marry a woman from the Bind and pack match, dominate wolves like I loved searching for a powerful mate, rather than buying one-off, I didn’t intend to buy a mate, I just wanted to watch a show with my brothers when I heard Jacob Ashbourne hidden daughter would be at the pack match. But from the moment I met those eyes of hers, my wolf wanted her for himself and I had to convince my brothers a great deal about how she would help in giving me and the pack enough pups and also how it would be the best plot twist revenge for her father. My brothers had been with me since I could read words and hunt, our bond strengthened the moment our family went down, I knew they would always be part of the way I ran and functioned throughout my life. Having a mate was good, but sharing a house? Creating a new family with the added number Blaire? It just seemed like the next step in our years of running the pack together. I pulled up the driveway to our place, a three-story glass house nestled between thick trees and forest. Our closest neighbor was at least half a mile down the road, giving us the freedom to do what we wanted out here and be as loud as we wanted. Not like we were that loud, but men can be wild when they get a little alcohol in them, so we have had our moments. After parking the BMW, I got out, going directly to the trunk to grab her bag. It was a small, purple bag, probably carrying just the bare essentials if I had to guess, but I would change that the first chance I got. She may have been bought as a form of payback, but I wouldn’t treat her poorly because the fact remains she was my mate. After shutting the trunk, I rounded the vehicle to see her standing next to Orion and Caspain, staring up at our house in awe. I shifted a bit uncomfortable, it was a nice place, but nothing to stare in wonder at. Or maybe she was disgusted or irritated? Please don’t let it be disgusting. Did AshBourne really treat his daughter like a little queen, giving her so much in life that my little home, the home that had been in my family for generations, embarrassed her? Before I could ask what she was staring at, she spoke, so quietly I almost didn’t hear her, “It’s amazingly beautiful.” My chest suddenly felt lighter, but I didn’t dare acknowledge it; instead, I knocked Lanny’s shoulder lightly with my own. “Let’s go then, we wouldn’t want the Ashbourne queen to be cold, and the sun is setting.” “Marlowe.” I turned, looking at her in confusion. “What?” “I am a Marlowe now, not an Ashbourne.” Damn, she was right, and the realization had my cock rising, urging me to claim her, own her, making it so official that anyone who passed her would have no doubt who she belonged to. Instead, I turned around and nodded. “Let’s get her inside.” She followed meekly behind me, the rest of the guys trailing behind her, no doubt wondering how the next couple of days would be with her in the house, the house at least would have a touch of a female. When we reached the front door shaded by the covered porch, I reached into my pockets, grabbed my keys, and inserted them into the door. I felt the lock click, and as I twisted the knob, I turned to say, “Welcome to your new home, Blaire .”

BLAIRE I felt all eyes on me, waiting to see if I decided to step through or spend the rest of our marriage outside on the porch. As appealing as spending time on this porch was, I knew I had to move forward. Home? Well, I hadn’t quite gathered enough nerve for that. But, it turned out I didn’t have to. Before I could even say something or move forward, strong arms nudged me from behind and gently pushed me to take a step “Aren’t you going to take a step?” Jason asked. I nodded at him stepped into the house and turned to look around as I looked up into Lanny’s laughing light green eyes. “Your home looks nice,” I whispered. “Really? I’m sure this is nothing compared to your old man's house, ma’am.” He raised his eyebrows at me, I’m sure they all had different thoughts at the moment, but I really didn’t care. “I do think your place is good though, you guys can stop looking at me weirdly please .” I stood and faced all of them, feeling self-conscious about how they thought of

Blaire A strange warmth spread through my chest as I touched the cool silver pendant resting against my skin. The weight of it felt heavier than it should—like it carried more than just metal, but meaning, responsibility, and something deeper I couldn’t quite name.The room was silent except for the lingering echo of our shared howl fading into the trees outside. The brothers watched me, some with curiosity, others with approval. It was strange—being the center of attention, yet not feeling as suffocated as I expected.Fredrick’s hand remained on mine, grounding me. “Are you alright?” he asked, his voice gentle, searching.I swallowed, my fingers brushing against my pendant again. “I… I think so.”Lanny grinned, his green eyes still twinkling with amusement. “Your eyes are stunning like that, Blaire. But don’t go thinking that means you can boss us around.”Caspian smirked. “She is our Luna, though.”Luna.The word landed heavily, making my breath hitch. My wolf stirred inside me, so

Blaire The forest was alive with the sound of our howls, the energy of the ceremony still crackling in the air as we stood together in our wolf forms. My senses were heightened—every rustle of leaves, every shift of Fredrick’s powerful frame beside me sent a thrill through my body.I had never felt this… wild.Fredrick stepped toward me, his silver eyes locked onto mine, glowing with something deeper than instinct—something possessive, claiming. His dark fur brushed against mine, sending shivers down my spine. He let out a low growl, not of warning, but of hunger.For me.As if the bond itself had a will of its own, I felt the pull—primal, undeniable. My wolf answered his, my body already anticipating what was to come. The moment stretched between us, thick with tension, before Fredrick turned and sprinted through the trees.A challenge.A chase.My heart pounded as instincts took over, and I leaped after him, my paws kicking up soft earth as I followed. He was fast, weaving through

Federick The dawn painted the sky in streaks of gold and violet, the last whispers of the moon retreating beyond the horizon. My body still hummed with the aftershocks of the night, my bond with Blaire now sealed in more ways than one. She lay beside me, wrapped in my arms, her hair a tangle of wild waves across my chest.She was mine.I had claimed her under the moon, under the laws of our kind, but something in me—something ancient—felt as if I had known her far longer than time allowed.Her breathing was slow and steady, but I knew she wasn’t asleep. She stirred, nuzzling against me, her fingers tracing lazy patterns on my skin.“Morning, Luna,” I murmured, pressing a kiss to the top of her head.She made a sleepy sound, but then, to my amusement, she groaned. “I don’t think I can move.”I smirked. “I did warn you.”Blaire lifted her head just enough to glare at me, her emerald eyes still glazed from the night before. “You’re way too proud of yourself right now.”I chuckled, tight

Blaire The sound of laughter echoed behind me as I ran and stormed into one of the rooms that had Frederick’s wolf scent, , my face burning with frustration. Fredrick was right on my heels, his shoulders shaking with silent amusement. “You think this is funny?” I snapped, turning to face him. He leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed over his broad chest, his silver eyes twinkling with barely concealed laughter. “A little.” I narrowed my eyes. “They were placing bets on us!” Fredrick smirked. “On how long you’d last before running away screaming? Yeah, I know.” I groaned, rubbing my temples. “This is what I signed up for, huh? A pack full of overgrown children?” Fredrick chuckled. “You’ll get used to it.” I sighed, letting some of my irritation slip away. Truthfully, I didn’t mind his brothers as much as I pretended to. Their teasing was annoying, sure, but there was an undeniable warmth in it. A familiarity I’d never experienced in my father’s pack. And maybe tha

Blaire The night air was crisp, carrying the scent of pine and the distant hum of the forest. I followed Fredrick and Orion through the winding paths of the pack’s settlement, my heart pounding with each step. The main hall loomed ahead, its wooden structure dark against the moonlit sky. Unlike the lively atmosphere of the packhouses, this place was solemn—almost sacred.Fredrick’s pace was steady, but the tension in his shoulders was unmistakable. He hadn’t said much since Orion announced the elders’ summons, and that silence unsettled me more than I cared to admit.Finally, I broke it. “What exactly do they expect from me?”Fredrick exhaled, his silver eyes catching the moonlight as he glanced at me. “They want to know if you’re strong enough to be their Luna.”I scoffed, trying to mask the nerves bubbling in my chest. “Haven’t I proved that already? I survived your brothers’ teasing, and the mating ceremony, and I haven’t run back home screaming.”Orion, walking just ahead of us,

BlaireThe rogue launched itself at me, a blur of muscle and fury. My instincts screamed at me to move, and I barely had time to throw myself to the side. Claws slashed through the air where I had stood just seconds ago.The elders remained seated, their expressions unreadable, as if watching a spectacle they had seen countless times before. I had no time to wonder how many had stood in my place—how many had failed.A guttural snarl tore from the rogue’s throat as it pivoted, its bloodshot eyes locking onto me again. Its movements were erratic, almost wild, but there was intelligence in them too. A dangerous combination.I steadied my breath. Fear would get me killed.My wolf stirred beneath my skin, urging me to shift, but something inside me resisted. No. I needed to prove I could do this on my own.The rogue lunged again, but this time, I was ready. I ducked low, sweeping my leg out in a sharp arc. My foot connected with its knee, and the rogue stumbled with a snarl. Seizing the mo

Frederick Blaire was hurt.It wasn’t a fatal wound, but the sight of blood staining her skin sent something dark and violent curling in my chest. I knew the elders wouldn’t go easy on her, but watching her fight—watching her prove herself in ways I already knew she could—made it impossible to stay still.I had wanted to tear that rogue apart for even touching her.But she handled it. She won.She wasn’t just strong—she was calculating. Ruthless when she needed to be, merciful when it mattered. She had chosen not to kill the rogue, and while Tobias saw it as a weakness, I saw the truth. Blaire had more control than most warriors I’d trained.She was meant to be Luna.I led her out of the elders’ hall, keeping a firm grip on her waist. She was steady on her feet, but I could feel the exhaustion in her frame. Her body was still adjusting to the changes from our mating bond, and now, she had just endured a brutal trial.I wasn’t sure if she realized how much she had changed since arrivin

BlaireThe morning air was cold and sharp, biting through the thin fabric of Fredrick’s shirt that I still wore. It smelled like him — cedar and smoke — a comfort I didn’t want to let go of. But comfort wasn’t something we could afford now. Not with Jacob closing in.Fredrick’s words from the night before still echoed in my mind. He trusted me. Finally, fully. But trust didn’t mean he wasn’t still scared for me.I wasn’t scared, though. Not anymore.I’d spent too many years under my father’s shadow. Too many nights wondering what freedom would feel like. Now that I had it — now that I had Fredrick and this pack — I’d die before I let Jacob take it from me.The sun barely peeked over the treetops when the pack gathered in the clearing. Fredrick stood at the center, his brothers flanking him like a wall of muscle and loyalty. I took my place beside him, lifting my chin as the wolves turned their eyes to us.They didn’t look at me with doubt anymore. Not after the way I stood beside Fred

FredrickThe moon was still high when I woke, though dawn wasn’t far off. Sleep had been impossible after Selene’s warning. My mind churned with plans and possibilities, each more dangerous than the last.I slipped from the bed carefully, not wanting to wake Blaire. She stirred anyway, her body curling instinctively toward the warmth I left behind. Even in sleep, she sought me. The thought stirred something deep in my chest — a fierce, protective ache.I leaned down, brushing a kiss to her temple. “Rest, Blaire,” I murmured. “I’ll handle this.”I wasn’t sure if I was reassuring her or myself.The house was silent as I moved through it. My brothers were already awake, gathered around the long wooden table in the main room. Orion leaned against the wall, arms crossed, his expression grim. Caspian stared into his untouched mug of coffee like it might give him answers. Tony paced restlessly, his jaw tight.They all looked up when I entered.“We’ve got trouble,” Tony said without preamble.
THE ALPHA’S FATED MATE Chapter 36
BlaireThe moment the unfamiliar howl pierced the night, the warmth of the fire and the laughter around us died. The air shifted — the comforting scents of smoke and food were drowned out by something sharper. Something wrong.Fredrick was on his feet in an instant, his body tense, his eyes flashing silver as his wolf stirred beneath his skin. His hand lingered on my arm for a moment, grounding me, before he stepped forward. The pack fell silent, waiting.Another howl echoed, closer this time.I stood slowly, heart pounding. A cold weight settled in my stomach. This wasn’t a stray wolf or a lost traveler. This was a message.Fredrick’s voice was low, steady. “Orion, Caspian — perimeter. Now.”His brothers didn’t hesitate, disappearing into the shadows without a sound. The rest of the pack stirred uneasily, some rising to their feet, others lowering their heads, ears pinned back in submission.I swallowed hard, my throat dry. “Fredrick… do you think it’s him?”Jacob. My father.Fredric
THE ALPHA’S FATED MATE Chapter 35
FredrickThe sun hung low in the sky, casting warm amber streaks over the clearing as the pack worked. The air smelled of sawdust, smoke, and sweat — but beneath it all was something else. Determination. Hope.My muscles ached, and my body screamed for rest, but I couldn’t stop. Wouldn’t stop. Not until every broken wall was mended and every last wolf had a roof over their head.This wasn’t just about rebuilding our home. It was about proving that we weren’t broken. That Jacob Ashbourne’s attack hadn’t shattered us.We were still standing — and stronger than before.I leaned against the frame of what used to be our meeting hall, now little more than charred beams and splintered wood. Caspian and Tony argued nearby over the best way to brace the new supports. Their voices blended into the background hum of the pack’s work.My brothers were loud, stubborn, and exhausting — but damn if I wasn’t grateful for them.“Fred!” Orion’s voice cut through the noise. I turned to see him jogging to

BlaireThe morning after the battle felt surreal. The smell of ash still lingered in the air, blending with the rich scent of pine and earth. The forest was quiet, as though the world itself held its breath, waiting to see what we’d do next.I woke to the sound of hammering — rhythmic, steady, and persistent. Fredrick’s side of the bed was cold, but his scent clung to the blankets, comforting me.For a moment, I wanted to bury myself back under the covers and pretend nothing had changed. That the battle hadn’t happened. That my father wasn’t gone.But that wasn’t who I was anymore.I wasn’t the scared girl who ran from her fate. I was Luna of this pack now — and they needed me.I got dressed quickly, opting for simple clothes that wouldn’t get in the way. The mirror caught my eye as I passed it. My reflection stared back, different than I remembered. My once-soft features were sharper and stronger. My vivid emerald eyes — the mark of my wolf — seemed to glow even in the daylight.I di
THE ALPHA’S FATED MATE Chapter 33
BlaireThe battlefield was eerily quiet now. The only sounds left were the rustling of the wind through the trees and the distant howls of the retreating rogues. The moon, once a beacon of strength, now felt cold and distant, casting its pale light over the fallen.My father’s body lay motionless where Fredrick left him. His once-powerful form looked smaller now, lifeless and still.I stared at him for a long moment, my chest tightening in ways I couldn’t quite explain. I didn’t feel sadness — not exactly. It was something more complicated. He had been cruel, manipulative, and controlling, but he was still my father.A part of me — the part that still remembered being a little girl who wanted her daddy’s approval — grieved for what could have been. For what we never had.Fredrick’s hand found mine, his warmth anchoring me to the present. His skin was streaked with dirt and blood, his silver eyes searching mine with a quiet, unspoken question.“Are you alright?” he asked, his voice low
THE ALPHA’S FATED MATE Chapter 32
FrederickThe moment Blaire spoke those words — “I am home” — I knew there was no turning back.Jacob’s eyes burned with fury. His stance shifted, low and predatory as if her defiance was a personal insult. In a way, it probably was. He wasn’t here to negotiate. He was here to reclaim what he thought belonged to him.But Blaire wasn’t a possession. She wasn’t his to take.A snarl ripped through the air, and Jacob shifted in an instant, his form snapping and twisting into a massive dark brown wolf. His pack surged forward with him, a wave of snarling fur and snapping jaws.My brothers’ howls echoed from the treeline, answering the call. In seconds, the clearing erupted into chaos. Wolves collided like crashing tides, growls and yelps blending into a violent symphony.I didn’t hesitate. My body moved on instinct as I shifted mid-lunge, bones cracking and reforming as my wolf took over. My paws hit the dirt hard, and I barreled into the first rogue that lunged for Blaire, sinking my teet
THE ALPHA’S FATED MATE Chapter 31
BlaireThe pack didn’t disperse after Fredrick’s speech. If anything, the air seemed thicker — buzzing with adrenaline and anticipation. Wolves began moving, gathering weapons, preparing supplies, and organizing patrols. The courtyard that once felt warm and inviting now felt like the calm before a violent storm.Fredrick stood tall among his brothers, speaking in low, urgent tones. Caspian and Orion listened intently, nodding as he laid out a plan. I watched him, taking in the way his silver eyes gleamed with fierce determination. He looked every bit the Alpha he was born to be. Strong. Unyielding.And yet, his shoulders seemed heavier tonight — as if the weight of the entire pack rested on him alone.I stepped forward, feeling a pull deep in my chest. I couldn’t just stand on the sidelines. Not anymore.“Fredrick,” I called, my voice steady.His head snapped up, eyes locking onto mine. For a brief moment, his expression softened, but then the steel returned. “Blaire, you should rest
THE ALPHA’S FATED MATE Chapter 30
BlaireThe pack dispersed, moving quickly to prepare. I watched them scatter — warriors sharpening weapons, others gathering supplies, and the younger wolves being ushered inside for safety. The courtyard that was filled with warmth and laughter days ago now felt like the calm before a storm.Fredrick stood at the center, giving orders with a steady voice. His brothers flanked him, each a pillar of strength in their way. Caspian was already discussing battle formations, and Orion organizing the patrols. Tony and Lanny were reinforcing the borders with the others. They moved like a well-oiled machine.But I felt… out of place.My heart raced in my chest, but it wasn’t from fear — not entirely. It was the weight of everything settling over me. I wasn’t just Blaire anymore. I wasn’t just the runaway daughter of an alpha. I was Luna to this pack now. And Luna didn’t stand back while her people fought.I turned away from the scene and headed toward the armory, ignoring the sting of the cut
