ALEXANDER'S POV
Three days later Elijah called us to the library, I smile as I walk in and find the library is a mess with books here and there, some open, some not and a lot of them had small pieces of paper coming out of different pages. I sit down at the conference desk as Cole and Nathan enter the library. I don't miss their smirks or slight laughs as they join me sitting at the desk.
It is a few minutes before Elijah walks around the corner of one of the bookshelves to join us. He looks at the book that is open in his hand and then places it on the desk before picking up another one and then saying,
'Okay, I have narrowed it down to 2 species of supernaturals... The first is the Fae. Now I know they are meant to be extinct, but there have been a few rumours going around that maybe one or two survived, but there are no purebreds anymore..."
"And what is the other one?"
"Okay..."
He puts that book down and searches in amongst t
GRETA'S POV Even after he said that they wouldn't hurt me and that he wouldn't let them, I could feel their Alpha aura and knew that they would do what they wanted to me no matter what he said. So as much as I wanted to do what Lily wanted, and that was to stay safe and warm in his arms, I access my other side and disappear, but I don't go too far, as I want to see what they do. I sit on the roof near the skylight and listen. I am extremely surprised when the Alpha I had caught by accident steps in saying, "If you punish him, you punish me..." This is not a normal Alpha or at least any Alpha I have known, as all Alpha's I have ever met only look out for themselves. They never admit when they are wrong and never take a punishment that is meant for another. Lily gives me a nudge to pay attention as if she knows he is about to say something important. "If Delta Alexander failed today, then so did I..." So that was his name. I smile as Li
ALEXANDER'S POV I allow my breathing to become shallow, but even so that I breathe enough of her sleep gas to relax me but not enough to knock me out like last time. My mind goes a little foggy with the gas, but I still pay attention when she pulls the SUV to a stop. She seems to wait for a moment or more before finally climbing out of the driver's door and making her way back to us. She takes Skyler first, but that isn't a surprise as she was the target, to begin with. She then comes back out for me. Greta has no problems picking me up and carrying me into the cabin. She puts me back in the same room I woke up in last time, only this time she actually laid me on the bed. Greta then ties my wrists together and then to the bedframe. I don't know where she goes, but I fight the fog her sleep gas caused and take a look at my wrists. She has tied them better this time and it will take me a little longer to get out of them, but I still can. I then hear her movin
ALEXANDER'S POV I wake when I hear movement in the other room. I look down as I then feel Greta stir in my arms. She stretches and then looks up and tenses. I smile and glance at the window. "Good afternoon..." Greta starts to struggle in my arms, placing her hands on my chest and trying to push away from me, but suddenly stops and just stares at her wrist. I move my gaze to her wrists and then back to her eyes as she whispers, shocked and surprised. "Where? How?" "What?" She relaxes a little, holding her wrist in front of her as she repeats, "Where? How?" I chuckle a little as I ask again, "What? I can't answer your question until you answer mine?" She then looks up at me, "Master Alpha Christopher's iron ownership bracelet... It's gone!..." She then stops again as she moves her eyes from mine, lowering them back towards her wrist but stopping at my shoulder. Again she looks up at me in surprise and a little co
ALPHA CHRISTOPHER'S POV After getting that call from my Beta, telling me that my King was on his way to do an inspection on my pack as well as some of the surrounding packs, as somehow he got tipped off that the packs, especially mine, were mistreating females. It may be true that a female is only there to give us pleasure and the occasional pup. So I had to, unfortunately, abandon my fun with Skyler and head home to take care of this and make sure, not that I am worried as my pack knows the rules and knows the penalties for not following them. It took weeks to get that idiot of a king to go back to his castle and get his nose out of my business. As I leave my territory, I open my pack link and contact Greta. "I will be there in a couple of days. You still have her?" "Yes, Master Alpha." I cut the link and smile that she has managed to keep Skyler hidden from those Alphas. I was a little worried at one stage that the
SKYLER'S POV I fight my way out of the darkness and slowly open my eyes. I was expecting to be tied in one way or another, but I stretch, finding that I am not bound in any way. I place my hand over my stomach and feel two little kicks, telling me that my pups are doing well. I then slowly sit up and look around. I smile as I realise we are back at the same cabin we were in when Greta first took us. I shiver as I look over at the wall where Uncle Christopher had me tied so that he could whip my back. As he had whipped me, I could tell it was the same type of belt that my father used to wear. I get to my feet and walk over to the door that leads to the other room. I listen for just a moment and smile as Alexander gets to know and shows Greta what having one of us as a mate would be like. I move away from the door and head over to the small kitchen, making myself something to eat. As I sit at the counter, I get a tug on all 3 of my mate links. Even Cole's, that has bee
ALPHA CHRISTOPHER'S POV I make the trip back to my territory and pack. I am in such a foul mood. Not only didn't I get to finish punishing Skyler for killing my brother, but I have also just lost the best assassin I have ever had under my command. A Fairy hybrid is very hard to find as the king of Fairies sees them as abominations and usually has them killed not long after birth. I was lucky that I managed to capture and enslave a purebred fairy. Normally a pure Fairy only lasts for a short amount of time in the service of others, but I found a loophole. I did many hours of research and it took the sacrifice of quite a few scouts to infiltrate the Fairy King's castle and then his library to find the information that I needed. The very last scout I sent come back with a page from a very old book, on that page written in Fairy. It took me a little while to translate it, to find it was the instructions on how to capture, enslave and use a Fairy without killing them.
SKYLER'S POV I wake up, stretch and run my hand over my growing belly. Talking to Doc Isaac, he believes that the twins I am carrying are both Elijah's and Nathan's. Even though there were around 2 weeks between when they had loved me, he said that it is rare but possible. It also explains why one is slightly smaller than the other. I slowly crawl out of bed, as it is getting a little tiring to move as I only have 3 weeks to go. I head into the bathroom for a shower, even though I would love to stay there and soak up all the heat from the water, I don't stay in for too long as I have a little more preparation to do before Samuel and Emma's birthday party starts. I get out of the shower, dry off, and then head out and into the closet. I slip on a loose sundress and then head down to the kitchen. I move around the kitchen, pulling out all the ingredients to make Samuel and Emma their favourite chocolate chip pancakes as their standard birthday breakfast. I jump
SKYLER'S POV I sigh and make my way around the party, letting the pups and everyone that I pass know that the food is ready and they can help themselves whenever they are hungry. I sit on the back porch, resting my feet for a minute, and watch as Cole continues to play with all the pups. I feel a little guilty and a little sad as I watch him now play and think about what he would have been like with them if that night had gone a different way. I slide my hand over my belly and wonder what he would have been like if he had been with me through Samuel and Emma's pregnancy. I open my mate links as I feel both Elijah and Nathan send down a tug. "Skyler, Elijah, I am on my way back to the packhouse. It was just a small group of rogues that wandered across the border but didn't realise it..." "Okay... I am going to be a little longer as these rogues are here to fight. I currently count at least a dozen running over the border in wolf form... Wi
