[Maverick’s POV]

I stare down at Rosco as his face goes redder and redder with rage. Although I knew even giving my age would piss him off due to my relationship with his daughter, I didn’t want to hide anything either. Hiding things was what caused him to dislike me so much, so it was time to turn over a new leaf.

“And since that is clear, should we should work on coming up with a plan to defeat Ezekial, don’t you think?”

Growing quiet, I wait as everyone stares at me like I’ve grown a second

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   What She Really Is

    [Maverick’s POV]That’s an issue for later.This is the only thought I have as I once again focus on the fighting around me because right now, the only thing that was important was getting to Serenity.Shaking off my unease about the human enemy, I continue to fight.I take out anyone who dares come anywhere near me and when I finally finish, I scan the area around me.Despite our best efforts, there are a few of my men who were hit by the blood bullets and were now human.‘Take them out of here.’ I order through mindlink.‘What about you?’ One of my men asks. ‘What are you…’‘I’m going forward.’ I respond, because it is the most obvious move. ‘I can handle things from here.’Growing quiet, I wait for opposition, but when it doesn’t come, I know that those who managed to not lose their wolves are going to do what needs to be done.Satisfied, I watch as they shift back into their human forms and once they start helping the others go back in the direction we came from, I turn my attenti

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Against Those Who Trust Me

    [Serenity’s POV]It’s like I’m on autopilot as I move, following Ellie out of the room and in the direction that I’m certain my allies are in and when I hear the growls and the sound of struggle, I try desperately to regain control olf myself.However, it is useless.There isn’t even the slightest bit of control left in me and even Mahogany seems unable to take control of our body like she would in the past.‘What do we do?’ She asks as we grow closer.‘I don’t know.’No matter how much I fought, I couldn’t stop my body from moving forward, following Ellie like she was my damn master.When I broke free of her hold, I would make sure to rip her to shreds for using my grandmother’s image to trick me.But is she the only one to blame?This single thoughts hits as I hear a growl rip through the air and as we round the corner, I see Uncle William and his men standing there.They are in their wolf form, but I would recognize him anywhere because he looks so similar to my own father.Dad.In

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   No Control

    [Serenity’s POV]My grandmother stares at me, shock coloring her features, but deep in her eyes that are the same color as mine, the same color as my mom's, I can see a bit of pride over the choice that I am making.“Is that your final decision?” She asks, eyeing me. “Do you plan on letting the time of the wolves disappear forever if it means saving your mother?”“I am,” I tell her. “I won’t let my mother die, and I won’t let this cycle continue.”“Then I won’t stop you from doing what you want, sweetheart.” She smiles, moving forward and touching my cheek.However, where I expect a warm, comforting touch, I find nothing but cold tendrils erupting and slowly beginning to flow into me.“This,” I gasp, my eyes widening. “What are you…”“I’m making sure that you don’t decide to go against your decision, sweetie.” She responds, her eyes now dark, endless tunnels slowly sucking me in. “You’ll need a strong determination to watch your world crash and burn. I’m only giving that to you.”“But

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   A Never-ending Cycle

    [Serenity’s POV]I’m drifting. My body is light and weighs almost nothing. I feel like I’m floating in a warm darkness that is slowly disrupted by a light that grows brighter by the minute until it is almost blinding.“What?” I hiss, blocking my eyes from the bright light. “What is…”“Serenity.”The voice is soft and comforting, and I feel like I’ve heard it somewhere before. I’m not quite sure where it was, maybe in a distant memory or even a dream, but I’m certain that I know it.“Sweetheart, you have to stop them.” It continues when I don’t speak. “Otherwise, I fear that our race will soon be ending.”“Who are you?” I ask, blinking in an attempt to be able to see the one speaking. “Why do you know these things?”As I speak, the light in front of me begins to fade; slowly but surely, I can soon see the one speaking, and she looks almost like my mother, but completely different.“Grandma?” I whisper, remembering the stories I’ve heard of her from my mother. They were few, but enough

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Take The Lead

    [William’s POV]“That’s enough! We can discuss all of this later. For now, we need to get moving. Serenity is waiting for us to save her, and if you want to stay and talk, I’ll go without you!”Maverick’s voice rings out into the night as I take Denali in. Fuck, she looks rough, and I was certain if Rosco was in his right mind, he would be ripping Jose into a million pieces, but since he wasn’t here, wasn’t that honor left to me?It would be, but Maverick was right; we didn’t have time to be standing around here. We needed to go to where Serenity was. Although, I was certain that Ellie and Ezekial wouldn’t make it easy.Now it makes sense. I think, remembering the wolves who attacked me on the road on my way back here. They were set all around the backgrounds to make sure that no one got in and no one got out, but they messed with the wrong fucking one. And I guess I needed to thank them for doing that since it made me call on my elites.Fate is on my side. I think, feeling a wave of

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Save Her

    [Maverick’s POV]I watch silently as the two sisters exchange words while everything in me screams to get moving. I know that there is a chance that they may never see each other again, and because of that, they should say what they want, but every moment Serenity wasn’t with me was torture. However, even then I don’t say anything, nor do I attempt to move.I have to hold comfort in knowing that they won’t kill Serenity. Since it was her blood that Ellie and Ezekial were after, I knew that she wouldn’t be killed, but that didn’t mean that she wouldn’t be tortured.Please. I whisper silently, my prayer going out into the darkness around me. Please be safe.As I speak, I find myself searching for Serenity even though I know deep down that I won’t be able to connect with her. There was no way that Ellie would allow something like that since it would mean that it would be easier to find her, but even then I search.Serenity. I whisper, my heart squeezing painfully. Where are you?Closing

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   Who She Was

    [William’s POV]Shock rushes through me as Elise works to cover her body, and I realize that she is getting the wrong idea about me. Shit. How could I even think of me ogling her body? Did I look like that much of a damn creepy old man?“No one cares about your body.” I huff, heading to the dresser an

  • The Alpha Princess' Bodyguard.   His Adoration

    [Elise’s POV]I find myself standing in the middle of a large room that smells of blood and death. Laying in the middle of the floor is a pile of dead bodies, and sitting on his throne of death behind them is the one I am certain is responsible for it. And the minute I accidentally touched one of the

    [Maverick’s POV]Later, I lay in bed while Serenity sleeps soundly beside me. The sun is slowly starting to trickle through the window to our right, but I find myself wishing that it would stop and that this single moment of pure bliss would last forever. However, I’m more than aware that isn’t possi

    [Serenity’s POV]Later that evening, I straddle Maverick, my lips pressed against his while his hands run along my skin. Ever since returning to my room after gaining my father’s acceptance, I just couldn’t seem to get enough of the man in front of me. Was it because I felt like the single hurdle kee
