Ford’s pov

“As the alpha of this pack, I do not like to be surprised by unannounced guests,” I started the meeting.

“They’ve been our allies for centuries, Alpha Rutherford; you of all people must know that.”

I wanted to tear the head off the old pillock but refrained from doing so for now. “That may be so; however, one does not invite a guest to stay here without my authorisation first.”

“Alpha Fletcher seemed to think you were old friends,” the other decrepit council member started.

“He is mistaken.” I simply stated. “I barely know the man, and with the arrival of my mate, the timing of this visit does not seem wise. She has yet to grow accustomed to our ways.”

“It’s precisely why now is perfect,” Walter replied. “Your mate should see we have just as many allies as the Iron River pack and that you’re seen as a reliable partner, -“

I did not let the fool finish, “how many people is he bringing?”

“Well, the alpha, of course, then security and a few, -“

Almost weekend! Do you have any exiting plans? My youngest is going to swim for his second diploma. Because our country is surrounded by water kids are required to have at least one, but peferably two diplomas in swimming. It's based on rescue swimming. So besides learning different swimming strokes, they also learn what to do when they drop in water or how to swim through a hole. (in case they'd fall through ice in the winter) and they need to be able to swim in clothes so they get used to the heaviness of clothes if they ever fall in a body of water unexpectandly. And sunday both my boys have a judo tournament. So busy weekend for us.

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   80. Peach

    Maverick’s pov She is perfect, absolutely perfect. It’s funny how she rejected any of the pet names I used but would allow me to use sugar. It’s what my ma used to call me. My father hates her southern accent and hated her using words like that even more. So of course my mate wouldn’t mind that term of endearment. It’s how life works, apparently. But I can’t let anyone know this beautiful woman, who looks like she could give me a run for my money in the gym, is my mate. Because my family will destroy her. I wasn’t lying when I said I was following orders. The orders of my brother, the alpha of my pack. In reality, it’s not really his order, because he’s just doing whatever these council people want him to do. Honestly, Brandon is as useless as tits on a bull. But he’s the firstborn. The prodigal son. The one who was actually loved. But don’t get it twisted, I’m hunky-dory. I don’t care about any of it, as long as I can kick some ass from time to time and they leave me alone. I

    Marley’s povIt wasn’t even done on purpose. I just needed to pee. Most of my family went home after the Luna ceremony of Nivia, but I decided to stick around.I stupidly thought Nivia would appreciate it, but I don’t even think she noticed.She sure did notice me walking through the house when she and her mate came back butt naked and covered in mud and grass stains.Not a picture I really wanted to see either, but here we are.“Shit.”Yeah… shit.Nivia looked guilty, and I know I’m supposed to be the better person, but part of me felt satisfied seeing the look on her face.“Hey, I—” I stopped Nivia. “Let’s talk about it later. I don’t want to ruin your night.”“Okay,” Nivia said, before turning to Ford, who stood behind Nivia so I wouldn’t see his junk. “You remember Marley, right? My best friend.”“I apologize; I do not recall us meeting prior to today. It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance, albeit I wish it were under different circumstances.”Nivia giggled nervously. “They are

    hi, I'm sorry. we're in Disneyland (paris) for a few days so I won't be able to write much. I'm going to try, but forgot to bring my laptop and typing on my phone isn't that great. thanks for your patience. Will be back Wednesday.

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   78. Happy

    Nivia’s povThere was a lot to worry about. Walter’s last words were ominous, to say the least, but I didn’t want to focus on that.I didn’t want to think about everything there was to do after this ceremony, after all the changes we’d have to make. Or the ways we’d have to rally the pack behind us.All I wanted was to be here and now. Become the Night Claw’s Luna and a member of their pack.I wanted to be able to mindlink these people. To feel connected to them.Even though I’d miss my family like crazy. It needed to happen. You can’t have both.Well… I can. I am going to be the luna of this pack and then the alpha of the Iron River pack. So maybe I can have both. Just not at the same time.“Do you…” Oh shit, focus.“… accept the role of the Luna of the Night Claw pack and all the responsibilities that come with the title?” Ford asked me.“I do.”“Do you swear to protect this pack from danger, whether it’s from within the pack or out of the pack’s borders?”I nodded, “I swear.”“And w

    Ford’s pov“I would like to start the festivities by giving thanks to those who deserve it. First and foremost, my mate, your Luna, Nivia Omari. Those who know me are aware I am not fond of public displays of affection or long speeches, yet for my darling mate I am willing to push through.”I heard some giggling in the audience and saw plenty of people surprised by my speech. I hardly gave speeches. We did not have large pack meetings or other occasions where I was forced to make a public speech.I had chosen not to, for years, for in all honesty, I was scared of what people might think or do if they all stood together to face me.Nivia held my hand as I continued, “you have changed me in ways I cannot even describe. You have made me a better man, a better mate, and, dare I say, a better alpha. It is not easy to change a man that is set in his ways, as I was. A man with a heart of stone, whose hardheadedness is only rivalled by his father-in-law.”Ford laughed loudly, “you got that rig

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   76. Silly

    Nivia’s pov“Being aroused by feet was just another defiance, another way I was different from the rest. To me, it felt like proof I did not belong here. Every little tidbit about me that did not compute with what an alpha was supposed to be, I tried to eliminate from my personality.” Ford said as he admired my feet. He pressed a kiss on my big toe, “even,” another kiss on the next toe,” the way,” and one more, “I speak.”“You used to sound different?” I asked. I didn’t think him admiring my body would lead to a conversation about Ford’s past, but I was here for it. As much as I wanted another ride on that Hardick of his, I wanted to get to know more about my mate just as much.“Indeed,” Ford spoke, before taking all my toes into his mouth at once and sucking on them.I moaned as my eyes rolled back. It was kind of hard to have a real conversation, but if this made it easier for Ford to open up about his past, I didn’t mind. I mean, I didn’t mind anyway, because he was touching me and
