The Alpha's Possession 115. Standing Strong
Alex’s pov: Mom was no more. I could feel it. And I couldn’t act up on my grief, for we were in the middle of the battlefield. What had happened for heavens’ sake? She was a strong and fierce warrior – not one to be messed with, not one to lose easily. “Stay strong, son,” my dad’s voice reached me via mind-link. “We can overcome this together… Later. Now, we need to fight. For your mate. For your pup. For the pack.” “Yes, dad!” As usual, my mate didn’t fail to surprise me. Right when I thought she might bargain with her life or something, her eyes filled with tears and determination as she called the Alpha King despicable. But then again, my father’s pained howl could only mean he had explained to her what had happened. Then, she began to chant some spell, her eyes locked on the Alpha King. And we all sensed a shift in the air. A powerful aura. A dangerous force. Paulina looked at her with wide eyes, as if she couldn’t believe what she was doing herself. I had to trust my sw
The Alpha's Possession 114. A Sorrowful Howl
I was almost halfway to the battlefield when I realized that Alex’s mom hadn’t been among them. Where could she be? “Where’s Sapphira, mom?” I asked, turning to her abruptly. “They took her,” she deadpanned. “The elders took her.” I didn’t dare to stop, knowing that all and any delay could be fatal, but the wheels churned in my head. As earlier, Trevor went ahead of me, making sure to pave the way for me. I left Tyler in mom’s care, and instructed Cole to remain with her and protect them with his life. His answer was a curt nod that meant everything to me. He was one hell of an elite warrior. Being a man of action, he didn’t talk much, but I trusted him beyond words. Stepping out into the field, Paulina by my side, holding Anna in her arms, as if to never let go, I felt like I couldn’t be bothered to remain civil.“How dare you try to harm my baby?” I growled out the words. “How dare you have the elders attack Anna and Paulina? And what did you do with Sapphira?” “I don’t know

Jade’s pov: Blood. The ground beneath us was getting tainted red, as we were fighting against the Alpha King’s men. And to his annoyance, we had the upper hand. But then again, we had trained for this day, and it showed. As to be expected, he had more than a hundred wolves doing his bidding. For soon, our patrollers were howling, alerting us to the wolves that were advancing from the rear. “You’ve trained well, but you’re clearly outnumbered,” Beta Marc let out, a vicious smirk on his face. “Surrender now, and we might be merciful.” “Keep dreaming,” I growled at him. Had the circumstances been different, I wouldn’t have been so opposed to the idea of giving my life up for the pack. As it was, it would break Alex, and forever scar Tyler – and that just wasn’t an option. Trevor remained by my side, fighting off attackers deftly, without breaking a sweat. It seemed like being tasked with my protection had given him extra strength. Luc, on the other hand, was fighting with Alex, at
The Alpha's Possession 112. My Offense?
Jade’s pov:Paulina and I were training under Trevor’s watchful gaze when it happened. We felt a surge of energy fast approaching. We needed no damned warning bells to stop everything, and start gathering the pups that had been playing nearby.“Luna Jade,” Trevor let out calmly, “Everything’s going to be okay.”I merely nodded at him, even as fear gripped my heart in a tight hold.This was basically happening because of me, and I had not made peace with the fact that I was a bringer of doom, simply because I existed.“Paulina,” I let out urgently. “Mom and Tyler will be under your protection.”“But I was supposed to be right there with you, mistress,” she argued at once, not quite understanding the change of plans that was so last minute.“The best way to get to us would be through our little ones,” I insisted, before grabbing her wrist, making her stop, “I trust you, Paulina. I trust you with my life, with my son, with my mother… and with my pack.”“Yes, mistress,” she nodded gravely
The Alpha's Possession 111. Trust Me
Alex’s pov: In true Luna way, Jade had outdone herself in her training. We could feel it in the way she moved gracefully and almost feline-like. From as far as I remember, she was always a proud warrior – back when Eli bullied her on her first day of school, back when Jessica tried to attack her out of jealousy too. She never allowed her circumstances to define her. And now more than ever, it seemed like she was slightly obsessing over the kind of help she could provide. The Alpha King was coming in roughly a couple of days if Anna’s prediction was right – and they usually were. I didn’t know what that meant for the pack, but I knew that they were ready to fight alongside us. After taking out all the bad weeds, and having a sincere talk with the pack, where we asked them to lend us their strength… I was almost surprised to see that the omegas were the first ones to react positively – so beautifully too. “We will stop at nothing to make sure the pack remains safe,” one of them le
The Alpha's Possession 110. Anchor
Jade’s pov: Only 1 week remained till the fateful date. Indeed, it had been 2 weeks since Anna announced that the King would be coming. And while we expected it to be a troublesome matter, we had trustworthy allies. Sherry and Kade sent over a dozen warriors to help out, with training first and foremost, but also to ensure no one would be hurt if possible. Ian had promised to be here himself, together with his gamma and a few warriors, in 3 days. As the pack’s Luna, and because I was the reason behind such chaos, I trained as diligently as anyone around. It was 3 pm. I was training with Paulina. With her soft guidance and indulgent patience, needless to say that I made great progress. “As a light witch,” Paulina began softly, “You can easily manipulate two elements... Maybe even three if you put your mind to it.” “I only seem good with fire though,” I pouted, hating how I had failed to make a ripple in the water, without touching it for some time. “You’ve only started training
