When the final bell rang at three o'clock, I walked toward the parking lot. My eyes immediately scanning for Dylan or Reed, the Alpha and Beta properties were practically besides each other so we would share rides.

Neither of them had any extracurricular activities after school today which meant I caught a ride with them this morning instead of going in my own vehicle.

They stood beside Reed's black Dodge Charger, Dylan leaning against it as they spoke to the Third in Command's twin daughters.

I approached them, quickly walking towards Dylan's side, and giving the twins a small smile which they returned. The twins had newly shifted, their wolves present within their eyes.

Both Charlotte and Ella had not yet gained full control of their wolves, having newly shifted they were still in practice.

Their older brother and our future Third in Command River had taken the next three weeks off school to follow through with his own training.

"Ready to go?" Reed questioned once the twins said their goodbyes. I nodded at him and we all got into the car, I sat in the back, pulling my seatbelt around me as Reed raced out of the school's parking lot and down the road.

Our high school was located inside our territory and only a 15-minute drive from the pack house. The pack house mainly consisted of newly mated wolves, our pack infirmary and the Alpha's spare office.

It didn't take long for Reed to pull up outside the Beta's house, the house I called home.

Both Dylan and I piled out of the car and headed towards the front door. We climbed the short steps, the mansion towering over us, the white walls reflecting nicely on the black windows.

We walked straight into the house, Dylan informing me that he was going to see his dad in the office.

I decided to walk into the kitchen, knowing Grace would be in the middle of cooking dinner.

Grace smiled widely at me as I entered the kitchen, manoeuvring myself to the counter stool as she grabbed seasoning from the cupboards, sprinkling it on generously to the spaghetti bolognese that she had cooking on the stove.

"How was school sweetheart?" Grace asked as she walked to the kitchen sink, washing her hand, the soap bubbling up lavishly before it disappeared under the warm water.

I shrugged my shoulders, my eyes meeting hers. "Schools, school," I began, my words making her laugh. "It wasn't the worst, I have a math exam next week which I need to study for, but other than that, I'm fully caught up with work."

"School was never my favourite, but you're senior year now and its nearly over. I know we spoke briefly about it before, but have you thought about whether you wanted to go college or do full time warrior duties?"

I sighed, my facial expression showing my uncertainty. I hadn't yet decided what I wanted to do; I was still indecisive. "I'm conflicted still, I would like to go to college and have the experience, but I also want to follow my father's footsteps."

Grace now stood opposite me on the other side of the counter, her hands reaching out to grab mine which I gripped just as hard. "You haven't got too long to decide, I understand it's not an easy choice but both Julian and I will be with you, whatever you choose to do."

"Thanks Grace." I appreciated Grace and Julian more than words could ever express. I stood up, walking around the counter and gave her a hug which she instantly returned.

"Let's serve dinner, shall we. Would you help set the table for me?" She requested as she pulled back from the hug, giving me a smile before ushering me into the dining room.

After setting up the table both Dylan and Julian appeared, Julian giving me a huge smile and questioning me about my day at school.

We all sat there talking and eating, discussing our days and what our plans were for the weekend. Dylan, Reed, Chase, Chloe, and I were going to the mall tomorrow since it was Saturday.

"You both have training on Sunday, don't forget especially since you both have next weekend off as Reed mentioned you were both going to Gabriel's birthday celebrations." Julian's tone was serious when he mentioned training, he was a very serious man when it came to pack business and our combat training.

Dylan and I both nodded, I hadn't confirmed whether I was going to go to the party, but I didn't fancy doing combat training either.

"It's only for five hours, so hopefully it's not too painful." Julian laughed, pleasantly entertained as we all knew we were having training with Alpha Jaxon.

The thought of training with our Alpha had my muscles tightening and seizing up. Already able to feel the immense ache and pains that would be occupying my entire body the following week.

His training sessions were tough and brutal. He would push you past your limit, to test your full potential.

"You both look tired, why don't you both go up to bed and I'll clear away tonight." Grace said, staring at Dylan and me.

After thanking Grace for the meal, I headed up stairs to my bedroom, it was opposite Dylan's.

He decided to go back to the office with Julian, he had paperwork he needed to fill out to do with the pack house and wanted to complete it before going to bed.

I threw myself on my bed, I laid there for a few moments before deciding to have a quick shower before bed, knowing I would feel better once I was curled up and comfortable.

Moving into my bathroom, I stripped off my dirty clothes before jumping into the shower. Washing my blonde hair in the process before getting out and drying myself down with a towel.

I brushed my teeth, then walked into my bedroom, grabbing a pair of shorts and a top before crawling into bed and under my comforter. The warmth immediately making me yawn, my exhaustion catching up to me as I fell into a deep sleep.

I woke up to my alarm blaring loudly in my ear, my arm flinging in the direction of the noise, my hands smacking the snooze button before I turned around, tucking my head back into the warmth that surrounded me. Drifting straight back into my deep sleep.

Within what felt like twenty minutes, Dylan was banging on my bedroom door before he entered, jumping on top of my bed as I tried to push him off.

I scowled at him, unamused and still tired, wanting to get another hour or two sleep.

"You've slept for about 14 hours. Surely you don't need more sleep?" I nodded my head at his question, rolling onto my side facing away from him as I pulled my comforter up, tucking it beneath my chin as I attempted to get more sleep.

Dylan's loud laugh entered my hearing as he yanked the comforter back, his aggravating smile bothering me at this time in the morning. "It's 11 o'clock, they can wait an hour." I whined.

"Lara, it's 2 o'clock."

"Oh no." His comment had me darting up, I didn't want to be responsible for ruining everyone's day or plans. I immediately stood up, rushing towards my wardrobe and grabbing a pair of jeans, a pink casual top and my underwear.

Dylan laid casually on top of my bed, turning on my television as I hurried to the bathroom, brushing my teeth, showering, and throwing on the clothes I had picked.

"I'm ready," I stated as I walked out only to find Dylan smirking at me. I narrowed my eyes on him, my brain acknowledging exactly what he had done, the reason why he was smirking at me. "It's not 2 o'clock, is it?"

Dylan's smirk seemed to grow, his eyes shining as an amused glint appeared in his eyes. His dimples becoming more prominent as I glared angrily at him. "No, we have loads of time. It's only half 9."

"Dylan," I screamed making him chuckle more, while agitating me more. "You're such a jerk!" I shouted before grabbing a pillow and hitting him with it.

    Nates hand flung out, grabbing me roughly by my hair causing a loud screech to exit my mouth. My hands instantly flew up to his grip, trying to pry his hands off. He kept the tight grip while his other hand covered my mouth, muting my screams.I clawed at his throat, my nails digging in deeply at the sensitive skin and he growled lowly at me, pulling me backwards as he dragged me across the woods towards the back of a warehouse.My legs were buckling from beneath me; I moved my hand back to my hair where his hands were, trying to loosen the tight hold he had while my other stayed on my stomach. Nate could not find out about my pregnancy, if he did, we would be in mortal danger.As we grew closer to the warehouse, he shuffled himself, so his arm was around my neck, his arms crushing my throat making it difficult to catch a breath. He held me hostage as he yanked the back door open to the warehouse."Nate," I croaked, my breathing hard and low from his crushing grasp. "I can't breathe."

  • The Alpha’s Unknown Baby   Chapter Twenty Nine

    I felt my heart physically stop when those words left that man's lips. I wanted to cry out in pure joy and excitement, but I also didn't want to get my hopes up. I wouldn't be able to cope with another dead lead.Gabriel's voice echoed through the pack mind link, breaking me from my thoughts. 'All pack warriors and trackers are to meet me outside my home in ten minutes.'Dan and Eli were in the office within minutes, both ready and prepared. Gabriel had provided them with more information and him and the guys were extracting all the information they needed from the tracker who had discovered Kennedy's location.Gabriel and Jayden were both scanning through maps on Gabriel's desk with Jayden pinpointing Kennedy's exact location. "Me along with Kellan had both caught a scent from a rogue, we decided to follow it on a hunch. Turned out he was a member of Marcus's rogue pack. It led to an abandoned warehouse a few towns away, it is three hours from here.""How sure are you that Kennedy is

  • The Alpha’s Unknown Baby   Chapter Twenty Eight

    Nate had taken her.He had kidnapped my daughter and had killed two of our pack warriors.The feelings and sensations that I was feeling were immense. It was fear, terror, anguish and pure murderous.Gabriel grabbed my shoulders harshly, pulling my body to his. His mouth moving, trying to communicate with me, but his words were mute. His lips were speaking but no words were coming out.All my senses had disappeared, fear disabling me.Gabriel shook me roughly, the movement waking me, pulling me out of my shocked state. "Lara!"I closed my eyes, squeezing them tightly, my hands reaching up and into my hair, tugging at it tightly. He wouldn't hurt her; no Nate could never hurt Kennedy. He wouldn't do that. He wouldn't do that. I kept repeating to myself, trying to convince myself of the fact.My wolf was pacing around my mind, begging to be released. She was pushing herself out as I held her down, needing to concentrate instead of allowing her to explode, to let a bomb off that I needed

  • The Alpha’s Unknown Baby   Chapter Twenty Seven

    The last few weeks had passed quickly, the days had been merging as time flew by. We celebrated Gabriel's birthday last week before him and Eli left to visit a bordering pack yesterday morning.Gabriel had informed me that the Alpha wanted to discuss a potential share of land which we owned between the border of both packs.Gabriel was debating the idea since it would bring in business for our pack wolves as the land that he wanted a share in was part of our town. Where many of our wolves owned restaurants, shops, and cafes.Gabriel was still indecisive about the prospect of mixing two packs together; wolves were very territorial creatures and having two packs merge in one area can be explosive. It could also make some of our wolves uncomfortable or wary of the outsiders on their territory.The benefit of it was the revenue it would provide; we did also have a very secured treaty with Alpha Kane. One that had never been betrayed or broken. It was the same pack that Gabriel had trained

    Taylor and I both looked up horrified by the intrusive voice, not expecting anyone to have heard our confidential conversation. One Taylor wanted to keep a secret between her and I.Gabriel stood in the doorway, his hand gripping the door handle as his gaze followed to both of ours, his attention landing and staying on mine.Confusion flashed through his eyes as if the information he had heard, sounded incorrect. A frown appeared soon after, the room surrounding in an awkward silence as we all went into a state of shock.Wanting to speak to Gabriel in private and knowing that Taylor needed to rest, I gently squeezed her hand. Rubbing my thumb across her knuckles reassuringly. "Why don't you go to bed and sleep on it. You don't have to make any rash decisions and it will make you feel much better."She agreed before giving me a small smile and heading out the door, brushing past Gabriel as she gave him a respectful nod.Gabriel copied her gesture as we watched her leave our bedroom in

  • The Alpha’s Unknown Baby   Chapter Twenty Five

    I woke up with a headache, my neck and shoulder in agony from the position I was lying in. Gabriel laid next to me fast asleep, his chest rising and falling. I sat up and yawned, manoeuvring myself off the bed and towards the window.Looking out only to see darkness. It must have been the early hours of the morning, the events of yesterday suddenly invading my mind.Taking a step back, I see Gabriel sitting up, his back leaning against the headboard. "How are you feeling? Michael said you should have healed fully by the morning.""I feel exhausted, but my mind is wide awake." I admitted, walking back towards the bed.Gabriel pulled my body on top of his, his eyes scanning over my injuries, his demeanour protective and possessive as he held onto me tightly. "You can't go for runs on your own any longer, not after today."I frowned, raising my eyebrows. "Why? You killed Olivia; she was the problem. Why would I now need a protective detail?""Because we've still got rogue problems, and t
