The Alpha's Secret Daughter 136 - You Will Reject Your Mate
LUCY:As we get to the dungeon doors, I can't help but smile once again.I look up at the guards, who, based on their expressions, know exactly who I am now.It's not their fault they dragged me here at one point. They were only following orders.Once they bow their heads at me, the bratty waitress finally realizes I'm behind her."Ugh! You!" Fern rolls her eyes at me before turning around to face the guards again."Why can't she have visitors!?" she screams at the guards, who look at me for help."You'll see her tomorrow, Fern," I say calmly.I had no idea why my magic was in a key, but once it was within me, I felt just a little bit more at home. A strength had settled in me that felt like it was always mine.It was familiar, and I welcomed it."She isn't Luna yet. She doesn't get special privileges," Fern says, glaring back at me."If Alpha doesn't want visitors, then I suggest you listen," I respond.She doesn't hear a word I say. She pouts at the guards like it will make a differe

LUCY:"What was that about in the dungeon? You seemed scared after we left," Trish asks as we head back to the packhouse.I wasn't sure how to explain to her what I saw, so I shrugged it off. "Mom calls it Dragon Eyes," Trish responds at random.I stop in my tracks and look at her. What is she referring to? The way my eyes shift?"Your mom could never do that, or at least I had never seen her do it. I was curious, and when I mentioned it to my mom, she said it's been many years since a Fae was gifted with that kind of magic," Trish smiles, looping her arm through mine as we continue walking.We were walking back from visiting the hospital. The girls were in high spirits. They loved the clothes that Liam had picked out. He really had the best taste. I was glad he was there to finish up their shopping because it really wasn't my thing.Tricia was excited about their marks but hadn't said much, which didn't surprise me as the girls were present, and Trish was very kept to herself about

LUCY:As I was thinking about what I had said to Liam at the waterfall, I realized that the truth had only become apparent to me after I said it out loud.This acknowledgment started to make me nervous.Tricia is fidgeting nervously next to Sybil. "Sybil, you didn't answer Lucy's previous question. Who do we say our truths to?" Trish pipes us again before Sybil can answer my second question.We were both eager to understand the rituals of this pack.I know I need to get Tricia alone so we can talk; something is definitely up with her.Tricia is looking at Sybil with desperate eyes, waiting for her to answer her question."There is no science to it all, sweetie," Sybil responds, making Tricia's face fall. She was clearly uncomfortable with the idea of sharing secrets, and I couldn't blame her; I had felt that way for so many years."It's like magic, really. It was how I was able to open my heart fully to Leander," Sybil says, in a dream-like state.She looks off into space for a while

Lucy:I woke up the next day, unaware of when I had even fallen asleep while waiting for Tricia.As I looked around the room, she was nowhere to be found.I pulled myself out of bed, still in my clothes from yesterday.The sun is barely peeping over the mountains, which now has snow blanketing the tops.As I get into the shower, I feel a nudge in my skull, and my lips curl into a smile.'Good morning, mate,' I hear Liam.'I miss you,' I link back.'You do? I miss you too. What are you doing? I wasn't sure if you'd be up this early after your sleepover,' Liam links.'I'm showering, and I'm not sure it was a sleepover. Tricia seems to have left me last night for Saul,' I giggle through the link.He doesn't link back, which I found odd, but I finished up my shower.Wrapping a towel around my body, I walked back into my room to find Liam sitting patiently on my bed.'You didn't lock the door?' Nia perks up.I swore that I did. He must have had a master key or something."You really just we

Tricia:Lucy looked so much like her mom in the black and silver gown. It was my favorite of all of Enya's gowns. It was a bodycon-style gown that hugged every curve down to her knees, where it flowed into lace all the way down to her ankles.Mom had revealed more to me on our way back to the pack grounds the other night.There were things she made me promise not to tell Lucy, while there was one thing that she hadn't made me promise.If I ended up spilling all of my secrets tonight, I at least wanted to be able to share the one thing that I could openly.I sit down on the bed next to her and grab her hands."You are my best friend, too, Luce, but you're more than that," I say, taking a deep breath."Your mom, Enya, she is my Aunt Enya. Our moms are sisters," I say with a smile.She stares at me, searching my face for a moment."You can't cry. I spent too long on your makeup, and it's not all waterproof," I tell her, making her laugh and sniffle.It made sense now why my mom and I co

LUCY:Sparks ran down both sides of my neck as Liam and Leon both publicly claimed me in a way that I had never experienced by anyone before.Being acknowledged in such a profound way made my heart feel like it could burst.'The things that dress make me want to do to you, Lucy,' Liam lets me know exactly how he feels as his growl sends shivers through my soul.'Just wait until you take it off.' Leon comments, making it known that we're linking together.I smile like they're not affecting me at all as we exit the stage.I didn't miss Savina's stares. She felt empty when I looked at her ever since I saw what was inside of her.The next several hours went smoothly. Theo's grand fireworks entrance electrified the atmosphere of the festival and took everyone's eyes off me. I appreciated this so much."Luna," Acelynn bows at me."None of that. I'm not Luna yet, and I prefer just Lucy," I smile, lifting her head with her chin.I can't believe she is out of the hospital already. She looks br

LUCY:"That was quite the announcement," Seth says as he reaches our table."Kragen already knows she is with us, and he is somewhere hiding like a coward anyway. There is no reason to deny Lucy her title anymore," Leon explains their decision to start saying things as they truly were.I guess I was so used to hiding who I was that I felt it was normal when it really wasn't normal at all.Seth sits down next to Liam, across from Leon and me. I can tell he is trying not to look at me too much. I suddenly felt bad about wearing this dress.'Lucy-' Nia starts to say something, but Seth speaks up, and we both snap to his attention."I agree. If anything, your announcement may spread and get him to come out of hiding," he looks at me briefly before pausing and looking at Leon."I know tonight is important with the festival going on, but I was hoping to train with Lucy tonight for a while. Her challenge is tomorrow, and I think she could use a warm-up beforehand," Seth says, looking at Liam

Liam:After Lucy left, the festival broke apart, and people went about their night a bit more. I could tell that Leon noticed everyone constantly swarming around Lucy as well.We spend the next hour mingling and praising the pack. So many had contributed to the festival in noticeable ways.Dad always taught us that praise created loyalty that fear could never match. "I know Seth is our best friend, but I still don't trust him with Lucy," I say as we leave the last tent at the border of the festival.Even after what happened with Lucy and Seth, Leon seemed hardly concerned.Leon ignores most of what I say. As I look up at him, I turn in the direction he is smiling.Tricia and Saul are coming out of the tree lines looking rather smitten."You'd feel if they did anything, brother. Trust Lucy. I'm not wasting any more time overthinking what I want. I want her, that's all. You'd be wise to change your mindset before you push her away again." Leon tells me in a round about how he isn't thr

The Alpha's Secret Daughter 189 - I'm a Faery
Lucy:Leander said yes, of course. I knew that he would.Rosie was over the moon with excitement, and while I think we were all still shaken up about the crazy driver situation, this was a silver lining."Of course, Tallie and Maddel will have to agree. After all, they did adopt Rosie, and she is not an adult yet," Leander states.I couldn't tell what it was, but I didn't care too much for Rosie's adoptive mother, and I hadn't met her adoptive father yet."You're like a magnet for danger!" That's Trish.About time she shows up.Oh no. She doesn't have Saul.It's getting late. We've been here for longer, or the entire crash and chaos took more time than I had thought."Trishy, where is your mate?" I ask, staring at the cottage in hopes that Saul will come around the corner, but he doesn't.He went with Seth.Of course, he did. It makes sense, but I still can't help but feel bad. I keep feeling like everything is my fault. Anyone around me is put in danger left and right."Stop," Seth
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 188 - Strange Things
Lucy:A gentle hum vibrated from my connection with Rosie before everything went black.Am I the only one who can hear her this way?"Hello?" I ask into the darkness.A blue light illuminates the darkness. I shield my eyes with my arm momentarily until the light dims, and I'm left sitting on a garden bench."You're okay," I hear Liam's voice.I jump, startled by his presence in my space.My space? Where am I?"What? How?" I ask, turning my body to face him fully now.Liam just smiles at me and pulls me onto his lap to straddle him."This doesn't-" I'm cut off by Liam's lips softly pressing against mine.He gently wraps his arms around me, pulling my body closer to his in the process. For a brief moment, I let myself go, bringing myself into this moment with Liam."Wait!" I pull away."This isn't real. You aren't real!" I say, tearing up again.I had a horrible feeling about Liam going on that mission.How do I get out of here? I need to find Liam. Real Liam.Dammit, Rosie, what did
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 187 - Distressed
Seth:'What do we do?' Leon links me.Lucy has been crying in his lap for at least five minutes now as we drive to Rosie's.Goddess, why did she have to live so far out of the way? A large spot on his shirt was soaked with her tears. He's been doing a great job soothing her, the best anyone could, but she's not being receptive like she normally is.I can tell even Leander is getting nervous. Lucy's mood seemed to sway anyone within 20 feet of her.'Maybe it's a good thing we're going to Rosies,' I link back.Honestly, I have no idea. I had never seen Lucy act this way.Liam's leaving broke her into pieces. At least a million of them."Lucy!" Leander speaks up before clearing his throat.I watch as she hiccups and clears her throat, wiping her tears as they continue to flow steadily down her cheeks."Liam has been on a lot of scouting missions. This is his specialty. He managed to make it to Kragen's facility, find you, and come home in one piece. He will be okay," Leander states, s

Lucy:'Lucy! Wait for us!' Liam links me, but Nia isn't listening.Neither am I.I gave Nia complete control; she needed this. We should have gone for a run first thing this morning.We're gaining on him. I can feel the strength running through our blood, supplying us with more energy.The sound of his heartbeat sounds like rocks beating relentlessly against a drum.He's scared.Good.'There he is!' I say, even though I know she can see him too.The sound of paws is now beating heavily against the dirt ground, echoing off the solid oak and maple tree trunks. Of course, he had headed straight towards the forest. Anyone trying to get away would run in this direction but an unanswered question pops into my head.Where is he running to?'Wait! Nia! Let him get away!' I shout as loud as I can.I feel her growl vibrate through our entire presence as she leaps over a fallen oak log, our paws nearly brushing against the bark.I force myself forward, shifting mid-air against her will. My body
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 185 - The Driver
Lucy:"We'll have to take a car to Rosie's," Seth says as we head out the front doors of the pack house.For the most part, everyone understood what I had explained to them earlier about the connections, but if there was one thing I was holding very close to me, it was Hecate telling me to trust my gut.I had a third sense for things. It wasn't my core gift, but it acted very close to it.At some point, I needed to get Seth alone to help me plan for my other mate's birthday.While the ceremony would be on their actual birthday, I had a small idea of what I wanted to do for them as my gift, and it wouldn't be able to be on their actual birthday.The typical black SUV pulled around with a driver I hadn't seen before. It wasn't their usual guy."Can I take the passenger seat?" I ask, feeling oddly uncomfortable with this new driver for some reason unknown to me at this moment.While it may seem odd to take the passenger seat with how I'm feeling, it's really not. The closer I am to this d
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 184 - Savina's POV
Savina:"What took you so long?" I hiss.They left me for dead; I just know it.My throat feels like sandpaper as I sit up in the cot I had been in for the last several days."Be thankful we came back for you at all," Kash says.I have no clue where we are. The room is dark, and they haven't let me leave since I got here.They lied to me. Lucy wasn't supposed to have her magic. It was supposed to be an easy task.Although my plan was never to take her out in a challenge, I was improvising.The goal was to separate her from her mate's bond so that if her magic ever came to fruition, she would not gain her full strength.Kash never told me why we were doing it. Some might think I was a fool for following his orders blindly, but I trusted him.I loved him.I never wanted Leon the way that I had made it seem. It was a means to an end."How could you say that, Kash?! I did what you asked of me!" I defend.His comment nearly shattered my heart into a million pieces."You are a fool, Savina!
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 183 - Food for Thought
Lucy:We had lunch and revisited the plan we had made with Zeak after getting blood samples. There were still many things to do at this point, and I wasn't sure which direction to take next.We decided to have lunch at the pack house cafeteria. I told my mates we needed to start being more present in the pack."This doesn't mean that Savina is a demi, does it?" Liam asks."No, there weren't enough markers. She was given a gift somehow. That means we're working against magic that we hardly know anything about," Theo explains.Nadia looks worried, even though she is trying to pretend otherwise."Are you not going to explain to me why you want my blood tested?" I ask Nadia for what has felt like the millionth time.I know she isn't being completely honest, but what I had said to Seth was true.I want to build her trust and guidance, but I don't want to push for answers because I know sometimes we just don't know what the answer really is.I gave Theo another sample of blood—a fresh one.
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 182 - Old Magic
Lucy:"How did you think of that?" Seth asks as we walk to the city building.The air was cool, fresh, and crisp. The combined scent of pine and lilac lingered about the pack as it always had, but today, it was different.The rain the prior night had wafted the earthy scents further into civilization. I couldn't breathe in enough of it, and it relaxed my soul."Think of what, mate?" I asked. His question was random, as we had been walking for a few minutes now in silence."Doing a reverse Luna ceremony," he explains as if I should already know.I stop in my spot and look over at him, trying to gauge his emotions fully and independently.I hadn't considered that there was typically a Beta female, too, and being mated with Seth made it all the more complicated.He never mentioned me being a Luna or a Beta female, and I hadn't thought to ask either."It just made sense to ensure the pack is connected to me and has their full strength. This way, I'm not a Luna or a Beta female. I'm just m
The Alpha's Secret Daughter 181 - To Be Luna, or Not to Be
Lucy:"Her position is next to us!" Seth speaks up.He's protective in a way that's different from my other mates. He knows I'm insecure about my place amongst others.Or... at least I was. I'm not anymore.My mom knew I was going to have power that was bordering on unimaginable and most certainly unreasonable.No one needed the kind of power I had, yet here I am.She knew I would gain strength one day, so that I wouldn't be able to be so easily cracked. I was starting to understand how the Fae functioned and understood themselves with their magic.It was different. I wasn't the same, and I would never be the same again.I didn't want to be."Calm down, that wasn't what I was saying," Leander starts.The longer he takes to explain whatever's on his mind, the more the room feels like it's losing oxygen. I'm having a hard time controlling my feelings, sitting here waiting."I need you all to start considering what the pack's impression will be when Lucy has marked both the Alpha's of thi
