Chapter 47
“Last I checked Montgomery, you were the only one who had an issue with the Cerathean king.” Alpha Norman drawled. “I don’t see what your issues with him has to do with the rest of us.”
Frowning, I pinched the bridge of my nose between my fingers. It had been over an hour and the majority of the other alphas were still on the fence about joining forces against Cerathe. I had told them everything that Selene and Rory had told me when they arrived at my house almost a week ago, but none of them seemed to care.
“What you fail to realize is that my pack is the only thing standing between your own and a king hellbent on genocide.” I huffed. “If I fall, we all fall.”

Unknown I tucked myself into the bushes, concealing my scent, as I watched the Alpha’s house. Word had gone out that the entire guild was to move on the Dark Moon pack, the King was growing impatient over his soldier’s inability to conquer them. I had slipped into the territory through the main roads, posing as someone visiting on vacation. It wasn’t unusual for wolves to travel back and forth across the border, though those who fled tended to use secret routes to avoid being stopped by border patrols. Not that I could blame them, most of them were refugees from attacks against their pack or family, they would have good reason to be afraid of crossing at the normal places. In the short time I had been in Mercius, I had discovered the Alpha had a mate and children. That information had been omitted from

Between Lucas refusing to mark me and seeing him with Maggie in the restaurant window, I had been avoiding him to nurse hurt feelings. I threw myself into growing my assassin training. Three new wolves had joined us. While Lucas had made the normal training mandatory pack wide, the additional training had been volunteer only. Out of ten wolves who had shown promise in the early stages of pack training, only three had agreed to join my team. I was disappointed, but with time, my numbers would grow. “You think you might wanna ease up on them?” Fenrick asked after one particularly brutal training session. “No. This isn’t like anything we’ve experienced as guild members. We’re defending an entire pack from the king and other a

We followed the scent to the midway point to town. My eyes scanned the thinning woods before me, catching sight of a man’s back. I shifted, snagging clothing from the pack on Vic’s back before signaling for the group to shift and fan out, each armed with weapons and tranquilizer guns from the pack. I crept quietly toward the man, recognizing him as I closed the distance between us. “Hello EJ.” I called out, suppressing a chuckle as he turned wildly toward the sound of my voice. “Alive and well I see.” He replied, a sinister smirk playing on his lips. “No thanks to you.” I sneered. “Come to finish what you started?”&nb

Maggie My hands trembled in my lap as I sat on the exam table waiting for the pack physician to return. Something was wrong, but I didn’t know what. Though I had done well to hide it, I hadn’t been able to shake the fatigue that cause Lucas to send me to the pack hospital a few weeks before. I didn’t want to worry him with the threat of the guild moving on his territory. He had already had one close call with an assassin, I didn’t need my health distracting him on patrol. Though I hadn’t told Deven about the absence of his wolf gene, I knew stress wasn’t the source of my feeling unwell. The tension between Lucas and I at the reappearance of his mate had dissipated. We had returned to a comfortable routine, growing even closer than we had been before Selene showed up. Training with the pack left me feeling more confident, which m

Daniel “Aurora. To what do we owe the pleasure?” I grinned at the older she-wolf standing on my porch. “This isn’t a social call Daniel.” She frowned. “Can I come in?” Stepping back, I motioned for her to come inside. I had known Aurora since my days in the guild. She had been my handler as well as my daughter’s. We had been close enough that she attended my wedding to Abigail. One of the few members of the guild that I maintained contact with once I retired. It wasn’t unusual for her to pay us a visit, her and Abigail had become fast friends over the years. What was odd was her demeanor. In all the years I had known her, she had never visited my home on business. “Aurora! I’m so glad

Selene Making my way to the pack hospital, my mind replayed the moment in Lucas’s office. He had forgiven me for breaking the bond, now I just needed him to give into our reforged connection. A plan formed in my mind as I strolled into Rory’s office. “What’s got you so chipper?” She smiled at me from behind the stack of medical records on her desk. “Did you find a place?” “Actually, I was thinking about tonight’s haze.” “Oh?” She raised an eyebrow at me, folding her hands beneath her chin to indicate I had her full attention. “I know I’ve been kind of dodgy about discussing the Lucas issue, but I’m hoping if I can

We talked for hours, with me eventually shifting my position so that I was curled in his lap against his chest. I had never been so intimate with anyone, sharing with him my fondest childhood memories. Even though my attitude had changed toward our mate bond, it was the first time I truly understood how well we were matched. It made me wonder for a moment why I had fought against our bond in the first place. Lucas stood from his seat, scooping me into his arms as he did, eliciting a giggle. Toying with his loosened tie, I looked into his eyes, plastering on my most innocent face. “Whatever are you doing, Alpha?” I laughed.

EJ The alpha and the she-bitch Selene left me in the interrogation room. My hands and feet were shackled together with silver, connected to a chain bolted to the floor. If it wasn’t for the silver, I could have broken free. My wolf was too far out of reach thanks to the metal burning into my skin. I was as weak as an average human male. Still, I refused to give them the satisfaction of seeing me break. I sat back casually in the hard metal chair smirking at the door. By the time another wolf waltzed into the room, my facial muscles were aching. He sneered down at me as he drew closer. It was obvious he thought I wasn’t worth his time. “Time to strip.” He grunted. “Alpha’s orders.” “And
