Ares Pov I've been managing to avoid the little Omega since she got out of the hospital. My brothers only seem to talk to me when we have pack business as alphas to discuss, but that is about it. I know they are still upset about me cheating on her. I admit, I'm upset with myself as well, but then I can't forget what I saw her doing on the last day of the summit. It felt like it just broke me, and the only way I can repress it is by pushing her away. My brothers are keeping her happy from the looks of it, and this frustrates me a little. I know I dont want a mate, I dont want her, but If I did, I would want the type of relationship they seem to have with her.I had been hiding behind Briana, who is still keen on being made Luna due to my brothers and I not mating with the Omega. Which is my fault really, but whatever. We ran this pack just fine without her, and we will continue to do so. My rules. The goddess should have thought twice before giving us all the same mate. I decided to
Ares Pov "Sit down", my mom commands, and I do. I can feel her anger rolling off. "You cheated on your mate", Mom demanded, and I hung my head in shame. "Well speak," Mom says"You know I dont want a mate," I told her, meeting her eyes. I want to look away, but I have to fess up to what I've done. "Well, as your father says, tough shit. You were hoping that you would all get separate mates, but the Moon Goddess paired you up with someone who is probably extremely powerful enough that she has to be paired with three powerful Lycans to match her direct lineage", I said, holding my eyes. "Just because the moon goddess paired us up with the omega doesn't mean I will be forced to accept her," I say, getting annoyed, and I can feel her heat aura spread in the room, not that it affects me."Ever since you were a child, you have been stubborn and cut off. You don't let anyone get close to you. You shelter yourself off, believing it will make you stronger, but it won't. Your ignorance has
Ash Pov My brothers and I have been busy trying to figure out the vamps' movements. We have been in our office most of the time, talking about strategy, etc. Ares left earlier and never came back. No surprise there. I can't talk though. Aiden and I have been so busy that we haven't given any time to Bella, and I know she thinks we were ignoring her. My attention is brought back to the conversation at hand. "So, the vamps are now slaughtering small packs, looking for information," Our dad, Ethan, tells us on the phone. "How far away is the closest Vamp activity from here," I ask."About 100 miles off, but they will be working their way towards you soon. We will be back home soon, but I suggest you prepare the pack. A few vamps we captured informed us, they have close to 5000 vampires, and more are joining their cause each day. We have yet to get a location. " Ethan says "Keep us posted, " Adonis says and hangs up the call. "They will soon find out she is here and will come for her
Ares PovI ran into the woods after kissing her. I couldn't believe I had just fucking done that. What is wrong with me? And her powers started manifesting. Fuck!You are in love with mate, and the faster you accept it, the faster we can get on with marking her, as Luna Strike says. I'm not in love with her. I dislike omega. She came among my brothers. She is a slut. Dont be stupid human, you saw the papers. For all we know that fucker was probably raping her. I growled at the thought. Even if that were true, I can't allow myself to feel that. With the threat surrounding her, if I let feelings get involved, the vamps may see a weak spot and catch me off guard. I'm always guarded and never let them down. I refuse to let it down for her. Tell yourself what you need to Ares, but you forget, I'm apart of you. I know how you feel. Keep denying mate if you wish, but you and I know sooner or later, you will cave, Strike says and closes the link. I mentally rolled my eyes at him. I'll prov
Arabella Pov I'm hurt. Watching that pack slut wrap her arms around Ares and kiss him just broke me. Why was she even there? Suddenly I felt like the slut he had been calling me all this time. I can hear him pounding on the door to come in, but I can't. I just can't. Once I look at him, all the pain he has caused me will come facing me head-on, and if I have to keep the door closed to block the wave off, I will. Suddenly, I hear rattling and two people come in. My two other mates. They don't even know what to say, so they crawl into bed and just hold me while I cry. "He is a dick" I sniffled through my tears, and I could hear Ash's silent chuckle. "I wouldn't normally do this, but in his defense Bella, he pushed her away. I don't think he knew she was coming. She has an annoying habit of showing up in places she is not wanted", Ash states. "Why," I ask. I can feel both of them tense up and look at each other. I wipe my eyes and turn to face them. They look guilty. " Why," I ask
King Damon Pov I feel someone linking my mind. It's my beta.Sir, two vampires are requesting to speak with youSend them away. I'm busySir, they are looking for herI jumped up at that, already knowing her he was referring to. I hate vamps, but I have been building an army to storm the Black Alder Packhouse and take my special girl back with me, killing her mates in the process.Send them up. Right away sir10 minutes later, two pale men enter, one with black hair, one with pale blonde hair. Both are dressed in all black. Both have blood-red eyes. They bow and I nod."I am called Admen," the one with black hair says. "I am called Romero," the blonde man says. "What business do you have with my girl," I demanded. "We followed her trail here after we found some wolves throwing us off her scent. Our master looks for only her blood. We have told her blood is special" Admen says."What do you mean special," I asked them. "Sire, she is the last Pureblood elemental of the Wingoro Pac
Ash Pov"I'm going to take a shower," Arabella said to us as we went into the packhouse. "Okay princess," Ares says, hitting her butt as she walks past him. He turns around and I smirk at him. "What," he says, confused. "Nothing., just never thought I would see the day when you would be in love", I tell him, and he rolls his eyes going into the kitchen. "Bella thinks someone is watching her. If she feels that way, then she may be right. We may have a spy in our pack. The soldier said he didn't find anyone, but that didn't mean someone couldn't have slipped in” Adonis says lowly. " We will make sure we have someone to keep eyes on her at all times and around her in case we are not around her," Ares says, and we nod. "Let's do something fun for Bella tonight. She has been training so hard lately," I told them. "What did you have in mind?" Adonis asks. "We could take her to dinner" I suggested. Adonis shakes his head. "No, not that ass king, and the vampires are after her. It’s
Unknown Pov I must find her. Oh yes. I must. I know she is close. Soon I will have her, as the prophecy predicts I will. With her by my side, I can finally complete this task. One of my servants appeared before me in a puff of smoke. "Sire, I have found her," he says, bowing down."Where" I demanded."She is in the Southern Parkland of South Carolina, in a pack known as The Black Alder Pack""Then what are you waiting for? Bring her to me" I demand "As you wish, sir. There is a wolf king in North Carolina who has raised her, though I can tell it was violently. Sources say he abused her. He has tried to persuade us to join him in taking on his rival pack, Black Alder, to kidnap her. He has an insider in the pack who wishes to harm her. She is also surrounded by three powerful Lycans who are considered to be her mates. What is your will about this sire?" "Kill the King. Kill the Lycans. She belongs by my side. Kill him and bring her to me." 'As you wish, sire," he says, bowing and
