Alpha Mars’ POVAfter I did the press release a few days ago, everything has been falling to shit with the war against the Dark Alpha. My packs under my rule are slowly losing against the rogue attacks. When we think we are close to figuring out their plans, they change their attack. It’s like playing Wack-a-mole from an arcade game, a never-ending loop of random moves, popping up without warning. They are currently focusing on smaller packs, but eventually will work their way to packs with a more significant presence in the werewolf community. I have been sending out warriors and aid as quickly as possible, but It still doesn’t seem to be enough of an effort. One step forward, two steps back. It’s like a rogue wave has hit the states and we never know when it’s going to strike again.I have spent the entire night staring at maps of my territories trying to figure out a plan of attack. My Beta and Gamma, Hunter and Theo, are working tirelessly with me to come up with a solution to win
Alpha Mars’ POV“Alpha, The border patrol said the woman called herself ‘The Dark Alpha’s Pet’ and she has several rogue warriors with her and the children! Border patrol needs you and the Beta now! She wants to talk!” The voice behind the door grew frantic. Shit. Ciara’s there.I tried to rush out the door, but Beta Leon grabbed my arm. I growled at him in irritation; I didn’t have time for his bullshit as well. His Alpha was already on my office floor unconscious, I had no qualms taking this worthless Beta out as well.“Please Alpha King! Let me follow you and see my little girl to make sure she is alright. I want to try to apologize.” Beta Leon begged.The two young wolves stepped up as well, “Noah and I are coming too. Noah is my Beta, and I’m Alpha James, the future Alpha of the Crystal Lake Pack. We also want to apologize to her and hopefully it isn’t too late for her forgiveness.” The two names ring a bell from a long-ago text message with Ciara. Aren’t these the two who she tr
Alpha Mars’ POVI am listening my baby girl… Come on baby. You got my attention.Ciara smiles at me then winks, “A warning to you, Young King. The full moon will shine down on the Dark Alpha among a field of dead and living warriors.” Ciara has returned to her cold demeanor. She has never called me young king. She is definitely trying to hint at something. “He will reign victoriously…”‘Young King? That’s a weird thing to say.’ Hunter mind-links me. ‘And what’s with the sudden lyrical speech? It doesn’t suit her.’‘Asher and I think she is trying to tell us something. I hate to say this, but I think we need Benji.’ Benji has been in a bad place since Gregory’s funeral, a broken mate bond doesn’t always end well for the surviving mate. But I know she is the only one who can decipher Ciara’s codes since they have known each other the longest.‘Alpha, I don’t think that’s a good idea. She is really weak and may not be able to come here.’ Hunter frets through the mind-link.‘I think if I
Standing alone in the cold winter breeze, I mulled over Ciara’s information. About 20 thousand rogue warriors will be attacking the State packs and they are using magical portals to get around the states. How could someone become that powerful? To be able to command so many fucking rogues!So many questions ran through my mind that had so many different answers. Where they all rogue warriors? Could the number have been exaggerated to throw us off? Were the rogues being controlled or forced? We had a few reformed rogues, and they were actually decent human beings. Several I had worked with on a few stealth missions, and they were extremely intelligent and hard working. So many rogues just wanted to live peacefully.This was going to be the biggest battle the States had ever dealt with. Usually warriors could handle a few rogues on their own, but the numbers the Dark Alpha had, I actually feared for the states. One single rogue was no threat, but group them together and they could be ve
Queen Luna’s POVWalking away from my son to avoid a confrontation in front of the Omega staff was the last thing I wanted to do, but I had to upload the values of what a proper Luna Queen should be. I wish I could have grabbed Owen by the collar and shook him because I knew deep down in my bones that he had information on Liam, but I simply walked away with my assistant close behind. I only had a couple of ugly outbursts which I wasn’t too proud of and I was determined to remain collective.“Madam, is there anything I can get you? A glass of water?” My assistant knew me well that I was pushing down the frustration from the recent events, and I simply just shook my head. She knew I haven’t been in a good place for a while now since the death of my chosen mate, the king.I think back on how different my life would have been, if I was allowed to be with my fated mate, a warrior in the king’s army and as Beta’s daughter, I was suppose to keep my eyes on a higher prize. My father was the
Hazel’s POV“Miss Summers, your trial has been moved up til this evening at 8:00pm.” My attorney’s secretary informed me over the phone, and my heart sank. They moved up my trial? Why? Does Alpha Mars know about this?“Where’s Patterson? Isn’t he supposed to be here telling me what to say?” I question through the phone. Mr. Patterson was the attorney my father hired and so far, he has been completely worthless! He’s supposed to be a lawyer you can trust to get you out of any situation with his underhand illegal practices, but he hasn’t done anything but enjoy the money my father is paying him…“He’s at dinner, Miss Summers. Is there anything else I can do for you?” The woman on the phone dismissed me as if I were nothing more than some common nuisance! I am the future Queen! I demand respect, but she hangs up on me before I can utter my grievances.I have been under house arrest for what seems like forever since the Winter ball because of the baby. UGH! The baby. I don’t even want the
Hazel Summers' POV “ENOUGH! Miss Summers, control yourself and remain silent…. Alpha Michaels. Were you aware of Miss Summers’ pregnancy?” Alpha Mars’ command echoed throughout the conference room.“I wasn’t aware until I smelled my pup at the Winter Moon Ball. I even have a DNA test here to show that her pup is mine.” A mixture of whispers filled the room as Alpha Michael passed the document to Elder Grear so he could verify the document and add it into evidence.“Alpha King, this document proves the unborn pup is Alpha Michael’s heir.” Elder Grear said before sitting down and waiting for the Alpha King’s input.I closed my eyes and begged the Moon Goddess to have Alpha Mars spare me from my lie, but I could still be Luna. I didn’t do anything else wrong so I could still work all this in my favor. “My king, It was a simple misunderstanding! I assumed it was yours since we slept together and made love. Don’t you remember?”Ignoring my plea, Alpha Mars continued speaking with Alpha Mi
Ciara’s POVIt’s been two days… Two days since I saw my Owen on the open field close to his pack, but instead of thinking about how happy I was to see him, all I could think about was the count down til the end… End of the battle, End of the darkness, end of… me. I chuckle to myself because I know he got my clues. I thought I was pretty clever, Benji would have appreciated it.I am reclining on the couch in the living room of the small cabin in the mountain valley that the Dark Alpha originally brought me too. Since I agreed to be his Luna, I don’t have to stay in the cavern dungeon anymore, which is nice. I even am out of those awful Christmas sweaters that the Rogue Rocco liked to give the prisoners. Today I am wearing a pair of black tactical pants and a black tank top with a pair of black boots that totally make me look like a kick-ass action figure… A GI-JOE! I definitely smell a lot better since I can shower regularly, but keeping up the façade that I am on his side is starting
