Alpha Mars’ POVHow in the hell was Ciara able to ignore the control of the golden cuff’s command? From what I read in the journals and watching her fight against the command to reject me, she should be on her knees in dire pain. Instead, she is cracking insults and smiling at me like it’s a random Tuesday and this was normal for her. In one breath, she is insulting the Dark Alpha’s intelligence then in the next flirting with me.“Have I told you how sexy you look in all beast mode, Alpha God of War and all? Makes my vajay-jay hollaaaaa…” I hear Ciara giggle in my direction, and I can’t help but smile at her goofiness. She momentarily distracts me from the concern that is swelling inside of me and I smirk.“Have I told you how fucking amazingly sexy you look all warrior princess like? This is the wrong fucking time for my cock to get hard, baby girl.” I purr, feeling my dick get hard from her calling me a beast. I couldn’t quit understand what was happening to Ciara, but I was happy s
Alpha Mars’ POV “If the Dark Alpha was making a run for it, I bet he would have run in the direction they came from.” Hunter slaps me on the shoulder before jogging towards the distant mountains. “I will go get the medic jeep just in case and be right behind you.” Theo says and takes off in the opposite direction as we begin to run towards the distant mountains. My alpha squad always knows what needs to be done before I even have to say it. We run towards the distant mountains avoiding the dead rogues and warriors. My heart acks for all those who have died for this pointless war the Dark Alpha started. I send out mind-link out to all the warriors to start collecting our dead so we could give them a proper warrior send off. “NO ONE MOVE OR SHE DIES!” The scent of wolfsbane catches on the wind and reaches my nose sending my heart plummeting. We reached the tree line and freeze. Ciara and the Dark Alpha are both almost unrecognizable. Both covered in blood, both with deep gash wounds
Ciara’s POV “Ciara.” A soft voice reached my ears gently bringing me back to my new reality. The lightness I feel surrounding me is in complete contrast to the heaviness I felt when I was alive. Peace. Peace is all I feel now. I’m lying on the soft earth in a large field of beautiful lavender and wildflowers enjoying the warmth of the spring day. A simple breeze blew over the fragrant flowers lulling me into a calming euphoric rest. I wasn’t awake nor was I sleeping, just resting. Ember’s big furry head laid on my chest, her body close to mine; her soft snores matched my slow steady breathing. “Ciara, my child, wake up.” I squint my eyes open to see a pair of brilliant crystal blue eyes peering down at me. Her silver long hair blew around her in the spring breeze. “Hey MG, what’s happening!” I ask, stretching my arms and legs out with Ember still resting on my stomach. “M? G?” Selene, the moon goddess asks with her eyebrows furrow together. Even when she is looking at me li
Alpha Mars' POV (Several weeks after the Battle)“Wake up…” I plead as I hold Ciara’s lifeless hand. “Please…” I beg, but I get no response from my mate. Ciara has been unconscious for weeks since the battle against the rogues and Dark Alpha; tubes and wires attached to machines cover her body, making her barely recognizable.As she seems to wither away, so do I. I am the Alpha King, but I feel lifeless without my mate. I have been reduced to a pile of nothingness because of this woman who I love with everything I have, but I refuse to give up on her. She is my everything. I have completely ignored my Alpha duties and just sit here next to her bed, watching her.“Dr. Nancy says your wounds have been healing slowly since the surgery.” I give a small smile and talk to Ciara, hoping she can hear me, but then I get choked up thinking about all that has happened. “You died…You were declared dead…” I sniffle out, “Dr. Nancy still can’t figure out how your heart started on it own. She said y
Alpha Mars’ POVI stare at my mothers’ retreating back in complete confusion. “What the fuck just happened?” My mind couldn’t handle another fucking thing to worry about. Wasn’t only a few months ago, my mother was calling Ciara some no-name whore? Now she’s fussing over her blankets, checking over her, and warning me about the fucking council? Plus, she admitted to her mistakes in her own way?“Boss, I think we need to take heed of her words about those sneaky old bastards.” Hunter pulled out his phone from his back pocket, working over the screen with his finger. “There’s nothing on the pack calendar for a meeting, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t meeting in private. I need to get a hold of Elder Mayfield. She’s always been on your side and will know what’s going on. I’ll be back shortly.” Then he rushed out the door without another word.Theo patted my shoulder as he stood as well. “I better get back to my family. Antonia will bring more food later. No te preocupes, Ok? No worries
Alpha Mars' POV Ciara’s beautiful smokey gray eyes squinted up at me then fluttered in and out of focus. She tried to adjust her position on the bed, but she was stiff from laying still for weeks. She let out a soft groan but couldn’t get any words out. She tried to speak again, but her eyes widen in realization instead, clutching at her throat in panic. Shit that fucking tube in her mouth… She was struggling to breathe! I just got her back and now she’s going to die from fixation from a fucking life-support tube!“I’ll get someone to help!” Artemis ran out of the room while Freya stood motionless crying, and my sister Olivia just looked uncomfortable since she has never met Ciara before.I pulled my chair closer to Ciara, “Its ok, Baby… someone will be here soon to take that fucking thing out. Keep your eyes on me. That’s it, baby… Look at me… I got you!” I smiled at her still holding and kissing her fingertips as I continued to whisper sweetly to her. “I am not going anywhere. You a
Ciara’s POV Every inch of my body was stiff like a pole was shoved up my back. My muscles refused to work, my brain was foggy, and I am pretty sure my bladder was about to explode. A numb tingling feeling like when my foot falls asleep was crawling all over my skin. Basically, I was miserable. ‘Ember are we dead?’ I whined through our link. I started wiggling my toes and fingers slowly getting some sensation back. Every slight movement was a small blessing. I guess the moon goddess wasn’t going to make things easy by letting me magically rise from the dead like a phoenix… Nope she had to go the zombie route. Snort. ‘You aren’t dead, Frankenstein, just stiff… You need to keep moving your body. I’m working on healing you…’ Ember was a wonderful sight to see in my mind. I couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Ember, is it weird without our friends with you?’ She nodded, ‘yeah it’s a bit lonely without their presence, but at least we have the memories.’ I smiled at that…. ‘Now open your eyes, I
Alpha Mars’ POVIs she out of her mind!?! She’s supposed to be resting and recovering from nearly dying! Not fucking being wheeled around by my warriors. And that pissed me off even more! The three warriors who were placed to guard her, brought her here to the courtroom and didn’t even bat a fucking eye on going against my command.I look over at Hunter who is smiling like a fucking idiot, secretly holding two thumbs up in approval at his mate, Freya. She smiled widely at him then blushed. Fucking, dammit!“What is your mate doing here? Shouldn’t she be resting? What if she gets sick again from the cold? What if something bad happens to her? This isn’t safe…” My mother fussed in my ear, but I waved her away. Those same thoughts were running through my mind, but what could I do? Ciara is a stubborn thing, but I loved her for it.“I hear you are trying to decide what my fate should be.” Ciara’s voice is calm and collected, just like a powerful Luna should be. “It’s considered rude to ta
