The Forgotten Princess & her Beta Mates

I walk into my bedroom and grab my suitcases from the back of my closet, I place them on my bed to start packing the remainder of my belongings. There are only a few sets of clothes left in my closet and only the daily necessities in the bathroom.Most of the things I want to take with me are already in my suitcases, I made the decision to leave Shadow Valley Pack at my Sweet Sixteen party and I already know where I am going.I will be going to the Elders, to learn everything I need to learn to become the best Beta I can be and I will find a Pack that will appreciate me for who I am.My weapons are in the trunk of my car, I take them out every time I need them and place them back after I have cleaned them. All that is left is my luggage and then I will make sure that everyone understands who are responsible for me leaving.Okay, let’s get introductions out of the way. My name is Dallas, I am eighteen years old and my Lycan, Charna, showed up a year ago. My life hasn’t been a bed of ro

Daxton’s p.o.v.“Good morning, Daxton.” I hear Carl, our future Alpha, say. I doubt it is a good morning if he is standing behind me, he only comes looking for me if someone told him to come and get me.“Who send you?” I ask him, as I turn to face him. I want to look into his eyes when he answers me, it will tell me if he is aware of why he was send here.“My Mother, I believe it has to do with an invitation from Shadow Valley Pack. Between you and me, I think Dad might order you to go.” Carl answers and I know that he is telling the truth.I am forty seven and I still haven’t found my true Mate-bond, I never met a woman my Lycan felt a connection with. I have been waiting for twenty nine years to find that connection, but so far I haven’t been able to find her and I gave up on finding her years ago.The people around me are still hoping that I will find her one day, they want me to go to other Packs to look for her. I did that for over a decade with no results and now I no longer wan

Dallas’ p.o.v.Okay, this is not what I had been expecting. I don’t believe anyone in our Squad had seen it coming and I am still a little baffled.Captain Jordan announced his retirement at the ceremony that would make me a full pledged member of the Squad, but it turned out to go a little differently after his announcement.Elder Jensen had appointed me as the new Squad Captain and everyone had started cheering for me, but I had been unable to say a word. I have been here a little over six months and now I have my own Squad.I know there have been a few others that made Squad Captain within a year of arriving, but I am not sure if this is what I want or need in my life at the moment.I mean, it is an honor that they believe that I can handle this. There is a downside to it though, I might have to visit Shadow Valley Pack and I am not sure if I am ready for that at the moment.“Captain, Elder Jensen wants to see you. He is waiting in your office.” Joshua, my second in command, says a

Darius’ p.o.v.The entire week I keep thinking about Ruth’s remark, why hadn’t I thought of it myself?“Too busy with ignoring them, too busy with avoiding them.” Camus, my Lycan, says.He is right, Daxton and I have been busy with keeping our meddling Mother at bay. If we could stay away from our Mother and Daniella, we would.“Preston, we need to talk after dinner.” I say, knowing that he will understand that I don’t want anyone else to hear what I have say.I walk into the dining room to see that our Mother and Daniella are once again sitting at our table, Daxton is standing near the window and the look in his eyes is murderous.“Daxton, just know that I want what is best for you. You will never find that connection, you are too old and a chosen Mate is your only option.” Mother says and I get brought back to Ruth’s remark.I know that history tells us that Shifters usually find their connection between eighteen and thirty, but ever since we found our new way of finding a Mate, the

Daxton’s p.o.v.Like every night, I wake up covered in sweat. I had another nightmare, but like always I can’t remember what is was about.I have had this nightmare for almost twenty seven years and I can’t remember a single detail after waking up, not one single thing that can help me understand this. No sound, no smell, no image.At first I thought it might have something to do with Sage, but as time passed and details kept alluding me, I gave up hope to find answers in that nightmare.I say nightmare, because I feel trapped afterwards and it never is a good feeling. The sweat is also telling me that it is a nightmare and even after all these years I hate waking up like this.Almost as if the events from twenty seven years ago happened all over again, but just like back then I can’t remember a damn thing and it is frustrating the hell out of me.Cyran growls in my head, he hates this as much as I do and no matter what we have tried, we just can’t remember what happened that night wi
