Prince Alpha Orion
I had just finished organising the extra patrols with my Beta Haggen when the report of the fourth missing teenager came in . That was the fourth in two months , second this month alone . The packs are looking to us for answers being the Royal Pack . I can't remember the last time I slept more than an hour at a time .
“ How can this be happening , we have nothing, no clues or evidence “ I say more to myself than to anyone in the room , while running my hand through my already messy head of black curls .
I haven't shifted for a few days and my wolf Onix , was starting to get agitated , being an Alpha wolf he needs to shift at least once a day . The fact I am 22 years old and haven't yet found my mate was taking its toll on us both . I was due to travel the packs to see if I could scent her , I am beginning to believe the goddess forgot about us .
“ Alpha Orion sir , we can confirm the missing teen was in fact another male “ Says one of my head warriors coming into the war room .
“ Thank you Harris , anything else to report ? “ I ask while running my hand over my now stubbly face , from lack of any kind of self care . “ yes sir , the teen was from the Blood river pack , male and once again pre shift “ he answers .
The look on my Beta Haggen’s face must mirror mine . “ So that's a teen from each pack including our pack “ he replies . “ When should we make an announcement ? Alpha, do you think we should put a curfew in place for all pre shift teens , until we know more? “ My Beta asks , looking extremely stressed .
Sitting down with a defeated feeling , with no actual clue where to start . These are innocents , they don't even have their wolves to help them . “ So all we know is that there are now four male teens missing , no blood , DNA or witnesses ? All we know is each teen was taken from Neutral city "I say to the room .
“ Yes Alpha , they had been attending some unlicensed cage fights . “ Harris replies . I suddenly looked up “ are you telling me that every missing teen was attending the same place ?” My voice is almost a growall . How had I missed that bit of information? “ So we have a place to start then , I need a date and time of the next fight night “ I say standing up , deciding to let Onix out before he rips my brain apart .
Getting to the edge of the forest that surrounds the main pack house I quickly strip, letting Onix come forward . With a giant leap I land on my massive paws , and shake out my shiny black fur . Taking a back seat and letting my wolf take control for a bit I start to go over in my head what we have already got regarding the missing teens .
After a couple of hours , and some hunting I shift back quickly, get dressed and head in ready to retire for the night and hopefully get some sleep .
Waking early the next morning i felt a lot better , feeling rested with some sort of plan formed to try catch the sick fuck whos taking these teens , and hopefully find them unharmed but somethings telling me it wont be quite as easy as i hope for .
I arrived at the war room just before 6am , and an omega came in with a pot of fresh coffee. “ thanks Alice '' I say as she bows and leaves . I open the mind-link requesting that my Beta and head warriors join me .
Ten minutes later the room is filled with my most skilled and trusted men . The only one missing is my Gamma Lex , he is visiting the south coven on other business .
“ So I will get started gentleman , it seems like we have a bit of a breakthrough “ I stand and say . With everyone's attention on me I decide to continue . “ Last night Harris informed me that all teens missing were last seen at an organised cage fight in Neutral city .”
The first to ask questions was Puck , he was one of my best warriors but also the uncle to the missing teen from our pack . “ Wait , are we talking about the ones held in the old warehouse just off the industrial park east side of the city? “ he asks with a frown .
I look to Harris waiting for him to fill us in on his findings . “ yes that's the very ones , they are held every friday night . It's quite a tight knitted organisation . There seems to be quite a lot of cash changing hands , the gambling is high ." " Thank you harris , do we have an address and is it hard to get entry to ?” I ask Harris . “ No sir , it seems my contact can get us entry for up to five “ He replied .
“ Thank you Harris . So we have four days to prepare. I think we should hold off on the curfew. We don't want to alert the assailant to us or the fact we have a lead on them . That's all gents, please don't discuss this with anyone as we don't know who the perp is yet and we don't want to miss the opportunity to get our teens back . “ I say before slumping back into my seat , feeling a little more positive about the situation moving forward , even if it is only a small lead .
[Epilogue part 2]9 years later Alpha Prince Saint pov My head is banging as I sit and listen to my father lecture me on drinking too much . He wouldn’t understand even if I tried to explain to him , my parents' relationship is the strongest I have ever seen . Rubbing my temple , I have been drowning out his consistent talking until her name was mentioned . Bellatrix , the only female i have ever loved , but i fucked it up . Six months ago I broke her heart and every day I have hated myself for it . I can't remember how or why it happened , I have never ever looked at another female ever . For some reason I ended up so drunk I can't even remember getting back to the packhouse, never mind the female who was lying naked next to me . Six months I have tried to piece together that night but the only thing that ever is there is the look on Bellatrix’s face the morning she stood in the doorway to my room with coffee in hand like she did every other morning . The look on her beautiful fa

She is a lovely little thing , at the age of three she just follows Emerald around and my princess never gets fed up , no she just looks after her .

Leonor pov We are all waiting outside the delivery room for the birth of the future Gamma to happen , it's been almost two hours . I have never seen Lex looking so stressed out, poor guy . I have just finished checking on the twins when the first screeches of a new life entering this world reach our ears . Lex bursts through the door looking rather dishevelled and flushed “ It’s a boy , we have a son .” We all cheer before he goes back in the room to his mate and son . I feel Orion’s big strong arms wrap around me from behind , he kisses my temple . “ Well, it looks like Saint now has his Gamma .” Orion says with a proud look on his face . After another half hour we are allowed in to visit Fallon and her new baby son . Fallon as always is sitting up looking like she hasn't just given birth , the look of pure love on her face as she gazes at her new pup . Lex is sitting beside her , a protective arm around his little family . What was the best part was seeing Lilith being trul
1 year later Leonor pov I can't help but laugh as Fallon still tries to carry Emerald with her swollen stomach , the toddler perched on top of her bump . My daughter is still the apple of her aunt's eyes , she takes her everywhere . Although with Fallon ready to have her pup soon she is getting tired and uncomfortable . Saint on the other hand is Mr Independant , even at such a young age he likes to do things his way . Orion loves taking him with him when he's able to . The twins are ok about being apart except when tired they like each other's presence , it gives them comfort . Jewel and Onix are obsessed with the twins . With them now walking it can get extremely tiresome . l try to train at least three times a week , sometimes they watch from the side with Samantha and Jess . My little sister is blossoming into a lovely confident little girl . She is like a little mother with the twins , she makes me smile especially when she tells Saint off for growling at her . Yes my golden
Princess Fallon pov Watching my brother take the throne is honestly one of the most emotional things I have ever been involved in . Leonor is perfect for him and the best sister I could ever have wished for , even if she terrifies me when she is mega pissed off . They completely worship each other . Len and my mother have become really close , I am glad as mum lost her wolf and I know it has affected her more than she lets on . I visit with my father once a day to give him a boost and keep his health as well as we can with a terminal diagnosis . The twins have definitely helped keep his spirits up , I have caught him telling them stories when he thinks he's alone . I am slightly concerned for Lil , I know she is incredibly strong but the unease among the covens is getting worse . She’s been worried about telling Len so she has been sounding off with me and a glass of wine . She is looking tired , I know Haggen is worried and trying to be with her as much as he can . I am currently
Leonor pov It's finally the day of Orion and I’s coronation. It's been a long time coming . The twins are almost a month old and the Queen , well Orion's mother has been amazing . She has helped me the whole time . When I cried she wiped my tears , when I wanted to shout and scream she just let me . I thank the Goddess for her , it still breaks my heart that we couldn't save her wolf . I think having the twins has helped fill that hole in her heart just a bit , you can never fully replace your wolf . When I was without Jewel it was some of my darkest days , your head is just too quiet . I have just finished feeding Saint , Jewel is mesmerised by him . She says she can feel his wolf spirit already and he is strong . Her protectiveness kicks in with Emerald though , she says her pure light is so special in this world . My pups are adored by everyone who meets them . After a lot of persuasion I finally agreed to ask Samantha if she would like to be a part time nanny to my pups . A
