Mason Crescent 

"I don't think it's a good idea." My younger sister Brooklyn was a tiny, blond thing but you wouldn't know it by looking at her right then. At that moment, her blue eyes were blazing at me with fury.  

"Why not?" Brooklyn demanded. "You know Mia. She's my best friend. She's extremely capable and she---" 

"I've offered her the job before," I said, "she wouldn't take it. She said she'd rather get run over by a bus then work for me. What could have possibly changed since the last time that I asked?" 

Brooklyn grinned. "She's pregnant." 

I stilled at her words. "Pregnant?" 

Brooklyn nodded. "She thinks it happened at Meredith's bachelorette party. You know, in Vegas? And the two of you disappeared and well…" 

I knew what the and well was. Because I hadn't told Brooklyn why I had been so hard on her little friend ever since I met her. Once I told her the truth, that would completely change their dynamic. But if Mia was pregnant, the child was definitely mine. Because while I couldn't totally remember Vegas, I did remember waking up in Mia's bed that morning after taking her to her room when she'd gotten so drunk, she could barely stand. 

And I had maybe been drunk too. 

And there was the small detail that Mia Conner was my mate. I was the alpha of the Crescent wolf pack. My father had given up his position to me when I turned twenty-one, and now at twenty-seven, I was the CEO of our family's company. When I had met Mia several years ago when she'd been in college with my sister, I had known right away that she was my mate. 

I'd shook her hand and seen a flash of the two of us together, getting married, and Mia with a baby in her arms. My wolf had growled when he'd seen her. But Mia had been only eighteen at the time, and we'd been dealing with a war. 

There was a rival wolf pack, Carina, that had kidnapped my other sister Meredith against her will the previous summer in an attempt to try and force me to give up power. I'd refused and my best friend and my beta, Owen, had gone undercover to rescue her which was how they'd gotten together. It hadn't been safe to reveal who I was to Mia then. 

But now… 

"What exactly are you insinuating, Brooklyn?" I said. 

Brooklyn rolled her eyes. "Please, you haven't been subtle about anything. I know, Mason. I've known since the two of you met back on my move-in day freshman year. She's your mate. And the packs future Luna. And she's having your baby. You need to step up and tell her." 

I sighed, and ran a hand through my short, brown hair. "She hates me." 

"She doesn't hate you," said Brooklyn, "she doesn't know you. Give her this job. She'll get to see the real Mason Crescent and you can work on making her fall in love with you. By Summer, you'll be having a June wedding." 

I growled a little, and stroked my chin.

"So," said Brooklyn, "what will it be?" 

Mia was pregnant. With my baby. And she didn't even know that she was my mate. "She's human. She wasn't born into being a werewolf. What if she doesn't want to be my mate? She could always reject me…and considering how dangerous it is for humans with werewolves---" 

Brooklyn glared at me. "Oh, come on Mason. Don't be an idiot. You're not going to reject her. If anyone can win her over, it's you. You're rich, charming, and handsome. The whole package. There's no reason that she wouldn't want you." 

"If I'm with her, she'll always be a target. She won't be able to protect herself." 

"You can teach her," said Brooklyn, "you're an excellent fighter." 

"It won't be enough," I said, "and I don't want her to end up like our mother." 

"But she's your mate. Our Luna. And she's going to be having your child." 

I shook my head. "I'm sorry, Brooklyn. The best thing that I can do for Mia is to let her go. She won't be safe here." 

Brooklyn growled at him, and her eyes glowed yellow. "You are being impossible." 

"Am I?" I said. "Think of it, Brooklyn. If I tell Mia that she's my mate, she's going to know that you're a werewolf too. It will destroy everything. No, it's better that she doesn't know who she is." 

"You're really going to let your child grow up without you?" Brooklyn asked. "She won't be able to survive on her own. And your child is going to be a werewolf, too. The future alpha of this pack. Think of how dangerous it will be for that kid to grow up without their family." 

"It will be fine," I said, "I'll make sure that Mia is taken care of." 

"How exactly are you planning on doing that?" Brooklyn said. 

I ran a hand through my hair. "I don't know, but I'm going to do whatever it takes to make sure that she is taken care of. She just won't be with me. It's for the best." 

"You're unbelievable," said Brooklyn, "and by the way, I finally got funding for my new app. So, consider this my resignation. If you aren't going to do what's right for Mia and your child, then I am going to do what's right for me and never see you again." 

"Mia, you don't know what you're saying." 

"I know exactly what I'm saying." Brooklyn stormed from my office, and left me alone.

  • The Lost Alpha Heir    Seventy-four: Mia Crescent

    Seventy-four:Mia Crescent Somehow, I had survived the fight. Mason took me back to New York. Valentina was dead. My uncle was dead. My brother was dead. And Edwina had nearly died in the process, but she had managed to survive somehow. There was also something strange that had passed between her and Cole that I couldn’t explain. One day, back in New York when Harper and I had been reunited, I had been having lunch with her in the big kitchen as Mason was off working on something pack related for me. I heard fighting coming down the stairs. “We’re not talking about this,” Edwina hissed. “We have to,” this came from Cole. The two of them came into the kitchen. They didn’t even notice me and Harper sitting inn the kitchen together as they talked. “It was stupid!” Edwina shouted. “I made a mistake. That’s it. We’re not going to do anything. It’s wrong.” “Look, you’re from the same world as me,” said Cole

  • The Lost Alpha Heir    Seventy-three: Mason Crescent

    Seventy-three:Mason Crescent The fight had been brutal. Not everyone had survived. The hunters were dead. Oliver was dead. Barrett, who had been a traitor the whole time, was dead. We were in one of the witches homes. Valentina had ended up getting burned alive. She was dead. Turned to ash. Edwina was almost drained of her power. My wife, my precious Mia, was hanging from a thread. She lay on one of the beds in the guest room of one of the high priestesses of the coven. I didn’t even know the woman’s name. All I could focus was that Mia was near death. It seemed that the rumors of mates dying when the other died were just that. Rumors. But when she was weak, I could feel it. I was struggling to even bring myself to her side. “Brother,” said Cole, “are you alright?” I reached out and I grasped my wife’s hand as though simply by touching her that I would be able to gain some of her strength. Or maybe ma

  • The Lost Alpha Heir    Seventy-two: Mia Crescent

    Seventy-two:Mia Crescent It happened the same way it happened with Stacy. My wolf sensed the danger before I saw it. The hunters had known exactly where we were, but judging by the look on Valentina and Edwina’s faces, neither of them had planned on the hunters finding us. I didn’t know how that had happened. Someone had to have betrayed us. Then, through the crowd, I saw someone coming forward. My uncle, Barrett. He was holding something in his hands. Edwina let out a scream. “Oliver!” her wail echoed through the desert. “You know, Mia, I think you’re a bit too trusting. I don’t think that’s going to make for a good leader. So, I think I’m going to have to destroy you and your whole family. Because you weren’t even raised as a werewolf. You thought you were a fucking human for most of your life. You had no idea that you were even being watched by some of the deadliest people on the planet for most of your life.

  • The Lost Alpha Heir    Seventy-one: Mason Crescent

    Seventy-one:Mason Crescent I wanted to trust Mia. And I did. But it wasn’t Mia that I had the problem with. It was Valentina. Valentina was notoriously power hungry. As we followed her and Edwina to wherever they were taking us, I kept on thinking of Camden, lying there, dead. It was the hunters that were responsible. But I couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something worse coming. “Are you alright?” Mia asked. “You’ve been quiet this whole time.” I shook my head. “It’s nothing.” “Your eyes are glowing and you are clenching your jaw,” Mia told me, “There’s something going on in that head of yours. Why don’t you tell me what’s going on?” “I’m keeping my mouth shut,” I told her, “Because if I say something, you’re going to get pissed at me. I don’t want you pissed at me. I know you’re trying to be an Alpha. I want this to work for you. But I don’t trust Valentina. I know how her mind works.” Mia sn

  • The Lost Alpha Heir    Seventy: Mia Crescent

    SeventyMia Crescent I knew the minute that Mason arrived. I could feel him. Stacy was unconscious and tied to a chair. Without thinking, I left her alone and ran from the bakery down the stairs to the front where Mason had only just gotten out of his truck. “Mason!” I called out. He ran to me, picked me up, and twirled me around in his arms as he kissed me. I could only feel him. There was someone coughing behind us and Mason quickly put us down. I glanced over at Cole and couldn’t help but be sheepish. “Sorry Cole,” I apologized. Cole rolled his eyes. “It’s fine. But you know, we’re kind of in a life-or-death situation here. You’re the ones that have a daughter that you would like to reunite with. We should probably focus on taking out the bad guy’s thing first.” Mason smirked. “Don’t worry, brother. We know exactly what we need to do. Where’s the girl?” “In my apartment,” I told him. “Come on,” he s

  • The Lost Alpha Heir    Sixty-Nine: Mason Crescent

    Sixty-nine: Mason Crescent There were two, beat up men in the back of the truck Cole and I had driven down. Hunters that had tried to take us out. Mia had already been attacked by another one, a woman that she’d known back in California. “If you grip that steering wheel any harder, you’re going to break it,” Cole warned. “They were right fucking there!” I hissed, slamming my hand against the center console as I drove. “I stayed away from Mia and Harper to make sure that they were safe. The whole time, they were in danger. I fucking wasted time that I could have been with my wife and daughter, Cole. And I didn’t even know Mia was my wife until recently.” Cole coughed. “That’s my fault. I’m sorry. Cal and I shouldn’t have interfered. We just wanted you happy and you were being so stubborn about the whole Mia thing because you thought she was human…” “I didn’t trust her,” I said, “I should have. I should have known t
