LOGINDaniel is realizing how much work he has ahead of him and both Calvin and Amelia need to learn how to compromise.
OliviaAs soon as we arrive at the competition, I hear Cameron calling out to me as if he’s been waiting for me to arrive.“Mom!”When I turn, he comes jogging over and pulls me into a hug. “How are you? I heard you got Azure back.” He pulls back so he can look for her in my eyes.She pushes forward. “Hello, my son, I’ve missed you.”I watch as Jarek pushes forward and begins purring loudly.“Hello, mother. I’ve missed you so much.”He pulls me into a hug again, this time rubbing his face against mine.We let our wolves have their moment, then I pull Azure back.“Cameron, I want you to meet someone,” I say, gesturing at Olander where he’s waiting patiently for us to have our moment.“I already know Dr. Olander, mother. Hello, doctor, how are you? Thank you again for protecting my mother.”“You’re very welcome,” he says softly. His throat is still healing from where Alexander injured him.“Cameron,” I say, waiting until he focuses on me again. “I want to introduce you to my mate.”He s
Daniel“So, your mate didn’t want anything to do with you either when you met her?” I ask as I follow Alpha Ezra to where he begins setting up his battle ring.“Not only did she not want anything to do with me, she expected to die when she killed her first mate. I wasn’t about to let that happen, so when she killed him, I marked her to make sure she didn’t,” he says, shrugging. “We were in the middle of a battlefield, and I knew she preferred death to living with the man who mistreated her. I lost my first mate to suicide. She couldn’t handle the public mating process. She took my unborn daughter with her. I wasn't willing to lose another mate, even if it meant that Margot would hate me.”He stops and I give him a moment to collect himself.“Margot was NOT happy when she woke up and saw my mark on her,” he says, smiling. “But I told her I’d wait as long as she needed to trust me enough to mark me.”He pulls his shirt aside to show me her mark on his neck.“How long did it take?” I ask.
OliviaI’m a bit nervous about showing up at the competition officially as Olander’s mate. Only a few people know that I’ve accepted Ollie as my mate. Even my friend June and my son, Cameron, don’t know yet. Alexandra only knows because we’ll be returning to hers and Reese’s pack after this weekend. However, I know that Ollie will want everyone to know that I’ve accepted him.Rahl still hasn’t returned, but we’re both hoping that being outside and in the fresh air this weekend will help bring him forward.“The nervous energy pouring off you is palpable, Liv. Tell me what has you worried,” Ollie says from where he’s sitting beside me.We drove separately from Alpha Dante and Luna Eve since we’re returning to Reese’s pack, but this will also allow us to leave early if this weekend is too much for Ollie.Since he’s still recovering, I’m driving. Dante insisted that some of the warriors drive with us to make sure nothing happens. We don’t expect Koden to attack us, but he didn’t want to ta
CalvinI hate to admit it, but Amelia was right about this environment being overwhelming for me. I already feel exhausted. Besides the number of people who are milling around, I spent the trip here catching up with Anthony about what is going on in the pack, then was introduced to the new Alphas in our alliance and which packs they’ve taken over. Then, the whole incident with Alpha Daniel and Charity occurred.However, as I look around, trying to see things through Amelia’s eyes, I realize that everyone is still preparing for tomorrow’s event.“Alpha Ezra, do you have time to speak with me now?”I turn to see Alpha Daniel talking to Alpha Ezra.“I need to set up my area for tomorrow. Come with me and we’ll talk,” Alpha Ezra says.“Alpha Calvin, would you like to join me, or are you going to go with Amelia and Charity.”Since I’m fairly confident that my mate doesn’t want to speak with me right now, and I honestly don’t have the strength to keep fighting with her, I tell Hunter that I’
AmeliaThe moment I heard Charity’s panicked cry, I raced to find her. There’s no way Koden got through all the people here to get to her, but I’d know her terrified voice anywhere. I’ve gotten up enough nights when she was having a nightmare to know it well.As I rushed up to her, I looked around, trying to find the source of her fear. The scent of it is overwhelming as I pull her into my arms. When I see a group of Alphas blocking someone from view, I snarl.“Who is it?”“It’s him. It’s him. Please Amelia, don’t let him near me,” Charity cries.Kinsley walks over from where she was standing with the Alphas.“Koden is here?” I growl.“No, it's not Koden. It’s Alpha Daniel, who is apparently Charity’s mate,” she says, watching Charity.“Alpha Daniel, Alpha David’s brother?” I ask.“Yes. He just arrived and was getting introduced to us when he caught Charity’s scent,” she says.I know the other Alphas won’t let him try to claim Charity, but right now, she’s my priority.I turn, keeping
DanielGoddess, I hope this isn’t some sort of trap.I was shocked when I received a call from a very confident woman stating that my brother was dead and his pack was vacant. She wanted to know if I had plans to take over the pack lands or sell the property and if I was going to sell, she wanted first right of refusal.I’ll admit, I was intrigued. My brother and I never agreed on anything. Because he was born first, he was Alpha and he didn’t care that I thought he was being too forward with Jacqueline. He told me I could get on board with how he was doing things, or I could get out of his pack.So, I left and began making my own way in the world.Then Luna Nikki called me. Since I’ve learned that you can’t always trust what someone tells you, I let that guy, Koden, go when he ended up on my pack lands. I hope I won’t end up regretting that.‘I hope we won’t end up regretting this,’ Elstan, my wolf says, as I drive to what used to be Alpha Zahn’s pack lands. Apparently, he’d dead now,
