June

Returning to the pack that was my home for over thirty years is difficult. I have some good memories here, but most of them, especially at the end, were not good.

We arrived the day before the others who will come tour the packs the weekend before the competition. We wanted to make sure the packhouse was clean enough for the pregnant she-wolves and mothers with young pups to sleep inside. I stand in front of my previous home and watch as the omegas begin carrying cleaning supplies inside w

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 45: Going for a Visit

    OliviaI didn’t expect to fall asleep so quickly in Dr. Olander’s arms. But he’s such a kind and gentle man that I felt safe and cared for.It was different than it is with Reese. Reese feels like another son to me, whereas, Dr. Olander feels … Well, I’m not really sure what he feels like. I just know the feelings that I have for him are not familial. I like being around him and surprisingly, I liked being his arms. His soft scent of orange, grapefruit, and vetiver calmed me. Without consciously realizing it, I’d curled against him, tucking my face against his neck. Thankfully, he didn’t seem to mind. I’m not sure how long he held me, but I didn’t wake up for hours. It was the best night’s sleep I’ve had in a very long time.When I go downstairs, I find Dr. Olander in the dining room talking to Reese.“Hey, Olivia, how are you? How did you sleep?” Reese asks, coming over and kissing me on the cheek. Goddess, this man is so sweet. I’m so glad he’s mated to my daughter. She definitely de

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 45: Battle Plans

    HunterI’m lost in my mate’s scent, the way I always get lost in her scent when I’m kissing her. She came into my office to ask me something with our newborn in her arms. I could smell the milk on my third pup, my second daughter, when they walked in. I love smelling my mate on my pups almost as much as I love smelling me on my mate.She laid Neith in the crib in my office and had come over to ask me something, but I pulled her into my lap and began kissing her, wanting to show her how much I love her.She responded instantly, just like she always does. Then she’d wrapped her arms around my neck and leaned against me as her orchid scent began to fill this space around us along with the sound of her sweet whimpers.I’ve just slid my hand up under her shirt, when Remington’s voice pushes through the Alpha link.‘We have eyes on Koden.’I pull away and look at my mate.“Damn it!” I growl, making her smile.‘Where?’ Amelia asks instantly in the link. She’s obviously the most concerned abou

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 44: Split Duties

    JocelynI’m starting to realize how difficult it is to split my time between The Watch Tower and Remington and my pack and Amelia. The longer Remington and I are together, the more I want to be with him. But I’m the Beta of my pack and I can’t let Amelia down, especially since she’s still dealing with her mate being in a coma.However, today I’m headed back to The Watch Tower. It’s been a couple of days and there’s a lot going on around our packs, especially in the southern packs. In my conversations with Remington, I’ve realized that he’s not sleeping very much, worried that he and the warriors in the pack might miss something.‘Jocelyn,’ his voice purrs in my head sending shivers through my body. We may not have completed our bond, but at moments like this, I’m reminded that it’s still alive and well. These feelings that I have for Remington will only get stronger, becoming more intense if or when I get to a point where I’m ready to accept him as my mate.I look up and see him standi

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 43: Reunion

    DanteAfter checking with Reese and Jake to make sure they didn’t need help disposing of the four scouts, I introduced myself to Dr. Samuel.“I am Alpha Dante. I am one of the twelve Alphas in the allied packs that are providing sanctuary to those who need protection. I am also Eve’s fated mate,” I tell him.He sucks in a breath. “But Alpha Corey …”“She rejected him and whether or not he accepted the rejection, both of our wolves recognize the mate bond. My understanding is that Corey wasn’t her fated mate.”“No, he chose Eve because of her beauty,” he says, making Ranael growl possessively.Dr. Samuel raises his hands in supplication. “Those were his words, not mine. Although, you’d have to be blind not to notice that your mate is beautiful, both inside and outside,” he says, making Ranael settle.After saying goodbye to Kayce, Robin, and Miles, Ezra and I returned to my packhouse with Dr. Samuel.‘You know you’re going to have to share him, right?’ Miles asks in the Alpha link.I ch

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 42: Multiple Sightings

    EveI stare dazedly at Dante while my father and Luna June step into his office. He grins a crooked grin, making him look even more sexy than usual, before winking at me and turning to my father.“Ready to accept me as your Alpha, Edward?”“I’m sorry if we interrupted something,” my father says.I shake my head, trying to clear it.‘Tell our father to hurry. I want to kiss our mate again. He’s a good kisser,’ Eilie says, purring before I can stop her. I cut the sound off, but not quickly enough. Dante grins at me, leaning in to peck another kiss on my lips before turning to my father.“Eve was just surprised at the difference in me and this pack compared to Corey and his,” he says to my father as he gets a cup. I notice he’s not going to have my father lick his hand like I did.“There really is no comparison, is there, Luna Eve?” Luna June asks.“No, Luna, there isn’t. It’s … I don’t have words to describe what it is.”I watch as my father accepts Dante as his Alpha, then drinks his bl

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 41: Eve's Surprise

    EdwardI’m not sure how I feel about being asked to lead warrior training. Alpha Corey never let anyone other than him and Beta Roland run warrior training. Perhaps there is a reason for that. I hadn’t realized that their fighting style was so different than other packs' styles.Of course, all of that had flown out of my head when I saw June waiting for me. She had a soft smile on her face, and then she’d laughed. I’m not a eunuch and I’m not immune to the charms of a woman, but since the death of my mate nearly two decades ago, I just haven’t felt any interest in being with another woman. Until now.From the moment Quill called June our mate, it’s like my body suddenly remembered that I find women attractive. Or, more specifically, I find this woman attractive, extremely attractive, utterly and amazingly attractive.“You’re staring again,” she says softly.“I can’t help it. You are utterly breathtaking when you laugh,” I say, not caring if I sound ridiculous.Thankfully, June isn’t th

  • The One He Saved   Chapter 14: Wanting More

    MargotHow is it possible that a woman who never had a sex drive, or at least hasn’t had one in years, is suddenly feeling almost desperate for Ezra to touch me?‘Because he’s the kind of mate we should have had from the beginning and he knows what to do with that fantastic cock of his,’ Reyna says.

    EzraI’m already shaking my head before she’s done. “Margot, I don’t want the only place that we have sex to be at the place where that man mistreated you. I know you’re struggling …” I begin, but she reaches up, cupping my cheek.“It’s not that, Ezra. No one has ever done something so kind for me,

    EzraI stayed close to Margot during the packhouse tour. Well, as close as I could get with five Lunas and her mother surrounding her. The relief on her face when she saw that horrible space gone meant everything to me. That’s all I wanted, to take away what that asshole of a mate did to her. To let

    MargotToday was more difficult than I expected. I kept tabs on my mother, watching as she struggled through the day and then the tour. She puts on a good face, but I know she’s struggling.I checked in with her often, as did Ezra, but I also noticed that the Lunas checked in with her frequently, an
