Chapter 54 AlecWhen my brother had called me to the conference room I was surprised at what I had witnessed. I had yet to be privy to the combined meeting. Most of the time that the meetings occurred I was hosting classes or caring for my son. So stepping into this fierce dynamic was interesting to say the least. While Levi handled his mate I sat back by the door and watched everyone and interacted. Then Levi turned to me. “Do you remember hearing a story about the lycan Alpha trying to find a cure. While attempting to find a cure for his disgrace, he stumbled on the perfect formula to create the ultimate weapon.” He had asked me. It was no secret that I was a scholar. Both Levi and I had taken to the books rather than the bag. We could still fight, there was no question about that but we were more known for our undeniable wealth of knowledge. So when he brought up the feebles of King Lycaon of Arcadia I was confused. “Vaguely. Wait, is it the story of King Lycao
Chapter 55 AlecWalking into the conference room I am lasted with the smell of campfire burning leafs and sage. Standing at the front of the room was a beautiful woman with ebony skin. Her tall body stood strong and confident at the front of the room beside a larger than life beast. I could tell by looking at him and the similarities in our features that this man was my Uncle, Adrik. Yet, she stood tall beside him like she was his in some way or another. Before I even had the time to gather my wolf up and suppress him he had me rushing to her side and ripping her away from my uncle and laying down a vicious growl to defend my claim.“MINE!!!” I growled out at my uncle, causing him to chuckle.“Savenia, I do believe that my nephew here just claimed you as his. Maybe you want to inform him that we are not an item. That we are only associates.” He said looking past me to my mate. Turning around I looked into the most amazing eyes of a yellow, green hazel mixed. Her fac
Chapter 56 Savenia Waking up in my new apartment, I looked around and recentered myself. The night before I had struggled with sleep like I have for a long time now. Every night I relive my childhood. Every comment ever made towards me. Every hit, smack, kick, push, shove, jab, punch. Every night I experience some part of the horrors I had lived through. Some nights the nightmares were worse as instead of me leaving, I was forced to stay. Most of those nightmares would end with someone killing me in the most gruesome way possible. Last night the stress of the move, the stress of the change and being in charge of the faction had led to a new form of nightmares. Last night it was my father that had found me on the streets that night. Instead of me being able to defend myself against the gang rape, I was tied down and my magic was surpressed. My father was instructing the members of the Faction on ways to rape and torture me. My mother too was present and laughing
Chapter 57 Savenia After grabbing a quick black coffee, I made my way listening to the chatter in the halls to find my way up the stairs to the large conference room. Standing at the front of the room was Adrik, waiting for the rest of the members to come in. I walked up beside him not yet sure of the seating arrangements here. Yet it appeared that there was no method to how or where everyone sat. “So, what is it that we are waiting on exactly?” Adrik leaned over to whisper to me. “The rest of the council, or advisory team? I don’t know exactly what we should really call ourselves.” Gabi replied. “See you have me supposedly the closest descendant to the mother Goddess and so kind of queen royal. There is, my lovely mate here, Sam. He is the next Alpha of the Blue Rose pack.” She said, placing her hand on her mate's chest lovingly. “Then there is my family. We are all trained hand to hand and have superior fighting skills. My father is the owner of t
Chapter 58 Savenia I began to start smiling at the amazing smell. I loved the smell. Whenever I had the chance or opportunity I would go to a library, bookstore or sometimes even just a second hand store to smell the books or to see what new used and old books that they had. I had always wanted to create my own library but with the constant moving of the faction I didn’t have the ability to tote around boxes or bags of books. Nor did I quite have the time. I was always watching several children. When the parents were sent off to complete an investigation or mission they would leave any children with the faction. That part would fall on those that ran the schools or daycare. We were the primary secondary caregivers, there were others that would provide care for the children even if the parents were not available. So when the smell of old and used books entered the room I was almost too scared to look up from the table where I had been starting to look towar
Chapter 59 AntonyComing down for the meeting I was excited. I had been asked to investigate several packs around the area and one in particular had stood out. Their finances alone had almost quadrupled. The size of their pack had even increased substantially. I was nervous about much of the information that I had picked up. I had completed much of the security set up and was looking forward to getting out into the world and finding my own mate. I was extremely anxious about finding my mate. I felt that this was my time. I wasn’t upset that each of my siblings seemed to stumble upon their mates, even the ones that weren’t even looking or would even want to look for their mate. I was upset that I too hadn’t found my somebody to love. I had been looking since the time that Marcus and I went out to a bar and found his mate. Hanging around Markus and Mari had me wishing and hoping that my mate would be next. But then came Alec and Amber. And Gabi. Gabi finding her mate had to be the last
Chapter 60 Roman Returning back to the pack I was shaking my head. Ronnie had coated ourselves from head to toe in mud. I looked like a damn loch ness monster than a damn man. I chose to stay in my wolf form until I got closer to the building. Once I neared the backdoor, I walked into the building and rounded the corner and went to the first room off the left where until our beautiful mate Lucy came to Levi's room, turned Levi and my room. Walking in I went straight into our very small galley kitchen to grab myself a washcloth to remove some of the mudd from my face. I assumed that with the meeting still taking place that everyone would still be up there. I had blocked out my mind link. Alpha command could override that during an emergency, but I knew that Sam would give me the peace and quiet that I needed to calm myself. Walking into the living room to go to the ensuite bathroom I felt like I was being watched. Turning around I tried to see through the mud still caked to my
Chapter 61 Gabi Our meeting had officially imploded. Alec, while completely happy for and celebrating that he had got a second chance at being happy, he was more wrapped up in his new mate than he was in sitting in this room and conducting business. I couldn’t blame him much as meeting Sam had taught me the mate bond was for sure a powerful bond. Antony was pissed off to all kingdoms. Again, rightfully so. He has watched everyone in his life find their mate and leave to make a new life for themselves. In some cases even a second mate. I couldn’t be certain but my father had been getting extremely close to Amethyst. Their closeness suggested something more was happening between the two. I was not going to speculate, but I was happy that he had found someone to make him happy. But could see that it had upsetted Antony. The twins, goddess. They were like smitten little puppies. They would follow Remmie and Reign around like shadows but the
