JOSH POV

I check my appearance in the hotel’s floor length mirror one last time. I just had a haircut in preparation for tonight’s date… hopeful date, anyway. I have it styled short on the sides and back with a little longer on top. Several of the guys on the team say it is a soft, modified version of a high and tight and I can’t disagree. I don’t like my hair long. Never have. It makes my helmet sit weird if it’s too long. That’s a distraction on the field that I don’t need. So, I’ve set a haircut schedule to every three weeks and that seems to be the perfect interval to keep it manageable.

I dressed in all black for tonight. Not that I dislike colors on myself. Hell, I even own a pink button down and I know I rock the shit outa that shirt! But all black elevates the semi-casual clothing I picked. The black, long-sleeved button down is open at the top four buttons, showing off just a bit of my tanned chest. It is tight across my biceps and pecs, accentuating my

What exactly do you think Josh sees? I hope everyone is doing okay and you're enjoying Maddie and Josh's book so far. My brain is getting back to normal and my thoughts are finally settling back onto writing. I'm hoping to increase my update schedule to 3-4x/wk. Please leave a review, comment or gem if you're enjoying my book. Thank you for reading!

  • The War of the Royals: The Alpha's Rose Conclusion   The War of the Royals - Chapter 65

    MADDIE POV I close the door to my suite and have to pause for a moment. Calming down after that intense moment with Josh is incredibly hard to do. Infinity is pushing me to forgo our meeting; to go back inside and finish ravishing our mate. But the pack comes first, dammit! Hopefully though, this will ensure I can spend more time with Josh, and we can finally complete our mating, even if Fin and I don’t get to mark him. When I walk into my office, Daddy, Uncle Thomas and Uncle Adam are waiting for me. Both Thomas and Adam have a knowing smirk on their faces while Daddy just beams with pride at me. “Thank you for coming.” I address them as I sit behind my desk. “I’m not sure how to ask, so I’m just gonna say it. Would you all be willing to stay and handle my CEO responsibilities while Josh and I get to know each other? You’ll still have Greta, Maddox and Bruno, of course, so I’m not asking you to run the pack. They can handle most everything, but if a

  • The War of the Royals: The Alpha's Rose Conclusion   The War of the Royals - Chapter 64

    JOSH POV Then there are the pictures of Maddie doing warrior training, studying, wearing protective gear while using tools and machinery, playing with her little siblings, sitting with Tyson at a large desk looking over paperwork, holding an older Nolan’s hands while sitting in Lotus position in meditation, Maddie walking through what I recognize as this very packhouse, tall and proud while speaking to a younger Bette. There are so many pictures depicting Maddie’s life as she grows. Rose continues to talk while my eyes drink in the images before me. “My male pups all have nurturing, protective, or healing powers. Very powerful, but passive, I guess some would call them. In a sense. “My female pups are the ones you need to worry about. Theirs are all aggressive, offensively powerful, and dangerous. Their powers were the ones we had to actively work on controlling. They tend to lose control when they’re angry.” I turn another page and see a

  • The War of the Royals: The Alpha's Rose Conclusion   The War of the Royals - Chapter 63

    JOSH POV “Kent had the idea that any pup born from me and another alpha would be a powerful alpha heir. Which in turn would, essentially, free these alphas from taking a mate they didn’t want and at the same time, give them and their pack a future heir.” “I have no idea if Kent would have been correct about his assumption of any pups I birthed to other alphas who weren’t Tyson would have been super powerful. His theory was never tested, thank the Goddess.” Rose’s expression changes from relaxed into one of sly devilishness. I’m not sure what she is remembering, but she doesn’t explain it. “Tyson rescued me before anything more traumatic could happen. Plus another Alpha couldn’t have gotten me pregnant, I was already pregnant with Nolan. The first of our royal children.” Ah… so Nolan is Maddie’s brother. She never explained that earlier. Well, I guess I distracted her with kissing before she could explain… no regrets on my end. Maddie is a terrific ki

    JOSH POV I scramble to get my shirt on as Maddie leaves my room and I see Rose standing there, just outside the door. Rose gives me a mischievous wink and walks away, but I hear her yell down the hallway. “I’ll meet you in the living room, Joshua.” I guess I’m meeting Rose in the living room. I walk out of my room once I get my clothing righted, down the hallway and into the living room. Rose is sitting on the sectional, a blanket draped across her lap and there are several items sitting on the coffee table in front of her. She pats the couch cushion next to her when she sees me, “Come, sit with me Josh.” I make my way over to her and sit down next to her, like she asked me. Unlike several others here in the pack, I’m completely at ease with Rose. It’s probably because she is human. I don’t even mind her teasing me about Maddie. “You know, things aren’t always like this in the packs. Sure, there’s daily warrior training and pack patrols.

  • The War of the Royals: The Alpha's Rose Conclusion   The War of the Royals - Chapter 61

    MADDIE POV I see Oli limping again when they get up to leave and he’s making a pained face, so I link over to Mrs. Taylor. *He looks like he’s in pain. Can you carry him the rest of the way? And make him an appointment to have his prosthetic adjusted?* *Yes. Of course, Alpha.* I see her pick Oli up and they leave the packhouse. “You’re terrific with him.” Josh says to me as we begin ascending the stairs to my quarters. Mama and Daddy right behind us, Mama being carried in Daddy’s beheamuth arms. “But I think I have some incredibly cute competition to win your affections.” “Yeah, he’s that way with Greta’s oldest daughter too. I wish he was that way with Mrs. Taylor, but he’s not. And he hasn’t bonded with any of the families we’ve tried out for him. But don’t worry Josh, you get all my affections.” I tell him with a wink. “What happened to him?” “Rogues. About a year ago. It was the first of many attacks this year.

  • The War of the Royals: The Alpha's Rose Conclusion   The War of the Royals - Chapter 60

    MADDIE POV “Back hundreds of years ago, it was common practice to mate publicly. Over the years, it took a backseat to mating in private and most of us are thankful for that now. However, there are still some who are into exhibitionism, like Maddox and Oscar. I’ve walked in on them countless times. Still, smelling arousal is quite common for wolves. Granted no one has ever smelled mine until today. Surprisingly, I’m not embarrassed by it... well, not much, anyway.” “I’ll try to curb my PDA then,” he begins to tell me, so I stop and turn to him again. “No Josh. I’m okay with it. Please don’t stop showing affection or modify your behavior because you think it’ll embarrass me. Unless it embarrasses you. Being turned on by your mate is normal and expected. I’m not embarrassed. I promise. Actually, it would be more concerning if you didn’t turn me on.” I tell him with sincerity. Josh leans down to whisper into my ear, “So, when will I be able
