Semua Bab Conflicted: Bab 31 - Bab 40

GUNNAR POVI feel sick to my stomach. Wave after wave of female desire is being blasted in my direction, and all I want to do is hold my mate. I hate that my love is surrounded by horny she-wolves who have set their sights on me. I already had to remind two of them of their place. One of them being the she-wolf who tried to get in Vanessa's head before withdrawing from the competition. The other being Frida.She had had the audacity to come to Vanessa, and I's den unannounced. After almost killing her, she realized I was not interested in what she was offering. Her scent literally made me gag. She has an overly floral scent that makes my head hurt. I guess she was aware that Vanessa wasn't staying with me last night and had made one last desperate attempt at seduction. My hand wrapped around her windpipe, and her body being thrown ten feet, had been her answer.My eyes have not left Vanessa's, and hers's haven't left mine. Although I plan to take drastic me

GUNNAR POVAs soon as Vanessa's fear hits my system, rage fills my blood stream. Our bond is complete and the feeling is amazing, but knowing that my mate is scared..........it makes me beyond murderous. No one should threaten my mate on my own lands. She should feel the safest within our territory.My werewolf form is vibrating with bloodlust and my men can feel it. Two of my sparing partners flank my sides and they growl lowly. Their wordless communication is clear, they have my back.We run for about three miles before stopping. I shift back so I can deal with the Reverence Pack's dumb Alpha. This man has truly forgotten who I am. Maybe the world has. Since Vanessa came into my life I have been rather on the softer side. Time to bring back the Alpha that could roar and make other Alphas wet themselves.He shifts into his human form with a dumb smile on his face and his men follow suit. I take in the older Alpha and internally grin. He is a mi

GUNNAR POVMy claws dig through my brother's arm before he can dodge me completely and another flash from the past flashes behind my eyes.Flashback:Nine year old Kraven runs towards me with a wide smile as I approach the pack house. I roll my eyes. How freaking annoying. I can't even get in the door from training before the runt is on me."Gunnar, how was training," Kraven practically squeals as he bounces to my side."Just dandy," I growl as I go over the lecture dad pounded into my head while he pounded my 17yr old frame into the ground."I wish Dad would let me join," Kraven says in his annoying little kid voice.He has no idea the pressures I'm under. He thinks this is all fun and games. Training isn't fun. Training is brutal. It is meant to break you so you can be rebuilt into the soldier the pack needs you to be. Momma's boy Kraven will never be a soldier. Not like me."Why? So you can whine the whole time? Leave m

HILDA POVI watch the small flame dance in between my fingers for as long as possible before flicking the match towards Kraven's deceased form. Tears stream down my face as the fire begins to grow. The last time I stood alone during a challenge burn, my mate was the body on top of the woodpile."I'm sorry, baby brother. I'm sorry for being a weak little girl who couldn't stand up to her daddy. I'm sorry for pushing you away when I was angry. I'm sorry for not defending you when our brother put you down. But those are the only things I am sorry for. Your death was your own brother. Your crimes were your own. Silver Tail will prosper without you, and for that......I celebrate your death......Rest easy, baby brother," I whisper as I turn away from the large blaze.I wipe my tears and push the grief down deep. I need to focus. I need to set a plan in motion before the Return to the Pack ceremony begins. The King has betrayed his people. Eliminated thousands! I

GUNNAR POVI knock on my old office door, and Hilda growls from the other side. I laugh as I push open the door. This is going to be a fun new relationship."I didn't want to disturb you, Alpha," I state with a grin, and my sister shoots me a glare."Is there a reason why you are disturbing me while I am trying to catch up on YOUR old paperwork," Hilda asks while rolling her eyes?"Well, Alpha Malcolm and Alpha Arne just crossed the border. They will be at the packhouse soon. Where do you want to hold the meeting," I ask while avoiding her statement about paperwork?I definitely won't miss that part of being Alpha. To be honest, I won't miss any parts of being Alpha, sitting in an office, worrying about each pack member—planning or budgeting events. I was terrible at it all. Now I get to deliver information, and all the final decisions rest on Hilda's shoulders. Not to mention all the free time I can spend with Vanessa."Here in the office.
