YOUR PEOPLE ARE OUR PEOPLE

STORM I still remember how nervous I was when I attended my first house party. The guys I was going to see in there are the ones by my side right now as we get in without even getting stopped.I can't help but smile as we get to walk in like we own the place.. the crowd parts way for us and I can swear they hush.Like a moth to a Flame by the Weeknd is blasting through the speakers. I love that song.“you came!”A girl squeals and I turn around to look where it is and I see it's Lana, the host.“of course, I can't miss a party now, can I?” I smile widely as she pulls me in for a hug and then links her arm to mine and starts to pull me away from the boys.“she stays with us,” Kyle stops her. they are not going to ruin my night. I don’t care that they might be against the idea of me going somewhere with Lana, but dammit it’s a great party and I want to mingle.“I will be fine, I promise,” I whisper to him as I touch his bicep but he doesn’t say a word.“We should meet your companions

DO YOU REMEMBER THIS?

STORM The sexual tension between Landon and me is intense. Ever since he came into my room as I was getting dressed for this party, catching me with nothing but knickers, and helping me get dressed, it's been … charged. I am listening to Cole talk to me bout the new developments they did today and how they had to kill the old betas who were loyal to the council but I drift off when I catch Landon looking at me from across the room. “Are you with me?” “yes, I am with you,” I respond distractedly. “no, you are looking at Landon like you want to fuck him in the middle of this room,” he says and I snap my head to Cole. “What?” I squirm, my cheeks turning red. “I have noticed how you two have been stealing glances when you think the other isn’t looking,” he smiles wickedly. “It's nothing,” I look away blushing. “yeah,” he chuckles as he drinks and I lay my face on his chest. I love doing this, especially when he warps his warm around me, I feel protected and hidden. Cole leaves t

OUR QUEEN

STORMA noise wakes me up.I detangle from the limbs and arms holding me as I groggily stumble out of bed. The boys groan when I slip away but they don’t wake up.I don’t know what it is, but I go downstairs as the chatter grows louder and louder. It is coming from outside.It's 7 am on a Saturday, which means we all slept in after the party yesterday.I open the door to be met with a crowd of unfamiliar faces, all in my driveway.What the fuck?When they hear me, they all turn to look at me and they … smile. And then start to clap and cheer on.I have never been confused as I am now ever in my life. I step outside, confused, as I look at all of them. They part a path for me as I walk slowly in the crowd and they cheer on clapping and seeming happy. I can't help but smile as well even though I barely know what's going on.And then a figure emerges from the crowd.Magdalene.“I told them not to come to you but they wanted to see the queen, who saved them,” she pulls me in for a hug and

I THOUGHT I FOUND THE ROAD TO SOMEWHERE

STORM “hey Dad, I can't believe this is all happening. I am doing things and meeting people I never thought I could in a million years could. I met some of our pack members who have been hiding and some are even telling me they knew you.” I can feel tears rolling down my cheeks but I swipe them away. “it's beautiful and scary at the same time. I have always dreamt of this but now it is here, I don’t know if I can do it. I am afraid I will ruin it all as I have done in the past, I destroy beautiful things. “I have the boys with me by my side, and they all love me and tell me they are with me every step f the way.” I sniff as my hand automatically goes to my belly. I close my eyes as I feel tears flood again. “I have a secret I have not told them because I don’t know if it is true. I am so scared and afraid that they will leave me when I tell them this. I don't know if I can do this by myself and if I even want to do this at all.” My body rocks as I sob silently on the hard ground

CAN'T LET YOU IN

STORM Pack meetings, talking, and getting to know my people have been the highlights of my days I feel like a different person. Here I am, talking about finding ways to bring some of the members to Ridgewood and put their roots here as we restore the homes that were destroyed. I feel grown and most of all, I feel responsible. Magdaline, as she insists I call her, has been with me all this time. The boys have bought a home that is so grand I thought I was dreaming when they first took me there. “It's all yours, and if you will have us, we would love to live with you,” Cole had told e as I stood in front of the gates. The mansion is secluded, tall trees hide most of it from the outside eye and the black gates opened as I took step in. Some vines were up tangling with the trees some extended close to the balconies. Glass walls and high walls, it is my dream house. When I got to see the whole of it, I realized just how huge the place is. The back extends to a man-made forest that l

NOTHING BUT MY ACHING SOUL

LANDONThis meeting sucks.I thought coming back home I would be having the time of my life, cozying up with the love of my life, and having sort of an endless summer being free and a senior but this has been so rigid and serious I want to rage out.I have not enough time with her, and I feel like I want to be close to her more than ever, probably because of all the pack business robbing me of any time but it's stronger than that.I want to be with her in bed all day, making love to her and holding her to me.That’s why the betas we chose, the ones that I liked a few days ago are grating on my nerves. It's like I want to overturn this table and bitt a few heads and go home.I shake my head as I think about that and wonder what is wrong with me. I am always chill, my energy seems to flare up and then go down nowadays it's weird.Right now, it's up and I don't realize I am gritting my teeth, fangs are stretched and claws are digging my palms until Cole looks at me with an annoyed look o

I'M ON THE RUN WITH, YOU MY SWEET LOVE

STORMThe first thing when I open my eyes is if my baby is okay.I don’t know where I am and how long I have been knocked off but my head is in pain. I am on a cold floor, the room has a small window high on the wall, with rails to prevent anything from getting in or out. I wince when I move, the pain in my head biting.I touch my forehead and my fingertips coat with blood. Probably from when that bitch knocked me off with her boots.I wrap my arm around my stomach as I stand up, feeling a little dizzy but I steady myself. Seeing a metallic door by the end of the room, I try it only to find it locked.I wasn’t expecting to be so lucky but I had to try.“fuck!”This is what I get for trying to make a goddamn friend? And where the fuck are they anyway?“Hey! I am awake you assholes come and get me!” I bang on the door as hard as I can and the actions grow more aggressive.I want to tear the door open but it's not carving under my strength. I kick and scratch and push but it doesn't budg

THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO BE THREATENING ME AND MINE

STORMsee, I am realizing I should have probably told the fathers of my child that I am expecting, but no. I didn’t, I had to keep it to myself.I straighten my shoulders as I lock eyes with Duke on the other side of the door.He is unpredictable, he is cunning, and a fucking creep. He just threatened the very thing I have come to love and be fiercely protective of in the last two hours than I have ever been to anything or anyone in my whole life.The keys he is holding are so close to the keyhole. He just needs to slide it in and twist it, and I will be free.“wait,” he pauses, looking away. “I don’t know if you will keep your word.”“you have all the power here, Duke, you are the one leading me here, and if you want me to keep my word, you have to keep yours first. And let me out, you will take me to them and they will let her go,” I talk to him like one would to a person who holds their freedom in their hands and they are crazy.“don’t try anything stupid,” he warns me, that glint

NEW PACK MEMBERS

STORMI have never felt so determined to make someone feel pain like I just did before.And just as I am holding the head, giddy even to show it to Lana, I hear the front door being kicked in and someone gets in.My boys get in. They are here.“storm?” Kyle shouts and I run towards him, as I clutch to the hairs of my head in my hand.“Kyle!” I am feeling so emotional that I don’t even have to think twice before I am jumping onto him, wrapping my legs around his waist, the head rolling down on the floor.And then a scream tears through the whole house.It's Lana and she is screaming bloody murder. I recognize that scream, it's full of pain and shock. It is justified, she just saw her lover's head, without the body.I stand up and Dean scoops me in his arms as well, Landon walks over to Lana to shut her up and Cole is kissing my forehead, checking if I am okay.“you are bleeding,” his mouth is intense and he is bloody. They are all bloody. looks like I am not the only one who has been s

I CAN'T RUN OUT OF THIS ONE

LANDONOur girl is pregnant.“it's four, I haven’t gotten this accurate before,” Magdaline says after confirming what we thought.Storm is lying on the bed looking at the ceiling, not meeting anyone’s eyes. “you are okay,” I whisper to her but she just shakes her head.“she sint hurt and the fetus’ looks healthy for three weeks. It's going to be a heavy ad rapid one, wolves carry differently than humans, so I would start by telling you to take it easy as early as now.”“she is going to, we are going to make sure of it,” Dean assures Magdaline as he rubs Storm’s forehead.“what do we need to make this go smoothly?” Cole asks Magdaline.“This isn’t a car, I am here and I can hear you,” Storm snaps and I bite back a smile.A normal storm is temperamental on a good day, but now that she is going to be juiced up, she will bite our heads off, and I can't wait for it. she killed a grown beta for saying the wrong thing, I know that her mama bear traits she is already showing are only going to
