41. Testing Bonds

DaleThey had driven directly to the River Bend pack in the two SUV’s and inspected the rooms. Apparently their entourage drew a lot of attention from the River Bend pack members since gossip had spread about the first rogue female Alpha from Sundown Delta. It seemed to be quite interesting to the wolves.Despite the interest in them, they managed to make good time on the inspections and Gemma’s attention to detail became even more obvious. Fifteen rooms were ready for inhabitants and Alpha Gregory seemed like a pup with his excitement. He insisted that they stay for lunch when he heard of everything that still had to happen.Granted, they would have liked to have some time between welcoming the new members of their pack and the tournament, but the work had only been done recently and the transfer had been agreed to earlier this week. He did hope that their lives would calm down at some point, because this measure of wor

42. Bad Brunch

GemmaDale continued his tradition of carrying her downstairs so she could get a few more moments of sleep. She was grateful because she was still exhausted. She did feel a little better about their relationship after he followed her kidnappers to bring her home; maybe he did care just a little bit.The Council of Supernaturals was livid when they heard that Elder Crawford had sent an army to kidnap her – well, most of them Arcus was still his emotionless self. They had sent their warriors to capture him and incarcerate him with his friends, Elder Heath and Elder Daniels.She had to be honest; it didn’t bode well when three out of five elders were corrupt. It made it difficult for her to trust the supernatural council when the only one she really trusted was Tamara; a little bit more after Dale told her that she had given them the scent neutralizers that had helped them to surround the wolves that had attempted to load them in

43. Welcoming Ball

DaleHe had been stuck to his Gemma’s side for most of the rest of the day, unable to convince himself or Duke to step even a few feet away from her after her kidnapping the previous day and the disastrous brunch. He should have gone with her like he had wanted, but he had also taken over some of her load to help her. He was stuck between keeping his promise and keeping her safe.But he finally had to let her go so she could get ready for the ball. He was nervous about bringing his unmarked mate in front of so many unmated males, but this was her choice and he could not be unsupportive when she had worked so hard to make this happen for the good of wolves despite everything they had done to her as a species.He had been given a tie by the vampire female that was arranging the tournament. It was the pack colors. So he dutifully tied it around his neck as soon as he was dressed in his wolf military formal suit. He would re

44. Meeting his Family

GemmaAfter the dance she had excused herself to go to the bathroom. She needed some time away from all the strange wolves. She was trying not to show how nervous she was among so many strange wolves, especially with their attention on her.But she had been kidnapped three times, turned against her will, used as a science project and threatened by a greedy alpha. Of course she’d known he was greedy, since she had come across a few of his sins when she had researched Elder Daniels before she was turned.All that had happened to her was bound to take some kind of toll on her. She was on guard all the time, and despite her thinking of hiding in the one cubicle to catch her breath quickly, she soon found that with everyone wanting to talk to her it was not a quick trip.Emily and Jessica had fallen into step with her; she guessed it was their way to support her, but it defied her moment to catch her breath. When they finall

45. Under a Magnifying Glass

DaleHe was more than happy to crawl into Gemma’s bed with her at the end of the night; they both needed the reassurance and rest they could only get from sleeping in each other’s arms. He had started coming to her bed every night; it seemed to help her guilt with going to his bed to get some rest and he wanted her to not feel guilty about their connection. He'd noticed that she would crawl into his arms in her sleep, which proved to him that she was slowly starting to trust him a little more. He was ready to move into a room with her, but she didn’t seem ready and he was sure once they’d marked she would allow it anyway.They had been under a magnifying glass from all attending wolves, despite Gemma making a good first impression, they were all curious about the human turned wolf, turned alpha. They were making history and having so much attention on them was tiring. And then his father who had disowned him

46. The Race

GemmaShe couldn’t help the rush of excitement as she spotted Dale without a shirt on the field. He wasn’t the only one without a shirt, it seemed most of the alphas preferred to stay in only shorts, but he was the only one that held her attention.It was ridiculous how much Daisy was drooling in her mind; she’d have to find a mind mop and make her clean up the mess. She was torn from her thoughts as Tamara sat down with her and elbowed her with amusement clear on her face when she winked at her.Gemma felt her face flush with embarrassment, before she took a handful of the trail mix and shoved it in her mouth. Jessica handed her another bottle of water and she mumbled a thanks through the mouthful.She’d noticed that some of her pack members had set up stalls and some teenagers were walking through the assembled crowd, offering snacks or drinks for sale and she smiled. At least the pack was making a decent

47. Alone Time

DaleHe had seen her expression of excitement as they came running into the arena, he still had some speed to give, but the sparkle in her wide eyes and the sheer tension in her stance was so adorable to see. She was cheering for him, even if she wasn’t doing it out loud.He pushed himself and easily passed Alpha Daniels; it certainly already proved why he had tried to avoid the competition altogether. The man’s lavish lifestyle had made him less of a challenge. Of course, as an alpha it would take some serious decadence to show in his physique, but once he had to match other alphas, it would count against him, like it had the other alphas they had left behind.Perhaps they should do this tournament annually to bring the pride back into being an alpha. He was pleasantly surprised to find Attorney Thompson was indeed a true alpha, since he had had to push himself to pass him. It showed that Attorney Thompson was still a t

48. Bonfire

GemmaShe wasn’t sure what to make of the new version of Dale Cleaver that she was seeing now, so she was extra shy as he led her down the stairs to join the bonfire.She stopped off to check in with Moira; the woman seemed unflustered by the amount of people that needed to be fed. She seemed to be on top of things and in her element; she understood why when they stepped outside.There were four males cooking burgers, steaks and hotdogs over the fire and four females building the burgers and hotdogs or cutting up the steaks and placing them in individual cheesy waffles cones and adding them to the already huge pile of food waiting for their guests buffet style.A dancefloor had been erected a little bit away from the patio and bonfires with seats surrounding them. Fairy lights lit the dancefloor and a DJ was already playing some background music.The entire scene was welcoming and she could already see the pack members collecting around the bonfires while the different packs started

49. Even the Odds

DaleHe was not the only one surprised when his Gemma released her alpha aura for the first time. No one had expected her to have managed it so soon and even less the immense power of it. He was both intimidated and aroused at the sheer power in her aura.On instinct alone he had massaged the back of her neck in an attempt to help her retract her intense alpha aura. But then she all but melted at his touch and her aura retracted almost instantly. At least he knew how to help her relax in future.As they followed her up the stairs to the office, he linked Jessica to bring refreshments and join them since he had a feeling this would be something else she would be adding to her list of things to do. Once inside, Charlie handed her two files and she sat down on the couch, ignoring everyone’s existence while she scanned through the information in the files.Dale indicated for everyone to sit and then found his seat next to h

50. Fix it

GemmaShe was rather excited for today’s challenge. They had agreed to intersperse the active tests with the intelligence tests. That way there would be enough movement to keep the wolves happy, but they still got to test the human parts.They had marked off the arena, so every age group could compete at the same time. They males and females were combined for this challenge, according to their ages and titles. And each challenge was unique to their titles and age groups.The toddlers had a puzzle to build as two separate teams. And the challenges got trickier with every step it took in age. The kids’ activities were up first, since their challenges were shorter and easier.They actually had a glib wolf announcing the challenges and giving running commentary to keep it from being boring to the spectators. The male had even gone farther by adding little riddles and jokes in between and the crowds assembl
