Alle Kapitel von Pain Before Bliss: Kapitel 51 – Kapitel 60

After they made it to the main floor, they piled in and grabbed dinner. As wolves, their metabolism ran higher than a human’s so the consumption of calories had to outweigh the amount being exerted. It was pasta night in the packhouse, so different pastas of different varieties were being served, alongside vegetables, salad, bread, fruit and water, juice or wine. At Golden Crescent they didn’t overdo it with the alcohol. Wolves had a higher tolerance for alcohol, which meant that it took a lot for them to get drunk, but that didn’t mean they would overdo it. After eating, the packhouse was boisterous with the tv blaring with sports, the game room filled with playful banter and the pool just outside the packhouse filled with wolves. They all knew the fun wouldn’t last, so they soaked up as much as they could. Denice chose this moment to go speak with Gregory about a few things that were bothering her. She knew he was in the Alpha’s office settling additional preparations for the war.

After getting her bearings, she faced her opponents.“Tatum, Jake. Let us commence.” She stated.She regained her composure and her focus and placed it on Tatum, the Delta, and Jake. Avery took over.“Alpha, are you ready?” Avery’s voice echoed through the space.“Ready.” She answered.“Tatum, Jake, are you ready?” He asked.“Ready Young Prince.” They answered in unison.“Begin!” He stated.Denice knew that these two wouldn’t hold back. After many times of her and Jake sparring, she told him to stop looking at her as his mate, and more as his Alpha. He had to learn not to hold back for anyone. If there was a traitor and he had to end their life, then that’s what needed to be done. He couldn’t hold back; there was no room for hesitation.She started sparring 2 on 1 because that’s how it is. Wolves didn’t attack fairly and she damn sure wasn’t going to hold her breath when it came to Blood Moon. Alphas were always the target of an attack, so she prepared herself in every way possible fo

After making sure that all of their pack members were accounted for and were seen at the Pack hospital for a once over, all of the warriors and the Royal bloodline were in the war room for a debriefing. The war room was designed for delicate matters, such as attacks on the pack, the pending war with Blood Moon, and other issues that may come along. The war room was 6,000 square feet and there were multiple tables placed inside. In the front of the room was a projector, if needed. To the right was a fridge for drinks, to the left was a tactical unit and to the back of the room were two big wooden doors. The room was red with golden trimmings all around and the tables were made of marble. The ceiling was painted with different mosaics and the light came from the wall. The lights were mounted in the walls, so as not to take away from the mosaics on the ceiling. “Jameson, please begin.” Gregory commanded. “Yes, Alpha.” He turned his attention to the rest of the room and began. “We were

After Denice’s promise to Gregory, she walked away and made her way back on the platform. “Anyone else dare to challenge me?!” She threatened. “We don’t have time to waste and wait around. We converge on Blood Moon tomorrow, and we will get the job done. You answer to me and me alone. Am I understood?” Denice boomed. “Yes, Your Majesty.” They replied in unison and bowed their heads. Jake walked over to her and assessed her body. “Are you okay?” “Fine. Get him to the infirmary. He won’t be walking a while.” She commanded, anger dripping in her every word. She walked away and Avery and Anna had worried looks on their faces. They walked behind her and Gabriel and Riley walked behind them alongside Tatum, Liam, Justin, and Kailo (Kai). After making their way to the Alpha suite, Denice went to her room and took a long, hot shower. Her rage was still bubbling below the surface and at this rate, she wouldn’t get any sleep. After her shower, she stepped out, changed, and made her way to

Hello everyone! A couple of things: We are officially at the end of the flashback, so now you guys know what happened with Blood Moon. The following chapter will conclude the end of the flashback and will resume afterwards. It may be 2 separate chapters to break it off, but I'm unsure yet. Also, I will continue to fill you guys in on the blood left on Denice's hands and the lengths she's had to go to protect her siblings, her pack, and the Royal Bloodline. Her relationships have been rocky and she will accept a mate and the matebond in the chapters to come. My recommendation would be to go back to chapter 46 to recall what happened, or really, where we "paused" the story so you're not confused when we continue there. Garrett and Derreck will be showing up more in the chapters to come as well. I did neglect them for a while, but for a good reason to the storyline moving forward. We will also be focusing on Derreck's little brother and the story will follow him for a while also. Deni
