Hi readers! Don't forget to comment. This is the first book I've ever written and I would love to hear what you think of the story and the characters. Thank you so much for reading! ☺️
Aiden's POV Entering our room after that stressful event, I still feel somewhat in a daze, as I look down at myself and see I'm covered in blood. I look at Thaddeus and he looks worse than me. He's covered in blood, and bits and pieces of only Goddess knows what. I walk toward Thaddeus and kneel, so I can look him over and make sure he's okay. With just a pair of basketball shorts on, I'm able to see most of his body. I rub my hands over his torso, wiping the blood and junk away so I can see his skin. I can see most of the wounds are healed, or healing. I continue to run my hands along his body, pushing blood away to make sure he's okay. It's kind of hard to tell what's his, and what's not. I was so focused, I didn't see his hands reaching for mine until they wrapped around my hands and stopped me. "Hey, I'm okay." I look at Thaddeus and let out a breath, then smile at him, giving his hand a squeeze as I stand. "Let's take a shower," I said, and Thaddeus cocks an eyebrow at me.
Thaddeus POV Flashback They are everywhere! There's so many rogues, and they keep coming, crossing over the river, and into our territory. Alpha Michael's not left out of this fight since his territory is about a hundred feet to the right, on the other side of the river. They didn't go deep into his territory. They stayed near the edge for the most part, except for a few stragglers. So they are fighting the rogues off as well. There's hundreds of them, and they just keep coming. I'm currently surrounded by rogues. I can't tell how many, there are at least 10. This normally would have been a problem, but since remarking Aiden, Zeus is a beast now! I mean we're good, but not that good. He's taller, broader, and more muscular. The way he moves while fighting, he's stronger and faster and just plows through the groups of rogues. He moves with precise movements, and precision strikes. Every hit, or bite, he lands, and it's deadly. It seems like they're all flocking to me, which I
Aiden's POV I'm pretty sure I'm wearing the floor out! I'm currently pacing between the dining room and the living room in our apartment. Thaddeus is in the shower getting ready for dinner and the bonfire, and I am a nervous wreck. Hence the fact I haven't been able to sit still. I've been nervously pacing back and forth, knowing I need to talk to Thaddeus, but dreading it. I'm a nervous wreck. My stomach is in knots, and just the thought of telling Thaddeus makes me want to vomit. I'm terrified of how he's going to react. I'm pretty sure he's going to be angry, and that thought alone is terrifying, and makes my stomach churn even more. I've known for 3 days that I need to tell him, but I'm just not ready to tell him yet. But Mitchell said that if I don't tell Thaddeus, he's going to do it. I don't know why he's forcing me to tell him. I mean I get it, but, why can't he just give me a little bit more time? Doesn't he know I'm not ready yet? I know it's my fault, and I shouldn't
Thaddeus POV I can't believe I'm going to be a father! I'm so incredibly happy! All my dreams and everything I've always wished for is coming true. I can't wait to see my beautiful mate round with my pup. I can't wait to take care of him while he's pregnant and feel our baby moving inside him. As I sit here thinking of Aiden being pregnant, another thought dawns on me… This means Aiden was pregnant when that bastard took him. That means my mate was pregnant when he was raped and tortured. That bastard practically tore the skin off of my beautiful mate's back, while my pup was inside him. He forced himself on my mate while my pup was inside him. He put that toxic wolfsbane in my mate, and risked our child's life! Knowing this makes me want to slowly kill him. It makes me want to tear him apart, piece by piece until there's nothing left! And the first thing I want to tear off of his body is his dick, then shove it down his throat and make him choke on it! This only fuels my desire t
Noah's POV "Ow, you shit!" I yelled, trying to pry Marcus's arms from around my neck as he held me and roughly dug his knuckles into my head, messing up my awesome hair! That shit took me forever to perfect this morning! A whopping 30 seconds! Before I could get free on my own, Marcus suddenly shoved me out of the way as a blur flew past, and tackled him to the ground, and then began punching him repeatedly in the face. I was initially shocked, but then I became furious and was ready to jump in. But the wind suddenly shifted, and I smelled something I hoped I never would. I froze in place, my feet felt as though they were glued to the ground. I smelled the scent, and my wolf pressed forward, before I heard the idiot begin yapping the same word over and over in my head... "MATE!" Everything else that followed, happened so fast. I'm honestly not even sure I was able to breathe as I watched Zeus fly past, and plow into this person that was attacking Marcus. I looked at this perso
Aiden's POV I took a seat on an empty log near the fire, trying to wrap my head around the events that just happened. I went from being amused, watching Xander taunt and joke around with Marcus. Loving Xander's funny personality, and how easy it is for Xander to rile Marcus up. Realizing how perfect Xander is for my sister, they're so much alike. Both silly pranksters. Then I was jealous of this new person who seemed to be so comfortable with Thaddeus. Then becoming even more jealous of the way they hugged each other. The jealousy only intensified, as I watched Thaddeus press his face into this new person's neck, and take a deep breath of his scent. Then I was confused when Noah said Thaddeus was his father... ? His father? Did he have a child with someone else and he never told me? But how? I wondered before feeling relieved that Thaddeus didn't actually have a child with someone else. Hearing Thaddeus rescued him, made me feel bad for whatever circumstances Noah was in, and pr
Michaels POV After I saw Thaddeus come back without Noah, I was disappointed. I tried to keep my mind off of Noah as I chatted with Thaddeus, Marcus, and Xander. But it was useless, I couldn't stop thinking about him, and neither could my wolf. My wolf kept urging me, wanting me to go find him. I finally gave in and decided to sneak away and see if I could find him. Even though I know Thaddeus told me to give him time, I just needed to see him, I needed to talk to him. I walked into the pack house and followed his scent to the third floor. His scent led me halfway down the hall to a door on the right. I stood there for a few moments, trying to collect myself. I listened, to see if I could hear Noah, but all I could hear was the tv. I knew he was in there because his scent coming from the other side of the door was very strong. I raised my hand and knocked twice and then waited. After a few moments of no response, and not hearing any movement, I knocked again. Unfortunately, I
Noah's POV "You will not keep disrespecting me!" He yelled. I don't know how I knew, but I knew he was going to do it before he even did. And then I felt it, I felt the weight of his Alpha command slamming down on me. Forcing me into submission as I bared my neck to him unwillingly. I haven't had anyone use the Alpha command on me like this since I was 11. Thaddeus rescued me when I was 11. He only used the command on me once, and it was to help me through my first shift. He barely used it, just enough to get me to listen to him because I was fighting the shift. Aside from that one time, he's never used the command on me again, and definitely never out of anger. No other Alpha has until now. The memories come crashing down. My body trembled as tears poured down my face. The broken little boy comes flooding back in an instant. I remember being so little and so young as the Alpha command held me still on his bed so he could rape me. I can hear his voice, I can smell his disgusti
