Caleb’s Point of View
I have been having Hannah take Daphne out, and finalize the preparations for the mating ceremony. I miss spending time with her, but it has been strategic having her away from home. Theo left two days ago with a strong lead on her sister, and I am hoping to avoid any questions from her about it. I will do anything to avoid her getting hurt, and if Theo finds her sister and she does not want to come then I know it would hurt Daphne.
On a positive note Marcus and Lola will be here tomorrow, and I am excited for their visit. I have also received confirmation that Alpha Jerome will be attending as well. I think that this group of friendly faces will bring Daphne joy. Hannah sends me a text letting me know that Daphne has found a dress and they are heading over to the catering company.
I was hoping that Theo would have been in contact by now, but I have not heard from
Daphne’s Point of ViewFinally, Hannah and I were done shopping, I was so excited to be home. I had a lot of fun with Hannah, but planning everything so quickly has been hectic, and truly all I want to do is sink into a hot bath and let my muscles relax. Hannah grabs the rest of the bags out of the trunk while I carefully retrieve my dress from the back seat. The sales lady made sure that it was in a solid white cover so that Caleb would not see it before I was ready for him to.“Thank you, Hannah, for shopping with me, and teaching me about the mating ceremony.” I hope she knows how much I appreciate her.“That is what family is for silly.” Hannah’s bouncy nature shines through in her words. She lets me know that she is going to take everything up to the room, and we walk in the house. I can tell right away that something is not right. There is a feeling
Caleb’s Point of ViewI snuggled with Daphne and felt her drift off in sleep. I know that she was stressed out. I felt bad for making her worry about her sister, but there was a lot of truth to her words. In a lot of ways, I do treat her like a child, not meaning to. I must learn to treat her as an equal. In the morning I know that I need to be honest with her. There are a lot of things I have kept from her, thinking that I was doing the right thing. I need to let her know about the peculiar talents that some of our pack members possess. I need to start showing her the different trades that we are involved with, the storage yards, the winter preparations, and the training schedules.I look down at my mate, I know that she is strong. I know that she went through traumatic events that have shaped her into the woman she is today. I just hope that she is strong enough to handle everything that is coming. I hope th
Daphne’s Point of ViewI cannot believe that my sister is coming here today. I am excited, nervous, and truthfully a little scared. I have not seen Scarlet in so long. I wonder how much she has changed. Scarlet is almost thirty years old; does she have kids?The thought of kids stops me dead in my tracks. Crap me and Caleb have not been using any protection. My hand floats down to my stomach, what if I get pregnant? Would Caleb be happy or upset? I look over at Caleb as he is putting on his shirt.“Caleb, we have not been using protection.” I feel dumb even uttering those words.“Yeah, so?” Caleb just shrugs at my statement as he sits down to put on his socks, and shoes. How can he be so casual about this?“Ok, um what if I get pregnant?” I can not believe that he is continuing to get dressed. Having
Caleb’s Point of ViewI want more than anything to be the white knight for my mate. I would love to tell her that I have all the answers to her problems. I would love to be able to magically wave my hands and make the world perfect for her. Unfortunately, I find myself questioning everything, not knowing what if anything I can do.The excitement of today has worn Daphne out, and she is sleeping in my arms. My mind will not shut down, sleep eludes me. I wonder if I could find out any more information on the previous Alpha’s death. I know that if I start a big investigation that it will draw attention and could potentially start a war. I also know that if the suspicions surrounding Dorian’s rise to power are correct, then he should be punished.I am also worried about the information that Daphne has revealed to me. Scarlet is his fated mate, knowing that he willingly breaks t
Daphne’s Point of ViewI am so excited; I get to spend today with my sister. I know that we had a little of a rocky start yesterday, but I attribute some of that to the fact that she was traveling all day. Caleb spoke with me this morning and he is going to have a guy’s day with Dorian, and Theo. This gives Scarlet and I time to go shopping, and Caleb even suggested taking her out for lunch. He is having one of his warriors drive us since I still have not learned to drive. I called Hannah and invited her to come with us, but she said that she had other plans for today.I throw on some black jeans, with a light blue tank top. I finish off my look with a black and white checkered long sleeve overshirt. I like the contrast of the flowy material and the tight jeans. I finish it all off with a cute pair of Vans that Hannah insisted that I buy. I throw on a little mascara and deem that I am ready to go. I boun
Caleb’s Point of ViewFor Daphne’s sake I am trying my hardest to get along with her sister and Dorian. I ensured that she has enough money to treat her sister to some shopping and a nice lunch. Theo and I discussed having a guy day with Dorian, neither of us wants to but we are curious about him. Daphne and Scarlet have already left for the day. I find Theo and we go in search of Dorian.We find Dorian in the kitchen harassing one of our Omega members.“All I want is some damn lunch.” Dorian is yelling at Annie, who looks terrified.“DORIAN” I used my commanding voice, knowing that he will pay attention. “No one here is a slave. My Omegas do not make me food unless they want to. Here we do things for ourselves. Annie I am sorry about the confusion this is Dorian, Daphne’s brother in law. I will handle it from here, you
Daphne’s Point of ViewWhen I first woke up, I was confused. I have gotten so used to Caleb having his arms around me that not having him here in bed with me is foreign. If I am honest, I do not like this feeling at all. Turning to where he should be in bed with me instead, I find a note.Daphne, I can not wait until later today when we are bound as one in front of our community, and friends. I know we had a difficult day yesterday and I am sorry. Words can not express how happy this day with you makes me. Per tradition I am not supposed to see you before the ceremony, so I snuck out, while you were still sleeping. I am having breakfast brought up to you. Hannah, and the other girls will be over later to help you with hair and makeup. I just want you to relax and enjoy today. I will be waiting with bated breath until you are in my arms. Love, Caleb. P.S. You are so adorable when you are sleeping.
Caleb’s Point of ViewLeaving Daphne this morning was so difficult. I woke up earlier than usual so that I could watch her sleep a few more moments. Today is the day that we will be formally committed to each other, in front of our friends, pack members, and community. I have waited so long for this day and I am so excited that it is here. I know that Daphne thinks that I saved her, but in reality, she saved me. It is because of her that the blackness inside me, the anger, the rage has finally subsided. I am more focused on my pack, on leading us, and protecting us. I will spend everyday that I can showing her how grateful I am to her.I decided that tonight will be the night I tell her how I feel. How much I love watching her sleep, hearing her voice, and feeling her touch. I will tell her how she saved me from being feral. I will tell her how much I get lost in her eyes, in the scent of her. How her laugh so
