Tyler’s POVI finally reached home and sat in the driveway for a minute. I stared up at the farm style house with awe and smiled. This career has landed me with so many amazing things that I never would have even to begin to dream of. If I could get the detective position I would have everything. I finished day dreaming and walked in the side door of my house and went and got changed. On my way out I grabbed a few things to eat and some water bottles and headed back to my squad car. As I was leaving I looked back at my dream house and memorized every detail. I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach that I couldn’t put my finger on. I made my way through town as the sun started to set. I saw a group of people around my age wobbling out of a bar and laughed. I was too much for this town and I always knew it. My parents had always pushed me to be the best that I could be and it really paid off. The better I was at things though, the less friends I had. I could count my friends on one han
Alpha Dalton’s POV“Knox! Seriously? You just scared her so bad she knocked herself out!” my wolf was way too much sometimes. I shifted quickly and pulled on my sweats I had tied around my ankle. Knox whined in my head, “I’m sorry! I got a little excited and when she went for the radio I didn’t know what to do. I thought she was gonna give us away and all I wanted was to smell her. Goddess, she smells so good.” I rolled my eyes as I hurried over to her and knelt down. I frantically checked to see if she was still breathing. She let out a sigh but remained unconscious. The relief that rushed over me almost brought me to my knees. “Next time, let me handle it. I wanted to watch her for the night not knock her the hell out.” Knox retreated into the back of my mind with one last whimper. I looked down at the woman and repeated her last name as I read her name tag, “LaFlamme. LaFlamme? That sounds so familiar.” I was mentally scratching my head as I stared at her beautiful face when Nick an
Tyler’s POV Those red eyes. They were like two blood moons staring me down, but I couldn’t help but feel like I wanted to keep staring. I needed to keep staring. I needed to know the soul in those eyes. As I dreamt of those harsh crimson eyes I could here voices all around me. “She’s gonna freak the fuck out!” Said a man with clear anxiousness in his voice. “Shut up, Connelly! She is waking up. Stand back and let me handle it.” There was another male voice, but this one sounded like heaven. The smell in the room was different. Something smelled familiar and absolutely amazing, like a fresh spring and pine. My eyes fluttered open and it took a few seconds for things around me to come into focus. I noticed the large vaulted ceiling where a beautiful red ruby chandelier was hanging from a wooden beam right in the middle of the ceiling. I scanned all around the room until I landed on a pair of the most beautiful turquoise blue eyes I had ever seen. “Pardon the intrusion, ma’am…” the man
Tyler’s POVYou know, growing up in the south you hear a lot of crazy shit, but this takes the cake. I stared at Connelly’s giant canine teeth and cringed, “You are joking, right?” They all three exchanged glances and Dalton cleared his throat, “No, we aren’t jokin’, unfortunately. I am the wolf you saw in the woods. You are on my pack territory.” He leaned back in his seat and pressed his palms to his knees. He was nervous, I could feel it. He thought I was going to run away. I should be running away like my damn hair was on fire, but I couldn’t. I kept feeling myself being called to him. I don’t know what this all meant, but I was going to continue to ask questions. I was nosey by nature which is probably one of the main reasons I pursued this career field. Look where it landed me, in a straight up shit show. I shook my head at the thought and I started giggling out loud. The three men looked at me like I was growing a second head because I was obviously losing my sanity over this w
Alpha Dalton’s POVI watched her walk away and I felt like I had been stabbed right in the chest. What if she runs from this town? What if she doesn’t want this life? I don’t know if she is my mate, but I do know I felt a connection with her that I have never felt with anyone before. She was absolutely amazing in every single way. She had a smart mouth, a body that looks like she could take on a tank, and a mind that I wanted to explore. “She’ll be back, brother. She can’t stay out there knowing what she knows now.” Nicklaus clapped his hand on my shoulder and turned to walk away but before he did I let out a shaky sigh, “What if she runs and never looks back? I should have never told her what I was. Not until I knew she was mine.” He turned back around and smiled, “She won’t run, Dalton. Give it some time. She is probably all sorts of fucked up after what she saw and what she sat there and listened to.” He turned on his heel and walked up the stairs and disappeared into the hallway.
Alpha Dalton’s POVHoly shit. She text me. I sat straight up and stared at the text message until my eyes started to water from not blinking. I have to play this cool but not too cool. I don’t want her to think I’m a dick, but I also don’t want her to think I’m a creep. I quickly typed and read what I wanted to send. I immediately back spaced. I sounded like a stage five clinger. I typed again and as I read out loud what I said I realized something that had completely went over my head. I didn’t have her gun. When I picked her up off the ground I didn’t hear anything fall out and I remember her being frantic about where her gun was. I wonder if she dropped it when she was at the scene. She had to have because I definitely don’t have it. I mind-linked both Connelly and Nick, “Did you guys happen to pick up Tyler’s gun or anything?” I waited about two minutes before I closed the link. I assume both of them are passed out right about now. I should be sleeping too, but now my mind was sear
Tyler’s POV It was going into the night and I still hadn’t heard a word back from Dalton about my gun. He had to have found it by now if it was there. I’m not going to worry about it too much, but I just think it’s odd that it would go missing when I fell asleep in some creepy ass woods. My mind is still completely blown from what I was told. Werewolves and Vampires exist. What else is out there? Fucking unicorns? I would have to ask Dalton about that because if unicorns are real then at this point I’m just living in a fucked up reality. I decided earlier that I would google some stuff about werewolves and how they came to be, but all I came across was a bunch of fanfic stuff and no real answers. My mind kept flitting back to Dalton and all I could think about was how I felt like I had known him forever. I felt like my soul knew his and that really had me reeling. He made me feel things that I have never felt before just by looking at him and that, in itself, was weir
Tyler’s POV“Wait! Y’all need to stop. Emery put down the damn gun!” I am standing between Emery and Dalton with each of my arms extended out towards them like they wouldn’t go through me to get to each other. It’s dumb, but if it keeps them from killing each other then I am willing to sacrifice myself. “Emery? This is the name you kept saying the other night when I-,” Dalton stopped and looked down at me, “is he your boyfriend?” I put my hands down and stepped back from him, “Hell no!” Emery and I said in unison. Dalton straightened up and looked at Emery with his eyebrow arched, “Then why is he here?” Emery chuckled and lifted his shirt to holster his gun, “She is my partner at work and we are also like brother and sister. That is disgusting for you to even ask.” Emery faked gagged and looked at me. Of course he would be doing that in a completely serious moment. I sighed and scrubbed my hand over my face and looked at Dalton, “Dalton, He’s my best friend. My brother. Not
