Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Fofty-Six
Cleo’s POVOnce dressed the nurse helped me into a wheelchair and wheeled me through the hospital. My eyes kept darting to the faces of various nurses as they eyed us suspiciously. I was no fool and knew that if the nurse had been caught she’d likely be in big trouble for helping me leave without being discharged. Thankfully we made it to the transport bay without incident.The nurse flagged down a taxi and helped me inside. After thanking her for all her help I told the taxi driver where to take me. The whole journey was uncomfortable to say the least. Between glances from the driver and the pain I was in I just couldn’t sit still. I silently cursed myself for not accepting the pain relief earlier on.‘You don’t need that when you have me.’ Hearing Freya’s voice startled me. I knew she would be waking up but I hadn’t expected her to just yet. ‘He sure did a number on us, give me a couple of hours and you’ll be good as new.’ Closing my eyes, I nodded. ‘Cleo please tell me you haven’t
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Forty-Seven
Cleo’s POVAs we entered the dining hall we were instantly met with silence. Nobody other than Layla and her fathers were present.“Where is everyone?”“Told to stay clear for today. We have enough to deal with without overhearing ears causing more issues.”“You think someone within the pack would cause trouble, even with the council here?” It wasn’t that I didn’t believe what Layla had said, but from a glance they seemed like a tight knit pack.“Cleo things are never as they seem. News of the councils pending arrival will have likely stirred up memories in more than one pack member. Memories that took a lot to forget.” Axel didn’t even look at me as he spoke.“Because of what they did to Athena?”“You really are hell bent on making this more difficult aren’t you!” Slamming his fists on the table he pushed his plate of food away.“Dad enough! She’s asking because she doesn’t know. She didn’t intend to cause you any pain.” Romans grip on my hand grew tighter as he once again clashed wi
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Forty-Eight
Roman’s POV“We appreciate that he’s young and he’s inexperienced but that won’t change the outcome. He as Alpha had a duty to keep his entire pack safe and he failed.”“It’s the number one rule. Experienced and inexperienced alike, both should know that fact before accepting their roles.”“My son may not have been Alpha for long, but he never once put himself before the pack. Show me one person to complain about the way he ran things because I know you won’t find one. Hell, I’ll even help you look.”“Axel you’re not an Alpha anymore you have no standing here. Your presence is more of a courtesy.”“Like hell I don’t! My family were among the first to be created. I mean you no disrespect, but by that alone I have more right to stand up here and speak than any of you.”“You would bode well to hold your tongue. Speak out of term against the council again and you risk losing it!”“Dad…” seeing things beginning to heat up I knew if he carried on things would take a turn for the worse.“Wha
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Forty-Nine
Cleo’s POVAs I got back to my room I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, confirming that the invisibility had in fact worn off. Hearing voices from outside the door I ran into the bathroom quickly stripping myself of my clothes. Turning the shower on I quickly stepped in allowing the water to soak me. I didn’t need to shower, but it looked better after the lie Roman had told them. After all we were all in this together.“Cleo?”“See she’s missing, what more proof do we need?” Jumping out the shower I wrapped myself in a towel and exited the bathroom. Knowing who was there I acted surprised.“Erm… excuse me…”“Sorry miss we didn’t realise you would be so… in disposed. If you would just…”“I’m in my room, in my shower. How did you think you would find me? Fully clothed? Because I mean why wouldn’t I be showering with my clothes on!” Putting my acting skills to the test, I forced as much anger as I could fathom into my voice. I even went as far as to let my eyes water.“Gentlemen
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Fifty
Cleo’s POVWe had been in the library for over an hour and each one of their questions were beginning to grind on me. I understood they had a job to do but come on! Most of their questions were stupid and an ultimate waste of time. Questions such as where I was born, who raised me and when did I make myself rogue were all things, I’m certain they already knew.After all, once a pup is born, they are registered within the week just like humans. The only difference being unlike in the human world we have to note everything. Notes are made on hair and eye colour. The date and time we receive our wolf, the date we become mated and the date when you leave. So, for them to ask my mother’s maiden name made absolutely no sense.“Miss Barton, we are placing you under arrest pending further investigation.”“WHAT?” The pitch of my voice so much higher as that one sentence caught me off guard.“Anything more will be discussed at The Ballard. Until cleared you will remain in one of the holding cel
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Fifty-One
Cleo’s POV“It doesn’t look any different.” The moment I held the athame in my hand the smooth silver blade began to illuminate as it took on an orange glow.“You did it!”“Try not to sound too surprised will you Roman. I said I would combine it and that’s exactly what I’ve done. And from what I hear it’s just in the nick of time. The elders have got everyone looking for the both of you. Your fathers are outraged.”“They’ll get over it.”“Will they?”“I can feel it.” The power in the athame called to me like a siren of the sea called to the sailors. It was impossible to ignore as my own power latched on.“Cleo?” Roman placed his hands on my shoulders just as I closed my eyes. Feeling the tug of warmth within me I embraced it calling it forward. “FUCK!” Opening my eyes my jaw dropped. Remembering how I had once thrown fire at Axel using all my anger to form it, this was different. It felt natural, but this felt alluring and dangerous all at the same time. There were no doubts in my min
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Fifty-Two
Roman’s POVHaving snuck out the back of the shop before the door opened, I let out a deep breath. This was only one of the many hurdles I knew we would now face. I knew anything could go wrong but I also knew that Cleo and I would fight until our last breaths if that’s what it took to get our pup back. There was nothing we wouldn’t do.Together the three of us weaved through the crowd of jumpers and dancers, carefully navigating the streets. Which between the decorated floats and food stalls was incredibly hard to do. At this moment we were at us most vulnerable. Normally Balthazar would have been able to pick up on another wolf’s scent, but the smell of burgers, hotdogs and alcohol blended with the crowd’s perfume overwhelmed him immensely. The combination making him nauseous and uncomfortable.I’d hoped to spot Hades in the crowd our pup in his arms before they reached the church, but I couldn’t help thinking he’d had the same idea as us. Disguised themselves and our pup. A couple
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Fifty-Three
Cleo’s POVHaving reached the church, we were met with a welcoming committee. The rogues from before stood united in the street, ready to fight when called upon. Yet the bitch whose life I wanted to claim for myself stood right beside Alpha Sara.Lucille was not going to be making it out of this alive. I had long ago planned to rip her to such tiny shreds that nobody could ever resurrect her again. This I had decided when Roman told me of their kiss. Sure, I should hate him for it, but Lucille had used his weakness to her advantage. She had used his love for me, and I would show that bitch exactly how bad an idea that was.We knew we needed to get into the church; to do that, we knew we would have to fight our way in. There were at least twenty of them and only two of us. They had the numbers, but we had each other, and together we were strong.As Roman took my hand in his own, our eyes locked in understanding. No matter what happened, one of us had to survive. One of us had to get to
