Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Forty-Four
Cleo’s POV“I’m sorry I think I heard you wrong. I thought I heard you say, ‘I kissed Lucille’ but I couldn’t have heard that because I know my mate wouldn’t do that to me.” Roman’s eyes refused to meet my own only confirming my bastard father correct. “Get out. I can’t look at you right now.” Turning away from him I laid painfully on my side. I had never wanted to meet him originally and in this second, I hated myself for giving into the mate bond to begin with.“You have to understand that you had been gone for weeks…”“Oh well that’s ok then.” Turning back to face him I could feel my face heating from the anger rising within me.“I don’t mean it like that Cleo. You were in the underworld for weeks and I had no clues whatsoever as to whether you were dead or alive. I needed you back and Lucille had a way of getting me to you. Yes, there was a price to pay, and yes, I kissed her but not because I wanted to. I did it because it was the only way she would open the portal. When I got th
Fated To Roman: The Almighty Alpha Forty-Five
Romans POVLeaving Cleo at the hospital I raced back to the pack house. The moment Cleo said her name I felt sick. How could none of us have noticed. We had all spent time with her, so I felt embarrassed to not have even suspected her. My wolf had always been able to spot evil a mile away. She had fooled us all. And to make matters worse my mother asked my fathers to give her a chance and how did she repay her? Orchestrating her death.Several speed cameras flashed as I made my way through the centre of town but right now, I couldn’t care less. It was late so it’s not like kids would be running around and if I hit an adult they should have looked. Pulling up I took a deep breath knowing what I was about to do would hurt someone I loved. Someone that deserved the best of the best and not to be used or manipulated by some sadistic evil bitch.As I threw the door open, I could hear the sounds of giggling followed by the high-pitched squeal of my nephews. Something which instantly drew my
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

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
