* Isabella *I was baffled when Richard made a slow movement of his blond lashes. It gave me hope that he was at least conscious and he would be alright after treatment from the pack doctor which he badly needed from now. But we are so far away from home. "Richard?!"My hands made a tight grip on his shoulders and I shook him up. The fight between Alpha Charles is still going behind us, my senses are both aware and alert about the current situation that we are in. It was a slight relief that none of the enemies made it through and passed from his grasp. I wanted to help him but I knew that my cousin's life was hanging on a thread and I needed to make sure that he is alright."Isabella."His rough words barely came out of his lips but I was glad that he was at least awake. "No, don't talk I know you are hurt badly and it would be difficult. I'm glad you are awake now, how are you feeling? Can you get up to sit? It is chaotic right now and Alpha Charles needs my help."He slowly moved w
* Isabella *"Isabella! Where are you going?"The angry question of the voice in my mind link made my feet automatically glued to the ground. Alpha Charles is growling and he knows that I am walking farther away from him, but I could hear him being occupied with fighting the wolves in the background."I must see my people, this is my chance now. Please cover my back and don't let them follow us, I am with Richard and the warrior who surrendered and is leading the way."Alpha Charles howled even louder and the wolves of the South whined and some of them expressed their surrender. Following the death of their Alpha and now only their Luna and the rest of the warriors are fighting with Alpha Charles. They might thought that working together would give them a chance to defeat him but they were wrong."Don't trust that wolf!"Alpha Charles was mad and I could hear his heartbeat and felt his urge to follow where I was going. "Beta Lohan and the warriors of the North are already at the gates
*Alpha Charles *My heart was beating loudly against my chest and it almost had me choked out in anger when I came exactly to the place where I saw Isabella bloody and her life hanging by a thread against two wolves that bit her. It was a mistake not following her directly when she left I waited for the warriors of the North to arrive, and when I heard her desperate cry I almost flew towards the scent of her blood in the air. "Isabella!"I shouted with the loudest voice I could ever let out and the two wolves froze and then I didn't wait another second for them to move. The first wolf who bit her neck, I placed my two hands against his mouth and pulled them wide open not even letting him cry out in pain when his head split into two from her upper and lower jaw. I was infuriated and then I looked down on the other wolf who was attacking her right leg.He stepped back and the blood was still dripping from his mouth, Isabella fell to the ground her wolf form slowly transforming into a hu
* Alpha Charles *The sun had already been hiding above the clouds when I arrived back at the borders that were separating the South. My feet sped up the engine when I saw the tall gates where a few of the warriors from the North were now on guard. They quickly opened the gates when they saw my car approaching, and I slowed down just enough to hear their greetings."Good evening Alpha Charles! Welcome back to the South."I nodded and drove inside the gates, I would have asked if the Alpha King was already there but I felt his presence already together with my father and the rest of the warriors around from the Alpha King's Palace. There are a lot of vehicles in the parking, however, not all of them belong to the guests. Most of them are cars for Alpha Tyler but now he and most of his followers are gone.As I get down from the driver's seat Beta Lohan approaches me. "Welcome back Alpha!""How was everything when I left?"He looked at me and nodded after a long sigh. "There was a lot of
* Isabella *I slowly opened my eyes towards the familiar surroundings and the comfort of the mattress behind my back with the smell of fresh roses on the bedside table reminded me of the few things that were beautiful in the Cold Mountain pack Alpha house. The big and pleasant room filled my heart with warmth and comfort. Then I remembered everything from the last moment that I was awake. "Richard?"My voice in the mind link reached the ears of my cousin, I felt his strong heartbeat but he was still unconscious and hurt. I somehow felt a slight relief, the last thing I remembered was looking at him dying and losing a lot of blood. I am so glad that he is safe! Alpha Charles came to our rescue on time! I got up from bed realizing that I had already healed. The mirror on the big dresser showed the smooth skin on my neck arms and legs when I pulled up the midi silk dress that I was wearing. I am completely healed from head to toe!It feels amazing to be one of the wolves, even when I ha
* Alpha Charles *For a male wolf, morning arousal is normal, and having her right in front of me is just like torture. I was not able to stop myself from touching her soft skin and taking her lips against mine. She should know better than getting inside the room that I occupied. She had probably smelled my desire and lust through the air yet she stood still and did not push me when I grabbed her arm. I could not remember the last time I had her warmth, I was so busy with pack duties and she was angry with me. I am not sure if she is still mad about the issue of turning her into one of us."Damn you for coming here Isabella, you know that I have been celibate for a while and I won't be able to stop myself if you are here in my arms like this."I murmured through her ears while holding her tiny waist and keeping her on top of me above the bed. She lets out a soft moan when my lips touch her neck and I let my tongue have a taste of her skin and give her gentle love bites down to her thr
* Isabella *I opened my eyes and felt the warmth of his arms around me. There is no hatred or anger in my heart towards him anymore, now I understand his actions entirely. From the beginning, he wanted to protect me, and his intentions were pure. It made a huge difference now that I become one of them. I could tell just by his simple gesture the real feeling he had inside his body. Even with just a flutter of his dark lashes or the beating of his heart against mine. He is a wolf who only protects his mate, and I am confident that his mate is me.His nakedness felt a little familiar as I looked at him flawlessly and his God-like features. If all Alphas are like him then there is no wonder why the wolves go crazy over him. He let out a sound of taking a deep breath and then exhaling it to wake up after a few seconds. His gaze was direct upon me as he opened his beautiful eyes."Good morning sweetheart! Or more like good afternoon."On his eyes radiate the glowing sun from outside the w
*Isabella*"Oh, They are so lovely Bernard! Thank you."I smiled widely at the beautiful fresh red roses wrapped neatly in a printed thick wrapping paper. The bouquet I did not expect to receive today since we had no plan on celebrating my twenty-third birthday. However, Bernard had a surprise appearance early in the morning. The smile on his lips warmed my heart. I bet that he came here first before going to his work."Happy birthday my dear Isabella."He lowered his head to give me a peck on the cheek which I accepted gladly. I turned around to find an empty antique flower vase sitting above the long wooden table in the living room. Then I carefully place the flowers inside, removing the wrapper and folding them before throwing them quickly at the nearest bin."Thank you, Bernard! You are the first person to greet me today."I walk gracefully towards him, aware of his eyes looking at the very tight black denim that I wore with a matching tank top in the same color. The obvious admir
