Ellinore’s POV
“Oh Shit! Flare, what are we doing here?” I ask my wolf. We were just heading to a tunnel to run for safety after hearing Elyse got the all clear to set off Bertha. I did not want to be in range of that thing at full blast. I had the pleasure of not believing Elyse when she designed the thing so she challenged me to be the test dummy. Not one to back down from a challenge and really not afraid of whatever she had in that shoebox sized container, I accepted.

“Grunt…Umph.” Is all I can say as Leah flips me onto my back with a superior smile on her face. I twist up to sweep her leg, but she jumps back out of my reach. I use the momentum to roll myself up to my fe

Love Conquers All Update!!!
Every 5-10 chapters , or so I am going back through and double checking my writing for continuity, grammar and any other errors. This is my first ever published work so it and myself are a work in progress. The more training that I do and the more I go back over my own work, the better I can make it. Feel free to leave constructive comments at the end of each chapter. If you feel more details are needed, or less for that matter I want to know. I have an outline of the general story, but as these characters grow some of them are starting to change and think differently than I had originally planned. This is a fun process, that I love learning about. Thank you for going on this journey with me!! Miss L

Leah’s POV“Checking comms.” I say to Jason. “I’m checking in every 5 minutes, text me if you don’t hear from me.”“Got it Boss” He replies and I growl. This in turn earns me a chuckle from him. “You dad and Elder John are with Luna Reis in the Blazing River Bunker, and they are kind of afraid of you right now.” Another chuckle. “They saw Bertha in action…” he trails off.“This is how I know you’ll be a good Beta, you only push my buttons enough to piss me off when you can follow up with good news. I should be to them in 20 minutes, have all the communicators check in with injury and loss statuses. I want all of our fallen ready for a burial fire tonight, we will celebrate their lives and their

Elyse’s POVWe are running through the tunnels to the Blazing River Pack bunker where Tammy’s grandma is helping with rescue and recovery.As we gain access through the bolted door with our bracelets, the sight that meets me is truly amazing. The bunker is huge, at least as big as the cold cellar we had to pass through to get from the Concordat pack house to the war room. It’s divided into several sections by shelving units and free standing storage cabinets. As we walk through the door we pass the area designated as the kitchen. It has 2 industrial size floor to ceiling ovens and 3 stove tops along the farthest wall where vent hoods can take the fumes up and out of the underground bunker. 4 double door refrigerators stand side by side perpendicular to the ovens creating a wall. Making a line down the center of th

Leah’s POV“What’s this about me mowing someone down?” I question calmly. Elyse made sure that I heard her rant to my dad. Clearly he’s saying something that’s got her feathers in a ruffle. She’s not normally one to verbally lash out to people. She saw me walk in and gave me a knowing look to keep quiet but listen in.My dad and elder turn towards me both turning white then a little bit green. Oh, yeah we definitely caught them hiding something. They have both been acting funny even before the attack started, now it’s time to make them squirm and tell the truth.“Hey Elyse, Tammy. Did you guys find what you were looking for? I ask them, almost ignoring my dad’s reaction

Leah’s’ POV“I’m sorry, did you say you had the means, but only needed guidance? How did you pay for all of this?” Elder John asks. The magnitude of realization showing all over his face.“Yes we have the means to handle any projects that we may want to pursue now or in the future. The neglect our leaders have shown us, we turned into a blessing instead of complaining about it like a curse. Any more information is o a need-to-know basis and neither of you need to know any more about what we have accomplished, strictly that we have accomplished it. Now back to the question at hand. What are you hiding from me?”They both look at each other warily. I am really tired of this chicken act. T

Damien’s POV“Alright Titan, at least I know you’re still in there, I just wish there was a way you could talk to me. I need to get out of here and warn Leah and the girls. This is so much bigger than I thought, I hope she’s ready for it.” I really hope that Titan can hear me. It does make me feel better thinking he’s in there.I hop off the bed and start pacing the room taking every detail, trying to find something useful. The dark hardwood floors contrast with the red walls. There are minimal decorations, like they expected me to try and use something. A dresser with nothing in it, a walk-in closet, again with nothing and a bathroom with just the basics. A large king sized bed sat in the middle of the room. The two windows flanking the bed start a few feet off the floor with padded

Damien’s POVI know it's early or, I guess, late if you can’t sleep. I have been wracking my brain to figure out what Max could possibly want me for other than being an alpha he can control. It doesn’t make any sense beyond that. I also keep thinking of Leah and the last time I saw her. It feels like forever ago, and Bronwyn’s words are not making the separation any better. I need her, I know Titan needs Nyx and we need things to stop getting in our way. I let out a sigh.The packhouse has had a steady beat of footsteps going up and down my hallway. So either I’m in a frequently used hallway or my guards are marching like sentinels back and forth in front of my door. Which means they are really bored and trying to stay awake or very extreme in their guard duties.

Damien’s POV“And do you remember who we saw while we were walking along the lake? The only person at the lake that night.”He sucks in a deep breath as his eyes go wide and I think he might jump me again. I brace myself for the onslaught of physical or verbal backlash at telling him this. “I don’t understand, you are Leah’s true mate? And you have known for four years? Why have you never pursued her, never said anything. You have watched me try, and let's be honest, fail, to court her.” He lets his thoughts trail off at that.“Because I was instructed not to. Our leaders may not think highly of the Moon Goddess and all of her plans, but one thing everyone has always said is you don’t mess with a fated true mate bond if you are lucky
