Rebecca’s POV Hearing that Gloria blames me hurts. I know DJ wanted me, and I thought I was honest and firm in my wanting my fated mate or in my case mates. Did I lead him on? Did I give him hope in some way? Flashback “Hello, Beautiful,” DJ is leaning against my locker, as I try to change my books. “Hey, DJ. Can I get to my locker?” He slides over. “So, can I take you to a movie on Saturday?” “DJ, I don’t date, I’m not going to date. I am waiting for my fated mate. The only one I want is my fated mate. He gets my first kiss, my first intimate moments, and yes, my first date.” “Come on, as friends, you and me; go the cinema, eat junk, drink soda, laugh. Maybe we have a good time, and you see you can date. It’s not cheating if you haven’t met your mate yet.” “It’s cheating to me. Like I have told you a million times. Please stop asking, or I’m telling my dad. The answer is NO.” I walk away leaving him standing at the lockers. End of Flashback I can’t have given him a
Rebecca’s POV I wake up, Ike is still asleep. I go to the bathroom, and I look a total mess! My hair is all over the place, my makeup looks like a dumpster fire, and did he leave hickeys on me? Yes, lots and lots. I shake my head and laugh. They will be healed by lunch, but still. I go to our room, so I can get ready for my day with Virginia. I find Sam asleep, alone in our bed. I fix my face and hair a little, then crawl beside him. He smiles in his sleep and pulls me close. “Hum, I love you, Rebecca,” Sam kisses my lips, softly and tenderly. “I love you too, baby,” I say, claiming his lips and pressing against him. “Am I really your only one?” “Yes, baby, forever,” Sam pulls me underneath him. I’m already naked. “Forever is a long time.” I pull away and look him in the eye. “It’s not long enough for me,” he smiles and pokes between my legs. I’m wet and ready. I’ve missed him. I open my legs and nod at him. “Thank the goddess!” He thrusts inside me with one swift movement. H
Samson’s POV When Dad, Ike and I show up at Virginia’s door, her mate answers. “I’ll fight before I let you execute her,” he said. “Pipe down pip squeak, my baby is merciful,” I say, pushing him out of our way. “Where is the accused?” “I’m here,” there was a time I thought her voice was music, her body heaven, now her voice is nails on a chalkboard and her body is passable but does nothing for me. “You hit my mate, with a frying pan?” I ask her. “Yes,” she looks at the ground. “You attacked your pregnant future Luna?” Isaac asks. “I didn’t know she is pregnant,” she looked very scared, good. “You are no longer the highest-ranking female among your generation, do you understand?” Dad asks. “Yes Alpha.” “Luna Rebecca decided not to kill you or banish you,” I say, reading relief on her and her mate's faces. “Not to say I won’t kill you anyway. You got nothing but, respect when you found your mate. My brother and I even keep secrets for you. Why did you come looking for a fig
Rebecca’s POV Luca Lopez-Wallace and Emmett Wallace-Lopez are the new Alphas of Sliver Creek. In the middle of the ceremony, Claire gets a text that Sara is in labor. She and Liam are leaving Monday for the Human Realm and Southern Crescent. Hopefully, Shay will go into labor while they are there. Claire is super excited to meet her first granddaughter and see what color her eyes will be. No one saw my bruises, the make-up did a perfect job. Sam and Ike were sly in helping me hide my pregnancy. It’s too early to announce. But, one announcement Liam did make when we arrived back was that Beta Virginia has been stripped of her title and her replacement is Malcom and Nancy. Sam still wanted to snap her neck for hurting me. I think part of him feels guilty for bringing her into our lives the way he did. We get home Sunday afternoon and I want a bath and a nap. The boys have to work with Nic, Malcom, and their dad, since Liam will be away for a while. Claire spent the drive home
Samson’s POV My parents aren’t gone two hours and Malcom gets a mindlink from Nancy that a threat has been sent to my Luna. I orb home to find Rebecca and my sisters are already in the panic room. Augusta, an amazing tracker, is already in wolf form and searching the house. Linda, my third best female warrior, is patrolling the house and surrounding areas. Nancy is standing next to the box that triggered all this. “I know the scent on this box, it’s Gloria. Former Beta Female at Green Creek.” Nancy said, in full on Beta Mode. “Luna and the wolfless Princesses who were here are in the safe room.” “I got the pack moving to safe rooms,” Isaac informs us. We both look in the box. It’s a doll, that looks remarkably like Rebecca burned, cover in ash, with a note. You took my son, my title, my family. You will never be Luna. “You are sure the scent is Gloria?” Malcom asks his mate. “She is my father’s sister; I woul
Isaac’s POV “If that Beta of yours was worth a shit, I wouldn’t have poisoned her clothes,” Gloria finally confesses. Uncle Cullen has been working them over with his skills for the past hour. “Explain,” Sam said, using his Alpha Tone. “When Rebecca rejected DJ, I contacted Virginia,” Gloria is trying to hold back, but Cullen is standing close to her mate. Very, very close to her mate. “I told her I knew how to fix it so you two would be rejected and never find another mate. She didn’t want you, but she didn't want another female to take over either.” I look at Sam and we are both confused. “You hired Virginia to kill our Luna, so no one would outrank Virginia?” I ask. Even Cullen looks confused. “Virginia refused to kill her. No matter what I paid. I had to settle for beaten,” Gloria looked disgusted. “How hard is it to kill a pregnant girl?” Sam and I look at each other shocked, “how did you know?” “David h
Samson’s POV “Baby, Patty, where are you two?” I call, unlocking our door. The house is dark and quiet. “Hello? Anyone home?” I start to search the house. I don’t even smell them. I start turning on lights, as I go from room to room. I have been to all the rooms on the first floor, when I start to panic a little. My mate and baby sister are missing. “Rebecca,” I yell, as I start running from room to room. As I open Rebecca’s closet, I am hit with silly string to my face. “What the?” “Gotcha,” I hear Rebecca and Patty say, in unison. They both start to run. I try to get the silly string out of my eyes, as they run and lock themselves in Patty’s room. Which I orb into. “Don’t run from a wolf who can orb,” I say, grabbing them both. I kiss Rebecca’s lips and the top of Patty’s head. “We got you!” Patty squealed. “We were actually aiming for Ike, I thought you went to Silver Creek,” Rebecca pouts. “Yeah, Ike would be funnier than you.” Patty
Rebecca’s POV For the past two months I have been planning my Accession Ceremony, in my head. Because no one seems to care if we even have one. I know I should be happy, but honestly, it’s been the Sara and Shay show since I got here. First, they had their babies, then Shay started some shit, then they didn’t want to travel until the babies were older, then Shay had surgery. Claire and Liam have been gone so much everyone had forgotten they are actually still Alpha and Luna. I feel a little cheated, I mean, Cheryl got a Gamma Ceremony, when her mate claimed her. I had to sit through it. Nancy had her and Malcom’s Beta Ceremony. Jessica and Gina turn 18 tomorrow and I’ve been swapped planning the party with them. Hell, we had to sit through my brother’s damn Alpha Ceremony. I mean not to sound selfish, but I know it sounds selfish, I want my damn day already! Plus, the guys deserve their day too. Most packs hand over the Alpha position once the heir turns
