Any movements on your end?Axel's POV When I had to leave Raven I felt a pang in my heart as I watched her scurry off to where Ayla was standing with our son. Unable to go to him, to stay with her, as I sent them off to be safe in the best way I knew how.Rushing out with Jason and David, we all took off, shifting mid air as we ran through the pack lands to the borders, each of us taking a separate one as Isaac already headed to the East. Retired or not now, he is still someone I count on heavily to help protect this pack.I hadn't shifted, in what felt like ages, Lucian claiming control as he took off running while keeping our pack link open for anyone to get a hold of us if needed.The wind whipping through our fur, the coolness of the air passing through to our body as we ran hard in this form. His legs extended with every step he took, the sense of freedom surrounding us as we came to a stop by the guards tower to the South where the main rogues had been spotted.Lucian pushed to
His hand went limp in mine as his eyes fluttered backAxel's POV Continued When I woke up it was dark outside. Deciding to go out to check things out I chose to shift. Being as dark as we are, without light you can't see Lucian when shifted at all, especially with our onyx colored eyes.Walking out the cold breeze hit my face making me take a deep breath before Lucian pushed forward as I removed my basketball shorts, he shifted slowly as his bones felt cold.Feeling each snap of our bones breaking before they realigned to form his enormous size. My face elongated as he howled deep inside our mind so he wouldn't alert anyone to our position.Padding our paws down, digging our claws into the cold earth around us we stretched out our body before shaking our fur out. The breeze whipped by us as it ruffled through the thick long midnight black fur in a soothing nature.I felt our neck stretch up as he inhaled all the scents that were surrounding us when one caught his attention drawing hi
Her scent surrounding me as I inhaled deeply.Axel's POV Continued It's been two days, two days of watching Timothy recuperate while staying out here away from my family while these damn rogues keep appearing in different areas at different times of the day, no pattern to it at all but definitely keeping us guessing and on our toes.I contacted the hunters society, calling a sort of truce, one that has been there for decades, so long as we keep our end and not attack human villages.Being in this decade, we work well with others, manage to stay off the radar of hunters besides the occasional rogue that may attack someone jogging through the woods they happen to be in, of course we even try to keep that maintained by hunting down a rogue that has killed someone.Basically we do everything in house when possible and the hunters have left us alone for a long time. They mainly go after vampires or witches that take qualms in hurting humans without a second thought. We on the other hand,
I hate you being away from me, my AlphaRaven's POV From the moment I caught his scent I was overwhelmed with so many emotions but this, this pure intimacy was everything I have been craving and so much more.We didn't need to have sex, or make love, I just needed to be held in his arms, to feel his presence surrounding my body.Taking advantage of his scent, it being fresh and intoxicating compared to his pile of clothes, dirty or clean, that now sat in the corner of my bedroom where I would curl myself into it at night after everyone else fell asleep.I held him tightly, my fingers digging into his flesh as he continued to kiss me deeply, my head tilted to the side allowing him better access as he started trailing the kisses down my chin to my neck, his tongue sliding over my mark sending shivers up my spine at the feel of it.I looked down at where his fingers were, gently moving over the edge of my panty line, watching the goosebumps raise up on my skin as my bottom lip pulled be
The metallic copper scent of blood filling my sensesAxel's POV When I got back to the lookout, Timothy was pacing outside when he spotted me coming up in wolf form. When I got up to him he held out a pair of shorts and a shirt to me as I shifted back.I pulled the shorts on before I started pulling the shirt over my head when he spoke. His tone held a hint of worry before I looked up at him to see his expression holding so much more."Axel, I'm glad your back, how is your Luna holding up?""She will be better when this is all done. But enough with the pleasantries, what's wrong Timothy?"He ran his hand down his face while sighing deeply."They found the cave, they killed a good thirty rogues but no one else was there, they found traces of the others, including the hunters. However, they were attempting to track their whereabouts.""Were attempting?"I felt heart beat spike suddenly when the tiny hairs on the back of my neck stood up as I looked at him before hearing a howl making
I apologize for my anger, but you have to understand.Axel's POV Continued Speaking with the hunters as they maintained their footing, no stepping onto my packs territory, when they asked about Victor."I'm covered in him, he killed the Alpha from the pack we combined with then tried to kill me along with my Beta, so we ripped him a part."I know I could have phrased it differently considering he may even have been a friend before he, himself went rogue in a way as well. Thinking back to the way the rogues reacting to his scream of pain when I first sank my teeth through his soft, bitter tasting flesh, I began to see things I hadn't truly noticed as it was all happening.The way they all completely stopped what they were doing, mid fight, mid bite even, as their eyes snapped right to us before they left the positions they were in. They started rushing in our direction, ad if they were attempting to protect him from me, to keep him safe.How can they be connected to a hunter in such a
Through the block, I felt the loss, the tether snappingRaven's POV I may have had my wall up so I wouldn't feel the pain behind the deaths of our people, but when I was watching the cameras, I could clearly see my Uncle.Seeing him on the ground, it was dark but thanks to my insane eyesight because of Luana I could see him better.He was alone, looked to be in such pain as I saw the darkness surrounding him letting me know it had to be his blood pouring from his body.I had seen it, the man stepping out from the shadows behind him, a glint of metal shining through the moonlight when I saw his back arch before he turned to kill a rogue on his left side.He dropped then crawled to the side, my mind racing as I witnessed it all unfold when I saw Lucian gliding through the fighting as he made his way to Uncle David. Relief filling me briefly when I saw him nudge at him with his snout before he suddenly shifted, gripping my Uncle instantly before he fell to the side.My heart began to th
Let's get you in your bed my little prince charmingRaven's POV Continued After everyone left to head back to their own spaces, honestly the suite felt a bit lonely and quiet as I walked through the living room where our blankets all still sat around from where we had been huddled together sleeping the last few nights together.I know I hated having so many people here, due to too many scents mixing causing jealousy to ripple through me at Axel's scent being mixed with other women, damn pregnancy hormones, but now the thought of not having the place full of people depresses me a bit.Ayla walked out to find me standing in the living room trying to bend over to clean up when she rushed over to me telling me to stop."Don't do that! I will get all of this, you don't need to be doing anything but sitting down, resting your feet and your back, I know the chairs and cots in the safe room didn't help your back. Hael is in his room, ready for bed and waiting for a story. I will clean this al
