Alpha Sams POV She adopted two pups. A boy and a girl. Why does that make me and Spear so damn happy? That she hadn't met her mate but had two pups of her own. Two pups who I have met. Jericho had impressed me with his fire and spirit. He would be a firecracker as he grew up. I still had this pit in my stomach at the thought of her staying with her sister's pack. Nighthaven was a good pack, run similar to my own. Henry was a good and fair Alpha and I trust him to take care of any of my pack members. But something about her being there sets me a little on edge. What if she falls in love with the pack? What if she never comes home? What if she needs the help of her sister now, she has the pups? ‘NO. SHE WILL COME HOME.’ Spear snarls at me and I keep trying to replay that into my head as I shuffle food around my plate. Apparently, not only do I now lose sleep, but my appetite has also taken a rain check. At this point, I may as well just hand over my title to my underage pup, because I
Serenity POV I sat to my father's right; his unit all sat in order of their rank to his left. My unit followed suit. Cara, Tera, and Myra, my aunts, all sat behind their mates against the wall. I would have preferred them stay at the table, but that is not my call it's my dad's. Alpha Henry had retaken his seat directly across from us as the head of the meeting, but since the arrival of Elder Gabriel, I could tell he wanted to forfeit the right to his superior. The elder sat in the seats vacated by the two Alpha’s who got kicked out during my father's interrogation for whatever reason, and Luca sat opposite looking bored. The room was uncomfortably quiet. The kind of quiet where you can hear every creak of a chair as people shift their weight. It was not intentional; we all just understood the gravity of the situation we were now in. Yesterday was the equivalent of a civil case in the human world. My dad personally requested a formal rejection. It was based on evidence but ruled by e
Alpha Henry POV Coming to this pack hadn't been a hard choice to make. My Luna, Harriet, or Harry as I call her, is a wonderful woman and has been close to Sequoia since she has taken her place in my pack. I always thought it weird that he had someone else taking over the responsibilities of the Luna, but it wasn’t my busy to pry into. As soon as the Elders asked for someone to come here to deal with a rejection and a possible criminal case, I rushed over and demanded the presence of the other Alphas as soon as possible. Sam is a good guy, a good Alpha, and I consider him a friend. I am not sure he sees me the same way as pack politics have always been something that is present between Alphas. You cannot risk the safety of your pack because you see another Alpha as a friend. I try to remind myself of that a lot but give his pack members a lot of special treatment other packs don’t get. I know he raises good, respectful wolves here. Seeing this footage for the second time in two day
Alpha Sam POV After Henry told me I could execute that bitch I felt myself and Spear relax a little. At least this part of my life could be behind me. I could tell Gabriel was not happy with the decision and they were all having a conversation about it at the end of the table. I would have doubts too, but they had no idea how I felt. No idea that I had another mate out there I had been hurting for over twenty years thanks to my blindness and foolishness. This she-wolf hurt my pup, my fated mate and my pack members... all to satisfy her own greed and need for status and power. It makes me sick to my stomach to even think about it. How could I not see it. Ren places her hand on my shoulder, and I turn to look at her. “Are you sure daddy? If you can't, I won't be mad or judge you.” she says, and I can see the worry for me in her eyes. She worries that I can't do this, and it will change me. It probably will, but not in the way she is assuming. I place my hand on her cheek and rub my t
Alpha Sams POV I had gotten some paperwork done, showered and dressed for the occasion. We had hours to kill before the sentencing, and I was not needed with the council, so I used the time to catch up on some bits and pieces. I didn’t want Ren feeling she needed to be working when she was trying to reconnect... or I guess... connect at all with her unit. Spear had been pacing impatiently in my mind ever since. We wanted that bitch dead. We needed her off our pack lands. I could feel it bubbling under my skin every second. ‘Is it time yet?’ Spear growls in my mind for the hundredth time since leaving the meeting room. Whatever calm I had gained from managing to speak to Sequoia had fizzled away as quickly as the link had closed. Spear felt the same and became instantly agitated. ‘Yeah. Its time. Let's get the guys and go end this.’ I say with a sick smile on my face as I stare at myself in the mirror. Sequoia had brought a free-standing floor-length mirror into my suite for me to
Alpha Sam’s POV The pack were all mulling around, eating, enjoying themselves as I march up the centre isle of the seating. The cold evening air was beginning to drop in temperature, and we needed to get on with this before it was too late. Ren is already sitting on the edge of the stage, with her team scattered around her. Myles is sitting next to her as she leans her head on his shoulder. Bloody pup needs to watch his ass, cos if he doesn’t take a giant step back from my underage pup, there is going to be more than one murder here tonight. Spear snarls loudly, alerting the pups to our approach. Ren snaps her head up and looks at me with a smile that would melt any father's heart. A smile that says she loves me and is supportive of me in this decision. I nod lightly to her, and she reciprocates. As we near, I glare at Myles as I pass, but the little shit just smiles. He has his arm around my pup's shoulder, and I want nothing more than to tear it off and beat him with it. Camron i
Serenity POV I square my shoulders, stand straight, and follow my father's unit up the steps. I feel my unit fall into formation behind me and am proud to call them mine. It came so naturally. I never realised what I had been missing out on growing up by pushing these wolves away. Since I woke up in that hospital, with all my secrets laid bare, I had barely been able to catch a minute alone. I know they are worried about when the penny will drop, and I will crash. I know they all watch me, waiting for my breakdown. But they are doing that to be there to catch me when I fall, and nothing feels better than knowing I have them. I won't fall. I won't crash. I have never been better in my life, not that that is saying much. I know I have emotional things to recover from, but I am an Alpha. I have my unit, friends, and family I can rely on. I have my mother. My wolf. I am strong and I will not break because of this one, spoiled, petty, bitch. My father takes his place to the right of the
Sheryl’s POV I can't fucking believe this. That fucking moron rejected me. ME! Is he out of his damn mind?! I have been locked up here for days with no shower, no nothing! I AM HIS LUNA! I was fated to be with him. He should be fucking thankful I didn’t reject his ass first. I know how hot I was when we met. I still am. I may be older, but I just got better and better. I have been pacing this cell for two days, waiting for him to come back. I get that he is mad, but he doesn’t understand! I remember meeting him. I had been a member of Whitetip pack, living with my parents, trying to fuck my way into Alpha Darrius’s Luna position. I had him exactly where I wanted him. He would have marked me. He was a strong and powerful Alpha with muscle that rippled under my fingertips when he pounded into me. He made me feel like a woman. He had been fucking for a year, since I turned seventeen, when that damn asshole had to show up and ruin it for me. They came for some meeting or another, somet
