CooperBeta Trevor is dead, but that witch Levana got away. I have a feeling we'll see her again in another book. :)

I wanted to follow Emlyn to Canyon Ridge, but I need to take care of my dead and injured. Cayd returned to say that Safe Haven had defeated their attackers. It turns out that it was Alpha Samuel’s pack, the Alpha that attacked me in my office the day I impregnated Emlyn. I had no idea that they were still angry about what had happened. They threatened me, why they would think a threat against me, my mate and my pack would go unanswered. He attacked me in my own office. I’m not sure if it was him or Beta Trevor that started the turn against the Guardians, but either way, there were several packs and a lot of rogues that were part of our attack. Alpha Wyatt’s pack was decimated. Alpha Samuel’s old pack was captured. They were tired of living under the rule of first Alpha Samuel and then his Beta turned Alpha Aiden. Most of them had been happy to hear that they would be attacking Safe Haven. They wanted asylum and hadn’t been allowed to leave their pack. The council, now with an entirely
Shattered Bonds Chapter 70: Emlyn
I wake warm and cozy, feeling tired but safe and happy. I snuggle back into the warmth that I know is Richie behind me. My entire backside, from my neck where his face is buried to the bottoms of my feet that are on top of his, are tingling in the most pleasurable way. Nothing feels better than waking up beside my mate. I take a moment to enjoy his warmth, the tingles and his warm breath on my neck but his closeness and my need for him are quickly taking over. I push my bottom back against him and begin to gently run my fingers over his thigh, caressing the soft hairs on his leg. One of his arms is wrapped around me, his hand holding my left breast while the other arm is under my neck, curling back to wrap around me. I start running my second hand over the arm holding me to him. While I slowly move my hips against him, I feel his body starting to respond, even in his sleep. His hand around my breast twitches and I slide the hand on his thigh up, reaching around to grab his perfect as

Emlyn stood beside me as I made a speech about the greatness of our warriors. I talked about the love of the pack and the love of a mate who couldn’t live without their other half, choosing to leave this world to be with them. She stood beside me as many pack members came to pay their respects to their fallen, saying words of courage and love. And she stood beside me as we lit the pyres of our dead and watched them burn. Afterward, we walked around together to our pack members, offering them comfort and consolation during their mourning. We spoke of the happy times and the funny things that our fallen pack members did as we honored their life together. When the celebration of life was over, we ensured all of our pack members were safe and as comfortable as they could be. The one mate that hadn’t died with her warrior mate’s death was in the pack hospital. She was pregnant and close to delivering their child. She did not attend the funeral, but Emlyn and I went to see her, offering he
Shattered Bonds Chapter 72: Emlyn
It was nice to be back in Safe Haven, even if it was for a terrible reason. I hadn’t seen everyone since I went to Araphyra. While Richie spent time with Quinn, I spent time with Riley. It’s strange now that both of us are adults and mated. Clint obviously adores my sister and he’ll be a good mate. Her flamboyance seems to have become a bit muted. That could just be the funerals, but it feels more permanent. It feels as if Clint calms my sister. She and Quinn were already best friends, just like I was with Cayd, Cohen and Clint. So, it will be seamless for them to begin working together now as a team for the pack. I spend a few minutes with Clint, catching up and threatening him that he better be a good mate to Riley. “You know I will be, Em. I’ve always wanted to find my mate. And now I have and she’s my best friend’s sister. It’s perfect. She’s perfect.” It’s been a very sad couple of days and as Richie and I pack Leander into our car, I know today will be even worse. Alpha Anders
Shattered Bonds Chapter 73: Rich
This week has been exhausting. If I thought the funerals for our pack members and those of Safe Haven were difficult, listening to the stories of a great Alpha and Luna was gut wrenching. Listening to everything Alpha Anders did, most of which was before I was born renews my passion and desire to be the best Alpha I can be. I know I can be that man with Emlyn by my side. But in order to do that, my mate needs to wear my mark. As soon as we’re home, I speak to my mother about going away with Emlyn. She is thrilled to be able to watch Leander, grumbling about having to fight Aunt Grace for time with her own grandson. I meet with Jackson, my Beta to ensure he’s prepared to run the pack in my absence. “It looks like Xander is going to remain in the pack, or in the city and continue to take online classes, so if you need anything…” “I have your dad, and both your brothers. Don’t worry, Alpha, I’ve got it covered. After the decimation of one pack, the dismemberment and absorption of anoth
Shattered Bonds Chapter 74: Emlyn
If I’d thought that Richie and I needed time to reconnect, our time on the island was exactly what we needed. We made love, swam, made love, ate, made love, slept. Finley chased Morrigan, Finley caught Morrigan, Morrigan chased Finley and they each marked the other in wolf form, solidifying our overall bond. The weekend was amazing, and I didn’t want it to end, but we both had to get back to the real world. We still have a pack to run. When we get back, Richie schedules an official Luna ceremony, having me take my oath again in front of the pack and having them swear their loyalty to me. It’s not necessary, the pack has already recognized me as his mate and their Luna, but he insisted that we make it official in front of the entire pack. Afterward, we begin to fall into the same pattern we used to have. Richie and I always made a great team. The pack is again running smoothly and before I know it, I’m planning a party for Cayd’s going away. He will be starting college and like Xande
Shattered Bonds Chapter 75: Rich
I know Emlyn is nervous about her birthday. I can feel her nearly constant anxiety through our bond. I love always knowing what Emlyn is feeling or if something is wrong. So, I knew this birthday was causing her stress. I also know, she has nothing to worry about. There is no way that history will repeat itself. It can’t. We’re marked and mated. I want her to realize the past is in the past. And unlike last year, I want to finally give her the watch I had made special for her. It’s been in my drawer for a year. And this year, I had a necklace made for her too. I didn’t want a birthday to go by without getting her a special gift. I don’t ever want to miss celebrating these special moments. However, I nearly cancel when she starts getting sick. I was terrified that I had underestimated her level of stress, even with our bond. Once I realize she’s pregnant and the similarities from last year are making her stress even worse, I make a point to push a calming aura to her even more freque
Shattered Bonds Chapter 76: Emlyn
I feel so much better. In that moment the she-wolf said ‘mate’, I was terrified. But after Richie spent time calming me, letting me open my presents from him, confirming that we’re mates, I feel better. I feel like I’m ready to celebrate! Richie doesn’t leave my side. We walk around, talking to our family and pack members. Everyone notices the necklace and the watch, and he smiles at me as I tell them all that one was my gift from last year and one was my gift for this year. As we all move into the dining room for the dinner feast that has been prepared for me, Richie walks me to our seats, but rather than sit, he waits for everyone else to take their places. “Family, friends, pack members. Today we celebrate one of the most amazing women I’ve ever had the privilege of meeting. And that’s saying something since we all know our packs are full of Guardians.” Everyone laughs at that. “We’ve all had a rough year, none worse than Emlyn.” He pulls me too him, wrapping his arm around me a
