I sat within my room, cross-legged upon my bed staring at the wall opposite me, my hands trembling upon my knees. Aiden has long since gone, telling me it was not safe for him to stay longer than necessary to pass along the message he had come to give me. My mind was now swimming with the things that now lay ahead for me. I cannot believe the moment is now so close. The moment we had spoken of for so long. The thing that had brought me and my mates together. When Alpha Blake had taken me in as his apparent prisoner and I realised how this was going to happen, I thought it could take time, I thought we could be here for months, years even… Ariella had never truly given a time frame when she spoke of this to us. She simply said it could take time, so, perhaps naively, I believed we had time. Though, in truth, I don’t think there would ever be a time that I would feel prepared for what lay ahead. What shocks me still though, is that Ariella certainly never showed a weakne
The moment Aiden left us, we had not stopped. The doctor was doing what needed to be done for Ariella, and we trusted him with those responsibilities, for we had greater duties at present that needed urgent attention. Duties that could not wait a moment longer. Duties that could affect the future of our region. Cayden and I had rushed back to the packhouse, our mindlinks running crazy with instructions for so many people. Barely speaking a word to one another, as we shot mindlink after mindlink out to various people. The time was so close now! My head was buzzing with thoughts, while it was also busy with mindlinks. I was alive with the thrill of the possibility of it all. I just had to hope it all went to plan. The plan we had so carefully devised together as Alphas and warriors or the packs of our region. Revised numerous times, to refine the details to ensure everything came together. Our goals were set. Our targets aimed. We knew what we were to do. Every
I re-adjusted my hair in the mirror, ensuring the long blond curls looked perfect, knowing that Blake could be arriving anytime. I felt sick to my stomach. But I knew that I needed to go through with this, and I needed to look at my best. This was no longer just for my safety. This was for our region. Our future. I took a deep breath, as I adjusted the beautifully lacy deep-purple stockings I was wearing. I had asked the omega to arrange delivery of some lingerie for this moment. She had assisted me with no hesitation. Nothing was too much for me. She had selected numerous sets of lingerie, and stocking sets to match. As well as a selection of toys and lubrication too. She clearly thougt things were going well for the Alpha and I. The thought of a new Luna for their pack seemed to appeal to her, making me question if before my arrival Blake had been using the omegas for sex. It would not be unusual, many Alphas did before finding their mate, or upon losing their mates…
I tease the fabric of Blake’s shirt from his shoulders. Slowly easing it down his arms. His eyes have not left mine. I know how much he is wanting me. I need him to want me. I deliberately run my tongue over my lips causing his gaze to drop to my lips, and I hear a small moan erupt from his mouth as he moves a little closer. His shirt drops to the floor as his hand slipped into my hair. “You are so beautiful Evelyn.” Blake whispers, I watch him intently and note he begins to move his face toward mine, so I quickly move my lips to his now naked chest and begin to shower kisses along his skin. My whole body repulsed by the contact. Hating the thought of betraying my mates, but knowing I am doing what I need to do… Another moan, this time a little louder comes from Blake, as his hand slipped to my waist, pulling me closer to him. A wave of sickness passes over me, but I feel Orla rippling once more beneath my skin, giving me that confidence I need. I need this man to
Blood was spreading across Blake’s chest. All over my hands… it had sprayed across the delicate lace and silk of the beautiful lingerie I was wearing. My whole body trembling as I continued to slash erratically at the toned, muscular chest of the man underneath me. The man who, only moments earlier had been hoping to mark me… make me his… that had been his plan… little did he know, I had a plan of my own. A very different plan to the one he had… My stomach turned at the sight of the blood. So much blood. I was a werewolf. I should be used to blood, but killing was never something I had adjusted to. When Orla chose to hunt, an instinct for our wolves I had always chosen to pull back and stay back, not wishing to witness it. Simply allowing her to enjoy the thrill of the hunt. The thrill of stalking and catching her prey. But this time… this time, it was me who had stalked him. Stalked him since I had arrived here, gaining his trust and fooled him. Now taking his life.
We are prepared. All troops are posted to their locations and everything is in place. It has been a long time since any of our packs have been the ones going to war. Since we have invaded a pack. We have all been invaded in recent decades, all by a common enemy, of course. And, that is what brought us here today. As allies, fighting together to bring that enemy down. I just hoped and prayed that my beautiful Evelyn was safe, and that she had managed what she too, had planned… I had barely slept over the last few days, as we refined the plans repeatedly until there was nothing else we could change. They should be perfect now. I hoped they were. There could be no room for failure. This had to work. Our region depended upon us. In truth, I believed it went beyond that, I believed our nation relied upon the destruction of Alpha Blake, because he was not just a threat to our region but to the nation as a whole. Him being gone meant we were all safer in the longterm.
My whole body froze at the sight of the omega in the bedroom. She was leaning over the bloodied body of Alpha Blake, but as I walked through the door from the ensuite bathroom, the noise must have disturbed her and she turned to look at me. A cold chill spread across my body. I hoped I could get away before anyone knew of what I had done. I knew the smell of the blood was likely to draw attention to the room, but nobody passed by here, so I hoped I would have a little longer… The wide-eyed look of shock on the face of the omega as her eyes focused on me, made my heart pound within my chest. What would she do? Would she mindlink for help? I quickly glanced across the room, trying to remember what I had done with the knife, wondering if I should use it again… “Y..you k…ki..killed him?” the omega said quietly, her voice shaking. "He is dead, you know?" ‘Kill her. You are above her. Your rank outweighs hers. Stronger too. You can. Or I will.’ Orla is urging me, b
Cara took one last look at her master’s bloodied corpse laying on my bed, a small smile upon her lips, before she slipped her hand into mine. “Let us go Evelyn.” She whispered. “I cannot tell you how brave I think you are. He was an evil man. The things he did here are unspeakable. Let alone out of pack.” I am curious of the things she speaks of, but I know at the present moment we do not have the time. One day, I will find the time to sit and talk with this sweet girl, I will find the things she has gone through at the hands of the evil Alpha. Because simply in that small smile alone, I could sense seeing him lying there dead was like a small pleasure for her. Sweet revenge almost. And that told me she had suffered at his hands. Yes, she may have been his omega, but that did not mean she should be made to suffer. I aim to make sure Cara had a better life in our pack. She would not be made to answer to anyone. Even if that meant she became my omega, she would be an omega wit
