Alpha Jack’s POVMaria, Gamma Blake, and I all met in my office after we were assured by the doctor that Addy would be okay. This was the second rouge attack in two weeks. They are coming for Addy, and we needed to think this through.“All three of the boys are going to be staying there until she gets out. You know they won’t leave her side. They don’t know why yet, but you can already see the pull they all feel for her.” Maria said as she sat on the couch curled up next to me.“It will help her heal if they stay, especially Braxton. I know they don’t feel the full effect of the mate bond, but it will help her.” Blake said while sitting across from us in the side chair.I hear a chuckle out of Maria and look down. “What my love?”“They don’t even know their mates, but their pull is so strong. Brax is already in love with her. Did you see the way he looked, and he would have killed that young pup if you didn’t pull him off.” Maria responded to me.“Brax has been in love with her
Addy’s POVIt’s dark. I feel like my body is so heavy and I can’t move my arms or legs. Am I dead? I remember I was fighting some rouges so my friends could get away. The last thing I remember was…Brax, well Blaze. He came to save me.I try moving my hands, but they are stuck, it’s like something is holding them down. I try moving my legs and they feel the same, it’s like a heavy weight is across my legs. Why can’t I move? I try opening my eyes. They feel so heavy, almost like they are glued shut. I try again and a little light starts slipping through my eye lids. The room is dark. I’m not really sure where I am. I look around the room and notice the medical machines beeping next to me. I realize I am in the hospital. He saved me.I look down at my right hand and I see Tristan holding one hand while his head is down on the bed beside it asleep. I look over to my left and see Braxton holding onto my hand, with his head laid down by my shoulder asleep. I smile as I look o
Tristan POVAll three of us left Addy after Lizzy and Gabby showed up. I made sure they promised to keep an eye on her and if she ever started to feel bad, they were to call me immediately. I would keep my phone on me the entire time just in case. When we got to Alpha Jack’s office all three of us walked in and took a seat on the couch. Alpha Jack, Luna Maria, and Gamma Blake were all there. I started to have a feeling that this meeting wasn’t going to be normal. Alpha Jack looked over at Gamma Blake and he stood up and locked the door. He came back over and sat in the chair in front of us. They had arranged for three chairs to sit in front of us, it was a bit intimidating if I am being honest.“Well, this just got intense,” Aaron said as Gamma Blake sat back down. “I need to make sure we aren’t interrupted, and yes, this will get intense. The information we are about to give you…It’s going to be hard to believe.” Alpha Jack said while looking directly at me. I had a feelin
Braxton’s POV“Brax, are you okay?” Tristan asked me. I know I was staring off into space. I felt like my brain just couldn’t wrap around what information I was given, but it was also the feelings I got that I couldn’t explain.“Yeah man, I’m good. That was just a lot. I think you are right though; we need to go and get some rest. Last night was a long night, and we need the rest to be able to process all of this.” Part of me was desperately wanting to go see Addy, especially after the comment Aaron made. I could feel my anger rise when he talked about Addy having a mate. I didn’t want Addy to have a mate, well I didn’t want her to be a mate with anyone else. “Alright,” Tristan said while still looking at me concerned, “I’m going to go see Addy. I will see you both tomorrow morning at training.”“Yeah, that sounds good.” Aaron said while slapping him on the back. “Yeah, we will see you tomorrow. Let me know if Addy needs anything or if she gets worse.” I tell Tristan. He
Addy’s POVI woke up feeling better. My ribs were still sore, but everything else had healed. I looked down at my arm and noticed there wasn’t even scaring. Thank the goddess. I was about to get up and go the bathroom for a shower when Tristan knocked on my bedroom door, before walking in.“Well, I am glad I am not naked.” I said in aggravated tone. He knows I hate it when people just walk into my room without my acknowledgement, and he does it just to irritate me.He gave me that annoying big brother smile, before he came over and sat down beside me on the bed. “I heard you move around; I have been waiting for you get up before I came up. So, I knew you weren’t naked, and well, that’s ewe.” He said with a laugh. I laughed at him and slapped his arm. “Yeah, that is definitely an ewe.”“How are you feeling today kiddo?” he asked, while looking down at the ground.“I am feeling okay.” I looked at him for a bit, before asking, “Tristan, are you okay? I know you are super prote
Braxton’s POVI was standing under the willow tree with Addy. I don’t know why I lead her here. It just felt right when I guided her outside. We had so many memories under this tree where we would play as kids. It always gave us a sense of privacy under the sweeping canopy. I was looking down into her eyes, and everything in me was yelling to kiss her. I wanted to taste her lips so bad. Blaze was pacing and whining in my head. He has had as much trouble as I have with the thought of what would have happened if we didn’t get there in time.When she had told me Blaze was the last thing she saw before she fell unconscious and she knew she was safe, I felt him sit up proudly in my head. I felt entranced in those beautiful eyes as I told her. “I will always be there Addy. I will always protect you.” I meant it with every ounce of my heart. I still didn’t understand this feeling I had towards her, even Blaze was agreeing with always protecting her.As I battled my brain not to
Addy’s POVI spent the morning with Luna Maria. She had always been like a mom to me, and we had a lot of fun talking. I really have missed spending time with her. Right before lunch she said that Alpha Jack had summoned us to the office, and that he wanted to talk to me about something. I figured he would want to talk about the rouge attack, so I wasn’t surprised when I walked in and saw Gamma Blake, Aaron, Tristan, and Braxton there. Tristan stood up and held out his arms so I could walk over and give him a hug.I sat down between him and Aaron and waited for someone to start asking questions.“How are you feeling Little Moon?” Alpha Jack asked. “Much better Alpha.” I said and he raised his eyebrow at me. He always told me to call him Uncle Jack when we were not in front of pack members, I chuckled and repeated myself, correcting my term, “Much better Uncle Jack.” I said with a shy smile. He smiled widely and shook his head in approval. “Blake, you want to start?” Uncle Ja
Addy’s POVBrax had his forehead against mine and our lips were almost touching. He was stern with me at first, but he didn’t scare me. It shocked me because I felt his pain. He was looking deeply into my eyes, pleading with me.“Please Addy, let me protect you. I don’t know if I could live without you.” My eyes grew wide with his words. I knew he was telling the truth; I could feel the sincerity in his voice. We can love others sure. Just like I loved Tristan, and life would be so hard for me without him, but the way Brax was saying this. The pain I heard in his voice; it was more intense. It was like it was spoken with love?I noticed his eyes start to change and I knew Blaze was pushing forward. I wasn’t scared, I could still feel Braxton’s pain almost like it was my own, but it wasn’t mine, it was his. It didn’t make any sense, but I could feel it.“Little moon, let us protect you. You are our heart, and without you we cannot thrive.” Blaze’s voice was mixed with Braxt
