Chapter 53 - Kurt
I am not surprised that John going to help Sarael look for ingredients would go astray. She would have been capable of finding everything herself. He wanted an excuse to be alone with her.
The only problem with their attempt at a quickie is we’re all here. Sure I had no reason to go looking for John and Sarael. But my poor scared-for-life mate did. I don’t care if the sight of John and Sarael making out scared Khalid. Screw him.
But honestly, there are worse things to walk in on. They weren’t having sex, so there’s that. And I’ve had the misfortune of walking in on people in the act. So Isis and Khalid dodged a bullet there.
It’s best to just put it all behind us. We have more important things to worry about right now.
Tanner is onboard with joining Silverclaw as the Gamma. It just means I have to talk to Collin about being Beta and then to Logan about letting them leave Bloodmoon with me. The latter is the scary part.

I put any concerns about Zelma aside. I don’t want to draw conclusions when I don’t know her that well. She may surprise us all and be good as a Gamma female. ‘I’m not going to hold my breath. People do not change overnight. She was a cruel bully growing up, and even being mated to a kind male like Tanner won’t make her personality switch.’ Bastet scoffed. She’s right, of course, but that doesn’t mean I need to listen to her. I refuse to focus on adverse outcomes. We need positivity, especially with the upcoming fight on our hands. After lunch, we divided up to be ready for tomorrow. Aunt Sarael gave us what herbs she had on hand for the anti-magic anchors to bring back to the apartment. She and Uncle John would work on making the anchor breakers. We had quietly entered the apartment, not wanting to wake up Dani. But it was not given Dani was leaning on the kitchen counter drinking from a blood bag like it was a juice pouch. I suppressed

I could care less about Khalid’s exes. They aren’t my problem. Though I have heard of Dania, I don’t need to meet her to know I’d knock that bitch out. I know exactly how she treated Isis. The anger I felt on behalf of a stranger at the time seemed extreme. But, reflecting on it, maybe somewhere in my or Godric’s subconscious, we knew Isis was our mate. I smirked as Dani said she’d spoken to and told off Dania. Not that I’m going to ask. I do wonder how that conversation went. I feel that Dani isn’t the sort who would go into details. “I don’t remember that. Is that why you crushed my phone and said I needed to get a burner to avoid getting tracked?” Khalid questioned. Dani shrugged. “My reasoning was sound. If she could reach you anyone in your guild could. It wasn’t intelligent of you to keep the same phone. And if someone kept you on the phone long enough, they could track it.” “She makes a good point. Thought you were supposed to be smarter than that.” I

I’m not sure which I’m more concerned about. That we were instantly surrounded by aggressive vampires, that they asked if this was another attempt at getting their aid, that they thought my brother was a snack, or that Dani and her sister were fighting.It all happened so quickly. Thankfully Caleb arrived and ensured his clan didn’t attack us. And I suppose if he’s not worried about his mate and Dani fighting, we shouldn’t be either. He did say this is their tradition.And it was adorable how warmly he greeted and welcomed Khalid. Khalid needs more people to see and treat him like family, no questions or conditions required.“Thank you, Caleb. I think that would be in everyone’s best interest.” I agreed.Nigel and Kurt both relaxed a fraction on either side of me. At least I know I’m well protected, even though I have little doubt that between Bastet and me, we could handle ourselves against some vampi

It was a hell of a relief that Caleb was on board with at least Bryon helping us tomorrow night. It will make things that much easier on the rest of us.We had to return to Mount Hood. We had a lot of planning to do. So we wrapped up fairly quickly after Caleb approved Bryon helping us.I was almost surprised that Khalid and Dani didn’t want to try and stay there with the clan to spend time with Dani’s sister. I’m glad they didn’t ask to stay because I’d have to say no. There was no way I was letting Khalid out of my sight.Logan would have my head if Khalid went anywhere unsupervised. I think they know that. So I’m grateful they didn’t put me in the position of having to tell them no or get in trouble with Logan.When we arrived at the packhouse, I wasn’t surprised to find Collin and Tanner sitting in the living room with their mates, and the Bloodmoon ranked wolves. Collin and Mary looked confused ab
The Reluctant Alpha Chapter 58 - Isis
The plan was relatively simple and certainly straightforward. We would be using a pincer attack to best contain the Syndicate members.One point that I stressed during the planning is that we are not looking to hurt the Syndicate members and certainly not kill them.After all, we are hoping when this is over, those still loyal to the Silverclaw pack and the Argyris Alpha bloodline will accept Kurt and follow him. And if we attack and start hurting or, worse, killing people, they will resent us.Alpha Logan was in agreement so long as that didn’t include Wade and Noya. I couldn’t find fault with that. After all, even I’m itching to kill Noya. Not just for her disgusting plans for my mate but for how she’s been treating that innocent child.And I’m sure there are members of the Syndicate that have no ties or loyalty to the Silverclaw pack and the Argyris line. They were true rogues taken in by Seigfried. So if they choose to figh

I’m not as worried about Dani being in this fight as I am about Khalid being in the conflict. He’s the human walking into this fight. To me, that makes him a liability. He gets injured or captured and becomes a distraction not just for his mate but also for mine. Isis and I need to be entirely focused on the task today. We are here to get my sister and, with luck, the scepter. And if the Moon Goddess is looking to be extra generous, we can make the world a better place by removing Noya and Wade from it.I was curious that Caleb and Mariana were here waiting with Byron. I thought it was rather clear from our meeting tha Caleb didn’t want more than Bryon getting involved and he was only supposed to identify where the magic was used and leave. Them coming wasn’t part of the deal.“Caleb? What’s going on, man? Thought it was going to just be Byron. Did something come up?” I asked as we approached the trio of vampires.“Hey, Kurt.” Caleb greeted with a smile offering his hand in greeting.
The Reluctant Alpha Chapter 60 - Isis
So far, our strategy has been working. The other teams are drawing the fighting force away from us. And now we have the name of Kurt’s sister and directions to the house she is being held.However, it was odd that they didn’t know Talia was Siegfried’s child. As the daughter of the Alpha, wouldn’t she have been treated as their Princess? The way Hana is the Princess of Bloodmoon and Katrina was the Princess of Incubi?“Why wouldn’t they know Talia is Siegfried’s daughter?” I questioned because it was really starting to bother me.“As strange as it might sound, especially given we are talking about Seigfried. He may have kept her identity secret for her safety.” Kurt explained.“I can understand wanting to keep her safe, but why keep her identity hidden from the pack?” I furrowed my brow.“Even within a regular pack, an Alpha must be careful about the safety of their
The Reluctant Alpha Chapter 61 - Kurt
I want to believe Talia. I want to trust she has the best intentions. That she’s not going to lead us into a trap. I truly want that. But there is a nagging voice in my head… oh wait, that’s Godric. ‘What? I know she’s just a child, and I should give her the benefit of the doubt. Yadda. But she is still a child of Siegfried, even if she didn’t know it.’ Godric defended himself. ‘I’m a child of Siegfried.’ I countered. ‘That is different. You weren’t raised in this cult because that’s exactly what the Syndicate is. Talia’s been raised with these beliefs. We can’t know how deep that goes. We need to be cautious.’ Godric sighed. ‘You worry about that. I’m going to do for my sister what the Kinsley family did for me, have faith.’ I dismissed him as I followed Talia into an alley. ‘We have my sister. We picked up a signal on the scepter, and my sister is leading us into the underground tunnels. Start falling back.’ I called out through the pack link to everyone who came with us. ‘Are
