Storm’s pov"She’s grown into a beautiful woman." A blond woman said when I walked out into the hallway."Who?""Aeryn. She reminds me of my mate, Kate. The same curls and the same pretty face hold so many thoughts and worries inside. Kate used to be so scared to talk, thinking she might come across as a smartass or that people would think she was weird. I guess for Aeryn, it’s that she had to hold so much in, scared to tell the truth."I sighed, "but how can you trust whatever the fuck comes out of their mouth if you know there’s so much more they're not saying?""It takes time. I think she’s already talking more freely; I assume she didn’t curse as much back at your pack." Sierra said with a sly smile.I laughed, "only when she was angry at me.""The Omari women are fierce, and the men can be intense, but I am glad to be part of the family."Aaro and her father came out of the office and invited me to join them for dinner, which I really didn’t want to attend, but the look in Aaro’s

Aaro’s pov"Aeryn?" Mom asked, gently tapping my shoulder."He just left. He didn’t even say goodbye." I said softly."He’ll be back. I fucking know it." Mom replied, and she extended her hand, trying to get me to stand up."I don’t think he will."Mom smiled at me and gently touched my cheek, saying, "I’ve sent a lot of people home; it’s just our family now. Let’s get something to eat."I didn’t want to eat, but I didn’t want to be rude either. They held this party for Storm and for me. They had been so welcoming, and he just left. I should be mad, but I only felt sadness. I was sure this was it. I really thought it was over.Mom took my hand and walked with me to the table. Everyone was already seated, and they smiled at me. I didn’t want them to feel bad for me, and I could see they were trying hard to pretend not to pity me. I would have fucking bawled my eyes out if they had.Mom pulled a chair out for me next to her, and we sat down together."Is love supposed to be this fucking
The Stolen Alpha 62. Sorry
Storm's pov I started running back, recognizing the different cities, forests and mountains I saw on the way over here. There were dead people in a lot of places, that had not been collected by their packs yet. This war was fucking brutal. Then at night, when the moon was high in the sky, I was mind-linked again. I almost replied, but I was distracted when a small wolf whimpered towards me. It looked badly hurt, and I heard other wolves fighting nearby. And the fucked up thing was, that I had no fucking desire to join the fight. I had always seen these people as my enemy. The Iron Alpha was a brutal killer and his pack needed to die. And now, I knew those people and I couldn’t kill their fucking soldiers. So, like a damn coward, I ran away from the fight. I knew it wouldn’t take me weeks to get home. Aaro took a long fucking way to get home. She got caught too, but it wasn’t just that. She had no sense of direction, and she had run in circles to avoid me sometimes. It would proba

Aeryn’s pov Storm said my name. I didn’t hear shit after he said my name. It was the first fucking time he called me Aeryn and I didn’t know what to think. Did that mean he accepted me? Did it change anything? I mean, we were still stuck in this mess. I tried to keep my voice from breaking, although I knew he must sense what I was feeling through the bond. This conversation needed to end, so I could fucking think. Or cry. I wasn’t fucking sure at this point. He mind-linked me, instead of waiting for me to reach out. He fucking cared. Ugh, I fucked up. Why did I even mind-link him every night? It was only going to make things harder. What were we going to do? Never be together and just talk every night. I wanted more. I wanted a life with Storm. I cried myself to sleep, wishing he was here and feeling fucking guilty about it. I couldn’t ask Storm to abandon Eve there and just come back. I couldn’t ask him to give his pack up for me. He was the fucking Alpha. I woke up after barel

Storm’s povHow fucking stubborn was I, thinking I could do everything myself?! I had no fucking clue what to do, and the only person I knew that had my back was Aeryn. Which was fucking hilarious considering I just ran away from her and tried to kill her the week before that.I didn’t fully trust Aeryn; how could I after what she had done? But I did know she cared about me. There was no fucking point in mind-linking me each night. Or telling me she missed me or loved me. I was gone, so why try to manipulate me? Besides, I could feel her emotions. I knew she wasn’t lying.So I asked her for help. I had no idea how she could help, but maybe she could come up with a plan with me? Or her dad could do something? Fuck, I am the Alpha of the fucking century. Goddess, I suck at this job."You’re not that bad." Brand said, and I appreciated the small amount of support I was getting from him. Anything was better than the silent treatment."You don’t have to do this alone."The only person who e

Storm’s pov"I need to get Declan, Jace, and Bella out of here," I told Aeryn."They’re more than welcome to come here, if that’s what you mean," she said surprised."I can’t raise them on my own while running a pack, and I need them to have a loving family for fucking once. They’re not bad kids, but if they stay here, they will grow up to think like the rest."Aeryn was quiet for a while. "Like you?"I sighed, "I am starting to see things differently. I was too fucking stubborn to appreciate what I witnessed at the Iron River pack. I have always dreamt about leading a pack like that. Where respect and love were more important than obedience. Where people actually have a choice and a strong leader they want to follow.""Maybe you can be that leader for the Winter Bone pack." Aeryn said, but I wasn’t so fucking sure.Could I really change the minds of all these people here? Maybe before the war, but so many people had lost a family member, and all they wanted was to have someone to blam

Aeryn’s povI saw Samatha and a woman come out of the tunnel, and it took me a second to realize it was Eve. Samantha looked a lot thinner, and she had big bags under her eyes, but Eve was unrecognizable. She looked like a skeleton; her hair was gone, and she looked fucking broken.Dad was walking in and out of Kane’s office, checking up on both of us. I appreciated that he trusted me to handle this, but I also valued that he still kept an eye on us, just in case we needed him.Dad, we need to have the pack doctor ready for Eve.""I will send him to the airport with a few soldiers. Do you want to go there yourself?"I nodded. "Yes, I think it would be nice for her to see a familiar face."I went back to helping Storm get his siblings out of there. I fucking loved that he thought to send them here; it meant he trusted my pack enough to care for them.His whole fucking family would be here. His mother, his brothers and sister, his future child. But Storm would be alone."You." Delta adde

Storm’s povSeeing my mother in this state was making me feel so fucking helpless. All I could do was watch her while the doctor tried to help her. There were so many things I wished I had done differently so that she wouldn’t be in this fucking mess, but I also knew that somehow things had to go as they did. Or Aeryn wouldn’t have ended up at home, and I wouldn’t be here right now.I just wish my mother didn’t have to get hurt in the process.The only thing that could make me feel better was having Aeryn in my arms. So as soon as the doctor told me Mam would be sleeping for a while, I walked back. It was early morning, and there was no one on the streets, but even if there had been people, I would have felt safer here than at home.Dad raised me with paranoia, making sure I understood that my pack could hurt me if I let down my guard. He made sure that no one ever got too close to me, that I would be scared to let anyone in, knowing they could betray me.It took me a while to see that
