Chapter Forty
(Wilder’s Pov)
I watch the fire flickers low as I hold the squirrel over it to cook. It has been a few weeks since we escaped and it was really only thanks to Athena I had not starved. Sticking to the woods and being unable to shift had made hunting a little difficult for me, however Athena had been willing to share her hunts with me. I was ashamed at what I had become a wolfless rogue Alpha without a pack. I look up from the fire to see Athena draining the blood from another rabbit. “You know I’m still not convinced I won’t wake up to you draining me one night.”
“I make no promises.” She lets out a laugh and I just laugh because if I have learned anythin
Chapter Forty One(Spencer POV) Furious that is the only word to describe the emotions slamming through me at this time. I am furious. He really attempted to play the victim in that room surrounded by so many that had been displaced from their lands and homes by him. Some of those Alpha’s don’t even hold the title anymore all they hold is the hope to regain it and rebuild it. Ez could have easily taken advantage of the situation and took over but instead he offers them sanctuary and helps them every day in the mission to rebuild. I however walk around ashamed most of the time as my mate caused all this, I rejected him and my pack is intact. I would like nothing more than to go for a run but I
Chapter Forty Two(Spencer POV) “Do you know there is a prophecy about you even in the werewolf world though you aren’t called the Goddess’ Lantern we call you the Nights Princess?” “Prophecy?” I ask turning my body on the park bench slightly to face Athena. “The moon goddess was once in love, not mated but in love. The man was ruthless and killed for pleasure. She hated that about him and tried to end the relationship. She cursed him to be reliant on the blood of his enemies and victims for survival. Knowing if he killed everyone that he would starve to death. He didn&rsq
Chapter Forty Three(Wilder POV) As I approach the park I see my daughter, Finn and a few other pups playing in the sandbox with Athena and Spencer talking on a bench nearby. I haven’t gotten to speak with her since the hospital, it’s like she is avoiding me but I have seen her speaking with Athena several times. I think this is my time to approach her but I am halted when I feel eyes on me. I look at the sandbox and see Finn with a scowl on his face looking in my direction so I choose to approach him first. When I kneel down by the sandbox he walks up to me. “You lied. You hurt my mommy.” &ldquo
Chapter Forty Four(Spencer POV) It has been a few weeks since Wilder and I had the talk in the woods and I tried to motivate him and I wish I could say that it worked but nope. It is irritating to see the Alpha that was once so confident it borderlined on arrogance reduced to someone that has zero confidence, always seeking approval and acceptance. He still even pulls away from his own sister when she tries to hug him. I have watched him during training. He is getting stronger and faster but something just seems off. “Why do you look so pissed off Spence?” “Wilder.” “What did my stupid brother do now?” “Nothing.” “I’m going to kill him.” “No Livie he really hasn’t done anything. It is just annoying seeing him acting the way he does it's frustrating he is supposed to be her Alpha after all.”“What does being her Alpha mean Spence?”“I don’t know. We all know the prophecy. He will unite her people. He is blessed.”“If you don’t know why should he? Blessed? He is just trying to
Chapter Forty Five(Wilder POV) I haven’t had a dream this peaceful in a long time. Curled up in bed my arms wrapped around a petite soft body the scent of spicy honey, yes this is the best dream I have had ever. I feel the need to wake up pulling at me and I attempt to pull the warm body tighter to me trying to hold on to this feeling of peace. The warm body wiggles away from my grasp and I grip tighter. A soft growl echoes in my mind as the body slips through my grasp. My eyes snap open at the sound. “Finally, now can I get up?” Spencer states without any edge in her body. The realization that I have slept in the bed with her all night drifts into my mind. I turn toward her and pull away my arms. “Yea…sorry.” my words barely over a whisper. “What's wrong?” She goes to stand a slight blush on her cheeks as she seems to realize the same thing I did. “I thought…I thought I heard a growl in my mind like Zander growling.” “Zander growled at me?” The words were hollow but the flick
Chapter Forty Six(Spencer POV) ‘Happy now Lil?’ ‘Yes I think it will help him. Maybe us too.’ Her voice is stronger than it had been in a while. ‘Stop Lil I did what I did and I am sorry for the price but it had to be done. I’m sorry but it can’t be taken back.’ I state pleading with her. ‘I understand but we both know that isn’t true. But for now I am happy with just helping him.’ Just like that the link fades away and I walk into the kitchen. The pups have finished eating and are drawing pictures on pieces of paper next to their mostly empty plates. I go to the stove and begin making the pancakes using the rest of the batter. I glance at the clock shit it may be Saturday but I have a meeting in just over an hour. I plate the pancakes just as Wilder walks in and makes another cup of coffee then sits down. I place the lone plate in front of him. “Beth will be here to watch Finn soon I have a meeting.” I walk back to the plate of bacon and grab a few pieces before heading to ge
Chapter Forty-Seven(Wilder POV) My hand slides down her wet body skimming her nipple, gliding over her stomach to cup her sex. When my fingers lightly begin to spread her lips open a smile creeps to my face as a moan leaves her mouth. I slip a finger inside her tight opening as I pull her tighter against my chest. She throws her head back on to my shoulder. I remove my hand that is holding her against me and move her head to the side so that my lips find her mouth. She opens her mouth to me without hesitation and our tongues dance together. She grinds her bare ass against my cock as my finger pumps in and out of her tight opening, my thumb rubbing against her clit. She reaches around between our bodies with her hand grips my dick in her small hand."Are you ready for this dick? You want me to fuck that tight cunt?""Yes please Alpha." Her near breathless words come out as a moan. Zander growls lightly in approval in my mind.I bend her forward and use my leg to spread hers apart, Pl
Chapter Forty Eight(Spencer POV)I wait a few minutes before walking up the stairs to my home. It feels weird sneaking out the window of my home but it's a necessary measure so as to not get caught by the pups. The same as making the fold out sofa look slept on every night. What's going on with Wilder and me is complicated and neither of the pups deserve anything complicated. We aren't exactly together, together. He stays at my cottage because it helps with Zander and Maddie likes being here with Finn. The sex is awesome but he hasn't mentioned wanting more and neither have I. I don't know how he feels and well how I feel doesn't matter after tonight I really will have nothing to offer."Bright!""Mommy!" Both pups shout and come running up to me wrapping their arms around my legs squeezing."Oh I missed you both too but it has only been a few hours." I laugh at them."Daddy will be done soon."“Ok, I better go change so we aren't late." I bend down and give them both a kiss."Daddy
