The Wolf's Claim Eighty-Nine: Lana
Lana's P.O.V. My mind kept telling me to grab Maddie and run, to get as far away from the pack and the pain as possible. But my heart had me stumbling next to Oliver, gripping his hand tightly as he walked me to his land. The tall cover of trees let in streams of moonlight between the branches, and I took in a deep breath as we stopped under the largest section of moonlight. Oliver turned, moving to stand in front of me as he wrapped his arms around me and pressed a kiss to my forehead. "Are you ready, my mate?" It felt like a trick question. Was I ready to have all of my bones break and realign as I sprouted fur and transformed into a wolf? No. Absolutely not. Was I ready to be able to defend myself and my daughter against the upcoming threat? Fuck yes. The feigned confidence I had been holding onto faltered as I felt the muscles in my arm twitch, and I tensed as I waited for the bone to break. "Once it starts, it will be over very quickly. You just have to stay calm and focus on
The Wolf's Claim Ninety: Oliver
Oliver's P.O.V. There was a celebration back at the pack house. Since we weren't allowed to go on our normal run with the rogues closing in on us, those who were able to participate joined us in front of the pack house in their furs. Lana stumbled at first, but she moved swiftly within a few minutes like she was a professional... like she had meant to be a wolf her whole life. But I had never seen a human transform and handle their new form so easily. It made me admire her all the more. The pack greeted her eagerly, rubbing against her side and letting out wolfish noises of welcome in her direction. I smiled at her, watching as she took everything in with her newly heightened senses. 'She did well,' Parker's voice came through my mind as he moved to stand next to me. His size was only slightly bigger than mine, something that was rarely seen in those who had not been born of an Alpha bloodline. 'She really did. She is strong.' I said softly, keeping my eyes on Lana as Kaylee appr
The Wolf's Claim Ninety-One: Lana
Lana's P.O.V. Everything about the world was completely different than what I knew and how I had previously experienced it. The Earth was softer, sinking beneath my paws with each step I took. The trees smelled stronger and sweeter, and the air was crisper. It was like I had entered a new universe. Nothing was the same as before, but it was even more beautiful. I could see why the wolves enjoyed the wilderness. The life surrounding them and the clean air felt invigorating. We had started out slow, jogging along the border of the houses, staying close to the center of the community. Several wolves had joined us at first But as we continued on, they dropped off one by one, giving us our privacy, and probably getting bored by our small and repetitive circle. But for me, it was more exciting each time. I would notice new things with each lap. New smells, sounds, colors. It was incredible. 'How are you feeling, my mate?' O
The Wolf's Claim Ninety-Two: Lana
Lana's P.O.V. Oliver's muscles tensed as he stared down at me, his beast at the surface but patiently waiting. It was as if he were holding his breath in anticipation. "Do you?" I asked again, stepping up on my toes to get closer to him. Oliver lowered himself, his hands landing on my hips, giving me full access to the area where I would mark him. I brushed my lips along the skin, feeling a primal urge coming forward, trying to compel me to bite down into his soft flesh and claim him as mine. "Lana," He growled, his fingertips digging into my hips. "Don't tease me. I don't think you understand how long I have waited for this moment. I want to be yours as much as you are mine." I pulled back, glancing up at his eyes, amazed at their beauty as they shifted from black to forest green. My hand moved up to grab the back of his head. "You are mine," I whispered as I pulled his face down, capturing his lips. Oliver slid his hands from my hips to the back of my thighs, lifting me from the
The Wolf's Claim Ninety-Three: Lana
Lana's P.O.V. I couldn't stop smiling. All morning I was grinning like a Cheshire cat. It all started when I woke with my face on Oliver's shoulder. The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes, was my claim on his skin. The irritated flesh topped by the silver scar tissue of my mark had me almost purring with giddiness. I knew wolf customs would be different than human customs, and while they were unfamiliar to me, this one felt as if we had just gotten married. The excitement of the honeymoon phase had butterflies in my chest. As Oliver walked with a smile rivaling the size of mine and his chin high, I knew he was just as happy. Each time we passed someone on our way to the kitchen and they offered us a smile or a knowing nod, his back seemed to straighten even more with pride, and he would gently squeeze my hand. It was one of the most adorable things I had ever seen him do. Knowing he was excited about having my mark on him
The Wolf's Claim Ninety-Four: Oliver
Oliver's P.O.V.My teeth ground together as I stared ahead at Parker."It's for you," Parker mouthed silently as he raised his eyebrows and glanced pointedly at the phone. I had been excited to request my position as a warrior back. I wanted to start training again, even if it was within the center of the pack land and not out on the training field with the rest of my people.Instead, I was the butt of Parker's joke as I entered his office right as Alpha Jones of the Mountain pack called. I froze in panic as he gestured for me to have a seat and announced my presence for Alpha Jones to hear. The smug look on his face told me that he was getting even for one of the other times I was a sarcastic ass to him.The knowing smirk on his face made me want to smash the phone on the desk into pieces. But like the obedient subordinate I was, I sat back and fought the urge to destroy his personal property."You're the worst," I mouthed back, c
The Wolf's Claim Ninety-Five: Lana
Lana's P.O.V. I was livid. The aches in my body were appearing as quickly as they were healing. Each time I thought I had the upper hand, I was wrong. Aspen was too quick. She had me doing the same moves over and over, not letting me move on until they were perfect. Maddie had long ago grown bored and was inside with Oliver relaxing or playing. I wasn't sure which one, but I would rather be inside with them than getting my ass kicked. We hadn't gotten past the basics of self-defense, according to Aspen, but she wouldn't move past it until she felt I had mastered them. I had never seen this side of her before. It was shocking to see the change from a sarcastic and feisty woman to an emotionless warrior. Oliver had been right. She was unstoppable. I wanted to learn everything I could from her. A groan left my mouth as I was thrown onto my back, the soft grass doing nothing to cushion my fall. The power and strength of the she-wolf before me were unlike anything I had ever imagined
The Wolf's Claim Ninety-Six: Oliver
Oliver's P.O.V. My hands tightened into fists as I approached the large, reinforced yet rusted door of the dungeon. The last time I had been here, I was the one in chains. Adeline had been staying with us at the time. She had come to us when Kaylee had been kidnapped by those fucking vampires. As the mother of his child, she asked for help, and we gave it. Only it drove my mother crazy, watching my father trail after Adeline like a lost puppy. They spent hours every day and night together laughing, bonding, and trying to find new ways to locate Kaylee. In the end, they failed at finding her and simultaneously managed to drive my mother insane. She watched for years as my father openly loved Adeline and fought the accusations anytime their relationship was questioned. He claimed they were just best friends, and I tried to see it his way. I truly did give him the benefit of the doubt. But when my mother snapped and made a desperate attempt to get Kaylee and Adeline out of our life
