Beta Liam He doesn't think I've been watching him tonight but I have, from the moment the girls arrived he started drooling at my girl like she was a juicy piece of meat, Cal noticed too and was quick to bring me out of my anger before I tore his throat out! He was drunk arriving at the party which isn't a great sign but he won't do anything to anyone because both me and Cal are staying sober and alert tonight and I've got my eyes firmly on him. I hate the feeling it gives me when I see him drooling over Bethany, I know she's my mate but she doesn't and there's always a small part of me that worries that she'll become interested in someone until she's is of age, it does happen. Wolves have boyfriends and girlfriends until they find their mates and I'm not ashamed to admit that the idea of that happening with my girl terrifies me, she's mine! My mate and just the thought of someone else touching her in any way makes me want to tear the place apart. I bring my burning anger in to

Beta Liam 2 days have passed since the last attack and finally, it's starting to look like he's run out of Rogues. Of course, Alpha John won't let his guard down until the Beta has been caught and killed, he can't just let him off when there's a chance he will return again. My girl is 18 tomorrow and I'm so excited I feel like a 5-year-old waiting for Santa to come on Christmas eve. Just one more day without her at my side, fuck when I look back over the last 3 years I honestly don't know how the fuck I've done this, but one thing is for sure, I've got a shit load more control than I ever thought possible! I've sent my men back to the pack ready for the ball tomorrow, it's an annual ball to help wolves find their mates. Each year a different pack organizes the ball on a date announced by the elders and this year it just so happens to fall on our pack to organize it and on Beth's birthday. I want to make tomorrow as special as possible for my girl, including her finding out we are

Beta Liam "Beta! Beta Liam wake up!" The darkness starts fading out but everything is still blurry, I can hear faint voices in the background but I can't place who they belong to. "Beta Liam, can you hear me?" I start to regain my focus and blink my eyes to try and clear my sight. "Liam get your fucking ass up now, nap time is over!" I turn my head towards the window knowing exactly whose voice that was, only Ashley would talk to me like that when I'm in this situation. I flip him my middle finger and the prick laughs at me, he's going to pay for that later! "Beta Liam cover your eyes!" I look up to see Toby standing on the hood of the car, looking past him I can see ropes that have been tied to the front of the SUV, and back up on the road there are some of our warriors holding the ropes. I can't make out who they are in the darkness but I hope to fuck they hold on tight because my leg is still stuck and there's a long drop behind me. I close my eyes and seconds later I hear the

Bethany After we managed to pause the kissing, we enjoyed the picnic that Liam had arranged and it was beautiful but I'm getting distracted by all the questions that are swarming my head, that and wanting to climb back into Liam's lap and kiss the shit out of him. Once we've finished, we decide to head back to the packhouse so we can talk with the others. Liam links our fingers as we walk back and I feel shy and nervous about seeing everyone but I'm also incredibly proud to have Liam as my mate and I want everyone to see. He doesn't seem to care who sees us as he tightens his hold on my hand rather than letting it go as we step inside. We head for the stairs to go to my floor when we cross paths with Jake, he gives me a friendly smile but I don't miss Liam tensing up next to me nor do I miss the low growl he lets out. "Wait... is that why you didn't like Jake?" "He's wanted you from the very first time he saw you, he still does now!" He growls out. Instead of saying anything I p

Bethany The moment I close the door I miss him, Fuck the pull of the mating bond is crazy add in the fact that I've wanted Liam for 3 years and you've got one intense feeling! I head for my bedroom and quickly strip off before warming the shower up. I pin my hair up because I'm too tired to deal with drying it right now and make quick work of showering before putting on some plain black cotton shorts and a matching thin strap top and nose-dive my bed. Within 10 minutes I know I won't be getting any sleep tonight, I'm exhausted but I can't get Liam out of my head, still can't believe he's my mate and he didn't reject me. In fact, he seems to want me just as much as I want him. I don't know how I got so lucky but I will spend every day of my life thanking the moon goddess. I've always loved stretching out in my queen-size bed but right now I feel lost laying here, for the first time ever it feels like the bed is too big. I want my mate, I don't want to sleep on my own. He said
