Elsa

“She’s actually dead?”

Rex nods his head at me. “She was lying to you, Elsa, to all of us. It wasn’t Nate she was sharing information with, it was Finn. He knew about her all along.”

“Really? She’s dead?” I could feel the corners of my lips involuntary turning up.

“She was jeopardising my pack. I won’t have that. I know you probably never really wanted to kill her, but I had to make the call in the moment.”

“That’s brilliant news!”

He raises an eyebrow, “I was expecting you to be upset.”

I shake my head at him. “I’ve wanted her dead since I found out what she did, what she’s been responsible for.”

“You are very calm about this.”

“Do you realise how many times I wish I had the ability to kill someone? Before I was turned into a Wolf, I mean. Every asshole that hurt me. Every person that caused me pain. My tormentors. And I was never able to.”

“That’s the Lycan blood talking.”

“Or maybe it’s who I truly am.” I mutter

    RexI hurry across the grounds. Elsa runs quietly behind me.“Did he say what’s wrong?” She asks.We slow to a walk as we approach their house“No, but it didn’t sound good.”Rosa comes out of the house first. She shakes her head a little, signalling that the twin in question didn’t make it.Oliver appears with the dead pup in his arms. There was so much pain etched in his eyes as he looked straight ahead. “He didn’t survive.” Oliver whispers“I thought everything was good?” I look at Rosa as Oliver answers“He stopped breathing. There was nothing that we or Rosa could do. He wasn’t strong enough. His lungs and heart were too weak.”His words were coming out in a singular tone. Repeating the words he had been told.“I’m sorry,” Elsa whispers from behind me.Oliver locks on to Elsa. “You’re sorry? If it weren’t for you. He would be thriving.”I place myself between them, blocking his view of her. “It’s not Elsa’s fault.”“No, she’s right. It’s yours.” He shakes his head at me. “Zara w

    RexOliver and Zara eventually return for James. Oliver appeared calmer, though his eyes searched the room.“She isn’t here.” I mutter, knowing full well he was looking for Elsa.“I wanted to apologise. I was out of order.” Oliver mumbles.“You held a knife to her throat. She’s pretty upset.”“And he thoroughly regrets it!” Zara tells me while glaring at Oliver with her hands on her hips“I do. I was out of line. Rosa gave me something to calm me and now I see how I reacted. That it was my own grief for my child.”“Oliver, you are my Beta, my best friend. But if you ever pull that shit again, there will be no second chance. I won’t wait for Rosa. I will snap your neck myself.”“Understood. It won’t happen again.”“Good.”“Will you tell her I’m sorry?”“Oh no!” Zara mutters. “You will be telling her yourself!”“You will have to wait until morning anyway. She has gone to bed. Zara, why don’t you take James home, I need to have a word with Oliver.”She nods her head, kissing Oliver on th

    ElsaThere are eight of us on the plane in total. Me, Zara, Rex and some other elite chosen ones.Rex had kept conversations with me basic, not mentioning children again and making sure that I don’t see Zara and Oliver’s little boy. Instead of talking, he made sure I was getting all the training I needed.Rex takes the seat next to me. He gives me a tight lipped smile. “Are you okay?”Three days we had spent discussing this plan before Rex gave the go ahead. Three long days of him explaining every little detail to me because I still insisted that we didn’t need to go. Three days of me practising my control on shifting. Was I ready?I nod, my fingers grip on to the armrest as we take off. I hated flying!He places a hand on top of mine. “I’m right here.”The seven of them talk. Going over the small details one final time while I sit in silence. Waiting for Finn to realise I was there.I wouldn’t be taking the purple potion again. In a few hours, when it wears off, that will be it.Rex

    RexI had lost sight of the car. I tried to keep up but the human that was driving had sped away.“It’s alright.” Zara mutters. “She’s trained for all scenarios.”“Being trapped between a Lycan and a human? I should have stopped Corina the moment we saw her.”“We can’t. Elsa needs to do this.” She gently places her hand on my arm as she stares at me. “She can do this.”“What if?”“No what if’s, Alpha. I know you care about her but you need to have some faith that she can do this. Otherwise, what was the point in me training her?”The others come out of their hiding spots. Wanting to know our next moves.“We track down the vehicle.” I mutter. “We get to it before Corina gets Elsa to Finn.”We move in silence. The others knew my expectations. Though usually, there wasn’t a girl involved. And it had been a long time since we had battled anyone.I catch the scent of a human, heading my way. He freezes when he sees me and drops to his knees. His hands in the air. “Please…. I didn’t want

    ElsaI had let Corina think she was winning. I had let her carry me through the woods, pretending to be unconcious. I had listened to her as she had muttered how she would have killed me already if it wasn’t for Finn. Finn wanted me alive and she was going to make sure I arrived that way.When she started telling me how she was going to remove Rex’s limbs one by one, I lost it. I attacked, taking her by surprise. Sinking my claws into the top of her skull, I pulled and pulled. She barely made a sound. Not even when her flesh began to tear.Her spine came with her head. Zara had said I was strong, but I didn't think I was that strong.Her spine dragged along the ground as I continued to move in the direction Corina had been taking me.I thought about waiting for Rex, but at the same time, I wanted to throw my mothers head at Finn’s feet. I wanted him to see what I was truly capable of.Walking until I am out of the woods. I stare up at the big house. There are no guards. Finn had no o

    Rex“Why did she go inside the house?” I whisper to Zara. “She’s putting herself right in the lion’s den.”Zara hushes me. “Something is off.”“Yes. My mate just freely walked into his house. That was never part of the plan.”“Forgive me, Alpha. But so far nothing has gone according to plan. And we are sitting here, hiding in plain sight, on your orders.”I send one of the other Lycan’s to go and look around. There was no one else here. No humans. No Wolves and definitely no Lycans.He makes his way across the grounds. Keeping low to the ground and hopefully out of sight. He disappears around the side of the house where we couldn't see him.“Don’t you think it’s odd that Finn answered the door himself?” Zara whispers“It’s his home.”“Yes, but he went to all this trouble of taking over and killing humans, creating Wolves. Where are his guards? Why isn’t the house protected?”“He won. He declared it. Everyone in this country bows to him. But you are right. This house isn’t even guarded

    ElsaThe plane touched down and just like before, there were cars waiting for us. People looking on eagerly. Rex must have told them already.Oliver runs towards us, embracing Zara and lifting her off the ground. He thanks Rex for bringing her home. And quickly starts asking questions, wanting to know what happened.“Debrief back at the house.” Rex mutters. His hand had been on mine the entire time since he had pulled me on his lap. Almost afraid to let me go.The car ride is quiet. Rex’s eyes would fall on me every few minutes. I could feel his worry. The concern that he had for me. He wanted to ask me questions but I knew he would wait until we were alone.Even when Rex invites them in so they could talk, he still refuses to let go of me. Maybe it was his touch, holding me together like glue. Preventing me from having some kind of melt down.They sit around the glass table.

    RexElsa was gone by the time I woke up. In her place in my arms was her pillow. She was pretty good at getting away if she needed to. I was massive in comparrison to her.She hadn’t been gone long, her scent was still strong. Maybe an hour tops.Dressing, I follow her scent through the house and out the front door. “Alpha Rex!” Zara calls out to me. She hurriedly paces towards me with James strapped to her chest“Zara, I’m a little busy.”“I know.” She matches my strides. “You’re looking for Elsa. I can save you the trouble. She’s with Rosa.”“Why?”She shrugs her shoulders at me. “It seemed important but I didn’t think it was my place to ask. Maybe she has gone to ask Rosa for some help. Elsa hasn’t really said much since the plane or the meeting. I’m sure she must be grieving to a point.”“Maybe, maybe not.” I turn ready to head in Rosa’s direction. Thinking about how she broke down in the shower yesterday.“Has she said anything to you? About how she killed Corina?”“No.”“Alpha,

  • Claimed By The Lycan Alpha   Epilogue.

    Elsa Five months had passed since I killed Kyra. Some nights, her face still haunts me and Rex needs to remind me that I killed her. That there was no way she was coming back this time. There had been no sightings of Vampires, making Kyra right about one thing. She took us on alone. Maybe she really had been ready to die. Fingers click in my face. “Daydreaming?” I smile at Rex as he hands me a juice. He kisses me on the cheek and then kisses my very swollen belly. “I can’t help it.” I whisper, taking a mouthful of the juice. “There hasn’t been a problem in months. Everyone is happy.” “What about Oliver? he still hasn’t forgiven you.” “He never will. I was the reason he lost his mate.” “But…” “It doesn’t matter. I would be the same if I lost you. Now drink, I want our boy to be strong.” I roll my eyes at him. It still wasn’t a hundred percent certain that we were having a boy or girl. “Why don’t we just go and see Fern? She has a machine that can tell us.” He pleads. He h

    RexIt takes a few hours for one of the guards to locate Rosa. They find her unconscious and in her underwear. Tied to a tree and gagged in the deepest part of the forest.Her blonde hair was a mess, she had scrapes and bruises all over her, but she insisted she is fine. That worse things have happened to her.She stands next to me as we both look on over Elsa.“Still no sign.” I mutter. She had been barely conscious when we found Kyra. By the time Elsa was dropped to the ground, she was completely unconscious and she had been that way since. That was three days ago.I couldn’t find a single mark on her. No bullet holes. No strange scent coming from her mouth. The baby’s heart was beating normally too and yet, she couldn’t wake up.“I have tried everything.” Rosa murmurs.“I know.”“No, you don’t understand. There is nothing else. No other medicine. No herbal remedy. No concoction. Her heart is beating perfectly and so is the heart of the unborn pup. I cannot find anything wrong.”“I

    RexNo one had seen Rosa. She had just vanished.For a brief second, I feel Elsa. Pure dread washes over her.‘Elsa, talk to me.’ I link as I hurry back towards Rosa’s cottage. "Is something wrong? Is it the pup?"Links start coming in from Oliver and other guards in the forest. Lycans had been found dead. Silver bullets in their heads or their hearts.‘It’s not Rosa’. Elsa is somehow keeping calm. ‘It’s Kyra. I can kill her.’‘Elsa, you can’t shift. You are pregnant.’Her fear kicks in as she realises she is at a massive disadvantage.As I approach Rosa’s cottage, I feel Elsa’s pain.‘Elsa you need to keep talking.’ But there was silence and she wasn't here.‘Elsa?’Pushing open the door of the cottage, I find it empty, the fire in the fireplace had gone out a long time ago.‘Elsa, where are you?’‘Forest.’ She whispers back which is followed by a cry of pain.Zara and Oliver come running towards me.“We have been breached.” Oliver mutters.“I know that. It’s Kyra, she portrayed hers

    ElsaHis grey eyes don’t leave mine as his brain puts together what I was trying to say. It was the birth of Zara and Olivers twins that had freaked me out. The fact that one twin was fine and the next minute, he was gone and nothing could have helped him. I was certain it was me, that I had brought my bad luck with me and I was afraid of something happening to James.The day that I realised I was late on my period. I freaked out because I didn’t want children. Knowing that I would be a bad mother. Nor was I ready for them. Not with everything that's happening right now.Rosa had taken one look at me and said I was pregnant. One single look. She told me that she would find me a test to confirm it.I hadn’t said anything to anyone. I didn’t understand how she knew. She encouraged me to talk to Rex, she told me that he would be happy. Of course he would. He had openly said it. I was the problem. Me not him.It was now. I had to tell him now before he got himself killed.His hand pushes

    Rex“She’s panicking.” I mutter as Oliver hangs up the phone to one of the Alpha’s“Do you want to go and check on her? I can keep making calls.”“She said she stubbed her toe.”He smiles as he tries not to laugh. “She doesn’t quite understand the matebond does she?”“No. Our bond is different to what she had with Nate. She probably doesn’t understand that I know she’s lying or the fact I can feel it.”“You should tell her.”“I will, but not right now. It's only something she has heard. It's nothing major. Plus, she’s with Rosa, maybe it’s something Rosa has said, but right now, we need to prepare for the meeting at two.”He rings around to a few other packs. Oliver was pretty much getting the same response I was. They weren't happy, but they agreed to the meeting.“That’s the last of the Alpha’s.” Oliver mutters as he hangs up. “They have all agreed.”“And they are all pissed about it.” I groan“Do you blame them? We haven’t had to discuss Vampires in a long time. They’re not stupid

    Elsa“You hit me?” I mutter, rubbing my cheek after I slammed my hand against her face.“You are not yourself. I need you to snap out of it. We all do.”“I’m fine.” I mutter, but I wasn’t sure if that was true. My mind seemed to be running at a million miles an hour. Different images popping into my head. I was trying to remember what Kyra had said the last time I saw her. If there was even a hint of a plan in her words. I couldn’t. All I could remember was her horrible smug smile. “Elsa?” Rex smiles, slipping his hand between the front seats and reaching for mine.I take his warm fingers in mine. His calmness was reassuring. How he was always calm when chaos surrounded me, I will never understand.“Just breathe.”For a few moments, I do as he says. Pushing all the bad thoughts from my head. Trying to give myself a clear mind so that I could think straight.“She’s here.”All three of them nod.“I’m not crazy?”“No. You are right.” Rex’s brow furrows. “Somehow, she is alive.”“Or sh

    Rex“Elsa, Kyra is dead. I killed her myself.”“You’re wrong!” She snaps at me as she tries to look around me.“Elsa, I broke her neck. She couldn’t have survived that. Humans don't survive that.”Her eyes are wide. “I know what I saw.”“I know. But it’s just your mind playing tricks on you after everything you have been through.”“Tricks?”“You have been through a lot and it’s finally catching up with you.” I try to wrap my arms around her, but she shakes her head at me.“She survived once.” She mutters. “Someone saved her before.”“This time it’s different. You have to trust me.” I should have asked Rosa for some help before I left. Maybe a tonic or something that could have helped Elsa.Her eyes refocus on mine. The darkness slowly disappears until I see those beautiful baby blues.She gets back in the car. Her knee jiggles as we pull away. Her hands tie themselves up in knots.She keeps looking behind us.“There is no one there.” I rest my hand on her thigh and her knee stops jigg
