“GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY OFFICE NOW.” I roared at her, vile was building in my stomach. I would kill her. How fucking dare she do is. How the hell did she even get into my office? Helga got up to see who I was talking to. She looked like she might faint, but what she did next surprised even. She pushed past me and grabbed Katie by the throat.“How dare you sneak into Alpha’s office and dress like the slut you are? He has a mate now and if she was here and caught you. Goddess help you Katie.” She hissed at Katie, whilst Katie was clawing at her hands to let her throat go. After a second she throw her to the ground. Katie grabbed her robe and ran out of the office before I could do anything else.“Fuck, I am so sorry, Alpha. I didn’t know. She must have snuck in when I wasn’t here.” She spoke really fast. I placed my hand on her shoulder.“Thank you Helga, for what you just did. I know you would have never have let her in.” I gave her shoulder a squeeze, she gave me a nod, then walked ou
Darius POV“Ok.” She pulled me out of the room, because there was so much to do and I was feeling guilty I hadn’t told everyone yet. Dinner was going to be delivered soon. Everyone was looking at Ethan and Ava like they wanted to kill him. They needed to understand about everything. We couldn’t be divided, especially now, we would be stronger united.“There are things that have happened you all need to know about. Now that you're awake, Ethan, it will make it easier with a plan of attack.” This had their attention. I motioned for them all to sit at the table, which they did.“This entire time, we have been looking into and paying attention to the omega attacks, but I think this has been a distraction. I had a prisoner that just showed up and I now know is the mate of the rogue king planted here as a spy. The things she has done are unspeakable. She is Jocelyn’s birth mother. She was the Luna of the Berserkr Night M
Jocelyn’s POVThe scars that lined Xavier’s back were the hardest. It seemed like his skin had been torn apart. The mental scars these scars left on him ran so deep I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to heal him.“Athena, I need your help.” I whispered to her.“Jos, they run deep. If we take them, they will not only scar us mentally as well, but it will be physical.” She whispered as well. She was crying from the pain Xavier had suffered.“We have to Athena. I know we have to do this.” As I told her this, the memories he held of what happened entered our mind. So much pain because he wouldn’t give his sister up. She doesn’t know he suffered this because of him. The claws ripped through my back. Screaming, I fall to my knees, but I wasn’t done yet, they others approached me but I shook my head no. Instead, they gave me their strength, but it meant they would all bear some sort of
Josie’s POV“Darius, what about Jess?” The question had been eating me up since I had let the others become part of the bond. I was sitting on the bed as Darius was finishing a few things on the computer. I would be his tonight and he would be mine, but I wanted a clear mind of everything first.“I don’t know. I can honestly say this is the one time I am unsure of Jess and her motives. We need to go and see Jolon first before anything is decided, but I want to do one thing first.” He wriggled his brows at me. I almost forgot about Jolon, with everything that had just happened. Wiggling my finger at him indicating he should come over to the bed, he stalked over to me slowly. “Are you sure you want to do this now, my little mate?” his voice was husky, making my core throb. After everything I had been through, my heart was telling me this was right and the timing was right. “I am Darius. After what happened to me, I didn’t know if I would ever be ready, but I have a feeling we need to
Darius’s POV Since, when could our mate show someone the memories of what had happened? Seems we didn’t know too much about her powers, but that was to be expected, I guess. It was hard to just sit there and watch her show Jolon and me not comfort her. But it was always her choice. I would never force her. She seemed to have a plan with Jolon. I trust her judgment. “We will only step in if something happens to our mate.” “I agree buddy.” Trying to calm my inner beast, because we both knew if he couldn’t stay calm, then how was I ever going to? Josie had placed her hand on my lap, rubbing little circles on my thigh with her thumb as if she could sense my tension, which if she could, then I needed to reel it in. “Jolon, do you think you will tell us your story?” She asked him in barely more than a whisper. I looked at Jolon, hoping that my old friend was still in there somewhere and he wasn’t too far gone, that we couldn’t bring him back. His face was full of sorrow, looking into he
The only thing that I had come to know these days was the pain inflicted on me daily by Alpha Than. As his slave, there was nothing that I could do. Every night for years, I prayed to the Moon Goddess that my mate would come and rescue me from this hell, but nothing happened. After a year, things got better. I was allowed to do more things. Night after night, the tears fall from my eyes until I stopped feeling anything. The night he finally took my virtue was the night that sealed the coldness in my heart.Until a few months ago, he had never touched me in any way like that. He would beat me, break my bones. I couldn’t recall how many times he had killed me. I was his play toy. No slave would last longer than a few weeks with him, but somehow I was different. Not understanding why, because I was only an omega and a beautiful one at that. Well, I used to be until he cut my hair and scarred nearly every inch of my body. At first, the punishments were easily a few whips, but then it turn
Chapter 2My normal place was beside my parents, but in my spot stood Beta Aiden, which wasn’t unusual. They killed his father in the last rogue attack on our village. He saved me from the king of rogues as he was about to take me. Beta Brendon saved me but was stabbed with a silver blade through the heart as I was finally able to shift and let Athena out. She killed three of the rogues as they escaped. She sat beside Beta Brendon howling as she felt him die, but the thing that always stuck with her was his last words to her.“Josie, honey, you must discover who are you. You are not the weak Omega like everyone has told you. The Lycan King has spies in the pack that are against you. If you don’t get to the Alpha King, they will kill you, honey.” I never told anyone what he said to me, not even Holly. Dad cleared his throat, calling attention to everyone.“Now, as you know, I need to announce my replacement as Alpha. That is why I have called you all here today to be witnesses for the
Ethan’s POV“Where are these slaves coming from?” I sighed, rubbing my temples. Nothing happened in my kingdom without me knowing, but somehow this was flying under the radar. Why couldn’t we find out who was behind? We got close a few times, but then the trace went cold. There had to be witches involved, but why?“I don’t know, dude. But if I pull another body out of the forest like that again.” Garret couldn’t finish his sentence. The man that sat before me felt just as broken as I did. Someone was dumping the bodies of omega slaves on the border of our kingdom. The state that we found the bodies in was the worst that we had seen.“We are missing something. Why are they getting dumped near the border? Is someone trying to start another war with the Lycans? I think we need to visit the Crescent Moon Pack again. I know they signed an alliance with the Lycan King but I have a feeling he is helping.” There was a knock at the door as my Gamma and Delta walked into the office.“How many t
