Alessio POV He woke to the sun shining through the windows. Rubbing the back of his hand over his eyes, wiping the sleep out of them, he sat up in the huge king-size bed. Emma was lying next to him, snoring softly. She still hadn’t woken up from the sedative, but it should be wearing off at any time. A low growl rumbled from his chest as he saw part of the mark on her neck, peeking out of the collar of her shirt. Soon it would be his mark on her neck instead. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and placed his bare feet on the cold wooden floor. He felt completely rested, he hadn’t slept this good in years. Today marked a new beginning for him and his pack. And his Queen. Today, they all began their new lives. He was excited to start the day, a feeling he hadn’t had in a long time. It felt good to feel something else besides anger and resentment. He still had those feelings, but they weren’t at the forefront anymore. He looked behind him at his sleeping Queen and he felt lik
Alessio POV “Don’t worry brother, they will pay for it. They wanted you to be their King so you would go to war for them. Then made ran us out of our home afterwards. They used us to fight a war that had nothing to do with us.” Sebastian said. “I wasn’t completely innocent. I let the power of being King go to my head. I liked the power of it.” Alessio said regretfully. “If they hadn’t involved us in their war, you would have never been King for it to go to your head.” Sebastian said. “It doesn’t matter, the past is the past and we can’t change it. All we can do now is look to our future.” Alessio said. Sebastian got up from his chair and walked over to Alessio and put his hand on Alessio’s shoulder. “Our future where we will be home.” Alessio covered Sebastian’s hand with his own. “Yes, we will be.” Alessio picked up his coffee and took a drink. As soon as he did, he spit it back out. Coffee spewed everywhere. It had gotten cold. “Glad I wasn’t still sitting in that cha
Alessio POV He stood on the rocks, watching the sun beginning to creep up over the horizon. Brilliant rays and hues of red and orange cascaded across the sky. Anger coursed through him. His blood was boiling. How did they not realize that she was pregnant before now? This changed everything. His whole plan was shot to shit now. The witch would be here at any moment. He needed her to take care of the problem, one way or another. He turned on his heel and headed towards the pier. He stood at the edge, watching the waves crashing against each other in the distance as the storm raged around them. The storm he felt inside of him, tearing him apart like he was a rickety wooden boat trying to weather a hurricane. On one side, it was calm, peaceful, bright. The other side was hell on earth. A storm that raged on for miles and miles with torrential rainfall that just left you cold and wet. A circle of light caught his attention. Small at first, growing bigger ever so slightly. His hear

Emma POV She is alpha by blood. And not just any Alpha, but a Highborn Alpha. Which means she was born to two alpha parents, and a long line of them at that. Highborn alphas were bigger and more powerful, pure Highborn alphas even more so, they also live longer than regular werewolves. A pure Highborn Alpha line is rare, only two lines of them remain, hers and another pack's Alpha. Every child born in a pure Highborn Alpha line has been born to two Alpha parents throughout the entire line. But as packs started disappearing, moving, or just being completely wiped out, Highborn Alphas were rare to be born. A lot of alphas found their mates that have a lower rank. Most alphas now are born to an alpha parent and a beta parent, or even a gamma parent. Her pack and the Silver Stone pack’s alpha were the last line of pure Highborn Alphas. Although there were two other packs that had Highborn Alphas, their line didn’t have all Highborns, so they weren’t pure. She was supposed to take over
Logan POV He was running late to the Alpha and Beta gathering at the Shadow Moon’s pack. His Beta was already there and had text him and told him the party was in full swing. Alpha David went all out on this party. He was to announce when he planned on letting his son, Dylan, take over as Alpha since his 19th birthday had already passed. Dylan had been sitting in on meetings the past few years, as was tradition, learning about how to be an Alpha. He seemed to be a good kid and Logan believed he would make a good Alpha, especially if he was anything like his dad. Alpha David had served his pack very well. Logan pulled up to the front gate and the guard let him pass. He pulled up to the four-story house, everything was lit up, there were garden lights in all the bushes, and lights lining the driveway. He got out of his car and made his way to the front door and rang the doorbell. A short, plump woman, who looks to be in her late forties, opened the door. “Alpha Logan, it’s good to
Emma POV Emma hung up the phone. She was hoping the phone call from Logan would have better news. She didn’t want to wait until her and Dylan’s 20th birthday to be with Logan. It was nine months away, that was too long. She paced back and forth in front of her bed, it was a nervous habit of hers, but she didn’t have any other way to work out her frustrations, so pacing would have to do. Logan said that he would try to talk to Dylan and see if there was anything that he could do to help. That wasn’t likely. Her phone chimed, it was Logan. She couldn’t help but smile, and she instantly felt calm. She sat down on the bed and opened the message. She was still having a little trouble trying to navigate working the phone, but she would practice with it. Get some sleep sweetheart. Don’t stress. I will figure things out. Goodnight, sweet dreams. Goodnight and sweet dreams. She plugged the phone up to the charger. She hoped that they could be together soon. She liked how she felt arou
Emma watched out of her bedroom window at the staff as they set up tables and chairs on the back lawn. She opened the window so she could smell the freshly cut grass, she loved that smell. The staff was getting everything prepared for Dylan’s shifting ceremony that was happening tonight. All the Alpha’s would gather in the back yard and eat, and once the moon was at its highest, they would watch Dylan shift for his first time. She was excited that she would get to see Logan, even if it was through her window. He would at least be close and she could see him in person. Logan had talked her through how to video chat, so they got to see each other and talk to each other through the phone, but it wasn’t enough. She wanted to touch him and hold him and kiss him. She couldn’t do that through the phone. But they did at least learn a lot about each other. He taught her a lot of things about the outside world that she hasn’t had a chance to experience yet. Logan told her that he was going
