"If you can’t prove her claim she comes with me or you have to forfeit other women to satisfy my needs. Rules are rules so what little hot numbers should I take in her place." He laughs sadistically. But, he is right rules are rules. Cole marches over to the gaping women and looks over at Tiffany and drags his hand across her. Aleck is grabbing him by the throat, protecting what's his. Cole shrugs him off, with a smug look on his face. What am I going to do, he also chose Macy as well and Talen is going off the deep end. Then out of nowhere I hear my sweet little Pixie.
"NO COLE, STOP!!!!" She says and she don’t cower like she supposed to in front of an Alpha; and I know that Cole would take great pleasure in getting her to submit. The whole pack is watching her, it’s unbelievable of her to step up to him. She was radiant and she didn’t even know it.
“You leave them alone and take me instead. I will not let you break them and trade their lives for mine." That was what made my heart burst, she was willing to give her life to save two from our pack that she didn’t even know. That’s what would make her a great leader and why the vision for her to rule with me was so strong.
"NO Gabby, please don’t go with him." Aleck was pleading with her, even Tiffany was surprised by this. It was his guilt of admission that he had a weakness and cared for her. Cole was already pulling her to leave with him and I had to do it even if it meant I would lose her.
"Pixie please stop," I yelled, and she stopped and pushes Cole away from her. I quickly close the gap between us.
"Yes Drake," she says shivering, because she fears him.
"Come to me," I whisper in her ear only low enough for me to hear. My little Pixie we have to do this for you stay with me. You won’t understand it and I don’t have time to explain, you’re going to have to trust me. Close your eyes and don’t open them under any circumstances; what I am about to do is going to hurt a little bit and seem very strange. Please tell me yes you understand; and you trust me little Pixie.
"Yes Drake, please do what you need, I don’t want to go with him" she closes her eyes showing me that she understands and agrees. Pride swells in my chest for this woman, who trusts me enough to let me do as I wish with her, not understanding all the consequences.
"Drake this is bullshit man we both know you’re not going to bound yourself to one woman." Cole spits.
"Think about what you’re doing Drake she don’t realize what she's committing to" Talen says.
"Drake don’t make this mistake, you will ruin everything good about her. Her heart is not bound to you, it never has been.” Aleck says, I am wondering if he thinks it’s bound to him, boy was he wrong.
"Don’t you see there's no other way, we are fated, this is meant to be. We have all known about this for a while now. So everyone respect his wishes, he is Alpha after all.” Calin says, and
Maverick agrees with him, shaking his head as well.
I circle her and look at my pack realizing what this means. I have never wanted anything so much. It felt so right, it is my destiny after all. My grandmother’s vision coming to life right in front of me. True to her word she closes her eyes and she’s shaking like a leaf. I feel her nervousness but not fear, she was not afraid of me. I kiss her lips so soft and push my tongue down her mouth. I hear the commotion with Aleck and Ashley but the guys holds them back. Aleck is putting up the most fight, it takes eight of my men to hold him. After this is over, he will be held in the dungeon and whipped for his disobedience. Focusing at the task at hand, I kiss up her collar bone. Then I kiss across her neck and she runs her hands down my chest. A moan escapes her lips, this time pushing my emotions over the edge. It feels like electrical currents are sizzling over our bodies.
My little Pixie runs her hands in my hair and I kiss her hard. She surprises me by kissing my neck and running her hands all over me. Then I kiss her shoulder one more time and my teeth elongate. I bite into her shoulder, howls sound throughout the crowd. She flinched it was painful, I see tears running down her cheeks and blood dripping off her shoulder. Pixie still had her eyes closed, she stayed true to her word. I felt amazing, it was as if the magic was multiplied. It was the most pleasurable experience in my lifetime. I could see all her childhood memories and she could see all of mine. It played like a movie in our minds leading us to where we are now. As if it couldn’t get any better, I transformed into my wolf form, licking her wound. She seemed to stamp her seal of approval, when she started to giggle. Then she runs her hands on my wolf, and he is ecstatic. I hear her calling my name and I shift back quickly and she’s asking me a question.
"Can I open my eyes yet?" I was naked, heck no I was thinking.
"Well first let me tell you I am naked, if you wish to open your eyes you can, but don’t be shocked." I laugh and the guys are all laughing behind her but Aleck is nowhere to be seen. She opens her eyes and looks at me, liking what she sees I think, but being embarrassed she turns away. This made the guys laugh even harder. Whoops and hollers spread throughout the pack they knew what they witnessed was complete magic.
"She didn’t bite you back?" Cole says.
"She’s been marked Cole, care to witness it again?" I seethe.
"You got six months Drake and then she has to mark you to finish the binding," he smiles with no doubt in his eyes that it will happen. He walks to his truck gets in and then says "we will be seeing you Drake, good luck," he laughs.
I don’t give a shit about him I had to take my girl somewhere private and explain what had all transpired here. I pull her with me and I already see Ashley fast on my tail, cursing and crying like the child she is.
"Go on up to the room and I will be there shortly, to talk." I tell Gabby, I had to deal with Ashley one final time and this would be the last, because she was getting put in her place, today. Then I needed to find Aleck and take him to the dungeon and remind him who pack Alpha is.
Gabriella
The weirdest shit keeps happening, I was bit on the neck and licked by a dog. It felt like something out of Grimm’s Fairy Tales. I went back to the room as Drake suggested, and decided to get myself cleaned up. My neck was still sore where he bit me and my shirt was blood soaked through. I start to take my shirt off and suddenly I am pushed against the wall. Hands are running the length of my body and I am being kissed. The kiss is so hard and demanding. I smell the scent of honeysuckles. I open my eyes finding Aleck, his eyes meet mine and he kisses me again, but then break the kiss of abruptly.
"Gabby I can’t be without you,” he says.
I am trying to wrap my head around the situation, when he slides his hand to my bra strap, starting to gently pull. My breath hitches as he kissing my neck and nibbles on my collar bone down to my breast. I shake my head, to snap myself out of this, this is all wrong. Why now does he decide to romantically be with me when I start to let go and care about someone else? He just does not get to do that, I decide.
"That’s enough Aleck," I grab his hand and move it away from me and step back.
"I can’t watch you with another man, other than me Gabby" he says………especially not him.
"So it’s ok for you, but not me,” I say. I can’t believe he is trying to pull this stunt.
"You don’t understand everything, you will be bound to him forever if you bite him back, like he did you. I can’t let that happen, I am sorry but I love you too much to even think about letting you go." He says through labored breathing.
The next thing I feel is a sharp needle stick into my skin and everything was a blur. I can still hear Aleck talking but everything sounds so far away. He is saying soon we will be alone and safe and I will understand. That we can be together forever like we rightfully should be. Right before I black out I can hear myself scream Drake’s name from the top of my lungs, hoping he would hear me. Then everything goes pitch black……..
Aleck
I wasn’t about to let Gabby make the mistake of joining with Drake. She don’t realize how powerful she really is, and she is only being used. I have wait
ed far too long and have been patient with her enough. Desperate times call for desperate measures, I didn’t want to have to drug her; but there was no other way. When she wakes up to find that I am not who anyone thought I was she will hate me; but she will have to get over it.
My name is Prince Alexander Anders, Aleck for short. I derive from the oldest wolf pack known, the Anders Clan. We were banished for decades, because we used the true hearts Vessel for the wrong reasons. Our ancestors brought power and bloodshed across the United States using that magical power. The Prophecy showed Drake’s pack uniting a new fated heart; she was beautiful, but she was also dangerous. He had a reputation of being ruthless and ruling most of the pack territories since we were banished.
My father the king of the Anders Clan was given only a few years left to live, he was slowly dying of wolf poisoning. He presented me an opportunity to ascend to his position with more power than any clan known. We were being punished for our ancestors’ bad decisions. All he ever wanted was to reestablish our pack’s destiny. I will make him proud of the man I have become, the plan was working thus far.
I packed up and moved to Drake’s territory, under the guise of being a rogue wolf. Eventually he took me in his pack and later I arose to the status of Beta. I was only biding my time, studying my enemy, closely. Drake was an asshole and womanizer. From my observation he was not much of an Alpha. It was pathetic really he was more concerned with women than doing his job, keeping his pack safe. Although she thinks I am no different, because Tiffany. What she does not know is, that Tiffany was there to keep me satisfied. I know that makes me sound like an ass, but I had to work out my frustrations some way. Although it blew up in my face when Gabby caught me. Still I was a better Alpha and man then Drake, any day.
I was a Prince with a royal bloodline, my power was already stronger then Coles, or Drakes without the union of the Fated Heart. Keeping my friends close and enemies closer, I realized he knew nothing of his Fated Heart. I received word that she was finally located. I told Drake I had to leave to take care of something important. I never revealed what it was about. There were many impediments in my plans, I have to say, though. I didn’t think Drake would be there when I saved her from Cole. The plan initially was to take her back to Alaska with me where the rest of our pack is. If I had ran with her then, there was a possibility that we would not make it. I was strong enough to probably kill all six of them, but I wouldn’t gamble with Gabby’s life. Gabriella would have been left with him, allowing him to misuse the power from the joining and possibly abuse her. So, I decided to take her back to his pack and when the opportunity presented itself, to take her with me. Getting her to trust me has always been easy.
From the moment I found her and implanted myself in her life, things only got more complicated. I realized when I nicknamed her Gabby, that I was already lost. She only knows me as Aleck, never Alexander. I didn’t want her family to connect any dots, so I used my nickname. Everyone always called me Aleck in the pack anyways. Gabby to my surprise turned out to be a sweet girl that I ended up falling in love with. I never thought I would fall in love with her, that wasn’t part of the plan. When she finds out I am a prince and my plans are to marry her, she will despise me. Gabby can deny it all she wants; but we have a connection, and I know she feels it to. Once I mark her, and I take her virginity the power will be united to our pack once again. She loved me once and I am going to make damn sure that she loves me again. If Drake comes, there will be bloodshed and are packs will go to war. There’s not a sole on this earth that can take her away from me. They can try, but they won’t succeed. I am Alexander Anders of the Clan Anders and I am officially out of hiding.
