  I walk into the living room to watch a little TV. I sit on the couch and I can’t bring myself to turn it on. Maybe I will take a nap since there has been so much going on. I haven’t had much sleep here lately, I could certainly use it. I lay on my side and I feel a blanket being pulled up over my shoulders. Thank you Lance, I think I could get used to you being around. I close my eyes and fall fast asleep.

  I am dreaming that I am being chased by a large black wolf. It must be Tristan coming for me, except his eyes are red and he is growling at me. “It is me Tristan I have decided to join you as your mate”, I replied. I hear this laughter and it seems to be coming from the black wolf that looks like Tristan. The wolf walk closer and then I can see the bones realigning and snapping into place as the fur recedes off of the bones. The wolf changes back into its human form that is Tara. She is standing their perfectly naked in all her glory with nothing to be ashamed of. I see that condescending smile she gave me during that confrontation with Tristan. “He will not be yours human bitch. He will always want me for I am a true wolf in every sense of the word. I am alpha to his alpha,” replied Tara. That’s funny considering he marked me and not you Tara. She lunges at me and I am startled awake by someone trying to get into my door. I hear my door knob being turned. I shake my head and try to clear the images of Tara from my mind. As I stand to walk to my door, the door comes crashing down and there are two big men grabbing me and tying my hands behind my back. One of the men puts tape across my mouth and throws me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. What is it with people throwing me over their shoulders? Now I am really getting pissed. I have been kidnapped two times in a matter of two days. I am not amused by any of this and am tired of playing these games. They toss me into a car and throw a pillow case over my head so I don’t know where I am going.

  Lance transports himself back to The Black Mountain Pack and goes in search of Tristan. He must tell Tristan what has happen to Ava. He runs into Lily and she places a hand over his throat where he is able to talk. What is it brother? Ava has been taken by some of the scouts in the Appalachian Pack. Oh my Lance, we must find Tristan and tell him what has happened. I am glad you want to speak now brother; it has been years since I have heard your voice. Ava is the one Lily, the one to make the pack whole and bring on a new generation of werewolves. We must not interfere with her decision brother; it has to be her own choice so that history doesn’t repeat itself. Lance and Lily go in search of Tristan but he is not anywhere to be found. They walk outside and head for the workshop behind the mansion. That is his favorite place to be. They walk in and find Tristan under the truck changing the oil. Sire, we have urgent and disturbing news for you. Tristan jumps out from under the truck and walks over to Lily. What is it Lily? Ava has been kidnapped be the Appalachian Pack. Lance went along when you took Ava home and stayed with her. While she was napping someone tried to open her front door, the two scouts from their pack kidnapped her and threw her in a car and drove off. Lance got back here as soon as possible to tell me what had happened. Lance I am glad you were with her even though we are going to discuss why you were with her. Sire he was only there to protect the girl. I know it’s just my mated side coming out. I must go and get Zane and Christian to help me rescue my mate.

  Chapter 5

  It feels like we have been driving for hours. My arms are sore and I am so uncomfortable from lying in this same position. I need to stretch my legs out but I can’t due to all the stuff in this car. I know how a sardine feels now. I feel the car stop and hear the car doors open. Someone comes over to my side of the car and opens the door then drags me out of the seat by my hair. The one holding me up pulls the pillow case off of my head. It is night time now and it is hard to make out all of the faces around me. Welcome Ava, it is nice to finally meet the mate of our enemy, my name is Michael. Your mate is holding up progress for our kind. We have different views of how things should work. I believe that we as werewolves are superior and should not hide in the shadows like dogs at the feet of humans. I believe that humans should fear us and we should turn more humans to wolves for our cause. Tristan says that will go against Pack law. “We are pack law”, he replied. “I am not mated to Tristan,” replied Ava. No, but he has given you the mating mark and that is as good as mated in my book. He will come looking for you and when he does we will be waiting. How do you know all of this Michael? We have our spies everywhere. Out the corner of my eye I see someone walking closer to me. It is Tara, that bitch is a traitor. Tristan is going to kill you Tara. “He is not half the wolf that Michael is. Tristan is weak to choose a human as his mate. He ruins our line with weak human trash,” replied Tara. “That’s funny considering you were just telling him that you were going to be his mate,” replied Ava. Tara walks over and slaps Ava in the face. We must all play the game Ava. She reaches over and grabs Michael’s cock and starts stroking it there in front of everyone. He grabs her hand and tells her that this is not the time or place for this. She giggles and saunters off into the shadows of the night. I am in so much trouble and I don’t know how to fix it. Michael grabs be by my arm and drags me into a cabin not far from where we are standing. It is very plain looking and small. They are like the cabins that you would rent for the summer. All the furniture is made out of wood and the floors are hardwoods as well. There are no special touches around the cabin. Michael pushes me into a chair and walks over to a bar and pulls out some vodka from underneath it.

  Tristan called a meeting with Zane and Christian about what has happened to Ava. It has been hours since the news of her capture. One of Zachery’s little girls comes running into the room crying and screaming for Tristan. Zachery is one of the original wolves from when Tristan’s father was alpha. What’s wrong Emma? There are wolves from another pack killing our people. They killed my papa. She is crying so loud you can hardly understand her. I ran here as fast as I could. I am so scared Tristan, please help us. Tristan and the other guys run to the front door and find Tara lying on the ground bleeding from several wounds. Tristan runs over to her and checks her injuries. What has happened Tara? “We were ambushed by the Appalachian wolves. I was out scouting and I didn’t see them coming. They had killed Zachery before I could act and that’s when they double teamed me and left me for dead,” replied Tara. “I want everyone here to check on every single member of this pack. I want to know about casualties and injuries as soon as possible”, replied Tristan.

  Back at the Appalachian Pack, Michael is getting more intoxicated as time goes by. “You know that Tara is only using you to become the lead alpha bitch don’t you Michael”, replied Ava. “That is of no concern to me. What I do know is that right now Tara and some of my scouts are out killing some members of Tristan’s pack. My scouts then are going to brutally attack Tara and make it look like she had nothing to do with it to gain Tristan’s trust. We will have him right where we want him,” replied Michael.

  Tristan has Zane to pick up Tara and take her into the house. He lays her on the couch and turns to walk away. He over hears Tara’s thoughts. It has never happened before. She has always shielded well where he is concerned and has never heard anything from her. She is thinking that the human bitch is going to get what is coming to her and once she gets Tristan to kill Michael she can be alpha to his alpha then she’ll never have to fuck Michael again. Zane leaves the room and doesn’t say anything to Tara about what he has learned. He is going to discuss his finding with Tristan and see what he wants to do about it. Zane comes up to Tristan and takes him to the side and explains what he has overheard from Tara. Tristan is so mad he’s growling and squeezing his fists tighter and tighter. “I am going to kill that lying bitch”, replied Tristan. Hold on a minute alpha, I have a plan that just might work, replied Zane. “It better be good because if not that bitch is dead”, replied Tristan. We need to play along to gain Tara’s trust so we can make her think that the human was a mistake. You will need to convince her that you want her to be your mate that way she will slip up and
take us to where Ava is,” replied Zane. “I don’t know if I can do this Zane. I want to rip her head off for hurting my mate”, replied Tristan. I know man; I would feel the same way if I had a mate that was endangered. She will be a good mate for you Tristan, replied Zane. We head back into the house and walk over to Tara. How are you feeling now Tara, replied Tristan? “I feel really bad. I am sorry that I made you mad earlier”, replied Tara. Do you know that someone kidnapped Ava, replied Tristan? Oh my goodness Tristan, I am so sorry. I had no idea something like this has happened. I am here for you if you need me,” replied Tara. I will take you upstairs and let yet you rest on my bed Tara. I almost lost you and I will not let anything happen to you. I can’t believe I tossed you away for a human that has nothing that you can’t give me. It is like my eyes have been opened for the first time. I hope who ever has Ava gets rid of her so I do not have to deal with the mess I have created,” replied Tristan. “I am glad you are finally coming to your senses my love, now take me upstairs and show me how sorry you are”, replied Tara. “It will have to wait Tara until I am back to full strength. I want to be able to show you how sorry I am,” replied Tristan. “I am willing to wait Tristan. I know how good you can give it when you are at your best”, replied Tara.

  Chapter 6

  It has been hours since I have arrived here at the Appalachian Pack. I have got to find a way to get free of the restraints on my hands. Michael I really need to go to the bathroom. “I know this is a ploy for you to get free Ava. This is not my first abduction human,” replied Michael. “I will not attempt to run away, I really need to relieve myself and I can’t do it with my hands tied behind my back. Plus, everyone here is a werewolf. Do you really think I could escape with me being just a human female,” she replied. I am glad we understand each other Ava. I wouldn’t think twice about taking you for myself. I love the thrill of a good hunt and you are enticing enough that I hope you try to run,” replied Michael. I am the mate of Tristan if you have already forgotten,” replied Ava. “I do not follow all of the bullshit pack laws. Those laws were made up of weak alphas in the hopes of controlling our kind. I do not believe that you are to be mated to one female for the remainder of your life. I feel I should be able to have as many bitches as I would like. I do not feel that the leadership of the pack is to only be handed down to the alphas son. My father was a beta to the alpha of our pack and he was a better leader than our alpha. The strongest shall be alpha. We used to fight to the death for leadership of the packs that way no one could challenge you if they were not worthy of ruling. We will return to the old ways and dominate the humans in return. Tristan is no alpha so I will take his pack and combine it with my own to rule this area with strength and fear”, replied Michael. He pulls me out of the chair by my arm and rips the ties loose from my hands. He drags me to the bathroom and stands in the doorway. You have five minutes to do what is needed. If I have to come in there you will not like what I have planned for you. Better yet I may have to make you my human bitch sex slave. I could link us together through blood and sex and Tristan would be helpless to do anything about it since you have not accepted him as your mate. I can use his own pack laws against him to take his mate. I go into the bathroom and try to get my head straight. I look in the cabinets to see if I can find anything that will be useful. I look into the medicine cabinet and find a bottle of sleeping pills. It doesn’t look like it belongs to Michael. I pour all of the pills into my hand so I can put them into my jean pocket. I run my hands down the front of my pockets and notice that my phone is in my other pocket. Holy shit, is this my luck or what? I keep my phone on vibrate because I work at the hospital and don’t want to disturb anyone. I open it up and look for Tristan’s number that he gave me before he left my house. I dial it and pray that Michael gives me time to make my call before he knocks the door down. The phone is ringing. Oh please pick up your phone Tristan. After another moment a woman’s voice comes on the line and answers Tristan’s phone. Who is this I said to the female on the other line? “Oh hello Ava, were you looking for Tristan? We have been getting along so well since you have been gone. I am here lying in his bed waiting for him to return,” replied the female. Is this Tara? You bitch, you cannot have Tristan. Once he finds out what you have been up to he will kill you. I am going to tell him everything starting with having me kidnapped by the Appalachian Pack, to sleeping with the enemy to become lead alpha bitch,” replied Ava. “Oh you scare me Ava. No one is going to believe you considering they won’t be able to find you. By that time I will be alpha to Tristan’s alpha and there is nothing that you can do about it,” replied Tara. He will never have you Tara. I beg to differ with you Ava. Would you like to ask him yourself? The panic is welling up in my stomach at her words. I hear a man come onto the line. Ava I am no longer interested in being your mate. I am glad we did not finish the complete mating ritual. I would have never marked you if I hadn’t have been as sick as I was. It was a great mistake that I plan to amend. I renounce every biting you. You will never be pack or werewolf. You are a disgrace to our kind. I hope you have fun where ever you are,” replied Tristan. “You don’t mean any of this Tristan. You told me that you would always be my mate and that you would always look out for me. You told me that you would never let anyone hurt me. Michael is going to mark me as his own. I thought you cared about me,” replied Ava. “You were wrong Ava. I could never love a human. I was just playing with you to get what I want. The only good reason to have a human around is for fucking and we have done that so I am done,” replied Tristan. I hang up the phone and start crying uncontrollably. I am a fool. I can’t believe I actually considered being his mate. I am the biggest idiot in the world. Now I have to find a way to get out of this mess before I become someone’s mate or worse dead.

  Tristan hangs up the phone after talking to Ava. He looks at Tara and tries to keep his composure so that she will not see how he really feels. Tara I told you I was done with that human bitch,” replied Tristan. “I didn’t believe you when you said it but now hearing what you said to her on the phone, I believe you. You will not regret this Tristan. I am going to be the best mate for you. I am alpha to your alpha,” replied Tara. “We have so many plans to make. First we need to get rid of Michael so we can combine his pack with our pack. We will be unstoppable. After the union of the packs we can let ourselves be known by the human population and show them who are superior. We will show them what we can do. I must make plans to rid us of Michael”, replied Tara. You rest my dear and I will see you later,” replied Tristan. “I have rested enough my alpha, I need some attention that only you can give me,” replied Tara. “We have all the time in the world for that Tara. Right now we must prepare for the upcoming battle with the Appalachian pack,” replied Tristan. He walks out of his bedroom as fast as he could and makes it outside before he breaks down. He heads for his work building behind the Manson. He walks in and collapses onto the floor in tears. He hears a soft voice and looks up. It is Lily. I did not mean to disturb you my sire but I felt your pain and anguish. As a protector I am linked to you and your kind. I cannot interfere in any decision you may make or persuade you to do anything. I can tell you to follow your heart and do what you feel is best for your pack. You were bread from special genes. I knew your father before you were born. He was always plagued by decisions on what was right and wrong. I gave him the same advice that I am giving you today. You are the answer to your races salvation. You will bring on a change for all of your kind and mankind. This situation is so much bigger than all of us,” replied Lily. “I don’t know if I am doing the right thing. I have just hurt the only woman I have ever loved. I want to do the right thing but I do not want to sacrifice the lives of my pack to do it,” replied Tristan. If you lead they will follow Tristan. Your people believe in you and now it is time to believe in yourself,” replied Lily. Thank you Lily for all of your words of wisdom, I will not let you down. I will make everyone proud to be a member of this pack.
