Alpha Code
Chapter Twenty-One

[Ra'ne's POV]

I was still in shock at the fact that I was carrying a pup. Skie was more than over excited about the whole thing. He was happy that we had finally found our Mate and that our reproductive organs still worked after being almost beaten and starved to death all of our lives.

Skie had been right. Grissa had been after his abilities. The ones to control the skies and seas. To be able to bend any Wolf to his will without being cruel to them. It had been the one thing Grissa had always wanted but the one thing we had never given him.

We both knew what Grissa would do if we had done what he told us to do and it would never had been anything good. Neither one of us had wanted that and because of our bloodline we had been able to fight off his own orders. It had only angered him into sending us into the pit for a week at a time. We had survived but just barely. He had fed us and let us heal but had killed the one that had used Healing abilities to heal us.

Luca had been someone who had been a brother to me in that hell. He had kept me safe from a lot of the beatings, making sure to keep me fed. He had said to me that he had been someone within my birth Pack but he had only survived because he had been out of the Territory when Grissa's Pack had come for everyone. He had tried to heal me with his magic like Arion does and Grissa's Beta had caught him and beheaded him right in front of me.

It was the worst day of my life and it was also the first time Grissa had hooked me to the electrical wires. I didn't sleep that weekend and by the time he had unhooked me I had almost died from passing out.

I was brought out of my dismal thoughts by the sudden feeling of warm sparks coming through my hands. I looked up into olive eyes and felt myself relax. Not realizing I had been so damn tense to begin with.

"Ra'ne," came Kin's soft timbre voice.

It sounded so wonderful to my ears. It always made me so happy to hear his voice call for me. I was full just by being next to him. I focused on him and shook my head a little. Making sure to focus on what was going on again.

I realized we were back in our room and in our bed. No wonder I was so damn comfortable.

"I'm sorry." I said, blushing crimson. I had not even noticed that we had even moved at all.

Kin chuckled a little and leaned over to kiss my forehead. "Don't worry my ember. I carried you so I knew you weren't going to get hurt. I just would like to know what has you so wrapped up that you are so far from me." he said his voice a little sad.

I looked at the ceiling for a moment before climbing onto his chest. I loved this Wolf and the feelings inside of me were growing for him with each day. I knew I would have to show him eventually. I had kept my life from him and it was just not fair to him. I wanted him to know me like I knew him.

[Callum's POV]

There was too much information to handle in my head at the moment. How in the hell were we going to protect Ra'ne from an entire world of Rouge Wolves and only Goddess knows what else?? The Were species had disappeared with the fall of their King and Queen. Without the protection the Sentinels offered other Weres such as the Werefox or Kitsune, died out. They had been hunted for their blood and the magic it held within. While most turned tail and ran like the Jackals and Hyenas, some like the Lions and Panthers stood to fight for their freedom but lost in massive casualties in the Wars.

No one has seen a Sentinel in over 35 years and now this little scrap of a Wolf shows up with Sentinel blood. A Shadow General to protect him and a Black Wolf Alpha for a Mate.

I smiled to myself. I couldn't wait to see what came out of this. I wanted to be right in the thick of it all. A front row seat to the downfall of the Rouges. That would be wonderful to watch.

I hadn't been exactly truthful with my Alpha when he came back. I had found my Mate. I had her to myself for three years. It had been when Kin had left to replace Ra'ne but was so far away to really pay attention. I was going to assume that was when he was with Solon traveling the world.

Her name was Astra and she had been everything to me. Her silver hair and striking blue eyes held so much love and kindness in them they humbled me every time she would look my way. I was a better Wolf with her around.

I had been running boarder patrol when we had been attacked by a group of 'Radical Rouges'. The ones even the Pack Rouges don't want. When I ran home to check on my Astra, she was missing. I searched for her when I felt the pain of her last breath. I ran for all I was worth to replace her lifeless body torn apart on a path that lead from the back of the house. She had tried to run to safety and I hadn't been there to save her.

I had let my Mate die.

I had never forgiven myself and now that my Alpha was back I had a duty to not just the Pack but to him and his own Mate. I felt a sense of peace at the thought. Despite having lost my own Mate, I could not bring myself to be jealous of my brother. Kin had faced his pain already.

He already died for ten years. Suffered beyond anything anyone really should have. I would get through anything just like he did and I would prove it to myself.

[Kin's POV]

I was looking at the little sprite of a Wolf that had perched himself on my chest with a curious look in my eyes. He was starting something I don't think he could handle at the moment. I brushed my fingertips across the Mark on his neck getting a shiver from him, followed by something that sounded like a purr. Damn he was so cute.

"Don't tease me Kin. I want to show you something." Ra'ne whined as he ground down on my growing erection, getting a growl from me.

I smiled wickedly at him, putting my hands on his waist and keeping him right where he was. "It's not my fault. You are the one that climbed on top of me my ember." I countered grinding up into him, our clothing blocking most of it.

"I can only show you if I use both my hands." Ra'ne said, rolling his eyes at me as he leaned forward to kiss me. "It's important, my love." he added getting me to stop my playfulness and focus on what he was trying to tell me.

"I'm listening." I said to him with a smile.

He giggled and placed his hands on either side of my head before suddenly flashes of places and events started to go past my vision. I could see Ra'ne as a small child being chased and caught. Thrown into a dirty basement with about a hundred other people. It changed again and again in rapid fashion but I could see everything. Every detail and every person.

Ra'ne was showing me what had really happened to him. What Grissa and Ironclaw had really done to him.

I was more than just in a fit of rage. I was more than pissed off. There were just no words to describe just how much rage, anger and hatred I had in me for Ironclaw.

When he pulled away from me, I could see the tears fresh on his face. I pulled him close to me and just held him against me. I would never let anything like that happen to him again and as for Grissa and his Pack. They were about to face a very pissed off Alpha.

One that had every reason to see them all dead.
