The Alpha Killer

Alpha Talia Stillwater’s POV

La Crosse Pack House

By five in the morning, the transfusion was complete, our bags had been packed and we were in a car being driven to the airport. Erica was happy to go along, she was looking forward to going somewhere else. My families would both welcome her.

We left my motorcycle and Randall’s Jeep at the Pack. Alpha Clark said he would have some of the wolves who were heading down for the six-month exchange to Randall’s pack leave early and deliver it. Erica’s meager possessions were packed in there as well.

My pilots weren't happy to be woken in the middle of the night, but they were being paid well and did their jobs. The small executive jet was waiting for us at the hangar, and as soon as we loaded, he was taking off. On the ride down I filled Randall and Erica in on what had happened to me since I was kicked out of the Tomah pack. I held nothing back; I told them about taking Jarrod’s blood, the pain of the change, and the physical changes that resulted. “Since I am part vampire, I need you to become one as well or you will die,” I said. “I can’t bear to live without you.”

He took my hand and looked into my eyes, sitting across the narrow walkway between the seats on each side. “I would die for you, Talia. I’m not going to leave you, not if there is a way to keep going. After watching you fight, I’m kind of looking forward to it. You’re strong and deadly, and I figure this is my only chance to keep up with you.”

I squeezed his hand, touched by his words. “Questions about me are spreading, and soon we won’t be able to hide my hybrid nature any longer. The Werewolf Council will want me dead.”

“They already have a warrant out for you dead or alive,” Erica said. “What are they going to issue? A ‘Double Secret’ warrant?”

I laughed at the Animal House reference. “I mean it will cause the Council to want Randall dead as well.”

He shook his head. “You don’t get it. I’m your mate, so I’m already in danger as a way to get to you. At least this way, I have a better chance to fight my way out of it.”

“The change is incredibly painful, and not everyone makes it.”

“So is dying from vampire venom. Quit worrying, Talia. I want this. I want us. We’ll work out the rest later. My family won’t abandon me, and yours hasn’t either. Did Clark kick you out when he found out you were part vampire?” I shook my head no. “Mine won’t either. If we have to live on our own out on some island, just me and you and a couple little wamps running around in the yard, I’ll be happy.”

“Wamps?” Erica and I both looked at him funny.

“Werewolf and Vampire. Wamps. Chubby cheeked wamp boys and cute little pigtailed wampettes.” We all cracked up, and I relaxed with him. Suddenly, it didn’t seem so bad. “I want it all, baby. I want the dream with you.”

I unbuckled my belt now that we had leveled off and moved into his lap. He reclined the seat so I had more room, and we were soon kissing. “Hey, if you guys are joining the mile high club, give me a warning,” Erica said.

“You’ll find your man someday,” I said as I looked back at her. “And you always have a place with me. You’re my best friend, Erica. I love you so much.”

“Thanks. I think I’m going to take a nap, so TaliRan can have some private time. I totally ship you two.” She put her ear buds in and turned up the volume, looking out the window to give us some privacy.

It wasn’t like werewolves had issues with public sex. I pushed my jeans down and off, then straddled his hips. It didn’t hurt as I lowered myself onto his hard length, and I threw my head back with the pleasure. He pushed up my shirt, playing with my tits since I wasn’t wearing a bra. I unbuttoned his shirt, moving my hands over his chest as I started to ride him.

It was bliss.

Randall used his thumb to rub my clit as I rose up, then dropped down until he was pushing all the way in. A few minutes of this and I broke, shouting my release into his left hand as he covered it up. I collapsed down onto his chest, and we started kissing while he started moving within me again. He moved his hands down to cup my ass and held me as he drove up into me. Faster and faster he moved, making me explode again and this time he came with me. He held me tight as we came down, and I relaxed into his body.

He popped out, and I could feel the trail of fluids leaking out. I reached down with a hand and caught them. Bringing my fingers up, I licked it off my fingers as I looked into his eyes. “Mmmm… baby batter,” I said with a smile. He swiped a finger into me and brought it to my lips, and I sucked it off like it was a tiny cock. When I was clean, I got down on my knees and used my tongue to clean him up before he pulled his jeans back up. “I think I like being mated,” I said.

“I love it, and I love you.” I pulled my clothes back up and curled up in his lap, soon falling asleep.

Alpha Brent Meechum’s POV

Sulphur River Pack

I woke at six thirty by habit, and I was tired. All the disruptions last night made for poor sleep.

I looked over at my wife and my grandson, and a wave of love came over me. Tania had so much taken from her, but she was giving Bobby so much now that he had her. Her son was strong and loving, and I knew we all would love him as our own. I reached over and cupped Patty’s cheek with my hand. She fluttered her eyes open and relaxed into my hand. “Good morning, love,” I said.

She smiled as she looked down at the boy who was cuddled up to her chest. “It is a good morning. Cuddles are a good thing.”

“I’ll be back in a minute and take him so you can get up,” I said. “We have a lot to talk about this morning.” I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth, then came back out and dressed. Phillip was still tired, and he didn’t wake up when I took him in my arms and leaned his head into my shoulder. I carried him downstairs and into the kitchen, where Sally, Becky, Laura, Marge and Catherine were starting breakfast for the Pack.

“Good morning, Alpha,” Sally said as she brought me a coffee. “Who is this little guy?”

“My grandson Phillip,” I said. “Bobby found his mate, Tania, and this is her son.” She looked at me, she didn’t understand how she had a child but just found her mate. “All will be explained this morning after breakfast at a Pack meeting we need to have. “

“Well, breakfast will be ready in fifteen minutes,” she said. She set it down at my place at the big table, which sat thirty. Three more tables like this were in the room, and people started to fill the room as the smells of breakfast went through the big house. “Pack Meeting will follow breakfast at eight AM in the dining hall. All members not on duty are to attend.”

The back door opened, and I heard little feet running towards me. They stopped when the saw the sleeping boy in my arms. “Granpa, who dat?”

I looked down at my grandchildren and saw my sons and their mates following behind them. “This tired little boy is Phillip, he’s your new cousin,” I said to Austin, a brown-haired four-year-old. His cousin and partner-in-crime, five-year-old Sandy was a beautiful girl with curly blonde hair.

“Okay.” He took Sandy’s hand and they went into the play room to watch cartoons until breakfast. They would eat in another room under the supervision of the Omegas who ran the nursery and preschool.

“Let’s take this into my office. Denise, you too.” She looked up from where she was talking to her mother, who had just come down the stairs.

“I’ll bring coffee in for everyone, sir,” Sally said as Dallas picked up my cup for me. My office was on the main floor under my bedroom; my mate’s office as adjoining, there was a conference room on the other side of my office, and the Beta and Gamma had offices here too.

Dallas sat in a chair and pulled Vivian into his lap, they were Austin’s parents and the Beta heirs. Dusty took the chair by the window with his pregnant mate Kimberly. He was the Alpha heir; they had Sandy at home with them and their older daughter Opal was in college in Waco. Patty took Phillip from my arms and laid down with him on the couch. “I got a call from Randall last night, and you know Bobby and Tania arrived last night as well. We have a lot of good news. Bobby has brought his mate home, and is working on getting her to accept it. Randall mated last night.”

There were smiles all around, matings were always celebrated. Dusty was the only one holding back. “His mate is Talia Stillwater? The Alpha Killer?”

“Yes, and the new Alpha of the Copper Mountain Pack near Denver. Talia defeated Alpha Justin Heranus, the man who raped Talia and took her son Phillip from her, in the challenge circle.”

“Holy shit,” Dallas said.

“Yeah. The Council won’t like this, they want Talia dead,” Dusty said. “They aren’t going there, are they?”

I shook my head no. “Alpha Todd, the one who abducted Tania, fled his Pack before he was arrested. Talia and Randall are after him, plus the humans that held and abused Tania during her slavery. It’s a blood oath, it’s more important than the Pack.” They all understood that, and now that Tania was family, they wanted vengeance as well. “She won the Pack fair and square. I don’t want the Council handing it over to someone else. Randall and Talia may want it when her vow is over; Pack Alpha openings don’t come along often.”

“You want us to foster Alpha it?”

I laughed. “Pretty much.”

“I’m a little hesitant bringing my mate into a situation like this, Dad,” Dusty said. “Do we know what to expect?”

“The Alpha and Beta are dirty, and Talia executed two more warriors they brought to attack the La Crosse Pack when she took over. The survivors are returning, but part of the job is to find out which wolves were involved, and which are innocent.”

“How long?”

“I don’t know. It might be a few weeks, it could be permanent.”

“Then I’m out,” Dusty said. “I don’t want to take an Alpha spot in another Pack when I’m the heir to our Pack. Dallas and Vivian may never get another chance to be Alphas, and they are strong enough to do it.” Kimberly squeezed his hand and nodded. “It’s a great opportunity for them if they want it.”

Dallas looked at his mate, they were clearly linking, then he turned back and smiled. “Mountains? Ski resort? Heck yeah, we want it.” He hugged his mate, both of them beaming at the prospect of being Alphas. “Wait, who is our Beta going to be if Dusty isn’t going?”

“Terry Baldwin would be good,” Dusty said. Terry was the oldest son of our Pack Beta, Bear Baldwin, and was unmated. The extra Alpha sons had blocked his path to advancement here.

“Agreed. He needs the experience, and he gets a chance to look for his mate. Denise, how would you like to be Beta Female?”

She looked up at me, shocked. “Me?”

“Why not? You’re not doing anything else, and you’re strong enough for the position. You’ll get a chance to look for your mate as well.”

She looked over at Dallas and Vivian, who were both encouraging her to agree. “Why not? Vivian will need help keeping Dallas from getting a big head,” she said.

“Dallas, go talk to Terry. I want you guys on a plane to Denver this morning. Take charge of the Pack and start cleaning house.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Denise, you and Vivian need to pack what you’ll need for two weeks and take a car with you. We can send more if you need it.”

“Yes Dad.”

“Vivian, if you want to leave Austin with us until you’re sure it’s safe, we can take care of him,” Kimberly said. “We can always bring him up to you later.”

“I think that would be best, love. Just until we know what we have,” Dallas said. “In fact, I don’t want you two leaving for Colorado until Terry and I have a better idea of how the Pack is. Dad, I’d like to take a few others with, trusted warriors to watch our backs.”

“Pick two and take them.” I looked at my watch, it was time for breakfast. “Let’s eat, there’s a lot going on today.”

They got up and left, and Phillip yawned and looked at me from the couch. “Morning, Phillip,” I said.

“Hi Grandpa,” he said. “Bacon?”

Oh yeah, this kid would fit right in. I held my hand out. “Come on, let’s get you some food and introduce you to the other kids,” I said. Patty and I walked him out, settling him with the nannies, then we joined our Pack at breakfast.

Bobby and Tania didn’t come down, and he didn’t respond to my link so he was still asleep. I told Sally to have breakfast set aside for them. They were in the same bed and he was human now, so things were progressing nicely.

After breakfast, I walked into the lounge room and looked up on the projection TV we had set up, couches all around. “What’s this?”

“A buddy in the La Crosse Pack sent it to me,” one of my warriors said. “This was last night.” The video started with a man I recognized as Alpha Heranus being dragged up a road by two warriors. The room was filling with Pack members as the word spread and was packed by the time the fight started. No one said anything, we were all staring at the screen with our mouths open. It was brutal, dominant and effective.

“Shit, Randall is tapping THAT?” One of the warriors spoke up and was immediately silenced by my glare.

“That would be Randall’s mate and the current Alpha of the Copper Mountain Pack? I’d speak respectfully of her in the future, Thomas.” I hid a smirk as he lowered his head. “Come on, it’s time for the meeting.”

The dining room had been cleaned quickly and everyone found a seat or a place to stand. I told them everything I knew; about Tania’s kidnapping and slavery, Talia’s expulsion from her Pack, Randall and Bobby as their mates, and what it meant to our Pack. “This is the last time Tania’s ordeal will be spoken of unless she desires it. She’s human, she’s been badly abused, but she’s also family now and we will all support her. Understood?”

“Yes Alpha,” everyone replied.

“You all should know that our relations with the Werewolf Council are strained, to say the least. No Council members or their agents are allowed on Pack lands without my express permission. On the good side, the La Crosse Pack exchange wolves will start arriving tomorrow. Those of you wishing to escape the summer heat for Wisconsin next spring, get your applications in to the Luna. Questions?”

There were a few, then I dismissed them. I sent a text to Randall telling him what we were doing for Copper Mountain, then called the Chairman. “Talia Stillwater is now mated to my son, Randall Meechum. They have authorized my son Dallas and his mate Vivian to stand in as Alphas until they are able to take over themselves. Dallas is on his way there now, he will get a turnover from the Council enforcers and temporary leadership, then have them escorted off Pack grounds.”

“The Copper Mountain Pack is under Council control, Alpha Brent. You have no authority.”

“On the contrary, I saw the video of the challenge last night just like you must have. Talia is the Alpha, she already has been recognized as such by the warriors who attended the challenge, and it is the Council who has no business there. If you have any problems with this, take it up with the Alpha Killer. Now if you’ll excuse me, my new grandson wants to play catch with me.” I hung up the phone, grinning at being able to put that egotistical bastard in his place.

Even the Chairman of the Werewolf Council was scared of my daughter-in-law, and that amused me to no end.
