- Dimitri’s POV
Chapter 15 – Trouble
“SHE DID WHAT?” I yelled at my Gamma Alec who was
supposed to be watching Raven from the roof tops of the Plaka while she was at the festival.
We had suspected that she would be out again with her friends, getting herself into trouble. She certainly has a gift for finding trouble. The buyers for the humans would be arriving today and we wanted to make sure they were dead before they could leave
with the girls. Then we would pick the girls up and release them.

If we can hurt his business, by hurting his clients, we would be able to draw him out in the open and finally send him to hell.
Weeks of planning and it was all going to go to hell because of one little bird. She had broken into the building and would
probably be captured by that bastard.
I called Niko. “Yeah boss?” He answered.
“She went into the building, get her out.” I ordered.
“Fuck! The buyers and their guns just went into that building too.” He said and disconnected.
I knew my Beta Niko could handle it, but Dom wanted to rush
over to that side of Athens and help. I was at the northern docks waiting for Eros‘ boss to make a move on a big arms shipment. He was also buying large quantities of silver bullets, which are fatal to wolves.
With the festival going on, the police would be too busy with petty crime and crowd control. This is a perfect night for the mafia agenda. No one really knew who Eros worked for, but I
had a feeling deep in my gut exactly who it was. The last mafia boss was murdered ten years ago and this monster, the real beast
of Greece, is the head of the crime organization now.
The boat carrying the arms was docked and my Delta Spiro, was in the water attaching explosives to the boat. I waited and
watched until he was done and swam back. Spiro got in the car with me and my phone rang.
“Yes.” I answered.
“Niko has her. They’re on his bike and just left the Plaka.” Alec told me.
“Call the crew back to the pack house, Eros will be out hunting wolves tonight.” I ordered.
I pulled out of the marina and nodded my head at Spiro giving him the go ahead. He triggered the wireless detonator and the boat exploded at the dock. I looked in my rear view mirror and saw the raging inferno the boat
had become.
I knew that Niko would be heading home with Raven on the

back of the motorcycle. She was not going to be safe anywhere in the city. I could feel Dom getting excited to see
his mate
again. I wasn’t exactly sure what I was going to do with her either, it’s not like I really wanted a mate.
“We need our mate.” Dom huffed at me.
“Needing and wanting are two different things.” I snapped.
“Who will give Olympus Blood Moon an heir?” Dom nagged me. “I don’t need a mate. Odessa can give the pack an heit.”
We drove back in silence. I thought about how young and
foolish she was going into that building alone. She was Alpha born, probably from America and out to have a good time in
Greece. With a stubbornness like that, she no doubt was daddy’s spoiled princess.
“She’s got kefi.” Dom told me.
I mentally rolled my eyes at him. I’m not sure why he was so
soft about having a mate all of the sudden. Six years ago, I was involved with Heather, she was over the moon for me. I never
really dated anyone long term, but Heather was a favorite and I probably kept her around longer than I should. She was so in
love with me, she started telling people she was my mate. I
knew she wasn’t my mate and had planned to break it off with her that night.
When I got back to my office, a box had been delivered to me. It was a similar styrofoam box sent when my mother died. I
opened the box and found Heather’s decapitated head, just as my father had eight years prior with my mother. Rumors circulated
that I had killed my mate and my family was cursed. “Nothing is going to happen to our mate.” Dom said. “You’re right, nothing is. I’m going to send her back home, far away.” I told him and shut him out. /
We arrived back at the pack house and the patrols let me know that Niko had returned with a female. I could hear the chatter through the mind link as they entered pack territory. They
thought she was beautiful, they could sense her Alpha wolf and wondered who she was.
Spiro and I waited in the office for them to get here. Alec
walked in and started filling us in on the details at the Howling Dogs. All three buyers had been taken out and Eros was badly burned though we’re not sure how that happened.
I could hear Niko and her walking down the hall and approached my office door. I’m not sure how she will react when she finds
out I’m her mate. She can’t scent me and if we don’t touch she won’t know, but she’s an Alpha and her senses are stronger than most wolves. One look into my eyes and she will know.
I spun my chair around and looked towards Spiro who was
50
+25 BONUS
standing behind me. Spiro was the only mated wolf in the room with us and his mate disapproved of him masking. his scent. A mate’s scent is very important to a wolf, it had the power to
calm, excite and arouse.
As soon as she walked into the room her scent flirted with my nostrils. Dom was excited and it annoyed me.
“Have a seat.” Niko told her, and she sat in the chair before any desk.
I could feel her gaze on my arms. Alec stood smiling like a fool and mind linked us. “Oh yeah, she’s checking out the big bad
Alpha.”
“Why am I only scenting one wolf in a room with four wolves?” She asked with no hesitation.
“Because Spiro is pussy whipped.” Alec laughed through the mind link.
“She’s very observant.” Spiro said.
“Alpha don’t be rude, turn around and be nice.” Niko told me. “I am nice, I haven’t killed her yet.” I linked back.
“You couldn’t hurt your mate and she’s our Luna.” Niko said to me.
“Where am I? What’s the name of this pack?” She asked.
“I haven’t claimed her, she’s not the Luna.” I snapped back No one outside of this room knew that she was my mate. Niko, Alec and Spiro were my best friends since we were pups, they knew
how I felt about having a mate. It just wasn’t for me.

“I could just wait outside, give you more privacy, you know so you don’t have to mind link around me.” She said.
“SIT DOWN!” I heard myself growl. Where the hell was she going, she just got here.
“Don’t scare her.” Niko linked me.
“Not until you tell me what’s going on.” She sounded annoyed. “I’m the only reason you’re still alive and the only thing
standing between you and a very angry Greek mafia. I’m not even sure if I want you alive.” I told her.
“So much for not scaring her. I can feel her anxiety now.” Niko linked me with frustration in his voice.
“Can I at least use the restroom?” She asked Niko.
“Sure, it’s right this way.” He said and took her to the restroom outside my office. “You guys talk some sense into him.” Niko
linked us.
“You know boss, maybe you should just give her a chance. The Moon Goddess mates us for a reason.” Spiro said.
“She’s too young and impulsive.” I scowled.
“Look how happy Spiro and Adanna still are after four years together, that could be you.” Alec told us.
“Yeah, no thanks.” I said.
“Niko, what happened to the front of her costume, it was ripped?” Spiro asked through the link.

“What do you mean her costume was ripped? Did that bastard touch her?” I growled. I’m going to fucking kill him!
“Calm down, it was just a little rip, she could have done it
climbing in the window at the Howling Dogs.” Niko said. “You know, for someone who doesn’t want her, you sure
are
possessive over her.”
“What’s taking so long?” I asked. “I think she’s gone.” Nike said.
“What do you mean gone?” I stood up and moved across the room yanking the office door open.
“I–I think she went out the window.” Niko said.
“FUCK!” I kicked the restroom door open and the window was open. I looked down and her costume was laying on the ground. She had shifted.
I jumped out the window and shifted mid–air, I sniffed around and caught her scent north. I let out a howl and let my patrols
know to look for her. Dom was not about to let her get away and we took off running.
Where the hell did she think she was going? Eros was going to pump her full of silver and Athens would be
crawling with his thugs. Rogue wolves always went to go work for him or lived free on the islands. He was going to have every one of them
looking for her. We needed to keep her out of sight and prepare for a possible rogue attack. I may not want a mate, but I also
didn’t want to see her end up like Heather.
I could see a shadow of her raven black wolf; Dom was almost twice as big as her. He was enjoying the chase and pounced on her, no way she was going to escape him. He growled and she tried to run off again, he tried to push her down, but she fell
back into a tree.
She stood up and bared her teeth at me with her hackles raised. She thought she could take me, I suppressed a laugh and shifted back to human form. She looked like she was seriously
considering attacking me. “I will break you pup.” I told her.
That’s when I felt her eyes roaming my body. She was checking me out. I thought I saw a hint of lust in those beautiful blue
eyes. Dom let out a proud howl in my head when she couldn’t rip her eyes away from my cock.
“Like what you see?” I laughed.
She shifted back and what a beautiful naked sight she was. Dom growled possessively and the other wolves averted their eyes.
She held up a lighter, what was she going to do with a lighter?
“You shouldn’t play with fire little pup, you’ll burn yourself.” I joked.
“Come closer and you’ll be the one that gets burned.” She said threateningly and she flicked on a flame.

“I will kill you before you can even flinch,” I told her. Then she made the fire ju
near my feet. In a flash I used
my element to block it with the earth. She then held a big ball of flames in her hand, and I knew it wasn’t black magic. Her hand wasn’t
burning from her flame because she was elemental.
“You will let me leave and you will not chase after me.” She said.
“You’re elemental.” I meant to ask, but it just came out as statement.
“And I will not hesitate to use this.” She confirmed.
I shook the ground beneath her to distract her and smothered her fire with earth. Then I willed a rock to knock the lighter out of
her hand. When she bent down to retrieve it, I hit her with dirt in the eyes.
Her eyes were closed, and she was crouched down on the
ground. I pulled her up and when I touched her arm, my hand was tingling. We were still naked, and I fought the urge to pull her into me and kiss her all over.
Before I knew what happened, I leaned into her neck and
inhaled. I almost kissed her. Raven was trouble, she was young and impulsive, and she would try to escape again. If she had
continued running north passed Mount Olympus, she would have run into Eros‘ pack territory.
She must have set Eros on fire! Fuck!! She should have made
sure he was dead. Now it’s going to be personal for him and he will stop at nothing to get her. She doesn’t seem to have much control of her element and will probably set the pack house on fire.
Fuck, Fuck, FUCK! Only one place to put her until I know what to do with her and keep her safe. Dom knew what I was thinking and was getting angry with me.
“You can’t do that to our mate! Our job is to protect her.” He said.
“We are protecting her.” I told him. “GET HER A SHIRT AND TAKE HER TO A CELL!” I growled out.
