Filed To Story: Sorry Alpha I Am Wolfless Novel
Just after we brushed against each other, I felt the gentle pulsating heat of flame. I could tell that his wolf was engulfed in its flames, and without even needing to look down, I could sense the ice that had spread across my entire body.
The look in Phillip’s eyes told me he hadn’t been expecting this turn of events, and with the stunned looks on almost all the faces present, they were just as surprised. That’s fine let them be scared, this was a power only Joaquin and I had, he was the fire to my ice, and we will work together to eliminate the enemies.
I thought of the ice that I knew covered me, how it would engulf the man before me if I just sent it his way. Instinctively I howled, unleashing a massive blast of cold air that rushed toward the warlock. He tried to avoid it but was unable to fully get out of the way.
The blast caught the warlock on his left side. Consequently, the man was frozen in place with the ice slowly spreading across his body.
“What the hell is this?” The man screamed. “What did you do to me?”
“What? You don’t like fights where people might just be stronger than you?” Joaquin’s mocking tone did it’s job, infuriating the man as he struggled to get free.
Instead of aiming attacks at us, the warlock blasted at the ice holding him in place. He was freed. He was able to move but it wasn’t that simple. Just as I was about to aim another blast at him, the ice started spreading again, freezing him in place once more.
“No!” He ground out through his clenched teeth. “This can’t be.” He was fighting against his ice bindings, struggling to get free.
“Too cold for you?” Joaquin mocked him. “I can take care of that.” And as I watched I saw my mate throw his head back and prepared for a howl of his own. When he released that howl a ball of fire blasted from his throat and landed right in the middle of Phillip’s chest.
Immediately the frightened warlock began to scream. Cries of pain and fear were echoing around the room. I could still see his face through the flames that were quickly engulfing him, his eyes were wide and filled with terror.
I couldn’t listen to his shrieks a moment longer. The arrows I had readied were still floating around me, hovering in the air above my head. I sent a few his way, hitting major vital points, such as his heart, his throat, and between his eyes. The screams ceased instantly.
The other two warlocks were nearly finished off, distracted as they were by their friend’s demise. I took advantage of their inattention.
I sent the last of my arrows flying. Unleashing them all onto the remaining enemies was the quickest way to bring the battle to a close. And with the oddly satisfying THWUMP noises filling the air I smirked, their deaths were bringing me a sense of joy right now. Should I be worried about my sanity?
After the last arrow hit it’s target, the sound echoing momentarily, the room was then silent. No one said anything for a moment. Shock and awe was on the faces of all the people in the room as they stared at me.
No words were exchanged as far as I could hear, though that doesn’t mean that there hadn’t been silent, mental, communication between them. What I did see though was everyone, aside from those in my close circle, fall to their knees and bow to me.
“All hail Queen Riviana.” Every voice seemed to speak the words at the same time causing an eerie echo to spread throughout the hall.
“All hail my Queen.” Joaquin smirked at me as he came right up to my side and rubbed the side of his head against the top of mine. In an instant, his flames were extinguished and my ice disappeared.
Joaquin looked just as he had before, with one exception. He still had his defender mark, on his left shoulder and there was the power mark on his chest with the paw and crescent moon. But now, he also had a mark on his right shoulder that looked like a howling wolf. Seems like his howling fireball was now something special for him. But why was it on his right shoulder instead of his left?

“Is it over?” Shane asked apprehensively.
“I think so.” I told him.
“Stay on guard.” Joaquin ordered. “We must stay vigilant in case someone else shows up.”
“Agreed.” Noah added. The two of them had shifted back and were in human form, and consequently, were very naked.
“Noah, that’s not a sight I want to see.” I glared at him in my wolf form. “Can someone please either get robes for us all, or go get clothes from the caravan for us.”
“As you wish my queen.” I heard Gabriel’s voice answer my request.
“Someone keep the kids in the room, we’re not in any state for them to see us. And Gabriel, ask for Griffin and Juniper to come back with you.”
“Yes, milady.” Gabriel nodded and left the basement.
No sooner had we decided on what needed to be done then I saw Shawn running across the hall. The battle had only ended a minute prior, and the confusion of it all was finally settling. But the moment that Shawn had recovered from the shock he was running to the back of the hall, where Dietrich had been laying on the floor.
I watched on as Shawn ran to Dietrich’s side as fast as he could.
“Dietrich?” His voice was full of worry and fear and the look marring his face was so filled with emotion that it brought a tear to my eye instantly. “Dietrich?” He yelled again as he skidded to his knees.
Just as Shawn came to a stop, Dietrich sat up, a hand on his head indicating the pain he was feeling. As Dietrich raised his head to look at the man calling his name he smiled gently.
“Shawn.” The tender tone of voice and the happy smile Dietrich had when looking at his mate was enviable. Anyone, no everyone, would be happy to be looked at so lovingly.
“Liebling.” Shawn exclaimed in German, calling Dietrich his darling.
Once that word was spoken Shawn threw his arms around Dietrich’s neck and planted his lips on Dietrich’s mouth. The tender love that I could see from the two of them, the devotion that was in Shawn’s eyes, it was so innocent and pure. His actions shocked a few but it wasn’t a cause for concern. In truth it was just further proof that pure happiness awaits everyone when they find their mate.
Having wrapped his arms around Shawn’s waist Dietrich returned the kiss his mate had planted on him. The kiss started as innocent, sweet, and romantic. But soon, it morphed into something heated and full of passion for each other.
It wasn’t until Joaquin cleared his throat, the silence finally broken, that they separated and looked at the room around them. A look of triumph and happiness on Dietrich’s face and a look of embarrassment, as well as happiness, on Shawn’s.
