Desert Heat (Complete)

{Dorian’s P.O.V.}

“Whoa,” Allie said, and we all looked at the crowd before us. There had to be at least a hundred men and women. From within the crowd, C.J. appeared,

“What are you doing here?” I asked him.

“I came to help my other family,” he replied.

“C.J., what about Brittany?” Allied asked.

“She had her c-section two days ago, my mom is looking after her and Arlene,”

“Arlene?” we both ask

“The name we gave our daughter,” he said.

“Awww…” Allie swooned.

“Baby, not now,” I tell her. “C.J., you should be home with your family,”

“They’re in good hands. Besides, Brittany is the one that told me I should go,”

“She did!?” Allie exclaimed.

“Brittany and I owe our gratitude to you both for helping us find each other. We were already aligned because of Leah and Brandon, as well as the Murphy girls, but you helped me, another Alpha find his true mate, and for that, I owe you my life,” he said and bowed his head to Allie and me. I looked at the others and they didn’t know what to say either.

“C.J., how many people did you bring with you?” Allie asks.

“I brought all of my warriors and fighters,”

“WHAT?!” we all exclaimed.

“I would also like to introduce you to my new Beta,” he looked back, and a guy around our age stepped forward. “This is Gene, he and I grew up together. He’s a few years younger than I am, but after seeing how responsible he is, he skills in fighting, and his amazing ethics, I decided to name him Beta,”

“Alpha, Luna, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Lucas,” It is an honor to meet you. “Beta Brandon, I hope that you and I can work closely together. I would love to learn from you,”

“Beta Gene, it would be an honor to work with you and show you the ropes,” Brandon said.

“Hmph,” I looked down at Allie who has her finger to the chin.

“Allie?” she just smiles. “Seriously?”

“We can talk about that later,” she says. I was about to say something when people started to scream.

“BEARS!”

“NO ONE PANIC!” Allie screams. “They’re with us!” everyone looked at Allie and then made a path for the bears. Two bears led the way with about a dozen behind them. One of them was huge and the other was smaller but still fairly large.

“Uhhh… I figure the big one is Bryce, but who’s the small one?” Brandon says.

“Siobhan!?” Allie exclaims. The bears all change back into human form, and sure enough, the other bear was Allie’s friend Siobhan. “Get her something to cover up in!” Allie commanded

“No need, Allie girl,” Siobhan told her.

“Allie, we will not be staying in human form long. We came to offer assistance as promised.” Bryce said.

“Allie, we brought a lot of friends as you can see,” Siobhan added.

“Where did you find all these bears?” I ask Bryce.

“Some work for Mr. Kane at his various clubs, the others are friends and family members. They are just as grateful to Allie as I am that I was able to find my partner. Although bears are independent, we do believe in finding allies wherever we can. Every bear here is willing to have an alliance with your pack, in exchange for their help in this war,” Bryce said. I look down at Allie who is just smiling. I look at the others and they nod in agreement. I look at Bryce and put out my hand.

“I, Dorian Shaw, Alpha of the Desert Moon pack, hereby offer my alliance with the werebears standing before me and my Luna, Allison Shaw,”

“ALPHA!!” I heard one of the guards from the territory running to us. “Alpha, one of the bounty hunters received a tip that a convoy is heading this way. There were rogue wolves running around mountainside as well,”

“That as to be Tucker!” Brandon said. I nodded in agreement.

“Mr. Shaw, the bears and I will surround the territory and stay hidden until it is time,” Bryce said. All the bears shifted and took off.

“Allie, remember what I told you,”

“I know Dorian, I promise to stay hidden,” I pulled her into a k**s, and she went back inside. Once she was safely back inside, I started to give out orders,

“C.J., you and your pack follow the bears and stay hidden along the mountainside,”

“Let’s move out!” C.J. ordered his pack.

“Mikey gather the bounty hunters and have them hideout through the townhouses,” he nodded and went inside to gather all of the bounty hunters that were already waiting. “Lucas, order all of the snipers to take their positions. Perch them everywhere! Silver nitrate bullets only!”

“Yes, Alpha!”

“Brandon, get every fighter out here, and ready to go!” He nodded his head and his eyes clouded over.

“Andre, go find Dani, and make sure she’s ready to get started,” he nods his head and goes inside to find her. Once everyone has their orders, I head back in and see that Allie has taken charge and is getting all of the elderly, women who aren’t battle-trained, and pups into all of the panic rooms. Sin, Leah, and other omegas are gathering extra food and water for the rooms. Our mothers and the nannies have all of the pups

“Mom!” I stop my mother who has Daisy and the nanny has that Demarco. I take one at a time, giving them hugs and k****s. I k**s my mother’s cheek and send her to the panic room. I thought it would look like a madhouse, but Allie and the others are doing an amazing job keeping everyone from panicking.

Once everyone is situated, the only people left are Allie, Sin, Leah, and Sam. After a minute or two, all the guys come back in and Andre comes down the stairs with Dani.

“This is it,” Mikey says.

“Michael Rays, your a*s better come back alive! You have a son to raise!” Sin says while poking him in the chest. Mikey hugs her as tight as he can.

“Sam, protect the Luna but stay safe. If anything happens to me, Keegan will need his mother,”

“Shut the f**k up Lucas, you better stay alive, otherwise I’m going revive you just kill your a*s all over again,”

“Sweetcheeks, we have a better chance at surviving because you saw what was coming,”

“Brandon, you better come back to Sawyer and me. I will never forgive you if you leave us!”

“Dani, remember, you stay my side, or with one the ranked members and Lucas. Do not deviate from the plan,”

“I understand Andre. I promise I will stay close by,”

“Allie,”

“Dorian,” She ran into my arms and I scooped her up. “You.stay.alive, do you hear me, Dorian Shaw? If you die, I die,” she says with a broken voice. I held her tight and was about to answer when Allie started to shift in my arms.

“What the f**k!?” I put her down and saw that all Leah and Sin were shifting as well.

“Why are they shifting!?” Brandon asked

“I have no idea!” Mikey replied.

“Allie! What are you doing!?” It was too late; Allie was mid-shift and couldn’t respond until she was done.

{Allie’s P.O.V.}

As I held onto to Dorian, telling him that his a*s better stay alive, Mercury suddenly took over without notice and forced us to start shifting.

Mercury! Moh haneun guhyah!? (What are you doing!?)

Taking over!

Why!?

She didn’t answer. I could hear Dorian asking me what I was doing, but I couldn’t answer mid-shift. Once I was done, I looked around and saw that Venus and Jupiter were also present.

Sin! Leah! What the f**k!?

I don’t what happened! Venus just shoved me aside and forced me to shift!

Same! Jupiter just took over!

I looked at Dorian and I could tell he was confused but angrier than anything else. Dorian then mind linked me,

Allie! What are you doing?!

I didn’t do anything! It was Mercury! She took over! All of our wolves took over! We don’t know why!

Mercury! Why did you and others force the girls to shift!? He asked her.

Because we are meant to fight alongside you, my love.

Mercury!! What are you talking about!? Allie needs to stay hidden! She is the target!

Dorian, my sisters, and I are stronger than you realize. You will need us to take down Tucker and his pack.

Allie and the others are not fighters!

But we are! We are blessed by the mother goddess! We are stronger together! All six of us!

After she said, she let me take over again and we shifted back. Once I was back to human form, I saw that Leah and Sin were too. The three of us were stark naked so Sam and Dani brought blankets from the couch,

“Yo! What the f**k was that about!?” Sin said.

“What the hell!? Venus has never forced herself out that way!” Leah whined.

“All six of us?” I repeated. I looked around and she meant Dorian, Brandon, Mikey, Leah, Sin, and me. The six high ranking members. I just looked at Dorian was even more confused than before.

“ALLIE WHAT THE f**k!?” Dorian shouted. I just held up my hands because I had no idea either.

“My, your foul language will make my ears bleed dear boy,” came a voice. We all started to look around, and that is when I realized I wasn’t the only one who heard it.

“Selene?” I said. Sure enough, a burst of white light appeared in the living room and there stood Selene.

“What in the world?” Dani said.

“Dorian, is this who I think it is?” Andre asked. We all nodded.

“Who is that?” Dani asked.

“That is the moon goddess, Dani,” he replied. She made an O shape with her mouth and looked back at Selene.

“Selene, what are you doing here?” I asked her.

“Trying to keep the peace,” We all just looked at her. “Dorian, why are you trying to hide Allie and the others?”

“Are you really asking me that? Allie is my wife and the mother to our pups, she is also the target,”

“That does not answer my question,” she replied and just gave Dorian a stern look. “That is your reason as her husband, but what is your reason as an Alpha?” I looked at Dorian and he looked at me.

“Dorian?” I said waiting for an answer.

“Allie is not a trained fighter. She doesn’t know how to protect herself,” his answer made sense, but the way he said it, was almost insulting.

“So, you are saying that your reason for forcing her to hide is not just because you want to protect her but because she is weak?”

“I DIDN’T SAY THAT!” Dorian shouted

“But it is what was implied,” she replied. “Dorian, Brandon, and Mikey have you three forgotten that Allie, Leah, and Sin are blessed wolves with powers and abilities?”

“Of course, not!” All three said unison.

“You sure about that?” Selene’s tone was very condescending. “Allie has the ability to project l**t, Leah can see the future, and Sin can read the minds of other wolves when she is in wolf form. Why are you not using those abilities to your advantage?”

“Leah and Sin we get, but Allie’s ability to project l**t doesn’t help much,” Brandon said.

“Again, are you sure about that? Dorian, when Allie projects her l**t onto you in full force, how do you feel,?

“In one word, horny,” I press my lips together to keep myself from laughing.

“That’s because you are her mate. Allie, have you tried to project your l**t onto another man?” she asked me.

“What? No! Why would I?”

“Project it onto Brandon,” she said. I looked at her she like she was insane, and Leah looked like she wanted to rip her head off. “Just do it,” I look at Brandon and we both look back at Selene.

“Wait, but…” Leah protested.

“It’s okay Leah, just watch happens,” Selene says. I concentrate my l**t and I touch Brandon’s arm and project it in at full power. About two seconds later, Brandon starts to sway, completely losing his balance, and falls to the floor.

“Oh my god! Brandon!” Leah kneels next to him. “Allie, what did you do!?” I shrug my shoulders not knowing how to answer that because I had no idea.

“Sacré bleu! What the hell just happened?” Andre exclaimed.

“Gizmo, you knocked him out!” Mikey said. Sam went over and smacked Brandon across the face a few times and he came to.

“Whoa, what the f**k just happened? Why do I feel like I was kicked in the head by horse?” Brandon said trying to sit up.

“Selene, can you explain what we just witnessed?” Dorian asked.

“Allie, your ability to project l**t in a s****l manner only works on Dorian because he is your mate and your husband; however, when you use that ability on another man, you put them into a daze that completely discombobulates them,”

“Wait, are you saying that if I project my l**t onto another man that’s not Dorian, I scramble their brain?”

“Exactly,”

“So, even though the Luna can’t physically fight, the moment another man touches her, all she has to do project her ability and it will incapacitate them,”

“Leah’s ability to see the oncoming danger will allow her to tell us when someone is trying to surprise an attack and…” Brandon started to say

“…And Sin’s ability will allow her to tell us what Tucker and his pack are thinking,” Mikey concluded.

“Also, all of their powers will be amplified in their wolf forms as long as all three are near each other,” Selene said and suddenly vanished.

“That’s what Mercury meant when she said the six of us,” I said to no one in particular. Dorian looked like he was about to say something when Brandon’s eyes clouded over.

“s**t, they’re here, Tucker wants to talk,” he said. Dorian and I looked at each other.

“Dorian, we need a decision and we need it now man!” Mikey said.

“BOSS!” Lucas shouted. Dorian was thinking and hard, but he needed to think fast.

“f**k! Allie, you will stay by me at all times do you hear me!?” I nod. “Sin and Leah, shift right now and stay by Mikey and Brandon!” they nod and start to shift.

“Allie!” Sam threw me a tank top and shorts. The more skin I exposed the better.

“Sam, you and the other fighters will stay here as planned!” Dorian told her.

“Yes, Alpha!”

As soon as I was done changing, I took Dorian’s hand we all went outside to face that diaper stain Tucker. As we are walking out, I am holding onto Dorian for dear life. I am holding his hand and holding onto his arm at the same time.

“Allie don’t be scared. I’m right here baby,” I nod my head and we keep going. In the clearing I can see Tucker, and next to him is Hank.

“Ah, look who decided to finally join us,” Tucker said referring to Dorian and me.

“Tucker, you’re a hard man to find,” Dorian tells him. Tucker looks at me and smiles. I break eye contact and hide my face behind Dorian’s arm.

“Aw, not happy to see me beautiful,” he says to me.

“Tucker! You will not address Allie, you will only address me,” Dorian snaps

“I’m not here for you Dorian Shaw. I’m here for her,” Tucker says. I give him a death glare and Dorian growls.

“Hank, you must really have a death wish. Siding with Tucker, escaping and then running right back to him. You’re even a bigger p***y than I thought,” Lucas says. Hank growls and Lucas growls back.

“Tell us, Hank! Why did you side with Tucker and betray your pack?” Mikey asked. This I had to hear.

“Simple, Tucker here offered me something I couldn’t refuse,” Hank replied. We all just looked at him waiting for him to continue. “Tucker offered me, Desert Moon, after he kills Dorian.” I gasp and look at him with disgust.

“You killed my baby because you want the pack!?” I sneered. My eyes go black. I never wanted someone dead so much before. Not even Devin or Jessica. Hank helped kill my baby because he wanted to be Alpha.

“All of this because you want to be Alpha? You’re just as insane as Tucker!” Brandon shouted and Venus snarled. Just then I got a mind link from Jupiter, and quickly hide my face again,

Gross! Tucker is fantasizing about you! Like, full-on fantasizing! I gag when she tells me that.

“This is your one and only warning Tucker, leave now or die,” Dorian says, and I could feel his body starting to tremble. Bandit was ready to go.

“Sorry, Dorian, but you’re the one who’s going to die, and then I’m going to claim that sexy wife of yours and kill your trash offspring!” Tucker shifted into his wolf lunged Dorian and me. Dorian shifted into Bandit catching Tucker’s lunge and knocking me over. All hell broke loose.

People started to shift into their wolves, while some stayed in human form. Even though I was supposed to stay by Dorian, that didn’t work out as planned, so Lucas and Andre came to my side and started to shield me. I watched as b***d started to spatter everywhere. Heads were being bitten off, gunfire was echoing, growls and roars filled the sky. I looked up and saw the full moon, just like Leah saw in her vision.

As I gazed at the moon, I was grabbed by one of Tucker’s men,

“LET GO!” I shouted.

“Allie!” Andre shouted. I immediately projected my l**t at full power and the assailant started to sway. As he let go, Andre came up behind him and snapped his neck. “Nice!” he said.

“Andre behind you!” I shouted. Andre was tackled to the ground.

“Luna, stay close!” Lucas shouted. I hold onto his shirt as he is fighting off one of Tucker’s men. The guy puts Lucas in a chokehold. I jump on his back, putting my hands around his neck and project in full force. He loosens his grip around Lucas and falls to his knees. I let go and Lucas snaps his neck. Immediately Lucas is tackled too. I was standing around trying to find someone to protect me but there was no one.

I can see Dani shimmering back and forth from spot to spot. Leah and Sin are fighting next to Brandon and Mikey.

Allie behind you! I heard Leah. I turn around and am knocked to the ground by Hank.

“Hank!”

“You banished my wife and pups you b***h!”

“You killed my pup!”

“Casey was innocent!”

“So was Lavender!”

“I don’t care that Tucker wants you alive, you’re going to die, along with Dorian!” Hank shifted into Hondo and I stand to my feet. Even if I were to shift, I couldn’t outrun him. Mercury was half his size.

“Hondo, please,” I beg, but he just licks his lips and snarls at me. “DORIAN!” I scream as Hondo gets ready to pounce on me, but before he can, he is tackled by a large black wolf, but with silver eyes. I’m watching as they fight,

“LUNA!”

“Apollo! Lucian! You made it!”

“Just in time too,” Apollo said. I look out and see wolves from all over coming in and various humans which had to be the bounty hunters. I feel the ground rumbling and hear loud roars that were not from wolves.

“Holy f**k! Where did the bears come from!?” Apollo shouts.

“They’re friends,” I tell them.

{Deacon’s P.O.V.}

“Let’s go!! Step on it!!” I yell at Apollo go to go faster. We were ten minutes away from Desert Moon and the full moon shone brightly in the sky.

“The car can’t go any faster! I’m flooring it!” he replies.

I was surprised to get a call from Dorian Shaw, Alpha of the Desert Moon pack. When he asked for my help for a war that was taking place tonight, I was skeptical, but then he explained what was going on and that the Luna was the target. The Luna was a kind person, who helped my brother’s and I see the lunatic my father was. She helped us learn the truth, about our birth and how our father killed our birth mother. He was a hypocrite and a disgraced Alpha for more than 20 years and yet made himself out to be this amazing leader.

When Shaw offered an alliance between our two packs in exchange for our help, I couldn’t refuse. My pack was strong but having an alliance with a pack like Desert Moon was more than good for business.

“Deacon, I see the territory! The fight has already started!” Apollo shouted.

“Pull over! We’ll go on foot from here! We can’t let the enemy know we’re coming!” he pulls the car over into the desert passing and we go on foot using our wolf speed. I jump over the territory wall and scan the field. There I saw the Luna by the main house being towered over by a man. I watched as he began to shift into his wolf,

“The Luna is trouble!” I shouted to my brothers. I shifted into my wolf Midnight and ran towards the Luna, my brothers following behind in human form. My other men shifted as well and jumped into the fight. Dorian said that his men and women would be outnumbered which would make it easier to determine who was part of his pack. Plus, he said that the enemy combatants were more than likely to be rogues. I made it through the clearing just as the wolf was about to pounce on the Luna.

I lunged at him and we rolled around a few times. I got his scent, but he wasn’t a rogue. It didn’t matter who he was, he was attacking the Luna, which meant he was the enemy. We both snarled at each other and circled one another. I sensed a little bit of fear in him, which meant he could sense that I was an Alpha. He was big, I had to give him that, but I was bigger. We were about to lunge again when the ground started to shake beneath us. Midnight lifted his head and we saw more wolves coming and bears.

At first, we thought these were more of the enemy’s men, but then I heard the Luna,

“They’re friends,”
