Book 3 of

The Patron, the Alphas Alpha

 

When you’re the top wolf on the continent with the backing of the Goddess, how does an enemy topple your kingdom? By challenging you to a fight? No. By changing the rules.

 

After three hundred years of fighting and service to the Goddess, Silas Knight is the Patron, Alpha to the Alphas on the North American continent. As the top wolf, he fears little and has seen most things. But when he discovers someone or something has been quietly disturbing the natural order of things, he’s surprised. Certain human women have the ability to birth fully functioning wolves, and that’s a major problem.

 

Jasmine Bennett has no idea her deceased husband was a wolf shifter or that her twin sons are shifters. Her life changes when she rushes to her son’s bedside after he’s wounded in Afghanistan and returned stateside. Now her life’s in danger because of her ability to give birth to a breed of beings she never knew existed.

 

After sending out a mating call which Silas answered, Jasmine’s pregnant and depressed. Her life has spiraled out of control. Silas is angry that his first “litter of pups” are half breeds. A group of human breeders offer her a chance to leave Silas, offering a strange brand of protection. When a human breeder enters the compound using a weapon the wolves are helpless against, Silas and Jasmine understand the true meaning of Birth Control. (Book two)

 

Silas is discovering what it means to have a family. Unfortunately it seems to clash at the worst times with running the wolf nation. Someone is literally throwing a series of challenges at him in an effort to remove him from office. Silas and Jasmine’s relationship is tested and the outcome was uncertain. With prophecies running rampant about the future of the wolf nation, and mysterious happenings, Silas and Jasmine are stumped by the BirthMarks on their sons.

 

This is the third book in the La Patron series. Book one is BirthRight, Book two is BirthControl and should be read first for a better understanding of this book.

 

Thanks Sydney

Chapter 1

 

Silas Knight, La Patron of every wolf on the North American continent and possibly a few others as well, walked the wide hallway outside his bedroom to avoid waking his mate, Jasmine. She was worn out from tending the children all day and he wanted her to have a few minutes of undisturbed rest. Her day had been as long as his, but whereas he spent the day running a nation of wolves, she spent the day with four pups whose needs and personalities were as different as the days of the week. He would gladly face the rebels or pouting Alphas than handle his feisty litter all day. She had remarked on more than one occasion that the pups had his arrogant gene, as if that were a bad thing.

He placed his bundle higher on his shoulder and patted his back gently. “It’s going to be okay, little one,” he whispered in an attempt to calm David’s whimpering. For some reason none of the doctors had been able to explain why the child was in a constant state of discomfort. Nothing calmed him for long.

“Is he going to be alright?” Tyrese, Jasmine’s older son, asked as he walked down the hall toward them. He was dressed in pressed jeans and a bright red short-sleeved polo. His highly polished boots made a clopping sound on the marble floors. He had allowed his hair to grow out from a military buzz cut, and it now brushed against his shoulder.

Silas nodded and flicked his gaze over the young pup again. “He’s fine, just having a hard time quieting down. Going out?”

“Yeah, a few of the guys and I are going to hit this new club in town. Supposedly it’s owned by a half-breed, I wanna check it out.”

Since Silas had approved the club owner’s petition to open a business in the state, he wasn’t surprised. In fact he’d heard the business venture had proven to be such a success, the owner had petitioned the Alpha of Georgia to open a club in Atlanta.

“There are still some rebels in the area. Be careful. Have fun.”

“I will. Always.” Tyrese nodded and walked to the elevator which would take him down to the tunnels. He would have to walk a good distance and then come up beneath the condo complex to pick up his car. It was safer and away from the main houses.

David whimpered a little and Silas returned his attention to his youngest male pup. “I’m sorry you’re not feeling well, but it’s going to be okay.” He started to hum and David quieted. Initially, Silas had thought to have the pup calmed in a few minutes, consequently pacing the quiet hall made sense. Now he realized he'd miscalculated and headed to the darkened nursery. He sat in one of the rocking chairs, continuing his soft serenade. There were five additional rockers in the large nursery along with the four cribs occupied by his pups, lining the wall. The nurses lay asleep on twin beds behind a screen so they were close if one of the pups woke through the night. Except David. They had a small crib in their room for when he had problems sleeping. It bothered him that the doctors couldn’t find the root of his pup’s discomfort. Poor thing had been poked and prodded repeatedly with nothing to show for it.

Closing his eyes, he sought advice from the Goddess. He waited until the warmth of her presence filled the room. David quieted and went still. Offering comfort, Silas rubbed his son’s back as he waited for permission to speak.

“Patron.” The whispery voice filled the room and touched every atom of his being. Her energy touched off sparks in the room and sent tingles down his spine. He struggled to make a coherent sentence.
