I burst through the double doors of the king’s study.He was seated alone.He didn’t so much as look up from his desk as he seemed more focused on jotting something down.“Thane.” He spoke sounding unenthused.His nonchalance only added to my fury.I marched up to him and swept the ornaments off his desk.They landed on the ground with a thud.I was surprised Miranda wasn’t here to forcefully remove me from the castle premises.He set his pen down and looked up at me. He let out an irritated sigh as he leaned back. “What is it, son?”“Son?” I echoed in disgust. “Son?”“How could you?”“You’ll have to be a little more clear.” He spoke in a bored tone.I flipped over the table.King Reagan didn’t so much as flinch which only infuriated me more.“All this time?” I yelled.King Reagan stared up at me. “I don’t know what you’re talking about Thame but you should be more respectful of your king.”“Screw that!”He rose slowly. “It’s an order, not a request.“I gritted my teeth. “All this tim

“That went as well as I thought it would.” Lyra hissed as we walked out of the castle. It was almost like we had been kicked out with our tails tucked in behind us.As we walked out to the courtyard of the castle, eyes followed us, most of them whispering and I could only imagine the gossip that was starting to spread amongst everyone.Good“Well we knew it wouldn’t work.” I spoke as I stopped in front of our SUV nodding at the guards to open the back door.I turned to Lyra. “Is the plan in motion?”“Our spies are on it.” She spoke with a smile as she jumped into the back seat. I went in after her.We found Dylan looking out the window curiously and as if he was amazed.He turned to us.“So this is what the Castle looks like? I never thought I would live to see the day. Can’t say I’m that impressed.”Lyra rolled her eyes. “Really?”“The Tempest pack’s used to be much nicer. In its glory days anyway.”I couldn’t help but think of Piper’s home. The place she grew up. The place she was a

The Grand doors opened as we walked in.We walked into the throne room and were met with the king’s wives.Evangeline was the first to rise looking serious and angry.“Alpha Thane, you dare to intrude on the royal courts when not only haven’t you boy been summoned but you are also on probation. This is bold, even for you."I could hear Lyra behind me, our footsteps were synchronized as we approached the thrones. We stopped just out of striking distance, seeing Miranda’s eyes darken at the sight of us.I knew if she was here, the king wasn’t too far away. He was never out of her sights for too long.“Apologies, my queen, my ladies.” I spoke. “But there is no room for courtesy in the face of disaster.” I spoke.“We come with urgent news, Queen Evangeline.” Lyra spoke.The air was practically sparking with tension as Queen Evangeline's eyes narrowed.She pursed her lips pursing in displeasure. For a moment, I thought she might order the guards to kick us out, but she seemed to think be

I knocked softly on Landon’s door. It was already open and he sat laying down on his bed staring blankly at nothing.“Hey.” I greeted as I let myself in.Landon turned and saw me. He rolled his eyes and kicked his way into a sitting position.“Oh look, it’s the big and mighty alpha of the Tempest pack. Here to kick me out of my own room?” He asked sarcastically.My face remained straight. I stopped just before his bed.“I know you don’t want to talk to me.”“Did you figure that out all on your own big brother?” He asked grabbing a baseball from near by and fiddling with it.I remember a time when Jaimie would take us out to the field to play. We would always let Landon win because he was the youngest.“Landon, I know you’re mad at me.”Landon shook his head. He then rose to his feet. “No big brother,” he spoke, “mad doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel right now.”“Piper trusted you, you know that? She really believed you cared about her. That from all the crappy people in her pa

“Where’s the prisoner?” I asked in a firm voice as I walked down the steps.There were about a dozen guards around the cells. All some of my top soldiers.It might have seemed extreme. Honestly, I’ve had less security for more threatening prisoners.But I couldn’t take a risk with him.“This way, Alpha, Beta.” One of them spoke as he led Lyra and I down the cold, stone pathway.We passed by the cell Piper had once been kept in and I couldn’t help but feel a pang in my chest.I pictured her in her bed back home still hooked up to all those machines. Mary told me she was doing her best. That they were all doing their best but even I could see the looks of pity all the healers shot me when I spent night after night camped out beside her.Finally we stopped in front of a cell. Iron bars kept contained a man who was cowered in the corner, hugging himself.His eyes flicked up the minute he sensed our presence and started darting between us.It was eerie seeing him. Sure, he looked like any

“Look who’s woken up from the dead.” I spoke.Lyra came limping down into the kitchen, a small smile on her face.I got up instinctively wanting to help her but she held her hand up to stop me.I knew her pride wouldn’t let her.She had never been one to accept help from anyone. Even me.But just by looking at her, I could tell the battle had taken a lot out of her. She looked drained. Her face pale, her hair a mess. A patch was missing from where one of the dark ones had yanked it out.Her bruises were mostly fading but there were still a number over her body. And not to mention the dark circles under her eyes. But to be fair, those had been there even before.She finally got to the table, pulling back a chair and sitting down.I rose my brows at her. “What?” She asked.“Ryan told me you’re supposed to be using crutches.”She rolled her eyes and scoffed.“Yeah well, Ryan puts bandaids on splinter pricks. He’s not exactly my standard of pain tolerance.” She spoke.I let out a light

I really should write a book on how I get myself into such situations. I wanted to slam my head onto the dashboard and maybe wake up when this disturbing and scary dream ended. But alas, I was stuck in this reality where I had just run away from my boyfriend's house which just got shot up with his mortal enemy. And did I mention my hand hurt like hell? I looked down seeing three tiny glass pieces lodged in there. Probably from my broken phone screen. Oh yeah, on top of all that, I broke my phone! I looked to the side and Shark was looking ahead focusing on the road. I sighed. He drove a black Jeep that admittedly smelled really good. "Can we go back now?" I asked with a sigh. Shark didn't even turn to look at me. "Do you want to get arrested?" I huffed. The police had started heading in the direction of Kaden's house just as we were going down the road. Kaden... I can't believe I just left him. What if he had gotten arrested? "I need to make sure Kaden's okay." Shark scof

I tried to keep my tears from falling out as I pushed through groups of people trying to make my way out of the house. Suddenly everything was too loud, too overstimulating and I felt like I was going to shatter. When the hell was I going to stop with all this back and forth when it came to Kaden? All I wanted was for him to let me in and he just constantly did the opposite. Everytime I thought we were making progress, like him letting me come to this party, it all turned into something else. Something completely different and then we were back to square one all over again. Oomph. I felt myself bump into something hard. Correction, someone. I looked up and saw Shark's blue eyes looking down at me. Great, just great. He studied me, placing his hands on my shoulders to steady me. "Leaving so soon?" He asked sounding smug. I rolled my eyes and stepped away from his hold. "Yes, so if you don't mind." I spoke impatiently waiting for him to get out of my way. He smir

Kaden clenched his fists and rose abruptly. Dylan followed soon after along with another guy trying to hold him back. "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" All the while Shark remained seated looking amused by the chaos he had just caused. He looked at me and smirked. "Boys, boys, boys. Let's save the fighting for the ring shall we?" Dylan spoke. He leaned into Kaden's ear and whispered something. Kaden let out a huff and pulled away. I got up to try and talk to him but he just stormed off. Well great. Dylan pinched the bridge of his nose looking frustrated. He then turned his attention to me. His eyes darkening. "Well? Go after him. Fix the problem you created." Dylan turned back to the table. I turned and saw Shark smirking as they handed him some cards. I shot him an open glare before rushing in the direction Kaden had left. Navigating this huge house was difficult enough when it wasn't this packed during the day. But pushing through all these people with the loud music a

I could practically feel the bass of the music pulsating underneath my feet as Kaden led me up the stairs of the Reyes mansion. I sucked in a deep breath trying not to be too overwhelmed by all the cars parked outside. I didn't even have to enter the house to know it must have been packed. And packed it was. When we walked in, we barely had room to navigate through everyone. Both men and women were all around, dancing, screaming, drinking... A cloud of smoke practically filled up the foyer and I almost felt dizzy by it all. I held Kaden's arm tighter suddenly feeling small when I saw a guy being flanked by two barely dressed women. I felt so silly in my little floral dress. Kaden looked down at me and gave me a strained but reassuring smile as he reached over to take my hand in his. He started walking in casually but confidently. At first I thought he would at least say excuse me to the people in front of him. But to my surprise, the minute people saw it was him, they

“I can’t believe you convinced Drew to let me come here. You seriously have some magical persuasive powers.” I spoke in a teasing tone.It felt like Kaden barely heard a word I said, his eyes were fixed on the road in a serious hard glance and his knuckles were turning white with the way he was gripping the steering wheel.I frowned. He had been like this since we had left our apartment. It’s bad enough that I was trying to push away what Scott had said about him being dangerous.His behaviour right now just wasn’t helping.“Hey, are you okay?” I asked reaching out to put my hand on his arm.He jumped slightly.I frowned. “Kaden.”He cast me a glance and forced a smile. “Have I told you how hot you look tonight?”I furrowed my brows in concern. “Did Drew say something? Because if he did, I can talk to him -““Your brother didn’t say anything.” Kaden reassured me. “Trust me, Mia.”I sensed something off in his tone that made me feel sad and small. Suddenly the nerves that had been roam

“They’ve been out there for like an hour.” I spoke in frustration as I paced back and forth in my room.“At least we’d have known if they had killed each other.” Hayden spoke absent mindedly as he fiddled with Mr Washington on my bed.My head snapped to him.He looked up, his brows shooting up. “I just mean we’d have heard it.” He spoke.I shook my head incredulously shooting him a ‘not helping’ look and turned to Scott who was on my bean bag looking bored out of his mind.He noticed my gaze and sat up. “Mia, first of all, they’ve been out there for like ten minutes and secondly, chill. Drew won’t throw any punches.”Scott paused. “At least I don’t think he will.”I huffed as I stormed away from the two. They clearly weren’t helping. I pressed my ear to my bedroom door as if that would help me hear what Drew and Kaden were talking about out there.In the spirit of wanting to be more honest and not keeping secrets from the guys - especially Drew, I decided to tell them about the party

Crystal’s POV I was taken aback. For a few seconds I was speechless. I opened my mouth expecting no sound to come out but I was wrong. "Was?" I was offended and it clearly showed. Tristan chuckled. "What's so funny?" I whined. "Why did you change your mind?" After the year Tristan and

I learnt as much as I could about leading the pack. I still didn't know how Tristan did it. I had barely just graduated high school and all these people looked at me waiting for guidance and protection. It was daunting and nerve racking but I tried my best. The AAP training helped too. I was g

Crystal’s POV (One year later) I learnt to speak in silence. At least around Tristan. When he got too quiet, I knew it was time to get him to a place of isolation where he could sit in his grief without the whole world watching him. I could tell the pack wasn't the same and though our loss

Roman still hadn't returned and I could tell Crystal was worried even though she didn't voice it out. Probably worried about what I might think. But I guess seeing as to how Roman had helped us both escape, maybe I could try to overlook my intense dislike for the guy. Meggy had gotten up sayin

Tristan’s POV When I woke up I was only partly aware of where I was. It was dark but I could still tell I was in the woods. The leaves on the trees rustled with the cool air. They blocked the sky but through the spaces I could see a scattering of stars. When I looked forward I saw a girl wit

Crystal’s POV Never in my life did I ever think I would hear Joshua Melrose say those words. I knew this was technically a dream but it couldn't have prepared me for how dazed I still felt. Mikey's mind space had seemed so scattered and disorganised. But just like Tristan's, it had been in a r
