When we got to the Reyes mansion, Silver didn’t say anything at all. The entire drive had been silent and awkward and I for sure thought she would breech the topic of our estrangement but none of that came up. When Silver took off her seat belt and tried to exit the car, I put on my big girl pants and just decided to address the situation. “Are we cool?” I asked out loud. Silver slowed down and turned to give give me a look that showed she was obviously taken aback by my question. I sighed. “Are we okay, Silv? Ever since Kaden and I got back together, it’s been… awkward between the two of us.” Silver paused. She let go of the car handle and fiddled with her car keys. “I don’t have a problem with you and Kaden being back together, Mia.” It was my turn to be surprised. “Uhm, I didn’t mean it that way… I - wait, do you have a problem with Kaden and I dating?” Silver opened her mouth then closed it. “No. That’s not what I meant.” She spoke quickly. I rubbed my arm feeling uncomfo

“The countdown has officially begun!” Rochelle announced excitedly as she set up the strip away pad that currently had a huge 12 on it.I yelped squeezing Ross’ hand and I jumped up and down.“I can’t believe prom is in 12 days.”Ross straightened his glasses looking at my hand that clutched his in confusion.“What I can’t believe is that we actually managed not to screw up this entire process.” He spoke.Ted walked over grinning at the printed out prom fliers. He picked one up, admiring it. “Tell me about it. I don’t know how you did it, Mia, but you somehow made the entire thing actually not look like crap.”I flushed. “Please, we all did this.” I spoke as I let go of Ross and walked up to straighten some of the left over tickets on the desk Branson was sitting at.Branson smirked at me. “Your modesty amazes me.”“It amazes all of us.” Fridah spoke from where she was monitoring Ted finishing up the playlist making sure he didn’t add any music that the principal would surely call us

The cheers were deafening and I felt my heart beat in anticipation as Kaden showed up in the middle of the ring with a man a few inches taller than him but almost roughly the same build.I clutched the seat as I heard the referee explaining something to both of them.Finally the countdown started and before I knew it, the first punch landed right against Kaden’s jaw.Kaden immediately returned a blow and soon they were both a flurry of boxing gloves being exchanged.I was practically holding my breath as the other guy kept landing punch after punch.More than I had ever seen Kaden allow.“Tighten up Kaden!” Dylan yelled furiously from the other end.Kaden was mostly on defence now and I understood because the other guy had lightning fast movements.“He’s playing safe.” Rand spoke wincing when Kaden was hit again.“Yeah, probably because he doesn’t want to lose his teeth.” Silver spoke. She was trying too hard to appear nonchalant about everything but she was also on the edge of her se

Silver’s face came into view when I spun around.She had her mouth open to say something but whatever it was didn’t come out as her eyes dipped to my chest where the chain hang.She looked like she wanted to talk but no words came out. It felt like she was staring at the chains for an entire thirty seconds before she dropped her hands.“We should uhm - Kaden said you were gonna watch his match?”I nodded slowly wondering why she was acting so weird. But I wasn’t exactly in the best position to speculate considering I, myself, had been avoiding her all because of the complications between Kaden and I.Another issue that seemed to take precedent in the moment - the blonde girl. I turned to see if she was still staring but the spot where she had been standing was now filled with two tattooed men.I furrowed my brows.“Next up, we have the Reyes champion himself and West side’s beast taking the main ring!” A voice announced through the speakers.“Come on, they’re starting.” Silver told me

“Mia? Do you mind?” Hayden asked as he offered his gloved hand to me gesturing me to secure the strap.I walked over to help.The atmosphere in the club was more electric than usual tonight. And I could tell it wasn’t just the watchers who were fired up.“Does he always get like this?” I muttered to Hayden as I gestured to Drew who was bouncing around in one spot, ear phones plugged in.Hayden rose his brows slightly and then shrugged. “Pretty much. It’s the biggest tournament of the year.”“Not just the biggest, the riskiest.” Scott came over to join us with a water bottle in his hand. He looked the most calm amongst the three today. He actually seemed almost bored, like he would much rather be at home instead of this packed, loud and rowdy place.And it did seem more packed and rowdy today.I let out a sigh shifting nervously. The guys had try to explain to me why they would have to spend more hours training than usual but it all went over my head, to be honest.They fought for mone

Kaden had been drinking from his cup and suddenly choked.“Oh my gosh.” I quickly crawled up to him and patted his back. “You okay?” I asked hurriedly.He sat up and turned to face me.“Who told you about Chloe?” His voice was urgent, a tad bit more aggressive. Not like anything I was used to when it came to Kaden.I hesitated as I answered.“Shark. Shark told me.”This didn’t help things. Kaden only seemed to get more upset. He turned to face me fully now.“When did you talk to Shark?” He demanded.Oh my goodness. There was something here. He wouldn’t be reacting this way if there wasn’t. Was Shark right? Had Kaden hurt some girl named Chloe?“That’s not the point, Kaden. Who is she?”“It is the point.” Kaden countered angrily. “I don’t want you anywhere near him.”“He showed up to the gym while you were showering. He wanted to talk to you about his pay check, okay? Now answer my question. Who’s Chloe?”Kaden’s features softened. He let out a breath and looked away from me.“She was

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

I’ve never had a problem with searching for Cameron in my dreams. I just kind of always felt him…Heck, there was once a time I wanted the complete opposite.Being a teenager and having your big brother constantly in your head was the opposite of ideal.But now? I would kill to have my brother reading my invasive thoughts. So that he would know just how freaking worried I was about him.I couldn’t eat or sleep.Mary had tried to sneak in some food for me but it all went untouched. Partly because I didn’t want a single thing Thane gave me and secondly, because my body wouldn’t allow me.Here I was, seated in this room feeling caged when my brother and sister and everyone else could be in danger. Or already gone.People had this misconception that when you constantly faced loss, it somehow became a part of you. But that wasn’t the case at all.Grief and loss would always haunt a person, change them from the inside until it manifested outwards.I had never said it to him but that’s exact

You can’t run away from your problems. That’s a well known fact.But it doesn’t mean I can’t try.The wind rushed through me and I felt like I was zipping through time itself. Sometimes I thought that if I deluded myself into believing I could just escape everything, it would somehow become true.And there was no better way to do this than in my wolf form. Your wolf form was the state in which you could take on the most primal form you could imagine.Your instincts ruled you and you didn’t have to think twice or second guess everything in your head. Life was simpler and I knew I could always clear my head with a run in the woods where there was nothing but my thoughts to keep me company.I slowed down, my paws pressing onto the ground as I neared the familiar spot.The cliff.Even in this state I knew one thing for sure, Jaimie would have known exactly what to do.I stretched out my front limbs in front of myself before standing straight and admiring the view. I couldn’t blame my br

“Okay, sorry I’m late but I’m here now.” Lyra spoke as she burst into the study.We were all gathered; all of us being Piper, Mary, Madam Royce and Landon.Piper had mentioned that whatever she had to disclose was important and sensitive. And so far, these are the only people I could trust to keep that information safe.Lyra looked around at everyone’s faces. The atmosphere was serious and tense. And Piper sat on the couch in the centre with Landon by her side for comfort.I studied her, knees pressed together, hands clasped, her head lowered.I could practically feel the tension emanating off of her. She looked as nervous as she slowly looked up.Lyra walked into the room, her eyes resting on me with a million questions in her eyes.“What’s going on?” She asked in a whisper.As if hearing the question, Piper looked right at her.She let out a breath, unclasped and clasped her hands together again before scooting to the edge of the couch.“Okay, I guess I have some explaining to do.”

When you get marked, it’s supposed to be some magical moment meant to solidify your mating bond.To be quite honest, it’s an old belief. Mutilating each other never showed propriety in it’s true form.The bond never needed physical evidence, it was always there, always obvious in the looks, the touch, how you could see two people on two different sides of the room and just know they were meant to be.I had found out Thane was my mate while locked up in a cage scared to hell for my life.It hadn’t been the most ideal way to discover there was actually someone out there meant for me.But it was nothing in comparison to the day I got marked.I still remembered it like it was yesterday.Up until then, I had been aware of the dark Lord but almost fully convinced that as long as I had my brother and sister, fighting for me, he couldn’t get to me.Our borders were as fortified as they could get. Sure some dark ones slipped in and out from time to time but we only ever really worried about ge

Randall didn’t stand down. He walked out from where he had been standing to position himself in the aisle so that he could stare straight at me.“You heard me.” He spoke. “Why should we take her word for it? Why shouldn’t we believe the king who has kept us safe all these years? The king who you - alpha - antagonised.” He hissed.A vein was poking out from his forehead, just an example of his rage. He glared at me. “You’re the reason king Reagan took away our protection! You, Thane are the reason we’re in this situation! You failed as an alpha and you know it!”The room fell silent. Everyone was now watching with bated breaths and I couldn’t help but wonder how many people in this room agreed with Randall.Lyra turned to me looking like she didn’t know what to do or say either.I knew what I would have done, normally. Beat Randall’s ass into submission. Show him why I was in charge here.But something stopped me. Everyone’s emotions were at peak levels here. I wasn’t Jaimie but even
