LOUISAI am going to kill someone.I am not even exaggerating.It is the cold hard truth I will kill someone.And it will be that Alpha “Our mate,” my wolf whispers“Shut up!” I hiss at her.Mate or not, the bastard has my kids“Can you just take a moment to breathe,” she says, completely ignoring my order. “And think through this situation.”“I am thinking through the situation,” I grit out. “I am well aware of the situation at hand. It is why I am fucking worried and terrified.”“Lou-”“This is the Tryst pack, for goddess sakes!” I snap, nearly breaking down in tears. “The Tryst pack! You know their rules! They kill all rogues that cross their territory on sight!”“And yet, we are still alive.”“That-”“That means something. It means our mate-”“It means nothing!” I stop to take a breath and give my hands some respite after banging

TRAVIS “Is this a smart decision?” Mark asks as we walk away from the locked bedroom, ignoring the way Louisa keeps screaming and pounding ag the door“It is the only decision,” I mutter as we walk away. “You saw how she was. She refuses to listen. Wouldn't even allow me to get a word in.”“Well maybe it's because you had her children locked up.”“Don't act smart with me,” I growl at him. Still annoyed by the fact that the woman I have been looking for has not one child but two with another man.And let's not forget the fact that she is my mate.Louisa… is my mate.I don't know whether to leap for joy of finally finding hee or break someone at the fact that someone has already gotten to her first.Just what kind of an asshole leaves a woman with his children and vanishes.“Bastard.”“What did I do?!” Mark exclaims as he gives me a grieved look“Not you,” I say as I walk into my study.

TRAVIS 13 YEARS LATER“She is here again,” Mark says as she barges into my office at the company. “Who?” I ask as I look up from the computer in the desk.“Selene, that witch,” he answers with a snarl and I let out a groan He means that literally.Selene, is an actual witch.One who for some goddess forsaken reason, has set her sights on me.Ever since I became alpha of the Tryst pack and took over the family company, she has been relentless in her pursuit and has no desire to hear the word no.Suffice to say, everyone in my inner circle hates her.“Tell her I am not available,” I tell him just as the door slams open.“Too late,” the witch in person sings out loud as she strolls into my office with Clara, my human secretary who rushed in with her.“I am sorry, Mr. Raid,” she says with an apologetic look on her face. “She wouldn't listen-”“It is fine, Clara,” I say. “You can go back.”She gives me a nod and sends a black look to Selene before she walks away.“You know,” Selene begi

LOUISA“I can't believe you slept with Travis!” Tammy whisper screams as we hurry away from the club. It is at least an hour away from dawn and I need to get back home before anyone realizes I am missing. “Like fucking Travis Raid. Our future Alpha. And you slept with him.”“I know, Tammy!” I snap at her. “I was there.”And yes, I can't believe it either.Like what the hell was I thinking?I know I didn't drink enough to take leave of my senses… I was completely aware of myself when I gave him permission to kiss me.And then…Then, I didn't want it to stop He felt so good, so safe… so perfect.Everything was perfect and I had zero regret about it.How does that make sense that I am happy with losing my virginity to a man I barely know within an hour of meeting him?How does that make sense?!I slept with Travis Raid.I have officially gone insane.Still, I am grateful that I woke up on time to leave before he did.I can't even begin to imagine how that conversation would have gone do

TRAVIS“Can you at least smile?! It is your birthday for goddess sake!”“I am aware it's my birthday,” I mutter back at Mark. “Which is why I am kind of pissed that you would do this. You know how I feel about parties!”“Oh, come on!” He retorts. “What kind of future Alpha hates socializing like this?”“Me. This kind of future Alpha. I can't believe you even planned it in a club. And invited other packs. What the hell, Mark?!”“You should be grateful,” he mutters as we push into the club through the VIP entrance. “This su an opportunity for you to mix with people without the formalities of the other events. And besides, this is your last birthday before you find your mate. Don't you want to live a little? I mean… you are still a virgin!” He whispers that last bit.“You say that like it's a bad thing,” I mutter.“Not a bad thing, just a weird one. You are weird.”“And you are annoying.”“The birthday boy is here!!!!” The shout goes out the moment I walk into the place and soon after I

LOUISA.“I can't believe I let you talk me into this,” I whisper as I duck under another branch, racing through the unclaimed space between my pack, the Blood Moon pack, and the open road.“Oh, come on,” Tammy, my best friend and chief trouble maker, urges me on. “You know you want to. You have been hearing about this rager for months now, what better time are you going to have to go?”Huh.She does have a point.“Aren't your brothers going to be mad when they find out where you are gone?” I ask.“Don't worry about me, at least my brothers are sane and capable of sane reactions. Your father on the other hand…”“Right.”My pack is… unusual to say the least.Very… bigoted in thinking and in practice.As a female of the pack, I am supposed to be in my house, under lock and key by eight not sneaking around to go to a rager at half past ten.If anyone finds out that I did so, only the goddess knows what would happen.And yet, I don't care.They are days I can handle their crap but not toda
