Lily's POVI had never realized how extensive the cave system was, it seemed to penetrate deep into the mountainside, a gullet big enough to swallow us all if some giant beast had freakishly evolved to munch on humans. They had borne me through several apartments of a very modern aspect, placed me on a wooden bedstead somewhat of the Posture of our Field beds, and left me in a large room, where a few small Stones an Inch or two in length and breadth served as windows, within the space of ordinary panes, and by them I knew when it was day or night.They’d taken off my gag when we were deep enough that there’d be no one to hear my shouts, however the ropes that bound my ankles and wrists were tight enough to cut off circulation. I was sitting against the cold stone wall while they were getting ready for whatever they were going to do with me."The best site," the Girl said critically, surveying the cave. "Remote, difficult to get to, and the local fauna will dispose of any... specimens.

Darius's POVThe war room had turned into a command center within hours of finding Lily gone. A map of the terrain had consumed all available space, pinned with colored markers to show areas that had been searched, potential hideouts, and the last places where our searchers had been. In the middle was Captain Marcus standing on the table, moving the army around in the woods by directions over the air.“Report from Team Three,” he said, reading from a message that had just come in. “They picked up the tracks of the cart for about two miles to the northeast and then lost it at Rocky Creek. The soil gets too hard to accept a wheel print beyond that.”"Agreed," I responded stoically, looking over the map and the pockets of the grid we had already checked. It was now six hours after we realized Lily was gone, and we had sent out every available guard in neatly organized search patterns, yet nothing but stone-cold trails and false leads had been found.“Where are Teams Four and Five?” Becau

Chapter 193Sienna’s Pov“Hey man, can we talk?”Ashton called out from a distance.Adrian was still holding onto me. He responded to him “I’ll see you in a few. Just give me some time”.Adrian rubbed my hair and whispered into my ears “You’re gonna be okay, alright? Go in and take a shower okay? You’re sweating Sienna”.The preparations continued in earnest. Just when we thought that everything was working perfectly, we woke up to a very disturbing situation. That morning, as I got out of my bed, my phone notifications beeped.. Still in my sleepy state, I yawned and sulked “Who the hell is that? It’s too early”.I struggled to get out of the bed and into a sitting position. I reached for my sidestool, accidentally knocking the phone from the stool to the floor. “Fuck”.I stood up and reached for the phone on the floor. When I successfully carried it, I raised it to my face and pressed the power button by the side. The news my eyes saw made my heart leap very fast almost out of my c

Darius's POVMargaret's frightened confession had brought to light the extent of the plot against Lily, but not its author. Was not willing to give under even the full weight of my Leading. Goodbye Cecelia” and that is when it happened, on her sweet lips, a mutual name was spoken. Her allegiance was as admirable as it was maddening.“Put her in the dungeons,” I'd told Captain Marcus. “No visitors, no contact with anyone until she feels like being more open with facts.”But by the hours after Margaret was arrested, my wolf was getting restless. The uncompleted mate bond between me and Lily was eerily silent, for once that silence was welcome; the voices in my head coming from it were a constant torment. "I need to tell her," I said out loud in my empty den, the words clawing the back of my throat like shattered glass. “Whatever I’ve done to her, I cannot stand by and let her be killed by someone else while I cower like a craven.”The very idea of going to find her felt as if I had bee

Darius's POVWhen I entered, the grand hall seemed like a tomb, packed with drawn pack faces, their very lives contingent upon my ability to step up and lead them through the crisis. Captain Marcus was next to the head table on one side and Dr. Matthews and three senior pack members were on the other side, expressions grave as they spoke about the hunting accident that had taken three of our own.I straightened my spine and stitched firmness into my voice as I neared, but each step felt like trudging through quicksand. The defective mate bond thrummed with Lily's rage and determination, and something else I didn't recognize, something that made my wolf itching and jittery under my skin.“Report,” I snapped, trying to sound more authoritative than I actually was.The three hunters had been chasing down a rogue bear by the eastern border, started Captain Marcus, his grizzled face pinched in distress. “The animal came out of nowhere and attacked them. Thomas Blackwood, broken leg and gas

Lily's POVSomething fundamental had changed inside of me during my visit to the old prison cell. Where I used to wear my heartbreak like an open wound, it had turned hard and brittle – a diamond-sharp clarity that cleaved down through years of confusion and self-doubt.Now I knew why the Luna mark had never gone away, why I'd never turned my back on Darius despite every logical reason to loathe him. The unfinished mate bond was a shackle that linked us, keeping us pinned together in hell and neither could find peace until it was fulfilled… or until it was severed once and for all.“He didn’t mean to let me go,” I thought as I scrubbed the floors at the old grain storage building. What an asshole, right? This still doesn't excuse him doing what he did, but I think he knew, even when he told me to get out of his life, even when he put me in stasis, that I needed to be bound to him forever by more than a debt so I'd be a burden rather than an ally.I should have been an eruption of rage

Nathan's POV "What's are you waiting for Onika, it's almost 7 pm you would be late for our dinner" I said to Onika, it was almost 7pm and she wasn't ready yet.

Onika's POV Nathan still wouldn't tell me where he was taking me to he kept insisting that he was a surprise and that I should just be patient and see what was going to happen. "Are you sure you don't want to tell me were we are going Nathan?" I asked for the hundredth time while on the flight. "Just be patient Onika, you would know when you get there" he said with a smile on his face. As the plane touched down, I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement. Nathan still hadn't revealed our destination, but the warm tropical air and palm trees visible from the plane window hinted at a paradise. We collected our luggage and made our way to the taxi stand, where Nathan finally revealed our destination: Nassau, the capital city of the Bahamas.The taxi ride to our resort was a blur of colorful buildings, lively music, and the sound of waves crashing against the shore.

She change to her old dress while the receptionist packed the wedding dress into a shopping bag. "So my Onika is finally going to have her happy ending and even her dre

Onika's POV Nathan mother was standing at the door smiling sheepishly at me, I thought I was dreaming until she spoke up "can I come in?" She asked. I could only nod my head walking back inside as she followed me quietly. "Who's that babe?" Nathan asked while serving the dish on the table."Nathan" his mother called from the living. Making Nathan look up in shock, it was obvious that he had no idea that his mother was coming. "What are you doing here mum?" He asked his face looking stern. "Can't I come to see my son and my future daughter in-law" she said making both of us look up in shock. She walked over to the dinning table sitting on down to have breakfast with us, "will you keep on standing or will you both join in for breakfast" she said serving food into her plate. As we sat down at the table, the tension was palpable. Nathan's eyes were narrowed, and his jaw was clenched.
