Maddie POV
Getting on the airplane had been scary at first. I had never been on a plane before, and I wondered if I had made a mistake. But I quickly got past that fear. The flight crew were friendly and kept me distracted. When we were in the air, I was able to relax. I did not get up and move around a lot although I had used the bathroom and saw a bedroom and an office toward the back of the plane. I could not believe it. I am pretty sure most people do not fly this way, but it is a lifestyle you could certainly get used to easy enough.
As we were about to land, I felt butterflies start to flair up. This was the first time flying but even more importantly the first time I had gone anywhere on my own. Well really leaving my territory or Drake’s territory. I only planned an overnigh

Maddie POV My heart skips a beat. My mate is gorgeous as always and with those dark sunglasses I cannot see what he is thinking but he looks sexier. As I move a bit more slowly from the airplane, Drake stands up and strides over to me like a man on a mission. As he arrives, the flight attendant brings down my bag, I reach to take it when Drake reaches around me taking it for me and with his other arm, he cups his hand around the upper part of arm leading me to the SUV. Drake helps me in the car, before shutting the door firmly. He drops my bag in the back of the SUV before he comes around to his side entering the car. He has said nothing since seeing me. As he starts to pull away, I realize we are not going in the direction of the Red Moon Pack. “We are going the wrong way,” I say to Drak
Drake POV I pulled back from my kiss with Maddie only to hear her sigh of frustration. I chuckled internally, “So impatient, Maddie,” I say teasing her. Looking at me her eyes change to a color of anger if that is possible. Clearly, she does not like being teased. As she tries to step out of my arms, I pull her back closer to me. “If at any point, your back hurts or bothers you, you tell …,” I start to say to Maddie when she pulls me close to her and kisses me. This is the first time Maddie has taken charge in the kissing department – with any area of our personal lives. Prodding my lips with her tongue, I open up to have her slip her tongue inside my mouth, sliding and exploring. I start to move back across her tongue, and we enjoy our kiss until we both start to fight for dominance in o
Maddie POV Drake and I had an amazing day together just lazing in bed and enjoying one another’s body. Now Drake had surprised me with a night out. He had a dress already there for me – a gorgeous black cocktail dress that showed off more flesh than I was accustomed to showing. A deep vee in the front with spaghetti straps holding the dress up. The bottom of the dress fell mid-thigh with a short slit to the right of the bottom. As I slipped on strappy heels, Drake came out of the washroom looking stunning in a black suit, with a red tie contrasting the suit. He walked over to me, “Maybe we should stay in and just get room service again,” he suggests. Laughing as he wraps his arms around me grabbing my ass and pulling me close to feel his hard edges. “No way, you look too good not to show off tonight,” I say teasing him. “I am the one that will have to growl at all the men who will be checking out my mate,” he says. 
Kate POV It had been three weeks since Lara had interrupted Maddie and Drake’s date night. As expected, nothing was gained through the man, who Drake had taken captive. Colby had everyone on alert at our end. There was a lot of anticipation surrounding Lara’s next move. Colby had managed to get a couple shifts in. He definitely felt it when he first shifted and was unprepared for how much missing a quarter of his lung would take out of him. Now that he has gotten used to the variance in his breathing he is adjusting better. He does not have the ability, yet, to go the speed and distance he was used to, but I had no doubt it would come. He was a determined man. And stubborn. The doctor had wanted him to wait but he refused needing to see what restrictions he might encounter.
Kate POV As we all sat there in stunned silence, the echo of the gunshot continued to reverberate throughout the forest. Waiting to see who was hit, I look down in front of me. I see a shocked look on Lara’s face and realize the bullet hit her. I let her fall to the ground, rolling her over and seeing the bullet did not go through her. It was lodged in her body and from the blood gushing out the bullet hole I could tell it was a fatal hit. Hearing another gunshot, I felt Colby throw his body over mine when I saw Lara put her hand up making a fist. “Stop,” she says as she lays there in a pool of her own blood. She had used a gesture with her rogue counterparts that indicated it was over. They all started to retreat and there were no more gunshots heard. Crawling over to Lara, I know there
Maddie POV It had been almost a week since Lara had died. We were conducting her service today. Kate and Colby had graciously transported her body to us and had now joined us for the modest service we would have for Lara. There were flowers, and would be a small gathering of people. Some in particular, wanting to be sure she is really gone such as Samuel and Jasmine. I could not blame anyone for how they felt. Lara had been an evil person and had damaged a lot of lives. Some more permanently than others. Drake came out of his walk-in closet wearing a gorgeous suit. My man cleaned up nicely. Let’s be honest – he looked good in whatever he wore. I was just finding him particularly sexy at this moment. He walked over to me, “How are you holding up?” he asks me raising his h
Maddie POV My hand shook as I held the letter. I had a sense I would get the answers to the questions we all had around Lara, Louise, and myself. Questions that had risen this past week. Why had I reacted so heavily to Louise’s passing but no connection to Lara’s passing? How did Kate, her father, and the Beta fit into all of this? As I sat there with the letter in my hands, Drake reaches over and puts his hand on my leg. “You can wait to read that, Maddie,” he says quietly. Nodding, I look at him, “I know. But I feel it is something I need to do now,” I reply. “What were in the papers?” I ask him before refocusing on the letter. “It looks like Lara left you some money as an inheritance from her. She was a wealthy woman,” he shares with me. I am surprised but then
Kate POV The next morning Colby and I are heading toward the DNA testing site. It is about three hours away from the Golden Moon Pack. We agreed to meet Drake and Maddie there rather than try to pick them up on our way. They were slightly closer. I held my purse close to me. I did not take a purse very often unless I had extra things to carry. Today I had important extra things to carry with me. I had DNA samples from both Louise and Lara. When Louise was murdered, we took a sample of her DNA. At that time, we thought we would need it when we found her twin. Unbeknownst to us of Lara’s existence. When Lara passed, we also took a sample of her DNA. I had spoken with Maddie about the samples being available and asked if she would like to have them tested as well.&nbs
