LOGINI’m trained to do one thing: kill. I was put into a school where the concepts of love and forgiveness were treated as weaknesses. When I graduated, they told me I’d be lucky to survive; now I’m the best of the best and the person who gets the job done no matter what. I’ve assassinated Presidents, housewives, Navy SEALS and more shifters than I can count. I have more kills than anyone in my business, so when a new order comes in to kill Alpha Gideon, I take it without a second thought. He’s a job like any other, but during my scouting, I see something I’ve never seen before. Alpha Gideon isn’t a tyrant or a bully; he’s kind to his Pack. I start asking questions, which is when everything goes to shit. My signal is found, and for the first time in my life, my target has me in his sights. I expect pain and maybe even death, but Alpha Gideon treats me like a welcomed guest; his warmth and kindness open up something inside of me that I didn’t know I had. I should kill him before he changes me completely. I tell him I’m cold and heartless, and he laughs. Loving a mark has never been done, but no matter what I do, every touch sets me on fire and with each longing glance, my past becomes a distant memory. I’m ready to put everything I was aside to stay with Alpha Gideon when the call comes in; my fellow assassins have been called. The bounty on Alpha Gideon has been doubled. I have two choices: protect the man who has opened up my heart or kill the target and get the job done.
View MoreWe pass the two grieving families as we walk to the edge of the Pack. It took a while for either family to look at us but when Rusty showed up for the first time, he helped them move on by offering them a new home. It will be hard losing Pack members but Gideon and I both agreed that they needed a fresh start away from the pain. I have no idea how it feels to lose a pup so permanently but I do understand it after what Seraphina did to me. “Are you ready for tonight?” Gideon asks me as he puts one arm around me; Des is still pulling on his hair but he seems completely unbothered. “More than ready, once she’s dead, we can finally move on.” I rest my head on his arm. We’ve kept Seraphine locked in the basement since we got back to the Pack but tonight she’s finally going to be held accountable for her crimes. I’ve spent six months making her slowly bleed for what she’s done to me; I’ve taken my pound of flesh and now it's time for the Pack to have theirs. We silently decided to wait fo
Six months later“Gideon, we have to go!” I yell from the kitchen as I try to rangle Des into his sweater; he’s doing his best to wiggle away from me while his namesake watches us from the kitchen table. I glance over at my father-in-law to see him looking completely at ease; there is no sign of the illness that has taken hold of him in the last few weeks. Julie swears it's not serious but Gideon is worried. “You know, you could help Gramps.” I growl at the old Alpha; he does nothing but lift his coffee to his lips and take a deep sip. “Fine, then I’m telling Flora that's your second cup this morning.” I stick my tongue out at him just as I get the sweater settled on my son; he stamps, and he kicks his tiny feet at me but thankfully he’s still too small to make any contact with me once I lean backwards. “You are getting mean since becoming a momma.” Desmond mutters as he puts down the coffee cup and slides it across the table. I watch him eye it up as I pick up Des and place him on
I watch from beside the van as Gideon and Rusty shake hands, and Low is even bowing low towards one of the white wolves, while Ghost seems to be silently saying goodbye to the other wolf. It all seems very final but surely my father is coming to the Dark Moon Pack. I know I just disappointed him by naming my son after a man he doesn’t know but he’s just going to have to understand that Desmond feels more like a father to me. “You’re leaving?” I ask my father as I push off the van. Desmond James is lying inside, having a nice little nap. Now he has a full stomach so for the first time in hours, both of my arms are free and I actually feel kind of strange without him attached to me. “I have to, little one.” Rusty mutters as he slaps Gideon’s back and pulls away so he can face me. “A Pack can’t have two Alphas and I am nowhere near ready to step down. Gideon is going to have his hands full with you and the little pup; the last thing he needs is for his wolf feeling threatened.” Gideon
“Is she managing?” Rusty asks me as he pokes at the campfire; I glance over at the freshly clean Elle to see her trying like hell to get our son to latch onto her nipple. She’s been trying for over an hour but the little guy is refusing to latch. I can see her getting frustrated but she’s shouted at me twice to back off so I know better than to go over to her. “He came into this world too early and her body has been through hell; she might not be able to produce the milk he needs and I know she’s blaming herself.” I mutter as I watch Ghost approach her; unlike me, he doesn’t get screamed at. The only reason I’m staying by the fire is because he’s being respectful about the distance he keeps from my mate and he’s pointedly looking over her head instead of at her exposed breast. “Please, Luna, let me help. I know you might not want to hear this but when Nicole was pregnant, she was reading all kinds of books and stuff; a lot of them were about lactation.” I feel Rusty’s eyes focus on
The coordinates that my watcher sends are further away from my usual hunting grounds but I kind of expected that with me going to sector twenty-five. It was all divided up once the earth became survivable after some idiot decided to drop bombs for political reasons that don’t matter anymore. When m
After spending a few hours trying to find dirt on Alpha Gideon, I have to concede to the fact that his dark secrets are not on The Academy’s database. It's rare but it does happen; it just means I’m going to have to do some watching after all. I slam the computer closed with a dissatisfied sound an
I dream of nothing so when my computer starts to beep, I’m pulled from sleep and feeling refreshed. I scramble from the bare bed so quickly that my knife clatters to the floor. I need to answer my computer before it disconnects or I’ll be in a world of pain. I ignore my t-shirt; I know who is calli
“The Master and you – watch how you talk about him. He’s the one who delivered us back to the surface and organised the humans into the sectors so we have room to grow and thrive.” I repeat the line I’ve heard all my life: the collector doesn’t say anything; he knows what I’m capable of so I know h
