Elias finished his bottle and I lifted him to burp him and he let out a massive burp that made us all laugh. "That's my boy," Cain said proudly. "He gets th
Sarah's POV Six months later I stood in the nursery watching Elias and Owen sleeping in their cribs and still couldn't believe they were real and they were mine and we'd all survived everything that had happened. "You should be resting," Cain said from the doorway. "Doc Martin said you're still re

"Then we'll deal with that when it happens," I said. "But we can't keep living a lie just to protect our reputation." Sarah set down the stuffed wolf and turned to face me fully and said "I'm scared Cain because I want to believe that we can get through this but every time I think things are gettin
Cain's pov I stood in my office staring at the photographs spread across my desk and felt a rage building inside me that had nothing to do with Marcus or Lydia and everything to do with the man who had raised me and taught me what it meant to be an alpha and who had apparently been a monster the e
"Even if that means exposing the pack?" Sarah asked. "Even then," Cain confirmed. "We're not going to cover up murder just to protect our reputation."
