31. Not Giving Up
RAVEN
Despite my beating heart, I cupped his face, feeling those sparks course through me at our touch.
"Then, I’m going to be right by your side. We are going to figure this out, I'm sure Grandma Amelia gave you that book for a reason." I said softly yet firmly, biting my lip when he grabbed my hips, yanking me against him. His eyes returned to normal as he frowned deeply.
"You’re probably right." He said quietly.
Letting go of me, he grabbed the book and was about to read it when he swore.
"Fuck, I got to go..." He said, standing up.
"What is it?" I asked nervously.
Was it another killing?
"Zack may have found something; stay here; I’ll be back."
"Ok, I’ll read the book until you come back. See if I can figure something out." I replied.
"Sure." He leaned down, placing a chaste kiss on my forehead, just the way he used to years ago. Our eyes met, my heart skipped a beat and he gave me a sm

LIAM We thought we had a fucking lead, but the rain fucking washed it away. By the way the marks were left along the far side, it was clear a body had been dragged along the northern side of the forest. What fucking confused me was that it was almost as if the person knew exactly what angles the cameras were positioned at. Which made me even more pissed off. It meant there was a high chance that the killer was on the inside of the IT or surveillance department. I had told Zack and Damon that I wanted to question every fucking person again, but they had been against it. I was fucking tired of being told how to run my pack. Coming back to my room, seeing Raven sitting there in my bed telling me how I might not even live past the next fucking blood moon was the fucking icing on the damn cake. If that were the fucking case, then what was the point of all this? What was the point of hurting her by keeping her around me? What was the point of keeping a good
Caged Between The Beta & Alpha 33. A Luna's Opinion
RAVEN "This isn’t what it looks like!" I squeaked, pushing Liam off roughly, my eyes falling to his hard-on. Goddess, kill me now! Let the earth open up and swallow me whole! Is this karma for all the times I’ve seen Uncle El and Aunty Red making out and made fun of them! We both got to our feet and Liam quickly sat down on the bed, grabbing the duvet and pulling it onto the bed before very smoothly draping it over his lap. I stood there staring at Aunty Red, who was smirking despite the clear confusion in her eyes. She crossed her arms under her big plushies and looked between us. I knew she could smell Liam in my room, which meant she knew he had been here for a while… "So… I guess I disturbed you guys." She said, clearing her throat. No matter how smooth she was behaving, she was clearly surprised. She now looked at her son, who was running his fingers through his messy locks. That just made him look so sexy... His chiselled

RAVEN "Well first of all, you all acted stupidly. I’ll start with that idiot of mine." She shook her head. "I get that he doesn’t want to share. Then, instead of running away, he should have stayed here and come up with a solution, but he’s always been the passive one… Even when they were younger and both he and Kiara wanted something, he’d let her have it. I guess in this situation, he couldn’t really just give you up but also didn’t want to cause damage, and so he left. I personally think seeing that you two didn’t even move on probably just confused him even more, and he now thinks Damon has lost his chance so has decided he will take what he wants. What irritates me is that you aren’t an item." I remember Liam saying; ‘you two can do whatever you want’. That’s a good point. He did give us a chance in a way… Even if it was in anger and bitterness. "Damon, his heart is in the right place, but by playing the lenient passive one he’s giving both you and Liam
Caged Between The Beta & Alpha 35. Hope & Determination
RAVEN I pushed open the low white fence that surrounded the graveyard. Not all children were buried here, as some would be buried with their parents, but there were still many graves. It was strange to know that I had a brother that I had never gotten to meet. I looked down at the grass that was sprinkled with daisies and buttercups. Scattered between the small graves were several cherry blossoms. I walked through the graves, scanning the names for my brothers, stopping when I saw a young woman bending over, placing an orchid on each grave. She turned, sensing me watching her, and gave me a small smile. It took me a moment to realise she was the Omega who I had seen in the kitchen the other night. "Sorry…" She said, stepping away from the grave. I waved my hand. "Oh, don’t apologise! I'm just searching for a grave…" I said, giving her a small smile. "Whose?" She asked. "I might know, I visit often." "Oh… Renji Jacobs."

RAVEN Damon and I quickly rushed downstairs, not wanting to disturb Aunty M with Dad’s shouting. I pulled open the front door to see Dad standing there, his eyes blazing as he glared at me with such hatred that my heart skipped a beat. "Who told you about him?" He hissed, advancing towards me. I stepped back, flinching, a vague memory of long ago flitting through my head. Dad had never hit me, had he? Subconsciously, something didn’t feel right. He stopped a few feet away, holding out Sparks. "I SAID WHO TOLD YOU!" He thundered. "What the… Calm down." Damon said warningly. Placing his hand on my back comfortingly. "I’m talking to her." Dad hissed back, shaking Sparks in front of me. My breath hitched, my chest aching as I stared at Sparks, a plushie that meant a lot to me. I had made him when I was a child, all by myself, with needle and thread. I had pricked myself a hundred times that day, but
Caged Between The Beta & Alpha 37. His Ugly Reality
DAMON"Let go of me, Nicholson!" Raven’s dad hissed.Yeah, I don’t think so. Not when he gave shit like that to Raven. I had mind linked Liam, who told me to bring him in, he fucking needed this.Entering the headquarters, I dragged the growling and shouting Haru Jacob’s to the room Liam was waiting at. I don’t think addressing him as Mr Jacobs feels right anymore, especially after all the shit he’s clearly given Raven."If I were you, I’d stay quiet. I'm sure your reputation matters, and if you continue like this, the entire pack will know you’re here." I growled icily, pushing open the door.Liam was sitting on one of the two chairs, his legs up on the table, crossed at the ankles, playing with a small knife in his hand.He looked at us, his glare on Raven’s dad with a glint in his cold blue eyes."Nice of you to drop by, do take a seat." He said with a cold mocking smirk."I wi

LIAM My eyes blazed as those words left his fucking mouth. I grabbed his hair, slamming his head into the table. How could she not have mentioned it? Fuck, didn’t she even think to tell us? Clearly, we weren’t real friends. But I can’t go fucking blame her for shit when I should have picked up the damn signs. "Have you hurt her physically?" I asked dangerously. "ANSWER ME!" "And if I have?" He spat. The anger that was blazing through me suddenly snapped inside of me, ravelling out of my control. All I could see was the darkness closing around us and Haru’s face; it twisted in contempt for my mate, looming before me. "Liam… don’t!" Someone was shouting, but it didn’t matter, all I wanted was to kill the man before me. Was that the smell of blood? Who was screaming? I felt a jarring pain in my back and I was slammed to the ground. Someone was trying to pin me down. I glared up at the man who was on

RAVEN"Let’s have a look around just in case." Liam said quietly.The moment he took my mug off me all three of us stood up. Damon scanned the kitchen before looking at the back door."How did they even get in?" He murmured more to himself than us."The door was unlocked." I said, scanning the ground to see if there were any foot prints or anything."The door was definitely locked, I always check and hide the keys so Momma doesn’t wander out.""You check the kitchen, see if anything looks out of place. Although you are so fucking messy, I doubt you’ll even realise if anything is out of place." Liam remarked."I cleaned the kitchen today…" Damon almost sounded like he was complaining."Hard to believe." Liam replied, looking around the fairly clean kitchen. "I’ll take a look outside."It was almost like old times with their friendly banter. I just hoped that this could become permanent.
