LYRA'S POV I put a call through to Tank for the umpteenth time this afternoon, there was no response. I had been doing nothing except lazing about the house ever since we returned from the hospital this morning. The phone went off with a beep sound causing me to let an exaggerated sound. Tank usually turned out to be unavailable in times he was needed most, it was no news but he was doing a great job and if Thorne trusted him, then I could to. I let my head fall to the desk as I continued dialing the line hoping it would connect somewhere around the next hundred years. Having called him consecutively, ten times now could only prove that it was pointless but you couldn't blame me. I so badly wanted to speak with my baby, I wouldn't care how long it took to get through. It was such a pity I couldn't use my powers on him, the why was a case I don't want delve into at all. Before I knew what was happening, my eyelids began to fall over my eyes, only the ringing sound of m
THORNE'S POV "There's something I want to talk to you about." Lyra started as I parked the car in the garage. "Can we talk about it inside?" I tilted my head her way. I couldn't describe how much my spirit had been lifted since that kiss happened. "No, I think it's best I tell you here." The way she paid much caution as she spoke made me feel a bit wary. "Is something wrong?" I asked her. "Is Ryan okay?" "He is fine. It's not about Ryan, it's about the whole pack. If found this paper in my room last night. There were only a few words, it says I welcomed a mole to this pack." Lyra looked at me. "I don't understand." I breathed a sigh, a huge one really. "Do you know who put it there?" It was a really daft question to ask but there was nothing else on my mind. "If I knew, would I be worried? I mean I would be worried but not this worried." Lyra squinted her eyes at me as if she found me impossible. I rolled my eyeballs not knowing what else t
THORNE'S POV I shut the door behind me as I stepped out into the hallway, a nurse brushed past me hurriedly just at the same time. Her deets making tap noise on the floor as she went on. I found Tank looking outside the window again and walked towards him. "What is it that is so interesting out there?" I raised my eyebrow up at him, folding my hands up against my chest. Tank looked away from the panel shields and faced. "Let's just say it's oddly satisfying." He chuckled. "Hmm." I mused. Tank laughed. "What? It's kinda of beautiful out there you know." He shrugged. "Wanna run?" He chipped in. "Ah…" I started scratching my head. "I think I would pass." I went to sit on one of those iron chairs, which you would usually see in hospitals, banks or places where you always wait to be attended to. "Something on your mind?" Tank turned his back completely against the window. "No." I replied as simply as possible. I didn't want it to get t
LYRA'S POV I walked in after Mirabel, who whispered in my ear. "I have to check on him now." She went to stand in front of Ryan while I stared at Thorne. He stared back at me silently as if he hadn't yet recovered from the shock. I ignored him and went to stand beside Mira, placing my hand in him, Ryan's cheek burned me. "Would he have to stay here till he is completely treated!" I asked her. "To prevent him from spreading it to others, we have to keep him here but it's not a illness that would cause him to be bedridden." She assured me. I nodded, whether or not he be bedridden, I would use my powers on him when I'm settled down. Mira excused herself from the room after she was done leaving me, Thorne and Tank behind. Tank sat on the bed nearest to the window raking through his head a countless thousand times. I folded my hand up against my chest and turned to Thorne. "Mind explaining why you didn't tell me about this?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
LYRA'S POV There was a mole in the blood moon pack! Such information wasn't strange, it only just made me wonder why someone would plant a mole in my pack. We weren't that much of a strong pack but we weren't weak either, why would someone want to take over our land. Except they were looking to expand their territory, I could see no more reason for it or… My thoughts went really wild so fast, what if the mole wasn't out to get information about our pack, but about me, my thoughts drifted over to Duncan. I stopped myself immediately, I needed to prevent myself from suspecting him in every worst scenario that came after me. I sat in my bed wondering, the piece of paper still lying in a corner. It said I welcomed a mole into my pack, it could only mean that the mole was amongst the wolves who recently joined my pack. There were about five of them, Lira, John, Madison, Imogen and Daryl and amongst them all, only three were rogues before they joined. I remembered Im
THORNE'S POV I walked away without another word. It wasn't something I was supposed to fuss about. I knew Lyra was trying to protect herself and even more Ryan but that kiss we had in the car had proved something to me and I wasn't going to let it slip away. The moon goddess had given us a chance, we just had to take it. I felt that sacred bond awake within me the moment I touched her, I still felt tingles in my belly because of it too. I don't know if Lyra had felt it too and didn't recognize what it was or if she was just ignoring it. The bond was strong enough, anyone would have felt but whatever her reason was for pushing me away, I just had to accept it. I made my way to Ryan's room to check on him and found him lying in bed. I turned on the lights and found Tank half asleep on the sofa. "Wake up!" I patted his shoulder. "What are you still doing here?" Tank stretched and squinted his eyes at me, I returned the favor and hit him hard on the cheek contin
