At first I feel more clarity, less guilt towards Alora for caring for Kaia…for betraying my mate bond with Alora…who had given up on me for Than. This wasn’t as easy as taking the second sister, Kaia wouldn’t be second best, I just knew Alora first. But Kaia wouldn’t see it as that. And I’m starti
Kaia POVI lost track of time by the cliffs, which is always easy for me to do. But when the sun started to fade and the moon grew in strength, I started to feel both Alora and Father pushing on my mindlink, eager for me to come back.My walk back was slow, my footsteps felt heavy…unnatural. Really
Kaia POVI’m angry at everyone. At Father, for him so easily putting his life on the line. I get it, she was his daughter and he spent years thinking she was dead. He wanted to show her what a father’s love is, that he can protect her…keep her safe. But that doesn’t stop the anger rising in the pit
Hector POVWe are afforded warriors from the Nightshade Reformed pack to join us in our journey to the Shadow Rock pack lands. But I only leave Beckett’s borders when I feel the pack link connection with my Beta Ezra grow in strength. He was close by and would almost be with Kaia. If he, my most tr
Kaia POV“Watch me!” My mind refuses to so easily forget his parting words. In fact, it’s all I can think about as Alora and I sit on the cliff tops, letting the hours pass before she needs to go to the medical centre for her pre-op assessment. I was worried, I was scared.I had only just found Alo
Kaia POV“Where are you going?” Ezra starts walking with me. “I need to stop Father…”“Luna!”“Just…stay here with Alora. Please Ezra, as long as she is here, he can’t get to her.” I don’t wait for Ezra to confirm that he will follow my request, I’m too hasty in my exit. Running in the direction o
Alora POVI wanted to hurt him, like he hurt her.But he was still my everything…my joy, my heart…my soul.“Alora?” He gasps out as his eyes start to sting from the impact of my fist reaching his nose. I had put a lot of effort into the throw of that punch, as I place my hand back down by my side I
Hector POV“Ezra…Ezra talk to me!” As soon as I feel my link to my beta kick in, I push on it with strong force. “She’s fine…” “What happened? I felt a surge through the mate bond.”“You felt that? Kaia rejected Than.”“Than? He’s there?”“Not for much longer. If he doesn’t leave soon I think Beck
“Oh right, yes Kit and I are both the Alphas of the Clear Waters pack.” I hadn’t heard of this… “I didn’t know…” “Really? I thought it was common knowledge now, where have you been?” She chuckles out before pausing at my frown. “In a cave.” I deadpan. “I’m sorry Runa, I didn’t think…of course.
~ Runa ~ I was losing control, losing focus. Even as I wake up in Jaxon’s bed, his scent surrounding me…I can feel my resolve weakening. I should have gone through with it last night, I would be back at the Silver River pack righting my Father’s past wrongs. I should have gone through with it,
~ Jaxon ~ It is clear she has an aversion to touch, which isn’t wholly surprising given her experienced with the rogues. But I was struggling to rein my wolf in, he wanted to touch her…to feel her soft skin under touch, to kiss her….to claim her. My biggest fear was not being able to keep him
His eyes are watching me, his glare darting between my eyes and my now clear neck. It would take him a mere second to claim me, to take me as his. To sink his teeth into me. I freeze, panic coursing through me as I hold my breath…it would only take a second. But he isn’t that kind of man, I know
~ Runa ~ “Alpha, the evening report.” A male with ash blonde hair that is turning grey by the temples enters into the dining room, a file within his hold as he hands it over to Hector. “Beta Riley, I think my son can take the report tonight.” Hector nods out before Jaxon shifts in the chair next
“Sure there is, you don’t just end up in a rogue camp without a back story. How long were you there?” Jaxon’s Mum pours herself another glass of wine, her eyes watching me like a hawk. “You talk as if it were a holiday park.” I scoff out slightly. “Enlighten me then…” Her voice rings out, a co
~ Runa ~ The aura radiating off the man before me was palpable, he was an intense individual. His aura dark, powerful. If I thought Alpha Darnell and the bitch, Medea, were intense…they were a walk in the park compared to my next target. His aura, when I was strangling his brother, threaten
…. “I should have informed you the moment I knew she was awake, this is my fault.” Jace stands by the bedroom door, Josie next to him as she once again has used her healing abilities on my mate. “She had been captured by a rogue camp, beaten for I don’t know how long…she was just scared. If it’s
~ Jaxon ~ “Jace!” Cleo’s desperate cry wakes me from the pathetic sleep I finally allowed my body to cave into. I should have known I wouldn’t be able to rest. She clutches at her chest, her frantic cry waking the entire household, most of us having fallen asleep downstairs whilst taking it i
