~ Cleo ~ We were back at the Amber Desert pack now. Callie and Colt had both returned with us as we try to help Callie navigate around her missing mate. Both Jace and I were non stop searching for clues on where Gwen could be, but except for sharing amongst the alliance packs a few pictures on Ca
Records that Doctor Sophia must have shared from the Red Thorn pack. I hold my breath in anticipation as the nurse places cold jelly upon my stomach, the sharp coldness sending my body into full alert state. My wolf was still with me, her energy still zapped, but she was able to talk to me now…I co
Runa POV *3 months ago* I let my fingers strum against the dark varnished oak wood bar which is designed intricately with various scenes of wolves in group hunts. This was very much a shifters bar but on the off chance a human happened to stumble by, they would take it as a tourist attraction.
“No, just passing by. ” “We seem to be attracting newbies today.” The barman’s eyes shoot to me, just as I pour myself another shot glass, the alpha’s eyes following his as they also lock on to me. I’m about to find out his character…whether he’ll take advantage of what he thinks is an intoxicated
Runa POV Without looking back I head straight to the female toilets where he is waiting by the sinks, a frown upon his face. “You were longer than two minutes, I thought you had ditched me.” “Trust me, I’m worth the wait.” I seductively coo back at him, locking the main toilet door before movi
“You want to suck me?” I gag slightly at his words, my blood running cold. “If that is what my alpha wants?” I lick my lips, pretending to be completely in awe of his manhood, as if it’s the biggest one I have ever seen…it’s not. But he doesn’t need to know that. “I knew you were a dirty gi
Runa POV It’s always a lonely walk back home, those dark thoughts always trying to creep in when I only have the noises of nature to keep me company. The self loathing…the doubt…the humanity my wolf so desperately grips on to. She was the one that refused to give up, refused to accept that thi
“Sit down, you must be starving.” “You know I can’t eat that.” I grunt out to her as I take a seat at the kitchen table, my hands running down my face as the night walk finally catches up with me. I should sleep, but he’ll have my head if news got to him that I was back too long and hadn’t been to
“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
