She placed the bags on the floor gesturing for us to join her; we sat on the floor as she removed the plates of pasta from the bags.

“Tonight is pasta night, my favorite night.” She said smiling.

Sarah and I grabbed our plates, digging into the food. I let out a small moan at how good it tasted. “I’d like to meet the person who cooked this meal and have them teach me,” I said.

“Good luck with that, the chef isn’t fond of sharing trade secrets,” Sarah said.

“Translation, he wouldn’t share his cooking recipes even with a knife to his throat,” Camille added.

“What? Why not?”

“He claims it’s a family recipe and he couldn’t bear to part with it,” Camille explained.

“That’s fair,” I responded.

“Is it though? I mean it’s just food isn’t it?”

“I don’t think it’s just food to him. To him, it’s the one thing of his family that he’s able to hold on to, so he wants to keep them as close to him as he can.”

“Wow.” She said with a sigh, “I never thought about it like that. You are so wise.”

    KILLIAN’S POVAnother day, another fucking country. I was beginning to get tired of all this travelling I was doing. I missed my pack, plus there was also the fact that I was starting to feel uneasy. Trouble was brewing back there and it disturbed me that I didn't know what it was and that I was not around to handle it. Instead, I was stuck here being diplomatic to this pompous fuck in front of me.“So Alpha Thorne,” The Alpha of the pack I was looking to form an alliance with said, “Why are you here exactly?”He was asking me this question again. Even though I had already answered him several times. He seemed to take delight in asking me the same thing over and over again, but in different forms; it was almost like he was trying to showcase his English skills.“As I’ve said before Alpha Bane, I wish for our packs to have a friendly relationship with each other. An alliance, if you will. So that in times of trouble we can be there for each other and we can also learn new ways that wil

    LILLIANA'S POVMy mouth was open in shock. That was a lot to process. My eyes darted to Camille; she almost died, and I almost didn't meet her. Such a thought was insane to comprehend. OK, now that's just crazy.” I said, “Did no one do anything to her? Like at all?” “Well, Sarah did try to report her but it was her word against Bianca and her group,” Camille replied softly.“So how did they explain the aconite then? Or was that just conveniently forgotten?” I exclaimed, “Come on! What did they say about that? I mean Camille got hospitalized because of it.”Sarah looked down, a dejected look on her face. “They said it was an accident. I said the aconite in the cookies was intentional but Bianca and her friends said it was an accident, that they found some special ingredient and had no idea it was aconite.” “That's bullshit.” I slammed my hand on the bed, and it made a loud thud, startling Camille. “Sorry.” I muttered to her, then said to Sarah, “Tell me they didn't believe that stor

    SARAH'S POVI felt something in me shatter, I would come to discover later on that it was my heart. “Whoa, Sarah?” He exclaimed, “What are you doing in my room?” He asked, a confused look on his face.“ I-I wanted to speak to you,” I said.“And you couldn't find me outside or tomorrow?” He asked.“No, this cannot wait,” I said in response.“Alright,” He draped his arm over Bianca who was glaring at me, "Speak, what do you want?”“Camille’s in the hospital,” I began. I saw his eyes widen in shock, and I relaxed, perhaps he really didn't know anything about it after all. “She received a package of cookies from her ‘secret admirer’, but it was laced with wolfsbane.”“Is she alright?” He asked, and Bianca, still silent, rolled her eyes.“Yes, she is, thankfully I might add. Doc said if she'd eaten anymore it could have seriously harmed her.” I replied, my eyes trained on him as I watched Bianca from my peripheral vision.“Okay, so what do you want with me then?” He had a puzzled look on

    SARAH’S POVIt was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Telling my story to Lilliana. Camille had witnessed it so she only stared at me, her hand reaching to grab mine in support.Now here was my tale, the reason why Jordan and I had such unspoken things between us:My arrival at the Blood Fang pack was under the cover of darkness. I was so scared that we would be denied entry but he wasn’t. Jordan was a stable rock for me throughout our journey here.“You’re worrying again.” He said to me as he glanced at me.“I can't help it,” I muttered, my nails were under assault by my teeth and I couldn't stop.“You're going to run out of nails at this rate.” He said as he held my hands to stop me from biting them.“What if they don't let us in?” I finally asked the question that I knew was plaguing his mind as well.“That won't happen” He assured, “They never turn anyone away.”“Well, what if they've changed their policy or something?”“Well, if that happens, there's no need to worry, we j

    The shower was divine and my bed was calling my name. How could I refuse? I collapsed onto the bed and sighed in satisfaction. “Aaaah,” I said out loud. I snuggled my head deeper into the pillow and got into a fetal position. Before long I was asleep. “She’s back already?” “That was quick. I wasn’t expecting her back till evening.” “You think she ran away? I mean I would. I hear their training is intense.” “Lilliana wouldn’t run away. So don’t say such nonsense.” “Why is she back then? That’s what I want to know.” “We’ll just ask her when she wakes up. Plus, can’t you see her knees are scraped? She definitely did something.” “Alright, fine. I’ll wait for her to wake up.” “It’s not like you have another choice.” They laughed. I drifted back to sleep. My eyes blinked awake, and I lay still on the bed. My body felt heavy like it was made of lead. “Lilliana?” Sarah asked, “Are you awake?” My mouth also felt heavy and dry, “Yeah. I’m awake.” My voice cracked, “Can you please

    Did I say that out loud? I panicked. “Listen, Lilliana,” He paused, “That is your name, right? I know it’s what Angel called you.” “Angel?” I stared at him warily. “Yes, Angel. Sorry, I forgot I’m the only one who calls her that. Angelica.” He clarified. “Oh uh, yeah. That’s my name- Lilliana.” I nodded. “That’s too long.” He suddenly decided. “What? My name’s not too long.” I protested. “Yes, yes it is. It’s four syllables. I don’t have time to waste pronouncing a four-syllable name. You are Lil from now on.” He pointed at me. “Lil?” I was perplexed, “What on earth is Lil?” “You are, obviously.” “I am not answering to ‘Lil’.” “You act like you have a choice. Either you answer Lil or I keep calling you runt. But I am for sure not calling you Lilliana.” Confusion and horror were evident in my expression, I just knew it. “Oh, wipe that expression off your face, Lil,” He said dismissively, “You’ll get used to it.” “I don’t think I want to,” I responded. “We
