LOGIN~Samantha~We gathered in Dominic's office at five in the morning. None of us had slept.Lila spread a map across the desk. Marked locations with a pencil."The meeting point is here. Old mill on the eastern border. Black Moon chose it because there's no cover nearby. Open ground. Hard to set up an ambush."
~Samantha~My head was spinning. Lila had been making deals with Black Moon. That was bad. That was a betrayal of trust.But she'd also refused to follow through. Had told the man the deal was off. Had prioritized the mission over her sister.That took strength. That took sacrifice.

The only reason I'm here is because your mate's mother asked mine to protect her daughter! That's the only reason!""How convenient that you can't prove any of that because everyone involved is dead!"

[ALPHA DOMINIC's Point of View]“Alpha!”“Shut up, Liam.”“You're literally bleeding to death, Dominic! Look at you! Your face starts to look so pale!” Liam lashed out at me as he dragged his hand on his face, “Please spare me from your mother's wrath, Dominic. And let's go home to treat that freak
[DEVON’s Point of View]I sensed something wasn’t right, and I knew Diana felt it.I caught her looking at me the second Madison and Cynthia left the room. I was anxious and confused, but Diana's stare made me confirm that these feelings were not just uneasiness but an instinct that she and I had b
