Alessio POV He stood on the rocks, watching the sun beginning to creep up over the horizon. Brilliant rays and hues of red and orange cascaded across the sky. Anger coursed through him. His blood was boiling. How did they not realize that she was pregnant before now? This changed everything. His whole plan was shot to shit now. The witch would be here at any moment. He needed her to take care of the problem, one way or another. He turned on his heel and headed towards the pier. He stood at the edge, watching the waves crashing against each other in the distance as the storm raged around them. The storm he felt inside of him, tearing him apart like he was a rickety wooden boat trying to weather a hurricane. On one side, it was calm, peaceful, bright. The other side was hell on earth. A storm that raged on for miles and miles with torrential rainfall that just left you cold and wet. A circle of light caught his attention. Small at first, growing bigger ever so slightly. His hear
Alessio POV “Don’t worry brother, they will pay for it. They wanted you to be their King so you would go to war for them. Then made ran us out of our home afterwards. They used us to fight a war that had nothing to do with us.” Sebastian said. “I wasn’t completely innocent. I let the power of being King go to my head. I liked the power of it.” Alessio said regretfully. “If they hadn’t involved us in their war, you would have never been King for it to go to your head.” Sebastian said. “It doesn’t matter, the past is the past and we can’t change it. All we can do now is look to our future.” Alessio said. Sebastian got up from his chair and walked over to Alessio and put his hand on Alessio’s shoulder. “Our future where we will be home.” Alessio covered Sebastian’s hand with his own. “Yes, we will be.” Alessio picked up his coffee and took a drink. As soon as he did, he spit it back out. Coffee spewed everywhere. It had gotten cold. “Glad I wasn’t still sitting in that cha
Alessio POV He woke to the sun shining through the windows. Rubbing the back of his hand over his eyes, wiping the sleep out of them, he sat up in the huge king-size bed. Emma was lying next to him, snoring softly. She still hadn’t woken up from the sedative, but it should be wearing off at any time. A low growl rumbled from his chest as he saw part of the mark on her neck, peeking out of the collar of her shirt. Soon it would be his mark on her neck instead. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and placed his bare feet on the cold wooden floor. He felt completely rested, he hadn’t slept this good in years. Today marked a new beginning for him and his pack. And his Queen. Today, they all began their new lives. He was excited to start the day, a feeling he hadn’t had in a long time. It felt good to feel something else besides anger and resentment. He still had those feelings, but they weren’t at the forefront anymore. He looked behind him at his sleeping Queen and he felt lik
Alessio POV Alessio leaned against the car, his patience wearing thin. He was anxious to be on the road. Where the fuck are you? He mind linked Sebastian, letting his impatience sound through his voice. Almost there, sir. Well hurry the fuck up. Yes, sir. Still leaning against the car, Alessio crossed his arms over his chest. His foot tapping, showing his aggravation, when finally, he seen his pack approaching. “About fucking time. Let’s go.” He snapped, tossing the bag of keys to Sebastian to distribute. “You ride with me.” He told Sebastian. “Yes, sir.” Sebastian said, nodding his head once. Alessio climbed in the driver’s seat and put the key in the ignition. The car purred to life. Only a few things in this life gave Alessio satisfaction, the sound of his favorite car’s engine was one of them. Once Sebastian climbed into the passenger seat and shut the door, he put the car in drive and pressed the gas pedal to the floor. The car sped off, gravel flying out fro
Alessio POV They had been hiding, watching, for two days now. Waiting. “Sir, something isn’t right.” Sebastian said. “I know.” he said curtly. They had watched the patrols go by all day yesterday, and today, not one single patrol. He didn’t need his Beta to tell him something that was obvious. “They know we are coming. They are pulling their guards back, they are getting ready to fight.” Alessio told him. “But how? How did they know we were coming?” Sebastian asked. “I don’t know. Cut the fence, let’s go.” Alessio commanded. “But sir-” Sebastian began. Alessio grabbed him up by his throat and squeezed. “If you value your life, you will do what the fuck I say and not question me again.” Alessio threw Sebastian against a tree. Sebastian landed on his knees, clutching his throat. Coughing and gasping for air. “Yes sir.” he said hoarsely. “Do it.” Sebastian said, turning to the guy holding the metal cutters. Once the hole was big enough, they crossed the fence and into Silv
Logan POV Logan had spent most of the afternoon on the phone. Every pack in the state was nervous, and had every right to be. There had been no trace of the wolves that attacked Morgan, and no trace of the wolf that attacked Emma. It made no sense, how could they just disappear without a trace? The
Emma POV Emma didn’t sleep well. She tossed and turned the rest of the night, dreams of the wolf plaguing her sleep. She would wake up, drenched in sweat and shaking. Every time she jerked awake, Logan woke up. He would try to hold her and comfort her, but she would just push him away. That didn’t s
Emma POV Emma was still in a lot of pain but she was finally cleared of infection. The only time Logan left her side was if he had a meeting or when he was training. She was still upset with him for how he had acted towards her, but she was a bit more understanding. He had told her why he had gotte
Emma POV Emma’s hand was gripping the phone tightly, she tried to speak but she was paralyzed with fear. She couldn’t move, couldn’t speak. The wolf walked up to the fence and stopped. It just stood there, staring at her. It raised its nose and sniffed the air. When it brought its nose back down, i
