XAVIER

The wolf in my jaws went limp and I dropped it immediately and spun around only to pause, my heart dropping to my stomach.

Where was Mia?

My entire body went rigid before I blinked and pushed myself to move and bolted toward the back of the cottage. My paws barely touched the ground as I ran.

The back door hung open. Splintered wood scattered across the floor.

The bedroom was empty.

MATE.

Kane roared inside me, thrashing against my control.

I burst through the doorway, my shoulder slammi

    XAVIERAs I watched her walk out of the store with obvious tears in her eyes, I knew I should have stopped her. I should have run after her and told her that what she saw was not what happened and that there was a very obvious explanation for everything. The fact that I'd decided that it was better for her not to know about anything at all had been a fault on my path, something that I shouldn't have let happen but if I had told her about it before I went ahead with it, something told me sooner or later, my father would find out and it would be ugly. Very ugly. Right now, what we were doing was even very risky. Risky enough to get us both in serious trouble but it would be worth it. Hopefully. As Marissa touched my arm, I looked away from the door. “ I'll take it you didn't tell her about what's going on. I told you to tell her, after you get what you want, what are you going to do? How will you get her back?” From this standpoint, it seemed impossible because how would I begin

    MIA“What are you talking about? What do you mean you want to go back home? When you say home, what do you mean?” He knew damn well what I meant but he just liked playing dumb. I was seated in his office at home, seeing him for the first time in almost two weeks. He had obviously been very busy with work, I could tell from the dark circles around his eyes. Even with me standing in front of him, he was still focused on a file in his hands. “I mean I'd like to go back to the pack. There's something I need to get there.” His frown deepened. “What is so important that you have to go back to the pack for? Tell me, I'll send someone back there to bring you whatever you want.”Somehow, I already knew he was going to say that but there was no way I would let my father trick me into staying here. What I wanted to do back home was very important to me, hence the reason for the trip. “Dad, I need to go there myself. It's very pertinent that I see to it myself. It's really very important to

    XAVIERWe stayed in one corner of the house, deep in the night. We had to be really careful to make sure that no one was still awake or able to hear what we were talking about. I stood at the corner while Marissa was busy trying to get him to come see me. They were supposed to come here thirty minutes ago but they were nowhere in sight and I couldn't call her because it was risky. My heart was beating because with the way my father was losing sleep over this issue, it would be very easy for him to walk down to my room to speak to me. I kept peaking out of the corner to see if they were coming but I couldn't even hear footsteps. The next thing was to call her because the more time we spent, the riskier it became. As soon as her phone started to ring, I heard footsteps down the hall. I put my phone back into my pocket to stop the light coming from my screen. “What took you so long? I was starting to get worried.” She was panting heavily. “I'm so sorry. My dad stopped me to talk

    XAVIER“What did he tell you?”She closed the door properly before turning to me. “He said the wedding must happen by the weekend. That's in two days. We need to find a way to call it off.”Madison and I have reached some kind of agreement. When I confronted her about the fact that I knew she didn't want to marry me, she didn't deny it. Instead,the first thing. She asked was how we would convince our fathers to see the same.I didn't ask her who she was in love with but the fact that I knew she didn't want to marry me was enough for me to work hard enough to see that this thing didn't happen. “Two days is time for us to think of something. Your boyfriend…is he ready? All you have to do is say the word and I'll help you get passports and everything you need to start a new life abroad.”She looked happy but at a loss. “That would have been the best option but he's hesitant. He has family here and they mean a lot to him. He doesn't want to leave them here. Coupled with the fact that

    MIAIn my bid to get my life back on track, I decided to focus on the one thing my life centered around. Getting to know and under my powers. Right now, the only person who could help me do that was Magma. From what I know, I was going to have to get My Book it Spells from my father. The last time I asked him about it, he said he didn't know what I was talking about. At that point, it did sound like he was telling the truth but I hadn't been focused since I was in the hospital. Maybe I should bring it up again so that I'd be sure of his answer. Last night, I reached out to him to tell him that I was fine and I'd be going to school the next day. He waited a moment before responding, breathing heavily into the phone as if he was trying to think of an answer to give me. Eventually, he responded. “That’s good. You should return to school. How are you doing?”“Good…good. Do you need anything?”Yes. A hug, maybe some ice cream. “No, I'm good. Just wanted to let you know. Also, I wa

    MIAFor the first time in almost a week, I turned on my phone. I'd left the house and rented an apartment on the opposite side of the city, far away from everyone I knew.It's not like I wanted to clear my head. No, I was running away from the truth. What I'd heard, my heart couldn't take it. After my father had told me what Xavier had heard in the office, a huge part of my heart was broken but the part that wanted to believe him and everything we'd been through told me that it was a lie and that I was imagining things. So I decided to go see him and confront him about it. Even though I knew that his father would be there and most probably make things hard for the both of us, I decided to go and hear him out so I won't just hear from everyone besides him. Maybe I should have just left the house without stopping by Falcon's room but the universe didn't want me to keep making a fool of myself so I overheard the conversation. She was on the phone with him when I heard her mutter. “S

    MIA“What were you expecting?”“I don't know, to feel different.” The sun was already high in the sky when I woke up, it was pouring into the room heavily and made me sweat. Seeing that I slept till this late, I was just telling Xavier that I was happy that I could get sleep but now that I was awa

    MIAIt had all been a dream, the whole thing. By the time I woke up, sweat was dripping down my face and my heart was racing faster than an Olympic runner. It was day again, which seemed to offer little relief. Seeing my dad, Xavier and Ekara standing over me, I could tell that they had heard som

    MIAI could feel life draining out of me. My eyes had closed for a bit but that was only until I heard Xavier's voice outside. He sounded very angry and I wanted to go check to make sure that there was nothing wrong and he wasn't fighting with anybody. But my legs wouldn't work, for the life of m

    XAVIER“What the hell are you doing here? Who let you in here?!”Without thinking, I grabbed the gun from my uncle's holster and.held it up to him. Even if I had never shut a gun in my life, I didn't need experience to shoot this bastard in the head and kill him for once. “Hey! Hey! Put the gun d
