MasukThese pack members sure flip from hot to cold...
Sinclair POVI’m the one who helps Thalia tip the scales for this war? No pressure.When Dr. Whitmore comes in with the ultrasound machine, I see Adrian’s lip thin. I don’t understand the issue with the doctor. I’ll ask him later.“Agreed, Ms. Sinclair. We still need to check your pups.”I feel my frustration rising. We are talking about a war! Now I am being told not to go anywhere, after just being told I’m in danger. By proxy, so are my pups.“How old is that machine?” Adrian asked.Dr. Whitmore laughed. “This is a small hospital, Mr. Willis. We don’t have a budget for fancy new equipment. This one is almost ten years old, but it still works fine.”Adrian looked at Aiden, and he nodded. He left the room again, and this time, Dr. Whitmore plugged in the monitor and asked me to expose my stomach. I did, and Adrian growled. Dr. Whitmore’s eyes darkened, too.“What?” I asked.Then I looked down, and realized why they looked upset. My stomach was bruised, and so was my side. I lifted my
Thalia POVKaia and I let out a sigh of relief when Aiden called to say they were with Sinclair. I’m giving Sinclair a piece of my sisterly mind when she gets back. She is way too smart to have acted so impulsively. I can’t believe she thinks we were using her. She doesn’t understand we are her family, or she can’t believe it. Either way, when she gets back, I’m holding an intervention.“Are you guys coming back today?” I asked.Aiden chuckled. “Miss me?”I blushed. He always does that to me. Catches me off guard and makes me trip over my words. “A little.”“Only a little? I guess I’m staying away until you fully miss me.”I narrowed my eyes as if he could see me. “Fine. Isaiah is here. He can man the pack while you are gone.”He growled low. “I’m putting you over my knee when I get home, Mojito.”“Promises, promises,” I chuckled. “So, are you guys coming home?”“Not yet. Sinclair wasn’t awake. She lost a lot of blood from the gunshot wound. Kaia’s guy, Gene, donated blood. They are t
Adrian POVI felt a pang in my heart. She continued, though. “I thought these two would be my family and joy, and I didn’t want someone taking them from me and leaving me alone again. I know it was wrong to keep it from you, though. After thinking about it with Mali some more, I decided I was going to tell you, but I didn’t get the chance because Ronan and Candy showed up.”I kissed her. I poured all my love into that kiss. We are together now, and the misunderstandings are cleared up. That is all that matters.When I pulled away from her, I smiled. “We are a family, little mate. Our pups are ours and no one else’s. No one is taking them from us.”I held her against my chest and rubbed her back gently, being mindful of her wound. That is the moment Aiden decided to walk in on us.“Did you two kiss and make up?”Sinclair’s face flushed, and she couldn’t even look Aiden in the eyes. Aiden smirked.“Ready to accept me as your alpha again?” He asked. No jokes, reprimands, lectures. Just th
Adrian POVWe finally get to the town, and I ask where the town hospital is from one of the locals. Once we got the address, we went straight there. As soon as we entered, I saw the state of the hospital. It’s small and doesn't have the best equipment.My heart started beating fast. Please let her be okay I asked in a silent prayer as I approached the front desk.“Kendra Smith.”“Are you family?”“Yes. I’m her husband. She’s pregnant with our twins,” I replied.“She’s on the second floor. Room 222,” she said.“Thank you,” I said as I ran to the second floor. Aiden was trailing behind me. When I got there, I knocked gently on the door before opening it.When I did, I saw Sinclair lying on the bed asleep. Another man is in the room. I want to growl at him, but he could be the feeler that Kaia sent.He saw me and stood up. “Alpha Aiden and Beta Adrian,” he said with an extended hand. “I’m Gene. Kaia sent me to this location to see if I could find Sinclair in Haskville.”I shook his hand.
Adrian POVI have been searching the northwest region for days. The warehouse carried Sinclair’s scent, but her trail was lost. Aiden has been with me this entire time. Kaia has been running the background on everything, and Isaiah has been running Blackstone with Jonah and Rory, while Aric is running Ironclaw.I’m exhausted, but it pales in comparison to the worry I feel. What if she pulls what Amber did to me? What if she falls for some trick?‘For fuck’s sake! Sinclair might be insecure about us, but she is no traitor, Adrian!’ Thor yelled at me. ‘She would never do anything to hurt the pack. She would rather cut ties. Hell, she did cut ties and disappeared. Amber came back and then made our life hell.’‘I can’t help it, Thor. Sinclair did what Amber did. She ran and didn’t say anything. Amber fell for a trap, and I’m terrified to go through that again. I don’t think I’d survive it a second time.’‘Because you finally figured out you are in love with Sinclair. It was obvious to ever
Sinclair POVI’m still working in the background, helping out the pack. There is a war coming. I don’t want innocent people hurt because Julian has a weird obsession with ruling the world. How narcissistic does one have to be?I also have a vested interest now. Twins. I only just found out last week I was having twins. My own little family. I’m not letting anything happen to these two bundles of joy. I honestly thought I just had a stomach bug. I framed the ultrasound picture. I grew up with no one caring to document anything about my life. I will not let that happen to my pups. They will know love. They will know that I valued their existence. They will know that I always wanted them.I moved from the warehouse. I had to. Who raises pups in a warehouse? Luckily, I know how to make a new identity for myself. I had money put away. I bought a small home in the country under a new name. Sinclair Cross is gone. Now I’m Kendra Smith. Unassuming and common and something no one would look for
