Sophia's POVThe commotion outside in the hallway woke me up. I groaned and turned in the bed and saw that Titus was getting ready for the day."Why didn't you wake me up?" I ask, quickly sitting up realizing that I have meet everyone today. I fling of the blanket and wash my face quickly in the bathroom."I didn't wake you because we have time, and I thought I would let you get a little rest," he explains. I wipe my face with a towel that had his scent all over it."That doesn't matter it takes time to make me look approachable." I always look half dead in the morning and I'm making an impression today.I dig through my suitcase and pick out a dress. I wouldn't wear it to a dinner party but it was a casual dress. I go back into the bathroom and comb through my hair a few times. I didn't like how it poofed up in the mornings. I go back out and see Titus fixing his fair using the vanity mirror."Titus you can do that in the bathroom. I need to do my makeup now," I said nudging him out
Sophia's POVWe all ate lunch together then went back to our rooms to get some rest. I crash into the bed and let out a sigh."What's wrong?" He asks crashing right next to me. I nuzzle my face into his neck taking in his scent."I'm scared for tonight," I said, my breath wavering. He kisses my temple."Why? We'll go to the ballroom. Walk down some stairs. Dance for a bit and then eat some food then we come back here and sleep."Well it's the dancing that I'm worried about," I told him. He sat up and looked at me and smiled while I fiddled with my fingers."Don't you take lessons since your a Beta's daughter?" He asks. I shake my head."I haven't taken classes for awhile," I said. He picks me up and throws me over his shoulder then sets me back down in the middle of the floor."What are you doing?" I ask him."We're going to take a dancing lesson," he says. He holds his hand out and I sheepishly take it. He starts dancing and I try to follow his footsteps. He moved swiftly while I jus
Sophia's POVThe next two days were okay for me. Titus went to meeting while I got to stay in our room and read a book. It was getting harder to keep food down so I just drank a few glasses of water.After the first meeting, Titus seemed frustrated but he wouldn't tell me what was happening. After the second meeting, he seemed less stressed than the day before but I could tell something was still bothering him.It was the last full day we have here at Lotus Pack until we pack and leave back for our pack.We laid in bed together while Titus pulled my shirt up and started rubbing my stomach. He lightly kissed it then kissed me."I don't think I tell you I love you enough," he says. I roll my eyes and shake my head."You tell me every single day. How is that not enough?" I laugh. He puts his nose in the crook of my neck and takes a deep breath."Will you be okay here when we all go on the run?" He asks me. I nod. I can't shift since I'm pregnant so I'm going to stay here and watch from t
Sophia's POVTitus, Brody, and Jacob helped bring all our bags out and into the car. I carried my backpack but it took a lot of convincing since Titus didn't want me to overwork.Everyone has been leaving at different times. From early in the morning to now. We decided to leave in the afternoon. We stood at the entrance until we saw someone drive Titus' Tesla in front of us.We packed all our stuff into the car and I put my backpack in the front with me."Thank you for having us Ryan," Titus thanked. He smiled and nodded."It was our pleasure." We said goodbye to Sienna and Alpha Kian who were leaving later. Titus helped me into his car and Brody and Jacob climbed into the back.Titus started driving on the rocky road until we got to the back roads. I took my blanket and pillow out and leaned the chair back. Brody let out a groan and climbed to the back. I gave him a cheeky smile then got comfortable."Thursday," I said out of the blue. "They said they're coming for me Thursday."Titus
Titus's POVMondayI felt Tala start to squirm around early in the morning. I let out a small groan and look down at her. Her eyes open slowly and she let out a squeak as she stretches her tiny arms. She rubs her eyes and looks at Sophia then looks at me. She saw that I was awake and smiled and waved at me."Are you hungry?" I ask her. I was trying to distract her from waking up Sophia. I wanted her to get some more rest since it was only 9.She nods and I let out a small sigh. I got up and she stands up on the bed and climbs into my arms. I rest her on my hip and she wraps her arms around my neck."Before I make breakfast, we have to get ready," I told her. She nodded and I carry her into the bathroom. "Do you know where you step stool is?"She nods and I set her down. She closes the door that leads to the bedroom and opens the bathroom closet door and points to her wooden step stool.I put out the step stool in front of Sophia's sink and she climbs onto it and grabs her toothbrush ou
Sophia's POVWednesday NightFrom Monday night to now, it has been non stop planning. Titus hasn't come home at night and he's been in his office the whole time. I bring him food and drinks but he still doesn't leave.I've been writing notes to everyone and leaving them in my drawer so Titus could find them. Tomorrow I may never see them again. I can't put everyone I love through what I had to go through.So, everything Titus is doing is useless but it distracted him from my plans.We all sit in Titus office now while Charlotte watched Tala. Titus grumbled as he broke his pen in half and threw it into the trash. There was a map of the pack territory was spread on top of his desk.He grabbed another pen from out of his desk drawer and stood up."This is where the pack house is," he said marking it with two X's. "This is where Sophia's and I's house is.""Pack town is 5 miles from the pack house," Brody said marking it with his pen. "And 20 miles away from the border.""And pack border s
Titus' POV"Fuck," I roared. The birds flew out of the trees as they shook from my outburst. My vision was blinded by my own fury. My breathing became heavy.I lost her. I should have been more attentive. I was too busy focusing on protecting her I didn't check up on her."Damn it," I yell smashing my fist into a tree. She's gone. I couldn't feel anything through our link. It was silent. No feeling no thoughts no communication."What the hell happened. Why are you screaming?" Jacob asks through our link. A low rumble emits from my chest as I go back to our house."They took her. She gave herself over to them and I was helpless. I couldn't fucking do anything. The bitch witch is strong," I growl. "I lost her and I don't know what to fucking do.""Go through her stuff maybe she left clues or something," Brody said butting in the conversation. I go upstairs and see Charlotte holding a sleeping Tala."Bring her to Sophia's old room," I order she nods and carefully carries Tala to the room
Sophia's POVBlood was dripping down from my body and onto the ground. My wolf was weak. They kept objecting my with silver and wolfsbane non stop. They laced my wounds with silver so they wouldn't heal.I had no strength to stand back up on the wall. They've hit everywhere except my stomach. My arms had lost so much blood in them from being hung up so long.I haven't even been here for an hour and I already feel worn out. My clothes were torn and soaked with my blood. My wolf was tired and trying to heal. I tried linking Titus but it was blocked. I hope he found my letter. It explains to him how to find me."I guess you've had a long enough break," Adrian's voice boomed from the stairwell. It's been 7 minutes. There was a table of weapons in the corner of the room. He picked up a gun and a few silver bullets."Let's plays a game," he says. "These bullets are the darts and you're the dartboard."He points the gun at me and shoots. The bullets hits my arm and I let out a scream. He lets
