One year laterLana’s POVI never heard from Blake after that day. It was impossible for him to link me after I broke the bond between us. But it didn’t stop his wolves trying to locate me.For the first six months, it even made the news. That there was a new Alpha of Alpha’s. They gave my name and description, promising a reward if I was returned to them. But as time went on, my appearance on the news became less and less. The humans were losing interest. I was never spotted. I had had my hair permanently relaxed so I didn’t have to deal with the curls. I wore shades when it was sunny or brown contacts when the weather was rubbish. If I went out, I never went out alone. I was always with Dillon. A human.It had taken a couple of months before we officially became a couple. Though that didn’t stop us fooling around before then. Not once did I feel pressured with him. Not once did I feel like he was hiding something. He never hesitated to answer a question. He was different, he wasn’t
Lana’s POV“Will you stop meddling! This is your sister’s day!” My mom shouts at me for the third time today. It was no different to any other day. They always preferred Abby. At least this time I wasn’t being hit.“I’m sorry, okay, but I need to talk to you!” She glares at me with those bright blue eyes of hers.“What a surprise?! Can you not let your sister enjoy her day without making it about you!” She scolds me again as she hurries about putting the decorations up. The problem was it was never about me. They didn’t give a shit about me and it had been this way since they adopted me. Abby and I came as a pair. We were not biological sisters but we had been inseparable in the orphanage and she had taken me under her wing. Our parents weren’t allowed to adopt her without me, so they took me too. It would have been better if they had left me behind.“But mom, please you need to listen!”Her hand finally reaches out and strikes my face. I don’t know why I expected anything different
Lana’s POVWhen I was sent to do the dishes, I already knew that I was in for a rough ride. His footsteps have always haunted me. I had come to recognise his sound, his scent. It always sent a shiver through me.“Fucking scum!” he mutters as he pushes the door open.I keep quiet, just trying to get through the dishes. I just wanted to go home.“I knew as soon as we brought you home, I knew exactly what you were.. That thing on your neck, darkening with each moment that we got closer to home.”I should have turned to face him. I didn’t and that was my mistake. His hands lock around my neck as he pushes me up against the counter. He slowly starts to squeeze and no matter how much I pull at his hands. My fingers did nothing.“Why?” I choke out as the pressure continues.There is no answer, his hands continue squeezing as I desperately gasped for air. Struggling against him, my body is weak, I cannot fight him.“ABBY!” I just about call her name and I hear my father laughing.“She has gon
Lana’s POVIt's been a year since the incident. The voice! Saying he is Logan and he is my mate, he never linked me again. It’s weird, but I soon pushed the thoughts out of my head as I started a new beginning.New city and new apartment and I could smell their stench before I opened my door. Why the hell did they have to smell so vile and why were there so many in my apartment block? This was not what I had signed up for when I moved here.“Shitty wolves!” I mutter to myself.Knocking back some painkillers. I quickly guzzle some water in the hopes that it would prevent a headache from starting. It already felt like it was going to be a long day and I hadn’t even left my apartment.Groaning, I grab my bag and lock the door. Quickly making my way to the elevator. Hoping and praying that I wouldn’t bump into one of them. The last thing I needed is to stink like a wolf all day. It was bad enough it took me hours to get the stench off me last night, it’s like it just clings to me. Yet I n
Logan’s POV“I have a meeting and you're telling me this now!” I was already so angry with my father.“I didn’t want to worry you but…”“But what?”“I can’t link them either.” “Why didn’t you tell me? They are my sisters too!” I lean against his desk, the one that would be mine soon as he chucks another drink back his throat.“I didn’t want to worry you Logan.”“Are you serious? There is someone out there that has been killing wolves for the last two years and you expect me not to worry! How long?””“I’m sure they are fine.”“How long?” I repeat my question, getting more and more frustrated. He was expecting me to be some great Alpha when I take over and yet he wasn’t telling me everything.“Five days.” He groans, shaking his head.“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”“They are sixteen, you know what you were like at that age. You were the one who turned my hair grey!” He wasn’t wrong, I looked up to the grey flecks of hair running through his once dark hair. I hadn’t exactly been a gold
Lana’s POVAbby stays with me until we pull up in front of the large hotel. There must easily be five hundred rooms in this place. Everything from the outside was glass and I don’t really remember seeing this place before, but then Abby and I hadn’t been in town for long.“Wow, fancy!” Abby mutters as she climbs out the passenger door.“Yeah and I can already smell them!”“I think there must be something wrong with your nose. It’s really not that bad!” Abby shrugs her shoulders at me before wishing me luck and waving me off.My boots click clack along the marbled floor as I make my way to the front desk and ask to see Logan Lonecrown. I was just grateful that the receptionist was human. Hopefully a sign that this Logan person was too.“Ah, you must be Miss Decker. Mr Lonecrown is unavailable right now”I roll my eyes, it wasn’t the first time this meeting had been rearranged. I knew what was about to happen. She was going to give me a load of shit about making it up to me.“But Mr Set
Logan’s POVUncle Liam links me before I even make it to the training ground. Gut instinct tells me that he is about to ruin my fun!“I need you to come see me, now.” I roll my eyes, ready for the warning he was going to give me.“I’m on my way to training. ”“There is no training taking place today.” There’s worry in his tone. It wasn’t like Liam to ever be worried. He was usually so chilled.“You need to come to my house. Now!”“Fine, I am on my way!” I snap through the linkTaking a detour, I make my way to his house, where he is sat nursing a glass of whisky. His eyes flicker up to me as he kicks out a chair and tells me to sit. His brow is wrinkled as he concentrates on his glass. His frown makes him look old. Is this what Alpha life held for me?“Where are the others?”His house was normally packed with the rest of his brood, but he was here, alone.“You’re aunt has some news about the twins.”“Aunty Kendra is helping?” I was shocked because I was more powerful than her and yet
Lana’s POVI had heard him. He knew we were there. That same voice from before. It had made my body vibrate as he screamed into my head. We may have taken it too far this time. I think we have pissed off the wrong wolf.How did he know it was me and why did he choose that moment to shout at me?“Here!” Abby hands a glass of wine to me. The twins had been young, probably the youngest I had ever killed. I still hadn’t told her about the voice. I needed more information before I told her.“Why don’t you stay here tonight? There are no wolves and we can plan the next step. Plus you seem a little bothered.” She tilts her head as she watches me.“They were so young.” I mutter“It’s another step closer to the Alpha!”“It doesn’t bother you that they were practically children?”She takes a huge swig of wine and doesn’t answer my question. So I decide not to push it. Abby was older than me and she quite often knew better.“Can I at least shower?” I ask“You know where it is.” She knocks back
