Logan’s POVFuck!This was not supposed to be happening. Uncle Liam could have at least given me a heads up.“Auntie Kendra. You shouldn’t be here.”“She is my daughter. You chose to hide her from me.”“She may be your daughter, but she killed mom.”I see a tear run down Lana’s face. Her brilliant brown eyes are wide in shock. Her lips parted like she was trying to say something.“She killed Irina?” Auntie Kendra stares at me with a frown. Turning her attention to Lana, “You’re the one who killed Irina?”“What did Uncle Liam tell you?”“Not enough apparently!” She grumbles through clenched teeth. “Lana, go back to the packhouse.”She nods her head at me. Side stepping around her birth mother. Auntie Kendra reaches out to touch her daughter, but Lana recoils, picking up her pace and practcally diving out the door.“You should have told me Logan. I could help.”“How exactly? She killed your best friend. Whose side would you have chosen?”Auntie Kendra’s frown deepens. Her eyes narrowin
Lana’s POVMy birth mom was actually here. It wasn’t a lie, she was in this pack. She was really here!My breath started catching as I made my way back to the packhouse. She had tried to reach out and touch me but I had recoiled. I was afraid that she wasn’t real. My heart began to race as I stepped into the packhouse. I didn’t know where to go and found myself in Logan’s office.When he had walked in, he was doing his best to comfort me, but it only left me feeling more and more confused. The man standing in front of me had thrown so many mixed messages my way. Maybe it was best to keep my guard up around him. I was even surprised when he said I could go and see Abby.I had to wait until my brother appeared. Sam smiles at me, his blue eyes twinkling as I slip my arm into his.The dungeons were far colder than I remembered and I almost slip on the stone stairs. Sam keeps me steady, his hand gripping my waist and stopping me from smacking my head.“Look who it is. The traitor has come
Logan’s POVHer eyes are wide, tears brimming and threatening to fall over. She blinks a few times, shaking her head.“You’re wrong. She wouldn’t do that!”“Lana, why won’t you accept that she has been playing you all along.”“She wouldn’t, something must be wrong. Someone must have done something to her!”“Lana, we have seen it. The secrets that the witch keeps.”“Stop it.” She throws her hands over her ears, closing her eyes tight. Why couldn’t she just see it, why was she in so much denial? Did she really believe people couldn’t be backstabbers?I thought Seth was my bestfriend and look what he did to me!“Lana, please. I know you don’t want to believe us, but it’s the truth.” Auntie Kendra tries to reason with her, but I knew there was no chance. Lana had to realise the truth on her own. It wouldn’t matter how many times we told her. She would just refuse to accept it.“Don’t” Lana shakes her head, backing away from her mother. In exactly the same way as she had done in the traini
Logan’s POVIt is almost an hour before Sam links me. In that time, Lana had not moved. I couldn’t break the spell that Kendra put on her either, no matter how hard I tried.“Alpha?” He sounded nervous.“Meet me in the packhouse!” When he arrives, his hands are shoved in his pockets, his head low.“Well? What did you find out?”“It’s a sleeping spell, just like I suspected. She will be awake in a few hours.”“I figured that much out. Why did she do it?”He lets out a sigh, “She doesn’t want her here.”That was not what I was expecting to hear! All Kendra ever wanted was to find her daughter.“Why?” I hoped Kendra would have told Sam, after all, he did have a way of getting people to talk to him.“Because of what you saw.” His blue eyes are dark.”You need to get her out of here.”“What are you not telling me, Sam?”“She will be the reason our pack will be taken out.”“Is that what Kendra said?”His head moves up and down. “I know she is my sister. Someone that I thought I would never
Lana’s POVIt was the worst I had felt in a long time. It hadn’t even been that bad in Logan’s pack. Every now and then my stomach would turn but I could always manage to cope with the stench. This was on a whole new level.I watch as he moves room to room, grabbing what he considered to be my essentials. Sometimes he would check in and ask if I really needed it, but never argued with me when I said yes. I knew what he was doing by the way he packed. He was planning on never letting me return here.“I think I got everything. Though you don’t really have much.”“What’s the point in having a load of stuff when you constantly move? Besides, we came here for this.” I throw the piece of paper at his feet. I kept it in the hole under the sofa and when he wasn’t looking, I managed to fish it out.He frowns as his purple eyes fall on it and picks it up. Carefully unfolding the crumpled, coffee stained paper, he stares at it, not speaking a single word. I knew it word for word though, I had sp
Logan’s POVI should have seen it coming. The moment I walked into my hotel, I knew something wasn’t right. The lights were off, my receptionist missing. The place was normally busy. I should have turned around and walked straight back out.Instead my curiosity got the better of me and I move around the first floor. Nothing seemed out of place other than my missing receptionist. Flicking the lights on, I walked into my office, trying to figure out what was going on. I didn’t want to be long.Something was thrown at me. Wolfsbane. It caught in my throat as I inhaled. Laughter surrounded me, a female voice announcing that it was too easy. They may think it’s easy but wolfsbane does not affect me in the same way as it does other wolves.It blocked my ability to link my pack, it made me weak but only for a few hours, almost powerless, but it wouldn’t kill me. I didn’t need the antidote like other wolves. Though these people clearly believed that it would work.Letting them believe it wor
Lana’s POV“Lana, you cannot change who you are.” My so-called mother was trying to tell me that I was part witch.“You’re wrong. There is nothing witchy about me and as much as I hate to say it, I am a wolf.” I look at Sam and Caleb, “Wouldn’t they be mixed too if that was the case?”“It…I know what you are Lana. You showed me how you could control things the moment you were born.”“If I was a witch, I would be pretty certain that I would know about it by now.”Kendras eyes are laser focussed on me, her lips pressed together, her jaw clenched as her nostrils flare.“Why won’t you believe anything that I say?” she snaps and I see Liam grab a hold of her wrist.“Why should I, when you abandoned me!”“If I abandoned you, why would I have fought for so long to find you.”“To cover up your lies!” I still had the note she had left with me as a baby. Pulling it out my pocket, I threw it at her, trying to ignore the crushing pain in my chest.She frantically grabs it and doesn’t even look at
Lana’s POV“It doesn’t make any sense. Logan said the witches were after you. Why would they take him and not you?”I shrug my shoulders at Sam. How was I supposed to have all the answers?“Let’s just see what we can find.”As we walk through the lobby to the reception, Sam let out a groan. It took me a moment to realise that he was staring at the human receptionist. She was smiling in our direction, correction, she was smiling at Sam.“Hey cutie.” she murmurs at him, still not registering me.“Hi Daisy. Logan just sent me to pick up a few things, is it alright if we go through?”She flutters her eyelashes at him, “You want me to come with you?”“Uh, no. I was talking about me and my sister.” Daisy’s face drops as soon as she sees me. I half wondered if she remembered me. I didn’t care either way.“Mr Lonecrown hasn’t been in for a couple of days,” she shifts her focus back to Sam.“He wasn’t here yesterday?”“No, not that I am aware of. There’s been no messages left by the other gir
