Chapter 19
QUADE
We left the cells, Enzo and Zen getting to work on the task I set out for them. It was some sort of poetic justice having Huxley dumped on the castle's steps with no regard just like my sister had been. My father cared for no one but himself but I wanted him to feel a sliver of what I felt to find a dead body sprawled at your doorway. It wouldn't scar a monster like him as it did me but he would be angered and I fully planned to use that anger against him.
Tane, Sylvain, and Victor followed me out, all of us making our way to the pack house. I had to admit, I was a little curious as to why Victor couldn't snap Huxley's neck when he had the perfect opportunity. It made no sense. After everything that man had done to him, wouldn't he want to execute some sort of revenge? An eye for an eye — that was what I was taught.
I was never one to stay silent. It was part of the reason I was partially forthcoming wi

SYDNEY"How did you get these?" I murmured, tracing the pad of my finger over one of the many pink scars marking Quade's skin. He wished the tattoos did their job of hiding the scars away from me but they caught my eye each time. There was something painfully beautiful about every one of them. They held a story, the story of how he survived and persevered.He hissed, clenching the sheets in his tattooed fist, "You don't want to know."I looked up at him, meeting his cold gaze. His green orbs reminded me of the eerie forest at night. Cold, dark, and haunted with untold secrets that could scare the devil himself. I never thought I could remotely feel anything for the man holding me in bed at this moment, but the more I understood him, the deeper my feelings became. They were scratching on the surface of love but it wasn't there yet. I wasn't certain how he arrived to love so quickly but then again, I was the on

SYDNEYI sat at the kitchen island with a bowl of mixed fruit and plain yogurt in front of me. The rest of the pack were busy with morning training — Quade and Victor included — while the older women prepared breakfast. Sparring was out of the question for me which I missed. I tried to cram in a sparring session whenever I could when Victor was around. Now, I barely sparred and stuck to light exercises.Heather opted to skip training today entirely, joining me for breakfast instead. She wouldn't leave my side once she found out about the baby and both Quade and I let her gush and ultimately smother me the entire time. I could see the spark of appreciation lighting up Zen's nearly black eyes every time he saw Quade and I humor her.It had been a few weeks since my first check-up and I had a few more after that. I was officially sporting a baby bump now, one I skillfully hid under Quade's shirts. He never minde

SYDNEY "You're not going after him," Quade snarled, stepping in front of me and placing his hands against the backrest on either side of my head, "I'm serious, Sydney, you're not going to run after him and comfort him as he's some sort of lost fucking pup." "Quade, I'm only going to ask you this once," I asked lowly, challenging him because who the hell did he think he was talking to, "did you say something to set him off?" I watched his jaw muscle tick and his eyes swirl with steely silver, "I may have said some stuff." My lips automatically curved into a malicious snarl. Placing my palms flat against his chest, I shoved him away. He stumbled back and I used that as my opportunity to stand to my feet, "Why the fuck would you do that? Why can't you just let him be? You said it yourself, ignoring him is easy." "Yeah, it's not so fucking easy when you let him touch you

SYDNEYFor the first time since I had taken over being Alpha of the Green Forest pack, I didn't know what to do. I had not a clue of where I should turn or who I should go to. My father would have been able to answer all my questions but it was pride keeping me from asking him about Victor. Pride and the fact I wanted to hear about whatever was going on from the source itself.Victor did deserve his privacy. Every member of my pack had their right to their privacy. But not every member had secrets the way Victor had. If he truly did have the strength of an Alpha then he should have brought it to my attention. As the Alpha, it was his duty to inform me and my right to know how the hell it was even possible for him to possess something like that. How could I trust him if he was going to keep important things like this from me? He gave me a good reason to trust him all those years and now he was giving me a good reason to doubt

SYDNEY"Do you want me to come with you?" Quade murmured, snaking his arms around me from behind. He ducked his head into the crook of my neck and inhaled my scent before releasing a sigh."And make things worse? I don't think so," I answered, grinning at our reflection in the full-length mirror. We looked so different — him with his tattoos and piercings and me with my untouched skin.He groaned, darting his tongue out and licking up my neck, "Do you have to go now? You taste too good for me to let you leave.""Behave," I chastised, swatting his arm before turning in his hold. Swinging my arms over his shoulders, I said, "if you're there it will just aggravate the situation. He'll get mad and he won't want to talk."This morning I woke up and decided it was time Victor finally told me whatever he had been trying to hide. I couldn't keep defending him and justifying his actions. It had been a week since he and Quade got into that brawl and h

SYDNEY"I haven't accepted the title yet," Victor clarified through the link, "I don't think I want to.""You've got no choice. You're clearly an Alpha that's meant to lead them. Maybe you can help them, make them better," I suggested, edging my way toward him. Placing my hand on his extremely sculptured bicep, I said, "Maybe this will be good for you."This time it was him pulling away, hands balling at his side's until they turned a pale white, "I don't want to be an Alpha," his voice came through the link in a snarl and his eyes began flashing black. He was having trouble controlling his anger which continuously set his wolf off."Well, you don't exactly have a choice right now so let me help you the only way I know how," I challenged, standing my ground. He couldn't refuse his title just because he wanted to. That wasn't how it worked and I wouldn't allow it."There is a way you can help me," his voice dropped to a whisper which made no

SYDNEY"Give that back," Quade growled furiously, leaping onto the bed so he could grab ahold of me. I was faster than him, leaping off in time and sprinting to the other end of the room, "I'm not kidding, Sydney. Hand it over!""No!" I grimaced, pouting my lips and hugging the leather-bound book that I found under the bed to my chest, "Why can't I read it. What do you have to hide?" I brought the book forward enough to see his pack crest on the cover, "does it hold your pack secrets or something?"Running a tattooed hand through his damp locks, he sighed, "No, it doesn't hold pack secrets but it's personal and I don't want you to fucking read it." He stepped down from the bed and began fumbling with the hem of the t-shirt he wore, "that's my poetry book."His confession had his heart racing in his ribcage and a thin layer of sweat forming on his forehead. There was absolutely nothing for him

SYDNEYWe had never found the body that the blood belonged to and all of the workers that were working that day checked out clean after we did thorough background searches on them. Majority of the workers were werewolves and belonged to the pack but a handful was human. The perplexed look on their faces haunted me. It was difficult explaining to them what the writing meant. I simply stuck to it being a prank pulled by a group of deranged teenagers. That was far from the truth though, and every day that past felt like the danger that lurked around every corner only grew.I feared bringing my pup into our world, more so now that everyone seemed against us. I'd give my life up for my pup and I knew Quade or Victor, or anyone of my pack members would do the same but I didn't want that to happen. I didn't want it to get to reach that point. My pup needed a safe environment to grow up in, one where I could watch him or her grow and flourish. Maybe
