11-Spiralling
Lucy POV
I could feel the control slipping. Astrid was coming forward. I could feel my canines coming forward and my nails turning to claws. I was trying so hard to keep all my happiness that my sister was alive, anxiety that she was in a healing facility and anger that I thought I was all alone for so long in check. Astrid was screaming in my mind to find Lanie when Axel's voice came through the darkness.
"Breathe, Luc, don't let her win. You are in control. You are in charge. No one takes your choice from you!" he whispered. I could feel myself begin to breathe normally and my canines retracted, and my nails were my own again. I had to keep it together. Now was not the time to lose control! No pity parties today! I turned to Axel, and when I went to say thank you, I noticed the look on Bonnie's face. She was shocked like she had just seen a ghost. I tried to apologize, but the words were so quiet I couldn't get them out. I thought Bonnie was staring at me, but she

Love and fear 12-Lanie and Lucy together again
Lucy was a nervous wreck. What if Lanie didn't forgive her for not finding her sooner. What if she blamed her for their parent's death. Axel could feel Lucy’s anxiety radiating like hot wind hitting his skin. He leaned over in the back seat of the car and ran the back of his finger along the inside of Lucy's arm; this always calmed her when she was sliding into one of her panic fits. Lucy was always grateful for Axel's ability to manage her insane emotions. It was like they were connected somehow. She just figured that's what happens when you spend your whole life together. The facility was excellent, the walls were painted mint with chocolate trim, and warm paintings hung on the halls. It was a calming atmosphere. Lucy took a deep breath before she walked into the room. The others stayed in the waiting area while the girls got reacquainted. “Lannie? Ummmm... Hi, my name is....." "Lucy, I know I've been waiting for you, little sister."
Love and fear 13- Poisoned Wolf
Aunt Bonnie was right. It wasn't good. Lanie had been in that facility for years, being poisoned. She went there first for just a wolf relaxation retreat, thinking that would help her wolf calm down and deal with the trauma of losing her parents watching them die. That's when her wolf started losing control and had to be sedated until she found her mate, Lanie, turned 18 two years ago, and her mate never came. This could mean a few things: they aren't born yet, very unusual, aren't of age yet, or are dead. Only time will tell where her mate is. The only way to heal the wolf is to wake her and chain in her silver so she can't hurt anyone. Lucy was against this. She thought maybe Axel could help Lanie as he helped her. Axel agreed to try.Aunt Bonnie began mixing the herbs to wake and heal Lanie's wolf. Lanie was anxious to talk with Anna again. Would she be mad, would she blame her for everything, would she lose control and kill a bunch of innocent people again?
Love and fear 14- Anna
Lanie was spelled into her room. Bonnie wasn't going to risk anything! Luckily they had a lunar moon which gave Aunt Bonnie some extra power, so Lanie was not chained in silver. She was bored, Anna hadn't woken up yet, and she had read all of the books Bonnie left for her. Ellen was supposed to bring her dinner soon. Aunt Bonnies cooking wasn't great, but Axel had been cooking lately, and he was terrific in the kitchen. Anna started to wake up! "Mmmm, what's that smell?” “Anna? Is that you? Are you awake? Are you mad? Do you hate me?” “Slow down, sugar. I'm still a little loopy. I could never hate you. It's my job to love and protect you.” “Oh, Anna, I am so relieved. I've missed you so much!!” “Shhhh, what's that smell? Fresh cut grass and coffee?” “Knock, knock, Lanie, are you awake?” “Axel! That food smells great!” Axel dropped the tray of food and pinned Lanie to the wall. MATE! S
Love and fear 15- Getting ready to meet the pack.
A lot had been happening the last few weeks. Axel and Liam had been working hard to train Anna and Lanie. They had come so far in just a few short weeks. Anna was already more trustworthy. Lanie felt much more assertive with the training and the poison out of their system. Maddox was returning today, and Ellen was ecstatic but terrified because they'd be going back to her pack very soon. Aunt Bonnie was preparing Ellen for what would happen once Maddox Marked her. She wouldn't be able to shift until the next full moon, but her wolf would come alive in her mind. Her wolf was currently dormant. Aunt Bonnie was also explaining to Ellen that she is now she is 18, she will start to feel her magic intensify, which will make her a target for dark witches. They will feel her power grow, and she will need to be wise not to overuse her magic and wear herself out. She will need to practice every day to get stronger. She is all good things. She gets her magic from the earth, life and love. Dark
Love and fear 16- Alpha Killian
Alpha Killian I watched as Lucy walked, basically ran from me when she figured out who I was. I never thought I made women that afraid of me. I never thought I would find someone as beautiful as Lucy, and that was my karma for being so ruthless. I had to be cruel to protect my pack. My parents had been murdered when I was only 15. I had to be fierce, evil, ruthless to ensure my pack's survival. I only targeted bad Alphas to absorb their packs, Alphas who were greedy or slept with Omegas and hurt their mates, or Alphas who challenged me not knowing what a warrior I was. I followed her to the training ground because I wanted to see what kind of Luna she would be. If she accepted me, I know she wants to, but she is afraid. She was incredible. I'd never seen a female warrior so tenacious in human form. She never gave up. Her sparring partner was easily twice her weight and a foot taller. But she was fast and smart and knew her strengths and weaknesses. It was magical watch
Love and fear 17-Unwanted mate
Lucy was desperately trying to rest before dinner. Her head was swirling with what to do. She practiced what Axel had taught her, some kung fu clear your mind trick, but it was not working, and she was feeling so agitated. She almost roared when there was a knock at the door."Come in," In walked a jaw-dropping beautiful strawberry blonde. Her dimples were adorable when she smiled! Her freckled face was perfect! She thought for a minute she might ask her what she used for face cream. Her forest green eyes were all too familiar."Hi, I'm Treena, Killians sister. He told me you are his mate."" I haven't accepted him." "Oh, I know he thinks you are going to reject him, but let me tell you why that would be a huge mistake." "I don't think I can be Luna to a pack like this one. You seem very nice, but I am just not...." Lucy trailed off, not wanting to finish her excuse. When really, she was just afraid. "Look, Lucy, I know Killian's re
Love and fear 18-date night disaster
LUCY I debated not coming, but Treena promised I would not regret it. I sat by the edge of the waterfall, watching as the sun began to leave the sky. I had to reject Alpha Killian. I could not be mated to such a cruel man. I had to keep it together. He was so delicious it took my breath away, but I convinced myself it was just the mate bond playing tricks on my mind. I'm a Bennet Wolf. I could have abilities he would take for granted and use to gain power. How could the moon goddess get it so wrong! Or maybe this is my punishment for killing that hiker. That day still haunts me, the blood, the fear, the anguish. I was pulled from my thoughts when I heard the sexy voice again! "Hello, Lucy." I turned to see him. He was wearing a button-down navy-coloured dress shirt tucked into dark jeans that hugged his body perfectly. I closed my eyes and took a breath. "I Lucy Bennet....." before I could finish, Killian smashed his lips onto mine. I couldn't h
Love and fear 19- Where is Lucy
Ellen POV I heard Lanie cry out in pain, and it radiated through me like I was feeling it too. I reached for Maddox but forgot he was on patrol hours away near the border. I ran down the eight flights of stairs instead of taking the elevator, hoping I was fast enough. I wasn't. Anna was in total control. I saw more fear than rage in her eyes. I went to spell Anna to sleep, but Aunt Bonnie said to let her feel her emotions. If we always stepped in, she would never learn for herself. Axel was trying to calm Anna, get her to breathe before he could touch her, but she was shot with something, and Lanie fell to the ground. The wolfsbane worked more like poison than a tranquillizer. Anna was fading. I watched as Axel watched her eyes go slack, and that's when the tether holding Axel's self-control and calm demeanour snapped. Axel lost all control killing the guard with the tranquillizer gun. Before I could even open my mouth to speak, he killed another guard, and the
