RAVEN'S POVI don't know what is happening to me. My body feels as if it's wired with lots of energy. If I weren't so mad, I would be scared out of my mind, but right now my mind was occupied with eliminating the filthy beings that dared to humiliate me. The other rogues have taken a step back, their stance combative. I slowly stood from the bed and faced them, my body vibrating with fury. "You bitch! You are going to pay for this," the leader snarled, rising to his feet. I didn't know what I was doing, but I stared at him heatedly, my eyes intense as if I was trying to see into his mind. He froze, the anger on his face disappeared, and then a fleeting look of confusion appeared on his face before dissolving to one of pain. His moan started small as he struggled against my mental attack, then the pain of me forcefully invading his mind worsened, and he began to scream.Stop it! He screamed. I intensified my attack, imagining his brain boiling and exploding into pieces. And to m

My eyes widened in horror.I was so lost in the leader that I didn’t realize there was one more person. There have always been five, and they have tried to apprehend me the last two times. Who is the sixth guy? I held my breath quickly to avoid inhaling the drug, but I wasn’t quick enough. I could feel its particles settling in my lungs. Wolfdust is a paralytic agent that renders the human side of us paralyzed and our limbs incapable of performing their basic functions, as well as our wolf. It freezes us and locks us in a state in which we are awake and aware of everything happening around us, but unable to move. Its paralytic effect isn’t the only thing the drug does, but it weakens our wolf and we lose our abilities. Th
RAVEN’S POVI fell asleep on the bus on my way home from work, but luckily, my house is at the end of the bus route. “Ma’am,” I heard someone call me, and felt a light tap on my shoulders, jerking me awake. I jumped, my eyes snapping open to find the bus driver's warm brown eyes peering down on me. The compassion I saw in their muddy depths brought tears to my eyes. These days, I cry at the drop of a hat, and I would like to blame it all on my hormones, but the days have been horrific, and the nights are a sleeping nightmare. Since I escaped from Victor, leaving my Pack and everything I know, things have not been the same, but this is a story for another time. Now, I have to get off the bus before the compassion in the driver’s eyes turns to impatience. “Are you alright, ma’am?” I wish he would stop calling me that. Anyone would think I am way older than he, and he looks in his mid-forties. I know these past few weeks have been horrendous, and they say stress ages one faster,
VICTOR’S POV ContI stared at Alpha Andrew calculatively, my face an unreadable mask. The cocky smirk on his face let me know he is enjoying embarrassing me before everyone. This is Raven’s fault. If she hadn’t run of like a bitch in heat, I won’t be here entertaining this arrogant son of a whore. I breathed in and out to calm down. I wouldn’t let the son of a bitch think he has got the best of me. Andrew and I have always competed, from when we were boys to when we were in high school. We competed in sports, girls, anything, you name it, and I always came out on top. The only time the son of a bitch ever had one over me was when it came to our mates. Andrew’s mate, Amanda was a gorgeous brunette with baby blue eyes, but despite how stunning the woman is it didn’t stop her mate from fucking anything in skirt. What a manwhore.“Are you sure what your people saw was Raven?” I raised a brow at the Alpha. Even though I knew his words were true, I tried to bluff my way out. Alpha Andre
VICTOR'S POVMy body jolted awake with the first sneak peek of the sun in the sky. I tightened my hold around Selene's slender frame, memories of last night flickering vividly through my mind.After finding my warriors unconscious, I realized that someone else among my people had betrayed me. I returned to the house to question my grandmother again, but the old bat wasn't talking. It didn't matter how much I threatened her; she refused to reveal where Raven was. Her refusal to speak both angered and hurt me because she was loyal to someone who betrayed me instead of to me. I arrested her last night and locked her up with my younger brother. If they are going to betray me, they deserve each other's company. I felt Selene stir in my arms and kissed the nape of her neck to say hello. "Are you alright?" I could hear the wheels turning loudly in your head," she joked. I tightened my grip around her before speaking. "Just thinking about last night."She turned in my arm, and we lay faci
RAVEN'S POVI have never been as scared as when I heard the loud bang announcing Victor's arrival. My heart sank to the pit of my stomach, and my limbs stiffened. Every thought cleared from my mind, and all I could feel wasFearPure unadulterated fear.I have never believed that a day would come when I would fear the man who owns my heart, but it was happening this minute, and the worst part was that I didn't dare to fight him. I stared helplessly at Grandma Liv, my pupils wide with fear, fingers curled tightly on my lap, my joints stiff with tension. Should I give up? This question ran rampant in my mind. Maybe if I give in to Victor and beg for his forgiveness, he will leave my baby alone. My baby! The reminder of the little one I was carrying brought life back to my frozen limbs, and I flew to my feet with renewed energy, startling Grandma Liv. "Where are you going?" "Out there, I am not giving up without a fight," I said with vigor, my body vibrating with energy to protect
