Elara POV

I wait patiently while everyone gets out of the truck. We all had a refreshing shower and a nap, and now it is time to finish the Council once and for all.

Mindy nervously fiddles with her fingers, and taking her by the arm, I pull her away from the group.

“What’s the matter?” I ask softly. “Are you still upset because Tom and Carlos are tied to a tree?”

“No,” she shakes her head, and bites her quivering bottom lip.

“I know you’re scared,” I comfort her. “Honestly, so am I. This missi

    Elara POVAxel helps me to stand as Kane opens the champagne and pours a glass. But instead of pouring two more glasses, he takes a sip, curls his fingers around my neck, and pulls me closer.Our lips connect, and he gently transfers the champagne into my mouth. Bubbles tickle my mouth as he ravishes my lips. Instantly, I am a puddle of desire, and I do not resist when Axel unzips my dress. His hands caress my body eagerly, and I curl my fingers into Kane’s hair.Axel kneels as he pulls down my dress and kisses me on the back of my knee and thigh. Kane creates a hot trail of heat as his lips move over my jaw to my breasts. The sensation of the cool night air following their warm kisses on my skin is mind-blowing, and it is getting harder and harder to keep my composure.I have never yearned for them as I do at this very moment. Frantically, I tug and pull at Kane’s shirt in a desperate attempt to get closer to him. Frustrated with the buttons, I rip it open, sending a few buttons flyi

    Elara POVI am giddy as a schoolgirl as I get ready for dinner with my mates. We have been through so much since the mating ceremony. Hell, we even had a baby, but we have never been on an official date. We have never been to a restaurant, enjoying good food and wine.I decide on an emerald green dress. It brings out my eyes and complements every curve of my body, and I want to look nice for my mates.“Elara, are you ready?” Selena asks from the other side of the door.“Yes, come on in,” I shout, checking my lipstick.“Wow, you look stunning,” Selena compliments me as she plops down on my bed.“Thanks,” I smile, my stomach making a ridiculous somersault as I imagine my mates’ reaction.“Oh, and your car’s waiting,” she adds.“Are Kane and Axel already waiting?” I ask, looking at my watch, but I am on time.“They left,” she replies nonchalantly. “You have a car and driver, and he’ll take you to them.”“What are you talking about?” I frown. They did not mention anything about a car.“Lo

    Elara POVOne week later.I open my eyes, reaching out to Axel, but he is not in bed. Frowning, I sit up and rub over my eyes. Then it hits me.“Kane’s coming home,” I exclaim happily, jumping out of bed. “Axel!”“What?” He shouts from the bathroom. “Are you okay?”“Kane’s coming home,” I yell, running to the bathroom.“I know, love,” Axel replies, getting out of the shower and draping a towel around his waist. I’m picking him up in an hour.“Good,” I nod. “I’ll be ready.”“I said me, not us,” Axel says, walking to the room.“What?” I ask, confused, following him. What makes him think I will stay here? “Naturally, I’m coming, too.”“No, you’re staying here,” Axel replies nonchalantly.“But why?” I argue as my blood starts boiling. I have missed Kane every second of every day. I am not missing him one more moment.“Because I need you to keep the fort here,” Axel replies. “Things are still a mess after we came home. Malachi and your family will be here with our kids in a week, and their

    Axel POVI relentlessly work on Kane, as Elara cannot stop coughing. I look at the basement entrance and ignore the reality that it is stupid to do this here. Smoke is swirling towards us, rendering my efforts useless. Or at least, that will be the case soon enough.“Axel,” Elara croaks, suppressing a cough with great difficulty. “The wall against my back is becoming warmer. The fire is spreading, we must get out, or all of this would’ve been for nothing.”“Dammit, Elara,” I growl, looking at her. “You promised me you’ll get out if you get into trouble.”“You’re mad at me for saving his life?” She asks, confused, before doubling over when another coughing fit hits her.“I’m not mad!” I shout, leaning over and breathing air into Kane’s lungs. “I’m scared, okay? You’re in no better shape than he is. I can’t lose both of you.”“I’m fine,” she argues, standing up, but I can see on her face the effort it takes. “I’ll help you …”“No, you won’t,” I say, picking up Kane. “You can hardly keep

    Axel POVI bite into a warrior’s neck, jerk my head and rip out his trachea. I run towards the next wolf, but Elara’s words make my heart stop, and I stumble over my feet and land in the dirt.Instantly, she rushes to my side, shifts, extends her claw and slaps a warrior away from me. I get up and together, we attack the warrior and kill him.“What are you talking about?” I ask urgently as we attack the next warrior. “What’s happening?”“I don’t know,” she replies. “He said he loved me, and then he went quiet.”Fuck! Of all the possible scenarios I can think of, none of them is good. Injury, captivity … death. An invisible band pulls tight around my chest, and it feels as if I cannot breathe.“Kane, where are you?” I mind-link, desperate to connect with him, but he does not reply. This cannot be happening; he has to be okay. We have been doing everything together since birth. I do not know how to live in a world where he does not exist.“That’s the last one,” Elara mind-links, and I b

    Kane POVI sit motionless behind the wall, watching as Elara leads everyone away. My stomach dives as the subjects and warriors follow them. I close my eyes and silently pray that they will be safe.Once they pass me, I get up and run into the building, ducking from wall to wall, pillar to pillar. I peek my ears, but I do not hear anything. No movement or breathing. Where the fuck is Gustav, and what is he up to?I sneak through the hallways to Gustav’s office, and I grunt in disappointment when I find it empty.Throwing caution to the wind, I run into every office and every room, but I still come up empty. Frustration boils in me when I run to the basement. He would be a fool to hide here; it is a dead end, and he is trapped. But there is nowhere else I have not looked.A soft grunt catches my attention, and I run towards it.“Anton,” I gape in surprise when I see the old man beaten and bruised, locked up in a cell. “I’ll get you out of here. Where are the keys?”“No key,” he groans,
