Again, we all wait on bated breath as the heart monitor beeps slowly. My eyes bounce from the monitor to Ethan and back to his torso, where the worst of the damage is.Slowly, the sounds of the monitors grow closer together, getting back to a more normal beat. His chest rises with a loud sigh before

EthanSuch is the life of a leader.“This vendetta wouldn’t be good for either pack, and I’ve told him to stand down, but I’ve had two Gammas watching your father since I learned of his plans. If you don’t stop him, I don’t think he’ll stop,” Ryan says. I sigh and scrub my hand down my face. My fath

My nerves grew as we get closer to the statue, and I notice the food, flowers, money, and many other things laid out at the bottom of the statue. I glance down at the small gift I brought, nervous that it’s not enough.Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to bring. Ethan said it is a gift of thanks and that
Fiona POV“He should be here any minute,” I tell Healer Farah as she preps the ultrasound machine.Ethan is on his way back from the meeting with the Northern Alphas. He told me that with the death of Alpha Thrange, the other Alphas decided that any form of rebellion or resistance was futile. They s

However, if Fiona does happen to be in one of the two packs the scouts mentioned, we’ll be able to get in and get out without alerting them. I don’t want to lose this chance to search for Fiona. It could be my only chance to do so without violence.“Which means I need us to keep a lock on our anger,
