Collin’s POV
I knew we were limited on time so sleep was going to have to wait. Dante and I arrived at the place the girl had described to a T. All down to the window trim.
“Remind me to make that girl one of our investigators.” I said to Dante as we walked up to the house.
“No kidding. She gave a better description than some of the more seasoned investigators we have.” Dante responded.
We walked up to the door and let ourselves in. It was oddly quiet in the house that was supposed to be the headquarters of the group. Just when we thought no one was there, Dante stopped me and put his finger to his lips and then his ear. I took the que and started listening and heard what sounded like people whispering.
We started following the voices quietly and when we came up to a door where they were coming from, I grabbed the handle and Dante took a defensive position, ready for anyone who might be stupid enough to try an attack. I twiste
Gunner's POV “We will be landing in Iceland in approximately 10 minutes. Please put your trays up and lock them in place, and make sure your seat is in the upright position. The pilot will now turn on the fasten seatbelt sign.” There was a ding noise and the seatbelt symbol lit up. I did as the flight attendant asked and looked around to make sure everyone else was following directions. That’s when it hit me, I was only hours away from seeing my mate again. To lose her after just finding her, and then after all this time not even seeing her or touching her, in this realm at least, I couldn’t wait any longer. “So much for not needing a mate huh?” Maddox grumbled in my head. “It was never in the plans. We were supposed to avenge my mother’s death. That was my only plan.” I thought. “Funny how life works out sometimes huh.” I chuckled to myself. “There’s still something that’s been eating at me though.” Maddox said. “What
Cheyenne’s POVI was falling into a very dark place; my mind going 100 miles per hour, anxiety at an all-time high and no family here to bring me out of a panic attack. I was sitting on the floor of my room with my back to my bed rocking back and forth and my hands were shaking uncontrollably.“Sweetie, you need to calm down. Your human counterpart family might not be here, but you still got me.” Koa softly said, back to her motherly voice. I swear she either had bipolar or multiple personality disorder sometimes.“I don’t know if I should be more worried or if that was meant to be calming.” I said with a shaky voice.“Look I know I’ve ‘off the rails’ as you kids call it nowadays, a couple times, but with my history with these people and now the new freedoms females have in this century, I get carried away. So much pent-up emotions for so many years can drive you crazy.” Sh
Seeley’s POV“REVA!!!!!” I shouted down my wing after returning from my morning run on the beach.Reva was my sister in-law. She was my brother’s mate but he went feral during the last war and was beating her and the pups and I couldn’t stand back and watch anymore so I hid her away in this mountain with her pups, Harold, Howard, Leona, and Herbert.She’s been alone ever since then. Lycan’s chance of a second chance mate is unheard of really. People have claimed it but you can tell after a while, when that “new toy” effect wears off that they weren’t true mates. Yeah I’m sure they loved each other, but there was no bond there.“REVA!!!” I hollered again. “My Chambers! NOW!”I never heard a response with being to wrapped up in my own thoughts. Vampires?! What are those bastards doing back here?! I haven’t had to deal with them in over a c
Cheyenne’s POV“Have you talked to Alex?” Jax asked the King.“No, I haven’t had a chance. You guys are the first. I just heard of it this morning. Harold told me he hasn’t talked to them in a couple of weeks. I sent him out with Sadie, Jessica, Gerreth, and Alfred to gather info on the vampires.” The King told us.“I can ask around here sir, but Alex would be your best bet with her abilities to go places unseen. She’s a sneaky little shit. She could be in this room right now and we probably don’t even know it.” Jax and the King chuckled.“You’re right. Alida, you haven’t heard any talk from maid or such about lycan’s vanishing have you?” The King now looking at me.“Not of that rank, no.” I said honestly. I wasn’t lying, I don’t know every single soul that got on those ships, and I thought it was mainly the lower
Cheyenne POVI stood there in the shadows of the caves waiting for Jax to meet up with me. I was lost in my thoughts staring out into the horizon over the ocean, wondering where they were, when I heard a rock skid across the ground and it snapped me back to reality.“We are just 2 wolves out for a run if anybody asks.” I said quietly looking him dead in the eye.“Ok but what are we really doing?” He asked.“Clearing the beach. They are still going to send trackers out but only a mile off the beach before they let the others off the ships.” I said already slipping my shoes off.Jax nodded and followed my lead. I headed behind a tree to shift while Jax remained in the cave and shifted. We just nodded to each other and then took off running down the beach. We covered about 3 or 4 miles of shoreline and into the woods before Jax got my attention and pointed towards the sun. No words were spoken as we
Seeley’s POVI was sitting in my study trying to figure out what was going on in my kingdom but Alida’s rant earlier kept taking over my thoughts. Yes, I was an absent father to her, but I had a Kingdom to run and her mother wouldn’t leave the states. Yes, she was abducted under my orders, but her mother broke our deal knowing there would be consequences. I guess I could’ve sent her a birthday card or something. Would that have really made a difference though?I was lost in my thoughts when I heard a knock at the door pulling me back to reality. “Come in.” I said.Harold’s head popped in before coming completely in and shutting the door behind him. “Good evening sir. I have come with an update from the village.”I motioned for him to sit and he walked over and sat across from me and then cleared his throat.“Sir, I have some, not so good news? Maybe good news? I’m no
Seeley’s POV I looked at my watch and noticed that it was almost eight o’clock. The sun was already setting in the ocean. I had had an uneasy feeling ever since the conversation with Collin and finding out about some alleged fight. Yes I was planning on attacking the werewolves in America if I did not get my daughter back, but I had her so nothing was going to happen. Is that what he was talking about? “Koda. Office now.” I said threw the mind link as calmly as I could. It wasn’t five minutes later, there was a knock on my door and I ordered them in. “You called for me sir?” Koda asked. “Yes Koda. I got a job for you.” I motioned him in to have a seat. Koda shut the door behind him and then walked up to the chairs by my desk and sat down. He had a very serious look on his face. I could tell Alida’s threat earlier had to be a hit to his pride if not his big ass ego. Once Koda was seated, I let out a sigh and went on with the job I wanted him to do. I needed information and he was
Seeley’s POVWas she telling the truth? What if she’s not behind the attack itself and just knows about it and was getting people she knew wouldn’t survive to safety? How did she even know? I slammed my fist down on my desk out of frustration. Every time I talked to her, I only ended up with more questions than answers. Either she was really that good at hiding things or I was losing my touch in my old age. I highly doubt that it was the latter.I called Jax into my office and told him to prepare the troops. Although we were not sure of when or who would attack, I wanted to be prepared. Even if this was an empty threat, rather be safe than sorry. Jax never said a word while in my office, just nodded and took off. Then I heard threw the mind link for all section leaders to meet in the conference room.I called Reeva to come help me prepare for battle and I could tell she was nervous but we didn’t have any other choice. I t
