I don't know how long I was looking at the door before it was pushed open. The force behind it almost causing it to fall from its hinges.

Jayson looked pissed off. I'm not talking pissed off in that he wants to smash up a few trees, I am talking pissed off in that he wants to rip heads from bodies. Not that I could blame him, I am sure it was Blake's job to begin the torture, but instead he's demanding my release.

"What the fuck is going on here?" Jayson shouted, his eyes moving to Blake who was still eyeing me like I was the most wonderful thing in the world. If I didn't have a set of silver handcuffs around my wrists at this moment, I would have shifted and probably killed him.

“You wouldn't have done that though because I wouldn't have allowed you to touch him.” My wolf voicing her opinion, her unwelcome opinion which wasn't going to change what I thought of Blake.

"Funny story. Turns out your Beta is my mate. Hilarious, right?" I found myself laughing as the words left my mouth but it would appear Jayson didn't have a sense of humour since he just glared at me. I swear, if looks could kill, then I would be dead right now.

"You kill my men. I couldn't care less if you were my mate, there's no way in hell I am releasing you," Jayson snapped.

"You know, given the choice between freedom in your pack and torture, torture wins every single time." I shrugged, my eyes never leaving the blue ones of the asshole who called himself an Alpha. His previously blue ones were slowly turning an impressive shade of black, but that still wasn't enough to scare me.

I had met and fought bigger Alphas than himself. Sure, he ruled over the second biggest and powerful pack in the country, but there were Alphas out there who were just as feared as he was; he would be an idiot to think otherwise.

Take Alpha Eric Jones for example. He is the Alpha of the Dark Rise pack and has shed just about as much blood as Jayson has in his reign, despite the fact Eric's pack is one the smallest in the country. Still, I fought him and he released me under the promise that I wouldn't cross his borders again - a promise I kept, other than the time I deliberately caught myself caught so that I could ask Eric for help.

But that's a story for another time. A story which is best time when a more appropriate time called for it to be told.

"You will speak. Even if I have to drag you to the point of death to make you speak," Jayson retorted. I could tell that he was doing everything within his power not to shift which is why I was having this much fun.

"You should try something different. Alpha Parker and Alpha David already did that to me." I chuckled, the amusement covering my face and I wasn't even attempting to hide it.

"You are really pushing your luck," Jayson replied.

"Seriously? I am only just doing that? I must be slacking," I said, the sarcasm dripping for every single word I spoke.

“If he kills us, I am coming back, and I will kill you again.” My wolf was pretty much growling in annoyance at me now. I am sure if it was a real person then it would have slapped sense into me by now but, since it was trapped under the surface, I could continue to ignore its advice.

"I want you to leave, Blake," Jayson said through gritted teeth, his eyes never leaving my own.

"Yeah, Blake. Jayson would like a friendly word with me about my reasons for killing eighty of his men," I stated humorlessly as I threw my leg across my knee and folded my arms the best that I could, showing him that he didn't really scare me all that much.

"You know, sixty-five of those men had mates and thirty of them had pups. I find it hard to believe that you don't care about that." Jayson smiled.

Damn. Give the man a medal. He actually managed to smile, though it disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.

"I'm a rogue. I will kill without thought. I don't have the time to care and I certainly don't have the time to pretend I actually have a heart." I shrugged carelessly.

"What I would like to know is how the hell you managed to overpower some of the best trained fighters, without any help?" Jayson mused and I took a moment to look across at Blake.

He was probably only an inch or two taller than I was, his dirty blond hair was all over the place from the number of times he had run his hands through it while we were waiting for Jayson to arrive and I would be lying if I said his muscles didn't look impressive in the shirt he was wearing.

He literally looked like he was ready to attack Jayson the moment he put a finger on any part of my body. His gaze following every single movement Jayson made, if I didn't hate him and kind of want him dead, then I probably would have appreciated his protection a little more.

"Who says I took them down without any help?" I returned the question without hesitation.

"There's not a man out there is stupid enough to help a rogue. They especially wouldn't dare help a rogue who was residing so close to the border of another territory," Jayson replied with confidence.

"If that's the case then I guess I took them all down on my own. Me, a week she-wolf who has been living the life of a rogue for ten years, single handedly killed eighty of your best fighters. Men who had been trained from the age of twelve to fight." I grinned at the simple fact.

Jayson stalked across the room to where I was sitting and I could feel the anger radiating off him with each step he dared to take towards me. I almost welcomed the violence which he was about to use only, the second he raised his hand, Blake was already in front of me and had taken the hit for himself.

"Don't touch her." I heard Blake growl. I looked between the two men and I was sure Jayson would win in a fight, but then Blake was pissed because he had dared to touch me, so I wouldn't put it past him to be able to kick Jayson's ass right now.

"Leave," Jayson stated.

"I want her released," Blake demanded, his hands clenching into fists at his sides, like he was just about ready to punch Jayson for demanding that he leave.

“This is your fault. You should have kept your mouth shut.” My wolf reprimanded me and I simply shook my head, but I knew that wasn't going to be enough for her, not when Blake was in danger and she could feel the things he could feel.

This whole mate thing was really fucked up. I didn't want to feel his pain or know that he cared about me the moment he laid eyes upon me in this room. I didn't even want to belong to this man, but there was something inside me which was preventing me from fully rejecting him as my mate.

Perhaps it was the knowledge that I wouldn't get a second chance at this and it would be pointless to waste it now I knew who the hell he was or perhaps it was because part of me knew what was coming and knew he was going to suffer the very same as I was or perhaps I was just intrigued enough to hang on to a little bit of hope for the two of us.

Whatever the reason was, full-blown rejection wasn't even an option. Not now that I had seen him for the first time because a connection had been formed, I simply wasn't going to act on the connection in the way people expected me to act.

"There's no way in hell that's going to happen. I want information from her and then she can spend the rest of her days locked down here, like the rest of the scum we capture," Jayson's voice was so full of hatred and venom that I was surprised he didn't kill me right now.

"Scum? That's a new one. Not heard that before," I spoke up to remind the two of them that I was still here while they were having a battle of egos with each other.

"If you even think of touching her, I will kill you Jayson. That's not even a threat, that's a damn promise," Blake managed to say. I was impressed to see that he was brave enough to take a step closer to the man who had the power to banish him if he continued to speak out of term.

"I do like a good murder. Can I have front row tickets?"

“Will you keep that mouth of yours shut. You're being childish and petty now.” I was getting more and more pissed off with the words of my wolf. Just because I couldn't shift didn't mean she had the right to comment on every little thing about me.

"The only person who will be dying is you," Jayson finally pushed Blake away with such force that when Blake hit the wall behind him, a new dent appeared and I must admit I did like a man with strength.

"Either kill me or stop threatening to do it. It's just boring now," I replied. I didn't have the time to register what was happening before I felt Jayson's hand around my throat, his strength pinning me against the wall as grip tightened and I struggled for breath.

I could see black dots appearing in the corner of my eyes as tears blurred what little vision I actually had left. I was amazed it had taken this long for Jayson to lose his temper, but I was impressed at his tolerance level for my sarcasm.

I was sure he continued to tighten his grip and the black dots soon vanished. I was greeted with the welcoming sense of darkness and I didn't bother fighting against it. For the first time since I formulated my revenge plan, I didn't bother fighting against the inevitable.

    MAXWELL I didn't even realize the room had fallen silent, until I looked across at the stage to see my mother was now standing up there with Uncle Luca one side of her and Jackson the other. Michael was at the back with Shantel standing in front on him, his arms wrapped around her waist, with Aurora on his left and his twin sisters, Kailyn and Trinity who were fourteen and looked exactly like their mother to the point that it would have been difficult to tell who the twins were and who Aurora was if she had aged at the same rate as a werewolf, standing on his left — it's a shame that Daniel wasn't here. I did actually miss him and hope that he would make an appearance, but I guess he was either happy with his mate or he was still searching for her. Uncle Link was off to the side of the stage with his arm wrapped around Aunt Jamie, who actually was in her thirties but still had the face of a teenager, while Uncle Link must have been in his late fifties by now but looked just as good

    MAXWELL "Ah, Maxwell, my man, you ready for what's about to happen?" Michael grinned as he threw his arm around my shoulder. I am pretty sure he was more excited about tonight then I was, then again, he was about to become Beta in place of my mum's best friend, so I guess he had good reason to be in the mood that he was. "Don't call me my man, I've told you about that before," I chuckled. Despite there being an eight year age gap between Michael and myself, I actually got on better with him than I did with Daniel, because of the amount of time he had spent looking after me when I was younger; I became quite attached to him when I was six and he started looking after us every Saturday night so my parents could have some time alone. Nicole was close to Abby, but that wasn't surprising given that they were practically the same age, but it got to the point where the two of them were inseparable. You would never find one without the o

    "This is Blake, my mate, and these are Maxwell and Nicole. I guess I should formally welcome you to Darkness." I pointed between Blake and the twins in turn, still watching her face in an effort to gage her reaction, but there was nothing and I didn't know whether that was a good thing or a bad thing; I would like to think that it's a good thing and that she knows she's got nothing to worry about. I wasn't going to be a problem for her, not when I had Blake, and I didn't think that she was going to be a problem for me either, not when she had Luca and was going to have fun with three kids by the looks of things. "Hi. I'm Daniel and I like Lego. I am daddy's favourite and he loves me more than he loves Michael, that's Michael by the way, and I'm going to be four next month. Daddy told me that I'm going to be a big boy and-" "Daniel. Calm down." Luca chuckled as he picked his son up and held him on his hip. Daniel wrapped his arms around his father's neck, kissing him on the cheek, wh

  • ROGUE   Chapter 80

    ELLIE "How do you think they're going to turn out?" I rocked Maxwell in my arms, Blake had a sleeping Nicole in his own and the boys were having a competition to see who could colour without going outside of the lines; it had been a rather peaceful afternoon and I think that had something to do with the fact Luca wasn't around. As much as I loved him, he was bringing the whole mood down with his constant snapping and unnecessary arguments with either myself or one of the boys, and I knew that's because he was such a stubborn pig who didn't want to get what was rightfully his; he wanted to do the right thing and let her go. But, what was the right thing for her, wasn't the right thing for him and it was beginning to show. I didn't mean to interfere, and I sure as hell didn't expect him to shout at me, but someone needed to point the idiot in the right direction otherwise he never would have done anything about his mate. He would h

  • ROGUE   Chapter 79

    LUCA I didn't even need to think about where I was going because my feet seemed to take me there on their own, they knew where we were going and they wanted to get their quicker than I was anticipating; it was almost like they were more excited than I was to get what belonged to us. My wolf hadn't stopped dancing around my head and he continued to let out both howls and yips of happiness in the back of my head. It always made things so much easier knowing that you had the support of your wolf, not that I ever doubted his reappearance once we got to finally meet our mate properly, but he had been unnervingly quiet since I decided that I wasn't going to go after the girl who was made for me.I wasn't even going to lie, I was still shocked that I had been given a second chance, I was even more shocked that it had happened as quickly as this; it had barely been a week since I rejected Charlotte and I was already being given another ch

  • ROGUE   Chapter 78

    LUCA "So, let me get this straight, you want to break my mate up with her boyfriend by pretending that you've been sleeping with him?" I asked Ellie. I know that she was only trying to help me but I didn't want her to ruin someone else's relationship just for the sake of my own happiness. She was my best friend and I know that she just wanted the best for me but I refused to let her do something she would live to regret in the end, especially when she came to live in the pack with me and Ellie had to face her every single day knowing what she had done. "You got it," Ellie grinned proudly. "Yeah. That's not going to happen," I told her without breaking eye contact and I noticed Blake nodding in agreement with me from the corner of my eye. I knew that he wasn't happy with the plan from the expression which he had been wearing and the look of murder which was in his eye as she spoke about anothe
