Travis POV

I knew I was going to have to stay strong to make it through this. However, when they walked me inside and showed me a metal chair that had rusted nails welded to the seat, I couldnโ€™t contain my shock. They had stripped me naked and shoved me down on the nails until it pierced my skin. No one should know what it felt like for a rusted nail to penetrate your taintโ€ฆ but I do.

They left me alone to sweat in the heat box. If this wasnโ€™t the most physiological torture Iโ€™ve ever been inโ€ฆ Ethan needs to up his training. As the world started spinning, I heard tires slowly crunch on the dirt road.

โ€œHere we goโ€ฆโ€ I whispered to myself.

โ€œWell, you are in luck!โ€ The Lion walked around the doorway and looked at me.

โ€œOh?โ€ I asked, trying to sound strong.

โ€œZach couldnโ€™t be here, but he gave me permission to handle things for him.โ€

โ€œWhy couldnโ€™t he be here?โ€ I was almost upset that he wasnโ€™t here. In the off chance that Ethan would make it in time, there might have been a chance. If I

    Ethan POVโ€œEvie said she was across from a park and a homeless man with a tent.โ€ I wasnโ€™t sure how many times I repeated myself, but I didnโ€™t want to forget it. Four black SUVS were flying down the ghetto streets of this forsaken city. The only people around here were homeless and druggies. Nothing good came from this part of town. โ€œTHERE!โ€ Damon pointed at a tent. Slamming on the brakes, Damon had to slam his hand on the dash to keep from flying through the windshield. โ€œGet out and search!โ€ I commanded. I was already halfway out of my seat. Looking directly across from it was a tall apartment building. The windows were broken with ripped sheets whipping through them. โ€œShe is probably on the ground level or basement.โ€ Damon said. Two teams ran into the building as I headed towards the basement. There wasnโ€™t any knocking. Kicking each door down as I searched for her. โ€œEVIE?โ€ I commanded in the mind-link. โ€œCome out.โ€ I turned to search for another apartment, but a small voice caught

    Grace POVโ€œI know Ethan gave you a job but you need to let me finish cleaning you up.โ€ Callie motherly glared at me. โ€œMy back is already healedโ€ฆโ€ Rolling my eyes, I sat up and showed her my back. โ€œYeah, itโ€™s already starting to scar. Are there any other wounds?โ€ Putting my shirt down, I looked back at Callie. โ€œNo.โ€ โ€œGraceโ€ฆ?โ€ Callie quested my honesty. โ€œI promise. That is it. Just my pride.โ€ Kyle was looking at his watch and pacing around. โ€œRelax, Kyle. Nothing is going to happen here.โ€ โ€œI know. I just donโ€™t like not being in the action.โ€ โ€œWhat did Ethan want you to do?โ€ Callie asked as she started putting away her supplies. โ€œOh, can you bring me my computer?โ€ I asked. Callie nodded and got up to get it. โ€œI overheard Vincent talking on the phone. He said there were some files that he wanted deleted. He didnโ€™t want me to see them so naturally, I downloaded what I could and now I need to figure out why he is hiding something from me.โ€ Kyleโ€™s jaw dropped. โ€œWhat?โ€ โ€œObviously, thi

    โ€œYou might have to do that. Make sure everyone else is paying the correct price. Shit, what is your brotherโ€™s pack paying?โ€ Kyle asked. โ€œHold on. I have to go into the server. This is just what I downloaded from Vincentโ€™s stuff.โ€ Since I didnโ€™t need to hide my tracks, I was able to get onto the server with my account password and login. Going to accounts payable, I pulled up his pack. โ€œIt seems he is paying the same rate that I charge anyone else.โ€ โ€œDo we pay?โ€ Callie asked.โ€œYou do. However, I did upgrade you for free.โ€ Callie smiled, but rolled her eyes. โ€œCan you charge Jax more?โ€ Kyle asked. โ€œShit. I wish. Everything is a flat rate. You sign a contract for so many years at a base rate. You pay to upgrade though. Every year I usually provide additional add ons you can do for additional amount. Those you can chose to opt out of or buy. There are requirements I enforce. Like you canโ€™t have your packโ€™s blueprints on your account. For instances like this. If we get hacked, they wonโ€™

    Ethan POVI felt bad for hanging up on Grace, but I needed to talk to the doctor. โ€œIs he okay?โ€ It took me three steps to cross the room. Evie was just a step behind me. โ€œHe has a long road ahead of him. I had to wire his mouth shut. He lost a few teeth, but nothing that will cause lasting damage. Basically, all his ribs were broken, and both lungs were collapsed. His orbital socket is fractured. Travis is lucky to be alive.โ€ โ€œI would like him transferred to a hospital in my territory.โ€ โ€œAs long as they can manage his conditions, I donโ€™t see why not. Are you providing transportation?โ€ โ€œI can.โ€ Part of me expected push back, but he didnโ€™t even hesitate. The doctor looked at his watch. โ€œIโ€™ll need about two hours to make sure he is stable enough to transport and to get him ready.โ€ โ€œSounds good. Thank you, Doc.โ€ I held out my hand to him.He looked at it briefly before accepting it. โ€œOf course. It was my pleasure. Iโ€™ll send a report home with you about the care I provided and what I

    Before I could respond, my phone rang. Pulling it out of my pocket, I saw it was Damon. Looking back up at Evie, I actually hurt to not be able to give her what she asked of me. โ€œThatโ€™s not how that works.โ€ Pressing accept, I walked out of the room and stood on the other side of the door. โ€œEthan.โ€ Damon sounded out of breath.โ€œWhatโ€™s going on?โ€ โ€œHowโ€™s Travis?โ€ Damon ignored my question.โ€œHe will live.โ€ That is all Damon needed. โ€œWe found the place they tortured him. The blonde guy wasnโ€™t here. We tried tracking them, but it seems a helicopter came and got them. The few people that were here didnโ€™t make it long into question before they died. John already did a number on them.โ€โ€œFuck.โ€ โ€œYeah. We tore down the building. Wasnโ€™t hard as it was almost down, anyway. This is a dead end. It seems this was more of a convenient spot that a location they normally used.โ€โ€œFuckโ€ฆ pack it up and go home. We are transporting Travis back to our pack.โ€ โ€œWe will come and follow as an escort.โ€ Damon

    Grace POVThe first thing I remember was the cold, empty bed beside me. My face was stiff, but it was healing. So, slightly opening my eye was a little harder than I wished it was. Ethan was gone and by the tempature, he had been gone for a while. โ€œEthan?โ€ Yawning, I opened the mind-link.โ€œGood Morning, sleeping beauty.โ€ Ethan found something funny.โ€œWhat time is it?โ€ โ€œAlmost 10am.โ€ Shooting up in bed, I looked at the clock on the bed-side table. Sure enough, it read 9:53am. โ€œIโ€™ve never slept in so late.โ€ โ€œYou needed the sleep. I hoped I didnโ€™t wake you when I left this morning.โ€ โ€œYou should have woken me.โ€ โ€œNope, you needed to sleep. Let your body heal faster that way.โ€ Ethan grunted like he was doing something heavy. โ€œYou need sleep, too.โ€ I said stubbornly as I got out of bed. Tossing the covers off me, I really had to pee. โ€œI slept in until 8am. That was pretty late.โ€ He grunted again.โ€œWhat are you doing?โ€ โ€œWorking out at the gym.โ€ โ€œGreat, Iโ€™ll be right there.โ€ I heard

    As much as I wanted to show him I was more than capable of doing this weight, that first set was a bitch. My arms shook as I slowly came down before going up.โ€œThat was oneโ€ฆโ€ Ethan kept his hands right below the bar. โ€œI can countโ€ฆโ€ My voice was strained as I forced myself to complete the set. One after another, I kept going. Only stopping after I hit ten. โ€œSee. Iโ€™m fine.โ€ My arms were already like jello as I sat up. Ethan leaned over the arm. โ€œOr you can just take it easy.โ€ โ€œI am taking it easy.โ€ Standing up, I started stretching. Catching my reflection in the floor to ceiling mirror, my scar stuck out like a sore thumb. The sound of a gun going on echoed in my mind as I relived that moment. The feel of the burn. The smell of my fleshโ€ฆ.โ€œYou are still beautiful.โ€ Ethan said quietly as he came up behind me. His words snapped me out of my flash back. โ€œItโ€™s not that.โ€ Shaking my head, I walked away from Ethan and sat back down on the bench. There were too many people around for us t

    โ€œOh!โ€ I had to put my hands on either wall to steady myself as Ethanโ€™s mouth moved down my stomach. Ethan grabbed my foot and placed it on the edge of a shelf. I knew what he was going to do, but my body still jumped when his tongue separated my folds. This wasnโ€™t a hungry session, but he took his time. His hand ran down my legs, making goosebumps erupt all over my body. My head fell back, letting the water rinse out the conditioner. The pressure built up in my body, making my legs shake. โ€œEthan!โ€ I groaned. โ€œNot yet!โ€ Ethan growled. Just as I was about to burst, he stood up and moved me to the other side. Only then did I open my eyes to see Ethan washing his body. His dick was rock hard, standing at attention. When he wasnโ€™t looking, I knelt down and grabbed his dick. He wasnโ€™t expecting it either. โ€œShit!โ€ His eyes popped open as my mouth wrapped around him. Instead of making me stop, his hand grabbed a handful of hair. He helped me move him in and out. Too soon, his blew his l

    โ€œCHRISTIAN!โ€ I yelled back. He laughed, as that was our thing. Ethan set me down when we got to the top. Christian instantly wrapped his arms around my legs. โ€œI missed you! You are getting so tall!โ€ โ€œHey, sis.โ€ Vincent walked up to me with his arm out. With my belly, I could only do a side hug these days.โ€œHow is my little nephew doing?โ€ Vincent shook Ethanโ€™s hand. โ€œVery happy where he is at.โ€ Vincent has been a little of a recluse this last year. Finding out the truth, being a full-time day and looking for a beta has kept him from coming around as often. Fortuantly, everyone has sympathized with him. They have really accepted him into our friendโ€™s group. However, Roxie and Zoey are on a kick to find him a mate. Vincent game me a smile and scooped Christian up. โ€œLetโ€™s go inside or we will miss the party.โ€ Ethan held the door for us before quickly resuming his spot next to me. The moment we walked in, my breath was caught in my throat. It was just like I imagined it to be. A larg

    1 year laterโ€œGrace! We got to go! Everyone is waiting for us!โ€ Ethan was standing at our bedroom door. โ€œIโ€™m COMING!โ€ I growled back. My swollen belly was ready to pop at any moment. Our little baby boy was loving kicking his mother in the lungs so much that he refused to leave. โ€œI can only move so fast!โ€ โ€œYou are the most beautiful pregnant personโ€ฆever.โ€ Ethan smiled at me as I walked out of the bedroom. The stretchy black evening gown clung to my body, really making my stomach look much skinner than I felt. From the back, you would never know I was pregnant, which confused me. My belly was very round, like a ball. โ€œThis is all your fault.โ€ Rolling my eyes at him, I couldnโ€™t help the smile that spread across my face. Ethan walked over and gave me his arm. โ€œThank you.โ€ โ€œJust thinkโ€ฆโ€ Ethan patted my hand. โ€œโ€ฆ. you get to do this many more times!โ€ Looking up and glaring at him, โ€œI will kick you in the nuts and end all of that.โ€ Ethan laughed at me.

    By the time we made it to the club, I had taken a few more shots, and the buzz was going. The club was bouncing. Music could be heard from outside. There was a line down the sidewalk and neon lights were flashing all around. This was the vibe that I was hoping for. โ€œEthan, I want to check on the computers. With everyone here, I havenโ€™t actually got to see it yet and I want to check it.โ€ I had to shout since the music was so loud and we werenโ€™t even inside. โ€œGrace, you are a little drunkโ€ฆ.โ€ Ethan raised his eyebrows at me. โ€œPlease? Iโ€™m not going to touch it. Just want to make sure itโ€™s okay.โ€ Grabbing his arm, I put on my most pathetic face I could.โ€ โ€œFineโ€ฆโ€ Ethan rolled his eyes, but smirked. Wrapping his arm around me, he lead the way inside. โ€œCallie, get everyone situated with drinks. We will catch up.โ€ Ethan instantly lead me away to his office. It was more packed than I had ever seen it. Granted, I had only been here like three times, but this was packed. More than once, we g

    โ€œWhat do you have that is the best with crab?โ€ Theresa thought for a moment. โ€œTry the crab trio. There are three different ways crab is cooked. I think one is the crab alfrado, a mushroom stuffed crab and just steamed crab legs with a pepper, garlic butter to dip it in.โ€ โ€œThat sounds perfect.โ€ โ€œGreat. Would you like your legs already de-shelled?โ€ โ€œYes, please.โ€ I said right as the guys came back. โ€œIโ€™ll have a crab cake, please.โ€ Jolene smiled at Theresa. Theresa returned the smile. โ€œFor you two?โ€ She looked at them. โ€œSeafood fried roll.โ€ Ethan sighed and downed his drink. โ€œI got another round coming.โ€ She said instantly. Ethan nodded and put his arm back around me. โ€œWhat did Vincent say?โ€ I asked Ethan in the mind-link, so I didnโ€™t hear what Nox, Stella or Rif ordered. โ€œWell, turns out they were all people that went missing states away. None were from the same state, but they were all scholars in hacking or something cyber. Vincent thinks Zach or Derek had placed them there

    Just as Ethan stood up, we arrived at the restaurant. I couldnโ€™t help the sly smile that spread across my face before bitting my lower lip. โ€œLetโ€™s go,โ€ Ethan said before clearing his throat. He gave me a little nudge to get off the bus. โ€œWhere are we?โ€ I asked as I stepped off. Ethan was quick behind me, wrapping his arm around my waist. โ€œThis is one I have wanted to bring you to since I met you. Itโ€™s a very upscale seafood place. I know your favorite food is crab and I think they will have what you want here.โ€ Ethan smiled down at me.โ€œI love this place!โ€ Callie squealed. โ€œTheir lobster is absolutely amazing!โ€ โ€œIโ€™ve never been here!โ€ Zoey grabbed Leoโ€™s hand, and they started the train to the front doors. โ€œWe have a reservation. Itโ€™s under Boone.โ€ Callie yelled from the back. By the time we walked in, the hostess walked off from the front. Zoey turned and smiled at us. I couldnโ€™t help but look around. There was a massive sword fish mounted on the wall. The lighting was low, dark

    After the house burnt down, we had to transport everyone back to their respected packs. However, all of our friends had to come back one last time to our pack and gather their belongings. Since they were already here, we had one last night together. Ethan set up a romanic evening that ended with everyone at the club for a night of dancing. All the girls were in my bedroom getting dressed. Callie had on a champain squence colored dress. It volumized her breast with a completely open back and only strings tolding it up. Her ass was about to hang out, but she looks amazing.Zoey had on a similar colored dress, but the top was more of a bra. Her stomach was open to a skirt that sinched at the side. Roxie was wearing a scarlett red dress. With long sleeves, the top was just enough fabric to cover her tits. It was an open stomach, but one side went down to a skirt that went to her calf. The other side had a slit that went to her hip, completely exposing her very toned legs. Stella was wea

    Vincent turned and looked at us. โ€œLetโ€™s go home.โ€ He whispered and walked past us. Christian was clinging to Vincent like his life depended on it. โ€œKeep your eyes closed, bud.โ€ He said as he walked out of the house. We all followed him. The battle was over and our warriors were collecting the dead. In the front was Derekโ€™s body, Zach and Adaline. There was a rather large pile of men off to the side and a more respectible line of men that were ours. Leo was barking order with Damon, but Stella caught my attention. She was standing over Derekโ€™s body with tears running down her face. Walking out of Ethanโ€™s arms, I came up to Stella. She met my eyes before looking down again. โ€œW-what happened?โ€ I hesitated before speaking. I wasnโ€™t sure how this was going to impact our friendship. Though it had already been rocky as it was. โ€œGrace?โ€ Rif walked up behind Stella. Putting a hand around his waist, he nodded. โ€œWhatever it is, just tell us.โ€ I knew I had everyoneโ€™s attention at this point.

    Grabbing a lock of hair, I twisted it in my fingers. โ€œYou know Vincent, she used Derekโ€™s weakness and let him believe for three years that he betrayed you.โ€ Vincentโ€™s hand wrapped around his neck. He squeezed hard enough to make her hurt but not enough to stop the breathing. โ€œWhat should I do? Kill her or put her in my dungeon to yearsโ€™ worth of torture?โ€ โ€œIโ€™m sorry! I can turn my life around and be the mother that Christian deserves. I only ever wanted to be a mate to you.โ€ She batted her eyelashes at Vincent. His grip tightened around her neck. โ€œNothing I do will be enough. It wonโ€™t be enough to vengue Derek, my dad or the years of head games you put on our son that Iโ€™ll have to fix.โ€ Tighter, he squeezed until his hand started shaking. โ€œI regret ever sleeping with you, ever touching you, or even meeting you. The only good thing in my life is Christian. Iโ€™m going to take your body and make a mockery of it. You will be an example of what it means to cross me. Iโ€™m more powerful than

    Ethan, Vincent, and I just stared at her with our mouths hanging open. โ€œDerek thought he betrayed Vincent. He did everything to keep Vincent out of danger and keep his kid safe and you were playing him.โ€ My anger was rising as her words sank in. โ€œYou let Derek live with this weight on him for years.โ€ Adaline shrugged. โ€œWho is Derek to me?โ€ She mirrored those words, knowing it was going to get under my skin. โ€œNow, my child is an heir to not only the mafia family, but to a very powerful wolf pack and a blood relative to a very profitable security business.โ€โ€œYou never wanted me to create a program. All this was a lie to get the three of us here.โ€ The truth came crashing down on me.Marco pointed his gun at me. โ€œYou are a very hard person to get ahold of. I told Zach to kidnap you by any means needed. He almost got you fucking killed. Iโ€™m happy you survived, but yes, however, Ethan was only part of it because he mated to you.
