I’m just angry—angry at myself for believing I can be saved. Vince was bold enough to interfere in the first place, and I’m grateful for that. Levi drives quietly, stealing peeks at me occasionally. We cross Malrock’s border, and my heart drowns.

I place both my hands underneath my stomach and blow a shaky breath. ‘This is it.’

As if sensing my pain, Levi’s shoulders rise and fall as he heaves, and his fist tightens on the steering wheel as we approach a curve on the road.

“Stop.” I blurt out suddenly.

Levi turns to me with knitted brows. “What?”

“Stop, please.” My words are rushed, and I fix a stern gaze on Levi’s.

Levi brakes, and we lean forward as the car reaches a quick standstill. Levi glances at me, the unspoken question written on his face.

“I’ll walk the rest of the way.” My voice is low, and I turn my head to fix my gaze ahead.

“But…” Levi starts, but I interrupt.

“It’s just up ahead.”

    VINCEA legion of questions swarms me on our quiet drive back home. As the car approaches the Alpha house, where I’m supposed to alight, I see Lola standing with Lori outside the door.I quickly turn away, eyes straight, and gesture forward with my hand to Welsh, who throttles, heading for the parking lot. Lola walks towards us, but the car revs past her. A sour taste fills my mouth—guilt for not offering an explanation, but she’ll forgive me. Welsh and Levi stay mute and frozen beside the car as I march to my office. I sit on my chair, my head clasped between my hands as I scramble for an excuse to disobey the Supremes. A gentle knock on the door startles me; it creaks open, and Lola emerges. My gaze moves over her shoulder, but she shuts the door.“She stayed back,” Lola says, pointing backwards.I blow a loud breath, an unusual unease filling me as I think of talking to Lori. “Garf was there,” I state, gaze fixed on Lola’s.Lola nods, exhaling softly. “Yeah, Welsh told me everyth

    VINCE“Yo, take it easy, man.” Levi, my third in command, speaks from the back seat.I briefly lower my eyes to the meter and grunt softly as I step on the throttle. Levi falls silent, and I’m grateful he finally understands. Welsh, my second in command and best friend, sits quietly beside me. He understands my fury in times like these.The next words that would escape my lips should be me roaring at Barrett or punching his face. Who would abuse a pregnant woman so much that she loses her baby?‘He deserves to die.’ Conan growls loudly in my head.I’m glad we share a side on this, but something flashes back in my mind. A feeling I hate to acknowledge. What if I snap and lose control? What if I end up hurting an innocent person?Only Barrett will pay for his crimes, along with that fool Gusto and any other wolf who stood by him. They’ll all face justice. My knuckles whiten as I clench the steering wheel. I cut sharply left, hearing Levi grunt as he slams into the door. I don’t look a

    LORI“I’ll need a few details,” Vince states.I sigh deeply, steeling myself to recount the last seven months of my life without letting emotions overwhelm me. My gaze drifts to the expansive green landscape outside the balcony, grounding me in the present. “Can I get some air, please?” I request.Vince nods quietly, then steps up to the bed, lifting me like a cracked egg, fragile and vulnerable to even the slightest misstep. He guides me to the balcony, where two sturdy patio chairs are facing outward.Vince helps me settle into the chair, and I exhale in relief as the soft, firm cushion hugs my back. I’m grateful he chose comfort over rigid seating. He sits quietly beside me, his gaze intent, the steady weight of his grey eye locking onto mine, making my body tense. “So what do you want to know?” I prompt, uncertain of his next question.“I’m guessing seven months and six days ago is when Barrett rejected you?” Vince speaks so casually, like it isn’t so serious.“Well, adding the

    LORIDistorted voices echo in my ears as I slowly regain consciousness. The voices fade when a low moan escapes my lungs, and I rub my hand against my eyes gently.“She’s awake.” A female voice whispers. “Call Vince, fast.”As my eyes can make out images, I see a man hurry out of the room. Slowly, I slide up against the soft, high headrest, and I feel a sharp pain at the back of my left hand. I grimace and observe the IV line I hadn’t noticed earlier.“Sorry about that.” The strange woman whispers and pushes the IV line stand closer to me.“How are you feeling, Lori?” She inquires.I shake my head slowly, replaying the last events I witnessed in my head, and I suck in a deep breath. The Strays.“I’m Lola.” The woman beams warmly, probably trying to help me relax. “Do you feel any internal pain?” I sigh deeply, nodding as I consider the room. Simple is the word that describes it, but the large bed stands out. Whoever leaves here must sleep roughly, I muse. Most likely belongs to one o

    VINCEI shouldn’t.Interfering in another pack’s matters is illegal, no matter how bad, especially when it involves the opposite sex. Only lone wolves are my concern, and she doesn’t seem to be one. I’m in wolf form; any involvement will be perceived as a threat. Barrett and I also do well to stay out of each other’s way.She’s pregnant.’ Conan, my wolf, growls. I try to calm Conan, but when she cries for help, he does a projectile leap from our spot across the road, where the woman is being dragged away. He lands in front of Barrett, who halts with a daring glare at Conan. I quickly regain control and shift back.“Stay out of this, Vince,” Barrett warns, his voice low.“What’s her offense?” I ask quickly, eyeing the woman whose face is drenched in tears and sweat.“It’s none of your business. Go back to your s…”“I dare you, Barrett.” I snap, feeling Conan stir to break loose. “Say that name, and I’ll show you why my wolf is called Conan.”Barrett falls quiet, the sound of the road

    LORIMy eyes snap open as the door to my room crashes against the wall. There she is—my nemesis and, unfortunately, my sister—Celine, as confident as ever.“Get your dumb ass up.” She screams. “You worthless tramp.” This has been my life since the day Celine chose to turn it upside down. All it took her was one lie, and everything turned to hell for me.I rise slowly from the narrow bed I’ve been confined to for the last seven months, gathering what little strength I have left. Still groggy, I lift my head to face Celine. Her hand strikes my face with such force that my ear rings sharply. “You dare look into my eyes, bitch?” Celine snaps. I lower my head, letting my hair fall over my face, concealing the tear that trails down my left cheek. I quickly blink it away, desperate to shield myself from any more of Celine’s scorn.“Go clean the living room before Barrett returns.” She orders. “And the rooms upstairs.”Barrett, once my mate, is now my biggest nightmare. His rejection was n
