NARRATIVE POV

The cold stickiness of the blood from her head drew her focus now. She ran her slender finger along the crack in her skull. There should have been pain, but there wasn't.

The smaller wolf stepped forward and licked the stickiness from her fingertip, startling her. The wolf leaned in and continued to lick the residue on her temple, cleaning her wounds.

She sat still. Unsure if she should enjoy the sensation it was stirring or be frightened.

Her eyes drifted to her twisted leg.

A memory flashed again—a man. A large man pointed down at a crying and pleading teenage girl; he was stomping on the now twisted leg.

Her leg.

She was the pleading teenage girl. She remembered now.

She leaned forward, feeling a pinch in her side. She ignored the annoyance and captured the twisted leg between both hands. Snapping it straight and setting it properly.

The wolf to her right whimpered at the gesture. Her eyes snapped to the whimpering wolf. It inched closer, offering comfort.

When she ran her fingers through its thick, coarse coat, the feel of the fur sparked something in her. What, she wasn't sure.

Another wolf nudged forward, asking for attention like the others. Her trembling, clammy fingers stretched out, reaching for the third wolf before her.

Where are they hers? She tilted her head to the side in confusion.

Again, she took in the surroundings. There was nothing else. No one else was around. Just her and these three wolves.

Get up! The voice hissed again, pushing her to her feet.

As she struggled to her feet, everything dislocated or separated snapped back into its proper place within her body. A sharp electricity coursed through her, like a battery charging her.

The hole in her chest that she wanted to explore had healed. The skin had closed the hole. The crimson stain and stiffness of the material were the only reminders of what once was there.

The wolves stood with her. They flanked her side protectively.

She stiffly stepped towards the doorway of the abandoned warehouse, the wolves matching her staggered pace. She stared down at the door handle in confusion for a while before reaching to pull it open, releasing them into the wilderness.

The brightness of the daylight stung her eyes, causing her to take a retreating step back with a vicious hiss. Her hand went up to shield her sensitive eyes.

A wolf's growl drew her attention.

The growl wasn't for her. No. The wolf charged forward with a growl to find what had assaulted her, causing her to hiss in pain and discomfort. The wolf did not realize it was the sun itself.

Ignoring her dry, sensitive eyes, she reached out, snapping her fingers, commanding the wolf to fall back into line. The growling stopped, and the tips of her fingers were met with the warm sensation of the wolf's lapping tongue.

She sighed and pushed herself to step outside the dark shelter into the bright, unforgiving light of the high overhead sunshine.

The dirt gravel below was scattered with rushed footsteps, both male and female. Deep, turned-up tire treads indicated a quick departure, perhaps.

Where did those observations come from? She wasn't sure. Her head buzzed.

A black SUV flashed in her mind.

She was inside it with two people—an older woman and a young man driving. They were chatting in hushed whispers in the front while she saw herself sitting in the back, lost in the details of the passing scenery.

Her body swayed with the jerked stop of the SUV in her memory.

"We're here," a man's voice echoed in her head.

She looked around the empty space, looking for the voice, forgetting it was a flash of memory. She was alone. Her wolves sat patiently beside her as she worked through her memories and reality.

Her head tilted, she watched the SUV from her memory park along the side of the dirt space. Her legs stiffly carried her to where she remembered exiting the SUV. Old tire tracks remained.

She stood there frozen. I waited for more memories, but none came.

A growl came behind her, and she found one of her wolves had come out of the long grass with a bag in its mouth.

She crouched down, claiming the bag from the wolf. She couldn't figure out its importance or the mechanics of opening it with her staggering motor skills, but the wolf gave her a sense of necessity. She put her slender arms through the holes of the straps and wore it on her back.

Another wolf yipped in front of her—a sign to follow.

Her body jerked with a phantom tremor. Her feet dug into the loose gravel, and she stepped forward to follow the wolf's lead away from the abandoned building, which had been her resting place.

    NARRATIVE POV Get up! The voice nudged in her head, but the darkness and chill enveloping her were too welcoming.A pack of domestic wolves surrounded the body of the deceased teen. Their fur was stained with her sticky, spilled body that coated the cement floor she lay cold and unmoving on. Each wolf took turns nipping at her bloated, clammy flesh, some breaking skin.The blood on their snouts added a touch of feral to their already intimidating appearance.The smallest of the three wolves walked forward and licked the wounds on her lifeless face. Her head was cracked open; there was no healing to be seen taking place on the body they stumbled upon.It was in their nature to devour the flesh of prey found. Dead or alive, they were hungry but were called to this area for a purpose.The larger male wolf that flanked the body's left side took another bite into the arm of the deceased teen. The cold blood slowly drips out. There was no life in the body left. A simple reminder that the s

    BETA CARTER POVWhen Lindy and I arrived at the packhouse, we stayed inside the truck to collect ourselves before heading in. I knew that by then, the dinner hall would be cleared out, and most of the house would be moderately vacant."Have you had any luck yet?" I looked at the truck's passenger side, where Lindy was using her cell phone."No. It's not ringing anymore; it’s sending me straight to voicemail now.""Someone turned her phone off. Fu.ck!""CC wouldn't ghost our calls," Lindy stated with concerned certainty."I know she wouldn't. Especially yours.""What are we going to do? We should be out there searching for her." Lindy's panicked voice pinched higher."We need to start by staying calm. Wolves can detect our emotions, baby. We don't know who is involved and what is happening. We will relay everything we know to Kane, and he will send out a patrol group to search for her. Then I will drop you off at home in case she heads there. You'll keep trying her cell while you're th

    BETA CARTER POV"Hello?" I called out after Lindy, and I entered the Beta house."We're in here, Tony." Kim's voice called out, the sound coming from the family room.We found a large group of curious smiles inside the room—almost unnerving, if I had to be honest. Lindy stayed slightly tucked behind me as we stepped into the room.Kim's expression dropped instantly when her eyes landed on Lindy holding me."What the fu.ck is she doing in my home?" she hissed, springing to her feet. Jealousy was fueling her irrational advance on us with the vicious intent to confront my mate.I felt Felix push through the bond, letting out a warning growl as we tucked Lindy closer behind us. "Think wisely, Kim. I'll rip you to shreds if you touch her." The threat was real. The room felt heavy."I told you I don't want her in my home. It's disrespectful to the family.""You want to compare disrespect?" I challenged back."Mom! Dad! Enough. Mom, sit down." Matthew intervened, trying to calm both of us do

    BETA CARTER POVAfter our frantic, intimate claiming and cleansing within the shower, we dressed and headed out to run the errands needed for the day.I chuckled as I watched Lindy, rattled with nerves, the entire drive to the old Beta house. She wasn't worried about how Kim would receive the divorce paperwork. Kim was aware that these papers were coming; the farce of a marriage needed to come to an end, but Lindy was nervous about how Carissa would handle the idea of being adopted officially and her becoming a stepmother to her.The thoughts ranged from tears of happiness to bitterness because she would be considered inadequate as a parent.Lindy couldn't have her children, but she loved spending time with Carissa. They were like kindred spirits. Both were looked down on through no fault of their own, and this understanding bonded them quickly.She just hoped that Carissa saw it that way and that it wasn't just for the show to catch a Beta male. She adored Carissa and thought of her

    BETA ANTHONY CARTER (CARTER) POVI sat in my office at home while Lindy was downstairs doing her workout. I enjoyed watching her do her yoga the most.A smile spread across my face at just the thought of going down and joining her with some downward dog stretches.Felix, my wolf, agreed hungrily.“Soon, buddy,” I said with a chuckle, trying to calm the horny wolf within.We had to finish up the paperwork for the day before we allowed ourselves to become distracted by our lust-inducing girlfriend.She is not a girlfriend; she is our mate! Felix growled in disagreement.I couldn't agree more. Lindy was everything we had ever wanted in a mate, and if it wasn't for her lack of a wolf, I was certain we would have been true mates. The connection, the bond, was unbelievably strong. She made me want to be a better man—a better wolf.She pushed me to see the errors in my misguided ways. I made many mistakes, but slowly, with Lindy's guidance, I made the changes to fix them.The most important

    CARISSA POV*Possible trigger: Violence towards the FL, Abuse and Murder*What was inside, however, was my mother, with a snide expression of annoyance, and my smirking sister, Brittany, and Ryan Davis, our future Alpha."What the hell took you so long, man?" Ryan hissed in a bored tone."Princess here wanted to freshen up with some fucking lipgloss." Matthew spat with an eye-roll for punctuation."What?" Brittany laughed darkly. "Dear sis, you can't pretty up a pig for the slaughter." She crouched down and spat her words of hate. A gleam in her eyes sent a chill down my spine."Why are you all doing this? What is all of this?" I steadied my voice, attempting to push myself back up to my feet.Matthew leaned forward, not to help me, but to push me back down. The group laughed as I cried out, startled."You ruined everything." Our mother finally spoke. Her face twisted with disgust."You did, dear sis. A stain. A blemish on our family." Brittany added with a flip of her blonde hair. Sh

    CARISSA POVMatthew opened the door for me, and when I stepped out, I was somewhat confused by the surrounding scene. We weren't at some fancy building location. We were at what looked like an old warehouse in the middle of nowhere."I'm confused. What is this? Where are all the people?" I asked. I looked at my mother, and she shook her head in annoyance at the question."It's a surprise, remember. They parked behind the building." She began leaving Matthew and me behind and walking to the building—our invitation in her hands.I looked at Matthew again. "This doesn't make sense."Something about this wasn't settling right with me. Why would we all wear formal clothes to arrive at a dirty abandoned warehouse? If the cars were to be hidden, then why did they park out front alongside the tall grass and the ditch?I had too many questions, and I knew Matthew was watching them flash across my face through my expressions."Let's just get inside; it'll all make sense once we do. Don't worry.

That was when our pack discovered the truth.They also discovered, thanks to Brittany and her pursuit to salvage her own image, that I was a bastard affair offspring; my birth father was unknown.
