LOGINWith the device turned off, Talia closed her eyes to sense her surroundings. Everything in close proximity was clear, but that didn’t stretch far before images in her mind became blurry again.’Kitten! Kitten!’ Drake’s voice sounded in Talia’s head, and she nearly teared up at the anguish that came with it.’I’m here, Drake.’’WHERE ARE YOU!?’ There was a relief, but the anger came quickly to cover it up.Drake, Maya, Caden, Keith, and Caleb reached the packhouse only to discover that Talia went out to investigate the disappearance of guards.Didn’t he tell her to stay put!?Drake found Ivy, Lily, and Mila with ease. From them, Drake heard that Lulu and Talia went into the forest, and he couldn’t find them in the direction Lily pointed at. Since then, Drake was running around aimlessly, hoping to find Talia and doing his best not to lose his mind while tearing into the bodies of a few rogues who were unfortunate enough to be noticed by Drake and his unit.’Goddamit, kitten! Are you se
"You want us to let you go?" Lulu asked the rogue incredulously. "What’s to say you won’t come tomorrow in another attempt to kidnap my Luna?"He smirked. "You are right. We will probably return. In order to prevent that, Luna Talia should join us now." He spoke to Talia. "Our task is only to bring you back, to talk. This is not kidnapping; it’s a friendly invitation."Lulu crossed her arms over her chest, giving her two peaks a push up. She was not bothered by her nakedness."Do you think my Luna is stupid to go with you?" Lulu asked.He shrugged. "What do you suggest? Should we sit here until breakfast? What will that achieve? You know we won’t talk. We can’t. If you hand us over to Alpha Maddox, he will interrogate us and that will end up with him letting us go, assuming we survive. And we know that Luna Talia won’t kill us."Talia didn’t hear what the guy said. She was visually inspecting the bodies and four rogues that were still breathing."Why is your leader not here? Did he se
"I want to know how you are concealing your presence," Talia demanded from rogues that were pressed on the ground in front of her. Those bastards sneaked on her more than once now. Even Liseli couldn’t pick them up.Seeing that no one was willing to talk, Talia stared down at the closest one."Speak!" She shouted, and the guy groaned as the light around Talia increased.’Let me get into his mind,’ Liseli said.’Fine,’ Talia agreed. ’Make it quick.’With Liseli taking charge of interrogating enemies, the silvery glow around Talia subsided, leaving only her eyes to pulsate in silver light.Talia could see images flashing in her mind, memories that were not hers. There was some rubbish, guy-talk about women and drinking, and found out that the rogue in question was planning to head to the human city tomorrow and visit a nightclub there.Out of the important stuff, Talia picked up that the rogues had orders to come to a specific location and to wait for a signal. She saw him sneaking betw
Lulu’s transformation into her wolf form was not complete when her fangs dug into the thigh of one rogue. She jerked her head, ripping the piece of his flesh before dashing to her next opponent.Talia was not idle either. She was kicking and punching, taking advantage of the fact that rogues were reluctant to harm her, confirming that the guy was not lying. They didn’t want to harm her.But why?They already confirmed they were aware of her identity as Drake’s mate. Why would they kidnap her? And how did they know she was here? Drake and Talia came early, and they were careful to act as Alpha Drake and Alpha Natalia when they were out of their room. Sure, people might think that the two Alphas were chummy, but not to the point of knowing that Talia was Drake’s mate.Actually... the rogues didn’t say they knew Talia was here with Drake. Their words were about knowing that she LEFT with Drake. Did that mean someone from the Dark Howlers pack was working with rogues? To make things worse
Talia and Lulu moved stealthily through the foliage.Lulu was keeping her eyes on Talia who moved soundlessly without leaving a trace. It confirmed that when Keith praised Talia how she could compare with their top scouts was not just empty talk.Lulu wondered what other skills Talia had. Surely, as someone who was the Alpha of the Midnight Guardians pack, Talia was not a simple person.Talia raised her hand to get Lulu’s attention. They were only about thirty feet away from their targets and Talia was silently chanting how this was the right thing to do.Sure, insecurities crept into Talia’s mind about Lulu, and Talia was determined to confirm beyond doubt if Lulu was a traitor by putting her guard to the test. It was one of those things, keep your friends close and your enemies closer, and so far, Lulu performed well.Talia noticed that Lulu was looking at her curiously, and this reinforced Talia’s concern that communication will be a problem. Lulu said that she will follow Talia’s
Jordan was an experienced General of the Spring Leaf pack. Normally, he would be in charge of strategizing, but this was a room full of high-ranked members, females outnumbered him heavily, and he didn’t dare to act presumptuously.No one told Jordan about the situation, but even with Luna Tatiana sitting at the center, everyone was looking at Talia, so he knew who was the boss here."What’s the plan?" Jordan asked while looking at Talia.Talia glanced at the people present, and she could see that Lulu and Pierce were communicating via mind-link. Talia approved. The more Pierce knows, the more useful he will be, and talking through mind-link was much more efficient compared to using words.Talia summarized for the newcomers, "The guards who were stationed around the packhouse are not in their places and can’t be contacted. We want to check the area and see what happened. Stay alert, as there might be enemies hiding. Since we have four additional people, let’s form two groups. We will

In the guest bedroom… Drake pushed Marcy away from him and Marcy fell on her butt unceremoniously. "Who is that girl?", Drake asked while buttoning up his pants. Marcy was confused. "What girl?" "The one with towels! She left towels in the bathroom and left!", Drake roared and jabbed his hand i
