LOGINDamien's POVI felt a knot tying my stomach as I worried over her, my heart ached as I sensed the anger that crackled in the air.Her fangs were out and she was barely standing properly in that position.However, I stayed calm, just spreading my arms at her, to fall into them as I wanted to be a safe harbor for her in the storm.She was crawling out and as though battling with herself, she suddenly lunged at me.Her hot breath washed over me like a foul wind and I gasped.I didn't want to fight back, but her sharp claws almost left a signature on my cheeks, and I swatted my face aside, flinging her gently aside.She didn't stumble, as my muscles coiled ready to spring again. Her eyes were fixed on me intently."Look, princess, I won't hurt you," I whispered low and then locked eyes with her.I raised my arms in a futile attempt to ward off the attack, but she lunged at me again, her jaws snapping mere inches from my face.I stumbled backward, as my heart raced and she circled me, grow
Rosie's POVI raked my left brow, running out of patience as Aria kept looking at me from the window.He wasn't picking up his calls and I squeezed my lips.It turns out that Harry requested he wanted to come home, and the hospital was fine with that, as we had a family doctor who'd come check him up and do the necessary treatment.Right now, I've put him to sleep with the boys and I got outside the garden precisely just to make a phone call to Damien.I scoffed, swearing at the phone like I was looking at him."He didn't even call," I said, growling in anger as I imagined he'd be with his women.Turns out, when he took me over to the shop, he got me a new phone, but then, I decided to use Cadence's phone to contact Harry.His contact was the only one I had for now, and he saved it as "Heartbeat."He said he'd call... It'd been 8 hours now or did he figure out I lied to him and then suddenly wanted to ghost me?"P
Austin's POVIf only she'd look at me again, with trust, and those eyes that sparkle when she looks at me.It gives me a kind of longing. However, she just doesn't understand a thing and keeps blaming me.I don't mind if she gets mad at me all the time, but one thing is certain, I'd take her with me."Friends," Damien suddenly repeated as the word sounded strange to him and yet again, his voice left me drifting away from my memories and back to him."Yes," I guaranteed, looking at him with dreamy eyes as I heaved a sigh. He let out a side smile and then nodded."At least I'm not alone, I have you, my women and my Luna," he said with so much pride and emotion in his tone now.I also offered a faint smile that didn't cross my throat as we were staring at each other now."Are you going to betray me... eventually?" he asked, and he was so ridiculous.Who exposes to their prey that they'd betray them?"What's wrong?" I asked as he looked sick, his face had turned pale now, and that glow ha
Adnar's POVFive minutes and forty-five seconds left on that timer. The red numbers kept counting down while I moved along the warehouse walls looking for any weak point we could exploit. My ribs hurt so badly that each breath felt like someone was driving nails into my chest. I ignored it though because stopping to acknowledge the pain would not help anyone.The ventilation system ran along the entire perimeter of the warehouse. I could see where the ducts connected to different rooms through the walls. If we could access those connections we might be able to find another way out instead of forcing Natasha through that narrow shaft."There has to be something," I said mostly to myself.Sarah was on the other side of the warehouse moving old crates that had been stacked against the wall. Eli stayed near the ventilation opening in case we needed to reconsider that option. Natasha stood close to me even though I had not asked her to. Every few seconds her hand would reach out like she w
Rosie's POVAria paces to and fro the detention cell, Cadence bangs the rod and Xandra sits in a corner, staring at the stained, peeling wall.It's like a nightmare as neither of us understood what was happening.My voice was strained from screaming as there was no interrogation, and we've been kept locked up without proper questions, no lawyer either.They treated us like plagues.The more I tried to think of who planted wolfsbane in my kitchen, the more I got jinxed.My heart panics over a thousand things, and my face turns paler; my fingertips were cold as the shock of earlier hadn't left me.I ran those fingers through my hair, leaning on the bar rods, my eyes scanning my team.There weren't words of encouragement I hadn't put down just for them to believe me that we'd get out.However, we've spent 3 hours here and the public must have started some controversies about our shop.I can't help but worry over my boys. I want to see them, to close their eyes and ears from the news, not

Amelia's POV.The ride to the hospital felt longer than it should have been. Marcus drove in silence, his eyes occasionally flicking to the rearview mirror like he was checking for threats that didn't exist.I pressed my fingers against the window, watching the city blur past. My chest felt tight w
[Rosie's POV]"That talk sure doesn't look friendly, it's like he's stressing you" Colton said letting out a soft sigh and I fussed."Where are we going? Is the house under siege too because of the guy who is sick in the head?""Chris! That's no way to talk about him, you saw what happened earlier,
