RohanI killed the engine as I stopped at the gates before stepping out of the car. There, I found Jarred talking to two guards by the gates. I knew them very well. They were Hansel and Harrison. Fraternal twins. When Harrison spotted me, their conversation ended and Jarred walked up to me. “What’d you got for me, Jarred?” I asked. Jarred sighed with a smile on his face. “Well. Nothing so far,” he replied. I rolled my eyes at that. What else should I have expected? There was nothing I could do. They were gone. Left without a trace. Just like every other time. “Last night Harrison and the rest of the patrol team had caught them just a few yards outside our borders. They went after them, but they were faster than us, Rohan.”I clenched my jaws at that. No. That couldn’t be true. If they were adapting, it would be too late for us to stop them. We had to end this quickly, or I would risk losing more than just Rachel. “Where did you find them?” I asked. “They were lingering just by
DamonA few hours ago. The car engine came to a halt and my dad stepped out of the car. He was scratching his stubble as he rushed towards the house. I was standing on the porch, the blue above me buzzing annoyingly and my hand raking through my hair in frustration. She had disappeared with the baby. I was still finding it hard to believe. I thought that she was weak. I never thought that she would do something like this. No. Of course, she wouldn’t have done this all by herself. My mother must have planted this thought in her head. And she had run along with it. That was why she had met Caroline that night. They had plotted this together. She had taken her there. I stomped my foot in rage and the wood groaned underneath me. I cursed out into the night as my dad made it up the stairs. “What is it, Damon? What happened?” He asked. I sighed and rubbed my forehead trying to calm myself down. I could feel my wolf tugging at my skin, begging to be let out but I suppressed it immediate
Anna“Are you okay?” Stella asked. “You looked like you saw a ghost.”I was staring at the ceiling as I lay on the bed. The birds chirped at the window as the morning sun washed into the room, engulfing everything with its golden light. I was thinking about last night. It had been one of the most embarrassing moments of my life. I had showered in the Alpha’s bathroom and that wasn’t the worst of it. I had called him Caroline’s husband. That was more embarrassing than anything I have done in the past. “Don’t tell me you’re still worrying about what happened last night?” Stella asked. I sighed and turned to the other side of the bed. “Oh come on now,” she said. “You’re giving me the silent treatment now?”“This wouldn’t have happened if you didn’t take a hundred hours in the shower,” I said, my voice muffled by the pillow on my face. “Come on, Anna. A girl’s gotta get some relief somehow,” she pointed out. I raised my face to stare at her in disgust. I hated it more than I underst
Rohan“What are you doing here?” I demanded. A girl, not older than twenty with long dark brown hair and ocean-blue eyes that glowed like marbles stared at me. She was dripping wet with a towel wrapped her body, a puddle forming underneath her. There were so many questions that flew through my mind. And so many possibilities as well. There was no way that she would have stumbled here by mistake. And worse, she wasn’t from here. Her smell was distinct, one I hadn’t perceived before. It could only mean one thing. “He sent you, didn’t he?” I asked, my brows furrowing. Her dark brown hair was damp and stuck to her cheeks, and her bronze skin was oozing out steam from the hot shower. And the shock on her face melted into confusion. “What?” She asked. She was trying to play smart. But I knew better than that. I took a step closer and she took another immediately pushing back to the bathroom door. “How does it feel betraying your kind, huh?” I demanded. “Do y
AnnaWe arrived at a new pack settlement that was full of people despite being late. I was surprised by this. It was illuminated with different shades of light. The route to the large gates was lit up with white lights embedded in the trees lined up beside the path. It was so pretty. I was in disbelief. “Welcome to your new home, Anna,” Caroline said from the front seat as the gates opened. I watched in awe as the lights from within the pack lit my face. I was amazed. Why would a pack be so brave to be this lit up? There were a lot of things that could go wrong with this. This could attract enemies easily, but somehow they seemed unaware of this. Well, what did I know?As we drove through the pack, I couldn’t help but notice the infrastructure spread all around us. My face was plastered against the window as I watched in awe. The houses weren’t just cabins. They were solid, more sophisticated but still built with wood. There were all three treehouses, some
Damon “Damon. You are the best,” Sophie said as she held onto me. I chuckled as I held her waist, moving slowly to the rhythm of the song in the background. Everything felt so peaceful even though there was a storm brewing. “I’d do anything for you, Sophie,” I whispered in her ear. Her body shuddered in excitement and that made me chuckle. She couldn’t resist me. Well, I was irresistible. “Why don’t we ditch the party and get all sweaty tonight?” She asked. I chuckled. That sounded like a good idea, but I couldn’t go yet. Even though the festival was almost over, the night was still young for me. Something was going on in the pack that I wasn’t sure of. And I wasn’t going to back down while my mother planned something sinister. “You’re so dirty,” I said. “Now you’re sounding like you’re the saint here,” she said, pulling away from me. The song had stopped and it changed into something more erratic. The rainbow lights on the stage were changed to a blue color, indicating the
