LOGINI guess was like a bucket of ice on Jude. What do you all think?
Jude POVI’m furious that Ivana’s parents had her for her blood type. How the hell do they live with themselves?“Your parents are the Sangers, correct?” Mom asked.“Yes.”“They have been studying rare blood types and disorders for over a decade, correct?”“Yes.”“How often do they use you for your sister?”“A couple of times a month. Once for my sister, and once for their research.”I feel Samson rising again. ‘Cool it, Samson. I want to help our mate. Not scare her.’‘They all die!’‘We will get justice for Ivana. Calm down.’ I said.“So, they are using you for experiments?” Dad asked and his eyes were darkening.Ivana’s hands are shaking now. She nods slightly. “Yes.” She whispered.Joshua’s eyes are almost dark. I know he says he looks at Ivana like a sister, but it doesn’t feel that way when he is looking at her like that.“Some of these older injuries are from those experiments, aren’t they?” mom asked.“At first, it was just drawing blood. Later it became hair samples and tissu
Sable POVI’m looking at Joshua and I can’t believe this is the same little boy that almost died in Winter Moon because of that bastard Jasper. I never did get over the fact that he poisoned his son just to try and take me. Even though he never admitted it and we didn’t have proof, I know he did it. He didn’t get medical care for Joshua either. The boy only needed calcium. Look at him today. He is a strong alpha from the looks of things.“Joshua. I haven’t seen you since you were a child.” I said, hugging him.“Mom?” Jude looked at me.“Jude, remember what I told you about your father’s first mate?”“Yeah.”“She took a chosen mate before finding her second chance mate. She had a son with her chosen mate. That son is Joshua.” I said.Jude snapped his head to Joshua, “You’re that Joshua?”“Yeah.” He said shrugging his shoulder. “I’m nothing like Jasper though.” He said looking at me.“Clearly. Jasper would not have done what you did for Ivana, Joshua.” Jaxon said. “No offense, but your
Ivana POVThe last two weeks since waking up from that attack have been the most peaceful, I’ve ever had in my life. Joshua has stood by my side and I’m only comfortable around him. I got to know him and found out he doesn’t have a mate. When I turned eighteen, I hoped we would be mated, but we weren’t.King Jett, or Junk as he insists I call him, said that he invited his brother, the king of our realm, to handle everything directly with Cain and his goons. He also wants to have King Jaxon review everything about my parents and sister. I am so grateful that Joshua and Junk are on my side.I also shifted. That was such a relief to me. The moment I did, a lot of my injuries started healing quicker. I’m not ranked, so it still takes a minute, but not as bad as before. My wolf, Tala, is awesome and she is Moon Blessed. We can shape shift. Not just into a wolf, but whatever we want. Why I would need that talent goes beyond me, but that’s our gift.We made our way to the airstrip. Junk and
Jude POVThe birthday party went great. Jordyn got all the attention from all the eligible unmated men, and none of them were her mate. She is completely devastated. I am sure she will find her mate. I say this while still waiting for my mate.I didn’t find my mate either. I’m feeling discouraged but mom and dad continue telling me to have patience. It’s only a matter of time. Now dad and I are getting ready to travel and we originally made plans to go to the southern region first. Afterwards, we would go to the northern region and eastern region. However, Uncle Jett called and asked my father to come down for official business.“Hey asshole.”“Hey nut sack!” dad responded. “Oh, wait, Indie still has your balls in a vice. Hey nutless.” He laughed.“Fuck you. I don’t mind Indie handling my nuts. It makes for a hell of a night.” He chuckled.“What’s up?”Uncle Jett sighed. “I have an issue going on here, bro. Joshua found a girl in the woods. A pup. Seventeen years old. She was beaten w
Joshua POVIvana looked down at her hands. They are still trembling. Touching her is out of the question. She flipped out earlier and even stiffened just now. When Junk and I spoke to the doctor, he said it was very strange but believes the reason she acted that way was because we are alphas. She didn’t act that way when it was just him in the room.Alphas hurt this girl. They are supposed to protect their pack members, not beat them within an inch from their life. She is still a pup too. I want to make sure whoever did this, faces consequences. Just because they are alphas doesn’t give them the right to hurt the innocent.“Ivana, you said alphas did this to you. Who were they?” I asked.She was about to answer when the room door swings open and an older couple and another she-wolf a little older than Ivana walks through the door.“Ivana!” the lady said and I assume it’s her mother.She rushes to Ivana’s side and starts checking her over. The man, I presume is her father, also comes u
Ivana POVI’m groggy and stiff. I open my eyes slowly. I smell the sterile scent of anesthetic around me in the room and when I look around, I can tell I’m in a hospital room. I started cataloging my body. Everything is stiff and hurts. I have no idea how long I’ve been here.“Hello?” I croaked out.The door opens and a warrior walks in. “Hey! You’re awake. That’s great. Let me get a nurse or doctor.” He said quickly and walked out.I have warriors guarding my door? Am I on lockdown?A few minutes later a doctor walks in, “Hello miss. It’s good to see you awake. How are you feeling?”“I hurt. Water?” I said with a raspy voice.The doctor smiled, “Of course.” He grabbed a water jug and held the jug close to my face. “Sip slowly.” He said as he helped me drink.I do as I’m told and the moment the water hits my throat, I feel much better. “Thank you.” I said quietly. “How did I get here?”“Someone found you and brought you in. You had no ID on you. What is your name?” The doctor asked.“
Jaxon POVMatt mind linked me this morning and said that he and Enna needed to speak to me and Sable. I told him to come to my office after breakfast. For now though, I’m in the shower with my mate. I’m massaging her breasts while her back is to my chest. I smell her arousal and I know she is enjoyi
Sable POVOver the last few days, I feel like Jaxon has been treating me like a porcelain doll. Ever since the accident, he has been worried about going too rough on me. He also thinks I’m pregnant. Which in all fairness, it is a high possibility. But I am not going to break just because I’m pregnan
Jaxon POV This has got to be the biggest mind fuck I’ve had in a long time. What the fuck is Darius doing here? Of all the possible situations that could have happened tonight, I didn’t factor him in at all. We haven’t spoken to him since moving day. Sable punched him straight in the nose and when
Diane POV My uncle is a life saver. He knew something was wrong. He could tell by the sound of my voice. Thank the Goddess for familial bonds. When he got into a close enough range for me to connect to him, he reached out. ‘Oh, little Diane. I know something was wrong when you called and started a
