JaxonThe next few days, everything was quiet. The wolves had nothing to report and even Xander had stopped sulking. The problem was, it was too quiet. Ryan had stopped replying to my messages and no matter how much Blue tried to reassure me, I couldn’t help being concerned. Something wasn't right.Blue sat with her legs crossed under her. Cradling the little rounded belly that had appeared on her small frame. She raises an eyebrow at me as I move back and forth.“You’re stressing.” She mutters.“You would be too if you were in my shoes.”“It’s not you that your mother wants. It’s me. She wants to punish me for killing Jack.”“Blue, how are you so calm?”She looks down at her small bump and smiles “You should hear some of the things Anika is saying. If I wasn’t pregnant, things would be alot different. Trust me.”“Anika would go to my mother?”Her odd eyes flick up to mine. “I’m not going to tell you what she is saying. I don’t need you following her ideas.”“I can always ask her mys
BlueHer voice echoed inside my head. “You think you can outsmart me, child!”I could see Jaxon’s eyes. He was tugging at my hands, trying to pull them away from my face.“Talk to me, Blue.”How is she doing this? Anika screeches inside my mind.The mark was from Luna Charlotte, it had to be if she could link me. But how? I didn’t think a woman could mark another.I stare at the gashes in my hands, blood pooled in my palms as Jaxon tries to pull me to my feet.‘Anika, block her the fuck out!’ I growl at my wolf.It takes a few moments and then there is silence.She isn’t happy. Anika whispers‘I don’t give a shit.’I flash my eyes up to Jaxon. “What is she?”“I don’t understand. Are you okay? What the hell happened?”“What is your mother?” The flesh on my hands slowly knits together“She’s a Lycan like me and Xander.”I shake my head at him. I had felt her power. Marking me wouldn’t have allowed my palms to slice open. She had to be something else.She’s trying to break through! Anik
Blue“Blue, say something, anything, please!” Carla begs me. I was trying to concentrate. Anika was fighting to keep the connection between Luna Charlotte and I open.It was funny. Only moments ago I was desperate to keep her out. Now I wanted her to feel everything.I could feel her anger, her rage as she moved forwards. Get ready! Anika muttersI could see the trees moving, like something large was making its way through them. I hold my ground as Carla continues to beg for me to move.“Carla, if you don’t want to be here. Go inside!” I snap, keeping my eyes locked on the moving trees. She was getting close.“What about you?” I could hear her desperation.“I have Anika.”“That’s not enough!” She pulls on my arm again.She knows what I’m capable of, right? Anika is smiling“This is it, once and for all. Either she dies or I do.”Carla lets go of my arm. She stands next to me and I hear how her bones crack. “I made a promise that I would stand with you. Blue, just know that I am will
Blue Jaxon laughs at me as I waddle back from the bathroom for what seemed like the millionth time today. “It’s not funny!” I snap. “I wasn’t laughing.” “You try having a pup use your bladder like a bounce house.” “I will say no more.” But I could see the little glances he gave me. Trying to keep his laughter contained. He will be quiet if he knows what's good for him! Anika grumbles Jaxon accompanies me outside. I knew he was worried about me falling. My balance still wasn’t perfect since I had come out of the coma four days ago. But Jaxon had been right, everything was calm. “What are we going to do about Black Moon? The land is empty.” I ask quietly “Xander wants it. Just like he has always said.” “And you don’t?” “My place is here. Next to you and our pup. I thought that leading a bunch of Lycans was what I always wanted. But now, I want nothing more than to stand next to you and our children.” "Children?" I hadn't thought that far ahead. It was impossible to think of
Blue“Another whiskey on the rocks and a virgin white russian for your best customers.” She gives me a wide grin.I groan as Bree tells me the drink order. I knew exactly who it was for. But calling them my best customers just made me feel ten times worse. I had to tell her the truth.Booth thirteen, that’s where they chose to sit. Every night for the last five nights they sat in that same booth. Staring at me with their brilliant blue eyes, trying to intimidate me without speaking a single word. I knew I was their mate. They knew I was too and yet, they just watched. There was no hiding from the Lycan twins of Black Moon. Not anymore. I was screwed.“Bollocks!” I mutter as I drop the ice in the tray“Hey it’s fine. What’s got you all riled up?” Bree asks. Her eyebrows raised in concern. I hadn't told her yet. I just couldn't find the right words to explain.“It’s nothing, I just need to keep busy.” I mutter, and give her a fake smile as I make their drinks. Bree cocks an eyebrow but
Blue“You’re really not coming tonight?” Bree asksI shake my head at my best friend. “I need more time to think.”“Are they really that bad?” She asks as she moves around her apartment packing her dresses for the night. “I mean, they were hot. I wouldn’t say no.”“You’re lucky you’re human.” I sigh“Really? How many times have you heard me say that about you?”“There are three big problems with being mated to them. One, I am a Rogue. I don’t belong to any pack. Alpha’s are known for killing Rogues. Two, when they see what’s under this,” I gesture to my clothes “I am as good as dead anyway. Nobody wants damaged goods for a mate. Three, they could force me to do what they want. Treat me as a slave, do what they want to my body. Starve me, lock me away all while they decide whether they are going to share me or fight each other until the death.”Her jaw is hanging open. “They will fight to the death.”“Yes. It has been known. Alpha children are always born in sets. Mostly twins, sometim
Jaxon.It’s the human that breaks. The one that Blue called her friend. The human is bawling her eyes out as she announces the truth. Blue takes off, slamming a door shut somewhere in the back of the apartment. She wasn’t crying. She was just silent as her friend made the announcement. Angry perhaps, but not at her friend. She was angry with the situation. Angry that we had found out part of the truth.“What the fuck? Your brother hurt her?” Xander is shouting at the human. He is inches from her. Her body was trembling with fear.“He’s dead. We killed him.” The human splutters. She was an ugly crier. Hey eyes puffy, her lips doing a weird pouty thing. Holy Goddess did I hate humans. “Bree, that’s your name isn’t it?” I crouch in front of her, taking her hands in mine and speak in a soothing tone. She nods her head, her red lips parting a little, almost as if she was in a trance. “What did he do to her?”“I can’t. I promised.” She mutters and I feel Xander’s eyes roll from behind me.
XanderI didn’t trust him. I never had. My brother was secretive. Always coming up with plans, trying to figure out things so that they would benefit him. It had been the same for as long as I could remember. But I was curious as to why he wanted Blue so badly. Of all the ones we had been mated too, he had never wanted anything to do with them, so why now? What was so special about this one?He had commented about her blue hair. But why was that so important? I had seen the way he had looked at her too. He had never looked at another woman in the same way. But Blue was damaged goods. It wouldn’t look good, not for us and not for the pack. I had to make him see sense before it was too late.Jaxon sits in my fathers chair in the office. He props a foot up on his knee and spins in the chair like a four year old. “Not long now little brother.” He smirks at me. “The pack will be ours.”“You are a minute older, I’m hardly your little brother.” I mutter, rolling my eyes at him. “But we do n
