***Eight months laterBrynn was panicking. Not only was she preparing for Killian's birthday, but she was also having a panic attack about what to do for him.She couldn't believe that his birthday was only two days away. She had tried to ask Alyssa a few questions, but poor Alyssa could hardly find time to sleep since her daughter's birth.So she couldn't really ask her for advice. She was free to go wherever she wanted, but she had a feeling Killian might not be impressed by anything she bought.He's been busy at the office lately, and she knew he needed to destress. Yes, she was mated to him and the Luna of the Goldcrest, but rightfully, it did belong to Killian, and she gave him the green light to choose who was more suited for the role of leader.Killian had done so much for her over the past year, and she wanted to repay him. "Hey," Alyssa called, as she entered the kitchen. Her eyes looked tired as she cradled her sleeping daughter, Avery, on her chest."Hey..." Brynn says in
The explosion shook the whole room.As Damon immediately realized that this was a trap, Talia must have set him up from the beginning: “No, no, no!” He growled.“It’s over, Damon'' she says to Damon, who grabs her hand; it’s ain’t over till I say so!” He says she is tugging roughly on her hands."Protect me!” He says this to his betas as he escapes, pulling Brynn to a secret door that opens up to an abandoned field where there is a helicopter.“I’m not going with you!” Brynn fought back, hooting Damon, who didn’t budge."No, we are going together; I won’t let Killian have you; you won't let him win, '' he says, pulling her close to the helicopter.There was a loud bang that followed from the secret door that fell, destroyed by Killian powers.“Brynn!” Killian's voice raises in a roar as Brynn stops. Relief fills her system the moment she hears her mate's voice.“Killian!” She shouts, hoping her voice is loud enough to head against the loud chopper's wings, “Killian here!” She shouts a
"We are getting married," Damon says.Brynn knew he was a psychopath, but she never realized he stooped to his level. But what did she expect? He was a power-hungry, thieving scoundrel who coveted her fortune."I won't do that; you're crazy; you're mad, man," Brynn says to Damon, who chuckles."I know I can't coerce you since Killian has done a number on you; that bastard has poisoned your mind to turn against me, and I'll make you see the truth soon enough. But I know how to make you do my bidding, darling," he snarls.He stands up, tugging Brynn roughly out of the chair by her arm, her silver cuff still in place as he escorts her out of the room. The hallways were no different.It was dark and gloomy, with wet, cold ground. Brynn couldn't believe that he had taken so many girls from the pack, selling them and using her to prevent some of them from understanding their fate before Damon had killed them.He was a monster. No, he is a monster."Let me go!" Brynn struggled, but Damon did
The sky was darkened by heavy clouds as rain pelted down on the silver roof of the secret warehouse in the middle of nowhere.With the guards on high alert, they were protecting something precious - the hero and Luna of the Goldcrest Pack, who had been unconscious for some time.Brynn was left in a dark room, only lit by a dying bulb. The cold room caused an uncomfortable shiver to run through her unconscious body as she stirred awake.She opened her eyes, slowly adjusting to the light. Her head throbbed and her neck still stung from the injection she had been forcefully given.She managed to maneuver herself into a seated position despite having her hands tied in front of her. The moment Brynn had a faint recollection of what had happened, her body went into full panic mode."Where am I?" she asked, hearing voices on the other side of the door. It reminded her of what had happened earlier and made her wonder how she was going to handle it.She tugged and struggled, but the cuffs only
Killian.I hear voices all around me and feel a throbbing pain. I try to open my eyes, adjusting to the intense sunlight that pours in.There was a cacophony of shouts and panic as I opened my eyes to see Rex, his face filled with relief. I could also see the bandaged patches on his arms; he had been shot, and I'm sure they used the same darts on him as well. "He's awake!" Her shouts prompt my men to enter.I felt sore and had a throbbing sensation in my head that wouldn't go away. I raised my hand to touch my head and felt something thick and rough - a bandage.I felt a touch on my hand. I exclaimed as I looked up and noticed a needle embedded in my flesh, with an IV drip attached to it. "What the fuck?" I muttered."Sir, you need to calm down; you're wounded," Rex says, but I don't listen to him.I closed my eyes, immediately recalling why I was on this bed, and the image of Brynn came to mind. "Brynn!" I roared, pulling the needle out of my arm.Not caring about the blood splatter,
Meanwhile, Brynn's and Killian's were back at the hotel. Brynn had woken up from her fainting spell and remembered her past memories. The last thing she recalled"I think I saw Damon," Brynn says to Killian, who is stunned into silence. She feels her stomach churn in worry as she rushes to the bathroom.Rushing towards the cold ceramic toilet and vomiting into it, Killian followed her into the bathroom. His face filled with concern as he watched her flush the toilet and use a toothbrush to clean her mouth."Are you sure?""It felt like a hallucination, but I swear it was real. He was looking at me, and I couldn't say anything. I doubt Talia hadn't seen him.""That fucking bastard." Killian muttered as he hurried into the room, grabbing his phone and dialing home. It picked up after a few rings."Hello?" "I need updates about the...what?" Killian asked, panic filling his system. "What do you mean, an attack?" he said over the phone.As Brynn paused, she quickly changed out of her cloth
