Marly POV “You are the missing sister,” I replied, watching her reaction. She looked embarrassed, ashamed and then angry. “I am hardly missing,” she stated, as she stared at me defiantly, continuing to look after Maxwell. “Why did you kidnap me?” I asked, watching her reaction. She looked at me with anger, “Your mate has my father; therefore, until your mate gives him back, you will suffer,” she said, as she turned her glare on Carson. I looked to Carson. They did not realize their father was dead. I looked to her, “Maxwell knows your father is dead,” I told her softly. She looked at me with tears in her eyes, “No, that is not true,” she whispered. “It is true. Ask him,” I encouraged her. She looked down to Maxwell. His eyes were closed, but she nudged him to open his eyes. The lies were evident on his face, “I am sorry,” he said, as the young woman started to cry.“Your father was evil and had to die,” Carson responded, n
Carson POV I took Marly’s hand and knew she was reluctant to go and see her ex-mate. “I will not leave you,” I promised her again as she went with me out the pack house door and towards the hospital. “I could wait in the hall for you,” she suggested, as I shook my head. “Until this is figured out, I am not letting you out of my sight,” I told her. We walked into the hospital, in time to see Jenna and Elder Timothy leaving the hospital. “What the hell are you two doing here?” I demanded. Jenna looked to Timothy, who simply shook his head, “We were visiting a new mother,” he advised. “Why would an Elder take on that responsibility?” I questioned, knowing they were both full of shit. No newborns had been brought into this world. I would have been advised. “As Luna, I take my responsibilities seriously,” Jenna replied, sounding offended at my lack of compassion. As I left them both, with Marly close at my side, I saw the doctor,
Marly POV I had fear racing through my body. I knew this was necessary, but I also knew it was going to result in more challenges. Challenges I was not prepared to face. I knew Carson was strong, and would be prepared to fight for us, but was I strong enough to fight for us as well? “You are strong enough,” Layla assured me in my mind. “What good is being able to read someone’s past, if I cannot get close enough to them?” I questioned. “Marly, seeing the past is but one of your talents. Talents grow with the person and the wolf. You need to gain confidence in your abilities. You are more than you believe you are,” she shared with me. “What does that mean?” I asked, curious about what the future held. “I cannot tell you any more than that. Just trust me and promise me that you will fight for our future,” she said, as she slipped back in my mind. As if the conversation ended, I realized we were at the hospital doors.
Carson POV I waited for confirmation from our witch, that a spell had been placed on the young Alpha. Receiving confirmation, I looked to Marly, seeing her asleep in bed. She was exhausted, and I had laid with her until she fell asleep. I shut the door to our room, and went to open the main door, allowing Jeff and Sarah to enter. “What did you find?” I asked softly. They recognized the need to be quiet, and spoke quietly as well. “Jenna and Elder Timothy are suspect; but Jenna did only visit the new mom today at the hospital. Elder Timothy tried to get in to see Alpha Maxwell, but was not permitted in,” he shared. “What does he want with the Alpha?” I considered, as we all sat down in the sitting area. “Sarah, does anything stand out to you?” I asked, knowing she had more knowledge of the Alpha. “The only thing he could want with Maxwell would be to build an alliance,” she suggested. “An alliance how?” I q
Marly POV I stretched, feeling delicious soreness between my legs. Every minute with Carson was heaven, and I was grateful to the Moon Goddess for bringing him to me. I reached over to Carson’s side of the bed and was disappointed when I felt an empty space. I opened my eyes and looked around. Carson was not here. As I was about to call out to him, the washroom door opened, and Carson walked out with a towel wrapped around his waist. With a pout, I looked at him, “I wanted to have a shower with you,” I said. Carson looked up, not realizing I was awake. He smiled as he came over and gave me a good morning kiss that curled my toes. ‘We will shower together later; I need to get to the training grounds,” he said. I looked at him, “When will I start training?” I asked excitedly, as I swung my feet out of the bed. I was a little embarrassed at being naked, but Carson came up to stand in front of me, “Never be embarrassed in fro
Carson POV I knew I should have handled Jenna better, but she had pissed me off in her assumptions. I needed to arrange a conversation with the Elders to advise I would be hosting Marly’s ceremony within the week. I knew that would come with its own challenges, but I was prepared to stand up for my mate. We went back to our room, showered and got ready for breakfast. As we were finishing, I received word that the King would be arriving within the hour. Wanting to prepare with Jeff, I looked to Marly, “The King will be here shortly. Let’s go so we can prepare for the meeting,” I suggested. Marly stood, as did Jeff and Sarah. As we went to exit the room, I saw Elder Timothy making a bee line towards me. I sighed inwardly, as I tried to avoid him. He sped up blocking my exit. “What is the meaning of this?” I asked Timothy. “You know damn well what the meaning is. Why have you shut Jenna out? As the Luna of this Pack, the
Marly POV Before I could respond, Jenna was spitting and sputtering, “King, she is nothing more than a weak Omega!” she exclaimed. The King whipped around, “Are you implying I would not recognize my own kind when I see them?” he asked, stepping into her space. Jenna cowered, while Elder Timothy spoke up. “All royals are accounted for. None were kidnapped; how could this be remotely possible?” he inquired. The King looked to me, “I do not know, but I will find out. You will come with me young lady. It is clear you are not safe here,” he said, while I stood there in stunned silence. “You are not taking her anywhere,” Carson replied, as the King looked at him. “This royal has been kidnapped, abused, and now she deserves to find out who she really is,” he summarized as if this was the end of the conversation. I stood there for a moment, before I was shaken from my shock. “No,” I said softly. They continued ar
Marly POV The thrusting of my mate in my body, was causing me pain, but I was happy to know that I had found my mate, Maxwell Sampson. He was the soon to be named Alpha for our pack, Red Pines Pack. I was an Omega, and I was an embarrassment to my family. My family had never disillusioned me. My fate as a she-wolf was to serve the Pack. Maxwell promised me it did not matter that I was an Omega, as he dragged me into the closet at the school we were attending. Our Pack often hosted events where our Packs would visit one another. I had met Maxwell when I was young and had loved him for years. Yes, he bullied me as we got older. Being an Omega, you kind of expected those things. But as soon as our mate bond clicked, all of that disappeared and it was just the two of us. He never abused me, like the others did. I was one of the few Omegas in our Pack and school. As such, there was always someone around to remind you of your p

Marly POV I could not open my eyes from the pain in my head. What had happened? I had been hit, and I blacked out. But not before I saw her. I was still confused about what had happened, but I needed to open my eyes and figure out where I was. As I opened my eyes, I realized it was pitch black. I was trapped in something. I paused and listened for clues as to where I was. I was moving, but the air was stuffy. I could hear people talking but could not make out what they were saying. I groaned as I tried to focus. I felt the movement slow down and then speed up again. A vehicle. I am in the trunk of a vehicle, I realize. Where are they taking me and why? I cannot sit here and wait for them to stop. I need to try and get out of here. I feel around, trying to feel for a weapon or something I can use if they stop suddenly. Finding nothing, I realize I will need to be the weapon. “I am with you, Marly,”
Marly POV Making love with Carson was the best experience of my life. I had not known that being close with your mate would be so special. It was more than I could have hoped for, and I wanted to do it again, and often, I thought with a chuckle. Carson looked up at me with a questioning look on his face, before his face changed and I could see he was mind-linking with someone. “Fuck!” he muttered, as he moved me gently off his body. I instantly felt cold and alone, “What is wrong?” I asked, getting out of the bed with him. “Rogues,” he said, as he turned to look at me. “You stay here. I will go and see what is going on,” he suggested, as I shook my head. “No, I want to go with you. We both know I am stronger than we thought. I can help,” I said, moving to throw one of his t-shirts over my naked body. “Marly, it is too dangerous to have you shift until we know what is coming at us,” Carson cautioned. I simply stared at him
