Chapter 15: The Brenner Room

I didn’t ask for this room, The Brenner Room. I guess it’s just my dumb luck that after thinking about Theo so frequently over the last two days, we’d be put in the room I named after his family. I’ve named a lot of things after my friend and his family. Theo loved to hunt and fish, so I’d opened a hunting and fishing store and named it Theo’s. Luna Jessica had loved her jewelry, so I’d opened a jewelry store and named it Jessica’s Jewels. I even opened a medical center because little Samara was always chasing after me, Theo, and Sawyer and skinning her knees or cutting her hands when she would inevitably fall. Not having gotten her wolf, she always needed medical attention, so I’d named Samara’s Medical Center for Children after her.

At the time, I’d been wrought with grief, and I didn’t care how much money I was spending. I just felt the need to do something, anything, to let Theo and his family know that I was sorry for not being there in time to save them. Whether it was Theo

Roman still carries a lot of guilt over the loss of his best friend.

I thought the same but then Roman mentions fresh flowers that were the moms and sister’s favorite, in past tense….

I’m wondering the same thing! What if her sister is Sawyers mate?

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 32: Shock

    SamaraWhen the pack realized who I was, they all wanted to see me, tell me how sorry they were for the loss of my family, let me know how happy they are that their Alpha found me, and that I wasn’t alone any longer.“She wasn’t alone. This pack is indebted to Alpha William, the Alpha who took in Samara when she was nine-years-old. He gave her his name to protect her and he looked after her until I found her. Remember that name, everyone. If ever anyone from Alpha William’s pack comes seeking asylum, or if Alpha William himself arrives on our pack lands for any reason, they are to be granted access,” Roman had said.He had turned to me. “I can never repay him for what he did for you and for me. But I will try.”And somehow, I’d fallen even more in love with him.He called his parents that day. His father had been resistant to returning, but Roman gave him a vague response about having finally found my parents’ killers.“Who?” Alpha Sterling had growled.“Come home and I will tell you.

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 31: The White Wolf

    RomanThe next morning, I wake up late. I still feel mentally exhausted after everything that I learned last night.Sawyer. The man I thought was my friend. The man I grew up with, who grew up with Theo, betrayed us. If Samara hadn’t shown me the evidence from her memory, I’m not sure I would have ever believed it.Overnight, the grief has turned to rage and fury. The man I considered one of my best friends will die for what he did to Theo and his family. He will die for putting Samara through everything that she has suffered.Samara. I smile, pulling my mate closer to me. I not only found her, finally giving myself some peace after nine long years, but the woman is mine. No wonder she knew who I was at the Alpha meeting. I probably look very similar to the seventeen-year-old she remembers. She, however, looks very different from the gangly nine-year-old that I remember. The tomboy has matured into the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen in my life. Intelligent, strong, and beautiful. S

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 30: Next Steps

    SamaraAfter that, Roman started searching for me, but my trail was so trampled he couldn’t find it to follow me. He searched every pack in the north and many in the south, just not those as far south as I had managed to go. Through his memories, I can see where the other packs learned to fear him. His demand to search the packs for me was not to be denied. If he was, he’d attack the pack, killing the Alpha if necessary, and search for me anyway. It seems that word spread quickly and most Alphas became very accommodating very quickly when Roman showed up at their borders.Through his memories, I can feel his devastation, his feelings of failure every time he didn’t find me. He let’s me see his memories of Teddy’s first birthday after he was killed and how he’d spent that day much like he’d spent today, holed up in his room, drinking and telling Teddy how sorry he was that he’d failed him.‘But I promise you I won’t give up. I will never give up until I find her and I avenge your death.

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 29: Shared Grief

    SamaraI was glad Roman was distracted today. I could tell something was wrong but today is a hard day for me. It’s Teddy’s birthday. I don’t know why Althea and I were never as close as Teddy and I were. The ten-year age difference probably had a lot to do with it, but Althea was always out with friends or dreaming of becoming a Luna. She didn’t want me chasing after her and her friends. And, in truth, at my young age, I didn’t care about make-up and boys. Teddy and Roman were much more fun, exploring the forest and getting into mischief. And Teddy never seemed to mind me chasing after him and his friends. I still mourn on Althea’s and my parents' birthdays, but it’s not the same as it is with Teddy. He was my best friend and my hero.I was surprised when Roman didn’t say anything about my longer than usual run. He only said he wanted to make sure I ate. I tried. I ate as much as I could in our room, then I just stared out the window, watching the day go by and images and memories of

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 28: Samara

    RomanI let her go, watching her walk to the kitchen to get food before returning to my office. There’s another plate of food waiting for me in my office, the breakfast plate having been removed while I was talking to Samantha. I need to remember to thank my pack for looking after me on these days. I know it’s hard for them, feeling my grief. I try to shield it from them as much as possible, but as their Alpha, there’s no way to shield it from them completely.I ignore the food and pour another glass of whiskey, pushing the information on Theo aside and pulling up the information on Samara.I go through everything, frustrated when I can’t find anything new, any new leads that could help me to find her. When I finally stand, frustrated and angry, I realize it’s dark outside. I go pour another glass of whiskey and walk to the windows, staring outside.“You must be so disappointed in me, my friend. I know I am,” I say to the empty room.I don’t know how long I’ve been standing there when

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 27: Theo's Birthday

    RomanThe last couple of weeks with Samantha have been incredible. Yeah, she still gets snarky with me and she has no problem doing it in front of the pack. But I love that side of her just as much as I love the sweet side that comes to find me after she returns from letting Ayla run.At first, I could see she was embarrassed coming to kiss me, but by the third or fourth day, she’d run around the packhouse until she found me and leapt into my arms. As often as she gets snarky with me in front of the pack, I make sure to kiss her into oblivion in front of the pack. I want them to know that while she hasn’t agreed to be mine, she isn’t fighting me any longer.I have also taken full advantage of kissing her. I kiss her before she goes for her morning run. I kiss her breathless when she returns, happy and laughing. I kiss her at every mealtime. I sneak up behind her and kiss her neck when she’s not looking just so I can feel the shivers that run through her body, and I kiss her at night wh
