“You speak as if she’s already done that dirty deed. I must remind you that nothing has happened yet.” I say nothing, the anger still coursing through me. &ld
“I saw what she plans to do. She wants to take Skye away from us. We brought her into our home and took care of her. She’s mated to our Beta. I don’t understand how she could be so cruel.” Selene shakes her head.“You speak as if she’s already done that dirty deed. I must remind you that nothing has happened yet.” I say nothing, the anger still coursing through me. “Remember the premonition you had about your mate’s death?” My mind goes back to that time, and I shudder. I remember having to live through that. I was terrified that the happiness I just found would be taken away from me so soon. I didn’t even care about what I saw happening to me; I was just worried about Aston. “The images you saw didn’t happen, did they?”My mind replays everything, including the choi
~Katarina~I run through the woods, my feet not moving fast enough. I’d much rather have Hope make this journey, but she’s struggling right now. Our pup is gone, and Hope is going feral. I continue through the woods, chasing the scent that was left behind. The scent is familiar, and I know who it belongs to. I have to hope that I can get to them before they get too far. I feel a crowd of people following me. I know that they are chasing me through the woods to give me support. I stay focused on the road ahead. I can’t afford to cut my focus because I might lose my chance to get my child back. I jump over a fallen log and duck under a hanging branch. My lungs are squeezing, and my breath is coming out in short spurts. I want to stop moving… I want to stand still and catch my breath. I can’t do that, I can’t stop. I find another burst of energy and push forward. I burst through a canopy of leaves and branches and find myself stumbling into an open field. Ahead, I see a group of wolv
~Dominic~I haven’t seen Danny since we spoke, and I hate it. I’m trying to give her time to settle into this pack’s day-to-day life. Well, that’s only a partial truth. When it comes down to it, I’m hoping that she feels comfortable enough here to tell me what she’s hiding.I hate to accuse my mate of anything, I do. I just know what I feel, and I feel that she’s hiding something from me. I have to make this pack’s safety my priority, and the only way to do that is to get to the truth. I won’t make the same mistakes I made before. I did some horrible things, and I never want to repeat that.Mate. I sigh and close my eyes. Battling Gideon has been a special hell. All he wants to do is get close to our mate. I get him, I truly do, but I just can’t do that right now. I need to be sure that she’s safe for this pack, my family.A clap on my back makes me focus.
~Brackston~Weirdly enough, my wolf and I feel settled after the call with Jamorea. I don’t know what it is about her, but she calms me. I felt that the moment I met her, I knew that I couldn’t let her out of my sight, no matter what.I sit back in the chair and rest my hands on my desk. I know that I told her to check in every day, but if I’m being honest, that won’t be enough. I need to see her more than a video will allow. I need to be in her presence. It’s going to be hard to do that since she’s over there.I need her in that pack, securing my human weapon more than I need to see her. I wish I could have both, right now, but I don’t have that option. I know I should wait, but that hasn’t really been my forte, no matter how many years have passed.I push away from my desk and rise to my feet. I may not have a long-term solution to my problems, but in the short term, I could use some fresh air.
~Danny~Days passed much as they did before the incident with Skye. I kept to myself on the Beta’s floor. I tried to keep my distance from Dominic, not trusting myself to be around him. I wanted to stay away from Skye, too. It isn’t that she isn’t an amazing child. I just don’t want to be too close to her and have any reason to do what I was sent here to do. I never really thought about the mate bond before. I learned what all wolves learn about it. I heard what they said and memorized how they said things would play out. We were told it would be intense, and once your mate was scented, no one else would matter. We were told that all emotions would be in overdrive and that even when you claim your mate, the feelings would still be strong. Nothing could have prepared me for the real deal. The mate bond has to be the most powerful thing that I’ve ever felt in my life. It’s almost as if Dominic is a magnet and he’s drawing me to him. Fighting the bond is a full-time job plus overtime.
~Katarina~I stare at my mate, rocking our daughter to sleep. It’s been an eventful hour or so, and it has exhausted her. Elder Nadia left some time ago, promising to dig into this incident more.I won’t lie and pretend that I’m not scared for my daughter because I am. She seems to be manifesting some powers already, and I’m confused as to why that is. Gold wolves are supposed to get powers until they are marked by their fated mate. I don’t remember having any powers, and I wasn’t told that I did anything out of the ordinary.Skye looks perfectly fine; she looks like she always does. There’s nothing outward that could have contributed to what happened today, so it has to be something inside. Is it stress, or maybe something dangerous is about to happen? I wish I had a reference point to guide me, but I’m at a complete loss. My only hope is that Elder Nadia can find some helpful information.
~Dominic~It’s been a few days since I’ve seen my mate, and I’ve had a lot to think about. I kept going over the conversation that we had, but there was no clear answer. When it comes down to it, I don’t know if I can trust my mate. Goliath is fighting against me, but as the Beta of the pack, I can
~Dominic~The moment her eyes met mine, I swear I lost every rational thought I’ve ever had in my life. She is easily the most beautiful woman that I’ve ever seen. I know that she’s my fated mate, and it makes sense for me to feel that way, but I have to believe that I’d feel the same regardless.
~Dominic~Panic briefly crosses Aston’s face before he scales back. I’m sure what I just said sounds crazy to them, but I didn’t know how else to word it. I’m not sure that my fated mate can be trusted; I’m not privy to her intentions. Fated mate or not, I’m the Beta of this pack, and its safety is
~Unknown -*Danny*~I shift, loving the softness beneath me. This is a change from the last few nights on that tent floor. I shift again, immediately groaning in pain. Everything ached, and it’s taking everything in me not to scream. My mind goes back to what I can remember. Brackston came to tell
