~Katarina~

I feel….I feel sick. I feel…I’m confused. The air is thinning out, and I feel like I can’t breathe. I hurry out of the office, stopping right outside of the door. I look to the left and see Luna Trina with her people. They are facing me, but I can’t deal with them right now. I turn to my right and hurry away. I bound down the stairs, surprised I didn’t fall and crack my skull. I can’t see anything clearly, and I think I’m starting to hyperventilate.

I stumble out the front door and f

    ~Katarina~“Are you sure you don’t want me to go see her? I mean, she knows my father, and maybe she’ll talk to me.” It’s sweet how much Aston worries about me, but he really doesn’t need to do that. I’m perfectly safe going to the coven on my own. I think by now they realize that I’m not someone who would easily succumb to their power.I turn from the mirror and look at my handsome mate. He’s sitting on the edge of the bed with his hands clasped in front of him. The look on his face is one of immense worry, and it warms my heart, but it also makes me want to wrap him up in my arms. “Do you think something is going to happen to me?”“It could. You will be away from me, and that makes me worry.” I slowly walk over to the bed, keeping my eyes on Aston. I stop in front of him and run my hands over the top of his head. “Dreamboat, look at me.” He slowly lifts his head and puts his eyes on mine. “I love how you worry about me, I do. I know you aren’t doing it in a demeaning way. I promise

    ~Jamorea~I stretch my arms and legs, my body feeling almost sore. I open my eyes and blink rapidly, trying to clear the sleep. I stretch my arms out on the mattress and find an empty spot next to me. I don’t think much about it, not ready to process what just happened. I roll out of bed and walk into the restroom. I use the facilities and stand at the sink to wash my hands. I look up into the mirror and my soul practically leaves my body.I lean forward and look at my next. My breathing becomes ragged, and my heart’s practically beating out of my chest. This can’t be real, can it? I’m still dreaming, right?The door slams against the wall with a huge bang. I jump and turn around to find Dominic in the doorway. He’s breathing heavily, his eyes searching the room as if he’s looking for a threat. “What?!” He steps forward into the restroom. “What’s wrong?!” I step back on shaky legs. “Wwwwhat are you doing here?” Dominic moves forward, stopping right in front of me. “What happened to

    ~Third Person~Silence settles around them and the air crackles with sexual tension. Dominic holds his breath, waiting for her answer. Something in him has him scared. He has no proof, but he feels that her answer could end his life. Of course, he isn’t going to die, but the sentiment is the same. Jamorea is scared to speak. She knows her answer; she’s known it for a while now. She hasn’t been as sure about anything in her life. There’s too much, though. There’s too much about her, surrounding her. She’s terrified that if she gives in, she’ll be a disappointment. She’s terrified that Dominic will wake up one day and realize that she has too much trouble for him to deal with. Look at what’s going on right now. There are three Alphas on packlands right now because of her. She came here to do harm to this family, and in response, people are being called in simply to help them. If she had never come here, they wouldn’t need to do that.Jamorea has been in a state of survival for most of

    ~Dominic~Skye didn’t want to leave us, but I insisted. Things have been heavy lately, and I felt we needed time to unwind. You can’t really unwind when you are chasing after a toddler. As much as I love Skye, she’s a lot to handle most of the time.I lead Jamorea to my floor and into my place. I guide her to sit on the couch, and I start to pace. There has been so much in my mind that I’ve been trying to figure out. With everything that’s been going on, things have been put on the back burner, but I can’t continue like that.Having this conversation has been rolling around in my mind for a while now. When I told her about my past, she didn’t run, and she didn’t reject me. When she told me about her past and why she was here, I gave it the attention that it required. I knew that separate from this incident, my mate is a strong woman, and I could do a lot worse than her. I knew what I wanted, and I was sure.I wanted to have this conversation so many times, but there never seemed to be

    ~Jamorea~The room stays silent, and I can only guess that everyone is trying to analyze the phone call they just heard. I say nothing because my mind is reeling as well. I’m so worried about Khalid that I can barely breathe. I just want to make sure he’s safe, and he would be safest if he were with me.“Well, that was interesting.” I turn to find Alpha Brice looking at me. That man unnerves me without even trying. I can’t really figure him out, and I think that’s what’s bothering me the most. He’s here because he’s a trusted friend of Alpha Aston, yet his posture and attitude are more like an enemy. I’m not sure which part of him is the true part.“Don’t start, Brice.” He looks at Alpha Tamiyah with a smirk.“Don’t start what? I was just making a general statement.” The Alpha rolls her eyes and turns to me.“He calls you da

    ~Dominic~Jamorea’s face is pale, but I understand why. She’s utterly terrified about answering this call. If he suspects anything, he could hurt her brother. I reach through the link and connect with Aston and Katarina. It’s the phone he sent her. He’s contacting her. Should we all leave the room?Have her answer the call here and put it on speaker. Let the group hear the call. Yeah, maybe that will turn the tide. I disconnect the link and reach over to squeeze Jamorea’s knee. Aston clears his throat.“I need all of you to stay silent through this. Please just listen.” He turns his head to my mate. “Put the call on speaker.”“I… I can’t answer this here. He calls on video. He will suspect something if it’s a background he isn’t used to.” I forgot about that. I forgot that he always calls on video. I don’t think she has enough time to make it to her room before answering the call. Jamorea pulls the phone out of her pocket, and the screen is visible to me. This is a regular voice cal

    ~Katarina~It's been almost a week since Aston has been back at the pack, and it's been a bit awkward. The problem isn't because he's been weird with people. To be honest, not too many people have seen him. He's been keeping to his parents and the houseI have caught a glimpse of him once or twice,

    “I… I…” I let a growl rip through the room. I can’t stand someone who takes forever to say what they need to say. He’s a young man and has no idea what a man is like. It’s disgusting to think that she thought she could raise him. When I tie her to me, I will make sure I take over raising him into

    ~Danny~It’s been days. Days of me being locked in this bedroom, away from everyone else. No one locked me in; I did that myself. I didn’t trust that I could be around people, around my mate and keep my eyes on the prize. There have been knocks on my door, and there have been inquiries, but I’ve i

    ~Dominic~There it is. It wasn’t the question I was hoping to avoid, but everything that comes with it. This is the part where I can tell a massive lie and make myself feel better and look good in the immediate, or I can tell the truth and risk losing her forever. I don’t know why, but I thought th
