Chapter Eight
(Wilder POV)
Sitting next to Elena in her hospital bed an ache begins in my chest causing the worry for our unborn pup to grow. The bleeding has stopped, a nurse performed an ultrasound and we are just waiting on Dr. Alex to come in with the results of the tests and ultrasound. Zander starts to whine in my mind in pain and my anxiety increases.
‘What’s wrong? Is it the pup?’
‘No not the pup. It’s something else. Something I can’t explain but it hurts.’ The ache in my chest increases as does Zander’s whimpering. I feel as he pulls back further into my mind and the whining lessens but not the ache in my chest.
I look over to Elena and see the worry in her eyes. “Whatever happens
Chapter Nine(Elena POV)“Dear Goddess, she's half vampire Livie. What do we even know about Vampires let alone werewolf vampire hybrids.”“I’ve done my research have you?”“I was up most of the night. So far what I know isn’t good. Some High Lord of a clan of Vampires by the name Sanderson picked a fight with werewolves he couldn’t win, wanting to be the master of the supernatural world. It didn’t end well; now vampires are mostly extinct.”“So history that is all you learned so far?” Olivia lets out a laugh.“Well I do have a pack to run and a Luna ceremony in a couple of da
Chapter Ten(Wilder POV)The scent of blood has me jerking awake and I feel myself shift back to my human form. I look around in a daze and realize I am on Paxton’s porch. As I look around my eyes zero in at the source of the blood. Elena is lying unconscious on the ground, blood coming from her head. Spencer is approaching and about to reach her. A growl erupts from me in warning as I rush forward and shove Spencer as far away from Elena as I can, sending her flying about 10 feet into a tree trunk. She lays there unmoving as I pick up Elena and rush to the pack hospital. How could this happen, why was I even there?I got Elena to the hospital and they put her in a room. Dr. Alex arrives and begins to run some tests. I am really starting to hate this place. The doctor finally enters
Chapter Eleven(Spencer POV)I pull my knees closer into my chest hugging them closely as I can hear people moving around me. Someone grasps my wrist and I try to jerk it away but a warm cup is pressed into my palm. I relax slightly and wrap both hands around the cup drawing it in closer. The smell of the coffee whiffs toward my nose and the slight smell of cinnamon mixed in it brings tears to my eyes. This used to be my favorite thing to drink, my favorite smell now it is ruined by him.His rejection rings in my ears and I press the coffee cup to my lips and take an attentive sip. The taste of the coffee mixed with the sweetness of the vanilla and cinnamon make a whimper leave my lips. I don’t know how long I have sat on this couch wrapped in a blanket staring at
Chapter Twelve(WIlder POV)Darkness surrounds me. There is no beautiful forest or waterfall. I’m not accompanied by Zander. I feel completely alone. I just wander around the darkness and reflect. There were signs and I ignored them, like the first time I saw her I was drawn to her. Though I thought it was because she was gorgeous. Then there was the pain I felt from hurting her and the nightmares that haunted me. The feeling of being complete when I am near her. I thought it was about being near Olivia but the feeling went away the night I arrived after she left. I was constantly watching her even when I didn’t realize it, looking for her, wanting to be near her and being worried about her.I sink to my knees not having the energy to go any further. I had completely ignored e
Chapter Thirteen(Spencer POV) I groan as I stretch getting up from my spot under the tree. I am really beginning to regret my decision to dump my vehicle two days ago but I didn’t want to take the chance that an angry Alpha would try to follow me. Not that I really think Wilder cared I accepted and was gone but why take the chance. All I had taken with me was a backpack with some clothes and some money obviously not enough as now that I have a wolf I tend to need to eat more. I had promised my friends in my letter that I would reach out when I found somewhere and I would. For the three days since I left I have hunted when I could, showered at truck stops, ate what cheap food I could find and since I no longer had my car to sleep in, I slept wherever I could. I wished that I could shift into Lilly to cover more ground bu
Chapter Fourteen(Wilder POV)Almost 7 years laterI roll over and slap at the alarm clock, 6:30am. I throw the pillow over my head. ‘Date night with your mate is over time to get the princess ready for school.’ I mindlink my Beta. I stretch kicking the blankets away as I make my way to the kitchen for some coffee. A smile plays on my lips as the smell of bacon assaults my nose and I see Elena standing in front of the kitchen. “That smells delicious.”“It’ll be ready in just a few minutes. Go ahead and sit down and the coffees ready.”“You really are the best. Is Madeline ready?”“Just finishin
Chapter Fifteen(Trey POV)“Alpha Wilder.” I nod my head fighting wrinkling my nose at the lingering smell of sex in the room.Within seconds he is up and in front of me pulling me into a hug being careful not to crush the little one in my arms. He pulls away and just looks at me, his eyes going from mine to my mates. When he finally steps back I speak, “Alpha this is my mate Beth. Beth, this is Alpha Wilder.” She simply nods in true Beth fashion not hiding the distaste in her face at the mention of the Alpha. He gives her a puzzled look but shakes his head dismissively. I get up and go sit next to her shifting the pup into her lap wrapping my arm around her to relieve some of her unease. Wilder takes a seat in the chair I just left.
Chapter Sixteen(Spencer POV)Dear Moon Goddess, please let them be safe. Let them have gotten away and be getting help. Please let my family be safe. I repeat this prayer over as I lay huddled in the corner trying to recover from my last round of torture. I strain to hear as much as I can from the conversations of those guarding my cell, afraid to even sleep because I may miss something important. The rogues that watch the cell aren’t the strange rogues they used to attack us.“Jasper will be here in 2 days.” Jasper?“He’s gonna be pissed when he sees her.”“Well the Bitch should have quit fighting us. Hopefully she will heal enough even with t
