I sat in my office brooding over my day with a nice glass of whiskey, but it didn’t go down as smoothly as it usually did. The day just didn’t make any sense, and my lack of sleep wasn’t helping. I had spent half the night pacing outside of Grace’s door to make sure she was okay and was fine. Everything about her situation didn’t sit well with me. How could a girl, that injured, go so long under everybody’s radar? It didn’t make any sense.

So around 4am, I gave up on sleeping and stopped pacing

    "Get to it." I gritted out. "You can't react." Leon stated firmly. "I can't do anything if you don't tell me what's going on." "Grace is struggling right now. Sawyer thinks it has to do with the aftermath of her marking." "I'm curious if this marking was new or if she's had symptoms before like this." Sawyer adds uneasily. I stood up without thinking and walked to our room mindlessly before Sawyer put his hand on my shoulder pulling me back just before I entered her room. "I need to go to her," I told him simply."She needs me." "You need to just let her come out of this on her own." Sawyer told me. "You can't help her through this." I took a deep breath and opened the door anyway, and I wished I hadn't gone in at all. She was lying on the bed in the fetal position, writhing in pain. I could see her flushed face from here. "Grace." I breathed. "I have to help her." "It will pass." Sawyer said gently. "We just have to let it pass." "We can't just sit here!" I all but shouted. "I have

    I slammed my car door in frustration. I couldn't believe we had come so close to freeing Grace and her wolf, only to fall short. The witch had to have used magic to conceal her path, but it made me feel like an idiot. How could she have slipped through my grasp so easily? I wasn't used to being defeated in literally anything and this was by a freaking witch. "Fuck. That could have gone better." Leon sighed as he climbed into the driver's seat and Sawyer got into the back seat. "That was a disaster." I grumbled. "We learned a few things.So, it wasn't a total waste." Leon rationalized. "And what did I learn?" "Well, for starters, we learned that this goes a lot deeper than just Grace." Leon answered. "Yea. Grace is the catalyst." I ran my hair frustratedly through my hair. "More like you made Grace the catalyst because you removed her from their pack." Sawyer muttered. "Explain." Sawyer raised his hands in defense before continuing, "I'm sorry. I just meant, if you hadn't found her, he

    I scanned the small diner, but I did not see Sandra. In fact, the whole damn place was empty, except for a small girl in the back corner booth. She had pale blonde hair and looked to only be about 12 or 13. I was mind boggled. I had never seen Sandra despite working with her on several occasions, but a small child didn't fit the reputation the with had created. I had fully been expecting a lady with greying hair and lots of wrinkles.Maybe someone with flowy robes and a whimsical personality, but the small girl looked serious, and she wore a simple jumper, making me think I was juked. "Who are you?" I demanded as I approached the table. "Who do you want me to be?" The girl answered, doing what nearly no one ever dare to: she looked me in the eyes. "I asked for Sandra to meet me here." "I know." "Then where is she?" I asked frustratedly. "You do not believe I am her?" She looked at me quizzically. "What are you doing here?" "I heard you have a problem, and it interests me." "You're 12

    I looked at Grace in awe. I hadn't expected her to be thinking about the effects of her mark the way I had been. I also hadn't expected her to find a way to ask her questions without being able to speak or write. I was surprised by her ability to communicate with me, and whenever she was the one to initiate the conversation, it always caused a feeling that I couldn't describe. I would love if she would just talk to me, but I would try and find ways to make communication easier for her.Maybe Alana could help teach her more words so she could read and write more effectively. If she was ever to be my Luna, she would need to know how to do those things. I laid next to her, but didn't touch her. I just soaked in her presence. I couldn't believe she was worried about how her being marked might affect my rule. She was nothing like the other woman who I had brought home before. She had a sharpness and intelligence that I hadn't expected. I lost myself in my thoughts as I laid there. Sawyer

    I shifted uncomfortably in the bed. I hated how much pain my body was in. I was used to the pain, but without the constant affliction of it, it somehow felt worse than before. Perhaps it was because for once my body was actually healing. But I hated it. I knew I had done more damage somehow when I got that really bad headache, but I couldn't really remember what had happened, all I remembered was the pain. I rolled over and climbed out of bed, stretching what I could of my body as I attempted to move to the chair in the corner.I thought maybe a change of position would allow me to be a little more comfortable. I was about halfway to the chair when the door opened, and in waltzed Rhys. Our eyes met across the room, and suddenly he was next to me, sweeping me off my feet and into his arms. I looked at him in surprise and saw something I didn't expect: Desire. He laid me gently back on the bed, and the pain I had been feeling fell away. And before I had the chance to process anything, h

    I woke up slowly. My brain didn't seem like it wanted to work right now. I could hear a steady beeping, but I couldn't make my eyes open. I took a steadying breath and tried not to panic. Had I been drugged? That didn't make a ton of sense since I was almost definitely in a comfy bed. I remembered I had been with the Alpha King, but it all felt fuzzy. I wondered if the Alpha King was still with me, and that was enough of a thought to force my eyes open. I scanned the room. It was white with white cabinets, and what looked like medical supplies everywhere. Crap.Was I in the hospital? My breath caught when I saw him. His dark brown hair looked as though he had worn a path through it by running his hand through it so many times. His eyes held shadows, and his expression was grim. I frowned, my panic growing a little. I had troubled him. I was the cause of that serious expression on his face. I grabbed his sleeve. I wanted to apologize for all the trouble I had caused but I had no idea w

    I woke up when the door creaked open. I reached out, but the other side of the bed was empty causing disappointment to flood through me.“Oh, sorry.” I heard Alana’s squeal. I opened my eyes to her backpedaling, but I put my hand up to stop her and waved her in.“I didn’t realize you were still sle

    I didn’t move, and he didn’t say anything for a long while. Eventually I felt his hand on my head, and he began running his fingers through my hair. If I hadn’t been so worried about my death, I probably would have found it peaceful or maybe even noticed his brooding mood, but I was too wrapped in

    One minute we were fighting, the next his lips were on mine. My first kiss. Something I had dreamed about from the time I was old enough to know about kisses. It was nothing and everything like how I had imagined. It was rough but tender. Demanding, but gentle. It made my insides twist and heat in

    We made our way up to the third floor. This was where a lot of unmated pack members chose to live. Alana said that this floor gave off, "frat boy" vibes. She said they always had music playing, and they tended to take the party wherever they went. The 4th floor was where the Beta and Gamma lived. T
