DAMON
I was talking about border patrol with my Beta and Gamma when Lucy walked into the garden. I had to keep my jaw from dropping to the floor. She walked in looking so effortlessly elegant. I left the guys standing there, grabbing a glass of champagne off the bar for Lucy. I walked up, handing her the glass and taking her arm.
"Should we walk? I want to show you the garden."
"I would like that." I didn't know it was possible for this girl to be any more beautiful, yet here she is, a total knockout. If Killian did kill me, it would be worth every second I got to spend with this enchantress.
"Wow, Damon, this Place is absolutely stunning."
"Nothing is more beautiful than you, angel." I saw a blush creep across Lucy's face.
"Stop that. I have a mate."
"I know you do but, maybe I can win you over."
"Damon, had I met you before, I think yes, we could have maybe had a different ending up.

DAMON I finally calmed down enough to go back to the packhouse. I was toast. I ran so hard my wolf Hunter whined he wanted to get back to Lucy. He was really attached to her. Another reason by I am sure we are mates. Her Link might be severed, but I will win her back. I can't believe my father. He is sorry. He is sorry he beat Victoria and me and let his father beat us. Treat us like slaves. Victoria was so tiny when he had her tied to a pole and whipped until she was barely conscious, and now he is sorry. Fuck that Fuck him. I don't need him; I never did. He doesn't get to all of a sudden be a decent person. He was a shitty dad, a shitty mate and a shitty Alpha. I am Alpha now, and I am better than he ever was. I make us stronger. I made us united. I stopped outside Lucy's room. I lifted my hand no knock but decided better of it. She doesn't need this drama. She has her own. I turn to leave when the door opens, and I feel her arms slip under mine and around my waist. I twis

DAMONWe had stopped by Devon's apartment around noon. His doorman said he hadn't been here in a few days. Sometimes he stays with his girlfriend. I convinced Lucy to go to the mall and do some shopping. I wanted to check out this store that sold kid's stuff for the twins. Ever since I saw that vision of Axel and me as boys, I wanted to do something for the twins. We wandered around the mall for a while. I found out Lucy's favourite ice cream was tiger eye. Who likes licorice ice cream. I had made dinner reservations at this city's botanical gardens. I wanted to make Lucy feel completely loved by me. We laughed and ate a lot. I loved making her laugh. She became everything to me in such a short time. Her laugh, the way she scrunches her face when something is too spicy. The way she pops her p's when she says YUP!After dinner, we took the bottle of Champaign, and we wandered around the garden looking at all the flowers and taking notes of all Lucy's favourites. W

LUCYAfter Melody removed the dark magic from my body, I could feel Astrid sinking back to the recess of my mind. Whereas before, she was always on edge like she was on a tight rope and could slip at any time. I could feel her looming over me, over every decision I made, every emotion I felt. It was oddly peaceful but lonely having her so far back in my subconscious. Was this how normal wolf/human counterparts interacted? Damon was beaming. He was so happy we were actually fated mates like he knew all along, and Melody confirmed it all for him. I am delighted too, really happy but also shocked and betrayed that Kilian would do that to me. That he would trick me like that. He acted like he loved me, but all he wanted was my abilities, womb, and bloodline. I felt my blood boil, and I was trying so hard to shove it down so Astrid wouldn't come forward. Then I noticed she wasn't there. She was just in my mind, not bothered by this at all. I reached out to her.

ELLEN I sobbed when Lucy told me that Killian used dark magic to trick her. I knew Maddox had known. He acted so weird that day in the hospital. It didn't take long before I was full-on raging. Wow, these baby hormones are intense. "Haha, apparently, it's worse with twins." "I can't believe you will both have twins under two years old. I don't know that I ever want kids." I watched as Lanie rocked Asher in the rocking chair. "Oh, Lucy, I thought the same. I felt like how we could pass that on to kids with our messed-up wolves—but then seeing Axel's face when they kicked for the first time and then watching him sing Violet to sleep with her favourite country song even though he hates country music. Nothing like it." and just like that, my anger dissipated, and I was more in love with Maddox all over again. "So Lucy, Damon is your destined mate. How did you feel when you found out?" I had to know what a crazy turn of events but I was

DAMONI watched as Lucy confronted Killian. I wanted so badly to rip his throat out. Not only for keeping me from my mate but for hurting Lucy. She loved him even without the bond. Would she have ever felt that way about me without the mate bond? It took everything inside me not to shift and kill him. When he reached for her, I lost it—charging forward but keeping Hunter in check."Don't touch my mate, or I will kill you and take everything you own." I roared with a rage so deep and thick I almost choked on my own words." There it was, the look I had been waiting for as he questioned her being my mate. When we arrived back, Lucy was bursting at the seems to tell the girls. They were shocked, to say the least, and Axel was silent. He didn't say anything. I couldn't tell if he was mad or glad or just pissed Killian hurt Lucy. I know I was barely containing Hunter. Hunter wanted to murder him. Hunter was a lot less rational than I am. He is a warri

LUCY I don't remember the exact moment I started to fall apart. I just remember the faces of the ones who loved me most. I confronted Killian. Barley keeping it together. I wanted to run to Damon, but part of me wanted to run away completely. I had no pack. I was no Luna. Everything I knew was a lie. I felt myself begin to break when Axel looped his arm under my back, and we walked into the kitchen. Axel knew exactly what I needed. He lifted onto the counter my favourite place beside the coffee pot. He reached over and handed me the peanut butter and a spoon. Damon walked in, and for some reason, I was embarrassed. I couldn't even look at him. I was embarrassed that Killian tricked me, that I fell for his fake charm. I am supposed to be the Bennet wolf, and I swoon the first time some sexy guy pays me any attention. Axel was the only person to always have my back. I am not saying Damon would hurt me, but he is a man, so who knows. How do I even know this mate bond is

LUCYWe sat in silence as we drove to this spot on someone else's territory. I looked out the window, being sad about Killian but also being excited about Damon. What was wrong with me."Nothing is wrong with you, Lucy. Just because the mate bond was fake doesn't mean you loving Killian was fake. He loved us too. Just not the way mates love each other. I am still as he,l at home for it, but I understand wanting to be loved." Astrid's voice flitted through my head. She was staying in the far reaches of my mind to help me feel more in control after the last few years of being at odds. I loved being at peace with her. I was starting to understand the relationship between the human side and the wolf side. I took a deep breath before I spoke."Damon, I do feel very strongly for you. I can't say it's love because I honestly don't even know what real love is anymore. I don't know that I have ever felt truly loved. I know the love I have for Axel and Lanie,

ELLENThese babies were going to kill me, between the complete exhaustion and not being able to keep anything down. I could hardly conjure up some orange juice. I was sneaking my way down the stairs to get anything to settle my stomach. When I heard a voice in one of the offices. I had a bad feeling, but I snuck closer to the door. It was Alpha Ben Bennet. He was arguing with someone on the phone. I checked my watch. It was past midnight. Nothing good ever happens past midnight. I tried to get closer to the door to hear better, but the floorboards creaked, and he stopped talking. I quickly tiptoed down to the kitchen. I snuck into the fridge. I remember Axel made a double chocolate cake for Lanie."You okay?""AHHHHH" I screamed!"OMG Axel, what are you doing up?""Couldn't sleep.""Twins keeping you up?""No, this thing with Killian, Damon and Lucy keeps replaying in my head over and over again," h
