DAMON
We 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

LUCYWe were rushing back to the packhouse. I was nervous but oddly calm. I finally felt like I could handle anything as long as Damon was with me. Diving into the territory, trackers were everywhere—half in human form, half in wolf form. My nerves started to ramp up, and Damon grabbed my hand and squeezed. I was half-heartedly smiling before we pulled up to the packhouse when one of the guards from Death Moon were out front. There were guards everywhere, from both Death Moon and Mountain moon. I opened my door, took and deep breath and prepared myself for what was about to be thrust upon me. Like he could feel my anxiety Damon joined me side the truck rubbing a hand up my back."Lucy, I am here. Whatever is happening, we will handle it." A large guard dressed in Kevlar and carrying a machine gun walked up to me."Luun, I mean Miss Bennet. Please go to the pack hospital. Your sister." I ran as fast as my legs could carry me the two blocks to th

LUCYThe drive to the airstrip was only a few hours, but the whole drive, I couldn't stop thinking if I had a little sister. The vision I had was of Lanie and myself sitting at a table colouring and Laura at the stove, pregnant, cooking something. Maybe I don't have a sister out there. Maybe she died, or maybe the Academy took her. I leaned my head against the window while Damon held my hand, rubbing circles on my thumb. How had I only met him a few short weeks ago? I feel like I've known him my whole life. I guess that's why they are called soul mates. The other half of your soul.Victoria took her motorcycle to preserve her magic for the fight. I wish she were here so I could ask her about finding my sister or brother. Did Bennet wolves even have boys? I was pulled from my thoughts as we pulled into the airstrip. We were taking Damon's pack jet to colorado to set up a base of operations. Killian was in the SUV behind us. I don't know how I feel seeing him again
