DAMON
I 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

KILLIANI watched as Lucy and Damon laughed together, making Diesel angry at me for losing her. I knew I shouldn't have done it. I could have made her love me without the magic. FUCK how did everything get so messed up? I would prove to her that I was worth it. At least her friendship. Diesel retreated to the back of my mind, freezing me out for losing our mate. He was still pissed at me for cheating, and now she is falling for Damon. Her real mate. What I don't get is Bonnie told me once we marked each other, our bonds to our fated mates would sever. How did she know Damon was her destined mate? How did she feel that?I was stewing about everything while we unloaded our gear and headed to the warehouse. Diesel started to pace in my mind. He still wasn't speaking to me, missing Astrid but something had him on edge. I dropped my bags on one of the bunks. Lying back with my hands behind my head, I closed my eyes and remembered the time Lucy and I went dancing. It w

VICTORIA I knew I should have told Damon and Lucy sooner about Oliver. He just didn't want to add to their pain. Knowing the academy sold him to an assassin's guilt as an infant. Trained to murder and kill for their own selfish gain. Pawns and assets, headshots and blood spatter. We were all damaged and carried our own baggage. I remember my first forced kill. It was what ultimately shattered me—fracturing my relationship with Zarina, my wolf, damning me to a life-alone laser focus on protecting my family. Zarina tried to tell me we didn't have to kill, that we could survive without doing as they were told. I was just a child, eight years old. Everyone thought it was Zarina who was unhinged, but it was me. I used my magic to hurt people. I was no better than dark witches. We only had a few hours before the Delta team headed out. I needed to shake off these feelings. I was normally much better at controlling my emotions. Nothing ever distracted me, but the

LUCYI opened my eyes to Killian carrying me."What are you doing?""You collapsed in the hub. I am taking you to lay down.""Killian, I am quite capable of walking.""I know you are, little wolf, but I am going to put you in bed, and you can rest." I had to admit. It was nice being carried. I was so tired. Both physically and emotionally. Killian never treated me like a fragile child. Killian placed me on the bed and went to leave."Thank you, Killian," I was genuinely grateful for his intervention. How embarrassing that was. I am supposed to be this big bad bennet wolf."I will always have your back, even if I messed up being your mate." He looked sad, like he really did regret what he did."I really did love you, even without the mate bond. I never felt the bond the way I feel it with Damon. But Killian, you didn't need the Mate Bond to make me fall in love with you. You are worthy o
