POV Samantha We drove for an hour when suddenly I gasped and everyone turned to look at me."Jules! What about Steph?" I lamented and he smiled at me."Alpha asked if she wanted to go with us but she had too many duties at the pack hospital. It'll be tough to be apart but she and I can call each other and she may meet up with us later." Jules explained as he drove.{They've been fighting a lot lately. She wanted a break.} Troy linked me and I nodded."We need to ditch this car. There is probably a tracker on it." Gavin said.

 POV LanceIt's been 10 fucking months since I've seen my mate's sweet face! Heard her kind voice! Felt her soft skin! My wolf and I have been on edge the entire time. The only thing that's kept me sane is the fact that I never felt the pain of Samantha being harmed or cheating on me. I knew that she was alive, unharmed and faithful.Of course, that doesn't mean that I'm not angry at her for running. I was livid when I found out. When I figured out that she had overheard what I had said to my father, I was heartbroken. For a while, I understood but then I was angry all over again for her not coming to me to talk to me about it. Instead, she chose to run.I knew that her father and family were helping her and a dark part of me wanted to go to war over it. I knew that they probably even encouraged her to run.  Thankfully, my Beta, Trevor, talked me out of a plan that could have killed countless werewolves. He also helped me under

POV Lance I stared at my little mate as I vaguely heard her Dad suggest that we get started. I was in awe of her. I couldn't believe that she was actually sitting next to me after all this time. I looked up startled when her father cleared his throat. Everyone was smirking at me and I sighed."What?" I growled."What do you want?" her dad pressed and I rose an eyebrow."You know what I want. I want my mate to come home with me and join me in running our pack." I began.Samantha looked pained at my words and her family glared at me after I said that so I continued."But, I want Samantha to be happy, safe and comfortable even more than that so I will do what I need to do to ensure that she is." I added.The room seemed to relax and Eddie smiled at me in encouragement.  He looked proud. Samantha's mom and Stacy both looked pleased at my answer but her Dad, Troy and Sean still looked suspicious. Samantha looked

 Stacy finished the contract and everyone read and signed it. Samantha was exhausted and she could tell that the others were too."Okay! Everyone to bed! Samantha, you are staying in this suite in the other bedroom. Your Mom and I have the master bedroom in here. Sean, you'll be in the room next door. Troy and Stacy, you'll be on the other side. Lance, here's the rest of your rooms for your warriors. Sean here's the rest of ours, please sort everyone out for me. We will meet in the lobby at 8am for breakfast and then plan the rest of our stay."  her Dad ordered and she shook her head at him."Do you think that I should even try to ask for you to stay with me?" Lance whispered in her ear and she blushed."No way. First of all, I say no. Secondly, my Dad and brother would kill you for even suggesting it." she snapped and he chuckled."Fine." he agreed as we stood."I'll come by here around 7:45 so we can go downstairs together, alri

POV LanceI smiled at the angry glare I received from Troy. If he thought that I was going to back down now that I was so close to Samantha, he had another thing coming. I didn't blame him though, if she was my sister, I would have been just as bad if not worse. She was a treasure and I was glad that she had a family and pack that understood that.Of course, that meant that I had to work that much harder to prove that I would treat her the way she should be treated. She should always be treated as the Goddess that she is. I smirked when I spotted her rolling her eyes at her brother's glare. He scoffed in return but then went back to eating.I looked over at Sammy in awe. That kiss we shared was beyond incredible. She was everything I could ever want. Strong, sweet, smart, and beautiful both inside and out. I was going to do anything and everything I could to be worthy of her.I bravely put  my arm around the back of Sammy's chair and
