I watched Barb pace nervously as my eyes adjusted to the dark. Toby had remained quiet, lost in his own thoughts. He had asked me about Taylor, but I had left before Cam had made it back to the pack house with him and had no news to share. Barb’s nervousness was beginning to rub off on me and I stood, wrapping the sole sheet I’d been provided around myself toga style. I needed to find a way out of here. I had been an idiot to come alone, now our captors were most likely going to kill all three of us.

                         I collapsed onto the bed, exhausted. Tristan had fought against me training the first few days I had been home, but I finally wore him down. The end result was training with him and the best warriors in the pack, and none of them held back. News of Xi’s movements was suspiciously lacking as well. I knew she was up to something, especially since I managed to escape before she could have the results of my blood tests. Knowing she was still out there was the only thing that convinced Tristan to allow me to train. I was training and learning how to be a Luna from the early morning until I collapsed into bed in th

Cam grabbed me by the arm and dragged me to my rooms with Barb, Taylor, and Toby flanking me. The common room devolved into a flurry of shredded clothing and wolves as, all around us, the pack shifted to defend me.

We don’t know why.” Cam spoke quickly. “Our prior

I groaned as I sat up, the silver had forced my wolf into hiding and I was feeling the soreness from the tussle with Owen. Lightheaded, I gingerly moved to relieve myself before collapsing back onto the metal cot. I needed to think. There had to be some way out of this mess. Xi couldn’t hold me for long before she would have to present me to the King for sentencing.            As if summoned by my thoughts, she appeared outside of my cell, grinning sinisterly at me. Through my half-closed eyelids, I could see she w

             “It’s not what you can do for me, Luna. It’s what I can do for you.” The Alpha responded coolly.            “What exactly would that be, Alpha Owen.” Jax snarled from behind me.            “I suggest you hold your tongue Beta.” Owen snapped. “However, it has come to my attention that your Alpha has been taken into royal custody.” &
