Chapter Twelve Ireland POV I went to the pack house and showered. Erik brought me some food before insisting to sleep on the oversized chair in my room. I told him he could sleep on the bed with me but he insisted that would not be okay with Oliver and he has enough to worry about with his mother. I can hear that he is asleep on the chair as I lay awake in the bed. I know he is as worried as I am that this wasn’t random rogues, that this was him, that maybe he has found us. I close my eyes trying to sleep, Belle is quiet trying to reserve her energy as the fight and silver wound have drained her.  I wince as I regrettably go to tuck my arm under my head. I hear the soft click of the door next door. The shower comes on and Oliver steps into it. I breathe a si

Chapter Fourteen Ireland POV I know he planned on rejecting me but his words still hurt. My friends knew I found my mate well except for Zander and Lilly but obviously he is lying to everyone. Lilly! The thought of her in the hospital bed hit me hard. I eat some food hoping to gain my energy back. ‘Belle are we ready to help Lilly she needs to join the festivities?’ I laugh to Belle.‘It will really drain us but let’s go Ivy and Lilly need us.’I pull Erik and Jason aside and let them know my plan to help Lilly. It is about 3 in the afternoon if I get there quickly she can join the activities. I know this will bring Oliver some happiness. He looks so stressed. He will be so happy to see h

Chapter Sixteen Jackson’s POV I hate being away from him even if it is just going to be temporary. I know he will return with them in a couple of weeks for the full moon but it hurts. I feel uneasy all the time and I don’t know if it is my feelings of being away from him or something is going on with them. I wanted to go with them but Ire no matter how broken he made her feel, said he needed me and that Jason would return and then he would stay by my side where he belonged. I trust her completely especially since she told me more about her because her trust in me grew. He is one of my best friends and I am trying hard not to avoid him but when I see him smile I can’t help but see the brokenness he created in her. I want to hit him when he laughs because he is the r

Chapter Eighteen Zander POV The Festivities of the Full Moon start in just a few days. There is so much to do but I feel weighed down by feelings toward my son. I love him, he is my heart and my only child and I have raised him to be a great Alpha and I thought a great mate. I feel like I failed in some way, I understand he is choosing his path as a way to keep the Pack strong but he could not be more wrong. I wish I could tell him but I can’t break her trust and I have to believe the Moon Goddess has a plan. I want to tell Lilly so bad what is going on to prepare her but I know she will feel heartbreak either way. Maybe I can get him to come to the realization on his own with just a little guidance. I mindlink Oliver to come to my office so we can talk about the festival. I think I have a plan. Oliver knocks, enters and hesita

Chapter Twenty Ireland POV I look around and I am in a beautiful woods, one that I have never seen before. I can see every star in the sky and the moon but it is light outside. I look around and approaching me is my wolf Belle. She nuzzles into me and I reach up and scratch between her ears. “Hey beautiful girl.” She begins to walk further into the forest and I follow after her. We approach a beautiful waterfall and she just sits down. I sit down next to her letting my feet dangle in the water.“Sweet girl you must be so tired.”I look toward the beautiful woman who appears next to me. Only one woman could be this beautiful. “Moon Goddess did the rejection kill me because I was tired from helping the pups? I didn&
