Only a few minutes later I spotted a car parked on the side of the road, Theo!My heart started racing as we pulled closer, he was standing out there waiting for me and I couldn't contain myself as the SUV rolled to a stop and his silver eyes practically pulled me from the car.I don't even think the car had completely stopped when I ran from it and thumped straight into his hard chest, swooping myself under his arms, squeezing him as tight as I could. The tears streamed down my face as I took in his deep citrus scent, but his tense arms pulled me back by my shoulders as a low rumble from Kal erupted behind us that I ignored.He was searching my face and I realized he thought I was in trouble, he hadn't seen me since Kal took me home and he was taking in my marked neck and my tears with caution."I'm fine Theo, really, I just missed you... hug me back!" My voice rang out in frustration.I was annoyed at his resistance, but he instantly brought me i

Theo wouldn't be so easily convinced, he knew that we grew up learning how to put on a brave face, and that my mother had been preparing me to be someone's Luna just in case. He watched Kal's movements, and mine, but I knew that Kal was watching him as well, and Theo was only seeing what Kal wanted him to, not there was anything to hide. "I hope you don't mind Octavia, but we've placed your rooms a few floors above your old room, it's where all the visiting Alpha's usually stay with their company," Theo's voice rang out."That's fine Theo," I smiled, "I'll have to slip down to my old room tomorrow though and grab a few things that got left behind."He nodded, "Troy will show you up, you're welcome to walk around freely, and there will be breakfast ready in the morning so feel free to go down and help yourselves," he winked at me."Theo, are you serious?!" I shouted a little too enthusiastically happy, startling everyone else as I anxiously awaited h

Theo was surprised that I asked him, but never let his face show it.“I’m not going to lie Avi, he’s not great,” he held the back of his neck like he always does when he’s stressed out, “I will come up with a reason to talk to your Alpha, but you should go retrieve what you need from your room quickly,” he paused and looked pained to speak. “Rowan went a little, off, when you left. I caught him sleeping in your room multiple times, so his scent will likely be all over it. I’ve ordered him to stay away from here for a few days.”Fuck. I was concerned for Ro, but I was more annoyed than anything, I didn’t want to have to explain anything else to Kal when we were in a good place.“Kal will literally kill him Theo.” My voice was pained to say the words, but Theo just looked like he knew, like he had accepted that Ro’s behaviour could land him in Kal’s bad books.“L

Octavia's POVI was covered in a blanket as I tried to catch up to myself, taking in everything that happened as Eathen looked at me with worry, and Theo looked at me with shock. I could tell Kal was trying to remain composed for my sake, but I couldn’t face anyone, Rowan was like this because of me, and if Kal hadn’t of stopped me I would have killed him.“It’s all my fault Kal,” I squeaked out as I buried my head into him. How was I supposed to explain what happened to him, he wouldn’t trust me after this, and I couldn’t blame him.I felt his chest rumble as his words bellowed, “Leave us.” Neither of them put up a fight as they closed the door on the way out. Kal set me on my feet and placed his shirt on me, but I couldn’t bring myself to look at him, I was so ashamed and furious still.He grasped my chin slightly and brought my vision to his, “You need to tell me what ha

Day 1 The darkness took over and my eyes struggled to allow any bit of light back in as it started to fade. Did I faint again? From what? I couldn't recall anything other than changing my clothes. As I tried to grasp what happened to me, I realized it was colder where I was than I remembered it being. I tried to take in scents around me but I was only met with a damp odor. I called out to Echo, but was met with no response. My heart started to race, maybe my powers brought me somewhere again... Kal! I shot straight up and frantically tried to adjust to the light and look around, I couldn't see Kal, I couldn't smell him, he would never leave me... where the fuck was I?  My mind was racing a mile a minute as I took in my surroundings, I was in a room and on a bed but I didn't recognize anything around me. I couldn't reach Echo or Kal but this didn't seem like a dream.My wrists were burning, I looked down
