Brooklyn- I couldn’t believe it. My father was alive. Not only was he alive, but the hunters had him. Just when I thought things couldn’t become more complicated, I was proven wrong. With everything that is happening, was getting my father away from the hunters even an option? There was no telling where they were even keeping him. If it weren’t for the fact that the hunter had said that they needed me to get him to talk, I wouldn’t even know if he was still alive after all these years. What have they even been doing with him for the past thirteen years? “Why didn’t you tell me any of this sooner?” I heard Jarod ask, but my mind was still focused on what I had just heard. In one night, my entire world has been turned upside down. Even though I was still upset with Tate, I needed him close to me right now. Standing from the desk, I moved around the desk. He gave me a look, but I didn’t feel like deciphering it at the moment. When I sat down on h

Brooklyn-Standing in the middle of the warehouse, I was wondering if Shane was even going to show. It has been roughly twenty minutes since we arrived and still no sign of him. Wonder if he caught onto our plan somehow and turned around. If that was the case, I wasn’t sure how to get him to release my father.I didn’t think it was a perfect plan, but I didn’t think it would go wrong before it even started. Even Tate was growing impatient. Even with him standing a few feet away, I could feel the tension rolling off him in waves. We have been communicating nonstop through our mate link, he was starting to get concerned as well.Shane should have been here by now. In fact, he should have arrived well before us from what Eric was saying. He was spotted only a few miles out, by one of the guards, before we arrived. I started fidgeting with the nail on my thumbs, trying to distract myself.“Stop.” Tate spoke through the link.

Brooklyn- “Just hang tight, I am working on a few things.” Tate’s voice rung through my head like a melody, calming me instantly. “What is going on?” I asked, not sure of much at this point. Other than hearing what Tate and my father were saying, I didn’t know what was going on. On the surface, it looks as if everything was going wrong. I knew I had a feeling things were not going to go as we planned. It had been too easy, but how bad were things really? Just by looking at Tate, I could see a lot was going on in his head. We had all agreed that other than Tate, no one was to link with me, that way I could continue to act the part I was supposed to be playing. Admittingly it wasn’t that hard, but if I was being honest, I wasn’t entirely acting. I was scared beyond belief. From the moment my father hit Tate, everything changed. “We have more hunters and wolves coming at us from all sides. We are going to try to get them to come inside and trap t

Tatum-No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get close enough to Shane to take him out. One after another wolves and hunters alike kept me away from Shane. Every time I got a glimpse of him he was standing back, just watching. It almost seemed as if he were amused by this.I just needed a small break from others attacking me, just long enough to take a break in the chaos to get to him. Every time I thought I had time to make my way towards him, I would get slammed again by someone else. I think it was time to get the ones we had hidden in the warehouse to join.While we were making waves in our attacks and knocking others out, we would probably get further if we brought more in. It would also allow me to get to Shane without being interrupted. So far it looked as if we were winning, only losing a few in the process.“It is time.” I spoke through the link, connecting to all the warriors hidden away.In just a matter of seconds and

Brooklyn-“Brook…” I heard Eric say aloud, yet it sounded so far away.“I don’t think she can hear you.” Another voice said, but I was unsure of who was speaking, as that voice sounded far away as well, but also slightly unfamiliar.“Is there anything you can do for him?” I heard Eric ask.“Not here I can’t. We need to get him back to the pack. There is some sort of poison on the blade.” I heard Jarod say.That is when everything clicked, I was still latched on to a very dead Shane. I had been so focused on what I was doing that I allowed myself to become oblivious to everything else. Tate had been stabbed and I didn’t even know if he was okay. Releasing Shane, I took one last look and saw that he was indeed very much dead.When I turned, I found Eric, my father, and Jarod surrounding Tate, who was still laying on the ground unconscious. Jarod was examining the blade th
