Ellie     When those words left Luca's mouth I am sure my world stopped for a moment. Jackson had been attacked and it didn't sound like it was a simple scratch to the face which that it was life-threatening.   The thought of him dying brought back the same sensation I had when Lex died. I didn't know what to do and, for a second, I almost forgot how to breathe as I tried to absorb the words. I was so happy and now everything was falling apart again.   I was sure the Moon Goddess was doing this on purpose. She was making me suffer for everything I did to Blake. She was trying to make me see that I had the most wonderful mate and I was bitch to push him away like we did when we first met.   But I was terrified. I was dragged to pack like a piece of meat and then I found out that my mate was the son of the man who murder my family. If that wasn't enough, I was told my Alpha could kill me,

LINK       I looked across the table and I wondered how the hell we had gotten to this point.   I didn't want another mate. I had a mate and she was murdered. I watched as her life slipped away from her and there was nothing I could do to protect her. I watched as my pup paid the price for James' ignorance and he callously took its life away. I didn't need Jamie trying to replace her and neither did I need her love.   I probably sound like some sort of bastard but I had always said if I was given a second chance at love, I would reject them because I didn't want them and they didn't need someone as messed as I am for their mate.   I couldn't reject her though. Not knowing that Blake was her brother and Ellie was his mate. The both of them would have me for dinner if they found out I had rejected Jamie without a valid reason and I didn't want to upset either of them - not whe

All my anger and my pain coming out in one hit. Every piece of emotion I had hidden from the world was coming out to a man I was supposed to hate but he was there for me when I needed him and I couldn't afford to push him away - not after the day I've already had and the news I've been given.   "I know it doesn't mean much right now but you can trust me El. I know I am an idiot and I know I have made mistakes but I am here to make up for them now. I will be here for as long as you need me and I have no intention of leaving while your family are in danger," Jayson whispered reassuringly.   I buried my head into his neck and continued to push all my emotions into the open. I decided to ignore my wolf who was shouting at me because she wanted Blake to calm her down and didn't like that I was in another male's arms. Though her growling was annoying as hell, I didn't let it bother me right now because I needed this and Blake wasn't here to hold m

ELLIE       "You need to stop. Seriously," I couldn't stop laughing as Blake poked my sides for the thousandth time. He hadn't stopped touching me since we walked out of Jackson's hospital room and he successfully growled at every single male in the hospital until they bowed their head in submission.   Even that made me laugh. Blake was one of the least terrifying people I knew and he didn't have it in him to kill most of the time. He was lovely and the things he did for me only made me fall more in love with him every single day - our bond never seemed to stop growing with each day that actually passed.   But the unmated males of the pack were seriously terrified of Blake. They thought he would rip their heads off if they so much as looked at me. Some of them had an unnecessarily active imagination and, through the pack link, I had seen the things they thought would happen to them - from litera

ELLIE       Biological sister? Twin? Saved?   I was speechless and confused. I had never been told that I had a sister. I had been told that my entire family were dead. That they were attacked when I was a child and I was given to David to keep me safe.   Nicole had never even mentioned it when I spoke to her in the hospital. She could have told me and she didn't mention anything. She kept it all to herself and now I was being told by some psycho that Charlotte, the bitch who wanted me dead, was my twin sister.   "While Nicole and Kyros kept you out of harm's way, Charlotte was forgotten about. She was left to die. And she blames you," Jonah spoke when I didn't say anything.   "B-Blames me? I-I don't understand," I just about managed to say. I really didn't understand what I was being told.   Charlotte was blaming me for something I
