WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS VIOLENT SCENES AND A DESCRIPTION OF BLOOD. NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART. PLEASE, READ THIS ONLY IF YOU'RE 18+Enyoy xVincent pov  I stand in the middle of the arena, scanning the crowd forming around me. I never really thought about how many shifters were in my pack, as I see a few every day, but now the realization hits in. Hundreds of shifters of all ages sit in their seats, eager to see the end of this fight. My gaze settles on Katie, who has taken a seat in the front row and is eagerly waving her hand at me. As if I need her support. I close my eyes and beg the Moon Goddess to help me with this. I don't want to fight Enya, but I can only prove my position here by doing just that. As Alpha, I am t

Roma pov I notice Enya looking at me as she hangs on the wall. I feel bad for the kid; she's not as bad as everyone thinks. It's just that her life wasn't really in her hands. Decisions were made for her, and choices were taken without her being around. I've always believed that there is more to a person than meets the eye. This kid is just another example of how right I have been all along. She may think I'm asleep, that I didn't hear the exchange of words between her and my son, but I heard it all. Every word that passed her and Vincent's lips. It's a shame that the two of them found each other only to let everything and everyone get in their way. I'll never understand young people. Ever. I watch her as she takes one look at me and immediately turns her face away. She looks rough, beaten to a pulp, and still breathing. It's not long after my son leaves

Enya pov  The moment the guards release me from the chains and cuffs, I swear I feel like I've been reborn. I've never felt so free as I do now. My gaze wanders to Roma, who sighs as he sits down on his bed. I know he only wants the best, but his efforts will never turn into success. He can help anyone but me because I don't want to be saved. Roma is a wonderful man, even though I didn't initially think so as I do now- he has proven to be the kindest and most understanding person I've ever met. He has made my journey that little bit more special. The guards replace the old iron cuffs for shiny new ones and tug at them as they drag me on. There's no need to be aggressive because I don't bother to fight back or run away, but I guess this is the side of them I haven't seen before-the ug

Vincent pov  One moment she's here, in my arms, lips pressed to mine. The next moment she's in the hands of the paramedics, who are obviously done helping her. Some of the nurses gave me dirty looks that only stopped when I barked out commands. I don't care who they think they are- if I say they have to do something, no one has the right to disobey orders. I spend about half an hour by the operating room, and I'm already tired of waiting. I can't stand around here like an idiot and do nothing. Whether she survives or not is in the hands of experienced doctors and time. That's all. I have enough shit to deal with. I mind-link Aros and ask him to gather all pack members of age in the arena. It's the only place they can all fit so I can explain the rest of the plans to them. On my way t

Vincent pov We did it... We raided the damn Alliance headquarters and blew it up. The rest of the packs involved set out to raid the hideouts- by the end of the day, there will be no trace of the Alliance left. They'll go into history the way they operated, in the shadows, unknown to humanity. We evacuated the whole place, taking only a few men as hostages. I found the girl I was supposed to spare, and she was right- that little thing couldn't hurt a fly. Still, I have to give her credit for her courage. She put herself before the others and offered herself just to save them. No wonder Enya called her a friend- they're very much alike. I mean, they sacrifice a lot for the ones they love, but my Enya has the spirit of a true warrior. I shake my head to get rid of the thoughts. I can't call Enya mine just because we're mates. Our union is impossible.
