Broken System

CHLOE POV"Are you okay," I ask as Logan gets dressed for our pack's celebration of life ceremony.He turns towards me slowly. Almost as if I pulled him from some deep thought. He nods and offers me a smile, but I can see the pent-up emotion in his eyes. He turns towards his mirror to finish tying his tie, and I sigh."You can talk to me, Love. I know it's been hard, but we are in this together," I say as I approach him from behind.I wrap my arms around his waist, and he pauses. He drops his arms over mine and relaxes into my touch."How did you do it, Chloe? How did you handle losing your mom? You were completely alone," Logan asks in a voice barely above a whisper.That all too familiar sting erupts in my chest, and I have to clear the emotion from my throat before I can respond."I just did. The days keep coming after someone leaves us

Goodbye

LOGAN POV "The other Alphas have left. I escorted them," Gavin says as he steps into my dad's office. I nod but don't turn around. I don't want my friend to see the remaining tears on my cheeks. If I am lucky, he will still need to get dressed, and he will leave me alone for a bit longer. "Logan, are you alright," Gavin asks as I hear one of the chairs sag from his weight. I sigh and turn around. I wipe my face before shaking my head. "No," I mumble, and Gavin nods. "I wouldn't be either," he whispered back as I sit down in dad's chair. "It feels wrong even being in here," I admit, and he looks around at my father's office. "We could always use yours for a while. You don't have to take over this space right now," Gavin says as his

Sister

CHLOE POV It's time, and I am scared. I know these people attacked us, and I know these men are the definition of evil, but I am still afraid. I am scared that once Atticus kills them, he will lose himself even more. My mother once told me, killing whether it is justified or not, tears at the soul. You should only do it as a last resort. Since I have experienced killing someone, I know her statement is true. Jasmine hasn't left my mind. I now know that even if the person deserves to die, it still hurts you, and Atticus is already hurt. So hurt. Wounded to his core, actually. "Should he really be handling this," I ask Logan as we approach the battlefield we have decided to use? All the prisoners have been lined up, and our warriors let us know it is time. We are actually a little late since we were talking to mourning pack members.&

Together

LOGAN POV Rated R I tense as I hear the shower turn off. Both Chloe and I have been mostly silent since the executions, and I still have nothing to say. I have no idea how to help either Atticus or Karina, and I know she wants us to help. All I know is change is coming, and I want to prepare. I want my mate and my pack safe. I want nothing to do with another couple's drama.The bathroom door opens, and Chloe steps out smelling and looking amazing, making me smile. Today was draining. I celebrated my father's life, gained his title, witnessed the carnage of eighteen people, and had orders placed on my body, but none of that matters. Not when my mate is wrapped in a towel in my bedroom. I stand up and close the space between us. I don't want to think about what happened today, yesterday, or the day before. I w

SS 1

GAVIN POV Today is the day! At any moment, I could lock eyes with my mate! I can't believe it. I have dreamed about this day for so long. I fantasized about it when I was a pup. The other males laughed, but I hadn't cared. The dream of having one person specifically made for me didn't seem stupid. The only thing that is stupid is that I chose to forget that dream. I decided to sleep with not one but two females. I pushed the thought of meeting my mate to the back of my mind so I could be cool. I had hooked up with two females who thought it would be cool to be with the pack's Beta. "Breathe, son," Dad says, and mom laughs from her spot next to the oven. I look up from my eggs, and I realize my hand is frozen in midair, holding my glass of orange juice. "Crap. Yeah, sorry," I reply before taking a

SS 2

GAVIN POV Anxiety twists and twirls through my brain as I approach the stage room. Hope and fear battle in my stomach, giving me the urge to puke. "Looking a little green," Logan whispers, and I nod before peeking through the closed doors. From the tiny slit in the wood, I can make out a line of girls standing on the stage. Their smiles and faint conversations look genuine. Not one seems nervous. I place my hand on the door and close my eyes. I send up a silent prayer as my friend watches me intently. "It will be okay. You will find her, and everything you have dreamed about will come true," Logan mumbles, and I look at him. He has nothing but pure confidence in his blue-brown eyes, and my stomach knots even more. "What if I don't? What if I am one of the poor bastards that never meets the one. I

SS 3

GAVIN POV "I thought you were going to head for Outcast tonight if your mate wasn't in the pack," Dad says as he comes into my room and sits on my bed like he owns the place. I glare at him before looking back down at my wood carving. "I'm going to head out tomorrow," I mumble before scraping my knife across the rough surface of my failed squirrel. Dad makes a sound in his throat but doesn't say anything. He glances around at my room and then sighs. "You know your mom wasn't born in the pack. I had to go to Outcast to find her. You could always come to me for advice," Dad says when his eyes land back on me. I completely forgot that my mom was not born Thurman. She and Dad met at Outcast during a typical hunt. "I forgot," I whisper as I stare at my dad

SS 4

GAVIN POV Have you ever stared in a mirror and questioned every single one of your features? Have you ever noticed every pore and imperfect line that makes up your face? Well, I can now say I have. I used to think I was a relatively confident person. I would even go as far as to say I considered myself to be good-looking. That is until this morning when I spent an hour evaluating everything that makes me who I am on the outside. I am on the tall side since the average male is 5'11"-6'3", and I'm 6'3. So I have that going for me. I'm not as tall as Logan is nowadays, but he never seems to stop growing. And since he shifted, he has grown even taller. But I am a good height. I have a muscular physique, but that is common amongst beta and Alpha bloodlines, even before obtaining a wolf, our heritage shows. I do have extra muscle from all the training I do with Logan. So I'm on the beefier side, which most females tend to li

SS 5

GAVIN POV "I never wanted to return to Thurman pack. I was expecting to be mated to someone from somewhere else," Shannon admits as we enter my apartment. I toss the key card on the counter while watching her hips sway. I follow behind her like she is my own personal sun. The thought of her being mated to anyone but me is absurd. She is mine, but the fact she mentioned the pack is curious. "What's wrong with pack Thurman," I ask, and she turns around to find me only an inch away. I slide my finger along her jaw, and she lips her pink lips. Her cheeks flush a little, and her eyes stare into mine. I can spot every emotion she has, and it amazes me. It amazes me because everything I see shining back at me mirrors what's in my own heart. "Umm...I...Can you stop doing that? I can't think," Shannon whispers

SS 6

GAVIN POV I smile as I look around at the calm surroundings. This is a nice place to meet our wolves for the first time. It has healthy-looking grass, and the earth isn't covered with concrete. It's probably the least modern area in all of Outcast. "Pretty. Right," Shannon asks, and my eyes slide off of the tranquil scenery. I give her a crooked smile before shrugging. "It's nice," I answer before closing the small distance between us. I haven't been able to go five minutes without touching her all day. I can't believe I found her on the first day. "Nice? Well, I happen to love it here. It's the only spot in the city where we can connect to nature," Shannon says as I wrap my arm around her waist. I kiss her forehead softly before looking down at he
