LIAM She was smiling, her hand that grasped mine as I held her in a chokehold, caressed my fingers. "You’re holding me." She whispered, making me instantly drop her. What the fuck was her problem? ‘Damon, Raven, Robyn - it’s Nina. Get the antidotes. My guess is it’s a mix of silver, wolfsbane and ricin again. Both Taylor and Zack can’t move. Bring a doctor immediately.’ I mind linked. ‘Where are you?!’ Raven asked, worry clear in her voice. ‘Your parents house.’ I replied, thinking this place was just bad fucking luck. ‘I'm coming!’ ‘I’ll get the antidote.’ Damon added. ‘I’ll get help and call the Alpha!’ Robyn said. "Why did you do this?" I asked, looking back at the fragile blonde on the floor. From the first man she killed to now, what was her fucking purpose? I demanded an answer. "I said… Answer me!" I growled, letting my Alpha command pour out of me. She instantly lowered her head,

DAMON It was a few days since everything had gone down. Me and Liam were in Nina’s room, that had been cleared out. We hadn't found anything more from her room, which was so damn clean you could smell it. The room had been emptied, giving her stuff to her grandmother if she wanted them. She refused and said to get rid of them, although I knew that was more her respect towards the pack because she was devastated at her granddaughter's truth and death. To think she was living here with so much hatred in her life… I walked over to the window. It looked out towards the training grounds, and I wondered how much time she spent here watching us, or Liam. Even in such a place, behind such an innocent mask, there was a killer, burning from within with hatred and vengeance… There are all types of masks that those around us wear; masked by our fake smiles and passive expressions, the lies hidden inside, the pain we hide to pretend we are normal… the jealousy, th

LIAM I picked her up, slinging her over my shoulder and stroking her ass in that tiny thong. Damn… As the days went by, she had become more and more confident. She was normally a tease but, in the bedroom… Fuck she was a whole new level. She knew what she wanted and she wasn’t afraid to ask for it. I kicked the bedroom door shut behind me before walking over to the bed. I tapped her ass lightly, dropping her onto the bed and making her bounce a little, my eyes going to her breasts in that sexy strappy bra that was teasing me way too fucking much… Her eyes stayed on me as she got on all fours, swinging her legs in those heels slowly as she wriggled her hips, making me swallow hard as I stared at her ass. "What’s wrong, Alpha? Not going to join me?" She teased smirking as she stared at my hardened shaft in my jeans, before crawling towards me as I pulled my top off. "I fucking am." I growled as she began to unbuckle my belt, now kneeling

RAVEN Zack and Taylor had just left, so I was clearing up. I pursed my lips, glancing at Liam who had been silent since Robyn had left, deep in thought. "You could have handled that a little better... In the kitchen, really, Liam?" I asked frowning slightly. He’d said to me earlier that he’d tell her before she left, I didn’t think he’d do it in here! I’d expected him to take it outside. My words seemed to snap him out of his thoughts, and he looked at me. "I’d kept my voice down. Only Damon heard. You and Zack were too busy with Taylor." "That’s still not nice, Liam." I persisted softly, walking over to him. He smiled slightly, and that knowing look that I often saw in his eyes lately was there again. "It made Damon go after her. If I took it outside, she would have left alone." I raised an eyebrow questionably as Liam began washing the plates. "Are you playing cupid? Liam don’t-" "I'm not… I'm

DAMONIt had been a few weeks since I had become Alpha, and although we were now two packs, we were still all over the place as there was still some stuff left to set up in my pack.My pack... It still felt surreal to say that.It was the night of the Blood Moon, and we were all over at the Westwood’s. Aunty and Uncle were leaving tomorrow for their six week holiday and would be back just before Kiara’s wedding. A holiday Liam had really pushed them into agreeing to. Aunty Red had been a little worried about Azura, but with everyone reassuring them, they were doing this, and they really damn needed it."Careful with the glasses, Zuzu." Raven was saying, looking at Azura who was balancing four glasses in her arms.She looked as beautiful as ever, yet there was no ache in my chest when I looked at her. It kind of felt weird that I ever had feelings for her. Yes, I still loved her, but definitely just as a friend."Did she wash her
