RAVEN I was still fuming, and Taylor breaking into snickers every few minutes didn’t help. Goddess, I can’t believe I fell for that. Urgh, I'm so angry right now. Liam had mind-linked not long ago to ask everyone to report to the packhouse meeting room. Me, Taylor and Nina, who had come to my room with more vases, now walked down the stairs together. "I wonder what it’s about..." Taylor murmured. "Maybe they found something?" I said as we entered the large hall that was extremely full. "Maybe." Taylor said, glancing around at the number of pack members that were gathered here. From my quick estimate, I think two thirds of the pack were here… I saw Liam standing there at the head of the room, talking to Zack, well mind linking… Liam was just nodding, his arms crossed with one hand on his chin. The frown on his face made me realise that he was still very much cold towards others. Although at times, I saw him bring those w

ROBYN It was mid-afternoon. The weather was cool yet the sun was shining brightly and the windows were wide open. The sound of people shouting, some of the boys playing ball and a few girls laughing in a room down the hall, filled my ears. If I didn’t know better, I would never have thought such an environment would be shadowed by the eyes of a killer. Right now, everything seems so normal. Raven and I were seated on my bed as I silently observed the girl in front of me. I don’t mean to be a bitch, but seeing Raven pay so much attention to Liam and literally just ignore Damon was fucking breaking my heart. At the same time, I wanted to go over to her and shout at her for doing that. Did she not see that he was fucking hurting? I wish I could just comfort him, but I knew that we couldn’t just be friends, not with that situation. Me staying away was for the best. I felt like I had been cheated too… I remember the first time I told him ou

LIAM Watching her sit there licking her lips as she watched me made me smile slightly. She was gorgeous and fucking perfect. The way her eyes sparkled when she looked at the cake in front of her… That hint of cleavage that I can see... Her hair framed her face, her bangs falling into her eyes, and she had smoky black makeup. Her scent enveloped me welcomingly, as much as I wish that we could be forever, I had to prepare myself that maybe, just maybe, this curse wouldn’t break. I know I said I don’t give a shit, but I would give a lot to just get to spend more time with her. I remember what the book held, I had a pretty good photographic memory, but there was nothing that seemed to hold the answer, no matter how many times I replayed it in my head. That’s why, in this crappy time that surrounded us, I wanted to fulfil the promises I had made to her long ago… Or at least some of them, no matter how fucking mundane they were. Watching her eat tha

TAYLOR I forgive him, I had to, I’m too fucking in love with him not to. Zack was standing so close to me I can feel his breath on my neck, his fingertips ghosting up my bare arms, not touching but close enough that I could sense the sparks of the bond rippling through the little air between us. “Are you fucking sure?” He nibbled softly on his bottom lip, all that was standing between us was this barrier and now that's gone there's nothing keeping us apart. “I’m sure…” I replied quietly. “I can give you more time, if that’s what you need.” I know he would, that’s what makes him so damn perfect for me. His patience. “I forgive you Zack.” I step in closer, my still damp chest lightly grazing against his own, those sparks rushing through us both. He closed his eyes for a moment, letting the feeling of it overpower him until his arm snaked around my waist and he pulled me against his hard body firmly, his perfect hazel eyes snappin

RAVEN The following day, I had left the cottage early after showering and headed to training feeling restless and nervous. My heart was breaking and although I knew this was a decision I had decided on, it still hurt. I would talk to Damon no matter what, right after, I couldn’t keep delaying it. After training and once I had showered, I quickly grabbed an oversized hoodie that fell to my thighs and some over-the-knee boots. I left the packhouse, my hair still wet from the shower, heading straight to Damon’s like a woman on a mission. Not today. Not today, nothing was going to stop me. I rang the doorbell, letting out a breath I didn’t know I was even holding when I finally reached Damon’s home. ‘Damon? I'm outside.’ I said through the link softly. My heart cracking a little more. ‘This must be important, huh.’ His deep, sexy voice came. ‘Hmm.’ I replied, feeling awful and waiting for him to open up, he did a fe
