Jake's POVAs we made our way up to the On The Border near the mall, I could smell the food from a mile away, and it was just as alluring as the first time, the second time...ah hell, every time that we came here. It was a chain restaurant but the atmosphere of this one was just so soothing that we didn't really care about how the people acted, as we mostly just took to ourselves."Nervous about tonight?""Am I not always nervous when it comes to Alex? I'm a submissive, yet I carry myself as if I'm a switch or a dom, I enjoy letting her be the one in charge even when I'm so used to being the one in charge because of our family.""That's understandable man, but when it comes to relationships, especially your mate, you have to be able to draw a line between the two and when to keep them separate and when to join the two.""Fair enough," I said as we pulled up to our spot, getting out of the car, we stepped towards the door and waited for someone to take us to a booth, "What am I so worr

Alexis' POVWhen I tell you that the look on Jack's face was priceless, I mean it, if I had a camera I would've taken a picture so that I would never forget the cute blush that crept over his face. I watched as he tried, and failed, to fight his blush knowing that I wasn't bluffing. If I had wanted to fuck him right now, he would be on his knees begging for me, and he knew it, but he wasn't the focus of my attention anymore; I had gotten what I wanted from him, but I still had questions for Jake."Love, if I may ask you, what's your favorite food? I know you drink way too much soda, but for some reason that I have yet to understand, instead of damaging you, it heals you.""I'd have to say guacamole, I like Chimichangas a lot too, but I've always had a soft spot for guac.""If I made it so that there were ingredients for guac grown at my place, would you be willing to come to visit me next week?"When I tell you that there were no words to describe the look of disbelief and joy on this

Lucifer's POVJack and Jake hadn't been home in quite a while, not that I blame them, they had a lot on their plates. Mate bonds, Criminal activity, protecting their family, you name it they probably have to think or deal with it. As Jake watched us, playing with Jameson, Jack and I watched the rapist that changed their lives groan in pain at the burns over his body."You know, I didn't think that the thermite pit would be that effective, and I have never been happier to be proven wrong.""What brought you to us today, Lucy? You usually don't visit us unless there's something behind it," Jack said as he threw a cigar my way, lighting his own and taking a long drag, he inherited my lungs."Well, I haven't seen you guys in a while, and you found Gloria at the restaurant earlier so I thought I'd have a talk and see what insight I could give. Maybe even clue you in on what her plan is currently, It's not as bad as you would think, but it is Gloria so you've always got to be careful there.

Milo's POVI woke up again in the void, this has been going on for at least a week now, I wake up in darkness and die in darkness. It had gone on for so long that I don't even fear what comes anymore seeing as there seems to be no end, may as well embrace the cold. I had created a small cube that reminded me of the Dwemer Puzzle Cube, that played music to keep me distracted while I tried to come up with ways to escape the void, no matter how many times I died I was determined to find a way out of here. At the moment, "Seven" a song by Boondox was playing, I couldn't control the music box so much as I could will a certain song to play that matched my mood. Seven was a song that I usually woke up to, it symbolized that I was usually scared when I first woke up until I remembered everything. Where I was, Who I am, and How I got here, usually dying the previous day; At this point, I was so used to the cold embrace of the void that I would be more terrified if it was warm and inviting, as

Alexis' POVAfter the longest day that we have had yet, we had finally finished up with all the pack business we had on our 'to do' list, including but not limited to: Inventory stock taking at the general store, the judgment of a few rogues who had requested refuge, and answering a seemingly infinite number of questions about Jacke from our pack. Overall, the day wasn't too bad, just tiring as for every task that we completed we had half a dozen questions to answer about our mate.'Are you sure he's your mate?''What happens if he loses his temper towards the pack?''Is he safe to have here? Or are you only saying he's safe to be here because he's your mate?'These questions and more had made me livid and wanting to rip limb from limb, but I couldn't for obvious reasons. I wasn't going to let their curiosities bring me down, no matter how irritated it made me, he was ours from start to end and as much as we would be there for him, we knew he would be there for us. After finishing the
