Arthur's POV By the time I was finished with her, I was able to fish out a thing or two from her. Name: Oregon Octavia Age: 15 Winters old Parents: unidentified Pack: Firedunes is the suspect, but there was a touch of Airing Dal. So far, unidentified. Intentions of breaking in: confusion. That is what she said. Flashback "Why are you here Oregon?" I ask again. She now had half an arm, and she was uttering a string of expletives I didn't think exist. "she is coming," she laughs, her mouth dripping of blood. She wipes off with the blood with her other hand. "Who is coming?" I press, switching on the chain saw machine again. "Aren't you a little too curious Alpha A?" she smiles, leaning on the wall. "You do realize that I could cut the hand right?" I question, not sure if she could handle it. She can't die without telling me what I need. "Oh I'm sure dear Alpha," she chuckles looking up at me, "Although I hope that when you take the other arm stop breathing." I place the ch

Quinn's POV He shut me out. Before I could even explain, he just stopped me from talking as a whole. I mean, I know that this conversation was not going to be particularly fun and games for him, and I know talking about Accalia probably still breaks his heart, but I had to.I would never hurt Arthur knowing fully well how much a death of a loved one cost. Especially one you were not ready for. I understand that, really I do, and his outburst, maybe I understand that too, but at the same time, I'm annoyed that he yelled at me in the first place. It's not like I wanted to annoy him and he knows that, but Echo is important. If anything, Echo is like the only remaining part of Luna Accalia, and that alone should deem him more important than just being the kid of an Alpha. He is a product of a loving couple that at one time, promising each other a forever. Surely that should mean something. Does he really just care about Luna Accalia only?I open the water in the tub, as I just want to

Quinn's POV "You lied." it was Dawn and I was on the call with her. We were still at the table, just wrapping up eating."Huh?" I burp, covering my mouth."You said you were gonna call as soon as you got there, but it's been a day and I didn't know if you were dead and if I should put up a missing persons report, what happened to the calling plan?" she goes out at me.I grasp. I had completely forgotten that I had to call her. Truth be told, I have been thinking of ways that we could avoid punishment, and survive, and Dawn although on my mind, was the least of my worries.I came here with good hope and have been directly dodging bullets. Lucinda almost killed me, the counsel thinks I'm part of Arthur's crazy vendetta. I just came to heal a child and maybe get to love the father as the bonus, but no, I get to break up a family, and may even die in the next 24 hours.I don't even have a boyfriend. Not that I've never had one,"I hated Luke," Lia interrupts. "He was stuck up and full o

Arthur's POV Her eyes glowed, not the shade of grey that I saw a couple of minutes ago, they glowed power pink. I tilted my head and caressed her cheeks, and for a second, they changed shades from pink to red."Daddy?" Echo calls out, and Quin pulls away from me. Her face is flushed, and although she has melanin dark skin, her cheeks had a shade to her that showed that she was blushing. I still hold on to her, letting her smell and the taste of her lips linger, and as savoring that was, I felt my heart hurt. Not just a normal type of pain that I can get over, but sharp shooting pain that felt like my heart was breaking.Accalia.I felt her. I felt her beside me and it felt like I was cheating on her, even though she was gone. So when my sense kick in, I let go of Quin and leave without saying a word, leaving her both confused at shocked Echo.The moment I get outside, I stand there for a second, my body feeling all sorts of heat, energy, sparks, and tingles, the kind I've never felt,

Quin's POV "No, no, no," I place mom's phone on the table and run to Arthur's forbidden attic. I pass Echo along the way and for some odd reason, he follows me without saying anything. When I get there, I don't knock, but I just barge in and this time, Arthur isn't shocked. "What do you want now?" he utters. He is seating on the couch that is looking at the door, with a drink on his hand. "Dawn is on her way with the cops. She is an hour away from here," I don't care about his sass at the moment because I know If I don't do anything, and merely take this as payback for treating me like trash, then this will go down. The legacy that they have built in Ezra will go up in flames and that amount of blood, I don't want on my hands."What?!" he is now up on his feet, yep, his eyes shows anger, betrayal, and hurt all at the same time."You led your people here?" he takes big strides toward me. "What, no! I wouldn't do that. She tracked my phone when Lia started talking then when I thre
