Haley After I dismissed our waiter, a young waitress takes his place. She is definitely eyeing Avery but she isn’t inappropriate which is fine by me. You can look but don’t touch. The food is amazing just as Avery promised. It’s still too early for the movie but he parks our car at the drive in theatre and we walk to a nearby ice cream shop. “So tell me, what was your favorite thing to do as a child?” “Trying to know all my deep dark secrets Haley?” “Absolutely,” I giggle. “Well, my dad use to take me and Mason fishing up the river. We’d make a yearly camping trip out of it.” “When was the last time you guys went?” “It’s been a few years.” “You and Mason should go. Don’t let traditions die with him, it’s a good way to keep his memory alive.” “I’ll think about it. Now how about you?” “Easy, play the violin. I love the emotion music can pull from someone and the sound of each note blending together to create a beautiful melody. My aunt taught me how to play.” “Your aunt?” “My

Alpha Avery I wake up the next morning in pure bliss. My beautiful mate spent the night and is currently sleeping peacefully in my arms. I wanted so badly to mark her last night but I didn’t want to push my luck. I hope she doesn’t regret what we did last night when she wakes up. “Alpha,” says Mason through the mind link. “You better have a good reason for interrupting my morning.” “Sorry but we captured a Red Moon scout. He was watching you and Haley last night.” “I’m on my way.” I cut the mind link and carefully climb out of bed. I push my pillow under Haley’s arm and thankfully it works. She doesn’t wake up as I change and head out to the cells. I moved the cells from the basement to it's own underground building. Both Spartan and I are raging mad someone was watching us during our date and we didn’t notice. As I reach the cells I can smell burn flesh and hear screams from pain. My brother appears to have done his job well, maybe the wolf will be ready to talk. “What is Alph

Alpha Avery Haley has pretty much moved into my room. She has been here every night and I love it. Slowly she has been bringing more and more of her clothes into my room, taking up very little close space but I’ll soon change that. I have been wanting to bring up marking her but we are in such a good place that I have been to nervous to bring it up. I trained with her this morning for a bit and I am very pleased with how strong she has gotten. I have meetings all afternoon and have to leave her with the boys. She has been a bit annoyed with me for keeping Harrison and Aiden as her guards, but with the threat of an attack by Alpha Jake I am not taking any chances. If I could get away with locking her in the pack house I would, but she always seems to find a way around my orders when I want her to stay in the house so I gave up. “Hey Mason, ditching training this afternoon?” “No, I just wanted to inform you that warriors and Haley’s guards were searching the woods near the training g

Alpha Avery Spartan is furious to see our mate, naked in that bastards arms. “Surround them,” I order my warriors who veer off from me. I can hear Haley is still putting up a fight. “Go to hell,” she hisses at him and I can’t help but feel pride at how strong she is being at this moment. “I am surprised you are still awake, but no matter. You can’t move. It’s time to return you to where you belong.” I snarl at him when we reach him and Haley. His body stiffens and I can see real fear in his eyes. “Put my mate down now. She’s not going anywhere.” Alpha Jake smiles at me as he pulls Haley closer to him. “I have a surprise for you Avery.” Out of now where a ball of dark light is launched from behind Alpha Jake and it hits one of my wolves. My warriors howls in pain until his body stills. I feel the snap of my warriors life being taken from my pack. “I’d like you to meet Layla, a dark witch.” I don’t know how Alpha Jake got a dark witch to work for him and right now I don’t c

Haley I watch in horror as black veins quickly spread throughout Avery’s body all heading towards his heart. I don’t even think as I lean down and kiss him. I don’t know how I am doing it but I can feel a warm flow through me into Avery as something dark and cold enters me. I feel like I am being stabbed from the inside out as the coldness spread throughout my body. “Haley! Stop!” I feel like I am choking on something as I struggle to breath. I feel myself collapse onto the ground as everything fades into black. I feel cold. I hug my knees to my chest trying to get warm as my body shivers uncontrollably. Everywhere I look is pitch black and I can’t even feel Hazel. “Hazel?” There is no reply and I begin to panic. “Hazel!?” This must be it. I died and I am alone. At least I know that means Avery is safe and his life is no longer threatened by my existence. It hurts to know that I’ll never see him again, never hold him in my arms but at least he is alive. I hope he finds a second
