Eden POV. "Pup, go shift" dad orders, I groan again, we're all going on a run, I didn't want to shift or run, I haven't shifted since the day Gabrielle, aka the bitch, Arlo taught me that word, it means a female dog, got inside our lives. "N...nuu...nu wanna...g...ggo, I sleepy" I lie, I didn't need a nap, but I was pretending, hiding in momma's arms hoping she'd just put me down for a nap, I was feeling really emotional today, my wolf wanted to shift but I didn't want to. "Now Eden, don't make me force you" dad warns, I cry into momma's chest this time, she taps my back lightly, before starting to undress me, I didn't want to shift or go on a run, why won't they leave me alone. "Momma...I...I st..st...stay back" I tell her, my damn stutter was back."No baby, everyone is coming on the run, you have to come too" she explains, while finishing undressing me, she set me on the bed to shift, it was hard, real hard, both momma and dad had to help me, I almost gave in halfway through my

Nathaniel POV.My mate anger was hurting me, I knew we are connected, her feelings and mine, but I never knew how badly it would hurt me. Her anger, her frustration, it's the same feeling I get from Eden, a sad Oméga can make a full pack sad. A mad mate could only hurt her mate, I felt an aching pain in my chest, I couldn't do anything to that, I couldn't endure the pain anymore. Deciding to take a breath, I walked out of the house to the outside, fresh air would help me think, I need to check on Eden but Gabriella's anger would be the death of me. If I ignore Eden the pain would seep into the whole pack, everyone would feel her hurt then, I was stuck between two choices, both of them hurt. Standing outside the pain inside my chest haven't eased, I felt pulled toward both girls, but going to one would hurt the other, my wolf was being tortured, he haven't had a chance to play with Eden ever since Gabriella got in our life, on the band Gabriella refused to interact or play with anyo

Nathaniel POV.I started to get better, it took me some time to heal up, Eden would visit me, in secret from my mate but she'd come late at night and sleep with me in the clinic then be taken off to her room or Arlo's room, her favorite spot. Tristan gets his chance with her too, she loves him too but she'll still end up sleeping in Arlo's room. He promised her to color her hair as he does him, Arlo would rock blue hair one day, green the day before, red tomorrow. For now, his hair is brown, natural brown for once, but Eden still wants her hair to be blue like his were, mom said no, she could only get one strand of her hair blue. Other than that I was informed my pack tried to riot against my mate , they all agreed on disliking her, they don't want her as their Luna, it's their right to do so. But kicking my mate out would mean I'll have to go too. That's the only reason the Riot ended, now that I'm better I'm going back to my room, our room, me and Gabriella. She haven't visited muc

Nathaniel POV. I had my finger crossed my mate and baby Omega would have a good time together, finger crossed they'll be okay, finger crossed they'll stop making my life a living hell, it's more of Gabriella's fault than Eden, she's the perfect angel. Tristan has already threatened me with another riot, he said this time he's not pulling back, this time his riot, would end up with my mate kicked off, deep inside, my wolf wanted to agree, wanted my mate to be gone, I tried to scold him saying she's our mate, we can't not want her anymore but it hurt already, just thinking about it. "Tristan," I say, even if he's mad at me, we are still good friends, we still are close to each other, he is my childhood best friend, my friend, my beta and right hand. "Yeah man?" he asks knowing I mean something real."If I break my mating, would I die?" I ask him, I knew if he reads more about those things than me, it's his job to do so. "There's a chance but if your wolf is strong enough and has su

Eden POV.This was much worse than everything I ever went through, it wasn't the physical pain, the physical pain was something I'll be used to, something I can manage but the emotional one. They kept telling me that Nathaniel doesn't want me, Gabriella brought me here under his orders, saying he got enough from me. That was what almost killed me, being hated, being rejected by him, Gabriella came back again, she said the worse news I could ever hear, the last thing I ever wanted to be, she told me the worse news in the whole world. "Nathaniel died" she says with tears in her eyes, she was serious, she came back here because of the pain, the pack kicked her out after he died. "He c..c...ca...ca...." I couldn't finish the sentence, he can't be dead, that's what I meant to say but words wouldn't leave my mouth although I tried to talk, to say it. "He did! He died cause of you!" Gabriella kept saying that over and over again, I didn't understand how it was my fault, but I believed he
