Dean sat in his office with his hand pressed against his jaw. He had been like this for most of the morning, only getting out to go to meetings and then coming back to sit like that, thinking about what he had heard yesterday. “Do you know what I found out?” Have had asked him, and eagerly, he had smiled, pushed closer to where his best friend sat, and asked him to fill him in, unknown that it would be the shocker of his life.That question changed something in him, or maybe it was the answer that Gabe gave to him after that. The answer had been so shocking it had now landed him in this state. Through the night, he had been unable to sleep, and he had had to run in the wild for a while before he could catch his breath. It had felt for the most part as if he was choking, until the run. Most of his meetings, he had sat through them absentmindedly, not even listening at all to what was been said. What he had heard had shaken him, something he had almost not believed, but it was his bes

It was already late in the evening when Dean parked his car in front of his parent's house. He got out just as his sister parked hers as well. They had come in a different car because Cara had come to his office in hers so he wouldn’t have to go drop her at home. He waited until she was also out of the car and they started to go into the house. He needed all of the backups he could get. It wasn’t as if he wouldn’t be able to ask them if it was just him, but they were two now, so they could as well do this together. As they entered, they both walked to the living room to see their father smiling over the book he had in his hands. He must have sensed them the moment they entered into the house, or even heard them as soon as they drove into the compound. “Good evening, Dad,” Cara said as she walked to him, and his smile brightened. “Good evening. This is a lovely surprise.” He said. Dean nodded his greeting and looked around. Where's Mom?” he asked.“She’s in the kitchen. You’re in

“Do you have any idea where she is now?” Cara who had been silent for a while asked their mother, and she shook her head.She had thought that that was impossible but she didn’t want to be pessimistic or sound like one. “But why give her away when the rule surrounding her birth says that she doesn’t have to be given to the alpha as his concubine?” She asked. “That was alpha Gabe's rule, Cara, one he didn’t make until he was old enough to know what the rule meant. I was not planning for the death of the former alpha or anything so I was scared that my child would be the concubine for someone as old as that.” Their father said. Dean nodded his head, but not in agreement with what he had said. There was nothing better about doing that at all. “Oh, I see. So you mean what you did, giving your own child away, not raising her, was a much better idea than that?” he asked, with his brows raised. “Shouldn’t you have given her the chance to grow up and choose it yourself? It’s not as if she h

Alex yelped as soon as she got out of the car, her knee weak and her body all going numb. She could see the car that she knew Cara owned wrapped around itself as it lay upside down on the side of the road. There was so much blood on the floor beside it that it made her dizzy and tired from the inside. She ran from where she stood to the car to see Cara, but she was not there as she fell to the ground. She saw a sign with the blood that made her think someone had dragged her out of the car. She didn’t know when she started to cry, but her face soon felt wet. She looked up at Gabe with a frown on her face. “She's gone, Gabriel.” She said. Gabe nodded his head. “Yes, Tim was here to take her to the hospital, while Dean followed the truck driver. All I have to do here is to get rid of the car, and get to the pack hospital to see her.” “Why was she taken to the pack hospital and not the normal hospital.” She asked innocently. “We are werewolves, something only a few humans know about.

“I’ve handed him over to the police.” That was all Alex could hear Dean whisper to Tim and Gabe in the room they were all gathered. They had gone back upstairs and were now sitting in the common room. That was what they called their living room; a large living room where there were plenty of couches and love seats.That was music to her ears, the fact that the man responsible for putting Cara in the ICU had been handed over to the cops was just enough to make her sigh. She was glad, to say the least, and the only thing she had to worry about now was when Cara would make a full recovery. “That’s good. We'll talk about what happened later. Right now, the pack members that are here want to meet their Luna. The news had gone around even though we only told the doctor who she was. He must have told someone or something.” Gabe said and Dean nodded. He glanced at Alex and gave her a nod, which Alex reciprocated, then he walked to sit where Tim was seated in the corner of the room with his h
