Connor took me to the house that was at the top of the village and was definitely the biggest and when I walked inside I was really surprised at what I saw. This place was relatively new and it was really nice inside. Apparently his whole pack had built this place themselves, in secret. Which is why there are so many more people here than I thought were in his pack. I think there were a lot more in his pack that he had spread out. Possibly building this place, or possibly somewhere else so no one knows exactly how big his army really is. They had built Connor a two story place, but it wasn't massive like Father's packhouse. It wasn't a mansion or anything. It was more homely than anything. Connor took me upstairs and he showed me my bedroom which was right across the hall from his bedroom. I was glad that he wasn't trying to push anything on me still. And he had an ensuite in his room but there was another bathroom next to my room. But I was alright with that. Connor went to go

I stood there looking at the shadow ghostly figure that was standing across my kitchen, trying to make sense of what I was looking at. “What are you?” I asked. “I was sent here by the black witch. She says that you can’t hide.” He said. “Then why isn’t she here to tell me that?” I asked. “Because you’re surrounded by werewolves.” He said. “Bullshit. That didn’t stop her last time. She doesn’t know where I am.” I said. “She will find you. She will always find you. As long as you have the power, she will find that power.” He said. “That’s how she sent you here. She’s picking up on my power and using that against me. But she doesn’t actually know where I am.” I said, more to myself than to the creature. “Shut up. She will always find you.” “Are you speaking for this ghost, black witch?” I asked. “Of course I am.” He said. “Well, good luck. You couldn’t grab me last time. You barely even hurt me.” “That was before I knew what you could do. I will be better prepared

I hung up the phone and I looked at Connor who was standing in the living room looking at me really confused while holding his bag. “Who’s Nathan?” He asked again. “He’s the son of one of my dad’s Alpha friends.” I said. “And doesn’t he think that you’re dead?” Connor asked. “No. Nathan and his father know that I’m alive. Because my dad tried to arrange a marriage between me and Nathan.” I said. “You were engaged to him?” Connor asked, his eyes flickering from black and then back to their normal blue. “I guess you can call it that. I wouldn’t even say that. It was an agreement that our father’s made. Nathan wanted to because it was easier than finding a mate and he’s just as sadistic as everyone else. I didn’t want anything to do with it. I swear. Nathan was just looking for his own personal punching bag.” I said. And Connor looked at me curiously. “Did Nathan ever actually hit you?” He asked. “Yeah. He did. The first time we met. Dad left us in the attic to get to kno

I was really interested to know what that pack had against me. I mean, we were far enough away from each other so that they weren’t going to get pulled into any of our problems. And they could turn a blind eye if they wanted to. We weren’t asking for their help and Connor would never do that anyway. He was the Alpha of the Protectors. He would be the last person to ask for help. After breakfast Connor left the house to go and see Alpha Joshua while I cleaned the kitchen and I was really curious about what was going on. I could see Connor disappear into the woods behind our house but that was as far as I could see. The border was a lot further through the woods, and Alpha Joshua wasn’t coming near the border. So, Connor would have to walk out there a fair way before he found him. I was getting really nervous in the house, waiting for Connor to come back, so I went to the training field that was behind our house and that no one was allowed to go near. Connor told everyone that i

CONNOR POV As soon as the light died down I came to my senses and I looked up at my demolished house and the smoke was still clearing. I wiped the rain out of my face to try and see properly and I was sure that Aurora was dead. How could anyone survive that? But then I saw a figure appear from the dust, she was slowly walking across the rubble, finding her way out of the house and she stopped at the front of the house to look at me. “Connor.” She whimpered out. I ran straight to her and she collapsed in my arms and I sat down on the ground with her head resting on me. Leo had medical experience so he ran over and started checking her over. She didn’t have a scratch on her, she didn’t seem to be injured in any way. So what the hell is going on. “All of her vitals are really strong.” Leo said. “Then why did she collapse?” I asked. “More importantly, how the hell is she still alive?” Thomas asked. I looked around at the pack and my house was the only one that was hit by
