They didn’t approve. It wasn’t that hard to see. The woman was clearly disappointed in Sin, and she wasn’t trying to hide it. It made Sin feel sad although she didn’t show it. I squeezed her hand tighter as we followed the woman across the yard to the medical building. We had already filled in the forms so our mating could be added to their records and Sin’s name be removed from the Omega Center’s resident list. Now Sin needed to get her check-up, and then we could go back home, something that Sin was eager to do. She didn’t specify her reason for wanting to stay at home, but it wasn’t hard to guess. Jackson was still out there. But she wasn’t the only one who was worried about him. My worry had increased when I checked my phone this morning to find over fifty missed calls from Draven over the past week. Jackson and my brother were good friends, and it wouldn’t surprise me if Draven was helping Jackson with whatever he was planning. Truth was, I wasn’t worried about my b

The rumble of Bella’s truck made me clench my jaw. I thought that I had made it clear that bringing an omega to the ranch again was a big fucking mistake, but they didn’t listen. Throwing the tools down on the table, I grabbed the clothe to wipe my hands and then made my way towards the door. I leaned against the doorway as I watched Bella park her truck under the tree. They didn’t immediately get out of the truck, and I hoped that it was a sign that Bella had changed her mind. But Bella’s door finally opened, and a second later so did the other door. The air locked in my throat when the omega climbed from the truck. She was nothing like I imagined her. Smaller. Thinner. Her eyes darted around and then locked on Michel who was standing on the porch. Muttering a curse, I stormed towards them. If I wasn’t there for the introductions, Bella would never let me live it down. Daisy barked as she ran around the side of the house, straight at the new-comer. Kate hated animals, and it

It was halfway across town at the old motel where Draven first found Sin. I ran a hand down my face and looked at the bed where Tyrone was fast asleep. The doctor had sedate him an hour ago after he tried to leave. I understood his eagerness to go search for Sin, but he didn’t understand how important it was for him to stay at the hospital where they could keep an eye on his wounds. He needed to be in the best shape when we find her because Sin was going to need him. Midnight. It was five hours away. I stood and walked over to the window. My eyes darted over the dark clouds in the sky and then down to the people below, running for cover as the first drops started to fall. “I got some coffee.”Turning, I watched Bella as she placed the cups down on the small coffee tabel. Midnight. Walking over to her, I waited for her to straighten and then gripped the back of her neck to pull her lips to mine. I kissed her like I hadn’t kissed her in months. I kissed her as if it was the last

I could remember one time when I knocked on death's door. It was that day when the dogs attacked me. The doctors told mother that I was lucky to be alive because I had lost a lot of blood. I had wished to die that day because I hated my life. But things were different the second time I knocked on death's door. Michel had been by my side, begging me not to leave them, apologizing for not being on time to protect me. I had been shot that night. Not on purpose, but by a stray bullet that hit me while I was running. Draven had taken me to the motel where he found me to return me to my pack, but things had gone wrong when Jackson and his men showed up. He hit me and then told me to run if something happened to him. Jackson had pulled his gun first, demanding that Draven tell him where I was, but he had refused. Maybe Tyrone was right, maybe it wasn’t my fault. I hadn’t asked Draven for help, he had decided to help me on his own free will and it had unfortunately ended up getting him

We almost lost her. It might have been just a gaze, but she was close to death. Sin lost so much blood…I should have checked her over for injuries when I found her on the road. I should have fucking stopped the bleeding. I should have gotten to her sooner. Sin stirred, turning onto her back and kicking one part of the blanket off. My eyes trailed over her, lingering on the bandage that covered her upper arm. Just a graze…but it could have been fatal. Just a stray bullet that grazed her arm but could have hit her in the head or stomach or heart. She was so close to death and it was because I didn’t get to her in time. Leaning forward, I rubbed a hand down my face and stood. I froze in my tracks when Sin whimpered. My eyes snapped over to the bed as I spun around and hurried over to the bed. Taking the seat on the edge of the bed, I leaned closer and pressed a hand to her forehead. Another whimper fell from her lips as her body jerked. “Sin.” I slipped my hand down to pres
