Maverick I was at the back of the rental house sitting on the tailgate of my truck as I sipped an ice-cold beer. Our plans had failed miserably here in the US so far, so I was drinking a six-pack to dull the pain of everything going down the drain. I was frustrated and trying to figure out how we were going to get out of this mess. The first order of business I had was killing Cote because he was a liability. I didn’t need him talking to anyone in his pack about where we were and what we were doing. Sure, he didn’t know our plans, but he knew where we were and what we looked like. He could point us out in a crowd and get a slap on the wrist for helping us. Fuck that. If we were going down, that bastard would too. I hope that little fucker knew what he was in for when we snuck onto Juniper Moon territory tomorrow night. I was going to slit his throat while he slept in his bed thinking he was safe. I held great joy thinking of him laying there looking up at me while gaspi

Ivy It’s been two weeks since this whole fiasco started and Jacob killed Maverick. We got the cattle and horses back a day later. When the guard unit found the property, Torin helped section off what animals went where and coordinated pick-up with each pack and human-run ranch. Everyone got everything back thanks to Torin’s help. He was working hard to earn his spot back with David, but he hadn't earned that Gamma spot back yet. He was working hard to fix things between us and I was paying attention to it. As they searched the property where the cattle had been stowed, Jacob and Medicine Rock confiscated things that were left behind. They found the body of Oliver stashed in the barn. We deduced that Maverick had killed him after having sex with him, but we had no idea why. Honestly, we didn’t need that answer. All we needed was to get the issue handled and it was. I spent the first week at my parents’ house after I found out about Torin’s involvement in the thefts. I d

Jasper Our weekend in Estes Park went by quickly, so we found some quick temporary work for the week in the area before moving on to the next rodeo. It was important to stay busy while making a little money. We arrived in Colorado Springs this morning for the Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo. Corbin signed up for the bronc event and I signed up for the bull riding event again. We were handed our numbers and pulled slips of paper to find out the names of our rides. We left the sign-up office and Corbin looked at the slip of paper in his hand. He started laughing and I looked at him like he was nuts. “My bronc's name is Spicy Lance,” Corbin told me. I started laughing along with him. Who the hell named that horse? “It sounds like something someone would name their dick,” he said as he kept laughing. I laughed even harder before I asked, “How do you think it’s going to sound on the loudspeaker? Corbin Martinez riding on Spicy Lance.” “Oh fuck! I’m gonna sound gay!”

Briar I was in the dining room of the packhouse eating my breakfast on my own as I scrolled through the news on my phone. I could have made myself breakfast at home but I didn’t feel like it this morning. Besides, now I was right next to my office so I could get to work early. There was nothing in the news that held much importance to me; the ranch or the pack. Nothing big has happened recently since we handled the cattle thieves. Our area was calming down and going quiet once more. That’s the way I liked it; nice and quiet. I finished my meal of eggs, bacon, and a large muffin before I got up from my seat to head to my workspace. I walked through the doorway to the office while looking down at my phone. Suddenly, there was a loud pop in my right ear and confetti swarmed me. I jumped in shock and dropped my phone on the ground before looking up at who was fucking with me. “Happy Birthday!” Lacy, my older cousin, and Gamma yelled happily at me. I sighed in frustra
