Gavin’s POVThe memory of Gavin’s childhood had always been foggy for him. But he knew that the Slayer organization had been after Gavin’s family for a long time. He didn’t grow up with a lot of money; he had to work for everything that he got. But his family had something that the Slayers always wanted, power. They were incredibly powerful beings not only because of his Alpha father but because Gavin’s parents had incredibly strong abilities. Gavin’s memory stemmed back from when he awoke in the middle of the night; he was only a small boy, but he remembered hearing the murmurs coming from his parent’s room. His mother sounded worried, and his father was trying to reassure her. Gavin slipped out of bed and made his way out of his room and to his parent’s room. He didn’t make himself known to them; instead, he pressed his ear against the door to listen to their conversation. “We can’t get ourselves involved with them. We have

 Erin’s POVI stared at Henry with disbelief for a long while; he was being serious. “I don’t understand,” I finally said, narrowing my eyes at him. “This wasn’t even my idea, it was Theo’s. We don’t have a choice.” “We always have a choice, Erin. I don’t think it’s a good idea,” he said, shaking his head. “I’m putting my foot down and pulling you out of this.” “What has gotten into you, Henry?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. “Where have you been?” “It doesn’t matter. But as your partner, I think this is a terrible idea. I don’t trust Gavin and I think he’s leading you right to the Killers and the Slayers. He’s doing it on purpose.”“You don’t know what you are talking about,” I said in return. “Gavin would never betray me.”“His entire family is being blackmailed and I have reason to believe that it’s connected to the Slayers. They aren’t going to rest until you are killed. They won’t leave their family alone until yo

 Erin’s POV“Miss Erin! Are you okay?” Anna asked, knocking on the outside door. I was feeling fine, and this came out of nowhere. Oh goddess, don’t tell me I’m getting sick right before the Alpha Convention. This couldn’t possibly be happening to me right now. I held onto my stomach as I vomited again into the toilet; I couldn’t answer her right now. I stared at my gorgeous gown that hung on the back of the bathroom door and I felt a sense of dread. If I got sick in that dress, I could kiss this convention goodbye. Gavin would be so upset with me. This convention meant everything to him, and I couldn’t let him down right now. Not like this. “Miss Erin?” Anna asked again with another knock. “What’s going on?” I flushed the toilet and grabbed a towel off the counter; I wiped my mouth just before pulling myself to my feet and opening the door. Anna stared at me for a short while, exam

 Erin’s POVMy heart was pounding violently against my chest as I stared around at all the people clapping and cheering.  I had no idea where that speech had come from, only that it felt right to say. Talking about Gavin and me having children one day brought warmth to my body and pleased my wolf. I placed my hands on my stomach and frowned; what was this incredible feeling I was having? Gavin was looking in the distance and I could see the worry on his face, even when nobody else could. I knew exactly who he was looking for it; his blackmailer was still there, and she was taunting him. I felt furious that I couldn’t be more helpful to him at that moment; she was ruining a moment that was supposed to be incredible. This convention was a huge deal to Gavin, and it was being destroyed by this woman. I turned away and grabbed my phone; there had been no messages or calls from Henry, but I saw that Theo tried to reach me a few times t

 Erin’s POVI was staring at my best friend Jessie in the face, and I couldn’t believe my eyes. They must have been playing tricks on me. I was overly exhausted, and I wasn’t fully feeling well; maybe this sickness was making me delusional. But the look on Gavin’s face said otherwise. I could tell he was just as shocked as I was. Jessie was alive and she was standing right in front of us with an evil glimmer in her icy eyes. She gave me a smile that sent a chill down my spine. “How… how are you here…?” I asked in a hoarse whisper. “I didn’t die,” she said, narrowing her eyes at me. “I lied. I only pretended that I was dead…” “You’re the leader of the Slayer organization?” Gavin asked, staring at her in disbelief. I was at a loss for words; my entire body felt numb, and my brain was hollow. I couldn’t think straight, and I wasn’t even sure if I was standing on my feet. “I am,” she confirmed, looking between th
