A little push on her back from Percy caused a mist to fall over them as they dissolved in the fog from her room into Lance’s.It had been his father’s room when his father was still alive. The strong Alpha of the Lycrox pack had been killed in a freak accident involving a wolf hunter shortly after Maggie and Lance were betrothed as kids. Reggie, his uncle had taken over the affairs of the pack until Lance was old enough to become Alpha. Lance had taken over his father’s room hoping that the day would come when he would have full rights to becoming Alpha.But that day would never come because his betrayal marked him as a murderer. His eyes would never turn the ruby red of Alphas, they would now remain a constant state of blue because he had innocent blood on his hands.But now as he stared into the mirror handsomely dressed in his wedding suit, Maggie felt a pull in her chest. From the clock ticking on the wall, she could tell that this was moments before Vivian barged into her room wi

Though the car was one of the fastest in the garage among the collection Ezra kept, moving almost at the speed of light, it was silent on the tarred road barely making a sound. The only sound was coming from the inside of the jeep and it was coming from the dashboard because Ginny had chosen to play some old romance music. The atmosphere created by the music was so much at odds with the atmosphere at the moment. The men wanted to go to war for the Luna of their newly merging pack, they weren’t interested in listening to Lionel Richie sing “Stuck on You” or Dionne Warwick singing “Whisper in the Dark.” If there was war music, probably an old dragon theme from a medieval movie played over men riding on horses into battle, that would have been a better fitting song at the moment.But they let her listen to her songs because she was young and foolish and romantic.Ginny didn’t care.She sat in front with Noah, knowing that if Asher wasn’t in the car with them he would have tied her up wit

“Why is she here?” Ezra demanded, his face was pale as he watched Maggie stumble upon them.Maggie watched that naïve version of herself come to the realization that it had been a trick. She watched as her trusting eyes clouded with regret and the bitter tears of betrayal a moment before Reggie grabbed her from behind and pulled her hands behind her.At first, she couldn’t even react to the pain, the only thing she could say was, “Why?”Her innocent brown eyes searched for Lance and she couldn’t hold her tears at the stony look on his face.“Lance,” she wailed.“Kill them,” came Ezekiel’s cold command.Maggie watched the scene and for the first time, she saw it unfold differently. In her memories, Lance had been so cold that he rushed at her and tore her heart out of her chest with no regrets or heed for her tears at all. But now that she watched it as an outsider, she saw how his hand shook. The ancient dagger he held in his hand wobbled as fear overcame him.“I – I – I can’t do it,”

Noah rolled away just in time as an enemy wolf leaped from the tree with protracted claws aiming for his throat. If he hadn’t defended himself fast enough he would have been a dead man with a ripped throat on the forest floor. His senses were on high alert but he could only sense one familiar wolf among the enemies and that was the one fighting him.Asher, Lance, and Jayden on the other hand were struggling with their opponents. Lance was struggling with two wolves and he was pinned between the both of them.Noah turned his attention to the wolf rebounding to attack him, he reverted back into human form as he raised his hands in an X shape and parted his legs so that he was standing firm on the ground and as soon as the wolf attacked him again he gripped its neck and hefted it over his shoulder and brought it to the ground with all his strength.The wolf, now sweaty struggled against Noah’s hold on it and a laugh escaped him.“You haven’t lost your edge, Noah.”Noah recognized that vo

Maggie shook off the vertigo of teletransportation and her eyes immediately widened. She was back in the mansion but the sight before her eyes was definitely not what she had been expecting. Ezekiel was not just gathering an army to attack her, he had sent some of them to destroy the mansion and everyone in it. The men in black had forced their way through the gate and were just getting out of the cars with guns cocked and ready to go by their sides.Maggie stood motionless at the center watching them. They hadn’t noticed her yet.A window opened upstairs and Cathy looked down and immediately saw her. She looked terrified.“Maggie, they are here for you. Run!”But the men weren’t there for only her, they were there for all of them. There were 6 of them in all. Ezekiel wasn’t waiting anymore to claim what was hers. And he was smart about it too. The sun was just cracking through the clouds and as soon as the day was clear humans would come out which meant they couldn’t fight in wolf fo
