Skye's POV"Where's Nathan?" I walked up to Keira, and asked when I saw that she was coming out of their classroom alone."He told me he got some emergency, that he needed to go first. Honestly I don't know what's going on with him." She ran a hand over her face.Thinking that he might still be inside campus, I asked Keira if she wanted to go look around for Nathan, but based on her expression it looks like I'll be looking for that guy on my own."I can't. Ever since the accident my parents has been really overprotective of me." She said dropping her head."It's okay, you go first. I'll just check if he's in the school ground or gym." I told her and she nodded her head at me."You sure?" She asked."Don't worry about me, go home." "Okay, but don't be back late." I smiled at Keira as I watched her leave. The hallways were almost empty since I waited for Keira's class to be over, and now it's a bit late.I walked silently in the hallway to the school quadrangle, and my heels would caus

Skye's POV"I heard what happened last night. I thought everything was okay between you two?" Keira asked me while we walked into the streets to this shop she was telling me that sells good coffee.School was suspended for the day for unknown reasons. But it's not like we were complaining about it. Instead of going home, we decided to go around town. And come to think of it, this might actually be my first time strolling around.I usually just go to school then back to the pack house again, except of course the party thing that I attended, but aside from that, my days have been pretty much dull and have the same routine every single day.I've always felt that I've troubled them too much, not to mention it's Alec's mother who's been paying for everything for me. So I try to stay away from trouble as much as possible.I wonder where she is now. I've never seen her again after the first day I got here. "Hey Skye! There you go again, you're not listening to me." I snapped out of my thou

Alec's POV"I heard there's another rogue attack on the far east side from here." Carter muttered.We were on our way to the pack ground since we just got back from Alpha Erik's pack, negotiating a proposal that would benefit us and our allies."They've been unhinged lately. I'm sure a powerful figure is behind them for the rogues to be this courageous," I said, accelerating the car."Or they could be just a bunch of crazy bastards," Carter replied nonchalantly, his attention on his phone.Crossing the border, a strange tension filled the air, making us both shift uncomfortably in our seats. "Rogues." We spoke almost at the same time. "What is happening?" I asked the warriors through the mind link."Sir, there's an attack, but...""But what?!" I impatiently cut off the warrior who seemed hesitant to continue."It's Miss. Skye, sir. She's... taking care of them."My hands gripped the steering wheel harder. What did he mean, Skye was handling the rogues?"How many rogues. And tell me y

Skye's POV"Hey, there you are," Keira exclaimed, enveloping me in a bone-crushing hug.After days of grieving, I had finally started to feel better. It was Alec's visit that made me realize how messed up I'd become during those dark days. When he admitted he was still unsure about me, I was hurt, but I couldn't deny that I had expected that response from him. After all, I knew he still couldn't feel the bond, since the black mark on my chest seems to have intensified.I couldn't help but wonder about the twists of fate. If I hadn't sought Alec through Soul Wandering, if our paths had never crossed, would the gods have granted me a different mate? Another person I could've learned to love, or would I have waited years for nothing?"Let's eat. I'm sure you're famished," Keira urged, leading me to the dining room where numerous pack members were enjoying their meal. As we entered, heads turned, and hushed conversations rippled through the room. I couldn't shake the feeling of being und

Skye's POVI didn't utter anything, even after Alec and his father finished their argument.I stood still as I watched them raising their voice at each other, and Alec trying to protect me. Saying that he will not let his father kick me out of their territory.The more words I heard come out of his mouth, the stuffier my heart felt.I knew that he was going to give it some thought, about us, about me being his mate. But I didn't thought that he was actually serious to the point that he would go against his father's orders.There was something in him that I saw at this moment that made me feel secured, like I didn't have to fear being rejected by him. It was as if, I can hear him say to his father that I was his mate, that he was fighting for the both of us."You do not have any say in this Alec! You made a mistake and you will own it and be a father to that child!""I will! But she's staying father, whether you like it or not." Alec spat loudly at his father, turned around and walked
