Lottie POV It was like time slowed, and everything happened in slow motion. I had no words to describe the wide range of emotions tearing me apart. I could feel the devastating fury rippling through Knox and knew before he turned to look at me that he was not entirely in control. Havoc was beneath the surface. And people were panicking. Growing up in the pack house with Lilly, I had seen Rolo, Kane's wolf, so many times I could recall every detail about him: the colour of his fur, the way it shimmered when the light touched it, the sound of his howl as his paws padded on the floor when he chased Lilly and I. Havoc, though: I had only seen a handful of times and never close up. I remember questioning Lilly as children and her telling me that Knox's wolf was naughty and not allowed out to play. Memories flashed through my mind, and I vaguely remember once overhearing Alpha and my father discussing how Havoc had ripped a rogue apart like a chew toy. I had, like everyone, heard the r

Kane POV Looking through Rolo's golden eyes, desperate to see Lottie being swept off to safety by my mother, I felt panic rip me apart as my eyes instead settled on my father as he hurtled back to the floor, shock and fury twisting his features. My heart plummeted, catching him and the unknown male fighting; whoever it was, I had never seen him before, so he had to be one of the visiting pack members. Thanks to Havoc's explosion, any number of them could have seized the opportunity to attack my father and try to grasp what was his. I relaxed as Havoc finally moved, giving me a better view of my father. Pride swelled in my chest at seeing him advance with strength and unrivalled force that I hadn't seen him use in years. I could see that whoever my father was fighting was losing against his speed and kick-ass moves. Calming, I allowed them to continue, confident that although they were tearing chunks out of each other, my father would come out the victor. The snarls and growls fill

Lottie POV "Perhaps not the right choice of words!" Sage whimpered as an almighty howl left Havoc's lips, one that had the chandeliers shaking and the windows vibrating. This sucked! The thought of even contemplating rejecting either of my mates made my heart ache, a real tangible pain that felt like my heart was tearing apart."Why? Because it hurts?" I snapped at my wolf, hating how much she craved Havoc's affection."Because we love them!" She whispered, "We were created for them, to fit them perfectly, to compliment their..""What... Carnage? Can you not see the fucking bloodbath our mate has caused Sage!" I hissed at my wolf while keeping my eyes locked on Havoc, my fingers pressing firmly against Kane's side, willing him to heal! For Rolo to do his thing and save my damn mate before I personally killed this big fucker!"He didn't mean to!" Sage tried to defend him, but even I heard how weak her tone was. I should have just let it go; she was hurting too, but I couldn't! "HE ha

Lottie POV"You don't remember?" Luna asked, her voice cracking from the weight of her heartbreak. I couldn't imagine what she was going through right now! The fear I had felt at the idea of losing Kane would forever be imprinted on my soul! Swallowing the lump in my throat, I looked at her and shook my head in warning. "We need to be careful how we tell him!" I warned her through the link I had created for Kane, his mother and I. I watched her eyes dart past Knox to me before she pulled her hands out of Knox's hold. Clearly, it wasn't just looking at him that she found challenging; his touch seemed to cause her discomfort physically. She blamed her son for her mate's death; that much was clear to Kane and me. "Ma." Kane called from the floor, but she shook her head and stepped away, turning her back on Knox, his eyes luckily still locked on his mother; I could sense his heart breaking in his chest and knew Kane would be feeling that too. I felt Kane tense beside me, pain washing t

Lottie POV"Shit!" I hissed, remembering that no one but Knox, Kane and I had their wolves. I had heard Kane say it earlier, but in the madness, I had forgotten! "So, how did he kill Alpha Leigh instead?" I asked, needing more than this before I approached the boys."He doesn't know. Havoc doesn't remember killing his father.. he knows he must have, but he was so angry at times he said he was just seeing red mist." "The red eyes!" I nodded to Sage, who grunted in agreement. "Does Knox know?" I asked, but I already knew the answer because there was no way Knox could fake the heartbreak I saw engraved into his face as he and Kane mourned their father."No.. Havoc just wanted to take on the debt so that Mike didn't get the payment and get.."Me!"Yeah, I get it!" I snapped, hating that a life had been snuffed out because of me. My mate's father and my Alpha's life! The man who raised me, who taught me about shifting, and how to ride a damn bike, was dead because I was some damned prize
