Maddox [24 hours earlier] I fucking hate flying i always have , never mind one that is half way over the world . Atlas has done nothing but fucking moan about how cold it is going to be , i mean we are wolves we run at a seriously hot temperature . As the jet landed on the private runway I noticed a few suv’s waiting , thinking nothing of it as it could be from my cousin whose runway this is . As we exited the jet a tall man with red eyes and his hair in a topknot approached us. “Alpha Maddox Rivera” He said in a Russian accent as if I should know who he is . I look around and notice at least twelve to fifteen other men all large, all with firearms on them . Noticing the frown and confusion on my face he speaks again. “Sorry , forgive my manners . I am Vladimir Sokolova , Lyras brother” He says, offering me his hand . Chaos comes forward . ‘Do not trust him’ I stare at his hand for another second before accepting it . “Nice to meet you , where is Lyra?” He just smiles sh

Lyra I have been keeping in contact with Kalesa , she has a major crush on Atlas . I swear the amount that girl giggles is unbelievable . So far they haven't hurt Maddox or the others and Demitri is still in the crypt . Kalsea is going to start slowly feeding Demitri tonight prep his body for extraction tomorrow along with the other three . The guys have been training and sorting out all the things we need to leave . Kammi left this morning to drop our latest deal with one of our regular clients , he was one of the ones i took off my Brother and father on my rebellious stage before i realised i was actually really good at it , not everyone thinks like my family . Eastern European men are the most backwards thinking in the way they think all women should be pregnant and chained to the kitchen sink . If I am honest with myself , making an example of the Kocak family for their disrespect and the fact they tried to steal my merchandise and kidnapped Kammi to hold him against me th

Lyra My rage has been like a volcano bubbling up like you wouldn’t believe , I was ready to explode . The men around me work fast and efficiently , with nothing needed to be said . I climb up the steps to my jet , the red mist of rage has not left me since the phone call with Vladimir . He wants a fucking war he has one coming , one he would never win , not in a million lifetimes . I step through the threshold to the jet and Kammi whistles at me. “Looking very sexy to go on a killing mission” He chuckles , I look down at myself . I have on black skinny jeans , combat boots and a black fitted top with my body warmer . I look back up and roll my eyes at him , he passes me my holster that I put around my waist before strapping the other strap around my right thigh . Masimo comes over with my customised black Glock19 with my name in red jewels , he had bought me them for my birthday a few years ago . They were to match the set of throwing knives I had strapped to the other leg , M

Lyra The minute my feet hit the ground we took off in the direction our car was left . Kammi has an unconscious Vladimir over his shoulder sprinting towards the vehicles that wait , Masimo jumps out the car and grabs Vlad and puts him in the back before we get in as the car starts to move before the door is even shut . The gun fire is raining down on us as we are chased through the streets before the gates come into sight . Luca starts to tap away on the tablet and the gates swing open as we speed through , clipping the wing mirror on the gate ripping it clean off . I look around the car at my men . “Ok , give me it i can feel something is off” Carlos looks at Kammi then Masimo before dragging his tattooed hand down his blood smeared face . “Demitri , the Alpha and Beta are in the other car” I look around at them . “Where is Kalsea and the Gamma?” No one speaks and no one will give me eye contact . “Fucking answer me” I say in a low threating voice . It's Carlos who answers , r

Lyra “Papa , what can I do for you?” I say back to my father . I am so tired and could do without his bullshit . “Where is Vladimir?” I smile knowing how irritated he is by the tone in his voice . My men stand around with the same smirk on their faces as I have . The only one looking confused is Beta Atlas , he keeps glancing between us . “Vladimir is where he will remain until I decide what I want to do with him” “Lyra” He growls down the phone , the warning clear in his voice . “Well if you want to play games , you left something behind and someone” I hear some movement on the other end of the line. “Lyra” My heart sinks as the voice of my best friend comes over just above a whisper . Before I can reply an almighty growl comes from Atlas . Turning my eyes wide, my eyes landed on the Beta who looked like he was ready to shift into his wolf . Carlos shoots forward at speed dragging Atlas from the room , allowing me to concentrate on the phone call . “Kalsea , are you o
