GALLAHAN’S POV“This must be it,” I muttered under my breath as I slinked closer towards a lone and dilapidated warehouse in an eerie and highly rural area.The ground was overgrown with weeds and tall grasses that nearly reached my knees. Layers of ivy had taken residence on its old walls, slithering all over and even reaching the flat roof.If it wasn’t for the low brilliance bleeding out from the small square windows, I could’ve been persuaded to think that the area was utterly deserted because of how quiet it was.The breeze suddenly picked up speed, blowing angrier as if it had sensed the mounting fury in my blood.This was it.Willa was inside this fucking warehouse, likely suffering in pure agony from what the bastards called humans injected her with.But, with all my might, I tempered and attempted to tame the raging beast inside of me. It would do more harm than good if I simply barged in with little to no idea about Willa’s condition.For all I knew, it might just take one m

WILLA’S POVIt was hard to keep pretending I was as good as dead when clarity trickled into me in steady waves and my strength sipped back into my bones and into every sinew of my muscles with every second that ticked by.After all, I wasn’t an actor. Sooner or later, they would catch on to the fact that the antidote was working and I was regaining my vitality at an even rate.Then there was another worry of mine: the amount of antidote my body could take before I got overdosed by it and started getting its negative effects instead.Bloody damn hell.I needed to think quickly of how I could escape my cage and flee from a group of armed men. From my rough guess of their number, the odds weren’t exactly in my favor.‘Will… Can you hear me?’ I thought desperately as I tapped into my mind link with my brother. ‘William. Please… Can you hear me? Are… Are the twins okay? Please tell me they’re both alright. Gods… Please Willian. Help me. Help me, and bring Gallahan with you. There are a lit

GALLAHAN’S POVMy heart seemed to have been permanently lodged in my throat as I watched Willa being held as a hostage; a handgun pressed harshly against her temple.“Hardly seems fair,” I gritted out. Still, I lifted my bloody hands as a show of surrender, even though I fucking knew well as hell that there was absolutely no way that Lewis would not keep his promise. But I desperately needed to buy some time to think of a way out of this unfavorable situation. “How about a fair compromise?”Lewis scoffed. “Compromise? A fucking compromised? Did you bother to compromise with the humans you tortured and killed, whose land you pillaged, looted and claimed after? No! There is no compromise for someone like you, Wick. It’s either Willa’s death or yours. Now, pick! I kill her right before your eyes, or you kill yourself and she gets to leave and return to your children.”In the back of my mind, my wolf howled in fury and agitation, but I forced myself to cling to rationality. Because lettin

WILLA’S POVThree bloody fucking weeks.Three bloody fucking weeks had passed since the dreadful incident, and Gallahan was still nowhere in sight.All of us, including Zuleika and Maliya, had seen neither hide nor hair of him since he ran away. Even his father had no idea of where he could be.It was complete silence on his end, while I was trying so fucking hard to reach him through his impenetrable mind link.‘Han… Please. If you can hear me, please… Please, come home. Come home to me. To Cal and Gil. They miss you. I miss you. Come home to us… We are waiting for you…’A series of soft and timid knocks on my bedroom door disrupted my nth attempt at reaching out to Gallahans through the mind link.I quickly straightened up and wiped my tears with the back of my hand just as the door slowly swung open.“Mommy?”Gillian poked her head inside, looking at me with uncertainty.“Come here, love,” I said as I made a beckoning gesture with my hand.She bit her lower lip as if she were havin

GALLAHAN’S POVI knew Willa had come even before I saw her.Because for the first time in more or less three weeks, my inner wolf perked up, shattering the total and absolute cold shoulder treatment I supposedly deserve after leaving my mate and pups.And no matter how hard I tried to, I couldn’t even manage a minor transformation in the last three weeks, given how broken my relationship was with my inner wolf.No amount of my cajoling and apologizing could fix it. Clearly, only Willa was the remedy for it all.But I didn’t share my inner wolf’s apparent excitementApprehension coiled in my gut, sending me seconds away from vomiting the sad little dinner of salad I lazily made for myself.I had half a mind to bolt out of the cabin and run away again like the fucking coward that I was.An angry and loud growl echoed within the walls of my mind, nearly giving me a headache.“Fucking hell…” I muttered as my hand flew to clutch my throbbing temple.Then a pitter-patter of hooves reached
