Liam POVI haven't put the essence of Moon flower back in the safe yet. I know I should, but I feel better holding it. I keep glancing out to the forest and waiting for Rose to come back. It's only been two days, but I'm desperate at this point. I head to the kitchen to get some coffee and spend time with Mary. She has been a wreck since Alpha King said all those things about her. He hasn't spoken to her since that day and hasn't eaten any of her food either. I'm starting to avoid the kitchen because every time I open the door, you can see the flash of hope in her eyes that it's him and not me. Then her eyes start to water again. Today was no different. "Hi Mary, you want to have a coffee with me. I could do with some cookies". She just nods and brings over the mugs and plates. She sits next to me and sits straight up right. It's not until I put my arm around her that she finally relaxes into me. We sit in silence for a long moment, and I can feel her shoulders start to shake as t

Conrad POVThe last two weeks went past in a blur. As soon as Liam told me there was some hope, my mind went into overdrive. I still trusted no one in the house. There was still a traitor here, so I had to work this out on my own. If they had a massive stronghold, I would need my men, but which men would I need? Could I trust any of them not to literally shoot me in the back? I would have to position them in the line of fire in front of me, so if they did turn, I could kill them first. I also couldn't tell any of them my plan in case they alerted the enemy. I needed to come up with a good excuse to get a team away from the pack.I decided the best plan was to get one of the military cots and sleep in my office. That way I could work in peace, and the door locked so no one could get in. When I'm not in my office, I'm in the gym. I have been training every spare second and put on about 10lbs of muscle. My Lycan scent and hearing have been improving over the past month, but I have be

Liam POVMy arse and back are fucking killing me at this point. We have been in the van for 40 hours straight, only stopping for petrol, bathroom, and snack breaks. The 10-minute reprieve every 4 hours is what's keeping me going at this point. We have driven at least 3500km at this point. We are at the other end of the country, and if we go any further, we are going to have to board a plane or a boat. I know we are also starting to lose hope that this is just a defective compass, as it is still only off slightly, but Alpha King is so sure. Suppose it's the only thing he has to hold on to now. The sun is starting to set on the second day, and I can see large city lights coming into view. We were approaching the largest city in the north east. Oakwood Valley. We have stuck to the plan and only driven on major freeways heading in the direction we needed. I'm currently driving my last stint for the days before I get some sleep in the back and someone else takes over. Alpha King is sit

Conrad POVI woke that morning and went straight to the TV. Nightstalker sent a text overnight about the AI video she made. The morning show is on, and the presenter is talking about a video that went viral overnight. "What would you do if you were in the right place at the right time but not ready. Two girls found themselves in this predicament when they discovered Billionaire Conrad Strongheart taking some well-earned R'N'R by going camping. In the video that went viral overnight, two girls came across his campsite but after realising they hadn't showered or brushed their hair in two days, decided to run away". They then play the AI video and show an apparent video of me shirtless in the forest. When I look directly at the camera after hearing a noise, the footage changes to the forest floor with noises of girls giggling and running away in the background. Perfect. We spend the rest of the day training. Aalto had never used a gun before, but stated he would be better as a shield

Lewana POVMy mind starts to clear the sedation they always pump me full of. The ground feels different. Hard and cold. A cold wind caresses my skin for the first time in months. Have they moved me? "I think she's starting to wake up"."What kind of drugs did they give her? She's been out for an hour". The voices feel familiar, but I'm not sure. I open my eyes and I try to focus. It's dark and there is a fire nearby. I'm no longer in the lab. And I'm not restrained. I start growling to warn whoever is near me. A figure comes running towards me and holds my shoulder supportively, trying to get me to sit up. "I've got your Luna Queen". I recognize the scent before I can make out his face. Liam. I just collapse onto him and start silently sobbing as he rubs my back. He keeps trying to reassure me. "It's OK. We got you out. We'll take you home soon". Home. He'll take me to Conrad. Wait."Is he not here? Didn't he come?". He laughed a humourless laugh. "He's sort of knocked out
