Drake’s heart was breaking for Talia. It was her first time seeing something like that, and not just seeing but being in the middle of it. He knew that Talia was drowning in guilt that will plague her for years to come.He was there about a decade ago when people died around him, for him, and there was nothing he could do about it. People told him it was not his fault, and it was their duty, and that didn’t lessen the burden he felt. Actually, it made it worse because he thought of himself as a weak link that was causing everyone near him to die. Those were dark times in Drake’s life, and he didn’t have time to mourn one death before the next one came, and he wondered if people would be better off without him.But then he had Caden and Stephanie, and they convinced him that pack without him will suffer, and the only way to prevent unnecessary carnage was for Drake to get stronger. And he did.Over the years, he trained in much more than fighting. Drake hardened his heart and steeled h

Drake looked at Talia and asked through their mind-link, ’What do you want to do with the rogue? What if he killed our people? Do you want me to handle him?’Talia was not sure what was the right thing to do. She was aware that her emotions were unstable. So many things happened, and until Varya jumped on Grady, Talia actually wanted to kill him. What was wrong with her? Did the darkness creep into her heart again, or was it the harsh reality?Whichever it was, Talia knew that if she made a rash decision, she would regret it.’Let’s think about this,’ Talia said. ’We can’t kill him without evidence, not with Varya being his mate. If he is not one of the bad guys, he will help us out.’’What if he backstabs us?’’Then, we will kill him.’Drake cocked an eyebrow at Talia. He sensed that her hostility was fizzling down, and he was not sure if that was a good thing or not.Adrenaline helped Talia move after what happened to Lulu, but now that Talia was calming down, Drake was watching her

Grady and Varya were sitting on the elevated edge that was separating the driveway from the lawn. They held hands and stared at each other.Varya had so many questions, but she didn’t feel like asking because Caden was right there, behind them.Grady’s eyes were darting all over Varya’s petite face, lingering on her inviting lips he wanted to claim, but he held back. Not because of Caden, but because of Varya.From everyone’s attitude, Grady understood that people were looking down on him. He grew up with his mother, away from this world of werewolves, and when he bumped into Tristan and his group, no one told him that being a rogue was a bad thing.They said they were free spirits, able to make their decisions and live on their own terms, and Grady thought how that sounded nice. As a bonus, for the first time in his life, he didn’t need to hide when shifting into his wolf form, and there were many others just like him.For the first time, he felt like he belonged somewhere.But even

James returned to sit next to Cornelia on the sofa, and he absentmindedly poked a piece of sausage with a fork.His hand froze mid-air when Cornelia asked, "Someone from your pack died?"James released a long breath. He really didn’t want to talk about it, but Cornelia overheard what Maddox said. He couldn’t pretend like it was nothing. "My sister. She died last night."Cornelia’s eyes widened in slow motion when she understood that Maddox was talking about Marcy. Cornelia saw Marcy in the Dark Howlers pack. At that time, Marcy made a statement to a reporter in front of a camera about how she was giving up on the role of Drake’s Luna so that she can travel the world.Cornelia was confident that she will never hear about Marcy again, and it didn’t cross her mind that Marcy will be here. Dead now."I went there last night," James spoke in a low voice. "I was hoping that she will be in the shelter, or maybe that she left this pack. But I found her in the forest, being beaten to death by

"Did we ever confirm who is Lisa's mate?" Caden's question broke the silence.Maya shook her head. "I will ask Steph.""Be careful what you say," Drake warned Maya as his insides churned at the possibility of… "We don't know if Steph is the one who leaked information.""You don't think that she would…"Drake raised his hand, interrupting Maya. "I don't think anything. But this sounds like Lisa, and she got the information somehow. Only a few people in the pack knew that Talia came with me, so the list of suspects who would put my Luna in danger is not long. And about the potion..." Drake jabbed his hand into his hair. He heard there was a breach in one of their labs, but nothing was missing, so they assumed it was warriors pranking each other. But now it seems rogues stole the formula.At this point, Drake was fairly certain that Lisa got information from Stephanie. No one else was in contact with Lisa, how much he knew. Stephanie was either part of this, or she disclosed sensitive in
