Alexandra POVDarkness fell on another day. Alec caught me off guard by knocking me out with his Alpha power, but it got rid of the pain I felt. Ellis still hadn’t come home yet. She always stopped by my room to make sure I was still being held captive.We didn’t say much to each other these days. Even after Alec’s little stunt, she didn’t have anything to say to me. Andrew, on the other hand, was livid. He was more furious because he found me out-cold I my room and he hadn’t been there to protect me. I felt bad about not being able to tell him the truth.“A wolf would help me get out of here. I’d just shift and bust out. Even a little one would help.”I examined the drop from my bedroom window. It would only get me a broken leg.A wolf would give me faster healing and agility.“Why won’t you show up?” I whispered to the unseen part of me.As expected, no response came. I felt like a hollow and abandoned shell, but I knew my wolf was in there somewhere.Something was just keeping her

Alexandra POV“Where does it hurt, cub? Let me see.” Enzo rolled me onto my back and patted me down for any injuries. I shoved his hands away.“Don’t touch me,” I winced.“I didn’t touch her,” he hissed.“You just let her sleep over.” I cried out when my abdomen jerked forward.“Shit,” I cried.“Enzo, what’s going on?” Cindi demanded.“Call Dr Zaya,” Enzo ordered. “Tell her it’s an emergency.”“You have a shit load of things to explain after this!”I wrapped my arms around my middle and curled into a ball. I panted and tried to control my breathing, but that didn’t help. The pain felt like a growing ball.“Listen to me, baby. I’m here.”“It hurts. I want it to stop. Just knock me out!”“What? I won’t do that.”“Enzo!” I screamed.He scooped me off the ground and marched into the house. He placed me on the couch. My wolf better come out today because I'm sick of this happening to me. My body threatened to split in two. Hours of trekking made my limbs sore this only added to the strain

Alexandra POV“Can you come up with a reason they sealed it? Because the only thing I have in mind is just cruelty against an innocent half-human girl.”“Doesn’t sound good enough, cub.”“Sometimes, there doesn’t have to be this huge theory, Enzo!”He chuckled, but this wasn’t a laughing matter. I’m freaking out here. I paced his bedroom, naked, while I pondered the numerous directions my life could go.“If my wolf is dangerous, you know it gives the Supreme Court more reason to kick me out?”That wiped the smile off his face.“Among other things,” He replied.“Other things, Enzo?” I questioned. “Like what?”He sat up, “Like locking you up for the protection of the wolves within the shifter region and those in the outer region, or breaking your wolf, separation from your wolf, straight out murder. The list is endless.”I squeaked, and my temperature dropped.“See, this is why I keep things from you.”“It’s good to keep my options in mind. Banishment doesn’t seem so bad now. Can I do i

Alexandra POVEnzo was in the backyard chopping wood. Watching him gave me deja vu of the time a tree fell on him. Enzo never told me what really happened that day or his suspicions. He never brought up what happened the day a tree fell on his car, either.He keeps a lot of secrets from me. They must be tied to the Supreme Alpha business. I hoped things changed when we became official.The axe fell heavily on a log, splitting it in two. He slammed the axe on the tree stump and picked up the pieces he cut. Last night, I was reminded of my deadline to shift or else I’d be kicked out of the shifter region. Enzo was assured that everything would work out.He was the Supreme Alpha but there’s only so much he can do to save me, but I would fight until I had no choice but to accept my fate.“You should be resting,” I said.He turned around and raised his brows. “I’m not sick, Alex.”“You should still take it easy!”“I slept fine. I haven’t slept that well since you left me.”I smiled. “I’d h

Alexandra POV“Get in the car, let me take you back to the Golden Paw pack,” Ellis offered.I folded my arms and stared at the temple. Going into a house about to collapse from the wind was a bad idea, but it called to me. Like a sinister whisper. “I don’t want to,” I said.“There’s nothing here, Alexandra. The Shadow Mist pack is gone.”“How convenient,” I murmured.“Everything Ellis has ever done was to keep you safe,” Andrew stated firmly.In some way, they’ve been my protectors, but they made decisions for me even after I could think for myself. “Will you tell me about your other friend?” I asked.She held my stare, jaw tight and shoulders high. She wasn’t dropping names.I created some distance between us. I needed to think. I needed the truth. I didn’t know for sure if my wolf was dangerous. “I can get home on my own,” I said.“Alexandra—”“No! Just leave me alone.”Andrew placed his hand on Ellis’s shoulder and squeezed. “Let her be. You’ve done your part.”“There’s nothing
