Reuben POVWe received a tip off of in the early hours of the morning of the possible whereabouts of Libby. Knowing the tip off was as good as a pinned location with a live feed thanks to his unhanded monitoring of her for the past 6 months, I knew I had to move. Now knowing others were trying to find her from the wanted posted plastered all over the dark internet, I had to move quickly. She had gotten far, she was in the most rural part of the country which was smart. She had clearly planned to keep away from technology, knowing facial recognition would pick her up and reveal her most recent location. She was smarter than I gave her credit for.This could go possibly of 2 ways, she decides to rejoin my family or she runs again. She doesn’t even know about Father…I’ve never once had to explain myself to anyone…only when Evelyn came back into my life with my two children did I question my actions of my past. I had no emotions after father’s death, I was just glad the bastard was gone

Pierce POVI had lost the pick-up truck some time ago and had resorted to shifting into my wolf form. My wolf refused to let me take command on this, it was simple…he wanted to track our mate in his wolf form and I had to let him handle this for once. Such an animalistic urge could only be handled by the animal. The only problem with this, I had no way of carrying my clothes with me. I could only take my phone via my wolf’s mouth.Tracking a high-speed travelling vehicle is never the easiest but at least being an open back pick-up truck, her scent lingers slightly in the air. Only a little mind, if she wasn’t our mate I wouldn’t have a chance of finding a scent. It had now become that faint, her vanilla scent having remained diluted down still even since finding her again. Her fading scent takes me to a roadside diner, before it picks up slightly around the back of the building. I notice cameras covering the carpark and backtrack towards a shaded area by trees when I shift again,

Libby POVThe smell of dinner perfumed the hallways of the Carmore-Bright family home and when I walked in to the dining room to find a feast on the table, I hadn’t known this level of excitement about food in such a long time. To Ben, Beth and myself, this was the equivalent of a banquet, food to last for days. Even now my mind naturally thinks of ways to reheat this food, to make it last longer for the days to come on the farm…old habits I suppose. We hadn’t ever shared a meal across a dinning table before unless you count the occasional meals at the farmer’s house at their kitchen table, which was always a squeeze. Nothing as affluent as this. Although Ben isn’t talking to me, his eyes keep looking at me from across the dinner table, anxious in accepting this wholesome meal in a grand family setting. Our surroundings had changed from rags to riches in a matter of hours and I couldn’t blame him for questioning which he preferred. At least at our simple camp fire meals there was

Libby POV“Mate? So, you go from human to werewolf to already having a mate, in one day..” Ben laughs out slightly hysteric. “What’s the joke?” Anwir enters with a large grin on his face yet a sultry look in his eyes. “You!” I point at him before moving away from Pierce and walking up to Anwir, my finger now pointing him in the chest. He is completely unfazed by my anger directed at him, he even looks down at my finger with a pout forming on his face.“Me..”“You…you lied to me. All this time…you knew who I was?” My voice raises at him. “Yes.” He shrugs playfully yet I can’t see the funny side like him. This wasn’t a joke, this was my safety…my life. “I was targeted to keep you safe..” He continues. “Correction, you were assigned to find her…not keep her away for so long.” Reuben cuts in as he picks Elspeth up in his arms, Rex now standing by his side.“Children why don’t you go put a film on..” Evelyn tries to remove them away from of our imploding situation.“But I want to be w

Libby POVThe house starts to stir and so I use the excuse of needing a morning shower to retreat back upstairs. I had gone from a caravan all to myself, to a house full of people in the space of a few days…I still needed time to adjust. Also, now that I am here…back in this world, what is my next step? What do I do now…I took longer than I should in the shower, it was nice not to have to worry about the water turning cold and choosing between washing my hair or shaving my legs…today I got to do both, in the same shower. As I leave the en-suite and enter back into my guest room, a squeal escapes me when I find a sweaty Pierce sitting on the edge of my bed. “Pierce.” I gasps out, tightening the towel around my chest, very conscious of my nakedness underneath. “Are you avoiding me?” His eyes travel the length of me, and I blush knowing what he was thinking…all that was covering me was a towel. A towel he could quite easily tear off me. “I’m just taking my time…trying not to get ov
