Chapter: Chapter 2 - Vows Daisy - My darling brother was never one to covet what others had, but because he didn’t want to burden his best friend with 2 packs to run, not when he had only just found his mate after almost 8 years of longing for her. So, with him taking on the role of Alpha to a pack under such turmoil, I am now the unofficial Beta of Twin Lakes as, without Dave as Alpha and me as Beta the pack would be completely leaderless. Ace very quickly went underground, he like, literally vanished, he is in hiding, the bloody coward ran as soon as he felt the shift in power, according to some of the pack members. He escaped with Maddie who was the Delta's daughter and her father. From what we have learned, it seems her father began orchestrating her rise through the ranks a long time ago, he poisoned the Luna to be barren, he encouraged Maddie to be with Ace, as he would have been Alpha since the current Alpha was and would always be childless, and he helped to kill the Luna to weaken Alpha Sven and Go

I mean Dave and are actual siblings but well, yeah, you get what I mean. Anyway, it only feels like it was a few weeks ago that I was on night patrol with Jason. I was moaning about something or another that Dave had done, I can't remember what h

Chapter: Chapter 76 - To be Continued…..Authors POV - Cassie and Jack talk over the concerns they have regarding Brian and Mark heading out on this mission now that they know what Mark is thinking, but with the leak being out it would be odd for Brian and Mark to not go on this so-called trip they had planned. They decide to send Dave a message and see if he is still awake so they can go over options together and within minutes of sending the message to Dave the phone in Jack’s office lets out a resounding ring. Cassie jumps at the sudden sound after the silence that had fallen between them while they waited.Jack reaches around Cassie, who is still perched on his knee, and picks up the phone, placing it on the desk and opting for the speaker option so the three could talk more comfortably.“What are you 2 love birds still doing up at this hour? And what could you possibly need me for? It hasn’t gone stale over there already has it?” They can hear the humour in Dave’s words but instead of joining the banter playfully Cass

Chapter: Chapter 75 - Gammas and DeltasCassie -We talk a little more about what we think Jason should do to get Tara’s attention and to hold it when suddenly Jason perks up, “I’ve got it,” he says “I can do that, I need to talk to Jack, do you know where he is?”“He’s in his office, want me to come with you?”“Nah, I know exactly what to do, I’m going to move into the room next to hers, she won’t be able to avoid me then, and you know she has been since the moment she smelt me in your office, even when she didn’t know it was me, it’s not person to me, it’s personal to her mate and I’m going to show her that she can count on me.”I worry for a moment that this might backfire, but Jason seems so convinced it will work that I dare not argue with him, at least he is showing signs of life again and I can be on hand as a confidant whenever he needs one.“Ok,”

Chapter: Chapter 74 - She doesn't want meJason -When someone knocked on my door I had this swelling sensation in my chest, I was so hopeful that it was Tara, that she had finally come to talk to me about whatever had her holding herself back from our bond. It has been an agonising 24 hours since we discovered our bond and so far I had spent a grand total of about 30 minutes with her. Was I a disappointment? Had I failed her in some way already? I had spent the last 23 and a half hours trying to distract myself, telling myself she will come around, she will come to me, we will be together. I haven’t slept, I haven’t been able to eat, I can barely bring myself to move from the sofa I managed to stumble to after she fled from my presence last night.Seeing Cassie standing behind my door was heartbreaking, I had managed to convince myself it was Tara. I love Cassie, we share that special bond t

Chapter: Chapter 80 - EndingsDave POV - A cheer suddenly erupts from the crowd, clearly they are of the same opinion as us. As the crowd quieted once more the doors at the back of the hall burst open and Brian and Mark came striding in, followed by about 20 she-wolves that I didn’t recognise. They filed in but didn’t speak. I took this to mean they simply wanted to be here. Joe had arranged for three guards to be waiting by the prisoners so they could be brought out one by one. I turned to him now and nodded, he left and helped them bring in all three prisoners. Jack and Nick stepped up at that point, Nick took ahold of Ace and Jack took ahold of Maddie’s father. Joe stood with Maddie.“Please bring Ace forwards, Maddie will go last.” I say clearly and watch as her eyes scan the people in the room, widening as she realises the seriousness of the situation.Nick steps forward, forcing Ace to walk with him and they stand in the middle of the stage. “Ace, your crimes are as follows; Torture of pack members under

Chapter: Chapter 79 - Moment of truth.Author POV - The group of 5 made their way through the pack house and out into the darkening afternoon. A storm was brewing on the horizon and the wind was picking up, tossing leaves and debris from the construction sites about them. Nobody else was outside at this time, everyone settling down in the dining hall or attending to their duties. Steve, the head guard, leading the way with Daisy and Joe flanking their prisoner and Dave, defeated, following behind. Maddie, though captured and for all intents and purposes defeated, held her head high, spitting venomous words to Dave over her shoulder, sneering at him, hissing in a low voice that carried over the wind about his worthlessness, comparing him to Ace and finding him lacking. Daisy drops Maddie’s arm and quickly moves the scarf that Maddie was wearing as a fashion accessory up to cover her mouth, tightening it until only muffled grunts could be heard, she then returns to Maddie’s side and grins at the glare Maddie is sending her

Chapter: Chapter 78 - Revelations.Dave POV - I run through options in my mind, my link with Daisy open so she can hear what I am thinking. I could offer her the chance to leave and live, I could banish her, I could lock her up, but none of it seemed right, none of it felt right. How could I do that to the mother of my child? What would I tell my pup about their own mother? Would she even agree to leave the child behind?Of course she would, she is selfish, a pup would only slow her down, but, I know you don’t want to hear this, but, I don’t think we could trust her if we let her go, she would always be a risk to us, even without Ace around. She’s right, I know she is, but I can’t do it, I won’t. Not if she really is carrying my pup.I can barely breathe right now, the worry, pain, deceit clawing it’s way up my throat. But Daisy’s right, first we need to see how she reacts to what I overheard, then how she reacts to the direct accusation I plan to throw her way. Once we have determined her guilt we will cuff her and

Chapter: Chapter 77 - Facing the truth.Daisy POV - Dave is hiding away in his office, I saw Maddie in the kitchen and asked her, he is blocking my mind link and I swear to the Goddess I am about to explode on him… he can’t keep me out of the loop on these kinds of things, I’m his Beta, regardless of my personal life, the pack comes first. I convince Maddie to come with us, we need all hands on deck for this, and the three of us make our way to Dave’s office. I don’t knock, I just push the door open.Surprisingly, I see Dave startle and shove something under his desk. Confusion and alarm flitter through me when I realise what he did, is he hiding something from me? No, I am being paranoid, he had no idea who it was coming through the door, maybe he wanted to keep something hidden from the guards… but then again, even Maddie wouldn’t just barge in, everybody else would knock and wait to be permitted entrance, but why is he so jumpy?Dave quickly collects himself and glances behind me to see who I have brought up with me.

Chapter: Chapter 76 - Overheard.Dave POV - If Daisy were not otherwise engaged this would have been dealt with by now, as it is, I am glad that I was one of the 2 people to get stuck down here. Once Maria had moved across the gap to sit with me while we waited, we had talked a little, which was my failed attempt at distracting her. I had mind-linked a few of the guys that I knew were close by, but I didn’t want to ignore Maria for too long, so I gave them an idea of what needed to be done to get us out of here. I could sense Maria’s fear, this went deeper than I could understand, for Maria, this was a true horror, bordering on phobia based on her reaction.. During one of the long silences in which I simply held Maria’s hand for comfort, something else filled the silence. A muffled sound, like people speaking, but it was distant, as though through a wall. I gave Maria’s hand a gentle squeeze and whispered that I would be right back, then I focused my hearing, and my vision on the walls. I made my way around the edg

Chapter: Chapter 74 - Seeing him.Maddie POV - I’m not sure how I feel right now, I’m almost 100% sure I am now pregnant, the nausea I experienced yesterday pretty much confirmed it. Its not like I can go to a doctor to check though, the last thing I need is for anyone else to know. They can have their suspicions, but until Ace is free I can’t risk them knowing. If people know, they will expect Dave and I to complete this damn bond and mark each other. Since I have no intention of allowing that to happen, I have to keep this a secret.Today I’m going to do it, I had to put off the plan yesterday thanks to the nauseousness, but I managed to sneak a few herbs from that new herb garden last night and they have eased the discomfort. Although I will admit that being forced to wait a day has actually made my plan much easier, no need to worry about Daisy and her lug of a mate, they are both too wrapped up in each other to worry about what I am up to. So I only need to get rid of Dave and the prison guards for long enough t
