Caleb’s POV

"Fuck…what happened?" I breathed out, my gaze coasting over every inch that I could see. Each destroyed building, each dead body inside felt like a spike through my heart as it was a certain reminder that I had failed my people.

Once again…

"After you uh…" he looked away, attempting to find the words. "After what happened to you, they raided the place before they left and there wasn't much, we could do. They outpowered us, two to one." He explains quietly and I see his shoulders droop, knowing he was taking the full blame for everything.

"Did they take anyone?" I waited with bated breath for the answer, already having an idea what it would be.

Nevertheless, that didn't make it any less painful. "Yeah. Some women and children."

I couldn't breathe. "Holy…" The crushing weight of responsibilities was on my shoulders, and it felt as if they were weighing me down, not letting me up for air. Then I remembered the wise words of my father and what he advised me to do in situations

    Katherine’s POV My jaw dropped at his declaration, and I wondered whether he had a few screws loose in his head, after all this wasn't the first time, I'd met a devastatingly handsome man who turned out to be a basket case...if it seemed to be a running thing around me. "Tell me you're joking." I scoffed, even though the pit of my stomach felt uneasy. He crossed his feet in a dainty manner and addressed me coolly. "I never joke." "Must be such a bore, then," I muttered under my breath. Out loud I said. "You captured me to take my blood? What am I, a lab rat?" "It's quite sad to see that even you don't know the potential that you carry in your body." He took his gaze over my body, and I felt violated. If not because he said he was my brother- which I didn't fully believe- I would have thought he desired me but all I saw in his eyes was cold detachment, the type you had when you were assessing furniture to see if it would fit in with the aesthetics of the home. "Since I don't know,

    Caleb’s POV "Harder! Push harder!!" I shout but Daniel just hits me. "Oomphf! What was that for?" I groused. "You're making a whole lot of noise! If they don't catch us, then surely your noisemaking will let them know that we're here." He grumbles, raising a valid point so I wisely shut up. He grunts and gives me the extra boost I needed to get over the ledge. I groaned and slapped my hands on the concrete, holding on firmly so I didn't lose my grasp on the wall. I have puff and grunt until I can swing one leg over and I flop to the ground. I take a second breather and then I lean over the ledge, looking for Daniel but I don't see him. "Daniel!" I hissed sharply, frantically searching around with my eyes but he was nowhere to be seen. That was until he popped his head out from the corner. "What is it?" "Geez, do you want to scare me to death?" I whisper yell. "I was looking for you." "I thought I saw something." He shook his head to remain focused. He prepared to stand on the led

    Shadow’s POV The whole ground shook underneath my feet and men and women started to scream aloud in fright. I hung on to the nearest table to steady me. Once I gained my balance, I powered through and tried walking to the other side of the room despite the turbulence but suddenly the window exploded into a million bits halfway there. The screaming intensified and I crashed to the floor, something heavy slamming into the sides of my head. The pain was disorienting, and I lost my balance for several seconds, but I quickly got back up. I felt a thick liquid slide down my face, and I distractedly touched it, bringing my fingers down so I saw that it was blood despite being unable to take my eyes off the sight before me. A line of people was trying to sneak out on the ground and there was a helicopter waiting to take off a couple of feet away. I recognized the wild brown hair of the woman and I realized that it was Katherine! She was escaping before my very eyes!! I growled and sto

    Caleb’s POV I couldn't go back on my word now. Ethan came at me with the blade, but I raised my cuffed wrists at him. "You'll have to take this off." He thinks about it for a second before he grudgingly nods at the man to take it off from me. He removes a key from the strap on his waistband and comes towards me. I hold still while he unlocks mine and for a second, I want to ask they also remove Daniel's but then I have to make them trust us enough to let us roam around unarmed. The cuffs fall from my wrists to the floor, and I take a step forward, bringing out my palm so Ethan can place the hilt in it. He eyes me warily before carefully dropping it, probably waiting for me to flip. "Do you have a cup or bowl or something?" I asked him, the sharp edge of the blade hovering over my palm. With a flick of Ethan's hand, the man goes deeper into the office, probably a secret compartment that we can't see, and brings out a clear crystal bowl. He placed it on the desk, and I walked over

    Caleb’s POVWe landed safely on the strip a couple of distance away from Shadow's mansion and I as well as the man directed to go rescue Kathrine jumped down first, while the rest were to follow soon after.Ethan said he was coming with us, or else the mission was canceled without him, so we grudgingly accepted."Good luck, man." Daniel bumps me on the back as I reach for my back before leaving and I bump him too, wishing him the same.The chopper went back and flew away, presumably to land in a more secure spot while they waited for us. I had to give a signal once we had success in retrieving Katherine, then they could attack and use the cover to escape.All in all, it seemed like a good plan, but one teeny, tiny mistake could make it blow all up in our face."Where is the map?" I gestured to the guy who was assigned to me to produce the layout of where Ethan guessed Katherine could be held."I have it. It says that Katherine should be held here." He points to a dot on the map."Let'

    Freya’s POV"Hello?!" I yelled into the empty room and my words echoed loudly in the wide space.Sometimes, I didn't even know why I even attempted when it wasn't like there was anyone who would respond to me.The chains jangled when I moved, but still held me in place, not allowing me to move an inch. When I did move, it cut into my wrists.*Is anyone there?!" In response, I heard the scuffle of boots around where I was, and my heart skipped a beat. I stayed still and waited for the door to open, while I was just starting to think about my next move. I wrapped the handle of the chains around my fingers, ready to swing it away which was a weapon.I was surprised that my calls were even answered since it's been over three weeks since I was thrown down here, apparently, my captors had forgotten about me.A lean, blond-haired guy opened the door and stepped in there, and was shooting angry looks from his eyes at me. "What the hell is wrong with you? Why all the yelling?!"I pretended to

    Freya’s POVTwo weeks after her escape…"Is this it?" I squinted at the gods forsaken building that stood tall."Yes ma'am." The man who took me here going by Gordon eagerly nodded his head up and down. I met him a week later. My plan was fully hatched, and I was ready to implement it. Turns out that he was the perfect person for the job, as he knew every nook and cranny of the silver Moon pack intimately and he would be able to get me to where I needed."Are you sure?" I eyed him and the building respectively, not ready to let go of this money especially if it was false news.Gordon had asked for a ridiculous sum which to him was justified since he was putting his life on the line here, and I grudgingly accepted."What the hell do you mean, lady?" He starts to fume, his stocky build getting more pumped up. "You think I'm gonna rip you, I'm not one of those niggas, bitch!"I whirled around and moved close to him. "Don't ever call me bitch again!" I growled, my wolf rising to the surfa

    Katherine’s POVThe sound of voices echoing woke me up from my slumber. It was all blurry at first, then everything came into focus. I spotted Caleb first, then Daniel, his friend, and a couple of other people in the room. Someone turned and left the room and for a moment I thought it was Ethan but when I shook my head slightly, I didn't see anyone.My head movement however let the others know that I was now awake. "She's awake!" Someone squeals and Caleb rushes towards me, worry etched into the lines on his forehead."Baby, are you okay?" He says and places his hands on my forearms. I was just about to reassure him when the pressure of his fingers on my body made me scream out loud, pain rocketing through my body. That was when I discovered that every inch of my body was in pain and even a slight movement made it even worse so I stopped moving my body."I'm sorry!" Caleb instantly removes his hands and the pressure abates causing the pain to reduce. I feel terrible for making him worr

    Katherine's POVAs both Caleb and I fell to the ground, funny enough I didn't feel anything different...maybe a wound or puncture or something.Nothing. I felt fine.Caleb immediately rolled off me, inspecting my body for damage but I waved him off with an 'I'm Fine' only for me to look further and see Tyrone's dead, sightless eyes staring up at me.I let out a sound that stemmed from my feelings of shock and horror. He was lying just at my feet with a bullet hole in his head.His face was even frozen in a surprised expression like he couldn't believe it. Pressing a hand to my mouth to retain the whimper, tears sprang up to my eyes.It occurred to me then that Tyrone had pushed us away to take the bullet for us.In other words, he died for us.If only I had listened to him, then he wouldn't be dead!The sound of engines snapped me out of my reverie, pushing me into action when I realized that his murderers were about to flee.Caleb tried to hold me back when I raised 'ready to kill ey

    Katherine’s POVI watched everything that happened from afar, too shocked to even move.Was Daniel dead?After Daniel had been placed on the stretcher and taken away, Caleb went berserk.As in spitting mad.I've never seen him so pissed off as he charged at the man that fired the gun which had pierced Daniel's chest.The guy didn't even stand a chance as Caleb pummeled him into the ground, practically tearing him from limb to limb.After that he went wild and started to tear into our opponents, the pain of watching Daniel almost die pushing him.While I was distracted, several men came towards me and one of them had changed into his wolf form.Snatching a grenade off a stash, I ran and threw it behind me because I knew there was no way I could fight them all at once.Unfortunately, I wasn't out of the blast radius yet, and the force of the blast threw me thirty feet into the air. I landed hard on a piece of metal torn off a car and it was painful.I could feel my enhanced healing kick

    Daniel’s POVI was on the sidelines when the war started, pretending to assist from the back. When those excuses ran out, I took charge of the men, ordering them to go batch by batch. I was doing everything possible in my power not to go out there.Not only did I not want to be seen as a traitor but the thought of killing and butchering the people I once called friends… turned my stomach.Being here alone made me feel sick but I didn't know how to get out of it without raising Ethan's suspicions.But when Shadow arrived with over two thousand of his men, I had no choice but when Shadow arrived, I had no choice but to fight alongside them. I left the back entrance, and I followed them to fight.Instead of fighting for Ethan, killing Caleb's people I was secretly helping Caleb's men by fighting against Ethan. I had just dodged a blow from one of Ethan's men, rolling to my feet about to stab him in the back when I saw Shadow coming out from Caleb's house with someone in tow. At first, I

    Shadow's POVThat kid was like me.That was.He was faster and dare I say, stronger than I was. It was scary to think and after I broke his left, I ran away.Because of two reasons.One I had other plans and two, there was a slight possibility that that kid could beat me in front of my men...it was slightly but I wasn't taking it.Sneaking into Caleb's house was pretty easy to do. Everyone was distracted with either saving their city or their lives, leaving the house wide open.My source informed me that this was the spot, so my steps were sure and measured. With my long coat hiding my build from others, I was able to blend in.There were three men at the entrance of the door. The one closer to me was the first to see me approach and he yelled in warning. Unfortunately for them, he was too slow, and by the time he finished uttering the words, his two colleagues were dead, one with a knife to his throat and the other with a bullet embedded into his forehead.The guy ran back in horror,

    Freya's POVIt took almost seven hours before I got close to Caleb's pack. Four hours by bus and three by running on land. Finally, I was close enough to hear it.The sound of violence was even louder than I expected and for a moment, I second-guessed all my decisions that had brought me here to this point.I hesitated, pressing my back to the big, rocky boulder that was behind me. I ducked my head and closed my eyes in fear when I heard an explosion rock the entire city. That was big!I didn't know how to feel, and running back the way I came from crossed my mind.I squashed the thought almost immediately. I was here already, no way I was going to run.Every pit stop made by the bus made me contemplate jumping down but I kept on pushing until I was here…Another explosion follows closely behind the first one, but this time even the boulder behind me shakes from the force.It's even closer than before. I raised my head to peep over the boulder, noticing that there were a couple of men

    Freya's POVI was sitting down in a dive bar slash restaurant at noon minding my business when the bell over the door chimed to announce people walking into the store.I turned to look at who had arrived just like everyone else in the place and saw two ladies chatting animatedly with hand gestures and the works.The relief was instantaneous, and my shoulders relaxed a bit. Even though I've been in a beautiful town called Cubanos just a couple miles south of Florida for two weeks, I've been anxious and tense whenever I've seen or spoken to anyone else. The first week was the worst and I'm sure I had people looking at me to find out what was wrong or being hesitant to walk up to me.I had just had this crazy feeling that either Ethan or Shadow was going to find me. It was so bad that I didn't step foot out of my room for the first three days until I was driven out by hunger.Quite pathetic.Even coming out here was factored in by a guy. I'd gone to the only supermarket this town boasted

    Katherine's POVMy body was light and weightless, almost paper-like in comparison.I didn't feel anything for some seconds until I crashed back to reality. My hearing was fuzzy, and things sounded distant. My breathing was erratic as I sought to control it.Turning to my side, pain sprang up the moment I moved my body and I whimpered. My entire side felt like it was being steam cooked.I was in agony as I couldn't even turn or move. The pain started to subside after some minutes, as my body started to heal itself. I must have blacked out because the next thing I saw was Caleb's face and he carried me through the city, avoiding heated zones so he could take me to the clinic.Unfortunately, the bouncing aggravated the pain I felt, and I screamed out loud. I kept on screaming until he dumped me on a bed and something sharp pricked my skin and I floated off. I was waking up and slipping back into unconsciousness as my body fought to heal all the damaged tissues. There were times it felt l

    Katherine’s POVA huge rumble of explosion woke me out of bed, and I jumped into action, my heart hammering like a drum.It was weird, almost like I went back in time, and I was at Serenity where Shadow was attacking us all over again.I quickly put on my dress because I'd already selected my outfit days ago, I didn't want to be taken by surprise.Calen treated me to the most amazing dinner night yesterday almost like he knew that this was going to take place.I was halfway out the door when another boom sound rocked the house similar to an earthquake and I dived towards the bed, holding on to something strong. It passed and I was able to stand up without the fear of falling. I ran out the door and into the hallway to meet a total mess. Several pieces of furniture were turned upside down and the entire place in disarray.I could see masked men fighting, trying to get in but our men were holding them down. From here I had a clear view of what was going on outside and my stomach twisted

    Ethan’s POVWe were two days away from attacking Caleb's pack, but everything had to be put in place to ensure that there would be no losses on our end.I was poring through the plans, schematics, and strategic plans we had come up with for attack, defense, and offense when there was a sharp knock on the door, seconds later the door was pushed open to let someone in."Yes, what is Alvin?" I immediately covered the plans I was looking at because right now I didn't know who to trust."There's someone who has something to tell you, sir." He moved out of the way to allow Enrique who had been undercover in Shadow's territory for a long time come through.I stood up the moment I saw him, my heart racing for several reasons. I wasn't expecting him, and it wasn't time for him to come home."What are you doing here?" I asked him, before remembering we had an audience. To Alvin, I said, "You can leave."We both waited until he left the room, the door locking softly behind him and until we could
