( Yvonne's P.O.V. )So the hostility between mine and Connor's dads has not gone down at all. Although they have learned that they can't be outright hostile. Instead they've resorted to acts of the more passive aggressive sort. It's funny, actually, to watch two alphas hide their anger and dig at each other by means of nice insults."No wonder you never travel. Why travel when you have no reason to fear people's allegiance?"Connor's dad says to my father."Well, you see, I take it as the fact that I'm strong enough to keep enemies at bay. Seeing as you've so graciously asked me to help defend your lands before, I believe you understand what I mean."Connor and I decided to stop trying to break apart their ego fueled arguments a while back. Instead we took seats beside our mothers. We are currently Separated while our mothers are in an excited conversation about grandpups. "T'll have at least one very soon. My first child, Greyson, and his mate are pregnant." My mother says with a pr
( Yvonne's P.O.V. )It's pitch black all around me, and not even my tigress can see. I try to sit up, but a sharp pain stabs the back of my head. My hand immediately goes to the place it hurts, and I groan.A sliver of light comes into the room as a door opens, and there is that man. "Hullo." He has a huge smile on his face, he's probably a psycho. "Did you sleep well?" He grabs a chair from a wall and sets it about two feet away from me before sitting in it.I look him over with a perplexed look. "I didn't sleep. Your lackey punched me in the face and knocked me out." He nods his head at me."I am truly sorry about that, but you were a problem, and his orders were to get you here. You're here, so he is not in trouble." His face barely looks sad. If he's acting, it isn't good."Who are you? And why do you want me?" The man doesn't move, and his gaze seems to look through me. It's unnerving, and I begin to shift in my seat."My name isn't important." He waves a hand nonchalantly, but
( Charlotte’s POV )"Shit, shit, shit, shit!" Maddox curses, repeatedly.I laugh silently, looking at his flustered face. He's in big trouble-big, big trouble.Maddox drags me with him at the corner. "Maddox Alexander Peredon! What did you do this time?"Alpha Reddox growls, demandingly."I'm with my girlfriend!" Maddox hisses.I scoff, "Girlfriend? Please.""Is that Charll?" Alpha Reddox states, smugly.Oh God, please help me through this.I take the phone from Maddox's grasp, and place it against my ear. "Don't you dare start with me, old man-I've gone through enough crap with your son." I chuckle slightly. "He's like you, strong willed."Alpha Reddox laughs, hardily. "Me? Oh please, I'm much sexier than that idiot."I scoff once more, "Yep, he's definitely like you. I guess he's tracing your footsteps then.""He needs a pair of balls to look like this. He's a pusMaddox snatches the phone, "Dad, shut up! You're embarrassing me!" Maddox grumps.Maddox and Alpha Reddox, go well toge
(Charlotte’s POV )I felt nothing. I don't feel a single thing.My body is numb and my head hurts a lot.I opened my eyes widely, but soon enough, winced at the pain of the light. I wanted to say something, yet nothing comes out of my mouth. And once I shut my mouth I tasted fresh blood. My head is like a rock concert; when a drumstick hits the drum, the drum trembles, loudly."Scream" My head tells me. And I did."Charll?" A soft voice asks. I instantly notice Maddox, but he's not inside. He's out. How did he get there? I intently look at him, he looks fine. He has a few scratches on his face, and there's a cut on the side of his head.Why am I still inside?My eyes start to water. I feel my bones out of place."Maddox," I cry, "it hurts." I told him.That's when my vision starts to blur, I'm losing my sight. Instead of fighting back, I close my eyes and let the darkness consume me.There's yelling. All I can hear is people yelling at each other. They're not bickering. That's not h
( Connor’s POV )I can't believe I let her get taken. She was right there. My hands tug at my hair and I feel my fuse getting shorter and shorter."Her scent stops at an old abandoned house. If she's there, there is a possibility they killed her and dumped her body there." One of the wolves that had followed her scent gives his report to Yvonne's dad and I growl loudly."She isn't dead." Everyone stares at me and I feel my wolf clawing to get control.I have to find her. Mate is the only thing I need. I run my hands through my hair again and stand.Eyes follow me, and I can't help but feel claustrophobic. "My mate has been taken by some wolf, and we are all just sitting here, talking. We should be out there looking for her. I should be out there." Alpha Desperte stands and nods. "I want four teams of seven surrounding that house. Anyone goes in or out, I hear about it immediately." A man nods and rushes out to do his bidding. "Now Connor, I get that she is your mate and you're worr
( Connor’s POV )I look at everyone, and they all look at me. Raising a fist in the air I yell. "Let's go get my mate!" They all cheer at me and I take off. The menacing sound of pounding footsteps follows behind me.A smirk forms on my face when I see scared enemy wolves. "Follow her scent to the right! That's the other place." Half of the group breaks off and everything turns to chaos when the entirety of the enemy wolves charge out of the abandoned house.( Yvonne’s POV )Xaviar abruptly takes the brander off of my throbbing back, cursing. He throws it into the hot coals and charges out of the room only to come back a minute later. "Rogues are attacking, at a fucking time like this." As if we were getting anywhere. "Get up." He snatches my arm and abruptly pulls me out of the chair. "We are going to get you out of here, before they kill you." Like he cares what happens to me.Not having enough energy to fight back, he drags me behind him. We leave the room and he runs down a hallw
( Charlotte’s POV)I was lost for words.I can't believe it.I don't even know what to utter.Maddox isn't a Hybrid. He's still a werewolf. He's a different classification of one.The Broken/Broken Werewolves are powerful. One Broken can destroy a living army of soldiers, without getting hurt badly. They are like Lycans, but it takes two to kill one Broken. They kill authorities, even those from the committee. The Broken were bitten by past punished werewolves, meaning all of them are extinct but one seems to be alive. That's the Broken Dean, he's like a demon sent from hell. He is here to torture us. He's here to show his purpose in our world.He's the only pureblood-he's the only one that has survived for a very long time. His people are only half blood. They are his minions. He tells them what to do, and they should do it.And what disgusts me most is that he needs to continue his race. He allures or rapes women and then takes their child once they are born. They're all related, b
( Yvonne’s POV )I woke up in my bed about an hour ago. Connor is laying on the couch, but he keeps having nightmares.After watching for a minute, hoping he'd calm down, I climbed out of bed and walked over to him.Kneeling in front of him, I place a hand on his cheek. As his face relaxes he sighs in his sleep.Connor looks so peaceful and child-like this way.The temptation to kiss him is overwhelming and I have to force myself not to.I go to stand up and his eyes crack open. "Why are you out of bed?" He asks as he sits up and rubs his eyes."You were having a nightmare." I watched him for a second before going on. "What was it about? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, it just worries me." His shoulders slump forward and he reaches out his hand. I take it and he pulls me onto his lap.Before he talks, he takes a deep breath of my scent. His hot breath on my neck makes me want to shiver but I hold it back. "You were taken away from me again and I couldn't find you anyw
