FreyI had marked off two things off my to-do-list which included visiting the witches, and checking up on Shannon's health. My third stop would be Jax. My father had been in the hospital for the past two days. He had fully recovered, and I'd taken him back to the pack house where it was best for me to nurse him back to health.I braced myself and marched down the hallway to Tyler’s room, where Jax had been for the past four days. I had heard that he was unconscious and had lost his wolf after an encounter with the fire wolf Alpha just like my father had said.I tapped my knuckles on the door and waited eagerly for a reply. The door flew open with Tyler, whose expression was a mix of agitation and distress. I pulled him into a sudden embrace, reassured him we would figure out what was wrong with his mate together. “He woke up last night and said just a word. I don't know what to do,” Tyler shrugged. He shut the door, and we both moved toward the bed. I looked at my best friend, and a s
JaxI loved Tyler Chase with all my whole heart, and it hurts me that I'm leaving my home to figure out my past, but I had to do it because if I don't, I might lose my sanity. The next two days after I woke up from the coma, I had been jolting up from my sleep covered in sweat at the stroke of midnight. And it wasn't inevitable tonight.I swished out of the bed and walked into the bathroom, turning on the shower. Sitting down on the floor, I let the warm water trickle down my skin. I had pictured the image of the man in my vision in my sketchbook and was still turning over the options in my head. Damn it! I could leave Tyler or take him with me, but at the risk of plunging myself into a love triangle. I mean, what if he's no longer fated to me when I get my wolf back.I turned off the shower and dried my body after dwelling in my thoughts then I returned to the bed. My mate looked so beautiful in his sleep. I mean, am I supposed to call him mate since there wasn't a bond that tethered
LoganFor the past few days, I ensured we secured the pack as we recovered from the attack. Agatha had already implemented Grainne's idea about the barrier spell. The pack had returned to what it used to be: peaceful and stable.It would be an understatement if I said that Frey’s display of unmatched power didn't astound me. She healed every wolf blood during the battle and she vanquished the enemy. I was aware of Frey’s wishes about her abilities, and would respect any of her choices about her powers. Her father had healed, and she had successfully nursed him back to health.Today was the day that former Gamma Jax left to find his future outside the pack. I genuinely hoped that he would find what he sought out there. But it was certain he would always remain a part of my family.Gamma Alexiares had returned with the wolf bloods he left with on the moon hunt. This was an annual event organized for those who haven't found their mates. And for wolf bloods around the world cut off from th
TylerDear Tyler,Hello, it's me, Jax. This will come as a surprise when you wake up given the wonderful night we had together. And I don't think I'll change my mind. But if I do, I'm sure I'll return to you and ensure you don't see this letter.I’m leaving Night Shade Pack.I made this decision without you, but trust me, I weighed the odds, and letting you know the truth would only hurt you. I’m sorry because I might still hurt your feelings. But I'm not sorry I'm leaving because this decision not only causes a vast change in my life. I think it holds a key to getting my wolf back and discovering the truth about the fire werewolves and why Logan’s father murdered them. I also need to understand the origin of my existence, if I'm really a wolf of Night Shade or dumped in pack territory for a loving family to rescue me.Damn, Ty.I can't stop the tears in my eyes from flowing.I already miss you even though I haven't left, even though I'm still planning our surprise night. I want you to
FreyThe witches had called for a meeting at the courthouse this morning which ruined my chances of sleeping in today as I was exhausted from yesterday's celebration. I walked into the bathroom and ran my hand over my bump with a tired smile as I gazed at my reflection from the sink. I splashed water on my face and exhaled deeply. I went through the usual morning rituals of washing and brushing. When I finished in the bathroom, I returned to my room and changed to a new set of clothes. I walked downstairs after I had finished. “Good morning, Luna.” I heard from Adelyn as I entered the kitchen.“Hey, love. How was your wedding night?”“Fantastic. I told Alex about the good news. He's over excited.”“He should be. It's your first pup.” I told her.“I made waffles.” She passed me a plate, and I hurriedly cleared the content. Waffles reminded me of Jax and a beam plastered across my face.“Is it terrible?”“No, no. Delicious,” I complimented. “It kinda reminded me of my best friend who l
LoganLast night scared me. Watching the witches perform their abracadabra with my pregnant mate. I was glad that Frey had decided that it was time to reach out to her family. She needed the answers more than she knew, and I would be here for her through the truth that awaited us outside the pack.Rounding the territory twice before returning to the pack house to get ready for the day caused a delay in today's run. And guess what I found? What or who?In wolf form, I sprinted down the narrow path of the still forest that still had a sliver of the morning darkness. I came to a halt when my beast's senses picked up a scent. My crimson eyes rose to meet the orange hue of the rising sunlight. Someone was here. I smelt blood and a wolf’s scent. They weren't hounds, but they didn't belong to the pack either. “Please help us!” I heard through a telepathic communication. This wasn't the mind-link because it was only open to wolves of the pack. I could tell if a wolf belonged to my pack or not
FreyI looked through the window, glimpsing the forest of trees that lined the roadway. We had left the pack and had been on the road for the past two hours. My father was behind the wheels, and he was heading up the mountainside, carefully navigating the winding steep slope roads. We emerged into a town after we had driven through the high land and appeared at the settlement. It was larger than I expected. It was normal to find small towns under the mountains, but this place was exceptionally huge. “We’ve arrived.” Denzel prattled and glanced at me through the rearview mirror.I forced a smile whilst my heart slammed against my rib cage. As he drove closer, I felt he was moving nearer to the truth, and it scared me. What if my origins weren't worth it? What if I'm related to the Reaper?I wanted to shut my mind off and vanish for days. But Agatha was right. The truth was awaiting me at the end of that dark hallway, and I had to grasp it and see what’s inside. My thoughts were all over
FreyLogan booked the motel for another night before we left the premises to search for any of my existing relatives. He hurried down the stairs, taking them two at a time, to meet Shannon, Denzel, and me standing in the middle of the compound. “Morning.” He said to us as he couldn't help but notice the surrounding despair. We hadn't resolved our problems last night as they didn't want to talk to me.“Morning, sweetheart.” I said as I laid a kiss on his cheek.“I did a locator spell with Frey’s blood, and it should be able to lead us to his doorstep.” Shannon informed him. Witches could do locator spells with the blood of a relative, something that belonged to that person: their bones, hair or paw or footprints.“Come on, let's get to the car. I'm driving.” Denzel said. Logan tossed him the keys as we traipsed to the vehicle which was parked adjacent to the motel. We got into the seats, and Denzel brought the engine to life, exiting the premises with hands clutched around the steering
