GrainneTyler shielded his face from the abrupt rays of light that emerged into the dark corner that I had locked him up in for a goddess knows how long. The wolves dragged him out of the shit hole, down to the hallway, three turns to the left and one to the right. We arrived at the torture chamber and they pushed him to the cold, hard floor.Falkor was standing in front of the fire, watching over the poker heated by the hot flames.The hounds lifted him effortlessly from the floor, bound him to the chains strapped to the ceiling. His feet were about six inches above the ground, with his head bowed.“Grainne, what are you doing?” he shook his head in denial. “Look at me!” he growled. I arched my brows, completely taken aback by this whole new morale that he had suddenly developed even though he was in captivity. I folded my arms across my chest and rolled my eyes as I stepped toward him slowly.“Don’t worry, Tyler. This is just the beginning.”“You are in collaboration with these monst
LoganGrainne and Tyler went after the wolves that had breached the pack's territory. I had to understand why the barrier wasn't working since the witches tied the spell to the oak tree in the compound or whether a witch compromised the barricade.Alex and I headed to the witch’s side of the pack while Regan and Keaton returned to the pack house to ensure that our mates and children were safe.We arrived at the coven's dwellings; I saw three young witches standing in a circle with their hands entwined together, talisman wrapped around their wrists, and lips moving in sync. Aiden was observing them and asking them to restart the spell each time they failed. I didn't know what kind of spell this was because of the unfamiliar language, but it must have been some kind of defensive spell and might have disrupted the barrier.When Aiden saw me, he broke off the group and marched toward me with arched brows as he noticed the confused expression on my face. “What is it, Alpha?”“Hounds got int
FreyI paced the floor agitatedly as I waited for Logan’s return. It was almost midnight and they were supposed to be back by now. Adelyn and I had put the kids to bed, and Valor and the team had patrolled the pack territory, ensuring the safety of every wolf blood.“Aren’t you supposed to be in bed?” I heard, and I looked over my shoulder, glimpsing Regan, who was standing behind me with his hands folded across his chest.“I have to wait for him.”“Logan will be fine. You need to go to bed and get some rest. I'll call you when he's back. Promise.” He smiled, and I exhaled deeply as I took his words to heart. I didn't know if it was the right thing to do, but my mind wouldn't sit well with me knowing that my mate was out there and could be in danger.I believed his words.Beaming at him, I exhaled deeply and trudged to my room with a stench of exhaustion oozing from me. I reached for the door handle when I appeared in front of my room’s entrance. Twisting the doorknob, I stepped into m
LoganI still recalled how she disappeared into the woods, leaving us behind with these monsters. My best friend betrayed me. She turned against me. All these years I had lost her, I thought I got her back. I thought we could make something out of what we had in the past, but unfortunately, she had other plans.Earlier, a patrol member informed me that Grainne and the hounds took Tyler away, but I didn't want to believe that. I informed Frey about this discovery. We both didn't want to believe it. I had faith in Grainne, but it turned out that she was long gone. I just didn't know that we would walk into a large ensnare that we'd had to fight through before we could escape.The pack would be in danger if we didn't make it back, so I had told Frey to leave with the kids and Adelyn if things go south. I informed Shannon that she should help me with protecting my mate and kids just until I made it back. If I made it back. I hoped my plans would work because if it didn't. These violent cre
FreyI recalled the flashes of what happened last night and the new level of magic I had manifested to protect myself. My eyes fluttered open, and I glimpsed the clump of trees ahead of me. I welcomed the morning sunlight and the wonder of nature that was in front of me. Great, I was in a car in an unknown place. I saw Shannon standing in front of the vehicle I had spent the night in, and I unhooked my seatbelt and climbed down from the car, heading toward her.“How did you find me?”“It wasn't difficult. Logan told me you were in danger, so all I had to do was follow your magic signature.” She answered. Not sure if we were both excited to see each other.She pulled her hair into a bun and marched back to the car. I followed her instantly, dragging my weak knees along with me. I still felt the soreness on my feet from racing through the woods last night.“Let’s find Adelyn and the kids.” I proposed.“They’re safe at home.”“What do you mean? You didn't see what happened last night. Gra
GrainneThe morning sun splashed through the skies, peeling into the courtroom through the transparent windows. It wasn't news that I had taken over the pack with Regan and the wolf shifters. Without mercy, we eliminated the warriors who had tried to resist last night. Not my fault, because I had asked them to stand down, but their pride got the best of them.I stood in front of the lead warriors and elders of the pack, who were bound in chains and gagged. Pierson and Falkor were standing at the far end of the hall while Regan sat on the Alpha throne, placing his legs on the table. He was enjoying this far more than anyone did. “I'm not here to hurt anyone, but if you try to oppose me, I will execute you without mercy. I expect each of you to follow the rules and no one has to get hurt,” I announced and turned to the captured pack warriors with a glass of wine in hand. “Take them back to the dungeons. Pierson, Falkor, sit,” I commanded as I joined Regan on the table. The new wolf warri
LoganWe emerged from the tree line down to the roadway, with Alex still holding onto my feeble frame. The clouds had taken their dark blue color, and we had to find a place to rest for the night. That wasn't an option for my Gamma. He had to get me to the Rogue's Pack because staying out here for too long would only weaken me and leave me as dead weight. My skin had turned pale, and I was running high on fever. I was wrestling with my eyes to keep them open and the venom of the hound's bite on my leg was spreading up to my thighs. I wasn't sure that I would survive this. That I'd make it. What if I didn't? What if I don't see my wife ever again? I had to fight for my family, for my kids, for my pack. I had to survive for my mate. Fight harder, Logan. Fight. You can do this.I grunted and tapped on his shoulder, asking him to slow down. He sighed and placed me on the tree bark, struggling to keep his breathing in check. “We’ll get there. You just have to hold on just a little longer.”
FreyI felt a sharp pain travel from my pelvic region, and a groan escaped my lips, getting Shannon’s attention. She watched me and I chuckled nervously. “It’s ok. The babies are just kicking.” I reassured her that everything was fine as we drove down the path. We were driving closer to the Rogue's Pack. The pain came again, and I held onto my back and groaned. My eyes widened as I realized I was having contractions. My breathing tripled. I struggled to steady my breath as Shannon drove into the Rogue's territory where two armed guards were standing on duty.Shannon pressed on the brake as she rectified things with the patrol and continued the journey, heading straight into the pack house.We pulled up in front of the pack's mansion, where I saw Alex standing with Tyler. He had a hopeful look in his eyes, but when Shannon and I alighted from the vehicle, the anticipation in his eyes faded. He was expecting Adelyn.A trembling sigh escaped my lungs as I strolled toward them. Shannon was
