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
LoganWas this what it felt like to be a dad?When I held my sons, I felt pride, joy, and inexplicable love for these little minions who hadn't let me sleep in days. I loved them even more than I could imagine no matter how tiny they were; they were still so beautiful. The primal instinct I had was to protect them and make this world a better place for them. I was certain parenting won't come easy especially with taking care of the pack, but Frey and I would get through this together.I carefully set the kids down into the baby cot when they had finally fallen asleep in my arms after I had sung them a lullaby for almost an hour. An exhausted sigh escaped my lips as Frey barged into my room, and I glanced at her with wild eyes, hushing her instantly. “The kids. They're asleep.” I whispered as I moved toward her. These little ones really knew how to keep us on our toes, but I didn't regret any moment I had spent with them. I never will. It had been a week since she put to bed, and she ha
LoganWe had arrived in our home and stationed our vehicles in the dark woods just outside the pack borders. Tyler and Keaton were looking at the number patrols surrounding the pack's border and, thankfully, there weren't so many of them. He had informed us through the mind-link that Grainne had changed the patrol team. That was what I expected. I mean, if she had let the patrol wolves take care of the pack’s security, then she would make it easier for us.A rustle in the forest pulled my attention, and I turned on my heels as my eyes gained their crimson glow. I sighed in relief when I saw Keaton and Tyler emerging from the cluster of woodlands. It had taken them so long I was worried. But now they were back, we were going to discuss how we would take care of this without killing the innocent and that included everyone that lived in our pack at the moment. “How many are there?” I inquired.“A lot. They haven't discovered our presence because their wolf's senses are not as powerful as
TylerWe moved toward the direction of the south of the pack. I was in wolf form and Keaton in human form, killing the hounds that posed a threat to our lives. I heard Logan’s voice in the mind-link. Don't kill anyone unless necessary. I wouldn't get killed in battle because I was feeling generous. If they as much tried to raise a finger at me while we both negotiated keeping their lives. I would kill them without thinking twice.An arrow left Keaton’s crossbow and struck the hound hurrying toward us. He was taking down the creatures’ legs, so they weren't able to fight back.I sprinted after the second creature, leaping into the mid air and raking my claws against it. The wolf passed out, and we both proceeded to the wing where we built the pack's dungeons.We didn't expect less than a freak show, so we both hid behind the thorn bushes and observed the hound guards that were standing at the entrance armed with weapons. There were about fifteen of them. Grainne knew if we were reclaimi
