Kayden Lucy’s words linger on my mind. I don’t know what to believe anymore. Though I wouldn't be surprised if Lexi is cheating. I haven't touched her since we got here and every time I try, an image of the woman I dislike in this pack appears. “ Max you can't attack someone like that do it right this time!” I scold one of my warriors. “ Yes, alpha.” He continues to attack and my mind strays once more. Can Lexi really be cheating? Or doesn't Lucy just want to destroy my relationship with Lexi simply because the mating ceremony is in a few days? I can't trust Lucy’s words anyway. I know she may only want to say something that will benefit her in the future. I continue to walk around as I observe the warriors. Watching them one by one assessing those who have improved and those who haven't. Even as I move I can feel her eyes on me. I know she watching me and my body feels like fire where ever her eyes touch. I groan, it's hard to pretend like I don't feel it when
Lucy Sometimes you would wonder if hardships are tailor-made for you. Not that I have any right to complain when most of the hardships are the consequences of my bad decisions. Days have been rushing, probably rushing to the mating ceremony. Only two days are left and the whole pack is running wild. It feels weird to me that I am not the only one organizing anything. I was so used to being the seer of such events and now I am not. Yet again it's better this way. What is worse is organizing your ex mates new mating ceremony when you want him to. Sparing me both the trouble and heartache. “ Lucy!” My young bro Justin call and I focus my gaze on him. “Yes.” I say as I tuck in one my wild love behind my ear. “ Were you even listening to me?” He asks, he looks concerned. “ Yeah Justin I am.” I lie. I didn't hear anything. “ So what do you think?” He asks as he gives me an expectant look and a warm smile. My eyes shift around as I don't even know what to say. He got me here, what d
Lucy “ What rumors?” I ask just to be sure. It seems like there are a lot of stories circulating about me that even I am not aware of. “ That you are working with rouges.” He presses. I roll my eyes, “ don't roll your eyes at me!” He snaps as he fists his large palm. “ Okey alpha,” I drag out his name deliberately. He narrows his eyes into slits and I give him a nervous smile. “ I ain't working with any rouges besides I told you the reason why I was visited by one the last time,” I say quietly. The memory still hurts, Stacy is the best friend I will ever have and now she hates and blames me for how life turned upside down. He runs his fingers through his hair. It seems to have grown out from the way he usually keeps it. Even so, he still manages to pull off a sexy look. He repeats the action yet again and I can't help but check him out. I wish I has a camera to freeze this moment in a picture. I bite my lips and he groans as he looks away. I roll my
Lucy The big day is finally here and I am shivering like no man's business. It ain't even my big day but seeing that the man I wanted to reconcile with is mating with another is heartbreaking. I think it's high time I listened to the advice that mum and Xavier have been trying to tell me but am too stubborn to get the memo. I breathe in some air as I try to fix my hair it's not even my day why do I have to look nice for this? I am adorned in a simple flared black polka dot dress and some sandals. Overall I can say I look very nice but I feel weird as I am used to my usual t-shirt and jeans style or at least shorts. My long thick black hair is perfectly styled and I made sure to apply some makeup. Too much effort if you ask me on a day that surely ain't mine neither do I want to attend it but it's not like I have a choice. The ceremony is going to be held at Grand Square the first thing that will take place is the joining of two packs together and the next is the mating ceremony so
Lucy To say I am surprised is an understatement. Lexi had managed to gather everyone's attention. Everyone no regarded me as an enemy. Is this what she meant when she said she will go to any lengths to get me kicked out and now that she had found the right moment she had taken that chance? My mouth was dry as I tried to form any words just to convince everyone it wasn't me. “ I am not the cause, I haven't had any contact with rouges I didn't even know they would attack.” My voice was shallow as I tried to defend myself. Lexi shook her head vigorously like she wasn't going to have any of what I said. This bitch was truly evil. “Don't believe any word she says. She is a great lair did any of you even know that she once rejected the alpha?” Lexi pressed. I could hear several gasps, rejections weren't common among us, and that only caused an even great steer. I began to lose hope this isn't a battle I thought I was going to win. “ I had my reasons. He deserved a
Lucy The chaos has finally settled, and days have passed since the funerals for the family that lost their loved ones were held. This was a direct declaration of war and we need to fight back. We need to attack too, to put an end to this war once and for all. Even as more days tick by Ace is still no show. It all made sense he started the rumors about me to cover up his wrongdoing. And while everyone seemed to be more focused on me he was able to do whatever he wished. The pack simply became his playground. The main question remained did he have any accomplices? Are the accomplices still in this pack watching us while they sent information out? I feel there is a lot more going on and if we pay close attention we will be able to see it all. It's evening and I am on that footpath that I have gotten to know like the back of my hand. I am focused as I go there, more like keeping my mind from thinking about a particular alpha. I smile when I realize that he still isn't mated.
Lucy Xavier is crazy. His words make my eyes go wide. “ I didn't sign up for this moreover I have never drunk before. This is too much I will probably die for this.” I panic. My hands are shaking as I talk trying to knock some sense into both of these crazy men. “ Trust me you won't die it's just some little alcohol,” Kayden says as he rolls his eyes at my dramatic self. “ It's not about the alcohol it's about poisoning ourselves to weaken our system just so we can get drunk. Kayden I am not doing this.” I begin to stand up. “ Sit down,” Kayden growls out his powerful aura slips out and it has me dropping back onto the chair. “ We have told you wolfsbane won't kill you. You will be weak yeah but dying no. Don't be a pussy.” My jaw drops, is they the same uptight man I know? Has he always been this reckless in secret? “ Now that,” Xavier gestured with his hands, “Is over let the games begin.” I watch as Xavier brings forward a stark of cards. I raise my brow b
Lucy “I guess you know what this means.” He says softly as his eyes search mine with an intensity I haven't felt before. My amber eyes are on trained on his greens one as my face is cradled softly in his large hands like I am a bit porcelain doll. “No, I dont know what this means,” I whisper back lowly. I can't help but smile softly at him. “Just shut up and kiss me.” He doesn't waste time, he bends and his lips capture mine and I am in ecstasy is this how it is supposed to fill? My lips mold against his in a slow sensual manner. He grabs the back of my neck and positions it in a way that his tongue can explore my inviting mouth even more. My hands go around his neck as we kiss slowly a lot of emotions I can't make out are poured into this one kiss. Slowly it gets even more demanding and I meet his demands with my own. It slowly gets even more passionate than it should. At this moment it feels like it's only us two in this world. A moan escapes my lips and Kayden g
Good, this fight is very much needed she thinks she can torment everyone I love simply because she can't have everything she has desired for in this life. I am tired of everyone having a say over my life. It's always me doing what is great for everyone else and never myself. I also deserve some happiness. Stacy glares at me harshly and her glare does nothing to scare me away. “ You really think you can take me down, Lucy.” She taunts me with the largest annoying smirk on her lips.Carefree I reply, “Easy peasy lemon squeezy.” That sure infruates her more when she passes me another nasty glare. Raymond is still passed out on the ground and doesn't look like he will be waking up any time soon. “ Do I need to stick around?” Kayden asks me. “ Not necessary, just finish off Raymond.” I command and passes me a curt node. Stacy growls at my words and she tries to make a dash for it to save Raymond. She fast but I am faster. I grab the collar of her shirt and throw her away from Raymon
Kayden Hours before reaching the pack. The tunnels are dark but with my sharp eyesight. I find it easy to navigate through. I follow Aiden’s lead; he seems to know these tunnels well. The only sound in the tunnels is the sound of our footsteps. The warriors follow right behind as we run at an incredible speed. Soon the darkness fades into light as we make it out of the dark tunnels only to find ourselves near Lucy’s house. Talk about it being Weird, it makes more sense and adds up to how Stacy was able to come and go in the pack as well as Ace. My biggest mistake was not finding out how they did it. I just blamed the patrol team. The chaos in the pack pumps me to shift and everyone follows. Jumping into the action, I give Jax all the control. He runs in a blur as he takes down most of the affected pack members who have turned into ugly monsters. ‘Don't kill everyone, most of them are our pack members. And I don't want to lose any of us. If you can manage to sniff them out. I know
Raymond stands between Xavier and I. Xavier is still on the ground recovering from the fierce blow. He coughs up blood and my heart shatters. There is only one way this will work. “ I can take care of him, Xavier!” I shout to him and he shakes his head. He is one stubborn cone to crack. Raymond growls fiercely at me when I try to take a step forward. “ Let Xavier and the others go. I will fight you.” I demand confidently. Raymond sneers, “ I will let them go but that doesn't guarantee their safety in the future.” It won't guarantee if I don't win this fight and the only way in doing so is by winning. “ I know but let them go. You have already done enough to them. Xavier is back on his feet though he limps as he moves to the truck. ‘ I will send some warriors to help you.’ He mind links me and I simply shake my head. ‘ I have taken down men bigger than him.’ I reply and he gives me a confident small smile. Like promised he makes it to the truck and the engine comes to life.
Lucy What to do? What to do? Our footsteps echo in the tunnels as we go to see just how bad the situation is. We make it to the room and everyone is passed out. Everything here is made out of metal and our footsteps are easily heard. We pace around as we think of what step to take next. Each time we waste things get even more fatal. “ Is everyone who was taken here?” I immediately ask Aiden. “ No, I believe the others have been turned into those monsters. She probably used the others blood to poison the rest while Raymonds blood was the main of it all.” He explains and we nod in understanding. Besides, it's the only explanation that seems to make sense at this point. Stacy is really a freak, when did she change to become this bad. All for what power? “ What are we going to do?” Our eyes go wide like saucers as we all stare at Kayden, not believing the words that left his mouth. “ Are you asking us what to do?” Aiden questions with enthusiasm. Kayden nods his head and our jaws
Everyone has my support well everyone except the most important person needed to give me and Maya the go ahead. This is a crucial moment and I know it. There is a possibility that Barbra won't accept what we want to do. It's her life’s son on the line. And every second we waste his condition worsens. “ We have to go ahead and find the others.” Kayden commands me. He hasn't taken into account that Barbra is a concern for me too. “ I can't go ahead as you say, not until the mothers’ boy is here. She has to agree too.” I inform him. Dad nods his head but Kayden doesn't. I don’t think this is a decision we will both agree on. “ I am sure she will understand. I am the Alpha after all. My word is law, and I say we go ahead and save the others. I will leave the antidote behind and when everyone is found the boy can be given.” “ That still isn't fair to the mother, Kayden. Yes, your word is law but as Luna this is where I come in and advocate for everyone else.” As we bicker back and f
Lucy I pull away from Kayden and he growls. “ Oh sorry!” Dad shouts and rushes right out. I must be mad but I continue until my mate gets his release, spilling his seed right in mouth.i swallow it all down and wipe away what is left on the side of my mouth. I sit on the floor and laugh, I have never been so embarrassed before out of everyone it had to be dad. Kayden laughs with me as he tucks in his dick. He lifts me off the floor and places me on his laps. “ I want to taste you right now but your dad is waiting for us.” He chuckles while he talks and I can't help but do the same. He places a kiss on my forehead and he stands up with me in his arms. “ Put me down!” I whine. He shakes his head, “ But I enjoy carrying my mate.” “ I ain't a pup Kayden.” He hums and ignores me altogether. He opens the door with his free hand and dad stands there waiting for us. He looks anywhere but at us. This has put all of us in an uncomfortable position. The atmosphere slowly grows tense.
The run back home was much better than getting here. It took us two days this time to get there than when going. We may not have gotten all the solutions but it was enough to give us a starting point. “ What's the status update?” I ask dad who remained in the pack to make sure everyone else was safe. “ Aiden and Xavier have not found the missing children.” Dad says with distress in his voice. I can understand him, being without his mate for days is taking its tow on him. The missing people have taken a tow on everyone and to make matters worse each person gets released every day into their monster form. Each day spent without finding Stacy is a day we turn an innocent child into a monster. “ Have you heard from Xavier?” Kayden asks dad and I wait for his response. “ No, I haven't heard anything from him.” Kayden and I sigh at the same time and we look at each other smirking and then shaking our heads. “ What info did you get from Megan?” We explain everything that Megan told u
“ What do you mean you don't have the answers we seek?” I ask after being quiet for such a long time. The shock wears off, my mind has been running wild, seeing Justin and mum in that state will be the end of me for sure. It all doesn't just make sense, Stacy has too many advantages over us and I begin to doubt if at all we will win this battle. Megan was my only hope and hearing her say these words doesn't sit well with me. “ I mean just that, Lucy. I don't have the answers you are looking for.” She states more firmly this time. She holds my gaze with her pale blue eyes, they look so pale I almost thought they were white. “ But we came all this way and travelled for three day without food and you tell us, you don't have any answers.” My voice comes out calmly even though a storm is raging inside me. “ But there is nothing I can do.” She doesn't waver with her answers. It's like everything I said just breezed through her. “ NO!” I spit, “ there is something you can but you don'
Lucy’s eyes go wide when she answers the phone. All of us in the room stall. It's so quiet you could hear a pin drop. “ Fuck you Stacy. This is between you and me. There is no need to involve innocent pack members.” Lucy sneers into the phone. I can't help but hold back a growl. Stacy and her mate need to be taught a lesson. The rest of us remain quiet as we listen to the conversation. “ You must be so naive if you think I am doing this because of you. What are you?” Stacy chuckles darkly. Lucy takes in a deep breath before asking. “ Then why are you doing this?” “ Let me just say for the same reason you once rejected your mate. I want the power that I once hard back but I don't need those pathetic park members when I can rule over great things.” Stacy states with a wicked laugher that's has me wanting to scratch my face. Lucy is now standing no longer laying on the sofa like she was some minutes ago. I try my best to stay calm, I can't ruin this maybe this might give is a clu
