Livie (a few days later)It's Ricky's birthday, he's finally turning 19 today. I can't believe time has gone by so fast. I still have about eight months before my birthday, but I am so happy right now, nothing can possibly ruin today.I have been preparing non-stop for today for days, making sure to have everything set perfectly. Ricky doesn't want anything big and extravagant, which is impossible since our pack is so big. Our pack alone is hundreds in number. But- to make his birthday even more exciting, I went to the extent of sending invitations to some of his old buddies. From what I gather, Ricky was so advanced in his studies, along with a group of other alphas that they graduated high school a year and a half ahead of everyone. He was just sixteen when he graduated high school and finished college in just under three years, which gave him time to study for all of his alpha duties with ease.I get why he's so mature, he's always taken things so seriously. And by that- I mean ev
Third Person POVHunter looks at Leah with a side smirk, sure of himself for rejecting the woman standing before him. She was a beauty indeed, but he knew better than to fall for a pretty face and a gorgeous body with zero care for the world. "I do not accept your rejection," Leah says gritting her teeth and looking at him with anger. He leans closer seeing her hands fisting and body shaking in anger. "I don't think I asked if you wanted to reject me, woman. I will not," he says, speaking in his alpha tone, making her become fearful. She takes a step back seeing him so close, "And I repeat... I will not be stuck with a mediocre mate like you. Now you can either accept my rejection... or don't! I can give a rat's ass." he takes a step back, fisting his hands to try and control his wolf who is also fighting the thought of being stuck with her and her Wolf.There have been times when the human side of them will reject each other, but the wolf side of them will fight, feeling the pull o
LivieThe party began and I was pleased to see that for the most part, it seemed everything was going off perfectly. All of the guests were excited, and what made me feel even happier was the big smile on Ricky's face. It was a genuine smile, one that made me feel at ease. He introduced me to all of his old-school buddies and their mates. All of Ricky’s friends and their dates seemed so nice.My brother felt awkward at first, and yes, I know... He's still considered a rogue, but for tonight and while he is staying with us, under our protection, no one is allowed to touch him or anyone in his pack for that matter. Orders and threats by none other than my wonderful husband, Ricky, of course. And now that his friends know about our situation and met the real Rogue King, they also warned everyone to treat Brandon and his pack with respect.I don't know what is it about this guy, Hunter though. He looks scary, but he's extremely nice. But it gave me bad vibes when he had to step away to t
Third Person POVLeah was sure she had gotten away, but there was one little thing she had forgotten inside that little noggin of hers. While she enjoyed the new route she had tapped into that screen of hers to guide her toward her new destination, she forgot that the car was equipped with the most updated software and tracking program. Alarick and Skylar were tracking her every move, and the alliance with Hunter had come with its benefits. He had notified authorities about Leah and asked them to work in secrecy until she came close to the borders of the new country she was migrating to in hopes of new beginnings."She just used her new card in a convenience store to fill for gas," Tate says as he looks at the screen of the laptop in front of him. "Where is she now?" Skylar asks as he bites his fingernail nervously. "Just a bit into Detroit, sir," Tate says, looking between Skylar and Hunter. "Look. Do you really need to go after her? I mean, the girl has gone far enough, and from a
Third Person POVLeah makes it to the small motel, and checks in. She's given a small dingy room. It smells dirty and dingy, and the place obviously lacked a lot of maintenance. But it would do for now. She just needed a few hours of sleep before being on her way again. But as she slept, a noise from outside awoke her. Her Wolf senses and heightened hearing were making her aware something was wrong. She looks out the window and sees two men running quickly, jumping into a car and speeding off. When she looked over to the other side in the opposite direction of where they were running, she realized they had just broken into her car. "No, no, no, no, NO!!!" she runs outside quickly, and sees her trunk open, her car door opened and her car door handle broken. "No... Fucking assholes!" she yells, frustratingly. She had only taken one small bag out to change while she rested, along with the purse with all the cash she had just stolen from Skylar, leaving the rest behind in the car. She r
Livie"This can't be good. Did you check and make sure it wasn't her? Yeah, I know this is bad, but you gotta check... damn it! OK, I'll talk to the council. I'm sure they can take care of this." I sat at the edge of Ricky's desk, listening to him talk over the phone with Hunter. There had been an accident on their way to look for Leah. couldn't quite listen, because Hunter was sure to speak low, and Ricky also had his volume at its lowest. Both of them have very sensitive hearing, and can probably hear what is happening a mile away, if not more.He hangs up the phone, frustrated, and sighs with his head hanging. "Is everything okay?" I asked, placing my hand on his shoulder. He wraps his hand around my waist and pulls me onto his lap. "No. Just when we had Noah, he disappeared on us again, and now I need to go and take care of another incident caused by Leah. Damn it, babe! This girl is going to expose our world and all because of her stupid actions." he says, making me worried as
Third Person POV"You won't be long, will you?" Livie asked Ricky over the phone as they parked the car and turned off the engine. "No, baby. I just need to take care of a few little things while Hunter is away with Skylar. I'll be back before dinner, I promise." "Ok. Oh, and Ricky?" "Yes, love?" "Why don't you ask Hunter to come over for dinner? I have a few things I wanted to talk to you two about," she says nonchalantly. "Uhm. Okay, sure. I'll let him know. But I'm not sure if he will be home tonight, babe." "Just... tell him. Ok?" she asks, sounding a little irritated. She had been on edge lately, and the last he wanted was to irritate his Luna. "Ok, baby. I'll make sure we're both back before dinner." "Great. See you then," she replies a little enthusiastically before hanging up.Brandon, Zane, and Ricky got out of the car, a little too pumped up and ready for what they were about to do. They placed Noah inside a ring and forced him to put on gloves and face each one of th
LivieI paced back and forth as I waited for my father-in-law to come back home. Ricky acted far too strange on me, and I just knew something was up. It didn't take me much digging. It was quite simple actually. All I had to do was talk to Margot. Zane keeps nothing from her. And when I mean nothing- I mean nothing. She knew what I was going at, and well... at first, she was adamant. She would not budge, but I knew how to make my little bird sing. I had Desiree help by what I knew Marogt could not resist. Books! Margot loves reading. Desiree was able to download hundreds of books for free on her device, all free! And I mean books that would normally have to pay at least twenty bucks or more to read. My little bird sang like the biggest Canary. But I was pissed. How could my brother and Ricky keep this from me? I had no choice but to tell my father-in-law what was happening. If the council found out about this, they would be in so much trouble. The car stopped in front of the pa
