Eda

I sit by myself in my room. I feel frustrated and numb. Even though it’s dinner time, I’m unaffected by hunger. My mind continues to race as I think about Osborn.

After being kissed like that… I don’t know if I could live without him. I truly want to believe that I would be able to be happy with just Peelle, but I don’t know if that’s true.

Peelle gives me everything I could want; he’s the sweet best friend type of guy and I know he cares deeply for me. Meanwhile, Osborn is the closed off one that seems to be brewing with dominance and passion.

There’s a knock on my door and I’m not surprised by the scent of cinnamon. It’s Peelle.

I open the door and force a smile, but he can see right through me. He asks, “Are you okay?”

I nod, “I’m fine, Peelle.”

He crosses his arms and I notice the ripples of his muscles underneath his shift. He says sternly, “I don’t believe you.”

I breathe out as I shake my head, “I don’t want to talk about it.”

“Then, let’s not talk. How about we go for a wa

    EdaMy mother smiles as she says, “You are mated to the Alpha of the Scarlet Pack? You are mated to Evan and Claudia’s son?”I bite my tongue, so I don’t correct her by saying ‘son’s’ it’s bad enough that she knows that Osborn is my mate.She shakes her head as she lets out an unhinged laugh. She then opens the door and calls out, “Master Wraith! Master Wraith!”There’s a pit in my stomach as I watch the door to see him come in. He looks annoyed already. He looks at me like I’m the dirt on the bottom of his shoes. My mother says, “Master, she is mated to the Alpha. She can help us get our hands on a true elf.”His smile grows wide, and he says, “I always knew you would be good for something. We’ll send her and the girl on their way. Eda, we will be watching you. Make sure to give us an opportunity to get the Alpha out on his own.”My eyes flicker between my mother and Master Wraith. I know I can’t argue with him if I do it will only cause pain for either me or Alita. I nod my head slo

    PeelleI’m so relieved that Eda is okay. I bring her up to her room and she says she wants to take a shower, so I told her I’d get some food and drinks for her.In reality, I want to take this moment to talk with Osborn. His kiss shocked all of us and I really need to speak with him before I have a night with Eda.After her disappearance, I knew that I wanted to mark her. I need to make sure that she is mine and that I’ll always have a way to communicate with her.I walk to his room and knock on the door. He doesn’t answer immediately, he knows it’s me and he doesn’t know if he wishes to speak with me at the moment.Finally, he says, “Come in.”I walk in and say, “I’d like to speak to you, brother.”“I don’t know why I kissed her.” He says without me even needing to ask. I stand with my hands behind my back as I watch him. He walks around his room slowly as he says, “All this time, I thought I wouldn’t be able to trust her and then… suddenly, I realized I was wrong.”Osborn turns to f

    EdaThe morning comes, my eyes open as I stare at the ceiling. There’s a heavy arm draped over me, and the scent of cinnamon fills the air. My heart stops as I remember what we did.My hand instinctively touches my neck and my eyes clench shut. Shit. How could I have let this happen?Peelle is sweet and perfect and everything I wanted in a mate. But I just put his life in danger. If Master Wraith finds out that Peelle wears my mark, he won’t hesitate to capture him.Peelle pulls me closer to him and breathes in deeply and he’s half asleep as he murmurs, “Goddess, you smell divine.”I don’t respond. I don’t think he knows that I’m awake.I could always come clean. I could tell Peelle about my mother and Master Wraith and their plans. I’m sure that Peelle would find a way to forgive me and help me. But… Osborn. If Osborn found out I bet that he wouldn’t hesitate on kicking me out of the pack because I’ve put him and his family in danger.I want to scream, there’s no good way out of this

    AlitaEveryone seems to forget the fact that I can read their minds. I know what’s going on with Eda, as much as she tries to hide it.I don’t think I should interfere, it’s not my place. She has good intentions and she doesn’t want to go back or go along with Master Wraith’s plans.Osborn and Eda are finally getting close. They go on runs together daily and for the most part they seem to enjoy one another’s company. There are times when they come home and they’re both irritated with the other one, but overall… they seem happy.Peelle and Eda are in perfect bliss with one another. Neither of them ever get upset by the other, the only issue they seem to have is the lingering guilt that Eda feels since she hasn’t told him the truth.I hope that Eda and Osborn will be able to work everything out. They both have a darkness about one another, and I think they could easily be too alike and repel one another, but if they learn how to work together they could be a great pairing.I don’t know

    EdaMy ears are ringing when I wake up. I blink rapidly as my eyes try to adjust to the light and I look around to see Osborn on the ground beside me.I move over to his side and see that he has a black eye that can’t heal because of the poison they’ve used. I wonder if they took a cheap shot while he was unconscious or if he woke up and tried to fight.The door opens, but we’re in a cell. I look up to see one of the workers that I recognize. He smiles when he sees me awake and says, “You did a great job, Eda, Master Wraith is proud of you.”I hear Osborn’s voice and it’s deep yet it wavers when he asks, “What does that mean?”I turn towards him, his eyes are blazing with fury and I can hear the worker suck in air between their teeth and then the door shuts as he leaves the room.My body is frozen as I stare at Osborn. He pushes himself up off of the ground and stands, towering over me, as he states, “You betrayed me.”My breathing is heavy as I say, “I can explain.”He growls, “You b

    EdaI have never felt pain like the kind I felt with whatever injection my mom put in my neck. It was like lava filled my bloodstream making my entire body want to burst from the heat.I can’t focus on what’s being said between Osborn and Master Wraith, I’m in too much shock. Master Wraith calls me a ‘good girl’ and then he and my mother leave the room. My legs can’t hold my weight anymore and I crumble to the ground.Osborn walks out of the cell and I wonder when it got unlocked. He looks at me, his eyebrows furrowed, his mouth in a deep frown, and yet, he leans down and picks me up. My head falls against his chest and for a moment I feel safe.The steady sound of his heartbeat helps me to relax. The sound of his footsteps echoes as he leaves the building and walks toward the Scarlet Pack.He asks, “Is that where they stay?”I shake my head no, “They change locations frequently. Now that you know about this one it is likely that they’ll never come back to it.”His lips press together

    AlitaThings are incredibly tense around the pack house.Osborn wants to pretend that Eda doesn’t exist, and her health is deteriorating slowly but it becomes more obvious each day. Mom and I have tried to help heal her, but it’s like she’s immune to our elf healing abilities.Peelle and Osborn are on bad terms… Peelle doesn’t want Eda to die, but Osborn refuses to contact any of our elven family to get their blood. Eda tries to speak with Osborn, but he ignores her existence.All I know is that without Master Wraith getting what he wants, Eda will die. We can’t lose her. There has to be a way to save her.I’ve tried to talk to my parents about everything, but they say that Osborn, Peelle, and Eda need to figure this one out and they will only intervene if one of them asks for help.EdaEvery day I feel weaker than the last.

    PeelleEda didn’t come back to our room last night. I knew she wanted to speak with Osborn and for a while I was concerned that they would get into an argument. But I felt it the moment that he marked her.It’s an odd feeling but it’s like her being marked by both of us created a bond between the three of us.I hope when I see them this morning that things will be okay. It would break my heart if she was upset over the marking or if he randomly decided that he didn’t want to be with her.I walk downstairs and see that Alita and my parents are already at the dining table. Mom looks at me curiously and I know she wants to ask where Eda is because Eda is normally with me, but today she isn’t and that’s unusual.I notice her scent first and it has changed as it has now mingled with my brother’s. I can hear his soft chuckle and their footsteps as they come downstairs. My shoulders suddenly relax as I let go of the tension that I didn’t realize I was carrying.I turn towards the door, and I

    AlitaMy eyes snap open and I take in a sharp breath.Everything suddenly flooded into my mind. Being taken from the party for Osborn, Peelle, and Eda, the brain washing ritual, all the time I started figuring things out and Aamon would drug me again.Everything. Every single little detail of my life came back.I grind my teeth together in anger. I’m ready. It’s time for Aamon to die.I slip out of Mateo’s grip and thankfully he’s in such a deep sleep that he doesn’t notice me leave. The house is quiet, no one is awake, but still, I am careful as I sneak out to the cell. I walk into Aamon’s room, and he looks surprised to see me but then he notices my prominent baby bump and says, “Oh my goddess, our baby looks like it’s cooking great! How are you feeling love?”I hiss, “I am not your love!” I huff as I try to regain my composure. I don’t want him to think of me as a small hot-headed child. No, I will be cold and calculated with my actions.I look at him and say in a cold voice, “I g

    AlitaI can’t stop staring at Mateo and I notice he hasn’t released his breath since he asked if I believe him. I slowly nod my head; I do believe him. The tingles, the sparks, his scent, and the overwhelming desire to be with him made it obvious. He is my mate.I force myself to stand up. Mateo holds his arm out, helping to steady me. I look down at Aamon who is watching me curiously. I’m overwhelmed by the emotions and tears threaten to fall down my face and in a choppy voice I ask, “What the hell is going on? You clearly aren’t my mate.”His lips are pressed into a line, and he shakes his head and then suddenly a laugh slips from his lips. His eyes flicker back to me, and he says, “You were so innocent and naïve and so easy to brainwash, dear.”Shock rushes through me and I don’t know how to respond. He shakes his head as he continues to chuckle and at this moment I realize that everyone has been telling the truth.This man… I’ve lived with him for a year… I thought that I loved h

    ClaudiaEverything comes rushing back to me as I stare at this son of a bitch. He has ruined my life and my family. He has harmed my children in so many ways and I want nothing more than for him to die.But then… he laughs at me and shakes his head. He snaps, “You don’t intimidate me, mutt!”Evan takes a step from behind me, and I can’t help but smirk, everyone is intimidated by my giant hulk of a man. But Aamon shakes his head, “What are you going to do? Hit me? You have questions for me, and I guarantee I won’t answer them just because you are trying to intimidate me.”Mateo asks, “Then what will make you answer?”He lifts his head up and gives a smirk, “They already know what I want.”Osborn steps forward, “You’re not getting the child.”He laughs, “Then I won’t fix her memory.”Osborn lets out a growl that feels like it shakes the whole room and Aamon looks at him and shakes his head, “I will fix her memory if I am guaranteed to leave with my child and no one attacks us.”Osborn r

    EdaOsborn paces around the living room and holds Faith. His constant movement helps soothe her while I feed Hope.We can’t believe that they were able to find Alita so fast. We know that Alita is different than she was before, but it doesn’t matter. She will finally be home.When the door opens Evan, Claudia, and Peelle come in and behind them is a pregnant Alita and a man we don’t know. My heart breaks for her knowing that the child inside her belongs to my disgusting biological father.Her eyes zero in on Osborn and then she looks at Peelle and she murmurs, “Huh.”Peelle says, “That’s our brother, Osborn, he’s the current Alpha of the Scarlet Pack.”Osborn walks over to her and repositions Faith in his arms and says, “Alita, I can’t believe your home.”She looks him up and down and Peelle takes Faith from his arms and walks over to me to give me a kiss. I notice the confused look on Alita’s face and she asks, “So, you’re both with her?”We all nod our heads and she asks, “And who a

    PeelleI feel bad for Mateo whenever Alita wakes up. They knocked her out and we went on our way back onto our private plane to head home. She’ll wake up at some point during this flight and when she does, I guarantee it’s not going to be pretty.Mom sits near her and plays with her hair and will randomly make remarks about how happy she is that we finally found her.I ask Mateo, “Do you know how far along she is?”He shakes his head, “She didn’t talk to me much. We were more like acquaintances. If I had to guess I would say four months… maybe five.”Mom says, “Her baby is going to be so close to the girl’s age.”I nod in acknowledgement and Mateo says, “You have kids?”“Twins, my brother and I have the same mate and we had our girls, Hope and Faith, five months ago.”“That’s amazing. I wonder if Alita is pregnant with one or two.”“How do you feel about her pregnancy?” I ask as I try to feel him out. He knows she’s pregnant, will he be there for her even though she is carrying some o

    MateoI lie Alita’s body down on the bed in the guest room we gave her. I breathe out as I watch her chest move up and down with her steady breathing. I need to make sure that whatever Sofia gave her was safe, I want no harm coming to her or the baby. Even though I understand that she’s struggling, I’m having a hard time with Alita.Her whole life has been turned upside down, but she won’t even consider what we’re trying to tell her.I get it, I do, I’m sure we sound like a bunch of crazy people to her. But there must be some way to get her to remember her old life. But… is that what’s best for her? Knowing that she’s been playing house with the man who kidnapped her?I groan as I leave her room. I need to go downstairs and talk with her family and explain everything that happened on our end and maybe they could explain some things that don’t make sense to us.As I come into the living room her parents, Evan and Claudia, and her brother, Peelle all look at me. I breathe out and say, “

    MateoI had dinner with Alita, and it was wonderful. It doesn’t matter if she has accepted me or not, just being in her presence is more than enough.I need to talk to Lorenzo and Sofia and see what we should do with her though.Should I tell her about the missing person notice? Or should we wait until her family gets here?I leave her so that she can rest, and my wolf is antsy inside my mind. He wants to come out and mark her, he’s ready to know that she is 100% ours now and forever.When I walk into the room both Lorenzo and Sofia look at me. Sofia asks, “How is she doing?”“She’s… antsy. She’s ready to get home to her ‘mate’.” I scoff, it’s hard to even think of another man being her mate. Having a relationship with her the way only I should be able to have.Sofia looks at me sympathetically and says, “I think she’s been brainwashed, Mateo. I think she truly believes that man is her mate. If she is this missing girl… it’s the only thing that makes sense. Otherwise, why wouldn’t she

    PeelleFinally, we’re going to find Alita. I know things have changed, I know she’s different now, but my heart leaps for joy knowing that soon she will be home and safe.I’m glad I packed last night and enjoyed my time with Eda. While my mom and I were busy packing, my dad and brother were searching for packs near Venice.Dad found the Verona Pack and has some connections with them because of business. He sent in the request to stay there and although we haven’t heard back from them yet, but we decided to head out anyway. Worse comes to worst then we’ll stay in a hotel, it’s not like we can’t afford it.We say our goodbyes to Osborn, Eda, and the girls and we get on the plane to go find Alita. I hope that the bond we have built over these years will help guide me in finding her.MateoI think that Sofia was right and that Aurora, if that’s her real name, is actually a missing person. It makes a lot of sense and so I have been looking through the missing person reports that we have re
