Kristy POV. It is almost dark when I hear Axel's car pull up in the driveway. My grandmother is still here. I have been nervous all day. I am pregnant. I don't know how to tell him. I don't know if I have ever been this scared before. What if he doesn't want it? We have a lot on our minds right now. I wish my mom was here or Olivia. I don't feel like I have anybody here. I know I have Axel and my grandmother. I am grateful for them, but it is not the same. The pack members are family, but I don't have any friends here. I don't have anybody to turn to. Not like how I can with Olivia. She would always cheer me up or distract me from all the shit that is going on. I miss her so much. Now we are divided. I did not imagine that I would ever be without her. We were supposed to share everything. When the time would come that we would have children, they were supposed to grow up together and be best friends, just like us. I would have been the first female Alpha of the pack, and she would
POV. Kristy.Summer has come to an end. This is my last school year. Unlike my classmates, I am not studying for a job. Being the alpha's daughter, I am next in line for Alpha. Standing outside the big white building with my bag over my shoulder. Teenagers laugh and catch up with each other about their summer. Seems like a normal school, right? Only we are all werewolves. We have our own community. A pack.In the corner of my eye, I see someone waving with excitement. I turn around and see Olivia. My best friend. She runs up to me, hugging me. “Long time no see," she says. Olivia is a tall blonde. She is Delta’s daughter. “Ready?” she asks, looking at me with frowning eyebrows. I am still staring at the big white building. “Yes, let's do this,” I say, while I straighten my back. I let a deep breath go.We walk into the school building, where the halls are filled with laughing and chatting teenagers. Everyone moves aside as we walk by. Since I am the
Matthias walks over to me. I am backed up against my locker, still in my towel. He slaps his hand next to my head against a locker. He looks down at me. “You embarrassed me" he growls. “Ah, you angry you couldn’t win from a girl boohoo,” I say in a mocking voice making tears with my hands against my eyes. He slams the locker with his hand coming closer with his face towards mine. “You’ll be my mate. Mark my words. I won’t be tolerating this behavior once I am alpha". “Ha, right" I laugh at him. “ I am scared already” I fake shiver and turn around to get dressed. “Now get lost I need to get dressed,” I tell him waiting for him to leave. He growls at me and leaves. I hear his heavy footsteps walk out the doors. I put my long dark brown hair in a ponytail and put my shorts and shirt on.When I walk out of the shower building I see my dad waiting for me.“I’ll give you a ride home.” He says leaving no room for an argument.The ride home is quiet. Driving
POV Axel.I stare at her as she disappears into the Forrest. Finally, I have found my mate. But she is Jack’s freaking daughter. Why her? I ask myself as I walk back home. What was she doing on our side of the border anyway? And why would she think I am a rogue wolf?I walk through the back door and I am headed to the kitchen. As I walk into the kitchen I see my beta Hunter with a pack of milk in his mouth. “What happened to you,” he asks almost choking on the milk. “Nothing, shouldn’t you be in bed?” I reply while opening the fridge looking for something to drink.“Says who?” Hunter repliesHe has a point. Hunter is my beta and also my best friend. Basically a brother. His parents died when he was 8 years old. My parents took him in like he was their own. We grew up together.“So are you going to tell me what happened?” He asks staring at me as I pour a glass of orange juice. “Fine," I tell him knowing he won’t give up until I tell him what had happened.
POV Kristy. I arrive at school. I walk through the hallways searching for Olivia. I need to find her and tell her what happened. I need to tell someone, I don’t know what to do. I walk into the girl's bathroom. There she is, finally.“There you are I have been looking all over for you. I need to tell you something.” I tell her as I check to see if there is anybody else in the bathroom. Olivia looks confused. “I found my mate.” I whisper, still afraid someone will hear us. “O my god! That’s amazing who is it!?”“Shhh.. not so loud it’s not that amazing. It’s Alpha Axel.” “Alpha Axel? What. Why. How did you find out?” Olivia askes confused.I tell her everything that happened last night.“Your dad is going to kill you. Or him. Or both.”“I know. What should I do? Obviously, I can’t tell him.”“But if you don’t tell him you found your mate, he will let Matthias mark you.”Shivers run down my spine at the thought alone. No, I don’t want that either.
It’s getting dark outside. I am waiting for my dad to go to bed. I can hear his footsteps walk over to my room. He stops at my door and locks it. Are you serious right now? Did he really just lock me up in my own bedroom?It’s fine I can climb out of the window just need to figure out how I am going to get back inside my room. I knot 2 sheets together. On one side I tie around my desk in front of my window. On the other side, I hang outside of my window. It’s just like in the movies. I hope this works. I wait a few minutes to make sure my dad is asleep. I try to mind link, Axel. “Are you still awake?” I ask him. “Yes, I am. I am already here waiting for you.” He replies. “Okay I am coming now” “Alright see you in a bit. Be careful.”I Cut the link and grab an extra set of clothes. I put them in a bag. ‘Will you carry these for me?’ I ask Vicky. ‘Of course’ she replies. I jump out of the window and head straight for the forest. I dug behind some bush and wait a
Vicky runs through the forest. Jumping over fallen trees. Sometimes it feels like we’re flying. She is so fast. Her paws are so light on the ground barely making noise. As we get closer to home Vicky slows down. Then suddenly, she stops. Her ears are on high alert and she sniffs the air. “What’s going on?” I ask her. When the smell hits me too. My dad's patrols, they are not far from us. “If we can smell them. They can smell us” Vicky says and she doesn’t hesitate one second before rolling herself into the dirt. “Wait, what are you doing? Now we need to shower.”“ I am masking our scent idiot. Just like you did last time. We have Axel scent all over us we have to shower anyway. You want to get caught and have dad kill us? I don’t”I roll my eyes at her knowing she has a point. Vicky dugs behind a big bush when the smell of the patrol gets stronger. Looking through the bush waiting for them to pass us. I can feel my heartbeat faster as they come closer. We can s
POV AxelWaking up this morning I feel reborn. I haven’t felt this kind of happiness in a long time. Ever since my mom died my dad has been very depressed. It gave me a lot of pressure as a young kid. I was 14 when my mom died. Not long after that, my dad died of cancer, making me an orphan and alpha at the age of 16. It was a lot to take in. I was still grieving and had the responsibility of the whole pack on my shoulders. My father was a great leader and I wanted to do right by him.I get dressed and walk downstairs headed to the kitchen. A warm smell of fresh pancakes hits my nose. Hmm, my stomach growls at the scent. I walk into the kitchen where Hunter and his mate Ester are. Ester making the pancakes and Hunter stuffing his face. “Morning beautiful people,” I say while I grab a pancake sitting down at the dining table. Hunter gives me a weird look.“You’re oddly in a good mood?” Hunter sniffs the air looking up and down at me.“It’s really you. Only you’re happ

Axel POV I wake up in the middle of the woods. It is still dark outside, I have no idea what time it is. I look down and I am completely naked covered in mud. Onyx must have had his fun in the woods. I look around and notice that I am close to home. I feel drops falling on my face. It is starting to rain, of course. It starts with a few drops, the leaves on the trees hold back the rain a little bit. I look up and regret it instantly because it starts to rain as if the gates have opened and someone threw a bucket of water on earth. I make a run for it and quickly get inside. I go to the first level, to one of the bedrooms. I don't want to wake Kristy up. I turn on the shower and quickly hop in. After washing myself I walk over to the laundry room. Luckily there are some clothes in the dryer. Jeans and a sweatshirt but no socks. Do I risk going upstairs and potentially waking up Kristy? No, I guess no socks today. I quickly get dressed and go outside back to the clinic to get my car
Axel POV.It is currently still dark. I wake up from someone shouting my name. I look next to me and Kristy is fast asleep. I walk up to the window but I see nothing."Axel" I hear again. I look over to Kristy but she has not moved an inch."Alpha!" Then it hits me that I am being mind linked. I rub my face trying to wake up."Yes?" I reply still standing in front of the window."I have something. I needed to contact you when I found something in Hunter's blood. Can you come to the lab?" Now I realize that it is Dr. Spine that is contacting me. What time is it? I walk over to my side of the bed and grab my phone to look at the time. It is 4.30 A.M. "Dr. Spine do you have any idea what time it is?" "I know Alpha and I apologize for waking you up. I would not contact you if it could not wait until the morning. I have been working all night and finally found something. You need to see this for yourself.""Fine, I am up already now. I will meet you in the lab." I close the link and put
Kristy POVI wake up to an empty bed. I reach for my phone on the nightstand and look at the time. 1 P.M. SHIT! It is already noon and I am still in bed. I rush out of bed to my closet and grab the first thing I see. A pair of purple leggings with a blue sweatshirt. doesn't really match but who cares. I rush downstairs and notice the Alpha house is completely empty. Axel is not in his office and not in the kitchen or living room. I put the kettle on to make some tea. In the meantime, I try to mindlink Axel but he blocks me out. I walk up to the refrigerator to grab some milk when I notice a note stuck on the refrigerator. "I will be back before dark xx" I sigh, take the note off the refrigerator, and put it in the trash can. Is he for real? A note? What is he up to now? Why so suspicious 'Will be back before dark' What is that supposed to mean? Why not let me know where he went? How long has he been gone for? My own mind is starting to drive me crazy with all these questions I am as
Jack POV. I feel lost. I want my daughter to be save. I want to be in control of her safety. She doesn't know half of what is going on in this world and I don't know how to tell her. I tried everything. I really thought she would have stayed. She came by herself against the will of her mate. She is strong. No one can go against their Alpha's orders, not even a mate. They outrank each other, An Alpha's order overpowers a Luna's order and her will. She has no option but to obey. But somehow she did get away. I sit in my office thinking about everything I did to get her back. Thinking about other ways but I am out of ideas at this point. Maybe, just maybe she changes her mind. I hear a knock on my door and look up. My Beta Rick is in the door opening. "Am I interrupting? " "No, come in. Sit down" I point to the empty chair in front of my desk and he sits down. "Any word from Kristy?" "No nothing yet. It has only been a few days." "Have you tried contacting her? Their Beta has chang
Kristy POVI wake up and rub my eyes when I notice that it is dark. How long have I been asleep? What time is it? I grab my phone from the nightstand, and my screen's brightness blinds me. I squeeze my eyes trying to lower the brightness but I can barely see anything. I swipe left and right hoping I get it right. Finally, I get it, that is so much better even though I still see stars. I look at the time, 1 AM?! I have been asleep all day. I look next to me and see that Axel has joined me in bed and is still asleep. I get up and notice I fell asleep in my towel. I walk to my closet and grab some underwear and pajamas to put on before I go downstairs. I walk to the kitchen and turn on the kettle to myself some tea. My stomach starts to growl. I haven't eaten all day. I open the fridge and look for something to eat. Nothing, at least nothing that I am craving at the moment. I open the pantry and look around, but also nothing. The kettle starts to whistle and I grab a cup and a tea bag o
Axel POVI watch her leave and wait until I hear the car drive away to make sure she left. "You had something you wanted to discuss with me, Alpha?" Dr. Spine asks."Yes, Kristy's father said something about the wicked wolf not recognizing anyone but his maker. Have you read anything about that in the books?" "Not that specific no, but I will look into it. The pack of Alpha Theo has a big library I will try to get in contact with them to see if they can help provide any books that might help. With your permission, of course, Alpha.""Yes, do that. We need all the information we can get. Also, Jack showed us an empty syringe with a needle. He injected Hunter with something to turn him. Is there a way you can maybe find out what he was injected with?""I can take some of his blood and run some tests to see if it is still in his blood, try to find out what was in it." I nod in agreement and Dr. Spine walks over to some cabins behind the surgical table in the basement and opens a drawer
"Dad?" I slide down from Onyx's back to face my father. My heart is pounding in my chest not knowing his next move. Is going to take me back? Or is he going to kill my mate and Hunter? Or both?"You seem a little surprised to see me?" He says with a smile on his face. Onyx growls and shows his teeth, making my father laugh harder."Ooooh," He says laughing in Onyx's face." Do you think I am afraid of you? Ha, look around you, Axel! LOOK! You are outnumbered."Onyx growled again and I could feel his and Axel's rage through the bond. I quickly go to stand in between them before they rip each other's heads off. " What do you want dad? I thought you said" I stumble over my words. He said he loved me and now he is laughing at my face. A feeling of betrayal runs over me, it makes me feel sick to my stomach."I meant what I said, Kristy." He says turning all his attention towards me."But really Kristy, not once you have stopped to think to yourself it was a little too easy to get away? Do
Kristy POVI wake up to something licking my face. Argh, I don't want to get up. Let me sleep. I turn my face away. My whole body feels sore. Why do I feel so sore? It almost feels like I went to boot camp or run a marathon. Then the licking continues on my stomach. Oh, my goddess that tickles! "Make it stop!" I giggle out loud trying to turn away."Kristy we have to go. Get up." I hear Axel's voice through the mind link.I instantly open my eyes. "Axel?" I say out loud in disbelief and then it all starts to come back to me. The heat the se."Yes now let's go. We don't have much time. I am taking you home." He says through the mind link interrupting my thoughts. I look up at Onyx who is standing over me and has his giant face 2 inches away from mine. Impatiently waiting for me to get up. He pushes his nose against my shoulder. "Well, you will have to get off me Onyx if you want me to get up. I can't get up with you standing over me you are in my way." I tell him while waving my ha
