Waking up I feel the warmth of Dax's body against mine just like it is every morning. I lay there and remember that I was meeting Sue for a coffee this morning, so I throw my arm out of the covers and feel around for my phone off the bedside table and open on eye to look at the time. Seeing that I had just over an hour to meet her I snuggle back in to Dax for twenty more minutes before slowly getting out of the bed so I don't wake Dax and get ready to go.
Before I set off I kiss Dax, he wakes up and grabs me to stop me from going. I give him one more kiss and then struggle my way out of his arms."Let me go, I'm going to meet Sue.""Fine then, I suppose I better get up anyway loads to do today as usual." He lets me go with another kiss."I'll be back soon to help out.""No rush take your time.""Love you.""Love you too."I walk out and now being a bit late I pick up the pace a little bit.I open the door to the out usual coffee shop. I gFeeling that betrayal again, it was not a good feeling at all and it was not one I ever wanted to feel again."Sue" I said stupidly like she was someone else when she was stood right in front of me."How stupid you are, thinking I was your friend. Thinking I was one of your protectors when in fact I was one causing you the most harm.""You haven't done anything to me you stupid bitch." I say to her before I could keep my mouth closed, I couldn't help getting mad. Last time I just hung there and let it happen to me and I wasn't going to let that be the case this time." Oh you think that is correct? Well I have news for you I was the reason mummy dearest was taken. So I'm the reason she is dead." She paused for a second and then continued with" Well you are the real reason she is dead just like so many people in the pack will be soon enough and it is all your fault. I hope you have Dax a real nice goodbye this morning as it's the last one you will
My story at the beginning is probably the same for what it is for a lot of people.I have a Mum, a Dad and two older brothers who are called Richard and Riggs, they were and are all very over protective of me. You see all my family were really really strong wolves, but not me I seemed to trip over my own feet. A few months back I literally broke my toe coming down the stairs I'm that clumsy, thanks to my wolf healing though it didn't take long to get back to normal. It hurt like a bitch though.We did normal family things together ate tea together, watched films and had family holidays together and were all a very close family that is until we lost our Dad and my Mum lost her mate.We lost him just over a year ago and it is one of the hardest things I have ever had to deal with in my life. I miss him everyday and something always reminds me of him. He died during a battle against some vampires that had tried to get onto our land, my Dad was one of th
"Hello."It was Dax the son of the Alpha. I wonder what he was doing here. Like I said before no one ever bothers me here. I guess I was wrong."Hello, what are you doing here?" I asked maybe a little too snarky."Wow all I did was walk to my spot and your talking to me like that, what did I do to deserve your disdain already?" He said with a grin on his face."Sorry, I had come to my spot for some peace and didn't expect anyone to bother me.""I accept your apology, and this is my spot too and normally no one is here when I am either."I just look at him, seeing him this close in person just makes my mouth drool. He is tall, broad shouldered, with brown hair and beautiful hazel eyes. No woman or man for that matter would be crazy not to either fancy him or want to be him.He had never paid any attention to me before now though, as I was the weak child and not one designed for fighting, so would have been no interest to th
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY" was yelled and it startled me awake. My Mum and my brother's were stood at the side of where me, Lisa and Benji fell asleep.I groggily see through my half open eye. "Nope not my birthday for a few more hours of sleep." I manage to jumble out. As Lisa tells us to shut up she is getting her beauty sleep. Benji sits up. My brother laugh and start throwing pillows at me and Lisa, it turns into a huge pillow fight me and Lisa are definitely awake now. My Mum, Richard and Riggs join us on the floor with a few prezzies in their hands. They pass them to me, I unwrap the one from my Mum and it is my favourite set of books. My brothers got me some make up and perfume. Lisa gets up and gets me a gift from her bag, I open it and it is the most beautiful necklace. It is a tear drop with the most beautiful colour of blue. Benji gives me his and it is matching earing to the necklace. I hug them all loving my gifts, kn
I grabbed hold of Lisa and Benji's arm."He's here." I say"Who is?" Benji asks dumbly, before realising I meant my mate.I start walking through the crowds of people trying to find him. When I think I spot him I must be mistaken. No no it couldn't be. He turns to look at me with shock in his eyes aswell. Shanaya holds on to his arm."Dax where are you going?" she asks as he starts walking towards me.Then she see's what is happening."No you are mine, you are not mated to this mongrel. You deserve the best, you deserve me." Her ramblings landed on deaf ears as Dax pulled his arm out of hers and walked closer to me.Lisa and Benji looked just as shocked as I do."Rory are you sure it is Dax?" I nod to herLisa and Benji release me so I can walk to Dax.We stand in front of each other just looking at each other."I never thought my mate would be you." I say to him
DAX POV Growing up has always been a mixture of tough but great. Being the son of the Alpha and the next Alpha of this pack meant I had certain expectations made of me. I had to start training not just on the fighting, but on how to run the pack and the pack businesses as soon as I was old enough to walk. I first started feeling the fever of my first turn when I was just ten, that is one of the youngest in history. Which means more was expected from me, they said I would be one of the strongest Alpha's we have ever had. By the time I was sixteen I was already taller than my Dad and had more muscles aswell, my Dad get's more and more excited the bigger and stronger I get. We were a close family and then the worst thing to ever happen to me, a few years ago we got the best news my Mum was pregnant and me and my Dad was so excited, but during the labour major complications happened and the bleeding wouldn't stop and even though she was a wolf she couldn't recover
AURORA'S POV Waking up, I was so sore everything seemed to be hurting. I try to open my eyes but my right one doesn't seem to want to follow the left one and remains closed. I try to sit up but then some hands hold me down, I look and there is Dax seeing him makes a tear spill from my eyes. What would he think of such a weak mate? "Do not cry Aurora, you will be fine, you will fully heal within the next day or so, but at the minute you have a few broken ribs and leg so try not to move too much. Do you remeber what happened or who/ what did this to you?" I don't want to answer him just yet so I just shake my head. Tilly is talking to me now, "Tell him, tell our mate he will help." "I don't know it was his ex that did this to us." "Yes but he is our mate now not hers." I wish I could share her optimism. "I don't want him to think he has made the wrong decision in choosing us over her." That made her quiet.
After they made sure that I was OK by myself at home, they left with a kiss to the cheek. I couldn't help wishing for my wolf to come through soon, I need to turn so hopefully I will get a bit stronger so I can kick Shanya's arse all on my own. That was now my goal. I didn't want to have to run to Dax, this was my fight I was not backing down for the likes of her. If I don't turn soon, I would just have to hope the training we get will toughen me up. I must have fallen asleep not long after as I woke up to ten missed calls on my phone and a few txt's. "You ok Rory? How you doing?" "Hello, you ok?" "RORY ANSWER YOUR PHONE!!!" "Bitch don't make me come over there." "Your Mum answered the house phone told me you were asleep so ignore my previous message."All of these were from Lisa they made me laugh. I got just one from Benji asking me how I was the most w
Feeling that betrayal again, it was not a good feeling at all and it was not one I ever wanted to feel again."Sue" I said stupidly like she was someone else when she was stood right in front of me."How stupid you are, thinking I was your friend. Thinking I was one of your protectors when in fact I was one causing you the most harm.""You haven't done anything to me you stupid bitch." I say to her before I could keep my mouth closed, I couldn't help getting mad. Last time I just hung there and let it happen to me and I wasn't going to let that be the case this time."

Waking up I feel the warmth of Dax's body against mine just like it is every morning. I lay there and remember that I was meeting Sue for a coffee this morning, so I throw my arm out of the covers and feel around for my phone off the bedside table and open on eye to look at the time.

Sitting down with Richard and Riggs in front of me, I didn't know how to say the words to them. How do I tell them out Mum is dead and she is gone because she saved me so it is all my fault. Everything is my fault, everything that is going on with the pack, everyone dying lately and all the attacks it was all my fault and now I could feel the anger that my Mum was talking about before the elves turned bad. It might not be at the level yet but what if I turned evil and killed everyone. I just sat there with them looking at me waiting for me to tell them why I asked for them to meet me here. "Sis what is it? Just tell us please, I'm not liking the look on your face right now." Richard says to me. Dax squeezes my hand as he is sat in the seat beside me. I take a deep breath and as a tear falls from my eyes I say "Mum is gone." "What do you mean Mum is gone, where is she? Where has she gone?" Riggs asks. Richard just sits there in silence he knew what I meant. "Sorry Riggs but your
Dax threw me onto the ground with a hard landing and then covered me with his body to make sure I wasn't getting hit with the bullets that were flying all around us.As I lay there I could see our wolves getting hit and I wasn't liking this one bit, if they had silver knives the chances are they might have silver bullets, so our wolves wouldn't make it with a silver bullet inside them we would have a very short period of time to remove the bullet before the silver had spread too far in their body and then nothing we did would help them.No matter how good we are at fighting or how fast we are we couldn't win against silver bullets. I knew that this time there was no choice I had to do something I couldn't just lay here with everyone dying when I could do something about it.With Dax on top of me I would have to concentrate more than ever to make sure that he didn't get any of the blast on the way out of me to them. I lay there and closed my eye
I didn't want to leave my Mum behind, but the only chance I would have to get away could be now and my Mum died to save me I couldn't let that go to waste by staying with her and dying now.I had to wait for the silver to wear off so that I could mind link Dax until then I was now completely on my own.Giving her one last hug and kiss on the cheek, I stand up with tears in my eyes. I take one last look at her and head towards the door.I look out just a little to make sure there was no one there and all I see is one big hollow corridor with a small light coming from the end. I just hope that there is no one there and that it is the sun shining through and not just a light from someone down there.I make sure to take small quiet steps and try to make sure that I am not breathing too heavy, if there is any vampires or wolves here they would be able to hear me. I just keep walking and the light at the end is getting much bigger now."A..ora." I pause
No no, this couldn't be happening what the hell are they doing with my Mum. I froze not knowing what to do. I couldn't get free of the chains and I couldn't feel my wolf or my powers. I just had to sit there feeling useless waiting for them to leave us.Finally the footsteps disappeared and the door slammed and locked once more.I lift my head up and speak quietly not wanting whoever was in here to hear me and come back in."Mum....Mum!" Finally she started stirring."That's it Mum open your eyes for me."When she hears my voice again she wips her head up."Rory, no please say this is just a nightmare and that they don't have my baby locked in here with me.""Sorry Mum but this is real and we have to find a way out of here.""We aren't going to have much luck with that." She tells me." We can't give up already we need to fight with everything we have."" Look they have a small electric current running through our
After our amazing sex I start filling Dax in on everything my Mum had told us. He wasn't too pleased about all the lies, but he could understand why she did it.The next couple of week were spent just trying to sort everything out after the fight. Fix all the broken things around the pack lands and removing all the rubble and broken trees.More importantly we spent it helping the families that had lost someone and supporting those that had lost their mate as that was one of the hardest things to ever having to deal with, literally loosing the other part of your soul, no one could ever fully recover from that and most chose not to stay in this world.Lisa kept in contact with me now and we spoke a couple of times a week, she wouldn't tell me where she was as she knew that I would go see her and she didn't want me to get in trouble and she didn't want me to be too close to the vampires, as she didn't know if they all knew what I looked like or not.The more
After everything my Mum just told me, I couldn't believe it. Not only did she lie our whole lives about being an elf and not a wolf but she has now managed to drag Lisa into all this mess which could get Lisa killed.As I climb onto my bed and get comfortable, with the number in my hand I didn't know if I should call her or txt first. I pick up the phone and put her number into it and press call. It rings and rings and just when I was about to hang up thinking she wasn't going to answer she picks it up."Hi Rory.""Hi Lisa, how did you know it was me?"She chuckles and replies"You have had the same number for as long as I can remember so after all these years I know it."There was a few moments of silence, it felt weird to say she is my best friend and how long we have been friends for there has never been silence or awkwardness between us."Look Rory, I don't know what to say other than after everything I did, I wouldn't
I wake up to feel the warm of Dax's arms around me. For the first few seconds I forgot what had happened yesterday and then it all came flooding back to me. I needed to find out some answers today.I slowly pull one of his arms off me and creep out of the bed. I just into the shower and have a quick one wanting to get my day started. As I'm getting dressed I look at Dax who looks so peaceful when he is sleeping. I don't wake him up as I know he needs the sleep. He will be mad at me later for not waking him up though.I mind link Sue"You up for coming with me to a few places today.""Anytime, anywhere Luna." I roll my eyes at the Luna comment vowing to one day get her to call me Aurora or Rory and I tell her where to meet me.I write a quick note to Dax letting him know I was out and where I was going and that I have Sue with me so he wouldn't be worried about me.I meet Sue just around the corner from a coffee shop in town."What we
