I fiddled with the irritating mask that sat on my face as Asher and Nigel spoke with a bored-looking guard at the entrance to the Black Forest packgrounds.

Three days had passed. Three agonizing days of not having my child or my mate in my arms and finally it was the night of the ball.

Despite myself, I was feeling nervous about this whole thing. Now that I was here, I wasn't sure how I would go about getting Danica to come home with me.

As far as I knew, she still didn't remember me, and that meant she may not want to be with me. That thought alone sent shards of pain piercing into my heart. I couldn't and wouldn't let that happen, but I also didn't want to push her away.

As I struggled internally, Ash and Nigel motioned through and we were off.

Inside, the compound was decorated modestly with low glowing fairy lights and red ribbons, forming the venue area itself on the bare ground below.

Two tables sat on either side of the grounds holding food and drinks for all the guests that w

    [Mason's POV]Danica allowed me to lead her to the middle of the dance floor. As we moved, many eyes trailed us, and I could feel hostility trickling from the males of her father's pack who were clearly aiming to try to win her heart.Holding back my rage at another man even looking at my mate, I shot them a smirk. After all, I was the one she allowed to hold her hand for all to see."Having fun?" Danica sighed, catching me in the act. "If you want to cause trouble, you can leave.""No, no." I said quickly. "I only wish to dance with you."Stopping, I pulled her against me, letting my arms snake around her waist. Instantly I felt an overwhelming sense of relief as her warmth sank into me and my son's strong heartbeat drifted through the music that was filling my ears. "Too tight," Danica hissed, beginning to try to pull away."Whoops." Shit, I needed to remember that she didn't remember me. Otherwise, I feared I would push her away if I was too pushy."That's better." She sighed as

    [Danica's POV]February 2nd, 1980A year has passed since we were brought to this forsaken island, and Rosette has disappeared entirely. The caretakers insist she ran away, but given how skiddish in nature she is, I don't believe them. I fear that she may have died due to the rejection of the goddesses blood that they have been injecting us with.I've spoken with a few orphans that have been here for a while, and they finally gave me an understanding of this island. It is a secret camp that scientists are using to create super wolves and that we were all brought here to be part of that experiment.At first I didn't believe it, but after feeling the effects of the blood in my system firsthand, I can't deny it.For now, I am only subjected to injections since they start training us when we turn twelve. That means that I still have a year before my battle training starts too.I can only hope that I can find a way to escape by then. Otherwise, I fear I will end up just like Rosette.Letti

    [Mason's POV]Bright sunlight trickled into the small room around us, illuminating my love's serene sleeping face. Reaching out a hand, I touched her cheek, luxuriating in the warmth of her skin.As much as I wanted to stay like this, I needed to go.Today was the day. We would be traveling to the Arcadian Islands to retrieve Bryllie and bring her home where she belonged. After she was safe, we would deal with the traitorous harpies.Sitting up, I was careful to not jostle Danica awake. She needed all the sleep she could get. "Mmmm." Her warm voice murmured as her golden eyes fluttered open. "Mason?"A thrill rushed through me at my name on her lips. It still wasn't said quite the same as when she remembered me, but I was happy to have made it back to this point with her."Go back to sleep." I murmured, giving a smile. "I've got to go prepare my team."Danica and I had decided to go our separate ways with this, each taking one end of the island, so there was no chance for escape. Eve

"The grown-ups are doing a terrible job of finding Bryllie, so it is now up to us."I peeked around the corner of the building that Armond and I were currently hiding behind.Up ahead, Alpha Mason spoke with Luna Danica as everyone else present looked on. Despite extending my senses, I couldn't make out what they were talking about, but I knew they were wasting time.The large boat that arrived earlier could leave at any time, and once it did, there was no way that we would be able to get to where Bryllie was."Let's go." I ordered, jumping up.For a moment, Armond didn't move."Come on." I growled, looking towards the docks to see that the adults were moving. "We're going to miss the boat!"Reaching out, I grabbed Armond's arm and pulled, yanking him to his feet."But..." Armond gasped as I pulled him towards the boat. "What if it is dangerous!"I didn't bother responding. Of course,

    [Danica's POV]I moved silently through the forest around me, being sure not to step on any twigs or downed branches. So far, we were lucky enough to not run into anyone, and we were close enough to the mountains to see them through the trees.Sniffing the air, I managed to get a hint of a familiar scent. Flashes of Bryllie's smiling face popped into my mind, and then I knew it was her."Up ahead." I whispered to Dax, who was standing close beside me. "I can smell her.""Should we shift now?" One of the warriors accompanying us asked from behind."What do you think?" Dax asked, leaving all decisions to me."Yeah."It was best to make our move in our strongest of forms.Stepping behind a tree, I began to strip my clothes off and placed them in a pile on the ground for later.Getting on all fours, I began the shifting process, but stopped midway when I felt the dark presence that I had felt before in my wolf form."What?"

We had taken longer than needed to collect ourselves, thanks to Danica’s weakened state. Despite everyone’s insisting that we needed to go, I didn’t want to until I was sure that she was truly okay."Let’s go." I sighed, grabbing Desmond and Armond by the backs of their shirts. "I’m sure Rosalie and Ermella will give you both an earful when we return.""You didn’t tell our moms, did you?" Desmond demanded, shooting me a glare. "How could our great alpha be a snitch?""Mind your words." Chris huffed, smacking Desmond in the back of the head. "Do you have any idea how dangerous what you two did was?"For a moment, Desmond puffed out his cheeks and remained quiet, but by the time we were on the ship’s deck, he let out a long breath of air."We were worried about Bryllie." He said quietly."You what?" Bryllie chirped, appearing from behind Danica, who was already

It felt weird being somewhere that wasn't the Cove pack, but I was sure to inform Chris of my current situation. For the time being, he would take over as alpha until we could figure out Danica's situation and help her master her wolf."This is where you will sleep." Dax murmured as he led us around the packhouse. "Here?" I repeated, eyeing the single bed that was within."Is there a problem?" Dax asked, narrowing his gaze on me. "I'm being kind enough to allow you to stay here. What more do you want? ""I'm not sleeping separately from my wife." I pointed out, wrapping a protective arm around Danica's waist as she let out a huff and rolled her eyes."W-wife?" Dax sputtered, eyeing us. "Did you say... ""That's right." I smirked. "We are not only Bryllie's parents, but we were married eight years ago."I felt a sense of satisfaction as Dax's expression fell into one of frustration. Ha

Standing, I watched as her voluptuous chest rose and fell with each breath she took."Fuck, you're beautiful." I growled, pulling off my shirt."No talking." Danica panted, propping her up on her elbows."Hm?" Raising my brow, I let a slow smile play across my lips.Kneeling down, I hooked my fingers into her pants and pulled, exposing her dripping vagina that was begging for me."Mason," she sighed, laying back and closing her eyes.Letting out a growl, I felt my dick twitch in my pants. Propping her legs on my shoulders, I dove in, slowly savoring the taste and feel of Danica."Mmmm," Danica purred, arching her back and pressing herself against my face. "More, I want more.""Whatever my queen commands." I chuckled, diving further between her folds and quicke

    [Bryllie’s POV]"I don’t want to hear that." I whispered, trying to contain the emotions that were rolling through me. "From you or from Armond.""Armond?" Desmond repeated, frowning. "Are you saying…""That’s right." I snapped, not caring if I drew attention to us anymore. "He said the same exact thing. It seems that I’m magically mated to both of you! I don't know if this is some kind of game between the two of you, but it isn't funny, and I'm not interested in being your target."Unable to control my emotions any longer, I stormed forward, shoving my way past Desmond and towards where my parents stood chatting with Grandpa and Uncle Killian, who must have just arrived."There she is!" Mom announced, motioning for me to come forward. "Come greet your uncle Killian."Nodding, I began to move but stopped as a hand wrapped around my wrist.Whirling around, I took in Desmond’s desperate expression."What?" I demanded, pulling myself free. "I don’t want to hear anything else you may have

"Did you just say you warned me?"Nodding, Desmond let a smile spread across his ill-at-ease face, and I had to admit, that pissed me off even more."That’s correct." He responded easily.Nodding, I moved, slamming my fist into his cheek."You piece of shit!"Pulling back, I prepared for another attack as Desmond gave me a look of both shock and appreciation. Yuck. Did he actually enjoy getting hit or something?"I guess I deserved that." He chuckled, rubbing the spot I punched. "But it doesn’t change anything I said."Letting out a growl of warning, I reached for the door and pulled."Then you should just stay away from me." I sighed, yanking my bag from him and hefting it over my shoulder. "Consider our years of friendship the only reason I didn’t beat you black and blue."Giving Desmond one more look, I stormed out, this time not bothering to look back at all.I tried to avoid Desmond for the next few months,

"Shouldn’t you be getting up?"Nodding, he slowly got to his feet and then slung his bag over his shoulder."I guess this is see ya later." He announced, a sad smile on his face."Yeah," I agreed.Moving forward, I allowed myself to be wrapped in Armond’s strong arms and pressed against his chest. Letting out a sigh, I took in his warmth and smell while he plastered a kiss on the top of my hair."Don’t you dare forget me." He warned, pulling away. "And don’t you dare find someone new.""Don’t joke." I huffed, beginning to bristle. "Do I seem like that type of woman?""You never know."Letting out an indignant growl, I untangled myself and punched his shoulder while trying to stop the tears that were beginning to prick at my eyes.This was it. This was goodbye for at least two years.From what I knew about basic training for my

    [Bryllie’s POV]I remained silent as my mind felt like it was shutting down due to my inability to process what just happened.Did Armond really just do what I thought he did, or did I imagine the whole thing?"You’re going to swallow a bug if your mouth continues to hang open like that." Armond sighed, brushing his fingertips from my cheek to my jaw before gently pushing my chin up. "And honestly, I’m feeling offended by your reaction to my kiss."Snapping back to my senses, I scurried backward before quickly looking around to see if anyone else had noticed. When I found that we weren’t being watched, I turned my gaze back to Armond."Why did you do that?" I rasped, trying to keep my voice low. "What if someone saw?""Let them see." Armond shrugged, "And if they didn’t see the first time I could always do it again."Gasping, I held up my hand and pressed it against Armond’s mouth as he attempted to kiss me a second time. What was this guy actually thinking? He had to be out of his mi

After hours of being dolled up, I barely recognized myself.Today was my sixteenth birthday, and my parents insisted on making it a grand event despite my insisting that it wasn’t necessary.However, in the end here we were. I looked like a damn debutante making her grand debut into high society while all my guests waited for me to appear.Letting out a huff, I took one last look at my reflection, taking in the light blue prom dress my mother insisted that I wear and my blonde hair that fell in ringlets down my chest and back.Turning, I made my way across the room just in time to sense my mother and auntie Bella just outside."Bryllie?" Mom called, slowly opening the door that separated us. "Are you…"No other words escaped my mother’s lips as she took me in with wide eyes that were quickly beginning to tear up."You look beautiful." She managed as Auntie B

    [Mason’s POV]For the next few days, I spent my time going through physical therapy and then visiting Danica in the medical wing. Although she had healed up nicely, she had to stay for observation to make sure that there wasn’t any permanent damage.At first she fought tooth and nail to not have to do it, but in the end she caved and listened. Not without making sure everyone knew just how annoyed she was about it, of course.When I wasn’t training or with Danica, I was with Chris and Killian going over the list of prisoners from the battle between us and the harpies.Out of the many that attacked, only a few remained thanks to the valiant efforts of my pack, the hunters, and Black Forest. I had to admit that, despite my distrust of each group in the beginning, I now knew that if there ever came a time when we were in trouble again, they would be there for us. Likewise, we would be there for them too.After three days, our dead had been buried, and the remaining elders had managed to

"What?"Prying my eyes open, I look around at the grounds, but I couldn’t see Danica or Bryllie anywhere in sight.‘Get up.’ Grendal growled. ‘In the packhouse.’Nodding, I began to sit up despite my body feeling like it weighed a ton. Once on my feet, I began to move."Just wait for me." I murmured, reaching the packhouse entrance.Bracing myself, I shoved open the door and gasped as the overpowering smell of blood reached my nose. "Alpha!" Bella yelped, drawing my attention to where she sat on the ground with Danica cradled in her arms.Immediately, my blood turned cold in my veins.The scene was too familiar, too similar. The only difference this time was that there were no signs of poisoning."No," I rasped, dropping dow

"You’re going to die along with me."Confusion whirled as the pain I was feeling intensified and the smell of blood began to attack my senses.Slowly, I let my eyes trail down towards where the pain was coming from and found the hilt of a dagger sticking out of me."You…"Letting out a triumphant cackle, Marie twisted the blade in me and then pulled it free while I clutched at my now open wound in an attempt to staunch the bleeding."MOM!" Bryllie gasped, reminding me that she was still here."Run!" I yelled, attempting to hold Marie in place. "NOW!""No, I won’t leave you!" Bryllie argued, letting her inner light radia

I huffed, "But you won’t be succeeding in whatever fucked-up plan you have in mind."At my words, a bark of laughter escaped Rebecca’s lips as she took in my current condition."Are you planning on stopping me?" She asked, pressing her foot against my chest. "How do you intend to do anything the way you are right now?"To prove her point, she began to press down harder until I could feel my bones beginning to give under her weight.Hissing, I reached up and dug my claws into her ankle, causing a yelp of shock to escape.
