[Tatiana’s POV]

I nervously pull at my shirt while Knight comes around the car to let me out, and when he does, I find myself wanting to stay in place.

The next day had come, and it was time for me to meet my mother’s pack and family. Although I should have been thrilled about getting to meet my family, all I could think of was the betrayal my uncle had left me with.

“Are you going to sit there all day?” Knight asks when I don’t move. “If you’re second-guessing, we can..."

“No,” I say quickly, beginning to move. “This has to happen.”

I could only hope that my mother’s side would accept me. It would be much easier that way, but if I had to fight to get them to join me, then I would do that too.

The longer we allowed my uncle to control Hunters Moon, Onyx River, and Obsidian River, the harder it would be to reclaim them. We needed to nip this issue in the bud ASAP and do away with him.

And Massimo, the small voice in the back of my head, reminds me.

Tensing, I try to ignore the flare of

    [Knight’s POV]I follow silently as Tatiana’s grandfather leads us through his packhouse and to his office, where we can speak alone. As we move, I take in the walls, which are covered in photos of past leaders, and when we cross one that has a woman who looks almost identical to Tatiana, I can’t help but stop and stare.The woman in front of me is beautiful and radiates a power so strong it managed to get caught in a simple photograph, but unlike Tatiana, her eyes sparkled with promise and weren't shadowed with demons.“That’s Giana,” Tatiana’s grandfather explains, catching me. “It seems that my granddaughter took after her.”As he speaks, he gives Tatiana a look that is both proud and sad.“She did." I agree.Beside me, Tatiana remains silent as she takes in her mother’s portrait, and when I can only assume it becomes too much for her, she turns away and starts examining another photo.“Shall we continue?” Tatiana’s grandfather asks, catching on to Tatiana’s unease.“Sure,” I respo

    [Tatiana’s POV]“Thank you." My voice hitches as I feel a wave of relief rush through me. “Truly, I know that you have no reason to join us given our sudden appearance, but..."“I’m going to stop you there,” my grandfather says, giving me a gentle smile. “It was because of that, Giovani, your parents died.”At his words, I feel like a knife is stabbing straight into my chest. So it was known that my uncle was responsible, and I actually believed everything he told me.“What do you mean it was Giovani?” Knight asks as I fight with guilt. “Do you know something no one else does?”“I’ve done my own investigation,” he explains. “Only recently did I hear word of his beginning to dominate other packs. I had one of my men get ahold of your mother’s hospital records. It was said that she died from heartbreak over losing you, but in the end, a potent drug was found in her system. These weren’t the same records I was given when she died. After seeing that, I looked into your father’s death and

    [Tatiana’s POV]I stare down at the amulet in my hand while Knight’s words settle in. How did he manage to convince my grandfather to give him this?“Will it really block him?” I ask, unable to fully believe. “Are you sure?”“There’s only one way to find out,” he chuckles, reaching out and taking the necklace from me. “Here, let me put it on you.”Nodding, I lift my hair off my neck and wait as Knight places the delicate chain in place. Where his fingers brush comes alive and improper thoughts immediately begin to invade my mind. When a growl of longing escapes Knight, I know that he can feel what I want, and I find myself wondering if we were going to have a repeat of what happened the day before.“Patience,” Knight murmurs, kissing my skin. “I’m not looking for another quickie.”Blushing, I simply nod and get comfortable as he spurs the car to life, and we begin to make our way back to Crystal Fang.By the time we reach the main highway that will lead us to our destination, I’m begi

What the hell was this, and why was I suddenly feeling this way?Beside me, Giovani lets out a laugh as his minions continue to attack Tatiana until she is down and unable to move. Anger rushes through me, but as quickly as it is there, it is gone, and I’m just left empty.As I continue to stare, her eyes flit toward me, and a look of betrayal and hurt flash in them. Again, I feel that odd emotion that was nagging at me, but I shove it aside. I owed this woman nothing after how she betrayed me.“Don’t you think you’re wasting too much time playing with her?” I ask Giovani when he continues to watch his men rip at Tatiana’s skin. “Fernando won’t be happy if his new bride is gravelly injured.”“She will heal,” he shrugs. “Anyway, she should consider this a lesson for her disobedience.”Disobedience. I hated that fucking word, and each time he used it, I got even more pissed. He woul

I failed you.”I don’t know how long I’m out for after that, but the sound of glass shattering and then hands touching me rouse me again, and I find Desmond and Geraldo pulling me out of the remains of my car."Fuck!" Desmond hisses as he takes me in. “They did a number to you, kid.”“Are you surprised?” Geraldo counters.Ignoring their hit, I shift my gaze in the direction I last saw Tatiana and find that no one is there.“Tatiana,” I gasp, attem

I’m dressed in a long black button-down with a leather vest and black pants, and my long red hair is pulled into a ponytail at the nape of my neck. This is the typical look for a leader who is in mourning. “If you’re nervous, I can…”“No,” I say, giving him a smile. “I can do this.

    [Tatiana’s POV]My heart races as I stare at the name that flashes on my phone. Massimo. Was it really him calling me right now, or was it someone else pretending to be him? I didn’t know, but I wanted to find out.“Answer it.” Knight’s voice is firm, and it snaps me out of my daze. “We’ve been looking for that bastard for five years, and here he is calling you like it's nothing.”I don’t miss the hint of distrust in his voice as he speaks, but for the time being, I didn’t want to deal with it. The most important thing was answering this call and figuring out if it truly was Massimo reaching out to communicate with me or not.Sucking in a breath, I swipe to answer and bring the phone to my ear, then wait.“Little fairy.” Massimo rasps as what sounds like bottle clatter in the background. “Is that you?”Eyes widening, I realize that the person on the other end is, in fact, Massimo, and he was actually calling.“Is it him?” Knight asks slowly, clearly trying to keep his temper in check.

This was the first time she had ever been to the beach, so of course she was excited.“I want to swim!”As the words leave her lips, she attempts to rush forward but stops as Tatiana reaches down and grabs her wrist.“Careful!” I hiss, not missing the way she wobbles forward due to her large belly. “You’re going to fall and hurt yourself!”“I’ll be fine,” she insists, giving me a look of annoyance. “This isn’t the first time I’ve been pregnant.”Wincing, I try not to think about that time when I abandoned her when she truly needed me the most. I was a fucking fool back then, and it cost me a year with the woman I love the most and the first two months of my daughter's life.That was why this time around I was doing everything, from attending every single doctor's appointment to doing everything Tatiana needed me

She looks adorable in her golden dress, with her hair done up into a tiny ponytail at the top of her head.Since she began to walk, no one could stop her from getting where she wanted. She was a little escape artist, and I was certain her nanny would appear soon with a look of annoyance on her features.“Up!” She insists, holding up her arms.Nodding, I do as she says before turning to Desmond, whom I had been talking to moments prior.“Typical,” he chuckles. “The minute your girls are involved, no one else exists.”“As it should be,” I agree. “Why would I want to pay attention to an old fart like you when such a beauty is in front of me?”This was the first time I had seen Desmond in months, and he was busy telling me about how things were going back at Crystal Fang.

    [Knight’s POV]I stare into Tatiana’s eyes, trying to determine whether or not I heard her correctly. How was it possible that someone could be given this much fucking happiness at once? Especially a sinner like me?“Well?” She asks, looking shy. “Will you?”Would I? Of course I fucking would! But would she regret asking me to do it in the future? We still had such a long way to go in our relationship, but right now we never felt closer. However, anything could happen in the blink of an eye, and everything would come crumbling down.“Knight,” she continues when I don’t speak. “Look at me.”Reaching up, Tatiana grabs my cheeks and makes me look into her beautiful golden eyes, which can’t be outdone by the sun itself. They were perfect, she was perfect, and somehow she was all mine.“I want you to mark me,” she continues. “I want the world to know that I’m yours and you are mine. If I’ve learned anything from the past year, it is that tomorrow isn’t promised. Many were lost so that we c

It was almost as if he had disappeared or never existed at all.Letting out a sigh, I try to shake off my thoughts and head out of the bathroom to find Knight laying in bed waiting for me.“About time,” he says as his eyes begin to take me in and grow darker. “I was about to go in and check on you.”“Sorry for making you wait,” I say, taking a seat beside him and reaching for my hairbrush. “I was just…”“Needing some privacy?” He offers, making me flinch. Fuck, had he read my thoughts? “I told you that I have all my best men looking for him.”I knew that it probably hurt Knight to know that I was th
