Cassie -
Daisy, Tara and I talked for another hour, Daisy told us everything she knew, which was pretty much everything Dave knew. Apparently though busy, the two of them sit together in private for a couple of hours each day trying to solve this conundrum.
We then went to meet the guys and as we got to Jack's office, Brian and Mark were just leaving, they both bowed their heads to me even though I have told them it isn't necessary when others aren't around, then they scarpered off talking about whether they had a tent, which was odd.
Knocking on the door I waited to be granted entry, I may be his mate and Luna but I believe everybody should be allowed the right to deny access to another should they deem it necessary.
After being scolded by Jack for knocking and promising
Jason -When someone knocked on my door I had this swelling sensation in my chest, I was so hopeful that it was Tara, that she had finally come to talk to me about whatever had her holding herself back from our bond. It has been an agonising 24 hours since we discovered our bond and so far I had spent a grand total of about 30 minutes with her. Was I a disappointment? Had I failed her in some way already? I had spent the last 23 and a half hours trying to distract myself, telling myself she will come around, she will come to me, we will be together. I haven’t slept, I haven’t been able to eat, I can barely bring myself to move from the sofa I managed to stumble to after she fled from my presence last night.Seeing Cassie standing behind my door was heartbreaking, I had managed to convince myself it was Tara. I love Cassie, we share that special bond t
Cassie -We talk a little more about what we think Jason should do to get Tara’s attention and to hold it when suddenly Jason perks up, “I’ve got it,” he says “I can do that, I need to talk to Jack, do you know where he is?”“He’s in his office, want me to come with you?”“Nah, I know exactly what to do, I’m going to move into the room next to hers, she won’t be able to avoid me then, and you know she has been since the moment she smelt me in your office, even when she didn’t know it was me, it’s not person to me, it’s personal to her mate and I’m going to show her that she can count on me.”I worry for a moment that this might backfire, but Jason seems so convinced it will work that I dare not argue with him, at least he is showing signs of life again and I can be on hand as a confidant whenever he needs one.“Ok,”
Authors POV - Cassie and Jack talk over the concerns they have regarding Brian and Mark heading out on this mission now that they know what Mark is thinking, but with the leak being out it would be odd for Brian and Mark to not go on this so-called trip they had planned. They decide to send Dave a message and see if he is still awake so they can go over options together and within minutes of sending the message to Dave the phone in Jack’s office lets out a resounding ring. Cassie jumps at the sudden sound after the silence that had fallen between them while they waited.Jack reaches around Cassie, who is still perched on his knee, and picks up the phone, placing it on the desk and opting for the speaker option so the three could talk more comfortably.“What are you 2 love birds still doing up at this hour? And what could you possibly need me for? It hasn’t gone stale over there already has it?” They can hear the humour in Dave’s words but instead of joining the banter playfully Cass
Thank you for sticking with me, now to begin book 2...Following on from Betrayed by the Beta, can Alpha Dave and his twin sister Daisy work through the trouble of reorganizing a pack that has been mistreated for months all while helping their friends, Jack and Cassie, to capture a threat that could bring them all to their knees? Help Jason and Tara come to terms with a difficult past? and assist Brian as he tries to help Mark overcome his strong need to prove himself worthy, which could result in serious consequences?With Ace still at large with Maddie by his side, will the gang be able to put a stop to his plans before any permanent damage can be done??
Daisy - My twin brother is a freaking Alpha! I can't even believe it, an Alpha! In the span of just a few short weeks our lives have been completely transformed, turned upside down in every way imaginable and I'm pretty sure my brother's head is still spinning. I know for a fact that mine is. O.K, O.K, Let me slow down, rewind, breathe, let me take you back to that time a ‘few short weeks ago’ and I'll tell you everything and bring you up to speed.So…Our pack is… no wait, was, the Rival River Pack, Jack was our Alpha and he is still the Alpha of Rival River, my twin brother Dave, was the beta, Jason is the Gamma and Brian is the Delta, we all grew up together, we have always been and still are very close, almost like siblings, which, O.K. I mean Dave and are actual siblings but well, yeah, you get what I mean. Anyway, it only feels like it was a few weeks ago that I was on night patrol with Jason. I was moaning about something or another that Dave had done, I can't remember what h
Daisy - My darling brother was never one to covet what others had, but because he didn’t want to burden his best friend with 2 packs to run, not when he had only just found his mate after almost 8 years of longing for her. So, with him taking on the role of Alpha to a pack under such turmoil, I am now the unofficial Beta of Twin Lakes as, without Dave as Alpha and me as Beta the pack would be completely leaderless. Ace very quickly went underground, he like, literally vanished, he is in hiding, the bloody coward ran as soon as he felt the shift in power, according to some of the pack members. He escaped with Maddie who was the Delta's daughter and her father. From what we have learned, it seems her father began orchestrating her rise through the ranks a long time ago, he poisoned the Luna to be barren, he encouraged Maddie to be with Ace, as he would have been Alpha since the current Alpha was and would always be childless, and he helped to kill the Luna to weaken Alpha Sven and Go
Some things you should know…..In this particular world of supernatural beings there are a few rules.There is no mindlink or verbal link to your wolf, you co-exist within one body but are separate beings with no way to communicate.You get your wolf at the age of 15.You can find your Mate at 17, regardless of their age.Pups are only born to True Mates, Chosen Mates are not able to have children together, but second-chance mates are common.Rejection is rare (Due to the baby thing) but not frowned upon.Rejection hurts the rejecter more than the rejected.Movement between packs is uncommon but not unheard of (Especially for ranked members searching for their Mates).This is a fictional world where some things may seem familiar but are out of the ordinary in this land.Everything written here is of my own imagination and any similarities between this and other works is purely coincidental.Thank you for giving my book a chance!!
Cassie - “Cr@ck 20 eggs into the mixing bowl, NO Shell! Add a dash of milk, A teaspoon of pepper, And whisk….. Melt some butter in the pan and pour.” If I focus on these steps, I might make it through the morning. I can’t mess up the eggs again. They will never let me live it down. I can’t take another beating like yesterday, I’m barely healed as it is, add another beating like that and I will be out of commission, with no hope of passing my exams this week, and if I don’t pass these exams I will never get out of here. I stop my musings long enough to stir the eggs and lower the heat, burnt eggs means burnt hands, I managed the bacon this morning and the sausages are a lovely colour, now all I need are these damn eggs to finish. The toaster pops startling me from my thoughts, just as Ace saunters into the kitchen, Ace, the man of the moment, the man of my nightmares… “Cas, are you dreaming about me again?” Ace asks me with a wicked smirk on his face. It isn’t an ugly face per

Cassie -Tara looks relieved when we don’t push her for more information about her reaction to us mentioning her mate, I will be digging into that later, but for now, while Daisy is here I want to go through everything we know and see what we can think of for how to catch Ace.I know he isn’t done with me, he won’t want to let my escape go unpunished. I could hope that Maddie would convince him that I am not worth the effort, but with the way she has treated me in the past I imagine she wouldn’t mind getting another chance to torment me. Maybe her father can convince them both, maybe he will get them far enough away from all of us that they can make a new life for themselves and leave our packs alone. I know Ace was looking forward to the power of being an Alpha, maybe he can create his own pack, make himself Alpha and gather members over
Jack -I quickly slide out of bed and head to the ensuite to wash myself and grab a warm cloth. When I return she has turned onto her side facing where I should be with an arm reaching out as though searching for me, a slight pout on her luscious lips. I make quick work of cleaning between her legs and I throw the cloth into the basket just inside the bathroom before sliding back into bed and wrapping her up in my arms. Her pout smoothes out as soon as our skin touches and she shuffles towards me resting her head on my chest, I begin to drift off to sleep with a smile on my face, thanking the moon goddess for this woman. My wolf whispers to me in a sleepy voice "perfect for us" and I agree with him wholeheartedly before finally succumbing to sleep and finding my love in my dreams waiting for me.When I wake up the next
