The steady beeping sound of hospital machinery breaks through my sleepy fog. It's a sound I don’t think my mind could ever forget. I’ve been here too many times in my life.

That dreaded beep invading my brain as I lay here. I feel my lashes flutter against my cheeks as I force my eyes open. My hand feels heavy and warm. I feel a faint tingle under the skin on my hand.

I blink a few times trying to focus, but I’m nearly blinded by the light in the room. Everything is white. The walls, the floors, the bed.

I see....Wyatt? I blink a few more times, trying to focus.

Why is Wyatt here....and....holding my hand, asleep, in the hospital? Where is Parker?

I remember we were at the mall, eating lunch, and then so much pain. After that, I don’t remember much of anything.

Using my elbows, I try and pull myself up to a sitting position. Wyatt sits up abruptly, releasing my hand.

“Hey, how are you feeling?” he whispers groggily, quickly putting his hands in his lap.

“The pain is gone, bu

  • Choosing her heart   Make it make sense(Wyatt POV)

    I reluctantly left Felicity at the hospital with Cami, even though my mind was screaming at me to stay. The bond was addictive, and despite being in an awful hospital chair, I slept better than I have in longer than I can remember.I have no fucking idea what is happening right now. Felicity can’t be my mate. She’s already mated to Parker and pregnant with his pup. But the more time I spend near her, the stronger the sparks get. The more intense her scent smells. The more I feel the need to be close to her. None of it makes sense. I’m starting to think the witch that I dated in high school put a curse on me. Fucking witches. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I try to massage away the headache that has begun. I wish Kai was back so that I could talk to him. He'd probably smack me upside the head and tell me what an idiot I was, but I'd take that over nothing.I know it could be dangerous to confide in him since Parker has become a close friend, but he’s been my best friend since we w

  • Choosing her heart   The Plan(Elenore POV)

    I’ve become increasingly impatient with Tobias on his mission. I need that healer to complete my collection. His partner and the child will be a great bonus to me, but aren’t necessary, as I already have captured a future teller.But sometimes things happen, and it wouldn't hurt to have a backup. I’ve been working for three years to secure these mutts. The first year I spent doing research after I was approached by a business partner with the idea. He knew of the mythical werewolf and his “mate”, or whatever you call them. His mate happened to be able to move objects with a single thought. That mate of his sparked an idea in his mind. Why not make money off of these creatures?Abe exploited her trust and that creepy bond they shared. She confided in him more than enough information for us to make this little dream a reality. He came to me, looking for a business partner, and here we are.Humans were willing to do anything to either see or utilize my collection of mutts. I’ve mad

  • Choosing her heart   Relief (Parker POV)

    As soon as our plane landed at the airport just outside of the border of our pack, I bolted, shifting into my wolf so that we could make it to Felicity faster. She's been alone for far too long. Ash has been doing nothing but whimpering since we received the call that she was in the hospital. He wanted to tear the pilots head off when he told us that we wouldn’t be able to fly home until the storms passed through. Then, he wanted to tear my head off for leaving her in the first place. ‘Get us to Felicity before I start losing it,’ he growled with a quick howl and picked up his speed. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him move so quickly. As soon as we made it to the edge of the forest outside of the hospital, I forced him to shift so that we could get inside, despite his protesting. He'd argued that he needed to see her to know she was okay, but the more time we wasted arguing the angrier I grew.'They're not going to let you barrel through the halls. Just shift and I'll let you forwar

  • Choosing her heart   Guilt

    I woke up early to find that Parker was no longer at the hospital with me. I tried to link him, but he had his block up, which concerned me.Glancing around the room, I notice he hadn’t left anything, which meant he'd actually left. I checked my phone but had no notifications from him. I tried to link Kai, but again, was blocked out. Usually, Kai wouldn’t have his block up. Being the Alpha meant that he needed to be available if anything important happened in the pack. I pondered for a moment before trying to link Wyatt. Since he’s the Beta, he may know what’s going on. ‘Hey, it’s Felicity. Is Parker with you or Kai?’My link to him surprisingly went through. That's strange. I waited a moment before his voice floated in my head. ‘Yeah, he didn’t tell you he was meeting Kai?’ ‘No, I must have been asleep when he left. That makes me feel better. Thank you.’ A few minutes passed before I heard his voice again, ‘Is everything okay?’ He sounded concerned, which made me smile. ‘

  • Choosing her heart   Sleepless night

    I’m still in shock from my meeting with Kai. When he linked me to come meet him, I never expected to find out that a wolf running from the very people we are trying to track down was sitting in his office. I wanted more information. I needed it with every fiber of my being. If he was telling the truth, and he’d been captured but escaped, he had very important information that could help us. My mind was still waffling with trusting him or not. Ash had growled at him, but he wouldn’t speak to me after I left Felicity again. I couldn’t tell if he was just moody over being away from his mate again or if he was getting bad vibes from Tobias. I didn’t want to leave Felicity again so soon, but since this was detrimental to my family, I needed to speak to him. If Felicity understood, then Ash could too. We interrogated him for hours last night before Kai decided to take a break and give him a guarded room to stay in for the evening. If he was innocent, we were simply leading him to beli

  • Choosing her heart   Blind trust

    A bath was just what I needed to come down from the rollercoaster high that Parker just took me on. It had been far too long since the last time we were intimate and goddess, it felt incredible. I wanted to look presentable today, so I combed out my hair with a real brush and put product in to bring my curls to life. Smudging a little eyeliner along my upper lash line really brought out my eyes. After applying some mascara and pink lip-gloss, I felt more like myself than I have in a long time. With everything that has been going on with Parker, our pup, and now this mess with Wyatt; I haven't felt like doing much other than hiding in bed. Now I just needed to find an outfit that actually fit my ever-growing belly. I headed to the closet, rummaging through all of my clothes and coming up empty handed. Everything I pulled out didn’t feel right or wouldn’t fit right. I plopped on the edge of the bed, frustrated and stressed, “Peanut, you’re going to have to come out soon or I’m

  • Choosing her heart   Family(PARKER POV)

    I struggled sleeping again last night. It's starting to feel like I'll never get a full night of rest again. Felicity tossed and turned throughout the night, which worried me further. She’s due to give birth any day now. I can imagine she’s uncomfortable on top of everything else. I couldn’t stop thinking about how terrible lunch went yesterday. I never expected Felicity to ask so many questions. Goddess, I'd never seen her so direct. She seemed so sure that Tobias was lying. So sure that he was somehow deceiving us. The more I think about it, the more I just can’t imagine why. What gain would he get out of coming here? He didn’t ask for me specifically. He just told his story to Kai and begged for asylum. Kai was the one who reached out to me because his story directly impacts my family. A huge part of me is so relieved to have found someone who isn’t necessarily related to me by blood, but related to me in the sense that we share special abilities. I linked Wyatt, asking if h

  • Choosing her heart   Interrogations

    My eyes feel so heavy. Almost as if they are taped shut. After a few tries, I force them open to see the lush green of a forest. I blink a few times, looking from side to side. Where am I? Sitting up up and looking down at my belly, I realize that I’m not pregnant anymore. I push myself off of the ground, wiping the dirt and leaves that stuck to my palms away. My fingers linger over the flat plane of my stomach.Dread settles in the pit of my stomach as it finally dawns on me where I'm at. I’m inside of my nightmare again. This time, I’ve woken up in a different area than before. It looks familiar, but something has changed. The air around me feels more dense. It's harder to breathe as my lungs take in breaths of icy air. I start heading north, climbing over fallen trees and trekking through heavy brush. It’s recently rained and running through the mud barefoot is becoming tiring. After a few minutes, my toes feel numb from the temperatures. ‘Iris, can you hear me here?’ Nothi

  • Choosing her heart   Chose my heart(THE END)

    The night was finally here and the room was full. People from all walks of life sat at small round tables together. “You look beautiful,” Wyatt whispered in my ear. I decided to wear an all-black sun dress and just enough eye makeup to accentuate my eyes. We opted to keep things fairly casual for the evening. That way, there was no pressure on our new members. Many came here with next to nothing, and didn't want a free handout. Wyatt’s father was sitting at a table chatting with a beautiful vampire. He had a broad smile and she was laughing at whatever it was he was saying. He held Dex in his arms and kept glancing down at him while speaking with the woman.“I think that your father might be smitten.”Wyatt followed my gaze, “Oh yeah, he’s in trouble. Or maybe she’s in trouble.”Kiera joined us, “There are far more people here than I thought,” she whispered, nervously wringing her hands. “You have nothing to worry about. You’re a natural.”She took one final deep breath before taki

  • Choosing her heart   Preparing

    “Do we have all of the food prepared for the evening?” Two of the kitchen staff stood before me with clipboards. We were going over everything needed for our welcoming party. We had an overwhelming response once we began sending out invitations for the Safe Haven. At first, it was like a shockwave to the supernatural community. Unheard of in a way. A lot of packs returned our letter, accusing us of trying to steal their members. Some packs asked to come in and see what it was exactly that we were working so diligently on. We had five Alpha’s meeting Kai in total confusion on why we would welcome those of different supernatural races into our pack. ‘Werewolves are supposed to run packs for werewolves!’ they’d say. But in the end, they weren’t why we were making the program anyways and we held no room for their outdated ways. Once we had a few wolves show up, it was like the domino effect. It quickly became apparent that we were not prepared for the task ahead of us. “I believe so

  • Choosing her heart   Excitement(Wyatt POV)

    I’ve been trembling with excitement since we arrived. Felicity was sitting on a small bed with a towel on her lap, fidgeting her fingers since the nurse brought us in here. They’d taken a small vile of her blood and we were patiently waiting for the ultrasound tech to come and start looking at our pup. “I hope they hurry up. I’m going to burst here in a moment.”Felicity giggled, leaning down and capturing my lips in a sloppy kiss. A soft knock at the door had her pulling away and in came a young nurse. “Are you two ready to see your fledgling?” she asked with a warm smile. I’ve been calling my pup a kin, or pup, but the correct term is fledgling. The more you know...Felicity leaned back on the table as the nurse squirted jelly on her exposed belly. I grasped Felicity’s hand, squeezing it tightly. My eyes never left the little screen as she placed the wand into the sticky substance. A wiggly bean appeared on the screen causing my eyes to instantly well with tears. That little t

  • Choosing her heart   Full circle

    I decided to walk back home slowly, thinking about everything that had happened. I don’t want to believe that Parker is still in love with me. The thought makes me feel dirtied, like I'm betraying Kiera. She deserves his whole heart just as I've given mine to Wyatt.‘Can I come to you?’ Wyatt’s voice floated in my head.‘Sure, I’m walking home from the lake.’Less than thirty seconds later, Wyatt appeared in front of me. I could feel his guilt as he stood there wringing his hands.Closing the distance between us, I wrapped my arms tightly around his body and angled my face to look up at him. “Are you okay?”His arms snaked around my back, pulling me flush to him. One hand rested on the back of my head and the other squeezed my midsection. His chin rested against my hair, “I feel awful for how I acted earlier. Kiera didn’t deserve that."“I’m sure she will forgive you.”His head fell onto my shoulder, “Did you talk with Parker?”“I did.”He pulled away from me, “That’s all I get?”I s

  • Choosing her heart   Ash(Parker POV)

    She nodded and he leaned forward, crashing our lips into hers. His hands went into her hair, gripping it tightly. He pulled her closer to us, snaking a hand behind her back. The sparks from their contact were electrifying. ‘You taste like heaven,’ he growled, ‘Better than heaven.’ I typically wouldn’t have given Ash full control but I felt like they needed this moment. She climbed onto his lap and from where I was in his mind, it was like watching a show. Almost like seeing my mate with myself but from the outside, which was an interesting twist. He gripped her sides, positioning her directly on his lap. She leaned forward, capturing his lips in a dominant kiss. He plunged our tongue deep in her mouth and she let out a muffled moan. ‘Will you let me explore you, Kiera? I want to show you just how much you mean to me.’ “Please,” she moaned out. He stood, her legs wrapped around our middle and he carried her to the room. ‘Don’t be too rough,’ I warned. ‘Go away,’

  • Choosing her heart   Cut the strings that hold me back(Parker POV)

    As we ran through the thick foliage, Felicity’s voice was on repeat in my mind. I needed to forgive myself. Let go of the need for control. How does one do that when it is the only thing that they know? ‘The Goddess made Kiera for us. She doesn’t make mistakes,’ Ash muttered. That was only one piece to my puzzle. How do I forgive myself for not being there when my parents needed me? When Felicity needed me? When..... I needed me? Ash followed Kiera’s scent back to our house and I silently thanked the goddess that she still came home after I had embarrassed her today. He shifted, giving me control. I quickly threw on a pair of shorts and rushed inside. Kiera was sitting on the couch with a packed suitcase. The sight broke my heart. “Are.... are you leaving?” Her gaze met mine and I saw her puffy, bloodshot eyes. She probably hasn’t quit crying since I left the pack house. The thought that I caused that was a suckerpunch to the gut.“I think that would be what’s bes

  • Choosing her heart   Choices

    I found Parker sitting by the same lake that I’d taken him to the first time we talked after he came home. The whole run over here, I tried to think of what I was going to say, but in all honesty, the shock hadn’t worn off. There was never a moment where I would have considered Parker still harboring such deep feelings for me. The air coming off of the lake was bitter, even for myself. I walked over, sitting down next to him on the embankment. We sat in silence for what felt like forever before Parker spoke up, “I come here sometimes to think. It’s peaceful,” he chuckled sadly, "Just like you'd said before. Who would of thought you were always right?"I smiled, looking over the dark expanse of water, “It’s my favorite place within the pack lands.” “Why did you come to find me?” he questioned, sparing me a sideways glance. “It sounds like we need to talk,” I whispered. Part of me still didn’t know how to approach this situation. I didn’t want to hurt Parker. That was never

  • Choosing her heart   Sick joke

    When I heard all of the crashing coming from down the hall, I never imagined we’d be walking in on this. Parker being held back by Kai. Wyatt was leaned against the wall spitting blood. Wyatt shook his head with a smirk, his eyebrows raised, “Are you really going to make me tell her?” “Fill me in here. What is going on?” Wyatt chuckled, looking directly at Parker, “He’s still in love with you and is pissed that you turned.” A snort escaped his throat as he spit blood again, swiping the drips that had slid down from his nose, "What a fucking joke."My gaze fell on Parker and he looked absolutely devastated. I thought that we had been through this. We talked by the lake. He had given me a small ounce of doubt, but I was under the impression that we had worked through it. “Is this some kind of joke?” Kiera whispered. Tears filled her bright green eyes as she stared at Parker waiting for him to contradict what Wyatt was saying. I could hear her heart rate increase. She was hol

  • Choosing her heart   Don't know how what to feel (Parker POV)

    I slammed my fist into the opposite wall, “What’s my problem?" I seethed, "I don’t know, Wyatt. Ever since you walked into Felicity’s life, you have fucked things up.” He looked at me, a mix of anger, hurt, and confusion in his features, “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?” “You destroyed my relationship with Felicity. We were mates, that was supposed to be sacred, but you used your mate bond to destroy what we had. You play daddy to my daughter," I slammed my finger into my chest feeling the emotions inside tryng to explode, "You continuously put my family in danger. Time and time again. You’re not even a werewolf anymore for Goddess' sake and now... now you’ve managed to turn Felicity. You stole her identity. She was perfect. A beautiful she-wolf and now she’s a filthy bloodsucker.... just like you.” Kai’s eyes were wide when I finished my rant but Wyatt just stood there, smirking. “Are you still in love with Felicity?” was the only thing that came out of his mouth.
