Indianna shook her head and Harry rolled his eyes, looking at Tai and nodding shortly.
"Indie," Harry said. "I need to speak to you." Harry walked past Brooke and took Indianna off to the side, making sure they were out of earshot.
"She's one too," he said and Indianna nodded.
"I know."
"And you're making friends with her? She could be dangerous."
"Brooke made friends with her," Indianna said and Harry shook his head. "And I thought it might be best to get to know her. She doesn't seem the friendliest, but she doesn't seem dangerous."
"And him?" Harry asked, nodding his head to the other new student as he walked into the gym. "What a coincidence, the two new people are werewolves."
"At the moment they're not doing any harm. Let's see if we can find out why they are here and then decide what to do."
Harry gave Indianna a look before walking back to Brooke who was talking to Tai.
"So, Tai," Harry said, staring Tai down.
Tai raised an eyebrow. "What?"
"Why are you here?"
"Why do you care?"
"Why won't you answer my question?" Harry snapped.
"Jheeze, chill," Brooke ordered and poked Harry's arm. "Sorry about him, he's an ass."
Harry glanced at Brooke and then back to Tai. "Are you going to answer my question?"
"No, you're a stranger. I don't need to tell you anything," Tai shrugged.
"She's right," Indianna spoke up.
*Don't give her a reason to be a danger,* Indianna mindlinked Harry and he rolled his eyes.
"Apologise," Brooke said and crossed her arms over her chest.
"Why?"
"Because you're an ass," Tai said and smiled at Harry, making him narrow his eyes and take a step forward.
"Enough," Brooke gasped and grabbed Harry's hand, trying to pull him back.
Indianna couldn't help but smirk slightly as Brooke tugged Harry away. "Not many people do that," she commented.
"Do what?" Tai wondered.
"Stand up to him."
"Why?"
"He's not the friendliest," Indianna said.
"Really? No shit," Tai scoffed.
"He's off with everyone," Indianna said. "Try not to take it personally."
"I won't, don't worry," Tai shrugged and Brooke and Harry returned just as the teacher walked in.
"Everyone, listen up!" The teacher called. "Today's class is going to be a little different. In light of the recent attacks around town this isn't going to be a normal gym lesson. As you are all aware, the gang presence in this town has risen dramatically over the past month, and while the police are doing everything they can to stop it, it is still dangerous."
Indianna stiffened and she shared a look with the guys. It was Rogue. Rogue and his men causing havoc and chaos because they could.
And Indianna couldn't stop it.
Indianna could feel eyes on her and she frowned when she noticed Tai staring at her with a suspicious look on her face. Tai quickly glanced at the others before turning her attention to the teacher.
"So for today's class, we are going to be doing self defence!"
The guys immediately all looked at Indianna who took a deep breath and crossed her arms over her stomach. No one knew she was pregnant. She was only two months along and was barely showing.
*I'll go with you,* Kal said immediately. *We can't risk any harm to the baby.*
Indianna nodded at Kal and gently rubbed her stomach, chewing her lip nervously. The baby was all she had left. It was the only thing that kept her going. It was the only thing left of Greyson.
"What the hell are you staring at?" Kimberly demanded, walking up to Indianna's side and glaring at Tai who was looking at Indianna's hands on her stomach.
Tai raised her gaze and narrowed her eyes at Kimberly. "Me and you are going to have a problem if you don't drop that bitchy attitude."
"Excuse me! You-"
Kal suddenly appeared next to Kimberly and grabbed her hand. "Please don't be a bitch," he whined. "Just for 10 minutes. Please? If you do then I promise I won't ever make you watch Mean Girls ever again."Kimberly raised her eyebrow at Kal and placed her hand on his cheek. "I will claw your eyes out of you make me watch that film again," she said."Everybody, pair up!" The teacher called and Kal grinned at Indianna."I'm going to kick some girl butt," he teased and Indianna shook her head."Count me out, I'm not breaking a nail," Kimberly scoffed and crossed her arms over her chest and took a step back."I guess I'm with you," Brooke grinned and turned to Tai."Don't you want to go with Harry?" Tai wondered and Brooke laughed."God no," she said and looked over her shoulder to where Harry was walking across the gym. "On second thoughts... Crap." Brooke narrowed her eyes at Harry who stopped in front of Brandon and raised his eyebrows. "Nope, that's not happening!"Brooke suddenly rus
"That he is as fit and healthy as my dead great grandma," Kal said and Harry rolled his eyes."He's weak-""Obviously, I've been lying here for a month," Ace said, "but I'll get stronger if I move around.""His body has deteriorated," Doc announced as he walked into the room. "As werewolves we are active, we have to be. Ace has been still for a long time and his body hasn't appreciated. He's extremely weak and unfit. Even the slightest of exertions will affect him badly. It's going to take time before he is back to how he was before. I recommend him to stay at the house, with minimal activity to get his body used to moving around again. In time we can increase his activity.""School sounds like a bad idea, Ace," Indianna said, frowning slightly."I hear you," Ace nodded."He just doesn't care about his health," Harry snapped."No, I do-""Then listen to Doc.""I am, but I know how my body feels, I'm not in top condition, but I can survive school," Ace sighed."I can't stop you from do
"Don't lie!" Rogue yelled and Indianna noticed Brooke look over to him, her eyes widening in fear. "Do not lie to me, sister! I am already angry and you do not want to make me worse!""S-sorry!" Indianna blurted. "I won't lie to you!""No, you won't," Rogue snapped. "Whenever you have news about the baby, I want to hear about it. I shall know if you don't tell me."Indianna nodded. "I'll tell you.""Fantastic," Rogue nodded. "Oh, sister, I wouldn't look so relieved just yet, you're not off the hook yet. I'm still rather upset at the secrecy."Indianna watched Rogue cautiously and she gasped when he started walking over to Brooke. "No, I'm sorry, leave her alo-"Brooke yelled out in pain as Rogue grabbed her hair and yanked her up. Her eyes went wide and she whimpered as Rogue dragged her back over to Indianna. "Don't whimper," Rogue scolded and yanked on Brooke's hair. "And stop struggling, you're a human, do you really expect to get away?""P-please!" Brooke blurted. "Let me go!""Uh
Indianna walked into school with Brooke, neither of them were in good moods today, but whereas it was obvious with Indianna, Brooke still tried to fake it and pretend she was fine.I fell down the stairs- That was what Brooke was telling people if anyone asked why she had a black eye and her arm in the cast. I tripped and just fell, silly me, she was going to say.Brooke had dark bags under her eyes, most of the people that lived in the pack house did. They had been kept awake the whole night by Brooke's screaming.No one blamed her. She couldn't help her nightmares. She wasn't choosing to relive her darkest days.Harry had been by Brooke's side the whole night. Comforting her when the nightmares finally woke her and calming her down.Ace had gone to Greyson's room, limping slightly. His injuries were still healing. Greyson's room was where Indianna now slept, wrapped in one of his jumpers. She was wide awake, holding an envelope in her hand. Ace didn't question it when she hid it qu
"What do you think?" Indianna said to Ace. "Of Tai?""She... She doesn't seem dangerous," Ace said, his eyes going to Tai who was seated in the middle of the classroom on her phone, completely ignoring the teacher."She's not very open," Indianna murmured."Neither were you when we first met," Ace pointed out. "Neither was Kimberly. We don't know her reasons.""That's true," Indianna nodded. "What do you think we should do?""Find out if they're aware of us," Ace said. "They've not made it known they are werewolves. Find that out then discuss the next move.""If they're not aware, then we approach them?" Indianna said."Yes.""And if they are aware?""We still approach them. We just might not be as welcoming," Ace shrugged.Indianna nodded. "Janson is worried," she said quietly. "Rogue wants his pack. And I don't think Janson is willing to give it up.""Rogue will slaughter them," Ace frowned. "The only way for them to survive is if they surrender to him. Janson can still be in charge
Indianna noticed Rogue discreetly sniffing the air. He glanced to Indianna and raised his eyebrows."This is Tai and Raiden," Indianna filled in. "Brother and sister."Rogue looked them up and down. "Now, you don't look to friendly," he smiled and nodded to Tai. "Very pretty, but very dark."Tai crossed her arms over her shoulders. "Stop staring at me, creep.""Tai!" Raiden hissed.Rogue tensed and Indianna groaned internally. "Jason, I need to talk to you-""Not now, sister," Rogue snapped. "I'm currently busy.""Sister? Brandon didn't tell me you had a brother," Raiden said to Indianna and she frowned at him."Brandon shouldn't be telling you anything about me-""Sister, when will your petty feud with Brandon end," Rogue tutted. "It's quite stupid actually."Indianna opened her mouth to protest, but thought better not too.Rogue smirked to himself. "So you've made friends with Brandon Fox?" Rogue questioned.Raiden nodded."Good, you don't want to get involved with the wrong sorts i
Indianna was sat in Greyson's office. She had just arrived back from talking to Rogue. She looked at the phone on the desk and sighed. She didn't want to call Janson and tell him his options. She didn't want him so say no and Rogue kill him and his entire pack.Ace walked in, startling Indianna. "Sorry," he said and looked at Indianna seriously. "How did it go?""Rogue agreed," Indianna told him. "Now I need to get Janson to.""That's good," Ace nodded. "What about your mother?"Indianna shook her head. "I didn't ask. Once he agreed I wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible.""That's understandable," Ace nodded. "Seeing him willingly... Indie, that was really brave.""I don't feel brave," Indianna mumbled. "I'm too scared to call Janson.""I'll do it," Ace said and winced as he lowered himself down on to the couch. "You've done the hard part. Let me help.""Thank you," Indianna said quietly."You need to go and have dinner and go to bed. You look exhausted," Ace said softly.
*Meet me in Greyson's office,* Indianna said."Is something wrong?" Laura asked."I don't know," Indianna frowned. "I've got to go.""Take the food!" Laura said sternly, but smiled at Indianna.Indianna nodded and made her way to Greyson's office where Ace was on the phone."How's it going?" She asked and Ace shook his head."Not good."Indianna took a seat in Greyson's chair and held her hand out for the phone. "Janson," she said once Ace passed it to her."Indie?" Jason's voice came through. "Indie, he's got us surrounded. He's starving us out."Indianna paled. "What?""Rogue has men surrounding my pack. No one can get through," Janson explained. "I don't know what to do.""Surrender," Indianna said meekly. "It's all you can do.""No! There has to be some other way.""I've spoken to Rogue. The only way for everyone to survive is for you to surrender. Give him control.""Indianna, I cannot do that!""You have too!" Indianna protested. "Or you'll loose everything.""I can fight.""We
Indianna forced a smile. "I would never."Greyson chuckled. "Are you not eating any more, sugar?"Indianna stared down at the food on her plate, feeling full. She had taken a lot more food than she could manage to consume. She shook her head.Greyson turned to his sister. "Has she actually eaten a decent breakfast?""Greyson, I've eaten!" Indianna argued.Kirstie rolled her eyes. "Trust your mate, you dick. She ate enough for a whole family.""Great. In that case." Greyson took Indianna's plate from her and sat down between the two girls, tucking into the remains of Indianna's breakfast."We better get organised," Mac said, running his hand along Kirstie's thigh. "We gotta a lot of men to get today.""No rest for the wicked," Kirstie sighed and jumped up from the floor. "Let's go tear down Rogue's empire, lover."Mac chuckled and let Kirstie pull him up from the floor. "Let's do this.""You know," Oscar said, furrowing his eyebrows as he stood up with Kirstie and Max , "you'd think th
DAY ONEIndianna was woken by Kal's snores, they were soft, but she had been struggling to sleep the whole night and now all she could focus on was Kal's heavy breathing. She sighed and turned over, trying to get comfortable which was rather hard with her bump. She was now looking at Greyson as he slept. He seemed so peaceful. His face was so calm and serene, she wished that he didn't have to wake up to the hell they were in.Greyson's eye twitched and Indianna knew that he was no longer asleep. He reached out, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her into his chest, resting his chin on her head and one hand on her stomach. *It's early, sugar, you should be asleep, not perving on me while I sleep.*Indianna chuckled slightly. *Sleep doesn't come easily these days.**Try,* Greyson pleaded. *It's 2am. You need your rest.**So do you.**I'm fine. I'm swapping watch duty with Oscar soon anyway.*The rest of the previous day was spent waiting anxiously for Oscar, Kirstie and Mac to ret
"Please don't call yourself that," Indianna said."It's true. I can't be trusted-""Would a monster feel remorse?" Indianna asked, cutting Tai off. "Do you think Rogue feels remorse over his actions?""That is different-""You are not a monster, Tai," Indianna insisted. "You didn't do what you did on purpose. As you said, you lost control. What happened has happened, it can't be taken back. The only thing we can do now is focus on the present. Tai, will you help us now?"It was a few moments before Tai acknowledged that Indianna had spoken. She pursed her lips and gave one sharp nod. "I need to wash this blood off of me," she said and turned on her heel and disappeared into Indianna's room.Indianna made her way to Greyson's room next. The scent of him surrounded her when she entered and she closed her eyes, caressing her bump. She didn't want to go without him. Indianna swallowed the lump in her throat and changed out of the clothes she had been wearing for dinner. Once she was in sw
"If I'd have known that talking to Brooklyn would change your mind then I would have suggested you do that as soon as you started to disagree with me."Indianna scowled at Greyson who smirked at her as she approached him. "Shut up."Greyson reached out and took Indianna's hand, pulling her towards him. "Thank you," he murmured."I'm still annoyed," Indianna grumbled and looked down at her feet, glaring."Hey." Greyson took Indianna's chin and tilted her head up. "Please don't be. You're keeping yourself and our children safe. That's the most important thing. Don't scowl at me, sugar.""You're important."Greyson smiled and kissed Indianna's forehead affectionately. "God, I love you, woman."Karl suddenly yelled from across the room. "They're here! Fucking hell, you took your time, lads! It's not like we're waiting for a psychopath to come and kill us or anything!""You just can't keep your mouth shut, can you?" Harry groaned, but made his way over to where Kal was now standing, over t
"Just me," Greyson croaked. "You know it's the smart thing to do. There's no point in slaughtering a whole pack.""You think I care about how many people I have control over? Do you think I care about that when my mate is lying dead in my arms!" Rogue roared. He threw Greyson to the side, kicking him onto the floor. "You will all die! I will kill you all for what you have done. None of you will live to see next week." Rogue looked down at Stacey and brushed her hair away from his face, smiling down at her. "Everything I will do to this pack will be for you, my love," he whispered. "I promise, I will make them suffer." He then walked towards the woods, not looking back at the pack. "If any of them try to leave, break their legs! I want them alive, for now!" Was the last thing Rogue said to his men before he disappeared. The rest of his men remained, but they retreated into the trees, out of sight, still there, but watching.The silence that followed next was deafening. No one said a wo
Nothing she could possibly say would help."Your pack killed my mate. SHE'S DEAD BECAUSE OF YOU. OF YOUR PACK! YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE!" His yells echoed in the woods surrounding them. "You..." He whispered. "You are going to pay."Indianna was too stunned to speak. She was vaguely aware of Greyson putting himself between her and Rogue, but that didn't stop Indianna from staring at her brother who looked ferocious.His eyes were dark, teeth bared, face red and he was spitting blood when he spoke. "You, little sister, are going to suffer. Your pathetic mate can't protect you. Your pack. No one. You are no different from our parents. I thought I could change you. Make you into a version of yourself that I could be proud of. Oh, how I was wrong.""J-Jason," Indianna stuttered, her words barely audible. "I didn't want this to happen-""I don't want your fake pity!" He roared and Indianna flinched. "I don't want lies! I want revenge!"*Sugar, you know I will die before I let him get to you.*H
Another chapter so soon? That's very unlike me.I am really enjoying writing again. I feel like I had such a long phase where I wasn't happy with ANYTHING I was writing and I never had the motivation to sit down and try and write anything, however.... That stage is gone, baby.I'm back, and hopefully, I can continue giving you guys the updates that you have so very patiently waited for!I appreciate every single one of you that still reads this, even though it's been nearly 5 years since I started this sequel... (I feel awful that I've made people wait that long and this isn't even finished)But anywayyyyy, enjoy the update, and I hope there will be another one very soon!*For a moment, Indianna thought Tai had attacked her. She was lying on the floor, her head ringing and vision slightly blurred. All she could smell was the metallic scent of blood and she panicked, her hands going to her stomach, feeling herself rapidly for any injuries.Her hands remained dry, but she didn't relax,
"Why?" Rogue taunted. "Can you feel yourself losing control?""Please, please stop," Ace pleaded with Rogue."But don't you want to hear about how she killed her father?""She did not!" Raiden cried, looking the most alive that he had in days. Tai's eyes filled with tears, but she wasn't upset. She was furious. Indianna noticed a shift in her and she glanced at Greyson worriedly."This girl seems to kill anyone she is close with," Rogue said. "I don't want somebody as dangerous as her around my sister or my niece and nephew, especially since she's hidden the truth from the majority of you. It makes you think, is she hiding any more dirty little secrets?"Tai shot up from her seat, seething with rage."Look at her, she is a dangerous little thing, isn't she?""Why are you doing this?" Ace cried. "You're purposely infuriating her!""She needs to leave," Raiden called, standing up and looking at his sister in concern. "You need to get her out of here.""Ace!" Greyson commanded. "You hear
"Tai," Ace whispered, tugging at Tai's arm. "Stop, please.""It's fine. I like that she's got flare. It's interesting," Rogue smiled. "It's not surprising that she's got a few anger issues. She must have so much built up guilt after everything she's done over the years."Tai gripped her knife and fork tightly, her breathing rate starting to increase. "Stop it."Rogue shrugged his shoulders innocently. "I'm just trying to figure out exactly who you are. I know everything about everyone in this pack, it's only fair I know everything about you too. Especially when you're a killer."Tai's knife and fork clattered onto the table. Everyone turned to stare at her in shock, minus Ace, Raiden, Brandon and Rogue."You brought me to dinner with a girl that has killed someone!" Stacey gasped. "Jason-""Sh, my sweet." Jason turned to Stacey, brushing her hair behind her ear. He smiled at her and it was the only genuine smile that Indianna had seen all evening. "I wouldn't let anyone hurt you."Sta
