Kaia POV After staying clear of the office, I hear the front door slam shut and Than’s vehicle drive away. I wasn’t in a hurry to be anywhere near him any time soon, he was odd and I wanted to know more from Alora. It made more sense why she was keen to remain at the Nightshade Reformed pack when
Hector POV The Doctor bursts through the door, as Kaia slowly stands up as I rip her towards me, placing her safely within my arms, pissed off at myself for letting her get so close to potential danger. Something was wrong…something was wrong through the bond with Rosa. She wanted to cause harm, sh
Hector POV I had questions for Jude and I’ll be damned if I leave Kaia alone at my pack. It was his pack’s turn to hold a group pack banquet and I wasn’t going to go, but I think it would help Kaia to get to know other pack leaders, especially before her council hearing. Also long term, it would
Kaia POV What was he thinking… I hear him call after me as I traipsed wet around Jude’s house, leaving soggy footprints on his carpeted stairs, but I was too fuming to stop and dry my feet. All I wanted to know is if I could remember to swim, and I wanted to do it privately. Beta Edmund had agre
Kaia POV It is half way through the banquet and I have been introduced to mostly everyone, apparently a new alpha was still expected this evening but hadn’t turned up yet. I remembered a few names from the list Aubrey talked me through but there were a lot of Alphas and Lunas to remember. Some spo
Kaia POV If Alora was in trouble, I needed to do something and it couldn’t wait. I can see eyes of the guests looking at me as I hastily move through the crowd, whispers at my change in demeanour, excusing myself as I knock elbows, squeeze past males who glimpse down my cleavage from my closeness..
Kaia POV A crowd forms, even though it is the middle of the night. Word has gotten around, plus they must feel my presence through the pack bond. Even now, more pack members come out of their front doors to my return for themselves. I wasn’t prepared for what greeted me… They are like the walki
Kaia POV “Five hours, give me five hours and my warriors can be here.” Hector slams his fist down on the desk in my alpha office. He was pissed off at me for not giving him any warning on what I have just done, on the attack I am about to launch. “Thank you Hector, but your pack is on the council
I may not have been the one that caused Josie’s attack or the attack on the pack but I had been silent. I had ghosted my entire family…who had been through hell. Who had clearly needed me. Shame washes over me. “Look had I of known I would have…” “Stayed? I don’t know why the fuck you left for
~ Jace ~ “I knew you shouldn’t have come.” Josie turns to Knox, removing his arm from around her just as I push my chest into his. “What the fuck is your problem?” I growl out, my eyes now inches from his. He might be pissed at me, just like the rest of my family, but what gives him the right
“Yes, well he is the future alpha of this pack. Each time he takes away responsibility from Dad, his muscles expand. Once he is full on alpha, he’ll be like a brick house.” “I don’t think he likes me.” She sighs out, moving to the mirror above the sink where she checks her slightly smudged mascara
~ Jace ~ As soon as the words leave my mouth my phone vibrates in my front trouser pocket. I reach for it, pulling it out…her name flashing up on my home screen. Cleo. The one person I had hurt more than my own family…and that is really saying something. I knew what I had done, walked out on
his hand to Callie to enter into the house. Callie follows him, her long brown hair bouncing with her movement, her skin sunkissed by the recent heatwave at the hotel resort. She had travelled down in a black sports bra, black leggings and a flannel shirt which coordinated well, only enhancing he
~ Jace ~ Taking that first step back into Dark Phantom territory wasn’t easy. I didn’t call ahead, incase I changed my mind last minute. This was my home, all of my childhood memories were here. Sure, we visited the Clear Waters pack many a times, but I always feared I would never get the same
I was starting to let my body shed. “I can’t keep it.” I whisper out. “Why not?” “It would bring shame upon the family, you and Mum will never forgive me.” “When have we ever put that on you. When have we ever made you feel that way?” It pains me to see the frown form upon his face. Truthfully
“Cleo, you really should give your parents more credit.” “Sophia please.” I plead with her, my voice desperate. “You’ll need the night to sleep on it. I have an appointment first thing, be here at 8am. If you still feel the same as you do right now, then I will put measures in place…” “Thank yo
~ Cleo ~ “You’ve done a test I take it?” Doctor Sophia asks me, as I sit in the chair on the other side of her desk. I was rarely in here nowadays, compared to my childhood. Sophia’s predecessor always on standby to soothe Mum’s worries from a simple cut or graze…the normality of childhood. If I
