I look at my glass, the soda isn’t going down as well as the shots but I promised Jaxon I would keep an eye on her and the others. I can’t do that to the best of my ability downing more alcohol. I could already feel the strength of the shots I had already consumed tonight burning off, it wouldn’t
~ Josie ~ Blood is sprayed across my neck, jaw line and even my cami top from George’s split lip as his head is held against the bar top by Knox’s firm hold. “What the fuck did you just say to her?” Knox growls out, his body heaving with anger as George tries to fight against his hold. His head
I’m also not innocent in this, I am a bitch to George, completely using him for one purpose only. I’ll finish it, but I need to do it on good terms, I can’t have tension between the two packs. “Complicated how?” “He’s from my Mum’s pack…” “You are the daughter of the alphas, no one gets to tal
“You’ve told me I was too young for you before, here…when I was 16…then at the cabin.” My eyes drop down to the floor. “That was you? Shit…I had no idea.” His eyes widen I. Shock. At least he remembers me amongst his many of conquest I’m sure he’s had. He’s got an entire decade ahead of me in slee
~ Josie ~ The club security offered us a ride back to the pack. I had planned to stay at Maya’s for a few days but with Cleo now here I couldn’t leave her with my brothers for entertainment. Sitting in the back seat with the girls, my eyes keep finding Knox’s in the rear-view mirror as he sits in
As we exit the vehicle, I move in...demanding to know what has happened. “What has happened, where has Jace gone?” “We don’t know sweetheart, that’s what we are trying to find out.” Mum responds to me, her arms crossed as she looks at Jaxon expectantly. “I told you; I don’t know what is going on…
~ Knox ~ A handful of times Jaxon has let his anger get the better of him in my presence, I thought he was on top of it. The alpha training programme teaches the future leaders to navigate around pack business, handle political influence from other packs and from even within, and most importantly
Entering the house, Hector is waiting for us in the hallway, I move to go upstairs when he requests that I also enter the office. Both alpha’s sit behind their desks, giving off that thick sense of power. Alpha Kaia’s eyes land on her son, before looking at me. Her eyes widening as she sees the mes
“I mean, did somebody force you…” “What, no Mum, of course not. Why would you say such a thing?” Why would she ever think that, what a thing to say. “Well whose is it…somebody within this pack?” “No…” I close my eyes. Here we go. “Okay, so another pack…which one?” “Mum..can we not do thi
~ Cleo ~ “I don’t think I can do this.” I felt nauseous with the nerves that were crippling my body. Telling Dad was one thing…I didn’t actually tell him, Doctor Sophia informed him as the Alpha. But to say the words out loud to Mum….I don’t think I can muster the courage. “I’ll be right ne
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
