~ Knox ~ The waiting is a living hell. The medical staff closed off the viewing area, meaning we were waiting in the corridor outside the theatre room. My body had sunk me to the floor and I hadn’t moved since. I planned to stay here for as long as it took to complete her operation. My knees we
“What?” Hector’s crestfallen demeanour shatters my already breaking heart. “Alpha Kaia demanded she was placed on to life support..I can take you to her now.” He states with a tensed tone. “I don’t understand.” Hector softly states, his hands running through his hair before landing on his jawline
~ Knox ~ I have no way of measuring time at the moment, I’ve not even left the hospital room. None of us have. I couldn’t even tell you if it were day or night outside. My lungs were stale from the lack of fresh air, my stomach past the point of hunger and my throat dry. Food and fluids have
“It is time for us to say goodbye.” I’m watching a living nightmare unfold. Each person says goodbye, each person places a kiss on her forehead and a gentle whisper in her ear. How can they so easily give up, why are they not letting her body heal. Give her that more time she needs in order to r
~ Knox ~ “Where the fuck have you been?” Both Jaxon and Hector roar at Jace as he steps further into the room. He must have just arrived, he still had a black holdall in his hands. I do a double take at first…was this really Jace? Gone were the boyish charming looks…instead he was lean, he had t
Peacefully unaware of everyone breaking down around her. She wouldn’t want this. She wouldn’t want them to live like this. Visiting her everyday, not healing…letting grief suck the life out of them. She was giving, she was healing. Sobs follow as the doctor turns off the monitor, her heart rate fl
~Josie~ I can’t help but lean into his touch, my body moulding into his hold…those tingles at his touch feel even stronger somehow. He was warm and for some reason I was cold. So cold. There was no doubt who was holding me, his potent scent was calling out to me…leather and sandalwood. I’d happily
“I knew the daughter of the White Wolf was in hiding…no Josie you didn’t die…you’ve been awoken.” Doctor Abel comments from the back, as he takes a step towards me…a big grin forming upon his face. “We must share the news.” He says as he continues to smile at me. “They already know…” I smile back
“Since when did I take relationship advice from you.” “Since you get to hold your mate in bed every night. Just calm the fuck down Jace, you’d know if she was injured. Besides, she’s a tough cookie Cleo, you need to give her more credit. Fucking scared the shit out of me when she tried to threaten
~ Jace ~ What a fucking nightmare. Not only did we leave not having any further leads…but Jaxon was stuck in a state of fighting against his own wolf for control. He could hardly move, his entire body trembling as his wolf fights for control, trying to find a sign of weakness in the barrier to p
Now was the moment of trust, I had to trust Ozborne, he hadn’t let me down this far… “Can you handle this?” I place a pistol gun out to him, offering it out for him to use. “Yes Alpha.” He takes it, examining the piece before removing the barrell and checking the number of bullets it was loaded w
~ Jace ~ Jaxon and I had driven throughout the night, heading up towards the mountainous region that in truth was a well known rogue area. A place that if you were in a pack, you didn’t tend to visit, and for good reason. Rogue life was deadly, vicious and cruel. One day you might be a ruler, th
Again the move not going unnoticed by him, or my own father. Who takes a step forward, his alpha aura pushing forward and mixing with mine. A smirk finally forms in the corner of the lips of this Alpha Darnell. His lips spreading out further into a devious smile before he pulls his aura back com
~ Cleo ~ I follow Callie into the alpha house, the internal design reminding me of the alpha house back at the Amber Desert pack. A lot of dark colours, riches on display to remind pack members of the hierarchy and where they belong in it. Perhaps Medea and Louise had a lot in common. “We
“Yes sir, born and raised. ” “You don’t smell like a rogue.” I comment. “Jace kind of made the beach club into a little pack, I guess I get away with it on a technicality.” He lifts his fingers into the air, making a quotation movement with both hands. “So what’s with the hat…and the whistle
~ Cleo ~ “We arent looking for trouble Dad. I just don’t feel comfortable letting Callie go alone. If Jace was here, he would go with her. They won’t do anything with another pack’s luna around. Besides, Ares is coming with us.” Dad blocks the very vehicle that Callie and I both plan to take.
I was different now, not only was I a marked woman…I was a Luna. I had a new strength from within me. The pack needs me to remain strong, which is why I have decided to return back today. The Varon’s still needed space to mourn and my own parents wanted to also give them time alone. Especially Kai
