“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
~ Josie ~ This was all so surreal, was I even awake because this felt like some kind of heaven. I should be mad at him, I am mad at him…but I can’t deny that urge to be with him…it’s multiplied. If I found him sexy before…nothing would prepare me for how that desire for him now is. I can fee
But as soon as Jace finds out he is the father, then all hell will break loose. The relationship between the Varon’s and us will become strained. Which will isolate my brother as alpha. That is a risk I cannot take. “Cleo?” Concern is edged upon my brother’s face, his brows furrowing as he moves
~ Cleo ~ Jace has found his mate? The words that leave Mum’s lips are like a thousand knives being stabbed into my heart. My heart…not bleeding out, no that would be far too easy. Instead it feels as if my heart has been torn into a million tiny pieces…then set on fire…just to really make s
“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
