~ Knox ~ I should have known a quiet drive in the country lanes would be off the cards now. Hector was already waiting by my cycle when I came back downstairs, his warriors already assembled and waiting. At least he agreed to me driving Josie just the two of us. I didn’t fancy a back full of warri
“Fine, but it’s waiters and chefs that have been approved only.” “What about him?” I gesture my head to the man standing at mine and Josie’s table. On closer inspection he doesn’t even have menus in his hand. She turns, her eyes meeting mine…a look upon them that I didn’t need a mind-link with h
~ Josie ~ “Just slow down…he might have been lying.” Knox’s hand moves from the car’s gear stick and on to my upper thigh. No doubt he could sense my wolf, she was pushing against me. It was like she was biting down on a bone and wanted more. She wasn’t willing to give up until she knew everyth
“What has Auntie Alora got to do with this?” Jace was the one to ask the question swirling around my head. “I have a younger half brother, his name is Than Sable and he is the Alpha of the Amber Desert pack.” Dad turns to us but keeps his reassuring hands on Mum. “An Alpha?” My voice repeats.
~ Josie ~ “You married someone before meeting your mate?” I can’t stop the words that blurt out of my mouth. In some twisted romanticised way I always thought Mum and Dad had always existed as one. To think of Mum with someone else…married to someone else before being with Dad, before having us…se
~ Josie ~ I follow Mum as she moves back towards the sofa, curling her feet up as she flicks the television back on. Her eyes stare at the screen but I can tell she isn’t watching it, just making herself look like she is. She is lost in thought, lost in memory. “Mum?” I softly try to regain her
~ Knox ~ We greet the warriors outside, the leader nodding to me as I stand next to Jaxon. “Is Miss Josie okay?” His eyes firmly locked on mine. “She’s fine, I don’t think he was a real threat.” “Yes, I think it was just a case of wrong timing. The bouncers on the door said he entered with
“He knew who Josie was and that I was the alpha trainer, he didn’t mention Beta Alora.” I shrug with my response. “Good…that’s good. He must not know she is here. We should leave, before news reaches him.” He repeats with clear determination. “I think it’s for the best.” Hector concludes, as he w
The more it continues the bloodier it gets. Thick blood sprays across the courtyard ground, the smell of it churning my insides…just the thought of Jace bleeding is sending me into a frantic state of panic…one that I refuse to sink into. I had to remain strong, I had to mask any emotion. I couldn’
~ Cleo ~ “No Jace, you can’t do that.” I gasp out. “Oh yes I can.” “But the Clear Waters. It’s your destiny, your birth right…I wouldn’t expect that from you.” No…no this is messed up, he can’t do that. Not for me. I wouldn’t want him to do that. “You are my destiny Cleo, not lands…not a t
“Your Luna? Are you fucked up in the head?” Jaxon responds as Jace seethes by his side. Trying to keep his wolf contained. “Cleo is my luna, the pack’s luna…and the child..” Than stops, an almight roar bellowing out of Jace, a smirk forming across his face before he continues. “…will be my heir.
~ Cleo ~ The three of them prowl towards us…like gods disguised in human form that threaten to release a new hell on earth. Their kind of hell. They walk side by side until Jace takes a wider stride forward, a triangle formation settling amongst the three of them. Warriors creep in behind the
“Still spreading lies I see.” Medea’s tongue clicks out. “Why would they lie about this? Why would Kaia lie about that.” I almost spit out of her, anger boiling within me. “She’s a pathological liar. Everything she says is a lie.” “No…I’ve known her my entire life. She’s nothing like that…” “
~ Cleo ~ The screams increase…their desperate cries becoming more frantic…and my heart breaks when I hear children crying out. No matter what has happened between Than and my family, the pack members were the innocent ones and I refused to let them be punished for accepting me. “Alpha?” Beta
“All me, I fucking know.” I sigh out, releasing my hold on him and running my hands through my hair. “What do you want to do?” Jaxon takes a step closer to me, his jaw tense…his eyes burning with rage. “Who the fuck is this Than? I need her away from him, no matter what…if he thinks he can claim
~ Jace ~ “Jace…JACE!” A hard slap around my face forces my eyes wide open, my jaw aching as both Knox and Jaxon stand above me. My eyes search the room…Josie was passed out on the floor, Callie crouched down beside her holding her hand. “What happened?” I grunt out, rubbing my jaw line, tryin
“The boy’s made a right pig’s mess of this!” Dad growls out as he moves to my side, his hand wrapping around my waist as he starts almost hoisting me in the air. “What are you doing.” Kaia looks to him in shock. “We are leaving, now.” Dad grunts out, lifting me. “No…I cant.” “I won’t let that
