Elija opened the cell door and placed her foot on the smooth cement before narrowing her eyes at me.

"Sorry I almost cut your finger off." I spoke too quickly and maybe it wasn't a good idea to remind him. He ran a hand over his wrists as he glared at me. His nails had already stopped bleeding and his wrists were clotting again.

Incredible.

"You did good." He said, before resting his hand on top of my right shoulder and walking out of there.

"Wait." I ran and got in front of him before I finished climbing the stairs. and close the curtains first." I finished upstairs still looking at him and opened the door. The house was quiet and blissfully empty.

I sniffed and walked to the back windows. I looked outside and ended up seeing a lone or two standing back near the trees. I closed the curtains and when I turned around I saw Elija heading into the kitchen. She walked calmly as if she weren't in danger of being shot in the back of the head. She still held the massive pliers in one

    AmeliaForgive me, but you missed it the moment you decided to step inside."Hey!" I heard Bram's damn voice and both men turned their heads in our direction at the same time I fired at the lone left who was standing by the counter. However, despite Bram's distraction, the bullet went straight through the loner's forehead. His black eyes stared into mine until at some point they lost their sparkle. And it didn't take long for him to fall to his knees on the floor. And suddenly my breathing got too heavy.The other loner cursed. He had dodged Elija's lunge at the last second, and the Alpha only managed to sink his teeth into his forearm before the loner pulled out in fright. The gun was pointed at me mid-act and the bullet ended up going through my arm like pure fire. I screamed in pain, and reflexively dropped the gun to the ground. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Bram getting up slowly, still dazed. I heard snarling and more snarling, and another shot rang out somewhere. My

    AmeliaI could recognize that chocolate color anywhere. I lowered the gun in my hands and felt my eyes blur with tears."Amelia!" Elija screamed my name. "BEHIND, BEHIND YOU!"We hadn't paid attention to the front door...I heard the shot, and the gun that was in my hand fell. I couldn't take my weight and my knees hit the hard floor and then my shoulder. The pain was something I didn't feel. Maybe my brain hadn't had time to send the signal, maybe that part had shut down from the shock. But one thing I knew, everything was spinning and going dark."SHIT... Amelia!" For the first time I heard Elija's excited voice. I still managed to look at him for a second before my reflection blurred. I heard a shot and then another and another. Those hollow gunshots wouldn't stop until I heard snarling and snarling through my poor vision.I closed my eyes without even wanting to. I knew Bram's body was torn apart right behind me. I didn't want to think about it, but I couldn't help it. He had take

    MarkIt had been hours and still nothing for Sarah to return. Liane and Sury were in a nervous state, but me, I was a thousand times worse."I'll be right back." I said and ran to the back door."Hey Mark, don't you dare leave this house." I ignored Sury and ran barefoot in that snow before changing. The intense pain almost broke my bones, but I ran following the scent Sarah had left that was now faint in the air. It was snowing and I couldn't help but think that I was to blame for all of this. Those hunters, they came because of me.I saw some bloodstains in the snow where those bodies were and I also saw the tracks as if they had been dragged away. I followed all the way to where they ended and came across the place where the snow was thinner. Where Sarah had probably buried the bodies.Where is she? Where are you please...My blood was hot and cold at the same time, something primal poking at me like spikes. She was my Alpha's partner, she was my Alpha, and she was gone after savin

    "Because your beautiful companion is in his hands..."And when I heard that, my whole body froze. And anger turned to ice in my blood. I heard James gasp a few steps behind me. The air grew heavy around me.I must be hearing it wrong..."What did you say?"That was smart, wasn't it? Wait for the idiots to come and leave Alpha alone. "The anger I was feeling inside me was already way beyond my control when I found myself walking towards him. Wanting to rip that head off at once. "I smelled you on her, you know? "I grabbed the bastard's coat and pulled him to face me. The wolves around us seemed to grow restless. Perhaps worried about what I would do, or wanting to kill him in my place, I didn't care at the moment. "Calm down big man, if I don't come back by tomorrow alive and in one piece, Bruce will shoot her pretty little head. "That word was the only one I didn't want to hear."If you lay a finger on her, I'll break your filthy bodies in half. "Abell dared to laugh again, but it did

    SarahI woke up with my body and neck still sore. I looked around slowly and my hope faded again.I realized that I was in the same cold place and not on that soft and comfortable mattress, lying next to my partner. It hadn't just been a nightmare. The cement was freezing under me, but at least the railings weren't silver. I could lean against the corner of the cell and cringe. However, they were just as firm and untouchable. I'd already tried breaking in, bending, hitting and kicking. They didn't even creak.There was no noise from inside or outside other than the sharp wind that slithered through the gap in the window next to the cell. I sat up feeling my skin crawl with cold. It felt like dawn or morning, but it was too dark in here to be sure. The weather might just be bad enough outside.My stomach shuddered with hunger and I had a huge urge to pee.I leaned my head against the railing and sighed."It's going to be alright..." I whispered to myself, to my wolf and to my possible

    SarahI don't know how much time had passed when I lifted my head from the cold cell floor. My eyes felt heavy and my body felt numb as I realized I was still transformed. Luckily or unluckily, my wolf's thick fur was what protected me from the sharp cold.The small barred window at the top of the cell now looked wide open. The wind was strong and had moved her even more. The handful of snow in my paws said enough. It was a heavy snowfall.My body shook. From cold and maybe some reaction from the tranquilizer they threw at me. For the second time. Two darts before my muscles refused to move. And now they still looked too saggy for me to gain a footing. I had to get up. Move before I freeze.My breath was minuscule. My reflexes were still compromised and it wasn't even getting me desperate enough. Even when I remembered that it must be dusk. And the time limit that Bruce warned was running out.The minutes passed, I started trying to steady myself on the railings until I sat down. I bl

    StanleyI couldn't get to the bastard as fast as I'd like. He was surrounded by his wolves and they were very insistent creatures. I had to kill everyone who stood in front of me, everyone who tried to stop me. They only managed to slow me down a little and make me even angrier.I rolled with the bastards who could take me down. Teeth and claws clashing and shredding flesh. The snow melted in the heat of the fight and soaked our fur. Because of dominance, most didn't have the courage to attack me and I was grateful for that. The shots couldn't divert my attention and all I could ask was that no bullet found my body on the path or any of my wolves. I couldn't stop.I tore at the second-in-command's face as he pounced on me. The wolf was fast. His teeth dug into my ear in the process, but my ear was nothing compared to the agony of seeing Sarah still lying in the snow. Yes, with each wolf I took down I looked back at her to see if she was still breathing.The wolf finished ripping off h

    JamesSarah was curled up in my lap with several bruises and cuts all over her body. Silver burns and even teeth marks on her arms. She had probably fought those wolves before they brought her in. It was obvious that they had been forced to drug her.My sister. Fuck, she was my sister.The connection between the two of us from the first moment we saw each other was no coincidence. It was a blood bond. One that Elija recognized the first time she caught his scent. And the instant he screamed my mother's name, it hit me. I've never seen a single picture of my mother. And they were separated from me when I was very young. I could barely remember the smell or the features, but my father...He had a lot to explain...I got into the backseat and sat down with her still on my lap. I rested my forehead on hers and hugged her. Her fingers felt like ice cubes as I curled them into my chest. William soon appeared and left Sury in the front seat. She was hysterical as she stared at Sarah and star

    EpilogueSix years later..Ever since the twins started walking, the house was a mess a minute after it was tidied up. And boy, if my blood wasn't wolf, I'd be crazy right now.I was lying on the rug in the living room resting for a while. The sofa was out of the way because I had pushed it so I could get a cart that Hazel had let roll under it and I was enjoying a few seconds while the twins were in the room playing.But that didn't last long."Mommy!" I heard Hailey's voice and looked up just long enough to see the red mane running towards me before she jumped on top of me. I laughed and rolled with her on the rug."Where's your brother?" I asked and she looked at me with those caramel eyes."He's mad because he said I took his cart."What cart?"A red one." I looked over at the coffee table and saw the cart I'd just grabbed from under the couch."Hazel!" I called him and after a few seconds, he appeared in the hall. The unruly black hair was already down to his ears. His eyes, also

    SarahThe next day I said I was going to call James with the news, but Stanley cut me off by saying he wasn't ready for visitors yet. I looked at his face with Hazel in his lap and laughed as Hailey slept in her crib after nursing. Hazel had more trouble falling asleep than she did."Aren't you ready, Daddy?" I asked wryly and Stanley nodded as he looked at Hazel with his hazel eyes still wide. He and his sister were the cutest things in the world.At night, Stanley took my cell phone and handed it to me."Here." He looked apologetic. "I was such an asshole, sorry. You can warn your brother and father about our children." He murmured as he felt our lips together."It's okay, I understand how it is, Stanley. I won't blame you for wanting some time with me and the twins before the others arrive." He smoothed my cheek and I picked up the phone. I went to the couch and sat down already dialing James's number. Stanley sat on the arm of the couch and watched me."Hello? Little sister?" Jame

    Six months later...SarahI'm not going to say that pregnancy is easy and beautiful, because most of the time it isn't. I was already exhausted and hadn't even given birth yet. I just wanted to eat and sleep. I had put on twenty kilos and my back was asking for relief. And Stanley loved every second of every day because he wasn't the one pregnant.But, of course, there were also the magical moments. Like, for example, the first time the baby moved at 3 months and I screamed Stanley to feel it with me. I also loved rubbing my stomach and imagining perfectly the little thing that was there inside me. I loved lying on the grass in the early morning because it was the only position I didn't feel my back screaming for mercy. And it was summer, so the weather was perfect and convenient to enjoy.And the last moment I loved was when we decided on the names. That was actually last night when I couldn't sleep. Because apparently it was my baby's favorite time to kick my belly. Stanley kept tal

    SarahA week had passed and there were only two more left for christmas. I'm not going to say that I wasn't really anxious to find out if I was really carrying a puppy inside me or not, because until now, I hadn't felt anything different.And that has been very frustrating.I asked Liane over and over again how long it took her to find out she was pregnant and she simply replied that it was much faster for us.For humans, it was normal to feel the first symptoms after the second or third week, while for wolves, this decreased by half.The thing is, a week had already passed. Liane just said I didn't have to worry about it and keep trying. It was obvious that I was. After all that hell we'd been through, I actually grabbed Stanley by the neck and pulled him into the bedroom whenever we had time. And we harnessed each other at all times.It was impossible for me not to get pregnant with him... Right?I found myself opening the fridge for the tenth time just to cut up another piece of sa

    MandyMark was shirtless and yet the wide open window let in all the icy wind. However, the temperature inside was still incredibly pleasant."I already told you to go. As you can see, I'm fine." He pointed at himself and turned around."Well? That doesn't look right to me. You missed class today."I'm just tired."Ahem..." I looked at his body and his back. Messy hair and skin glistening with sweat. "Look at me."Mandy, go away. Please. You don't want to be here and it's a bad idea."If I didn't want to be here, I wouldn't be here. Let me help you." My body was starting to get weirder with every second I spent inside this room.Mark turned away again and went to the window to close it when I started to shiver. What he didn't know was that it wasn't because of the cold that I was shivering."Sury is down there?" He asked."She was on her way out when I arrived. It's just the two of us here." I saw his shoulders tense."I'm sorry, I asked her not to come to your house."It's okay." I w

    Stanley"You're coming into heat and need a female."What?" He got up out of the snow so fast the snow on his arms flew into his head. "No. No. No. Obviously not."You're already sixteen and you turned a few weeks ago. You knew very well your heat was going to come at some point, didn't you? Did Sury talk to you about it?"She said something like that." He covered his face with his hands and bent his knees. Probably distressed. "What the fuck... What the fuck!"I know how you feel. During my first heat I locked myself in my room and waited for it to pass for three weeks without seeing anyone. It didn't go away. Much less did it get better. My father forced me to wake up to life and said it was just a passing." I looked at him still desolate. "It's something natural for our species, Mark."I don't want that." I cracked a smile, then scratched my nose to hide it."I know you don't. I'm your Alpha, I'm just trying to help you." I heard him mutter an expletive."And what did you do?"What

    SarahAfter lunch, Stanley came back from the call and took a deep breath before putting the device back in his pocket. The pale eyes landed on me and then I saw there was something going on."I need to go to the pack house. It looks like Mark's human friend is there and the wolves who didn't know about the situation are worried."Situation?" I asked and Stanley looked at me as if he understood something I didn't."When you were captured. Mark ended up opening his mouth and saying that Antony had known about us for a few days. Mark transformed and he saw. He thought that the hunters had come because his friend knew."That's why he looked so scared..."I could remember his hands shaking..."Poor thing... I'll come along."I hadn't seen any of them since I was captured and I needed to see them with my own eyes."I expected you to come with me." He walked over and placed a kiss on my cheek. His pheromones had already returned to normal again. I mean, as much as possible. Because even after

    Stanley"How often are you two in heat?" Sarah asked me as she stroked my chest. It was torture. Complete. And I was holding back a lot not to go to the second round."I've only been in heat twice before." Her eyes widened and her beautiful fingers stopped stroking my skin."Swear?"It's the two obligatory heats of a wolf. For both sexes." She furrowed her brows even more confused. So I continued to explain. "When we first turned at sixteen and when we entered wolf maturity." She gaped."After that you never had any again?"After that, males only come into heat with the potential female or mate. Through her heats." And then Sarah went back to running her fingers along my ribs. They settle down. Probably when you're in heat, I'll join you too." Then her fingers stopped again and she lifted her face to get a better look at me."Go in..." She bit her lip in a naughty way. "Okay, that's quite convenient." I narrowed my eyes and couldn't help but smile."Convenient, isn't it...?" I turned

    SarahI felt something warm touch my face. I ignored it still sleepy and moved in that warm and cozy nest. The scent of mint and musk was all over the place and that's all I needed to know. My hands moved over soft, silky fur before I felt it moving too.I opened one eye slowly and that's when I saw the huge body of the black wolf lying beside me. It took up practically the entire space of the bed and was glued to me. And the warm thing I felt on my face was his nose against my cheek.Stanley must have shifted in his sleep and not even noticed. It was probably his wolf's unconscious way of healing faster. His delicious scent was all over the bed and the bandage on his belly had come off in the transformation.I hugged his body and settled my head on his neck before I heard a hoarse growl coming from deep inside his chest. The sound of his wolf only made me more enthralled. And then I felt a sniffle in my hair."Sarah..."My eyes widened when I heard that voice in my head. I quickly li
