Lilith's POVKhai, Theo and Dane are sitting in the living area of Tabitha's and Leo's home.And there lies Leo, unresponsive yet his eyes open as he endlessly stares into the room."What's wrong with him?" I ask as Calley and I stop inside the room.I notice she's hiding behind me, avoiding Danes gaze as if she thinks he's a danger.Her emotions are palpable and I can taste each and every one of them.Fear.Anxiety.Upset.Angst.The lift could go on.But not one of them is it relates to happiness.I wonder whether this is solely to do with fact that Dane saw her gift or whether it has more to do with Cadence and that situation.But now is not the time to ask her why she feels the way she does."We had a breach, Leo was injected with a lethal amount of wolfsbane," Theo enlightens us.I nod, knowing he will explain more later, and that's fine by me.Obviously they have corrected the situation and it is under control and I can smell the distant wiff of Dr Knight, so I know Leo has gain
Dane's POVThere are many things in life that feel like a disaster but knowing I’ve had a sibling for a while that I’ve never been told about has given me a reason to hate my ancestors even more.I was name the ‘lone Wolf’, a child that has been dumped within the tree lined land.I grew alone, learning how to fend for myself.Hunt for myself.Bed myself.And that’s greatly affected the way in which I view the world as it is now.When things spring out of the woodworks it affects me more than the average person.Yet I’m expected to deal with it in the same manner.And I presume being a warm blooded white wolf doesn’t help.I started to exhibit gifts around my thirteenth birthday, my wolf bringing along gifts with her.Yes, her… my wolf is a female despite the fact I am a male. An alpha male at that.Yet despite her being a she, our life has moved rapidly and we’ve bonded in the same manner as if she was a match in gender.I suppose I should be thankful, in all honesty, that Celeste had
Theo’s POVI hadn’t awoken in the night when the dead girl breached the borders.And I now know why after carefully looking over her remains. She’s a long term visitor, a relative of the old lady that lives out in the old windmill.She frequents here often and has become a person I thought I could trust.And now I have to contact Agatha and reveal that he dear beloved granddaughter was going to take Leo, Tabitha and baby Arlo to the highest paying bidder.It is not a conversation I wish to have but I cannot conceal her fate.Not when she visits every Sunday like clockwork to help out her gran with the chores.I hadn’t realised she was a shifter of another kind.But then again it was her mother that had left to chase her mate and that must have been a male of a different species.I walk silently through the wooded area that backs into the old windmill.I haven’t visited out here for a while now, Agatha isn’t the type of pack member that likes to be bothered.She’s always kept herself,
Lilith’s POVThe days after finding out about baby Arlo’s gift, I use my time to researched about gifts of a similar trope.Obviously Arlo, Calley’s brother holds much the same gift. His ability to be invisible is just as big a commodity.I’ve been trying to figure out whether baby Arlo does the same? Or whether he can teleport and that’s how he disappears.Unfortunately, because he can’t talk and explain things, we will not know the true answer but I’m leaning towards the latter.How did he turn up here in the pack house if not for a ability to transport himself between places?Either way, his gift brings me happiness.Lora will no doubt have some type of gift, I can feel it deep within her already.And Arlo having a gift that might match her abilities is gives them something in common to base a relationship on.Yes, I might be clutching at straws but I really want them to choose one another so Lora doesn’t get left with the other option her life has lined up.Looking down to her I s
Khai’s POVI think we’ve all had a little bit of a shock regarding recent events and that’s left Lilith emotional, to say the least.She’s requested for us to attend a brunch with her and who were we to say no?So taking time out of our busy schedules we do just that, letting along the walk towards our favourite spot at the waterfall.I’ve sensed sadness in Theo over the last few days. Especially after he went out to the windmill that I hadn’t known about to talk to the old lady that refuses to live within the centre of the pack.Apparently it had been her granddaughter that had threatened Tabitha and Leo and he felt the need to walk out there and reveal her death and the reasoning behind it.It saddens me that he had to do that alone, that he hadn’t asked me to walk with him and stand beside him but I think he bared the responsibility because of his guilt for not waking up.But the thing is she wasn’t trespassing, not to him.Apparently the girl frequently visited, running errands fo
Hati’s POVDinner is… an unforgettable affair.I seemed to have waisted my time, travelling up there to the god realm where everything seems quiet and tranquil compared to the earth realm.Zeus sits with me at the dinner table but the one person I travelled there to see never turns up.He made excuse after excuse yet the time went from minutes to hours until I come back down here to my prison, to Earth.Why had he taken me up there for me to sit with him and joy see the one person I had wished to see?And why had he ridden me from the god realm as soon as he realised that she wouldn’t be joining us?It’s not as if he had given me any notice, I was gone. Dropped off in an instant right outside my house as if I hadn’t really travelled up there at all.The whole thing left my angry, the need to hurt something or someone running through my veins like blood from my heart.I begged myself not to, but Belle was the one to suffer my fall out.I had taken her into the bedroom, bent her over th
Leo’s POVI have a headache that’s feels as if my mind is being pulverised in a machine.If I hadn’t seen my own reflection I wouldn’t have believed that blood was not seeping through my ears, nose and mouth. Yet the mirror tells me there’s nothing wrong with me.Tabitha has been more than attentive in her state of sorrow as she keeps apologising for putting Arlo before me.I wish I could reassure her more than I have in the last few days since waking up.If never want her to out Arlo anywhere but first, even if that meant my death.He is our future, he deserves his life and the further of being an alpha of his and Lora’s pack.I have lived, I’ve ran my own pack. Found my mate and mated with her to created our beautiful little boy.I’ve lived my life and I’m not unhappy with the outcome of my journey.I never looked forward to my future, not until I met Tabitha.It was her that sparked that something inside of me to want a future, to crave children and a home.She changed everything
Lilith's POVThe boys enjoy the food I prepared and we all eat happily.Even Lora gets to taste some of the chocolate I packed, Theo places a small amount on his finger and dips his finger in her mouth.I'm unsure when baby's start to eat, but it doesn't seem bad for her to taste things.And she thoroughly enjoys what he gives her.I'm nice we're done eating we pack away the basket together, ensuring everything's repacked for me to take home.But to my surprise both Botha start to strip, taking their tops off and then their shorts.I watch with bated breath, enjoying the show they are giving.My eyes roam their bodies, dipping with every muscle as I go.They've both such good bodies. Theo's is sturdy, and unchanged but beautiful and full of muscle.Khai's is growing, gaining muscle in places he never had defined muscle before. And I find because of this change my mouth drools more over him than Theo.I never covered for him to change so drastically, but then again he works out more.
