Lilith's POV

Things become harmonious and I start to feel as if I belong as the weeks flash by within the blink of an eye.

Some memories come back to me, little images here and there of the people I think are my parents.

It happens out of nowhere when I'm doing something that triggers a memory.

Like the other morning when I was flipping pancakes I completely zoned out remembering the person I think is my father doing exactly the same thing whilst I sat at a kitchen counter waiting for the pancakes he was cooking.

Or just yesterday when Calley was braiding my hair I remembered the woman I think is my mother doing the same in a bedroom that was decorated in pinks and purples and whites.

Things have also been going swimmingly between Theo and me.

We don't cross paths during the day much, he seems to be overly busy with protecting his pack and training his warriors. He even does boundary checks himself.

He's truly a big part of this pack and takes his role seriously.

    Theo's POVThings become chaotic very quickly.The wolves not only breach my borders but kill three of my men without any second thoughts. My pack members howl out their pain as the loss filters through our link and I have to fight the enormity of the sorrow I feel and ignore the fact that tonight I'll be visiting three mothers and fathers to report their children died because of me and my need to protect a girl I haven't even claimed as my own as of yet. I race with Lucas and Andy towards them strategising a plan on how to prevent them from reaching their target, from reaching Lilith at the centre of my land in the house that I've made a fortress. 'We'll use our numbers to push them back. Attack them just before the borders then leave them over for their pack to take them back. Make an example out of them' I shout as we race through the woods.'Yes alpha' everyone shouts back to me. 'Circle around and come back through the southern woods, protect the house. Lock it down' I demand t

    Lilith's POVI wake groggy with a pounding headache and the stench of something dark wet and woodsy surrounding me, my nostrils burn with the smell only adding to the tension within my head. My lungs tighten at the smell and Abyss’s feelings let me know it’s not only me that the smell is totally unappealing too, but it’s also making Abyss uneasy. It's almost as if I can feel her pacing inside my mind, her anxiety mixing with my own making for my unease to fill my stomach with dread at the mere smell. ‘They're going to hurt you, make it so I can't heal you’ She's been muttering as I fight with my body to open my eyes. They’re heavy as if lead weights are holding them down, I presume the men who took me used something to drug me after I screamed blue murder as they ran with me through the forest. One had shoved me over his shoulder when they had found me in my room at the house, he floated to the floor after jumping out of the window with me in his arms, I say floated because we didn’

    Theo's POVLilith's been missing for three days, gone without a fucking trace. Even though I've had each of my warriors out multiple times to follow any and all scents from the house to borders. My borders are tight as fuck, every single warrior is on rotation and only has twelve hours or less for breaks.I want to feel bad, I do but I can't not when my girls are out there with god knows who god knows where.There have not even been any whispers in the spies I've got in the other packs which are worrisome.She's underground maybe in all sense of the word or maybe figuratively but either way, I'm worried and that's making my judgement less than perfect."Three of the warriors collapsed today, they are starving, dehydrated and tired Theo. I think it's about time we pull them back. Give them a break" Lucas chides me as I sort myself out a sandwich, even buttering the bread and slapping ham between the two slices reminds me of her. Her sandwiches are much nicer, worrisomely nicer."No, th

    Lilith's POV I wash exactly as Theo demanded using the lavender body scrub and loafer. Meticulously I dip myself in the water before scrubbing every inch of skin I have before moving on to my hair. Memorising all the wounds I have I watch in amazement as I rid the last of the horrid-smelling stuff from my skin, the burns and mottled skin healing in front of my eyes.The skin changes colour and knits back together in places in a fast motion.I've never quite seen myself heal this way, except maybe when Theo had licked my wounds.Moving my wrist back and forth I watch as the rope burns change from gaping open to healing shut to a scar pink and bright. Something has awoken in me back there with that man, a feeling of belonging and Abyss has become stronger her call to be with someone almost overwhelming. She pines in my mind, our bond getting stronger as the minutes go by. She mumbles about mates and acceptance but it's so quiet in the far reaches of the back of my mind that I can ba

    Theo's POVLilith's teeth cut into my neck out of nowhere. One moment we were talking about her knowledge of mates, I and Khai included.I feel the bond snap in place Rex jumping around excitedly that Abyss no doubt does too in this moment of clarity. Mark her, mark her Theo Rex pleads with me but I can't. Not yet, not when I don't know the implications of doing such a thing. "Lil" I push her back by her shoulders looking her over as her eyes shift from dark black orbs to the perfect blue eyes I've come to recognise as hers."I'm so sorry Theo. I. I didn't.. that wasn't me" she winces back as she no doubt feels my disappointment that it wasn't her decision to mark me.I try to reign in my emotions buts the funny thing about mate bonds, is you can't really hide anything from your mate. "Why is it so overwhelming, why do I feel like this?" She asks sadly. "It's a mate bond, you have a connection to me now. You can feel everything I do.

I don't think I need it because I'm pretty much one hundred per cent healed but he's adamant I take the time my body needs to come back from the ordeal of being drugged for days with Christ knows what whilst doused in wolfsbane. Dr Knight has come back to see me three times since I've come home and each time he asks to try something different making a small cut here or there and he records just how quick it takes me to heal. Each cut heals without a trace which in and of itself is amazing. My skin returned to normal without marks within twelve hours, or thereabouts. He wants to study me, to put me under rigorous testing to see how serious a wound I could heal by myself. He's explained what wolfsbane is and why other wolves use it on each other. I won't pretend to be ecstatic to know that wolfsbane can kill a wolf in large quantities and I hate the fact that even touchin

I run through the woods to my underground bunker where Lucas is holding three of Damien Moon's best warriors, they’ve been here for five days waiting for me and Lucas is starting to get impatient with me. Yeah, I had to pull a few strings with my spies but shit they worked and the price I paid to have these fuckers in my bunker is well worth it.I specifically chose the closest men, the ones whose memories would be tainted with hushed words between themselves and their alpha... maybe even their future alpha for a reason.
