Lilah

Linc tries to stop me moving any further. Just like the others, he had been forced to his knees. Struggling to breathe and finding it nearly impossible to speak. His honey eyes search mine. They had a slight glaze to them, maybe he was trying to mindlink me. But it wouldn’t work. Until I could mark Colt I wouldn’t be able to link any of the pack and marking Colt couldn’t happen. Not since my canines had been ripped out. I wasn’t one of them. I was a wolf.

“I have to do this.” I tell Linc and he shakes his head at me. His hand grasps at his throat as he tries to speak.

“Go back.” He chokes out the words.

“You go back.” I mutter, casting my eyes over the other Lycans. Some had already crawled away from the smokey fog. They sit leaning against the trees, sucking in the oxygen, trying to steady their own breathing.

Linc tugs on my hand and shakes his head. “I have to do this, Linc. Colt is your King. I am just a wolf!” Pushing his hand away, I run straight into the smoke.

Snare said they were into women, apparently not because Snare was gay but because he was a man.

    Lilah Snare paces back and forth, muttering to himself. I had no idea what he was saying. The sounds just merged together, like a baby trying to figure out how to talk. He hasn’t answered my question and I don’t push him on it either. Anything could tip him over the edge. “You think you have it all worked out, don’t you, my little Lilah!” “I am not your Lilah. I am no ones Lilah.” “Ah, finally coming to your senses are you? Finally understanding that you don’t belong to him?” “I have never belonged to anybody.” “You see,” He comes to a stop and rounds on me, “That thing, that mark on your neck would suggest otherwise.” My hand covers the red crescent as he glares at me. “It’s not like I can cut it off, is it?” “We can always try.” He takes a step towards me, backing me into a tree. I had nowhere to go. Nowhere to run without him getting his hands on me. “Where is he?” I ask again. “Somewhere safe.” He beams at me as if he had answered my question. “But let’s not talk about hi

    Lilah“What are you saying?” Kaitlin screeches as she plants herself firmly in front of me.I didn’t have time for this. I needed to know what Linc was suggesting. I couldn’t be dealing with her, not now, not ever.“She has told you. That man right there is the one who fathered your kids.” Callie laughs, “If you weren’t such a bimbo, you would be trying to figure out how!” Callie slips her arm through mine and moves us around a gobsmacked Kaitlin.“What are you saying? You are not making any sense!”Callie rolls her eyes at me and drops my arm. “That man that is being chucked into the dungeons. That’s Snare, a shifter.”“But Snare’s a woman!”“She had us all fooled. She fooled you too when she shifted into the King and knocked you up.” Callie snaps back at her“I would know. I know everything about Colt!”“Shut up! Just shut the fuck up!” I was beyond wanting to listen to any of this crap. This time it’s Linc that catches a hold of me. He seemed to know me better than I knew myself, o

    Alpha ColtA mixture of sweat and blood poured down over my skin as my body tried to burn off the wolfsbane. Everytime it was close to being over, a new bucket was thrown over me, burning my skin all over again.It was dark and the wolfsbane was affecting my sight. I could just about see Grant in the darkness of the cave. His hands locked above his body with silver chains. They pulled it tight so that his body was dangling from the ceiling. His feet unable to touch the ground. The smell of burning flesh filled the cave as the silver rubbed his wrists raw.Every hour that passed had me desperate to be back with Lilah. I could only hope that she had heard me and that she was on her way. That somehow she had convinced the others she knew where I was too.Every now and then, sunlight would flitter in, only to be blocked out again. Whoever these aresholes were, they were really enjoying this. I had tried to order them, tried to make them obey, but somehow they were immune to it. My guess i

    LilahI knew he was awake. As I pulled open the refrigerator door, I sensed him. Immediately he started calling to me. Growing more and more frustrated as I ignored him. He would turn his anger to Linc next, but Linc had told me that he was prepared. That they had been waiting for this day for six weeks.I had checked in every few days, letting Linc know that I was good. That I had found somewhere to live and most importantly that I was safe. And safe is how I had felt for the past six weeks, but that feeling was slowly fading now that I knew Colt was awake.I was happy that he had recovered, but at the same time, I knew my time here would be coming to an end. Colt would force me back to that pack.“You look like you have seen a ghost.” Daphne mutters as she reaches up to the shelves.“It’s fine.”“You sure? You don’t look so great.”I had met Daphne a few weeks ago. She had been curled up in the corner of the bus shelter. Her clothes soaked from the pouring rain. Her chocolate hair s

    Alpha Colt“I don’t care what you are saying. She is drunk, Linc. You know how I feel about her drinking! Look what happened the last time!”“Is she in danger?” He pulls his phone from his pocket and shakes his head. “No message. She is fine.”“Linc, you need to remember your position. I am not asking. I am telling you. Take me to her!” I growl as he pockets the phone. Since when had he used a mobile? How much had I missed in the last six weeks?“You never make it easy, do you?”“What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”“I have already explained that she will come back when she is ready. Dragging her back isn’t going to help. Maybe you should give her a chance. She has lasted this long.”I glare at him and he shuts his mouth, shaking his head..“She has been gone for six weeks.”“And in those six weeks, nothing has happened. Besides, you have been unconscious. I did the right thing, I have been keeping an eye on her.” He mutters as he stands between me and the door.“Linc, this is you

    Alpha ColtI reach forward. Wrapping my fingers around the handle of the wooden spoon. It snaps in my hand and she just stares at me. “You bastard. That was my good cooking spoon!”“Daphne, will you stop and just shut up for a second!” Linc had shifted back and was pulling his clothes back on.“You have a lot to teach the human.” I mutter at him“Will you please stop referring to her as ‘the human’. It’s bad enough that her scent is a constant reminder that she is not one of us."“Hey, I don’t stink. Even when I was homeless, I never smelt bad!”Why did Lilah like this human? She doesn’t even remotely understand what Linc is talking about.“Shut up!” A groggy Lilah shouts from her bedroom.“Right, you two, figure this out.” I make my way back to Lilah’s bedroom. Her top half of her body was hanging over the edge of the bed like she had attempted to climb out. Her eyes are still closed. I could hear her stomach gurgling and I knew what was coming. She was moments away from spewing her

    LilahHis scent somehow seemed stronger. Maybe it was because we had been a part for so long or maybe my brain had just forgotten how good he smelt.“I…”“Please. You can’t stay here. Look what almost happened to you last night.”“Colt…”“Lilah, this is not the place for you. What if the other humans find out what you are? You were lucky with Daphne. Other humans won’t be so kind.”“Will you just let me answer your question!” I spin so that I could see his face. “What if you don’t go back?”It was a risk, asking such a thing. But I knew he hadn’t lived in a pack either. Not properly. He had moved from pack to pack, looking for me. He didn’t have a true home either.He frowns and looks around the bedroom. “You want me to live here?”“It doesn’t have to be here. Just not in a pack.”“Lilah, you are their future Queen, you can’t hide from them.”“QUEEN!” I turn to see Daphne and Linc had finally stopped trying to eat each others faces. Daphne had her hands on her hips and was staring at

    Alpha ColtLilah tenses up as my hand rests on her thigh.“You okay?”“Hmmm!” I could feel her skin heating up under her clothes. Her neck starts to flush and gradually the redness moves up to her face. I could smell the change in her scent too. It was early, but she was coming back into heat.“You don’t look so good.” Daphne mutters as she peers over the menu, looking at Lilah.“Thanks!” Lilah snaps back through gritted teeth. She glares at me like it was my fault that she was in heat again. I guess it’s technically true seeing as I am her mate.Linc tosses the car keys across the table at me. He knew what was happening.“How are you going to get back? She can’t shift!”“I will figure it out.”“Is someone going to tell me what is going on? Are we leaving? I haven’t even ordered yet.”“No. The King and Lilah are leaving.” Linc winks at me“Why?”“He needs to take care of something.”“Then we should all go.” Daphne mutters, deflated.Linc shakes his head at his new mate as I hold a ha

    Lilah The next morning, I find Colt packing up the office. “Going somewhere?” I look around at all the half packed boxes in amusement. “We are.” “We are? Did you try talking to me when I was asleep?" He laughs at me, “No, you said you wanted to live in the apartment.” “You’re joking right? None of this shit is going to fit in there.” He had more than enough boxes to fill the bedrooms. Plus it would have remnants of her and I couldn't be somewhere like that. “I thought that’s what you wanted?!” He stops packing and places his hands on my small bump “Once, but there was barely enough room for me and ….” I hadn’t mentioned her name since I had set her on fire. Any time there was a fleeting thought, I would push it away and focus on something else. “You can say her name. She can’t hurt you anymore.” “No. Even thinking of her is giving her time. Anyway, what about when this one comes along? A town centre is hardly a place for a newborn wolf or Lycan.” He presses his lips to my ch

    LilahPulling the blade from my chest. My lungs quickly expand, desperate to suck in some oxygen after what had just happened.The wound above my heart, knits itself together, removing almost all trace of nearly being stabbed to death. All that was left was my blood soaked top. For just a single moment, I was afraid to move. Afraid to look at the damage she had done.Linc appears in front of me. His dark eyes searching mine, her blood coated the skin around his mouth and his chin. He stretches a hand out towards me and pulls me to my feet. “You survived.” He mutters, running his eyes over me, “Not very many of the others did.”As I look around, I see that Callie had stopped jerking about, but her eyes were closed and her body was now motionless. Aiden was hunched over, weeping over Ivy’s body, surrounded by dead Lycans. “COLT!”“Here,” His voice is faint in my head. He was still flat on his back, from where Daphne had knocked him down. “You have to burn her.”My eyes flicker across

    Lilah“Snare?” My voice breaks when I say his name. I thought he was long behind us. “What does he have to do with this?” “You should have listened to him. He was watching you. Just as grandmother requested.”“Your grandmother?” Everything was quickly unravelling. Everything that Daphne had ever done or said was all lies. Out of everyone, she had played me the most, lied to me the most. She had used my emotions to get what she wanted and I had fallen for it, again and again and again.“It really was you. You are the one that made the hospital cave in on us. You almost killed yourself!”She chuckles. “I knew I wouldn’t die well not completely. But the pissy Hybrid had to get involved, didn’t she. Sharing things that shouldn’t be shared. You and I, we could have been great together. A descendant of The Greats and me, a strong and powerful witch. But you ruined that. No matter what I did, you and your special Colt could not be torn apart.”“What about the photo?” Colt croaks from the gr

    Alpha ColtHer breath quickened as she kept her hand steady on my chest. Annoyance maybe, or maybe she finally accepted that someone was lying to her. And that someone was Daphne.She shakes her head at me and moves away. “You’re wrong, Colt.” “Why are you refusing to see what is right in front of you? Even after all the shit you have been through, you still want to believe her.”“She won’t lie to me.”“How many times have you heard that? How many times are you going to keep forgiving her?”“She doesn’t need forgiveness this time because it isn’t her!”“Then who? Who do you think it is? And don’t you dare say me, again!”“That Ivy girl.”I wasn’t about to tell her that Aiden isn’t certain about her, because that would just give Lilah more reason to blame her instead of the real culprit. “Ivy was with you.”“Maybe she planned something, maybe she set something up.”“You don’t believe that. You are just trying to convince yourself.”“Fuck off, Colt.” She sits down on the chair, crossin

    Lilah Making my way down the steps, I’m hit with a cold breeze that almost takes my breath away. Looking back, I see Colt and Linc deep in discussion, but at the same time, I could hear Daphne down below, her quiet sobs filling the silence. “Daphne?” She stops crying and her hands appear through the bars of her cell, “Lilah? Is that really you?” Stepping in front of her cell, she pulls me in for an awkward hug, holding on tightly. “Lilah, you have to make them understand.” “I’m trying.” I mutter. “But Colt still thinks you still want revenge, that’s why he is blaming you. He is refusing to listen to me.” “You’re not wrong. I did want revenge, but only because I was angry. When I saw Linc's dead body, anger was all I felt but then… I saw him, standing in front of me, like he had never died, only his eyes were black and all the anger, it disappeared.” “Do you know what happened with the hospital?” I ask quietly She shakes her head. “Linc told me, but it doesn’t make any sense.

    Aiden“You want me to find out if she had something to do with the explosion? Dad, she was with me and mum when it happened.”“Well someone is hiding something.” he snaps.“I agree,” Linc nods his head at me“It’s not me, at least, I don’t think it is.” Daphne mutters from her corner. “It just doesn’t make sense.”I tell her what Ivy told me, and what she had said to my mother. Daphne violently shakes her head. “I have already said, it wouldn’t work that way.” She glances up to my father, “I don’t know what you saw, Colt, And I don’t know what you mean by the light being under my skin. But I am not responsible for everything. You have to stop blaming me.” She leans her head back against the stone wall. I could see the light flickering along her neck.“You’re doing it now.” I stare at her“What?”“The light that dad spoke of.”She looks down at her hands and rolls the sleeves up. Her mouth falls open as she stares at them. “What’s happening to me?”“You’ve not seen this before? What

    Alpha Colt.“Clear the room.”Callie, Aiden and Ivy all make their way out carefully stepping over the shards of china, when Lilah starts to follow, I grab her arm. “Not you. We need to talk.”She scowls at me and tugs her arm away, letting out a groan. I wait for the door to be closed and to listen to their footsteps as they walk away.“Don’t bother, Colt.” Lilah growls at me.“With what?”“You are going to try talking me around. Convince me that Daphne is the bad person. But it’s not her Colt, it’s you.”“What are you talking about?”“This is what it’s all been about, isn’t it?”“Lilah, you are not making any sense.” I literally had no idea what she was going on about.“You never wanted me to have a sister. You wanted me for yourself, with no one around to get involved. But one by one, everyone that has been a part of my life has died. Dad, my mother. Halle, Drake, Grant, my children. The list goes on and on Colt. Who is next?”“It doesn’t mean it’s all my fault.” I snap in frustrat

    Alpha Colt“No,no,no,no,no.” Linc mutters from next to me as his hand starts disappearing. His dark eyes flick up to where my mate is and back to his hand.“She’s dead!” It was the only thing that made sense. It was why Aiden was hugging his mother, it was why I could hear my mate crying. And it was why Linc was losing his hand all over again.Ivy says nothing. She watches my son and Lilah with wide blue eyes. A slight frown forming, but the frown quickly disappears when she sees me looking at her.“I will go and help.” She declares and starts climbing over the rubble towards my mate and son.“Well, I guess we didn’t need to kill her after all.” I mutter to Linc“If she’s dead, so is her magic.” He shows me that he can move around freely. “It's gone.” He beams at me but those dark eyes show an emptiness that seemed to go on forever. I could deal with Linc later, right now my mate needed me more.Aiden carries Daphne's body over the rubble back towards me. While Ivy helps to keep Lila

    Lilah.“Mum, just calm down.” Aiden is growing frustrated with my pacing. “Please, just sit down.”“You are my son, why are you keeping me locked up?”“I’m just following Dad’s orders. What the hell happened in there?”“I don’t know.”“How can you not know? You were in there when the first explosion went off.”“Daphne was still unconscious. I was holding her hand when the roof started caving in. Colt, he pulled me away. He blocked me from the falling ceiling. He….” I knew he was blaming Daphne, but there had to be more to it. There just had to be.“Aiden, you need to let me go out there!”“No mum. Dad made it clear, you are to stay here with me and Ivy.”“Daphne is my sister!”“And she is the one who did this!” He glares at me with his grey eyes“I’m not so sure.” Ivy mutters from the window.“What?” Both Aiden and I speak in unison.Ivy hadn’t spoken a word since we had been in the house, well not to me anyway.
