JACKSON’S POV After seeing their friends off Jackson went back to Sasha, pacing up and down in their bedroom before finally sitting at the window overlooking the entire and a few yards into the woods. Their room was strategically placed this high in this exact position so that the Alpha could always ensure his pack’s safety and know when an unexpected attack was on its way. Jax still couldn’t believe how the Alpha of the Bloodmoon pack, the murderer of his parents was his mate’s father. He loved Sasha with every fiber of his being, he couldn’t imagine his feelings toward her changing simply because of her DNA, but could she forgive him if his animalistic instincts kicked in upon seeing her father and just ripping his throat out? He saw how much pain she was in when she found out her father was a wolf, It’s not likely that a wolf would abandon their pups not even rogues are that cruel. But the utter shock at finding out that he was an Alpha intensified her pain, she was his firstbo

The next day everybody was once again in Scarlett’s apartment “Hey Mikael, when do we get to have a meeting at your place?” She asked him annoyed that once again everyone was standing in the small flat. “Whenever you wish Majesty.” He said with a hint of amusement in his voice. “Can we go now?” She asked him itching to get out of her flat. “Yeah, I have never seen your place either,” Jackson said with curiosity on his face. I don’t think anyone but Gabriel has seen his place Lydia said with a frown on her face too.” This causes the vampires to laugh. “Prepare to be amazed,” Gabriel said as they all filed out and into their own personal vehicles following behind Mikael who had Lydia as his passenger. At this point, everyone was confused as Mikael had driven past the bayou where Jackson’s pack was and Past the area where Lydia’s cottage was. They turned off onto a dirt road and drove so far into the woods that they ended up at the foot of a mountain when Mikael finally stopped his

“Enough about me! We have ingredients to cook since none of us had the mind to get takeaways and this place is too far out for delivery.” Mikael said this caused Gabriel to rub his hands together ready to get his chef on. “Pizza or pasta?” He asked them then rolled his eyes as he could practically see Scarlett and Jackson salivating at the thought of both meals. “Can we have chocolate croissants for dessert?” Sasha asked. Gabriel just nodded and got busy. “Have you decided what you will do with the information I gave you yesterday?” Lydia asked getting right into it. Scarlett blinked multiple times not knowing what to say or do about their friend's bluntness while Mikael walked off to get whatever tech they might need for research. “I suppose I would have to confront the bastard won't I?” Sasha said.”Damn straight!” Lydia encouraged in the most peculiar way. “Jackson and I did, however, come to the conclusion that it wasn’t because he didn’t love her that he killed her. “ Eve

Scarlett’s eyes widened as she recalled their encounter with the council of species. She recalled how each and every one of them was scrutinized by the members of that council. Most of all she remembered how hard Lydia’s family member swallowed when she saw Sasha. “Lydia’s sister, or was it your aunt? The lady from the species council?!” Scarlett said as the words came tumbling out of her mouth not making sense to her own ears. “Yes, she is old and strong enough to pull something like that off,” Lydia said with disdain. “I too remember how pale she went for a second, I thought it was because she saw me,” Lydia said. “But Sasha was standing right behind you,” Jackson said. “Fucking bitch!” Lydia exclaimed as she slammed her closed fists on the countertop. “That settles it. I am going to kill the whore.” Lydia said furiously that a member of her family could interfere with another person’s life in such a colossal way. Sasha shot up from her seat hugging her friend with all her mi

“Right, you and Gabriel have been together for so long it didn’t even occur to me you may have known me since the day I was born,” Lydia said to Mikael threw narrowed eyes. He knew in that very moment he would be interrogated when it was just the two of them. Gabriel and Scarlett observed the two very closely, there was a different conversation going to be held in her bed tonight she thought with a knowing smile on her face as Gabriel looked like a father who just found out his two children were engaging in some insistent behavior. She just shook her head at his unwarranted thought pattern as Lydia and Mikael weren’t really related and Gabriel didn’t seem to have a problem when he thought they were just dating. Sasha was standing at the floor-to-ceiling window in the kitchen with her back turned to everyone deep in thought about how she would approach her biological father about everything starting with her mother and ending with her having siblings, she needed to hear from his own

“It seems very fishy that the Luna of the Bloodmoon pack is never talked about,” Scarlett said red in the face at her friend's compliments of Gabriel’s cooking skills. Ofcause she knew how blessed she was to have a mate who, if he were human, would have received a Michelin award for best chef of the century. “I agree, the bitch has my mother killed off to position herself as Luna then just goes missing?” Sasha joined in the conversation, she could feel her wolf itching for revenge. For all the wrong that was done to them, for growing up without a mother, for being kept away from their father, their pack, and most of all their mate! Lydia was typing away at her laptop very focused on finding answers to the mountain of questions that was building, She was mid-typing when Mikael grabbed the laptop by the screen and replaced it with a plate of Pizza “Eat please.” He said to her, he knew she wouldn’t make a scene in front of their friend, “Yeah honey, the information won’t disappear off

“Any new dreams Scar?” Lydia asked genuinely interested in her answer seeing as it was Scarlett’s dreams that led them all where they are today. “I have been having odd dreams lately about the other Universe, things seem different. It’s as if the Scarlett I met a few days ago is different from the one I have been dreaming about these last couple of days.” She said deep in thought like she was still trying to figure out what was what. “That is definitely strange,” Jackson commented enjoying every bite of the pasta Gabriel had made. “Alright, let’s not take Sasha’s spotlight people, one problem at a time,” Gabriel said, his tone of voice was humorous but they all knew he was serious by his body language. “I am happy for the distraction,” Sasha said with a small smile on her face, she meant what she said, she didn’t enjoy the fact that their new mission was now about her, it made her uncomfortable and she wondered several times in the past twenty-four hours how Scarlett handled such

After 8 hours of sleep, Scarlett woke up feeling disorientated as she did not recognize her surroundings, her dreams lately had been very scary and she did not know what to make of it, when she looked to her side she saw Gabriel lying next to her staring at the ceiling and it all came back to her, right she was at Mikael’s castle! “This house really feels more like a Castle than a mansion.” She said to Gabriel as she leaned over to kiss him good morning, he leaned back over to kiss her square on the lips as he pulled her closer by putting his hand behind her head. “It’s a pity we are not in our own home.” Scarlett said suggestively to Gabriel. “That is not something we would want to listen to.” Jackson hollered from the wall way clearly passing their bedroom for the night. “It’s rude to eavesdrop on Jax,” Scarlett shouted back as she was now blushing brightly at the thought of everyone being able to hear them mating. Everybody was already downstairs by the time Lydia and Mikael
