JUSTINFor the second time in my life, I prayed hard. My entire body was focused on just one thing, desperate for her not to get a scratch on her body.Don't take her from me too. This feeling, tightness in my chest, sweat forming, palms sweaty and heart racing was far worse than the time I lost Audrey which meant Astrid had to be in an even bigger danger. Don't make me lose her. I prayed again, repeating it over and over like a chant as I searched for her everywhere. I felt crazed. I was going mad with worry. Where could she be? Was she in danger?Knowing I couldn't find her like this, and by myself wherever she was, I knew I needed help. I reached out to Jonah immediately as I paced around the hospital hallway. “Whatever, you're doing, drop it and watch for Astrid. She's gone.” I was thankful that his mind wasn't blocked when I reached out because he responded with just as much urgency as my tone had.“What do you mean gone?” He asked, confused. This was the first time I showed a

JUSTINI stood by the door, not saying a word. Her words got to me. Two years ago when she had killed them. Two years ago when she had taken them away from me. Two years ago when she became a murderer. For a long time during those two years, I hated my father for giving her such a short sentence. I would have made sure she had rotted in jail for what she had done. She would have died along with them but now she was claiming I hadn't believed her. Without turning to face her, I whispered. “Two years ago, you ruined my life, Astrid.” The words had to be my undoing and I was instantly transported back to that very day. FLASHBACK I stared at her picture one last time, feeling butterflies forming in my stomach and for the nervousness to kick in. It was one year already and I couldn’t be happier. My relationship with Audrey was nowhere near perfect but she was it for me. This was definitely the kind of surprise she would love on our anniversary.I checked my watch, pleased that everyth

ASTRIDSomeday, they would all believe me. When the truth finally came out and they realized I had been telling the truth all along, they would believe me. I would love to see the expressions on their faces as I informed them I would be leaving, never to return.Each and every one of them would know just how much they hurt me and this time, the hate would be reflected in me and not in them. It would finally be their turn to be hated by me. For now, however, I needed to uncover the truth. I sat in my hospital bed with the diary open across my lap. I had tried reading through to see if there are places I had missed that might hold any information that could be useful. The door opened and I raised my head, thinking it had to be the doctor or one of the nurses but Jonah walked in instead. Why is he here? Is he here to hurt me?“Oh, you're awake.” He stated and I nodded twice, sitting up just in case a need for flight arose. He might have saved me but that didn't mean he couldn't hurt m

JUSTINI stumbled into the house, still upset with Astrid. For some reason, my mind kept going back to her and while I was furious, there was a lingering worry in my heart. She had been stupid enough to leave the pack alone to go search for whatever she wanted to and while that was a stupid move on her part and extremely reckless, I couldn't stop worrying about her even when I refused to let myself care for her. “Justin…” I looked up to see my father seated in the living room. This was odd as he was either always in his office or bedroom with my mother. “We need to talk for a moment, son.” He said to me, I watched his expression and saw that he did seem to have a lot on his mind as well. I walked further into the room before noticing there was someone else in the room. Astrid's father. I raised a brow, then frowned but didn't say anything. “I'll give you two some space.” My father-in-law spoke but my father was quick to stop him. “No, you should be here. This involves her too…” Her

ASTRIDI couldn't help but wonder if my mother-in-law actually knew the kind of person Asta was. I was certain she wouldn't be smiling at her if she knew she had walked in with a murderer. Asta, on the other hand, was smiling with a crazed look on her face. I hadn't noticed just how insane she actually looked when she smiled before but now it was clear as day. The evil was there to see if you knew what you were searching for. My heart was in my throat, and I could feel it becoming a bigger knot by the second. What did they want with me now? I wondered. My breath hitched when Justin’s mother walked over to me. As she bent close to my ear, I saw the smile she had come in with slip but she covered it up immediately with a brighter one. “Oh, Astrid, how are you feeling now dear?” She faked a concern that I was sure even Asta could tell was not real. “I hope you’re feeling a lot better…” I was stunned for a second and couldn't process what this was all about. Was she being nice to me be

JUSTINI waited by the door, trying to see if Asta was going to do anything since neither of them had seen me at first but the tears rapidly falling from Astrid's face spurred me and I walked in. “Asta. What are you doing here?”I saw Asta freeze for a moment before saying something to Astrid who looked absolutely terrified. I couldn't hear what was being said but if Astrid really thought Asta was the killer, then this had to be traumatizing for her. It was obvious that she needed help but couldn't say anything, no doubt that that was Asta’s idea if Astrid had been telling the truth. “I just came by for a little chat with Astrid. You know, to remind her of the past.” She threw a glance at Astrid who looked like she was minutes away from crying out in pain. Why does it feel like she’s lying? Something was wrong with Astrid but I couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was. My heart squeezed painfully, mirroring the pain she felt and I wondered what that was about. I walked to the side of

ASTRIDI sat up straight when the doctor came in. He was here to check my vitals like he had promised to. I was relieved to see that most of the injuries had healed up and the rest were on the process as well. “Your vitals are good, Astrid. I think its safe enough for you to be discharged today.” Oh thank Goddess. I was starting to hate the hospital now. “All you have to do is make sure you rest a lot and stay protected since you're almost always in danger.” I nodded at the doctor's instructions but I knew well enough that rest was not a luxury I could afford at the moment, especially with my mother-in-law set to make matters worse for me.“This means I can take her home with me right now, yes?” Justin asked from where he was perched at the edge of the bed. He hadn't left since he told me about the deal and I didn't know how to feel about his continuous presence. It seemed like he would always be with me from now on and the thought of that did not sit well with me.I knew that the mi

JUSTINI dropped to the bed, not uttering a sound. What happened earlier ran through my mind. I didn't want her here for any other reasons other than what would be beneficial for both of us if this plan was going to work. She’s supposed to be here so I would be able to keep an eye on her and also so no one would be able to find out about our plans. How was I supposed to protect her when she didn't want to be here? Also, it would be very suspicious of I met her outside of the house. There were bound to be wrong ideas sprouting, ideas we wouldn't be able to dispute without raising more suspicions. However, I couldn't take not seeing her. Other than the need to protect her, I had this growing sense of need ever since my father asked me to mate with her. It was almost like I wanted her and the thought of that made my wolf excited. Heck, it made me excited too. I just couldn't give in to the need. I mustn't. Not wanting to dwell on these new feelings, I left my room. Maybe if I caught
