The hospital was waiting for us when we finally arrived there. I was surprised but thrilled when he finally allowed me to pull Max and Cora from the wreckage. It was a shock that it had not blown up yet. The smell of petrol was so overwhelmingly powerful that I thought I might pass out on the floor, but my wolf had pushed me to keep on going. I thanked my lucky stars for all the training and strength I gained at Eclipse. I wanted nothing more than to get away from this disgusting waste of wolf oxygen, but he was the only way I could get these two to safety quickly. “If anyone asks, I was passing and helped at the right time.” He made sure to keep reminding me of his little story. I didn’t care about what he was saying. I was just more worried about my mate and sister being ok. If anything happened to either of them, I would kill him myself. “She’s going to make a full recovery.” The nurse said, and I breathed a huge sigh of relief. My eyes darted acros
Miller’s POV I watched Isla leave the room and wished so badly that she was mine. I could not get her out of my head and wished that things were different, but they were not different at all, and I knew I had to live with it now. She belonged to Max now, and I needed them both on board if I wanted my pack to be saved. I wasn't the best alpha, but that was going to change. Mora had broken me by taking away my firstborn and running off with that so-called mate of hers. Cora held my hand and squeezed it firmly as if reading my mind and reassuring me. My beta returned to the room and looked slightly relieved to see me with Cora. She smiled at me as I stood up to talk to my beta. “He's still out for the count,” he said with a nod, and I noticed the smile wipe off Cora’s face. It was clear to me that it pained her to know that the arse of an animal was her flesh and blood. He was a monster. “He cannot know about my mother,” she said wit
Isla’s POV I walked Into the room to see Max sitting up in the bed, not a mark on him. He had healed so quickly, and I was so happy about that. “Hello, my beautiful girl.” he beamed as I threw my arms around him and squealed with happiness. He picked me up and spun me around. He was so handsome and strong, and I was so lucky to have him as mine. “Cora and Miller are here. That so-called father of mine is out there as well.” I scrunched my face and wished he would have left us all alone. Max laughed and ruffled my hair. “I already know about that. I also hear that Miller wants our help. How do you feel about that?” he raised an eyebrow and cocked his head to the side, waiting for my answer. I shrugged, not sure how I felt. He was my ex-mate, and I hated him for how he had treated me in the past, but was it time to put that aside and move on with life? “Go on, it's fine. I have to speak to the doctor quickly anyway. I will meet you all outsid
Isla’s POV Shifting my furious glare to Miller accusingly, I wanted to rip his head off his arrogant shoulders. He must have known that they would be here. “What?” Miller caught me glaring his way and got all defensive. “You that knew they were here, didn't you?” I challenged him to come clean over my suspicions, but he remained adamant that he had known nothing. Max calmly put an arm around me and whispered to me to let it go, and there was no point in starting an argument as it would not change anything. “Wait, what?” I shoved him off me and realised he had known about where Daniel would be. He was the one who had told Miller’s beta were to drive too. How come he was so relaxed and chilled about the whole situation? “Daniel knows your father better than anyone else. This is where we leave him. He won't find his way back. We are miles out of our kind.” It took me a while to understand what he was saying. So basically
Miller’s POV I was free of her shit. She was welcome to Daniel, and he was more than welcome to her. “I never meant a damn thing to you, did I?” Mora was standing in front of me, eyes blazing and hands on her hips. I allowed myself to look straight back at her. Nothing. I felt nothing for her. Not anymore. “Daniel, you are free to be with your mate, and I truly do wish you all the very best. You will need a lot of goods, and I have the luck to put up with her.” I smirked at Daniel and raised my eyebrows at a very cross-looking Mora. She was fuming. Daniel should have rejected her the way that Isla had denied me. Why should she get to be happy? It was pretty clear to me that she blinded him. She certainly had him wrapped tightly around her little finger. I, on the other hand, was free of her at last. I could not help but laugh out loud. Daniel inched towards me, bearing his canines and
Isla’s POV “I need to leave. I cannot stay here another second. All my life, I have had to deal with more and more stress, and this tops it for me.” Mora huffed and started to throw things into her suitcase. My blood was boiling upon hearing such rubbish from her poisonous mouth. How dare she! I growled, and Cora immediately tried to trap me against her and the wall. She knew I was about to lose my temper with this sorry excuse of a she-wolf. “Don’t even retaliate to her, and she is not worth it,” Cora said quietly, but Mora shot her a filthy look, which only caused me to growl even louder. I didn’t even stop when I felt Max beside me. “Come on, Isla.” He tried to distract me and lead me away, but I wrenched my hand from him. he looked astonished but said nothing. I did not allow them to react quickly enough before I was in front of Mora and pinning her against the wall. She looked so pathetic with her fake tears and look of fright on her f
Miller’s POV “You’re not the father. None of you two are.” Mora said shamefully. Those words rang on my head continuously. That meant that she had been with someone else. Cora was furious for her brother’s devastation, but I noticed from the corner of my eye how she struggled to maintain her emotions. “She’s lying.” Isla shouted with a scoff of disgust and crossed her arms over her chest. “Mora, what are you doing?” I heard my beta pipe up but thought nothing of it since he was my best friend and would have always had my back no matter what. My eyes turned back to my now ex mate. She was nothing more than a Hoare. “Mora, what are you talking about? That is our baby. You are mine. My mate.” Daniel stepped to her and held her to his chest, he started to caress her cheek. She looked up at him and a tear fell from her eyes. “I am so sorry, Daniel. Please forgive me. It was just the one time, and I never meant it to happen.” She sobbed into him, and he he
Isla’s POV I just watched as Miller ran off into the distance, everything had happened to quickly that there was barely any time to process it. Max was trying to pull me away from the sight of the dead body that lay mauled just feet away from us. I turned my attention to Mora and felt my anger sizzle up because this girl had caused so much unnecessary drama in my life, and this was behind a joke now. “I can’t believe your stupid mate killed him.” She turned around and glared at me, pointing a finger. How dare she accuse me of being the one in the wrong. Also, was she stupid? Miller was not my mate. Not anymore. I felt my body start to shift as my wolf pushed forward and forced me to the back. Not even Max could prevent me from shifting. Mora’s eyes widened in fear, and she turned to run away from me, but my wolf was far too quick. Grabbing her with one swipe, she tumbled backwards banging her head on the ground and becoming as still as a statue. “
