We had no idea where the hell we were going. We just needed to get the hell out of the city. We didn’t know how many allies my father had so Noah was behind the wheel of the car and he took all the side streets until we finally hit the highway and we kept on going. I was sitting in the front with Noah while the other two were chatting in the backseat. “So, if Elias is your father then does that mean you are next in line to his pack?” I asked. “Not anymore. He disowned me when I said that I wasn’t going to go ahead with his plan to kidnap you.” Noah said. “But you didn’t know that I was your mate back then. Why would you not want to do it?” I asked. “Because I saw what he did to your mother. I wasn’t going to let him do it to another girl.” He said. “So, the sadistic Alpha raised a son with morals. That’s unusual.” I said. “Yeah. We need to find somewhere to hold up where they won’t think to look.” Noah said. “I don’t know my dad that well. So, I don’t know where he will think
Knowing the lengths that my father was going to in order to get me back, made me realize that he was more desperate to get me back than I thought. And Noah was determined that it was because he had an agreement with Elias, or he was in Elias’ debt or something like that. Either way, he only wanted me so he could trade me to an Alpha that was going to use me for whatever the hell he wanted. And Noah was damn sure he wasn’t going to let that happen. I was just upset that we had dragged Jax and Mason into this, but they said that they wouldn’t have it any other way. They were going to be beside Noah’s side, no matter what. Even if they were now labelled as kidnappers. That still didn’t make me feel any better. But I had to try and get my head straight. I had to find out what Wesley and his family wanted with me and I needed to find out who my real mother was. It seemed like Isabella Matthews never even existed. Everything about her was just erased to make it look like she was never th
I got up out of bed and I looked out the window at the moon that was shining brightly right into my bedroom and I was more confused than ever. If my mother wasn't actually my mother, then what happened to her. Noah mentioned knowing my mother at one point. Now I need to know exactly everything that he knew about her. I got changed into a grey sweater, tights, socks and sand shoes. I left the house and I started jogging around the lake, trying to clear my head. I was running through the woods, dodging the branches, jumping over the ones that were on the ground, it was almost like an obsticle course. Usually something like this was really enjoyable to me, but today it wasn't. I don't know why. There was something going on with me that I couldn't explain. Something that felt strange and foreign. I hated this feeling and I just kept running until I didn't feel like this anymore. But the problem was, the feeling was going away. And by the time I was passing the house for the fourth ti
As I was sitting on the ground staring at the ring, I was pulled out of it when Mason yelled at me and attacked the warriors that were approaching me. I tried to get to my feet, but I knew that I was really badly hurt right now. At least a few several broken ribs and a broken ankle. I saw Noah slowly getting to his feet and he had blood all over his face. He wasn't looking too good himself, but that didn't stop him from attacking the warriors that were coming near me. He was going to protect me with everything that he had. As the last warriors realized that he was the only one left standing. The only one left alive, he took one last effort to lunge at me but was grabbed my Noah who had extended his claws and ripped the warriors throat out. Dropping his dead body on the ground. Noah ran over to me and kneeled down in front of me. "Ava." He said, looking me over. Seeing that I was badly hurt. But I was staring at him like he wasn't even there. I looked back down at my hand a
Once we got Noah back to the cabin we had to pack up all of our things as fast as we could. If there were stealth warriors hanging around then there was a good chance that they had already made the call to tell their boss where we were. I'd never seen those men before, so I didn't know if they worked for dad or not. But we just knew that we needed to get out of there. We packed up the car in record time and got out of there as fast as possible. Noah and I were in the backseat while the other two were in the front seat. Noah had picked up the pieces of the necklace and he was examining it in the car. Trying to figure out what it was made of. It had to be something made of dark magic to take my memories the way that it did. "Any ideas?" I asked. "None. I don't have a clue about what this material is." He said. "Alright. Well, keep the pieces. Just in case." I said, holding out a ziplock bag for him to put them in. "Just in case what?" He asked. "Just in case I need to ha
I got out of that car, taking the phone with me, and I got back in the car with Noah and Mason sped off down the highway again. "Are you fucking crazy? You scared the hell out of me." Noah yelled. "Well, I'm glad that I did it." I said, showing him the phone. "What about it?" "Leo just called to ask if I was dead. He set these bastards after me." I said. "Did you say anything?" Noah asked. "Only that I was going to fuck him up. I think he took me seriously." I said. "Probably. Since you just killed two men that were meant to kill you." Noah said. "Exactly." I smirked. "Don't fucking do that to me again." Noah said, pulling me closer to him. I knew that he needed me to be sitting near him just so he could calm down. It was the calming effect of the mate bond that he needed right now. I guess I must have really scared him. "I know that you are used to only thinking about yourself. But you can't do that anymore." Noah whispered as he inhaled my scent, right next to
Standing outside of the massive high school in the middle of a city was not something I ever expected I would be doing in my life. I had been living in the woods, in a small log cabin with my mother, who homeschooled me, until recently. When my father showed up and declared that I was coming to live with him, I moved to a big city. As I looked around at everyone going in and out of the high school, I looked down at myself and knew that I didn’t belong. All the girls were dressed to the nines, with beautiful clothes, a lot of makeup and high heels. Like they were about to attend a fashion show or something like that. But I looked down at myself wearing sweatpants, sneakers, a baggy shirt and a hoodie over the top of it. I noticed that everyone was staring at me as I was staring at the building and I decided to bite the bullet and go inside. I knew that I couldn’t put it off for much longer and I knew that they were going to be staring at me, whether I was inside or outside. So I
“Big fucking mistake.” I growled, glaring at Skylar and her friends behind her. I reached forward and grabbed Skylar by the hair, pulling her head down as I kneed her in the face and then I elbowed her on her back and she fell to the ground. I spun around and kicked Sarah in the stomach and she flew through the air and straight through the floor to ceiling wall and landed on the pavement outside. I then looked at the third girl that was standing there, eyes really wide with shock and fear and I punched her in the throat and while she was gasping for air I kneed her in the stomach and as she bent over I punched her across the face and she fell to the ground as well. I turned around to look at everyone else that was staring at me in shock around the cafeteria and I stood over Skylar who was still on the ground and I walked towards the door of the cafeteria. I looked over to see that same guy who pushed me into the locker standing at a table with his friends, all of them looking

I snuck back up to my room once I was finished in the office and I made sure that there was no trace of me in the office. And I definitely printed out those correspondences from dad to Elias. I went back up to my room and I paced around for a little while before I sat at my desk and I turned on my own computer. I started researching Elias. But the only thing I could find was all the praise that he was getting in the human world for all the good deeds that he had done for people. All the charities that he was involved with and the schools that he donated money to in poverty stricken neighborhoods. He looked like a real saint on paper, but that was about it. There was nothing in the press to make him look bad. He was never caught up in a scandal. So I typed in my father’s name and he wasn’t in as many articles but they were just as clean as Elias. These men were really careful to keep their true selves hidden. They definitely didn’t want anyone to see what they were really lik
Noah and I sat at the table talking for ages, but I knew the reality of the situation. I knew that I needed to get home. Before my dad realized that I was gone. My phone started ringing and I saw that it was Wesley, but I ignored it. I then sent him a message and told him that dad had me doing some pack work and I couldn’t talk to him now. I didn’t know how I was going to handle the whole Wesley situation, but I knew that I needed to keep it close to the vest. I couldn’t let anyone, except Noah, know what I know. There was too much at stake. Noah drove me home but he stopped down the road so the camera’s and guards didn’t pick up his car or anything like that. “Will you be alright sneaking back in?” He asked. “Yeah. I’ll be fine. I’ve done it heaps of times.” I said. “Alright. Listen, it would be best if Wesley doesn’t suspect anything right now.” He said. “I know. Same with dad and Sandra. I won’t tell them anything.” I said. “Alright. I know that this is hard. And I
As soon as I had heard enough from Wesley and his parents, I left their house and I started walking around the city aimlessly. I didn’t know where I was going or what I was doing. Not until I realized that I was standing outside the hotel that Noah was staying in. I stood there staring at the building. Still not moving. Like I was in shock. “Ava.” Someone said, walking up beside me. I turned my head and Jax was there. “Hello counselor.” I said. “Noah already messaged me and told me that you know the truth. Are you alright?” He asked. “I don’t know.” I said. “Come inside.” He said. But I shook my head. “I’m not leaving you out here alone. Come on.” He said. So he took me inside the hotel and up to their penthouse suite. He opened the door and I saw another man sitting on the couch drinking a beer. But as soon as he saw me walk in, he jumped up really suddenly and started acting really weird. “Ava. This is our weirdo friend Mason. And now you see why I was asked to be yo
