Looks like we are heading back to the USA. Poor Jared, I think we may be about to go to war ;) MMxx
LyraThe only way to protect the people I love is to hand myself over. I keep this part of my plan to myself, Maddox wouldn’t allow me to do this but I'll do what needs to be done then return. Personally asking forgiveness is better than asking permission, that's just not in me, not even for Maddox.I can't believe they burnt down Jareds bar, everytime i think about poor Jared I feel so guilty. He was the first person who made me feel welcome in that country, I always looked forward to seeing him. I sigh and snuggle down into Maddox, curled up in a ball on his lap as he draws small circles on my hip with his large hands. I can feel he is trying to keep his frustration under control, and I appreciate it more than he will ever know. I just need time to think before we land, having contact with my tie always helps me to relax. I know i am being selfish but i can't have anyone harmed due to me being stubborn.As I think that I catch Kalsea’s eye she is snuggled up to Atlas, she looks so s
Lyra We arrived in the states late yesterday, Maddox and his men left to deal with some stuff to do with their pack. I am now waiting for his return so we can go visit Jared in the hospital. Kalsea has asked if she can accompany us to see if she can help.Atlas wasn't happy at first. He is even more protective than my Alpha, but I guess they know I can take care of myself. I heard Kalsea and Atlas having a small argument last night, from what I could understand she wants to take it to the next level with her Tie, and Atlas is terrified of hurting her.I had told Maddox, he is going to speak to him in private. Demitri is like a cat that has gotten the cream. The passion and love you see when he looks at Dollar makes me smile. My best friend has been a man whore for about ninety years. Dollar is perfect for him and I am glad they have each other. Carlos has been watching me closely, I know he knows something is up, he has been by my side for a long time. As I prepare my mind for what I
LyraI can't take my eyes off the man lying in the bed, he seems smaller, more fragile than I remember. I reach out and take his hand, the warmth makes me smile. I want to tell him I'm sorry, that this is all my fault. I already had Luca transfer the money into Jareds bank, I know it won't change anything.I can hear them talking, Kalsea and the other doctor but I can't drag my eyes away from the man in the bed. Most of his left side is bandaged up, his chest rises and falls, the tube down his throat keeping him alive. Guilt, it's another emotion that feels alien to me, I wish I could shut all these feelings off.Maddox, that’s who started this shit, slowly cracking the walls I have kept in place for almost one hundred years. Now with all these strange emotions swirling around inside me, my want to protect the people close to me and now all these wolves I haven even met, his pack. I am drowning in all these thoughts.“Boss, are you ok?” Carlos asks as he steps up beside me, keeping hi
Maddox‘Maddox, the doctor is being controlled. Look at his wrist.’ Lyra mind-links me, looking at his wrist I noticed what looks like a black festering wound. Fuck! What the fuck is this now?“Drop him Atlas, he is not of his own mind” My Beta frowns at me, but drops the now coughing and spluttering doctor to the ground. Kneeling down beside him Lyra lifts the sleeve of his white doctor's jacket. She hisses in anger as she stands back up.“It’s Vlad’s, I can smell his scent on it. But if has gotten to the doctor god knows who else he has got to” Lyra says looking like she's ready to explode. “What is a master's mark?” I ask her as she stands back to my side. I turn to talk to Atlas, he and Kalsea are already by Jared’s bed. Kalsea is removing all drips and bandages. “I need someone who you trust to help me” She says to no one in particular. “I can help you” A shy looking Brandy steps forward. I am sure there is more to their relationship, I see how she looks at him.I can feel somet
LyraSometimes I could kick myself, why would I offer to host the meal? Oh yeah, keep them on our turf. Maddox is pacing like a caged animal he is so nervous, its driving me fucking nuts. You would think he was meeting my parents, not his own.Atlas and Kalsea have been back from the hospital about an hour, they will be attending the dinner as will Dollar and Demitri. The rest of the men will be working, Carlos has volunteered with two of Maddox men to guard Jared and Brandy who has refused to leave his side. Last night Maddox had them put into the private wing of the hospital for protection. Luca has set up CCTV and reprogrammed the hand scanner to the private wing so we know anyone coming or going. I had them put a cot in for Brandy so she can hopefully get some rest.I looked over the table the maid had set. It was simple but elegant, not too fancy. The Omega that Maddox has working tonight is a friendly little thing who is very curious about us being vampires and keeps following M
LyraLilly had put an extra place setting at the table by the time we all entered. Willow, Atlas’s mother had not let my hand go all the way to the dining room, she gave my hand a gentle squeeze and I don't know why but that small act of kindness gave me strength i needed.Maddox’s hand never leaves the small of my back, I can feel him pouring love down through our bond. Dollar gives both sets of parents a hug and introduces them to his mate. Atlas’s parents are just as loving and warm towards Demitri, this I am glad of. Dollar goes to sit at the other side of Maddox as he was meant to, but the female beats him to it. He goes to protest but I catch his eye and shake my head just a little telling him it was fine. What the silly girl didn't realise was that she just sat beside my best friend, and Demitri didn't play when it came to me.This bitch is really trying my patience, and she has no idea what she is getting herself into when it comes to me. Kalsea sits to my left, giving me comf
Lyra There are no words to describe how I feel right now. I wish I could but I can't drag my eyes away from the sight in front of me. On the cold metal table of the coroner lies the beaten, abused and drained body of the little omega who has been working in the penthouse.Four days ago Lilly was reported missing by her mother and older sister. She didn't even have her wolf yet so no mind-link. I have killed many, and felt nothing but right now looking at her all I can feel is guilt. If one more person tells me it's not my fault they will be joining Lilly in the afterlife.The border patrol found her at one of the pack gates, she was dumped like trash. It’s the look in her eyes that is haunting me, she suffered more than anyone should. Lilly was innocent, she never hurt anyone. She had been following Masimo around like a love sick puppy. If Carlos had allowed me to leave a week ago this would never have happened. This is not his fault, no this is all on me. She was a curious little th
VladimirI can't get used to this country, the people are fucking crazy. Ahmet is completely unhinged to the point I have started to question myself and my choice to get him involved. His obsession with Lyra goes beyond anything I ever thought. I watched as he tortured the little wolf girl, her screams still very much in my mind. I spoke to my father, tried to explain how I had a very bad feeling about this, as usual he told me to grow a set of balls. He said Lyra would eat me alive if I didn't get my shit together. It disgusted me the things Ahmet did to the female. I have killed more than my fair share, but I draw the line at children. She was little more than a child, she was pure and he violated her. Maybe my father was right.I push my latest doner off me as I slowly get out of bed, by the look of her I may have drunk more than I should have. Tessa won't be happy, Ahmet has already killed two by accidently draining them. He just laughed at her when she told him it was inexcusabl
