Logan’s POV

Her brown eyes fill with tears as she stares at me. It was the truth. I couldn’t get her out of my head.

When her heart stopped, pain ripped through me, worse than I had ever felt before.

I may have jumped at the deal with Abby a little too quickly but I was not ready to lose Lana. Now she was marked by a vampire. A vampire that wanted to recreate a Blood Pack.

Lana sits quietly. Little sighs escaping her. She hadn’t said anything, not since I told her that she was all I thought about.

The clock ticking was driving me nuts. Every second seemed to last forever as I waited for her to say something.

Her lips part, like she was going to say something. But she soon closes them again. Her eyes continue to remain on me, neither of us moving, neither of us speaking.

“Why?” she finally chokes out.

“You are asking me why I care?”

“Uh huh” her head slowly moves up and down, her eyes wide like she is in some sort of trance.

“It would seem like the bond is making my feelings for you gr

    Logan’s POV“What was all the noise about?” Her words are quiet. She blinks a few times and I see how her eyes are shaking. Just a little, but enough for me to notice as she turns her head in my direction.“Lana, are you okay?” It was a stupid question. It was obvious that she wasn’t.“I’m fine….” she wobbles slightly. Her hand reaching out to the door frame to steady herself.“Lana. I know you’re not.”As the blanket falls from her shoulders, she reveals her blood soaked pyjama shirt. There were slits in the material, just over her stomach. Like claws had raked over her.Uncle Liam rises from the chair as I demand to know what happened.“I did it.” She mutters as I run my fingers over the wounds. They were healing, just very slowly.“Why would you do this to yourself?”“I thought… I thought you had gone.”The whites of her eyes were dimming as she struggled to stand upright.“What do you mean? I’m right here.”“It hurts.” She mouths as she stumbles forward, crashing into me. Her eyes

    Lana’s POVFreya was sat on the end of the bed humming. I could tell it was her by her scent but for the life of me, I had no idea what song she was trying to hum, but it was the most annoying thing ever.“Hey, how are you feeling?” She smiles as I rub my eyes.I had woken up yesterday. Mortified to find myself in the pack hospital. It was only made worse when I found out I had been in for an entire week. Freya pretty much never left unless it was to go use the bathroom, shower or change. Sam would pop in now and again to check on us but Logan was nowhere to be seen. Anytime I asked, they would find a clever way to change the subject.“I guess you are not going to tell me where Logan is today, either?!”“Maybe you need to stop worrying. The doctor said you should be able to leave today. Everything is back to normal. Everything is looking good.”"Tell that to my body." Everything still ached. “So I will see Logan?”“Uh, probably not today.”“Why, where is he?” I knew he had to be on p

    Lana’s POV“You’re mad!” I mutter as I follow his finger. Looking out at the empty packlands, I couldn’t work out why he was seeing things differently to me.“Lana. It’s not me, it’s you.”“There is no one here!”He spins the wheelchair around so that I am facing him. “Lana, you are not making any sense.”Over his shoulder, I could see the pack's hospital. The one that I had just been in. It looked like it had been abandoned, much like the rest of the pack. The windows were broken, vines grew up over the building along with ageing cracks in the walls.Caleb follows my gaze, peering at the pack hospital. He looks to me and then back to the building. “What are you frowning at?”“You just brought me out of there?”“Yes. It’s where you have been for the last week.” His head keeps flicking back and forth between me and the hospital as he frowns.I didn’t understand. Nothing was making any sense. Why was Caleb seeing things differently to me?“It looks abandoned.”“What have you taken?”“N

    Logan’s POVI hated the fact that I was the one making her ill. Just one step inside of her room and she couldn’t even handle that. Her face screwed up from the pain and she even lied. Trying to tell us that she was okay.“Is that what Hallen said?” Freya questions me, her hand remaining tightly gripped on Lana as I retreated.“Not in as many words, but yes. He isn’t going to stop until he has Lana.”“I will never agree to it. I will never go with him.”“I don’t think he will give you a choice, Lana. I know Hallen, I have lived with him for years. He doesn’t just let things go.” Freya tells her. “I think you need to tell Logan the other thing.”I almost stepped back into the room, hoping that I would catch a whiff of her spicy scent. There was still nothing. Sam’s hand presses against my chest stopping me from entering. We were mates that couldn't even be together.“Tell me what, what’s happened?” I demand, trying to keep my concern out of my voice.“Nothing, yet.” I mutter, glaring a

    Logan’s POV“All of us were.” Anger was the least of my problems. My mom, my father. Our entire Pack. Liam and her sons, we had been nothing to her. We had all been used for the last two decades.“This needs to stay between us. Kendra betrayed a lot of people. Who knows what else she has lied about.”“Do you want me to speak to Dad?” Sam offers.“No, I think it will be better coming from me. Though it might be helpful if you are there.”“Sure. I still can’t believe she had a secret life.” Sam mutters as Freya is busy looking through the potions.“She may have played you all, but she was definitely ready for every scenario.” As she spins around, I see her holding vials in her hands. “Maybe it’s best if these go.”“What are they?” They looked like little pots of water.“Wolfsbane. She had enough to take you down, Logan.”“Wolfsbane doesn’t affect me in the same way as it does the others.”“Maybe not, but this much will probably do you some damage. It’s pure liquid wolfsbane.

    Lana’s POV“Well it clearly worked. You are holding her hand!” Freya sounded happy, but she was right. Someone’s hand was holding mine.“She still hasn’t woken though, has she?! How can you be sure it's worked?”“You are very impatient, Alpha Logan. Look at it this way. Her heart is not in vibration mode, it is steady. she isn't coiling up in pain. She will wake up when she is ready.”Wait, Logan was holding my hand. When he had moved towards me, he had made me feel sick. Pain had buzzed through my head until I passed out. How was he now holding my hand? Freya must have found a way to help.“Logan?” I mumble. Maybe I was dreaming, maybe they weren’t here at all.“Hey. How are you feeling?”“Confused!” I peek at him with one eye. It was definitely him, he was sitting on a chair next to my bed. His hand gripped around mine, a small smile played on his lips. He looked relieved.It takes me a moment and I realise that I could smell his minty hot chocolate scent.“See, told you it would wo

    Logan’s POVI was fuming. Sam had promised me no interruptions, so why was he not dealing with it. Why was his brother linking me?“Where are you, Caleb?” I growl through the link as I watch Lana disappear around the corner at the top of the stairs. I couldn't wait to get her all to myself later.“The forest. About a mile South from the pack house.”“And you can’t just tell me or in fact tell your brother.”“No, no I can’t!” There was a quiver to his voice. It did not sound good.Waiting for my erection to disappear took forever. Every thought went back to Lana which had me stirring again.It had been weeks since I had had my hands on her in Hallen’s dungeons. Now, every moment I was near, my body had me wanting one thing. It only made it worse when I couldn't be near her.Sam had questioned me over it. Asking me if I would ever be able to forgive Lana for what happened to my mom. When I told him that I already had, he had looked at me like I was mad.“I didn’t see that coming.” He ha

    Lana’s POVMy brother was dead. I was the one being accused. Logan didn’t even come and see if I was okay. Kicking the bedpost was a mistake. I practically snapped my little toe just as Logan lets me know that he needs to run some errands or something.He still wasn’t even bothering to come and check on me.When he hears me grumble, he starts questioning me. Asking me if I wanted him to come. He shouldn’t have to ask, he should have just known. Maybe he believed Freya, maybe he thought I was the one who had killed Sam and now he was keeping his distance.Through the window, I could see him. He was making his way towards the gates. For a moment, I wanted to go out there, but everyone hated me now. Everyone was blaming me for Sam’s death.A few minutes later, I see Logan walking back towards the packhouse. He wasn’t alone. A big man stood next to him. His dark hair cut into a mohawk. He was littered in piercings too. Giant ones in his ears that stretched them out. As they moved closer

    One year laterLana’s POVI never heard from Blake after that day. It was impossible for him to link me after I broke the bond between us. But it didn’t stop his wolves trying to locate me.For the first six months, it even made the news. That there was a new Alpha of Alpha’s. They gave my name and description, promising a reward if I was returned to them. But as time went on, my appearance on the news became less and less. The humans were losing interest. I was never spotted. I had had my hair permanently relaxed so I didn’t have to deal with the curls. I wore shades when it was sunny or brown contacts when the weather was rubbish. If I went out, I never went out alone. I was always with Dillon. A human.It had taken a couple of months before we officially became a couple. Though that didn’t stop us fooling around before then. Not once did I feel pressured with him. Not once did I feel like he was hiding something. He never hesitated to answer a question. He was different, he wasn’t

    Lana’s POV“I already know that.”“No you don’t. Not entirely.”Switching off the car engine. I turn to look at him properly. “What do you mean?”“Blake controls what he wants to control.”“I don’t follow.”“You really are naive, Lana. They told me that you were hard to convince. That you didn’t understand pack life. But you really can’t see what is right in front of you.” He pulls open the jeeps door, grabbing my hand, he places it on his chest. Just like Blake, he had no heartbeat.“How?” I mutter“We are all the same. Anyone that is under Blakes leadership ends up like us.”“Why would you follow him?” “Because it’s always too late. By the time we realise, there is no turning back.”“I don’t get it?”“Holy shit, Lana.” He shakes his head at me. “Are you just not willing to see it, is that it?”“See what? Blake said he made a deal.”“And you didn’t think to question it. He is the reason you killed Logan. He is the reason you chose him. He is the reason for everything.”“Why?”“Becau

    Lana’s POVLogan leans into me, gasping for breath. The Blade slips further into his heart. I couldn’t believe that I had done it. That I was the one to kill him. That I was the one to finally stop him.Xavier had told Blake that I was in the back of the car. Blake had talked me through the plan. He made it clear that I could not speak back to him. That if I were, it would give me away. That Logan would know.He told me that they were tracking me, that I would have to take a chance and throw myself from the car. I did exactly what I was told. The moment my feet hit the ground, I run into the forest. Logan had been steps behind me. If he had lunged forward, he probably would have got me. But Blake somehow pulls me away. Lifting my feet off the ground as he placed a hand over my mouth. He wasn’t alone. I could just make out Xavier and Abby hiding among the trees. Abby's eyes were looking in the direction I had just come from. Her lips moving.As Blake hands me the dagger. I felt the sa

    Logan’s POVShe had given herself to him. I could smell his stench all over her as I held her close. But she would be mine again soon enough. She doesn’t scream, she doesn’t fight me, even when I pin her against the door. She doesn’t even try to link Blake. In fact she does everything that I ask. Pulling her out of the window, I drop us to the ground. Checking that we were entirely alone before heading into the forest.Blakes men were stupid. They were easy enough to get past undetected. It helped that Lana followed me like a sheep. That she did everything I asked.Pushing her into the back seats of my hidden jeep, she still remains quiet. There was no heavy breathing, there weren’t even any tears. She looks back over her shoulder as I drive away from the new pack that Blake had created.“Don’t you dare link him.” I warn her. If she had already done so, there would be no chance that I would get out of the pack grounds alive.Her head moves up and down. Her brown eyes wide as they lo

    Lana’s POVHe was so angry. The grey of his eyes deepened as he snapped at me, pointing to the door. He must have seen the vision too. It was the only answer as to why he was so angry.“I don’t want to see Freya. I want to know what the vision means. I know you saw it too.”“It’s you.” He takes a step back. “It was never Logan. It was always you.”“I don’t know what you mean!” I did though. He had seen it as clearly as I had. The dead bodies piled up underneath me. The blood that was streaked across my face. How he and Logan were both looking up to me.“You know exactly what I mean Lana. Don’t try and play the fool now.”“I’m not… I…” I had no idea what to say and sit myself back down in his office chair. “I would never.”“Wouldn’t you? It’s not like you are sin free is it? You have killed wolves in your bid to find him. Your aim was to stop him.”“I didn’t, that was Abby. I was just… just there. I don’t want to do that. That isn’t me.”He lets out a sigh and shakes his head at me. “I

    Blake’s POVIt was like we had never been apart. Everything came flooding back. Every inch of her body was just as I remembered.Hurrying up the stairs, I run into Freya. She frowns and then asks if I had seen Lana. She didn't normally speak to me unless Calvin or Lana were around.“Yes, I’m just retrieving some clothes for her.”Her frown deepens until her brows suddenly shoot upwards, a big smile on her face. “Could you just tell Lana that I need to speak to her, like urgently.”“Is there a problem?”“Not exactly. Maybe, I guess. Nothing to do with Logan or anything thats happening.”She spins around and I catch the extra scent on her. She was pregnant.“You want me to tell Lana that you’re pregnant?”She turns back to me. Her eyes wide. “How did you know?”“I’m not stupid, your scent has altered to accommodate the hormones.”“I know you don’t like me Alpha Blake, this wasn’t supposed to happen. Not now, not ever.”“Have you told Calvin?”She shakes her head at me.“Then maybe start

    Lana’s POV“Logan is recreating the Blood Pack.” I mutter, casting my eyes in Blakes direction.“I warned you, Lana. I warned you about this shit. You should have stuck with the plan.”“The witch finally says something that I can agree with.” Blake sits on a bench against the furthest wall.I pull the collar of my tshirt down, “Can you get rid of this?”“It’s a mate bond, only rejection can.”“It’s not a true bond.”She gazes at me with her brown eyes, “He never confirmed it?”“No.”“He finally fucked up.” She mutters to herself. A smile spread across her face. “Lana, he screwed up.”“What do you mean, witch?” Blake spits on the ground. Clenching his teeth together.“That mark. He was supposed to confirm it. Kendra put it on you when she saw his mark. She used his blood to form a bond between you. Replicating his mark.”“Kendra? How do you know this?”I had had the mark for as long as I could remember.“Before she figured out the danger of what Logan could do. She thought connecting y

    Lana’s POVThere were talks every day. Some that I was shielded from, others where they encouraged me to talk. But I never had anything to say. Other than feeling like my head was going to explode.Blake was growing more and more pissed off when no one could come up with a plan. What Blake wanted to do was use me. I had agreed to it. But so many of the pack hated the idea. They thought that I would turn on them, or that Logan would use me to get exactly what he wanted.It didn’t help that Logan continued to call to me. He seemed to think that he could talk to me whenever he wanted. It was impossible for me to block him. He would never ask me how I was. It was always questioning me about Blakes plans. When I didn’t answer, he would grow mad and cut me off. And for a moment, I would find relief. He was choosing the Blood Pack over me.I had stopped trying to fight it or trying to hide it. Blake would always know. He had already said that Logan was trying to break me down. I finally beli

    Blake’s POVFive days had passed and there had been no sign of him. It was like he had fallen off the Earth. I sent people out everyday. But there wasn’t even a single piece of evidence that suggested he had returned home or that he had come anywhere near my pack.Lana wasn’t herself either. She would wander the house. Often deep in thought. I tried to talk to her but it was like talking to a brick wall. Anything that I said just didn’t sink in. Sometimes I would find her in a corner, muttering to Freya. They would stop talking the moment they saw me.I didn’t like the witch being here, but I had very little choice in the matter. Calvin had already marked the witch. If I threw her out, then I would have problems with my brother and Lana. It was a shitty scenario that I was trying my hardest to ignore. Aiming to focus on the bigger problem of Logan.More and more of my pack from Europe turned up everyday. New homes were constantly being built on the land. It was expanding quickly, but
