Kian povJessie pushes by me and walks over to where Cannon is standing."This is Elijah's office!" she says and I can't help but growl out loud."You're telling me Elijah is behind all this?" I say through gritted teeth and have to clench my hands into fists. When I get a hold of him he won't take another breath."yes, it is! But why would he be involved in this? He's just a human!" Jessie says when I see Cannon walk inside the office and we all walk closer to see him sniff around at everything before he comes to stand right in front of us in the doorway."He's a vampire! Who can mask his scent, something strange is going on here!" Cannon says when I try to remember if I noticed anything when I met him that day in the meeting room."I didn't pick up anything strange about him when we met at the meeting!" I say in anger and look at Cannon. How is it possible for us all to miss it? He has been right under our nose and none of us was alarmed about him!"you ain't the only one! And we ha
Kian povComing out in the living room I see them all standing over the table in the room and looking down at something.Walking closer I see some papers and a map on the table.Stopping by the table I look down and the map and see it's over the area behind the cave, where there aren't any packs and we suspect the rogue to have a camp.On one place on the map are some coordinates written, looking at it it's just partly written and I can guess one part of the location but not all."he probably has taken her there! On the other side. But what are the coordinates pointing at?" Declan says out loud what I guess we all are thinking about."Is this everything you have found?" I ask them and start to gather the papers. They are coming with us"I haven't found anything else!" Cannon says."There are some cans with herbs in the kitchen we have to bring back to Emma!" I say when I see Zoey walk over to the kitchen and come out after a little while with a can in her hand.She looks at it and I c
Kian povNo one says a word at first! Walking closer to where they all are standing I turn my head and look at Emma, I know there is something she knows."What is it, Emma?" I ask and have to contain my anger from bursting out, this is not her fault!I see her hang with her shoulders before she slowly lifts her eyes to look at me."The chocolate you brought is spiked with some of his blood!" she says and I see how sad she is in her eyes."the chocolate is what?!" I boom out and now I can't contain my anger at all! When I get my hands on him I'm going to enjoy my time before I end him!"Yes and I believe I know why he has done it!" she says in a low voice and takes a step back. I know my anger is about to burst, I only need a small push and I won't be able to control it any longer."Kian you have to calm down first!" Declan says and I feel his hand on my arm, I try to take deep breaths and get my emotions under control."tell me! Why!" I say and look at her. She takes another step back
Selena povFeeling a hand petting my head I try to open my eyes, my body feels numb and hot!"you're waking up! I was afraid it would take a lot longer." I hear his voice beside me and snap my eyes open to stare right at the ceiling.Feel his presence beside me on the bed and turn my head to look at him, he is laying there with a smile on his lips and just the sight of him sends a chill down my spine.I try to move my hands and my body but I feel numb and my body is so heavy."I drank a bit too much of your blood! Couldn't stop in time and had to give you some of mine to keep your heart beating, we will have to work on it once we are mated! I don't want to suck you dry because you taste so good" he says and leans closer to my face, I try to turn my head away from him when he takes his hand behind my head and holds a hard grip before he captures my lips with his.Holding my lips tight shut I try to move from my place when he lets go of my lips and head, his hand starts to travel down m
Kian pov She holds my hands in hers for a moment before she lets go and takes a step back, looking down at my hand I don't hesitate and take both lids off and swallow both potions in one go. They taste awful and I almost have them come up again. Handling her them back again I turn around and start to walk out of there with everyone else. "Cannon I need to talk with you before you leave!" Emma says and Cannon stops and turn back to her while the rest of us give them some time to themselves. Outside the house, we stop and wait for him on the lawn. "I have mind linked Jacob what's going on and he will handle everything here, you have two of your men here, shall they come with us?" Jessie asks and remembering who Cannon brought here I mind link them and ordering for them to head back with us. They are two of the best warriors to bring with us on this trip, they never hesitate to go into any fight! "yes, they are coming!" I tell her when Cannon comes walking out of the house with da
Kian povThe car ride has taken several hours, and I have used the time to look at every map of the area I can find and satellite footage.All I have been able to see is a thick forest over the area and nothing has been revealed on the ground."we're almost there!" Cannon says when we take off from the main road.It has started to get dark outside and it won't take long before the sun has completely gone down.Cannon gets a phone call and answers it!Trying to listen to who it is I instantly figure out it's Emma by the tone of his voice. He ends the phone call after a short moment and drags a hand down his face, at the sight of him, he didn't get any good news from her."can you tell me what that was about?" I ask him when he doesn't say anything."I guess we have found out how he can know about the herb and make the potions," he says when the car comes to stop outside the pack house and looking over at the entrance I see the Alpha and his men standing and waiting for us."How?" I ask
Selena povHe gave me the syringe in my thigh and the pain it brought to me made me pass out, I even wished for death to take me instead.I thought this was it when the bond started to fade away, it felt like a part of me where about to die when suddenly the thin thread that connected me to Kian stopped and pulled away. Just like it's laying somewhere deep down, not completely gone but broken.My heart feels like it has shattered into small pieces and the only one who can mend it together is Kian.Tears run down my cheeks where I lay in the bed, prisoned in my own body not able to move or fight him, my heart goes out to Kian, and the thought he won't survive this brings a sob to my lips, he is my mate!I should be stronger than this! I should be strong enough to fight for my destined mate, but I'm nothing more than a breathing blood bag right now to feed Elijah's obsession with me!Opening my eyes I look right into a pitch-black room, not a light in sight and I know it has to be in th
Selena pov There is some movement beside me I realize I'm back in the bed again and Elijah is laying beside me. Feeling my body and I have started to get some strength back, I feel it deep down something has changed, and starting to gain strength. "I hadn't planned for you to pass out again! I was about to give you a nice moment when you suddenly were out!" I hear his voice and open my eyes to see the room is still black, turning my head I see him laying beside me in only a pair of boxers, I feel relieved he didn't get to do something more to me! "Now is time for your refill!" he says and I know I have to buy myself some time to try and get as much strength back as I can, whatever he is giving me has me weak and unable to move, cut off from my wolf. "what is it you are giving me?" I ask the one thing I come to think of. "Nice to hear your voice again!" he says when I feel him get up from the bed and move around in the room before he turns on a light by the window. "It's a rare h
