KANE POV Savannah has been gone for three days now and there was absolutely no sign of her around the pack. I knew that she had snuck past the patrols and she was out of the pack now. I was miserable and missing her more than I ever imagined. Daniel was taking over the pack at the moment because I was in no shape to lead anyone. The word was definitely out now though. Savannah was my mate and she ran away. Her mother kept coming by the house in a drunken stupor and I was sick of dealing with her, so the guards were made to keep her away from me. I was afraid of what I was going to do to her if I lost my temper. And I didn’t want to be responsible for killing my mate’s mother. The alarm woke me up this morning but I ignored it and stayed in bed. I just didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. I didn’t want to face anyone or anything. I must have gone back to sleep because the next thing I knew, I was being woken up by someone in my room. I sat up in a sleepy haze and I
SAVANNAH POV As I sat on the floor crying uncontrollably, I suddenly felt the warm hands on my arms and someone kneeling down beside me. I felt the familiar sparks flying up my arms and I spreading throughout my whole body before I was game enough to look up and look at those beautiful green eyes that I knew I was going to see staring back at me. When I did finally look at him, I could see the pain and the sorrow in his face for everything that he had caused me. Everything that he had done to me. The reason why I was here in the first place. The reason why I was hysterically crying on the ground, and I never cried. That is what pissed me off the most. I had kept it together for so long and a man had undid all of that work with one action. And I hated myself for that. For letting someone get so close to me. When I managed to calm down a little bit, I stood up from where I was sitting on the floor and I moved away from Kane and out of his hands. He stayed kneeling on the floor
“SAVANNAH.” Bentley screamed from downstairs. I looked at Kane with fear in my eyes and I ran past him and down the stairs. They weren’t in the backyard and I ran through the house to find them in the front yard. I saw men standing everywhere in the street, and Kane was right behind me as I was staring at these werewolves that were approaching the house. One man in particular was leading them. I stood there staring at him, wondering what the hell was going on and what the hell he was doing here. “Brayden.” I said, shocked. “I’m sorry Savannah. Calvin would have killed me if I didn’t lead the men to come and get you.” Brayden said. “How the fuck does Calvin even know that I’m here?” I asked. “He’s had people watching this house since you ran away from his pack. He told me to bring you back alive. I’m sorry.” He said. “Stop saying that you’re sorry. You’re not fucking sorry, you back stabbing bastard. You just want to save your own neck by sacrificing mine.” I growled.
As soon as I was upstairs and I had put some clothes on, I was getting a little worried about what the others were going to think of me. I knew that my wolf was an anomaly and that it was hard for people to understand it. Especially an Alpha. They always had a big ego and needed to be the biggest and baddest wolf in their packs. Now that Kane had seen mine, I wasn’t sure if our conversation earlier meant anything. He might not want anything to do with me anymore. When I walked out of the loft and back around to the front of the house, Bentley was talking to a couple of neighbors who seemed to be playing dumb. Asking if this was another gang thing that was going on and Bentley said that it was. He was sorry for the disturbance. The neighbors all said that it was alright and that they will expect to see the fire going again tonight. It will probably be bigger than usual. I wasn’t sure what the hell was going on around here, but my brothers and their mates were gathering all the dea
We waited for a couple of hours after sunrise before we finally left the house and I said goodbye to my brothers and I got all of their numbers so I could keep in touch with them and not have to come all this way to track them down. Kane and I then got in the car and we headed for the highway, through the city and going the long way around just in case we were being followed. But we couldn’t see any cars that might be following us. That was a good sign to start with. “So, where are we going? We can’t go straight home.” Kane said. “Just slowly make our way home. Going in zig zags or something like that. I really don’t know.” I said. “Calvin won’t attack my pack because he knows that he will be outnumbered. The best chance he has would be to attack while us two are traveling alone.” “I know. Which is why we are going to be keeping our eyes open. Especially in the forest areas.” I said, looking out the window. “You’re brothers seem like really good guys. I can see why you wen
The flight back to Louisiana was uneventful, thank the Goddess. And when we landed Kane already had a couple of his warriors waiting for us at the airport. We were ushered to the car out the front and we got out of there as fast as possible. But it wasn’t long before I saw two black SUV’s following us. And Kane noticed me constantly looking out the back window at them. “Savannah. It’s alright. They’re with us.” Kane said. “What?” I asked. “They were waiting along the highway. They were making sure that we weren’t being followed and now they’re making sure that we get back to the pack safely.” He said. “Oh.” I said, relaxing into the chair. I was starting to feel really exhausted. I didn’t sleep at all last night and we’d been traveling all day. It was already starting to get dark, but we weren’t far from the pack. And I could feel my eyes getting heavy as the humming of the car was really soothing. I felt Kane put his arm around my shoulder and he pulled me into his ch
As soon as I saw the look on Kane’s face, I knew that Daniel was here to say that my mother was dead. It was way too obvious. “So, how did it happen? Booze or pills?” I asked. “Actually, she was found near the border.” Daniel said. “What was she doing near the border?” I asked. “We don’t know. But it happened very early this morning. We don’t know why she was there, there are a lot of unanswered questions right now. All we know is that, she was brutally murdered.” Daniel said. “What?” I asked, shocked. “That can’t be right. That can’t be my mother. There’s only one thing that’s going to kill her and that’s an overdose. Everyone knows that.” I said. “I’m sorry baby.” Kane said, squeezing my hand. “Calvin. His men have to be here. Surrounding this place.” I said. “That’s what we think. But we don’t know. We’re going to investigate this fully before we come to a conclusion. We’ve got our best people on it already and they will have answers for you very soon.” Daniel said.
KANE POV I really expected more of a reaction from Savannah after hearing that her mother was killed by a vampire. I know that it did shock her, but it didn’t send her into a fury like it did me. I think I was just more furious because I knew that vampires were hanging around the border or my pack. I knew rogues were, but not vampires. Why the hell would Naomi be out there meeting with them? Why the hell would she even go near the border in the first place. She was fully clothed, which means she wasn’t out for a run. The whole thing had me confused as fuck, especially the vampires that were hanging around outside the border. They had to have seen her and snuck up on her. Or something like that. That’s what I was thinking. That was until Daniel came back to find me. “Is Savannah here?” Daniel asked. “She’s upstairs. What’s going on?” I asked. “Can we go into the office? Where it is soundproof?” Daniel asked. So I led him to the office and he closed the door behind us. I
As I sat on the chair looking from cell to cell, all three prisoners were looking back at me, fear evident on their faces. And as Kane walked down between the cell's behind me, they knew that he wasn't going to be any help to them. He stood back and folded his arms, and let me have my way. "So, your my grandparents and you served your own daughter up to this son of a bitch on a silver platter." I said. "I told you she was evil." Dominic said. And I snapped my fingers at Dominic and forced his voice to disappear, because I wasn't talking to him. I wasn't ready to talk to him. "We needed someone that could control her." "She wasn't out of control. It's not her fault who she fell in love with." I said. "She was having a baby with a vampire." Elijah yelled. "Yeah. And who's fault is that? If you hadn't have had a baby with a faerie then my mother wouldn't have been able to get pregnant to that vampire." I said. And they both looked at each other. "What are you talking about?"
I woke up in our bedroom, a little confused as to what happened and Kane was laying next to me with his arm draped over my waist. "What happened?" I asked, trying to sit up. "Take it easy. You used a lot of energy today." Kane said, stopping me from getting up. I could feel worry in my stomach, but it didn't take me long to realize that it was Kane who was worried. Not me. I was feeling everything that he was feeling. "I'm alright. I really am. I just feel a little weak." I said. "The doctor was here. He said that you were physically fine. But after hearing what you did, he's not surprised that you passed out. Last time you used your powers, it took a lot of energy out of you as well. When you attacked Nicholas." "I didn't pass out that time though." I said. "I know. Because he was a vampire. This time you took on a faerie. It's a little different. You needed to use everything that you had." Kane explained. And I nodded in total agreement. I knew what I was doing while I was doi
As the living room of the packhouse started shaking and the furniture was moving across the floor of the room, I knew it would be so much easier to just simply give in to the anger instead of fighting it. And that was exactly what I wanted to do. In this very second, that's what I wanted to. Until I heard his voice. "Savannah. You need to calm down. Please?" Kane yelled from across the room. I knew that if I lost control now then I would lose everything that I had worked so hard for. My mate, my pack, my new family that I was forming here. And I couldn't do that. I knew that I couldn't do that. I closed my eyes and I took deep breaths, trying to push Millie and Elijah out of my head and I dropped to the ground with my legs crossed and I wrapped my arms around my body. Getting my body as closed in as I possibly could while taking deep breaths and I felt the room slowly stop shaking. But only the room stopped shaking. I didn't. I was shaking after I realized what I was about to
Kane shut the door and we both got dressed pretty quickly and we left the bedroom and we walked towards the staircase but I stopped before we started walking down the stairs. Kane turned to look at me and he asked me if everything was alright? But I just looked at him with worry in my eyes. I only just found out who these people were and now they were in my house. I didn't think that was a coincidence and I didn't know what to do about it. I didn't know what to think about it. I was scared to walk down those stairs because I didn't know what they wanted. I wanted to learn more about them before I met them. I don't know if they are good or bad. I mean, my mother was half faerie, which means one of these two are faerie. That's all I knew about them and I didn't know a think about faerie's. I didn't know if they were good or evil. I wasn't going to let fairytales fool me about real life. Kane held my hand, relaxing me slightly and he gave me a look, to let me know that everything w
When Kane pulled away from me I felt like something was already missing. Like he was too far away, yet he was right in front of me. I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him towards me again, bringing his lips down to mine and he smirked against my lips. He wrapped his arms around my back and pulled as close as humanly possible to his body and I couldn't help but let the moan escape my lips as he started moving across the room with me still in his arms. He gently laid me back on the bed and he laid over the top of me, resting his arms on the sides of me while he was still kissing me and I wrapped my arms around his back. He sucked my bottom lip into his mouth, letting out a little growl at the same time. Exploring my body with his hands. Sparks shooting up from everywhere he touched me and I couldn't help the moans escaping my lips at that moment. He slid his hand under my shirt and started running his hand up the side of my body until it got to my breast, where he stopped a
When I woke up one morning I rolled over and saw that Kane was missing. I didn't know where he was and his side of the bed was cold, so I knew that he had been up for ages. I went downstairs and looked around for him but one of the omega's told me that he had already gone out to training for the day. So I made myself a coffee and Landon was sitting at the table working on the computer as he was doing every day. "Have you made any progress?" I asked. "Yeah. I found your real grandparents and where the pack that they are from. They came from a place in Oklahoma. But their parents before that came from somewhere else." He said. "Yeah. You'll probably be tracing dozens of people all around the country to find out where it all started." I said. "Yeah. I believe I will be. It's going to take time, but I'm slowly making some headway." "Finally. Thanks for doing this. Just keep me updated...Hey, have you seen Kane today? Do you know where he is?" I asked. "No. He left pretty ear
We charged at the wolves attacking the bus and Kane claimed that he didn't recognise them or their scent. They weren't from around here. Which made us all question what they were doing here. But we didn't have time to ask that question. I jumped clear across the wolves on the ground and I barreled into the wolves that were on the side of the bus, trying to get their paws in the window to attack the kids. I stood on top of the bus for the kids to see, and they all stopped screaming when they saw me there. I was probably the largest wolf that they had ever seen. But I gave them a softer look than the others and then I heard them on the ground getting ready to attack again. So I lunged off of the bus and I attacked the two wolves that I just knocked off of the bus. "These people are human. We can't kill these wolves because they will turn back into their humans. We can only injure them and make them retreat." Kane ordered through the mind link. If we killed them and they turned bac
I stood at the top of the stairs that led to the basement because I really didn't want to go down there and face Dominic. Kane knew that I didn't want to go down there, and I hesitated for a long time. Long enough for Kane to know that I was there and he came up the stairs to see me. "I know that you don't want to see him. And I am really sorry for this." Kane said, holding my hands. "Can't you just get the names and tell me?" I asked. "He said that he will only tell them to you." Kane said. "Of course he did. Always needs to be in control, that son of a bitch." I said. He had a bad habit of that. He was always pulling the same shit with my mother. If she didn't want to do something, then he would manipulate her and he would do whatever was necessary to get her to do what he wanted. And a lot of the things that she didn't want to do were very well founded. Just like the morning when I found a strange woman walking out of my parents bedroom and my mother walked out afterwards a
Within a flash I saw Kane rush Dominic across the room and slam him up against the wall by his throat. Dominic was trying to breathe and looking around frantically while I just stood there watching Kane crushing his throat. He looked at me with pleading eyes but I just stared at him. "You have a lot of fucking nerve coming to me and asking for refuge." Kane growled in his face. "I didn't know." Dominic choked out. "What didn't you know?" Kane asked, loosening his throat slightly. "I didn't know that she was here." Dominic said. And he let go of Dominic's throat, but kept a tight grip on his clothing. "What the fuck does that matter? You beat your mate and your child." Kane said. "She's not mine." Dominic said with disdain and Kane punched him across the face, causing blood to started dripping from his nose. "Does it really fucking matter? She was a child." "Who is she to you anyway?" Dominic asked. "My fucking mate." Kane glared him in the eyes, and Dominic realized
