"Sorry I'm late," Austin announced as he strutted in, with his head held high with his hands in his pant pockets. "I could barely get back through the door with the number of reporters swarming the place. You’d think the freaking Queen of England was here!” He walked over to the summit committee and began shaking hands.Austin found himself questioned about his presence at the summit meeting instead of their Beta, Alex. He calmly explained that Alex was missing and as the Aloha’s son he was stepping in for him in order to ensure that the important matters of the meeting were still addressed. Austin knew it was crucial for the pack to stay informed and up to date on any developments affecting them, and he was more than willing to do his part as a loyal member of the pack. The other members of the summit nodded in agreement, showing their appreciation for his dedication and loyalty to the pack but they still were secretly displeased as they were accustomed to only working with the Alpha
Arystyn knew that if she was going to save her husband, she would have to play a dangerous game. She had to pretend not to know about her brother's evil plans and act loyal to him, all while secretly trying to gather any clues about where her husband was being held captive. It was a risky move, but with her love for her husband driving her every move, Arystyn was determined to do whatever it takes to bring him back home safely. With each passing moment, she knew that time was running out and that she had to act quickly before it was too late.Oh, Austin I truly don’t know what I’d do if it wasn’t for your support! I just can’t imagine why Alex would leave his children despite our differences. Do you think he is planning to sneak back and steal our children? How will ever protect them? Austin looked at Arystyn and replied “ I have a place that no one knows about. I can take you and the children there and Alex will never find you. Bingo! This was exactly the kind of plan that she had ho
Arystyn couldn't sleep. She was too worried about her husband, Alex, whinhar give missing. She knew that time was running out, but she didn't know where to start looking for him.That's when she remembered her brother Austin's safe house. She and her twins, had been staying with Austin for a few days now, trying to lay low and stay out of danger.But maybe there was more to the safe house than they realized. Arystyn got out of bed and quietly and grabbed her phone. She only hooes that her message would go through due to her weak signal.In her text she she wrote "Devin I need your help,""What's wrong?” he texted back"I think I might have found a clue about where Alex is being held," Arystyn said. "Can you come with me to check something out?"Without hesitation, Devin answered I'll be right there. Arystyn got up and went to the safe house's basement. She explained to Devin,"I was looking for something in the pantry and found a map," she said, as she pulled out a crumpled piece of p
Arystyn held her twin babies Ari and Zander close as they trudged through the dense forest. Her heart was heavy, for her beloved husband Alex had been kidnapped by unknown assailants. Her brother Austin walked ahead of them, his eyes scanning the surrounding area for any signs of danger.Suddenly, a figure stumbled out of the bushes ahead of them. It was their biological mother, Lucinda. She was bloodied and bruised, her clothes torn and matted with dirt."Mother!" Arystyn cried out, rushing forward to help her.Lucinda reached out to her, her voice hoarse from screaming. "Arystyn, I've been attacked! They took me by surprise!"Arystyn quickly sent her brother Austin to go find help for their mother. But as soon as he was out of sight, Lucinda's true intentions were revealed.She lunged forward, grabbing Ari and Zander from Arystyn's arms. In horror, Arystyn watched as Lucinda handed the babies over to Austin, who had suddenly appeared from behind a nearby tree."Lucinda, what are you
Devin parked his Jeep next to the edge of the dirt road that led to the cabin. He got out and stretched his long legs, feeling the fresh air and the scent of pine trees around him. He adjusted his gun holster and checked his phone for any new messages, but there was no signal. He sighed and wondered if he should have brought more backup, but he trusted Arystyn's instincts and his own skills.He knocked on the door and waited, listening to the creaks and rustles inside. He heard a faint growl and tensed up, ready to draw his gun if needed. But then he recognized Arystyn's voice."It's me, Devin. Open up."The door opened slowly, revealing Arystyn's face, which was smeared with dirt and sweat but still determined. She wore her leather jacket and jeans, and her hair was tied back in a messy bun. Her eyes lit up when she saw him."Devin! Thank goodness you're here. Come in, come in."He stepped inside and looked around, taking in the cozy but cluttered interior of the cabin. There were em
As the sun began to set, Arystyn and Devin knew that they would soon face their greatest challenge yet. The Fredrickson pack had been causing trouble for months, and it was time for them to be stopped once and for all.With her special speed and levitation abilities, Arystyn led the way, darting through the trees and jumping over obstacles with ease. Devin followed close behind, keeping watch for any signs of danger.As they approached the Fredrickson pack's territory, they could hear the howls of the wolves echoing through the forest. Arystyn and Devin exchanged a glance, knowing that they had to act fast.Without hesitation, Arystyn lunged into the pack, her claws slicing through the air as she took down one wolf after another. Devin fired off shots from his gun, hitting his targets with deadly accuracy.Despite their fierce opposition, Arystyn and Devin weremore than a match for the rival werewolf pack. With their combined strength and determination, they fought their way to victor
Arystyn woke up and reached for Alex and then it all came rushing back. Alex was gone and she would never be able to look into his beautiful eyes ever again. Today they would be participating in his send-off service she didn't know how she was going to do this! She was all alone her children would grow up without their father! Why was life so cruel? All she wanted was to be happy and live a simple life! Her life was anything but simple. Time after time she had been accosted with one drama after another Alex was the one person who made her feel like everything would be ok. He was the one who saved her when she was attacked and had been turned. He loved her even when she did not deserve his love. Oh God! How was she supposed to do this?Arystyn dragged herself out of her big four-poster bed that she had shared with Alex for the past 3 years. Such a short time and she had wasted it. She had given in to Austin’s lies and believed that her mate had betrayed her. She still didn't know the w
Arystyn slowly made her way to the pack house to see who could possibly be here to speak with her on the day of her husband's send-off ceremony.Just as Arystyn made her way around the corner of the house her ankle turned and broke the heel of her shoe. Arystyn cursed out loud. As she started up the stepsDrake met her at the door on his way out. “Inqas just coming to get you,” he said hurry! Arystyn couldn't imagine what could be so urgent as she took off hershoes to walk easier. Drake grabbed her by the hand and pulled her up the stairs. Who is here to see me she asked. He looked at her and grabbed her suitcase andtold her to pack. “Drake I demand to know what's going on !” Drake said “Pack and I’ll explain on the way! “Arystyn was escorted out through the secret passage in the pack’s basement where Nanny was waiting with Ari and Zander. She and Drake rushed with Nanny andthe twins to a van waiting at the door. As they pulled out onto a back road they headed west away from the h
