Lain Navier Edevane, an assassin haunted by his past, is on a dangerous mission to avenge the brutal murder of his family. Assigned by the dark tide, an organization that controls assassins worldwide, he has no choice but to carry out their evil commands. Galen, Lain's superior, hands him a picture of a girl, instructing him to eliminate target 0351. Lain, with a smug expression, asks when she should be killed. His superior warns him not to underestimate her, as she is no ordinary girl. Lain has one hour to complete the mission, knowing that failure is not an option, as it would cost him his life. Galen handed Lain a picture of a girl. Lain frowned, disliking dirting hands. His superior ordered him to eliminate target 0351, warning that she was not an ordinary girl. Lain asked when she should be killed, and was given an hour. Failure meant death. Lain recognized the supernatural nature of his target, but his tracking abilities made finding her easy. In the club, he spotted the only redhead. In the dim light, Lain drew his dagger and approached the drunk girl with precision. As he was about to stab her, their eyes met and something awakened within him. “MATE!”
View More*FREYA*I got on my knees and let out a scream as tears blurred my vision.I don't know what happened but raw power filled me and I let my fire take over. Something my mother had warned me about and in an instant I was standing face to face with Galen who looked horrified and dropped the gun he was holding.His lips trembled in fear."Freya Allan... don't kill me we can talk about this...I made a mistake" he pleaded but it was already too late.My fire consumed him as the night was filled with his screams of pain and watched him without any remorse until his body became nothing but a mere skeleton.I let go of it and it dropped to the ground in a pile of ashes.Whatever was controlling me it wasn't Ember and it was something more powerful.I rushed to my mother's side to make sure that she was okay. Luckily the bullet only hit her shoulder.Her face softened."I'm okay don't worry about it...but Rogue needs that antidote." I nodded quietly.I wasn't going to let anything happen to
*FREYA*My mind was still reeling from the shock.I can't believe that he cut me off but I sighed with relief because I had figured out Rogue's location."Don't do anything hasty Freya Allan you need to inform Alpha Lain so that he can help you" Ember muttered in a worried tone.I scoffed in annoyance."If I hadn't listened to Lain in the first place none of this would have happened and Rogue would be still with us. I know that once I tell him he's going to screw up the rest and put our daughter in more danger." Ember sighed deeply."I get why you're scared Freya Allan but Alpha Lain is now our mate and husband so we can't handle this situation alone."I nodded quietly."I'll tell him about the dream link and Rogue's location but I'm mad at him for risking our daughter's sake for some rivalry with his old boss or whoever that man is."Ember sighed with relief.Once I cooled down I explained about my father's message using the dream link and my mother and Lain seemed surprised that my
*ROGUE*I slowly opened my eyes trying to adjust to the bright light and I groaned deeply because I couldn't move.I was bound to something.I took a deep breath trying to calm myself so that I don't alert them that I'm awake.I closed my eyes when I heard footsteps in the room.Deep down I still couldn't get over what Tate did to me. I stupidly thought we were friends or mates as my mother put it but I was wrong and I fell into his trap.Why did it hurt so much? He was the first friend that accepted me even though people used to mock me because they believed that I wasn't my father's daughter.I heard the door being closed and opened my eyes, sat upright and noticed that my wrist was tied to some rope like a little puppy.I didn't like it.I slowly untied the rope and got out of bed.There was no one in the room and it had so many doors.I felt like I was trapped in some horror show.My bare feet felt numb as I wobbled trying to walk to the door. Once I was close enough I opened the
*HEROD*I sighed with relief when we came back to the headquarters of the dark tide without any complications.But we weren't alone because Tate had joined and I must say this kid had some nerve to betray his best and act like shit didn't happen."You doing okay?" I asked curiously because his gaze was lingered on the girls face.He looked up meeting my gaze and his face remained motionless."I'm perfectly fine it's just going to suck for Rogue when she realizes that she can't get the princess treatment anymore."I shrugged carelessly."I thought she was your friend."His lips turned into a thin line and he remained silent as he debated his next words."I thought she was my friend but that was until her father ruined my family. I know that I can't take my revenge on her father so she'll just have to take the fall for him."I nodded quitely.Once we reached the location I carried Rogue in my arms and placed her on the bed.Her skin had turned pale and black veins were appearing on her
*Drex*Lain looked like he was on the verge of losing his mind when I stepped out of the torture room for a few minutes.This guy wasn't willing to talk and Rogue was running out of time if Freya Allan finds out about this all hell is going to break loose.I groaned deeply as I ran my fingers through my hair, closing my eyes as I took in the crisp cold night air.I heard footsteps at a distance."Having a rough night?"That was a woman's voice.My eyes slowly opened as a woman holding a suitcase stood in front of me but she wasn't just an ordinary woman.She was my woman.My eyes widened in shock."Elisa?" She gave me a small smile and put on her heels on the ground."Uh that's not the welcome I was expecting but it's not to see you too love of my life"she taunted .I frowned at her still trying to recover from the shock.I grabbed her arm."What the hell are you doing here?" She narrowed her eyes at me."I came to stay with you since we can't be together in New York. You love your
*ROGUE*I stayed close to my grandmother Hestia when a lot of pack members surrounded my parents. I guess they were pretty happy that my parents finally ended up together.But I wanted to give them a hug too.Someone tapped me on the shoulder and when I spun around I was stunned to find Tate staring at me.A big smile curved my lips and I wrapped my arms around us.He pulled away and gave me a small smile."I thought you hated me. '' I muttered quietly and crossed my arms over my chest.He had given me the cold shoulder.My grandmother looked between us."A friend of yours honey?" She asked curiously with a mischievous smirk on her face.I shrugged carelessly."I don't know about that grandma Hestia, someone told me that we weren't friends anymore and yet he came looking for me."Tate looked at my grandmother nervously."I'm sorry but can I talk to Rogue alone?" He asked.I turned to look at my grandmother."You guys can talk, just don't go anywhere far because your mom and dad we'll
*FREYA*Today was the day of my wedding but I felt more nervous than ever and it wasn't because I was getting cold feet it was rather because of Lain's plan.I couldn't shake off this feeling that something was going to go horribly wrong and we would only endanger many people if we went on with this plan.Aniko had only given birth a few days ago and the pack doctor advised her to get plenty of rest but here she was helping me do my hair and makeup because she couldn't bear the thought of missing my big day.Brandon was stuck babysitting their newborn Hunter.If she only knew the truth.We decided to keep the wedding real and only Lain, Drex and I knew about the plan to lure out the dark tide.I looked in the mirror and couldn't even find the urge to smile and Aniko noticed that something was up.She crossed her arms over her chest."I feel like you're hiding something from me so spill the tea, what is it?" I forced a smile and made it look as natural as possible."I'm just nervous b
*HEROD*Just as expected Lain had fallen into our trap and went ahead to plan the wedding despite what the mistress had left him behind.What happened to that kid was too cruel and her death still hangs over my head because I am filled with guilt."You didn't have to kill that little girl, we could have murdered someone else or even one of her parents."Her screams still filled my ears and on top of that I couldn't get that gruesome scene out of my head.It kept replaying in my head over and over again and I couldn't shake off the feeling that something dark was always lurking in the darkness.Missy put on her bra and I have a strong feeling that Galen is going to give her an earful because she's been avoiding his calls and she hasn't gone back to his house since we left the hospital.It's been two fucking days.When I say fucking days I actually mean that bedroom shit.She pouted her lips."Come on, Herod , it was necessary to kill a little girl so that Lain doesn't get too comfortab
*LAIN*My head was still reeling from the shock and when I tried to call that number again the line wouldn't even go through.I groaned deeply, running my fingers through my hair.Freya Allan was always right about these people and they'll never leave us alone and now that Rogue is in the picture her life is in danger as well.A few days earlier Freya Allan had insisted that I do another DNA test secretly and I was against the idea but eventually I had to give in and when the results finally came back they were positive.Rogue is my flesh and blood and nothing will ever change that.But the revelation of the first DNA test only means that someone tampered with the first test and I have a strong feeling that Velvet had something to do with it.I sat in my office chair debating my next move because I wasn't letting the dark tide ruin my happiness. They did it years ago and I won't let history repeat itself.There was a knock on the door and I snapped out of my thoughts.I had to get ba
*LAIN*I woke up to the sound of laughter and groaned in annoyance.It was my little sister Nyra, probably joking about something with my dad.I grabbed my nearest pillow and covered my ears to block out the sound.“Lain you have to wake up, its Christmas morning.”My mom was knocking on the door and Sooner or later, I knew that if I didn't get my lazy ass out of bed, she was going to grab me by the ear and force me downstairs.I groaned deeply.“I'm coming, mom, I just need a minute.”I heard her footsteps slowly fading away and tossed the covers to the ground.Ever since I turned sixteen, I turned into the black sheep of the family and I would rather not do anything fun.It's like while growing up I was killing the kid inside me, but it wasn't exactly easy to act like a kid, especially when your father is the alpha of the pack, and you're next in line.I stripped out of my clothes and stepped into the shower as the cold water drenched me.I was one of those kids who weren't too happ
