*FREYA*

When the power started consuming me I dropped Velvet to the ground and let out a gasp. She looked up at me watching me in disbelief and I swallowed hard.

"You fucking bitch you almost killed me" she muttered bitterly while glaring at me.

Aniko placed her hand on my shoulder and ushered me out of the kitchen and escorted me to my bedroom.

Once we were finally alone she looked at me with concern.

"What happened?"

I shrugged carelessly still in shock from what happened in the kitchen.

"I don't know... I've just never felt so powerful in my entire life and I felt like I could do anything."

Our eyes locked and she grasped my hand.

"What if I killed her?" I whispered softly trying to process a new wave of emotions that had filled my bedroom.

I don't think that Lain would ever forgive me.

Aniko gave me a small smile.

"I would have stopped you before things escalated quickly."

I smiled at her.

"Thank you Aniko for being such a good friend to me."

She nodded quietly.

    *LAIN*I'm in my office doing a little paperwork when Velvet bursts through the doors like a mad woman. I closed my laptop shut staring at her in disbelief because this amount of disrespect was just too much. Maybe it was time to remind her who was the alpha of the pack."What the fuck is wrong with you?" She scoffed in annoyance and placed her hand on her hip pointing an accusing finger at me."You're my problem Alpha Lain. We would have been married by now if you just kept your dick in your pants like a real man but no of course you had to go after some orphan slut you don't even know."I chuckled darkly and stood up taking slow steps towards her.She crossed the line by calling Freya names and Axel wants to rip her head off and this time I'm more than willing to make an exception for him."Say that again in my face" I challenged and she remained silent.I squeezed both of her cheeks painfully bringing her face close to mine until our noses could touch."Velvet... don't make me do

    *LAIN*"Are you alright?" Freya asked curiously while she was laying in bed in my arms.I nodded quietly refusing to utter a single word but I could tell that she could feel the change of tension in the room and I couldn't allow that to happen.I kissed her on the forehead reassuring her that everything was alright and that she had nothing to worry about."I marked you tonight Freya and do you know what that means?" I asked in a low tone as her breathing sped up.She was feeling nervous or anxious and she looked up meeting my gaze."I'm guessing that it means I'm yours?" She exclaimed softly, making me smile and I've never seen anyone so innocent as her.I nodded quietly, wrapping my arms around her."Then why did you look so upset when Axel marked me?" She asked in a worried tone.My facial expression was probably easy to read since I freaked out.I sighed deeply."I wanted Axel and I to mark you on a very special day called the mating ceremony but I guess someone was in a hurry."Sh

    *LAIN*The broken look in her eyes said it all. I was glad that she hasn't connected the dots yet, otherwise she would hate me forever."Lain?" She whispered softly and I swallowed hard.I didn't make an attempt to move and tears filled her eyes."I'm sorry Freya."Axel wasn't even speaking with me at this point because I betrayed our mate and fed her to the hungry wolves. Everything was going according to plan. I just needed to earn her trust but he ruined all my plans by marking her.That wasn't supposed to happen.She shook her head in disbelief when realization finally hit her."You sold me out to the dark tide didn't you?!" She yelled furiously and I crossed my arms over my chest.When I didn't answer she scoffed in annoyance, staring at me. "It was never my intention to lie to you but since the first day we met at the club I was an assassin sent to murder you that night but things got complicated when my wolf claimed you."A gasp escaped her lips."So what, you were just playin

    *LAIN* I was chatting with my old friends from the dark tide when Galen summoned me to his office and judging by his facial expression I could tell that it was about official business.I followed him to his office and a few minutes later we were sitting across from each other."So finally meet again" I muttered quietly as he adjusted his reading glasses.A wicked smirk curved his lips and he looked more ugly. His age was catching up with him."How was your little vacation Lain? Don't you think that it's about time that you returned to your real home."He narrowed his eyes at me."Oh perhaps should I say the people who took in when you were alone, desperate and vulnerable" he exclaimed trying to get on my nerves.I scoffed in annoyance and leaned back in my chair."Are you really going to play that game? Because I think it's a very bad idea."He chuckled softly."Come on I've had nothing but good ideas this lifetime don't you agree? I created the best company in the world and I've eve

    *LAIN*I decided to leave the dark tide and fully take control of my father's pack and the first thing was to hold a meeting and address the people who were still stuck around despite everything that had happened in the past.Velvet was drawing circles around my chest humming softly and all Axel wanted to do was just bite her head off."I can't believe that this moment is actually really happening Alpha Lain...I never thought that we would be back together."Somewhere in the back of my mind she still lingered in my thoughts but I still wanted nothing to do with her.She was just a stranger to me."Alpha Lain?" She called softly.I pushed Velvet off me and sat up running my fingers through my messy hair and I turned to look at her."What is it?" She grinned at me."If you're officially going to become the Alpha of the moon raiders pack does that mean that you'll make me your Luna this time?" I chuckled darkly.I haven't even thought about ruling with a woman by my side yet and for n

    *FREYA*"Are you going to kill me?" I whispered fearfully and he wiped the blood off his lips using the back of his hand.He shrugged carelessly."Only if you're like a bad roommate but I'll keep you alive for now and see how things play out."My eyes widened in shock."You actually get to decide that?" I asked curiously and he smiled at me.He sat beside me."Nah I'm just messing with you but that doesn't mean that I can't kill you when I want to."I nodded quietly staring at the man who had forced himself on me and tears filled my eyes.He made me feel like garbage.The only person responsible for all my suffering was Lain navier edevane and the day I get my hands on him he'll regret ever meeting me.I sighed deeply and forced the pain back inside because I didn't want to shed a single tear anymore."What's your story?" I leaned against the wall and remained silent."Look, if you're still mad at that dead guy for what he did to you I have a dagger in my pocket and you can cut his d

    *FREYA*We arrived at a mansion that was in the middle of nowhere and I couldn't help but feel surprised because I had a feeling that Tate was hiding something about his real identity.He opened the door to his house gesturing me to come inside but I refused to move a muscle.He cocked a brow at me and crossed his arms over his chest."Won't you come in? I'm sure that you must be exhausted."A man who was wearing a butler's uniform came to welcome him and called him master and that only increased my suspicion."Who are you, Tate? If that's even your real name."He stared at me in disbelief."I'm your friend, the guy who helped you escape from the dark tide and if I had evil intentions I would have turned my back on you before we even came here or I would have killed you."I sighed deeply.Maybe I was just overthinking this whole thing.Our eyes locked and of course he won me over and I raised my hands in defeat."Look I'm sorry Tate it's just hard to trust people especially after what

    SIX MONTHS LATER*FREYA*That moment all made up this new version of myself and whenever I looked in the mirror I saw a monster staring back at me but this was different because I learned to embrace the monster inside.I was born to become a weapon designed to destroy mankind and that's what exactly I'll do without hesitation.Being away from the real world gave me a lot of time to think about what I actually wanted to do for my life and if my goals haven't changed they still remain the same.I still want to see Lain suffer.I've been patient enough and I've waited for six months. A couple of hours won't make a difference.Tate found me standing outside the patio watching the clouds."Thought I'd find you here, are you having second thoughts? Tomorrow is the big day and I believe that you're finally ready."I turned to look at him."No one is going to change my mind and I haven't worked my butt off just to quit when I'm so close to achieving my goal."He nodded quietly."Do you think

    *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
