ScottMy brain is buzzing by the time we have finally gotten the most life-threateningly injured into the car for safe transport to the pack that should be able to help us out of this desperate situation.Liam and I drive two SUVs while Albert, Taylor, and Bryan take the limousines so that we are able to transport them all. There are two pack doctors who are accompanying us as well in case something bad happens. But I could feel that even Doctor Simmeons was convinced about them being able to actually do something about any inconvenience occurring during the long drive. I refocus on Doctor Simmeons who leads us through the most important points of the transport. As the lives of the men we are transporting are all hanging by a threat, there are a lot of things we have to take care of to make sure that they don’t die on our way there. My heart begins to race as I think of all the possibilities that could happen in the worst case and I take a deep breath while my wolf paces back and fo
ScottMy heart beats painfully in my chest as I rip open the doors to my cars, enabling the warriors to lift the comatose bodies of my injured warriors out of the cars gently. I love how much care they put into their movements, being careful not to induce any further pain even if we barged into their territory uninvited, breaking the first rule of our race. Seeing the Alpha stepping out of the mansion again, I lift my head to see him opening the door with another man fully, while a group of people dressed in white coats storm out with stretchers. I push out a deep breath, happy about my pack members and friends getting the help they deserve. Praying to the Moon Goddess as I see the doctors approach, I ask for her mercy to save their lives. There will be a huge miracle needed, and I fear that I’m asking for too much. “Alpha Noah,” one of the doctors says as she meets him on the stairs, following the first two warriors of my pack who are being carried through the house as I suppose
AprilI scroll through my feed while my mother hums, turning the page of the enormous Newspaper. “Daniel has invited us to their house to celebrate our fifth anniversary with the pack with a nice home-cooked dinner. What do you think?” my mother asks, making me look up at her. “Oh, I would absolutely love that. They are so nice thinking about that.” She smiles, without taking her eyes off the article that she is reading. “Perfect, I’ll tell them that we would love to celebrate the anniversary with them and accept their invitation.” “Can’t wait,” I say loudly, taking a spoon of my scrambled eggs, making her giggle. After having finished breakfast, I get up with a groan as it is too early for me to actually function. I have spent the night before in the lab, thinking I would be able to take it easy today but just as I was about to go to sleep, I remembered that I had an important meeting with Doctor Koppler and Doctor Jones. With a heavy heart, I set my alarm for a time that would
April “Scott,” I breathe out in a whisper as I look at him in shock.I would like to pinch myself to see if I’m trapped in one of my nightmares, but I don’t seem to be able to move as I am frozen to the spot.As if in slow motion, I can see his expression morph. His initial shock slowly changes into desperation before it only shows pure hatred.Taking a step backward automatically, I gulp. “What happened?”He remains silent as he must be arguing with his wolf about tearing me apart on the spot and as my brain finally starts functioning again, I recognize the warrior that the medical staff are about to lift from the stretcher onto the hospital bed. I gasp at the condition Kane is in and walk to the bed as they connect the tubes to set up the intravenous infusion.My heart beats painfully into my throat as I try to ignore Scott’s burning gaze and concentrate on giving my staff the instruction to stabilize the patient.The patient. The man who I once used to call uncle, because he was
April “Tell me that they are lying.” Noah’s pleading words pierce through the fog in my mind, making me gulp as I look at him with glassy eyes. “I didn’t kill anyone,” I say, sadly not seeming that convincing as I gulp. “I didn’t kill their Luna. I was framed.” My old pack members scoff, as I keep my eyes on Noah, looking at him pleadingly. “You have to believe me that I’m innocent. Their Luna disappeared, but I had nothing to do with it, whatsoever.” “You are just the same deceiving, lying bitch that you always were,” Liam pushes out a dry laugh, making me turn to face them properly for the first time. My wolf roars in my head and lets her anger but also sadness stream through me as she suffers because of these accusations but also has to cope with the rage rolling off her newfound mate. And my childhood crush. “I know that you won’t believe me! You never did! Even if I was your friend, you just trusted everyone’s word around me instead of mine. I was tortured and cast out by
April “I, Scott Walker, Alpha of the Blue Amber Pack, reject you, April Foster, Daughter of Jax Foster, former Beta of the Blue Amber Pack, as my mate and future Luna.”His words pierce my heart like daggers, enhancing the pain of the rejection washing over me.I feel myself shaking as my wolf trembles at the stabbing pain, trying her best to cope with the painful rejection.After so many years, he hurts me deeply again.Holding my head high, I look him straight into his eyes, my body still yearning for him to inch even closer and press his lips on mine. The damn attraction of the mate bond. But it will soon disappear.“I, April Foster, cast out of the Blue Amber Pack and doctor of the Black Amethyst Pack, accept your rejection,” I say firmly, changing my attributes to underline my distance to the pack.I won’t take any disrespect anymore, so much has changed since I came here and was able to start a new life with people who loved me.So, if he wants to reject me then he gladly can,
Scott I can’t believe this.After everything that happened and after all the pain we had to go through, I reach the one person who could save us, and find April. I still can’t believe that she is the miracle doctor! My blood is boiling as I think of how long I had been looking for her, afraid that she would have been hurt or even worse. In the meantime, she was here. Living the best life as her doctor teacher’s favorite pet. What an idiot I had been! My wolf has retreated to the back of my mind and keeps growling as he tries to get over the pain. He seems to be angry at me for having rejected her right away. And as I think of it, I must admit that even if he was incredibly angry at her for hurting our mate, and still frustrated at my behavior as I kept looking for April, he fell quiet as soon as he recognized April as his mate. He might be angry at me for the rejection, but I couldn’t care less. April is responsible for Hailey’s death, and I don’t think that I could ever forgi
AprilWhen someone you have loved for years is not your mate and claims another wolf as his mate, it is not the most terrible thing in the world. The worst thing is when you wake up from an attack, and you are suspected of killing the one he loves.The more you love him, the more he will hate you.***My eyes hurt as I fight to open them to the blinding lights.Flinching at the pain streaming through me, I touch the bump on my head.That must have happened as I was attacked.I blink confused as the dazzling white slowly fades, and my childhood friend and crush Scott appears standing in front of my bed.And he doesn’t look happy at all.Oh, no!I sit up panicky, scooting back as if it would save me from his anger rolling from him in waves.“S-scott…” I stutter. “Wa- Wa…”I don’t even get to finish the sentence as he interrupts me, the corner of his lips twitching. “It’s Alpha Scott for you, April!”In a ceremony not long ago, he inherited the title of Alpha and found his mate, but... i

Scott I have my head buried in my hands as I sit in the hallway of the pack hospital, waiting for some good news. The doctors and nurses scurry around us while the rooms and even the hallways are filled with injured warriors. Even though we won, I couldn’t feel any joy about it, not even for a second. The destruction the attacking rogues and pack members of the White Opal Pack had left behind was much higher than we could have ever could have had predicted. It sadly looks like we underestimated them and they came to make us pay for that, taking advantage of our perception that we were more powerful than anyone. And we are surely the strongest, but they had the better plan. That’s for sure. I inhale a deep breath, straightening my spine to sit upright and stare down the hallway. My chest squeezes as I see the desperation on the faces of the hospital staff, who usually is known to remain calm and collected. They treat their patients with everything they can, but even I can see
Scott As the training is over, I start walking back to my office, taking fast and long steps. Luckily, I get to avoid another interaction with Ana, who is already charging towards me to chat with me casually as the training ends. She shouldn’t feel so comfortable around me anyway. It gives me the ick. But as she is the assistant of the pack doctor, there isn’t much I can do about this. I have to work with her on a daily basis, so I try to keep it friendly. And not to make it more awkward as it already is. Nearly reaching my office, I find my Scarlett in the hallway that leads to it. My sister is hanging a photo of my father with puffy eyes, and I halt in my tracks to help her. She sighs as she lets go of the heavy frame, allowing me to find the hooks that were applied to the wall to hold the picture. I hang the picture with a heavy feeling in my heart, pushing out a deep breath as I wrap my arm around her shoulders, looking up at the picture. “It’s a nice picture of him. Don
