Eloise's POV:I don't get it. Why is he angry? And what is he talking about? A witch? Abbie was alone. And if it so happens she brought a witch along with her from her mission, I would have sensed itSo why is he dragging me like this in the hallway? I looked at the path he was heading and saw he was taking me back to that room. I ripped my hand out of his grasp. In response, he whirled to me and growled.I flinched. Kaden's eyes flickered to his wolf's. For a moment, I felt speechless, dumbfounded by his seething anger."I-I don't know what you're talking about." I stuttered."The fuck you don't," he snapped. His tone made me jolt. I looked up at him. But he looked at me with nothing else but anger. His body is shaking, and there is no tenderness in his eyes like the way he looked at me while making love. It was gone. My wolf whimpered, and deep inside, so did I. "Then make me understand," I whispered, my voice shaking.Kaden looked at me fiercely, and I tried to reach for his han
Kaden’s POV:Colton and I shifted into our wolves as we headed to John’s territory. It’s faster that way. Besides, I wanted to burn off some steam.Many lives were lost over the past couple of days, and now we have a new problem in our hands.Just a day ago, I found out Eloise’s little friend was hiding the gravest secret of all. Colton called me over the pack clinic, saying he had no choice but tell me what Eloise was hiding. Apparently, the pack clinic was where she has been for the past few days I had searched for her. And she’s been right under my nose.Colton suspected something was wrong with her friend, Abbie. And when we saw her tattoo… A crescent symbol branded onto her body was a clear sign of what she is. A hybrid, a witch.They are vile and deceitful snakes. You can never trust them. That is why werewolves and witches are at war since the very beginning.I had her locked up in the basement until I decide what to do with her. Of course, I made sure her wounds continue to be
Kaden's POV: One look at Colton and I knew he and I were thinking the exact same thing. Something is definitely going on here.“What is that smell?” I sniffed again, my brows furrowing.I scanned the room but found nothing disturbing other than the ridiculous amount of glass bottles filling up the space.“What smell?” John asked nonchalantly, looking around the living room then back at me.When I sniffed again, the scent is gone. It was brief, yet I smelt it. I know it was there. I couldn’t have imagined it.The smell of blood.“Probably the meat, I was about to cook it before you barged in,” John grumbled, heading back into the kitchen to retrieve something from the freezer. I freeze.Colton and I exchanged looks again before John walked over to us holding a big chunk of meat in his hand.I stepped towards him, letting my nose do the work.He’s right. The pork was bought fresh. My wolf, however, still felt something was odd.John set the meat down a container."John, let me be hone
142Eloise's POV:Adeline, are you sure this is the right way? I try to ask my wolf for the hundredth time, but all I heard from her for the past hour were grunts and hums that didn't even sound right. See that tree over there? We have passed by that tree fifteen times already. This is the same clearing we reached only going on different paths, yet we end up in the same one.Adeline still wouldn't answer me. She had been silent ever since I shifted. Well, I kind of forced the shift, even though she warned me there would be consequences if I did without healing properly first. But I can't stand idly by while the thought of Kaden discovering my Mum in her state, and the fact that Dad had been hiding her for the past year might become a reality. For an Alpha, that would be treason. I pant, feeling the weight of my body gradually press down on me like deadlifts, and I doubt I can keep up. My head is a mess right now, with my vision a steady blur and my foresight unusually inaccurate.
Eloise’s POV:I have never seen eyes that glowed like that before, nor have I ever seen wolves, rogues at that, bearing the same eye color.‘Be careful, Eloise.’ My wolf warned me. As I thought, not even Adeline could tell how the hell these rogues turned out the way they are.They exuded a strange aura, the same but strong aura none of them should be able to possess. As a matter of fact, once a wolf turned rogue, their aura ought to be diminished little by little. And by the time they had turned feral and completely lost their sanity, their auras should have been as good as gone.But these rogues…Their aura is surprisingly strong, which was in itself impossible.I gave my wolf a nod of acknowledgement just before the largest wolf lunged right at me. Just in time, my body reacted and I ducked my head, sprinting forward, but the action caused enough pain shooting through my body and I winced.Ignoring the pain, I attacked the largest wolf just as it turned around to bare its sharp tee
Kaden’s POV:‘Alpha, we found her.’ The pack link split through my head. The words sending an instant relief through me and I come to a screeching halt after running for miles for hours. If I were being honest, the run was driving me crazy.Eloise isn’t in any condition to be wandering around outside the pack house. Hell, she shouldn’t even be one foot away from her bed.Everyone knows that she-wolves mated to Alphas turn extremely weak after their Alpha mate successfully broke their heat. Eloise does not just happen to be my mate, but she is also Alpha by blood. In terms of sex drive, Alpha females are on par, or they might even exceed an Alpha’s sex drive. She may not remember everything from the past three days she had gone into extreme heat, but I had kept my eye on her and could say she had the drive of two she-wolves combined. Her wolf took that opportunity and dominated me in every way and I let her. And fuck, did I relish every singly moment of it.She was beautiful as when sh
Eloise's POV:I groan, blinking rapidly. My mind is in a whirlwind of complicated emotions as I try to figure out where the hell I am. The last thing I remember was the sound of growling and snarling as a fight breaks loose all around me. Rogues. And one I couldn't seem to get off my pounding head.The wolf with blue eyes.He helped me. My head whips up so fast and I gasp when I remembered everything that had happened so far.And that scent that engulfed me while my body felt like it was flying in the air, lingered close. Logan.He saved me, didn't he?"You're awake." My head snaps to my right as a shiver snakes down my throbbing, aching pussy. It hurts so bad. And I'm not even exaggerating it.The voice had broken out so close right next to me, before I was even aware of his dark figure leaning against the wall and his arms crossed against his chest."Kaden," I blow out a breath as I take him all in. His hair sat a sexy mess on top of his head, looking like he'd run his fingers thr
146Eloise’s POV:Shaking my head, I hold back angry tears before they rise to the surface. The hallway is wrapped in suffocating silence, which also means he did not follow after me.Good. If he really wants my trust, he would let me wallow in my regret for ever coming back here in the first place. I swallow the lump in my throat, and walk faster before turning around the corner.The next moment, I slam into a hard chest that has me stumbling backwards, and I lose balance. I brace myself for the fall as I feel my body leaning back. I squeeze my eyes shut knowing this has got to hurt but surprise fills me when a hand wraps around my waist and my back hits something hard. And that is not the cold, tiled floor of this ridiculous mansion of a pack house.“Look who finally woke up,” a deep chuckle resounded in my ear, and I blink my eyes open.“Logan,” He flashes me his handsome smile and places me gently back on my feet.“You scared the shit out of me,” I chuckle, unable to hide the ne
Eloise's POV:Kaden slits his eyes and looks at me, "Eloise," "No." I glue my feet to the ground, letting him know I am not going anywhere until he listens.Why does he want me to leave so bad?"You have to listen,"Kaden moves his gaze between me and Logan who tosses a knowing smirk my way.Kaden sighs, "Fine." He grunts.Logan gives me a nod, and I turn back to the wolf, Walter.I extend my hand, slipping it between the bars which inevitably elicits a growl from Kaden. I shoot him a glare and he does not move, but his eyes are glued to my hand, preparing for the worst.Before I can place my hand on the wolf's fur, he leaned forward, pushing his forehead onto my hand instead. The moment my fingertips brushed his fur, my eyes roll to the back of my head as I am transported to a place where my feet is rooted to the grass. I felt my soul leave my body as visions began to flash before my eyes in nanoseconds, but I feel as if I am right there.I blink, opening my eyes slowly. When I look
Eloise’s POV:The cells is probably the filthiest place in the pack house. While everything above these old cages are filled with luxurious pieces from floor to the damn ceiling, everything down here gathers dust and filth. What’s more, I feel like the prisoners here were plucked and tossed into the pit of the abyss, never to be seen or heard from again. And it reeks of blood and feces that can never be seen clearly as not a single ray of sunlight touches these dark cells.Is this what the rumors were all about when they labeled Kaden as the notorious, merciless alpha ever known?I can’t believe this. I can’t believe him.I step towards the cell Logan has brought me to see, and I duck my head to see the same wolf who took my side unexpectedly that day I was attacked in the forest.“Hello,” I speak out, trying to reach him. He was still in wolf form, curled up facing the far wall.“Can I talk to you just for a second?” As my eyes focus on his form, I furrow my brows when I see blood co
