“What is it?” Jazzy asked, rushing toward the cage. “What’s wrong?” “Get this gate open!” Hannah growled; Jazzy had never heard her raise her voice like this before. “Tell me what is going on, Doctor!” Jazzy demanded. “Those idiots gave her Starlight,” Hannah said through her teeth. “So?” Ja
Enzos POV As quickly as that dark cloud of smoke came, it disappeared, leaving us speechless in the middle of Hazel’s kitchen. We all looked at one another with large eyes and rapidly beating hearts. My mother had jumped from her seat and wrapped her arms around me as soon as she saw the darknes
Before Jazzy could say anything more, the door of the clinic opened, and Alpha Jonathan walked in. “What’s going on? I went downstairs and there are 2 dead rogues and—” he paused when he saw Lila lying on the clinic bed. “What happened?” He asked, his tone dropping to a whisper and the color drain
Lila’s POV I gasped as air slammed into my lungs. My eyes flew open to peer at a light that was shining directly in my face. Pain shot throughout my body as I felt tubes and wires sticking out of me. As my body trembled, I tried to grasp my surroundings. I had no idea where I was, and I wasn’t e
“She’s awake,” Dr. Laureen stated. “But she’s going to need to rest for a little while.” “We don’t have a little while,” Jazzy hissed through her teeth. “We only have an hour.” “Then get everything set up. By the time you are finished, she will be well enough. She has a fever and I’m pumping her
It felt like Xander was preparing me for something and now I think I know what it was. I kept my ears open for any sound around me. I heard a light heart monitor coming from another room and I wondered if that’s where Sarah was being held. I kept my eyes on Dr. Laureen as she spoke and travele
Lila’s POV My heart was pounding as I stood over Dr. Laureen. I had never done anything like that in my life and my adrenaline was rushing. I bent down and pressed my middle and pointer fingers against the nape of her neck and felt a pulse. I was relieved that I hadn’t killed her, but I needed t
“I don’t know what they told you, but these people aren’t what they seem…” I tried to explain; I didn’t know if she was going to believe me; but I really needed her to trust me. We needed to go before they found us. She glanced around the room before her eyes landed on me again. “They told me
“Did you hear?” Bri asked, a hint of a smile on her lips. “That my son was kissing your daughter?” I asked, raising my eyebrows as I looked down at a very red-faced Kayla. Bri nodded, and then we both glanced at Asher who was staring at Kayla with a pained expression on his face. Awe, my littl
I smiled and nodded as I stepped around her and back down the stage. As I walked back to my seat, my eyes glazed over at Enzo who was beaming at me. My heart swelled at the sight of him smiling. I could see how proud he was in his eyes, and it instantly made me teary. How was it possible to love s
Lila’s POV “Today marks a new beginning. It is a chance to redevelop ourselves and tell the universe the kind of people we want to be. Today marks our many successes and our many failures. A chance for us to screw up and then redeem ourselves. A chance for us to fall in love all over again. Today
I smiled at my toddler as I placed him in his highchair. “Pancakes it is,” I said fondly as I went over to the freezer and pulled out the pack of frozen mini pancakes. I put a few on a plate and popped them into the microwave. After I sent the timer, I made both Asher and Coope a juice cup and I
Lila’s POV 2 years later Asher woke me up bright and early as he did every morning. He’s lucky I love him so much. Enzo wasn’t in bed when I woke up, which made me worried for about 2 seconds before I remembered that he told me he had to clean up his stuff from the arena that morning. It was
She held up a light blue bear with a polka dot bow tie. This was the only toy that could get Cooper to sleep. “Oh, goddess,” I said with my face warming. If I couldn’t even remember my son’s bear, how was I going to do motherhood? Enzo took the bear from my mother and then went to pick up the
Lila’s POV “They are both Volana wolves?” I whispered, staring at the pups. My mother and Diana brought me the twins so that I could see for myself. When I was met with two pairs of violet eyes and two pairs of blue eyes, my heart swelled with joy. Tears instantly filled my eyes as I held my two
Enzo smiled at my words and then he cleared his throat before he began to speak. “I will always be your protector,” he said in return. “I’ll do whatever I have to keep my family safe. You, Cooper, and Asher, are my family. I will never let anything happen to you three. I know these last couple of
Corrinne and Flynn rushed to my bedside to look at their nephews. “They are so cute,” Corrinne whispered. “Lila!” I heard Bri say as she rushed toward me and threw her arms around my body. “You had us all so scared.” “I’m sorry to worry you guys,” I said through my tears, smiling up at Becca a
