JAYSON

I'm going out of my fucking mind.

I'm in my office. Stewing. It's been three days since Luke got back and my emotions are amped 100 times. Of course, it doesn't help the fucking moon is tonight.

I was going to have the best time with Sarah. I was going to dance with her, kiss her. Make love to her and mark her. Making her mine forever.

Now, I don't know if I'll ever see her alive again.

I pound back a shot of Whiskey. There's a knock at my door.

"Come." I bark.

The door opens. "Hello, son." My father walks in.

My eyes narrow. "What do you want?"

"Son." He walks in.

"Don't fucking son me. You sold us out!" I pour another glass and sip it.

He shook his head. "I had no choice. The council twisted my arm."

I pound back my shot and slammed my glass on the desk. I stood up. "No! You had a fucking choice! You're just too much of coward to stand up to them!"

"We can't fight them, Jayson! When are you going to realize that?!" He yelled back.

"Oh, I'm fighting them. They will pry this pa

    JAYSONAfter our mate bonding experience, I led Sarah down the hill to the car. I grabbed a blanket from my trunk and wrapped her in it.I put her in the car and texted everyone to tell them I found her.She fell asleep almost instantly the whole two hours home. Keeping an eye on the highway, I would glance over at my angel. Moving her hair so I can see her face.As I looked out at the road I glanced up. Looking at the moon now past its peak. "Thank you." I whisper to it. I never believed in cosmic beings but I'm sure now, there's something out there and I thank fuck it was listening to me.As we pull into Black Lake, she stirs."Hey, kid. Have a good sleep?" I smile at her.She gets up. Her hairs a mess but I don't care. She could look like hell warmed over and I'll still love her to death. I will admit though. She needs a shower."How long was I asleep?""Two hours. Has anyone told you, you snore?" I grin.She slaps me. "I do not!""Oh yeah, you do. I almost pulled over because I th

    SARAHAs soon as we got downstairs, Jayson handed me his phone. "Call your mother." He nodded.I dialed my mom. When she answered and I told her I was safe, she could barely talk.They were at the packhouse in ten minutes.Shane busted through the door. "Sarah!"I smiled. "Here." I called from the common room.H saw me and ran full tilt into me knocking us to the floor. "You never leave me again!"Jayson came out of the dining hall with a cup of coffee to see the commotion. He saw us on the floor giggling like children.Shane got up and helped me up. He wiped his eyes and tried to act all tough. "If you do that to me again, I'm going to knock you out." He shook a fist at me."Oh please." I scoffed. "I can take you out with one hand behind my back."He hugged me again."Hey, brat." Maddie was crying. "Don't scare me like that. It causes wrinkles you know."I laugh through the tears that start to fall. The three of us hug.Jayson watches us. He walks over to my parents. "Adam, Marie. Ho

    JAYSONGod, I love being in love.Sarah's my everything. I feel like I can do anything. Stand up to anything. Fight anything.She gives me so much power.Seeing her stand up to River like that had me beaming with pride. My Luna doesn't take crap from anyone. Not even Alphas. Especially when her home is involved.Which us why I wish she was here right now with me while I meet with Alpha Andrews and River. Apparently, he called back up. That being the Alpha of Falcon Ridge.I'm sitting in my office with these two across from me at the conference table.Andrews has his hands folded. "Alpha Duke.""Please. Call me Jay." I smile as I lean back in my chair. I'm probably cockier than I should be right now, but I don't care."Jay." He sighs. "You know you don't have a leg to stand on here.""See. That's where you're wrong." I sit up. "Since I'm now the new Alpha in charge, I have full right to disrupt or destroy any agreements made by my father.

    SARAH"Maddie, I thought you said you were going to help me." I glare at my sister, filing her nails on my couch."Don't you have people now to move those?" She waves at the piles of boxes surrounding me.I stomp over to her. "I don't have people. I have you. Come on." I grab her hand and pull her off the couch."Sarah, I'm going to get all sweaty." She whines.My dad walks in with a box. "Maddie, help your sister." He warns.I shove a box in her hand. She rolls her eyes. "Fine." Carrying the box to Jayson's room."Whoa!" Vic almost walks into a tower of boxes."Checking in?" Nate teases."Hi, guys!" I run over and give them both a hug. "I missed you. I have so much to tell you."Vic pushes past headed for the dining hall. "I'm starving."Nate looks around at the mess I've made moving into the packhouse. "Apparently."Maddie comes down and Nate sees her. Not taking his eyes off her, he waves me down. "Later though." He walks over to Maddie. "Hi. I'm Nate. You are...." He reached out h

    SARAH"Sarah! Get up!"The harsh knock on my bedroom door, pulls me out of a hot, steamy dream. I was just about to plant a big, wet one on Chris Hemsworth, when my mother's irritated voice smashes it all to hell.I roll over, groaning as my eyes blink to adjust to the light flowing into my bedroom window. I rub the sleep out of my eyes and pick up my phone to look at the time.7 am. Ugh. I throw my phone down, pull the covers over my head and try to get back to Chris' hard muscles and kissable lips.I was just about there when another knock came. "Get up, loser. We're going to miss the bus!"Argh! I throw the blankets off and spin around, planting my feet on the floor. I'm not a morning person at all.I scrub my hands on my face and stumble to the bathroom. I'm still groggy as I look in the mirror.My blue eyes are puffy. My long blonde hair a rat's nest. I look like hell, which is a perfect reflection of what waits for me today.My name is Sarah Reynolds. I live with my parents, my

    JAYSONI look at my watch for like the hundredth time."The busses are late." I grumble.Cass claps my back. "Relax. It's just a few minutes."Cass is basically best friend number one. With his ripped muscles and brown hair and hazel eyes, he could get any lady he wants. But of all my friends, he's the most like me. Doesn't date, yet doesn't mind relieving himself every once in a while, with a girl. The only thing we differ in is he's waiting for his fated where I'm not even trying."I've got shit to do." I stuff my hands in the pockets of my sweat pants."We all have shit to do, buddy. Just chill." Luke shoots me a look, telling me to calm down.Luke's ok, but don't piss him off. Huge anger issues. He's not scary looking. Shorter than me by a few inches, brown hair, hazel eyes, but when he's mad, look out. He's put many in hospital just for looking at him wrong. When he's not a raging lunatic, he really is a nice guy. Huge flirt with the ladies. His tough guy act really gets them goi

    SARAHRemember when Ash said these training places were filled with hot guys?Damn, she wasn't kidding. Some of the recruits are hot, but those Alpha dudes, wow.All of them have hard muscle for days. All belong in a magazine. As I walk off the bus, I scan each one head to toe.Drooling, I swear I'm drooling here. The one has this bad guy look going on. Wearing a black cut off and sweats. The ink on his arms is mega sexy. The next guy is completely hot. Big grin. Looks like lots of fun.The third guy is all Alpha. He can dominate me any night with his tribal ink, thick arms and gorgeous brown hair.Then there's, holy shit, Jayson Duke?Jayson, the son of our Alpha. Man, did he grow up. It's been a few years since I’ve seen him last and it wasn't up close.He's completely ripped. Slightly tanned, perfect skin. Perfectly cut light brown hair and blue eyes. His chiselled features make me heat up.When my eyes caught his, it was like I was trapped. Locked in his gaze. Which made my core h

    JAYSONI shouldn't have touched her. I shouldn't have fucking touched her. What hell was I thinking?It was supposed to be innocent enough. Just training right. So, fucking wrong.When I touched her, this electric heat went straight through my body.Her scent of sweet flowers and honey hit me like a truck. It filled my brain. Making me light headed.I had to get away from her. I gave her back to her partner and continued my rounds.But every five minutes, I'm fucking looking at her. And what's worse is the fucking semi in my shorts. What the hell?I can't seem to focus so I pass the group to Wren and head to my office. Kale meets me in the hallway.He claps me on the shoulder. "She's in at 5am again tomorrow?"I put the key in my door and unlock it. "Yeah. Why?"He rubbed his neck. "Just asking. Wondering if you changed your mind."I shake my head. "Nope. 5 am for the whole week.""Great!" He smiles. He claps my back.I turn to him. "Kale, don't even think about it."He smirks. "Whate

    JAYSON"Ok, Shane. Hit me." I hold up the pads as Shane stands on front of me with taped fists.He strikes the pad. "Good. Again."He strikes the other. This time harder. "Excellent."He hits the pad again. This time I'm feeling it in my hands. "Good job, buddy...."I watch him as his face slowly changed from concentration to anger. He hits the pads faster and harder. His breathing is sped up. His body tensed. My hands are really starting to hurt as he hits the pads over and over.I look at the tape and it's turning red."Shane. Slow it down." I say as I see something build inside him. He still swinging.He starts to move in on me, forcing me to back up. "Shane!" I up my tone to snap him out of it as he attacks me.He's moving in more. Throwing out punch after punch.I see a tear roll down his cheek. He's growling now and gritting his teeth. His eyes start to glow blue.I push him back. "Shane!!""Argghh...." He comes back at me.Swinging faster punching at anything now.I toss a pad

    JAYSON I'm desperate. Angry. My legs are on fire but don't fucking care. I've been running for hours. Sniffing the air and the ground. My biggest problem is the entire forest is filled with the scent of rogue. I'm not a tracker. I can't zone in on anything. On the ground, paw prints are everywhere. In no discernible direction and no human tracks what so ever. Which means Sarah is being carried. Or they made her shift. I push forward, looking for anything. After another three hours, I shift. My wolf is tired and hungry. I lean on a tree and slide down to the ground. My knees drawn up and my elbows on my thighs. I'm breathing heavy as my hands run into my hair. Gripping it in desperation. My breaths are coming out as whines as I process the fact that Sarah's gone forever. In the hands of White. Anything could be happening to her. As my frustration builds, I lash out. Screaming and hitting the ground. I kick my leg out and my foot hits something. I look, confused. Tilting my hea

    SARAHI don't know how long we've been running. Shortly after I lost sight of Jayson, I lost consciousness. I don't know who this guy is, but he's got a mean grip. When I come too, I'm hit with a sickening stench right under my nose.It takes me a minute to realize I'm moving. I'm facing the ground and it's whizzing by me.I feel fur under me.As I come back to reality, I see I'm on the back of a rogue. Hog tied around his stomach."Wh..Wha..what?" I panic. Trying to move my hands and feet.The beast I'm on growls and thumps his back. Jostling me. My guess to settle me down. Well fuck that noise.I pull myself up and pull the rope up on his side.The rope pulls his skin and fur and as my legs slip under him, he lost his focus and balance. We both veer off, skidding into the dirt. The rope snaps.It takes a second for me to realize I'm free and I pull the ropes off. Running as fast as I can. Into the forest. I'm crying as I run. I don't know where I'm headed. Just anywhere, but here.J

    JAYSONIt really is amazing what kind of tech you can bring on a mission like this. You think you'd have to sacrifice things like communication to the outside world, but not with the mission unit. We got that covered.With every break, River's been communicating with the leaders and the bases. Getting Intel as we get closer to the rogue packs. Our trackers have them out maybe half day.River's pacing around on a satellite phone. He runs to a laptop. "Show me."He pushes some buttons. He looks at the photos and stands. Rubbing his forehead. He looks to me and waves me over.I jog over to him and skid to a stop at the make shift table where the laptop was sitting.He points to the picture. "This was over a day ago."I scan the sight. Rogue bodies, stripped to the bone. The place looked like a horror show."And this." He clicks another button. "Was ten miles from there."I look at what looks like a deer herd. Gutted. Destroyed. They were barely recognizable. And it wasn't just that. It w
