So, after watching two movies and planning out our infiltration of my dad’s house, Isla drives us to the house and uses my keys to let us in. If anyone, including Jack, comes, I’ll just keep searching. No one has the right to keep me from finding my mother’s will. Isla starts searching through m
Ethan “Just hurry,” my wolf urges as I roll my suitcase into the house. Silence greets me, since the staff has the week off, and my wolf paces in my subconscious. He’s been on edge all day, which has also put me on edge. Flying with an anxious wolf in your head is annoying but add the odd exciteme
Her pointy fingernail digs into my shoulder as she pokes me in a weird, pathetic display of dominance. If she hadn’t already said all of this to me already, I would be angrier. However, I promised myself I wouldn’t listen to her, so I take my seat again and do my best to ignore the witch as she hove
Fiona Ethan steps closer, his eyes softening and a frown pulling at his lips. “I was dealing with confidential business that I don’t share with anyone except family and the select few people close to me,” he tells me. Doubt creeps in like a spider crawling up my spine and over my shoulder. Why
“Are you okay, now, though?” He asks, gently taking my injured wrist and changing the subject. The change in his mood is starting to hurt my head, and I wish he would just pick one side and stick with it. Choosing to fight that battle at another time, I focus on my wrist. “The doctor told me the
Fiona Guilt pools in my chest, making it tighten. It was wrong. I know it was, but I still did it. I’d been mad at Ethan for doing exactly what I just did to him. “Did you use me to get at your husband?” He asks again, his tone hard and relentless. It demands the truth and nothing but that, show
Fiona “Well, I’m calling to let you know you passed the job interview with flying colors, and I would love for you to join my company,” he says. I bite my bottom lip, cringing. With everything going on, I’d forgotten to call him and let him know I already got a job. “I’d love for you to come t
Fiona Sighing, I take a seat at the furthest table from the door, which isn’t far in the small staff room. No one else is in the room, and when I look at my phone, I realize it’s because lunch is technically still an hour away. At least I’ll have the quiet and won’t have to worry about anyone bo
However, if Fiona does happen to be in one of the two packs the scouts mentioned, we’ll be able to get in and get out without alerting them. I don’t want to lose this chance to search for Fiona. It could be my only chance to do so without violence.“Which means I need us to keep a lock on our anger,

“Don’t presume you can make demands here, little girl. Now, eat your breakfast like a good prisoner.”The edge in his tone freezes me to the spot, even when he leans forward, snaps another picture, and then unties my hands. I’m too scared to move. I can only watch him leave me behind, closing the do
Fiona POVA clicking sound from somewhere near me has me stirring, but the flash is what brings me fully out of my sleep. The pain in the back of my head is a dull throb, but it grows as I open my eyes just when another flash hits.What is that?My body screams in protest when I sit up and look arou
Ethan POVShoving my father to the ground in front of the pack house, I growl at him. He thrashes, still thinking he can get away even as I grab him by the back of his neck.“If you don’t answer me, then you are no longer welcome in this pack.”My mother gasps from behind me, “Ethan, you can’t banis
Ethan POV“Your father is freaking out,” Ryan says through our mind link.“Freaking out?” I ask as I shift back to my human form. Michael and Robert bow their wolf heads and lead the Gammas back to their barracks. “What does that mean? What’s he doing?”“He’s making a mess of the pack house’s common
Ethan POVTaking a deep breath, I push the door open and step out into my front yard. Fiona has been missing for two hours, and with each passing second, I feel my chest grow tighter. She’s already been gone too long, making me and Zev both angry and anxious to the point of shaking.I shake off the
Fiona POVPain.Stupid, throbbing, aching pain screams in the back of my head as I feel myself coming out of a heavy, groggy sleep.What the heck happened?Blinking, I force my eyes open and find myself still covered in darkness. Though, it’s not pitch black. There is a bit of sunlight coming into t
It seems like everything is too quiet.“Alpha, there have been rogues spotted near the Southern borders,” Ryan mind links.“Send a group of guards. I’m on my way.”Racing outside, I shift and charge toward the southern border. There’s not too much to the south of us, but I won’t let the rogues hurt
