I sit back, finished with my tirade, and listen as they continue their discussion.“We don’t know for a fact that Fiona is the rogue’s target, but it’s a good start. I propose we send a few warriors to No Man’s Land to infiltrate the rogue camps and search for information,” Ethan says, looking to th
Fiona“It was nice to meet you, little Queen,” Alpha Mandra says with a bow. “I will be in contact with you again.”“Really?” I ask, confused. I like the man, but I didn’t think he was the type to become friends with someone like me. It’s a bit strange, but I like it. Having more friends, even if th
“You alright?”Nodding, I smile and answer as honestly as possible, “I am, but I wish my mother were here.”Ethan POVExcluding Alpha Mandra, who I recently learned is Fiona’s Uncle, I send out my physical and digital invitations. Each Alpha in the North, all eight of them, will receive the summons
FionaWhy is everyone staring at me?I glance back at Laxus and Michael, wondering it the stares bother them as much as they’re freaking me out. Is it because we told everyone I’m pregnant?That was an entire week ago, and I haven’t noticed this many stares until today, so what’s the deal?Subtly, I
EthanTwins. Fiona is going to have two babies, and I can’t stop thinking about the little blurry image in my pocket. I want to take it out and look at it again, but I force myself to keep my composure. She’s upstairs resting while I’m down here, alone.“Are you alright, Alpha?”Well, I’m not exactl
Fiona POVTwo weeks of planning flew by, and now, I crane my neck to see the people walking off the plane.“I don’t think I’ve seen anyone so anxious and excited at the same time since Nova last got tasked with planning a surprise party,” Claire giggles, and I mock glare at her.“I haven’t seen my b
Fiona POVThe dress is gorgeous, but something about it just doesn’t fit right.“I don’t know,” I whisper, brushing my fingers down the sparkling bodice. “It just doesn’t feel like the one.”A feeling of disappointment begins to weigh on my shoulders since this is the eighth dress I’ve tried on and
“If you won’t tell me, then I’ll ask someone else,” I mutter, touching the link between me and Ethan.“Ethan, Laxus is really tense. Is something wrong?” He hadn’t sounded like anything was wrong just a bit ago when we talked, but he’s a lot better at hiding his emotions than I am.“There’s a bit o
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,
Ethan POVMy senses return as the darkness fades away, and I groan because my limbs feel heavy, and my head aches. Taking several deep breaths, I blink to clear my vision, confused when I can’t move my arms.Looking around, I find my wrists trapped in heavy chains. I follow the chains to the wall, n
“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
