Levi POVOK maybe going alone wasn’t a good idea. I don’t know what was in the dart but man it has a punch. I have tried linking the others a few times now but I don’t think enough of that crap is out of my system yet. I have been hearing voices in the room next door. Someone is pissed. I don’t know if it's because I’ve found them or the fact that Molly seems to have escaped. By the smell in here, this must be the room they were holding her in. Her crisp apple scent is everywhere. There is another scent with it but I’m not sure what it is. Maybe they had two people in here. Whatever the case I need to get my ass out of here and back to the others. We need to get word to the other search party that we are going to need backup. Maybe we will finally put an end to all this shit once and for all. Shaking the grogginess away I sit up and start scanning my surroundings. No windows one light on the table by the bed and a small table with a couple of chairs in the corner. Not much to work wit
Meg POVWe saw Molly burst out of the woods across from us. At the same time, we all heard Molly frantically tell us through the link that we needed to move. By the time we reached the circle, the woman had kneeled beside Levi and was holding a large blade to his throat. “I would stop where you are if I was you. I would hate for his death to mean nothing.”“Please don’t hurt him,” I shouted.“I would think that you, of all people, would want him gone since he took your rightful place from you.”“I don’t know what you're talking about. He didn’t take anything from me.” I said confused.“No, I guess you wouldn’t understand since you got the higher rank of Beta female. But wouldn't it have been nice to get the position even though you were a female not because you were mated to him.” She said pointing with her free hand at Quinn.“I honestly don’t know what you are talking about. Please just let my brother go unharmed.”“We can sit and talk we will listen to all you have to say but pleas
This is my second book based on some of the characters that were introduced in Twin Moon Curse. It is a stand-alone book but if you enjoyed the first I hope you will enjoy this one just as much. If you haven't read the first I hope you will check it out. Happy Reading. Quinn POV Ten years old “Meg, where are you? Come on we need to hurry up and get back.” I don’t know how I let her talk me into coming out here with her. Today is my first official training with Dad and Uncle Shane. It’s supposed to be the first time that they are going to let me start fighting against their wolves. Well not so much fighting as learning to defend myself. The fighting will come later. It's not going to look good if I'm late, but Meg just had to come out here now. The problem is that it’s been getting harder to say no to her. I mentioned it to Mom one day jokingly. I told her that Meg had been bugging me more about doing things with her and I didn’t know why. When I told Mom about not liking to say no
Quinn POV Fifteen years old Here I am traipsing through the woods looking for Meg, again. At least this time it is a better reason than she just wants to go for a walk. She has been doing that a lot lately, but she stopped asking me to go with her a couple of months ago. This time however it’s part of our tacker training. We have been doing this about twice a year for the last couple of years. Once in late fall, or early winter like now and then again in the late spring or early summer. Dad, Uncle Shane and Mac divide the group of ranked children into two teams. Reed, Levi and Meg make up one. Lucas, April and I make up the other this time, they switch it around each time. One group hides the other tracks them. It comes down to being one extreme game of hide ‘n’ seek. The catch is that if anyone from either team can get close enough to someone from the opposite team and deliver a fake death blow that person is out of the game putting one team at a disadvantage. In all the times that
Meg POVThe next day when I walked into the dining hall for breakfast Quinn was sitting with some of the warriors that he had been training with lately. He usually works with me and April after breakfast on Sundays to help us learn how to defend ourselves against larger males. I get my plate and make my way over the table that April is sitting at. “Morning, you ready to get your ass kicked again today?” I ask her as I set my plate down.“As ready as I am any other time, but Reed, Lucas and Levi will be our trainers today and from now on. With the help of your Dad.” April says popping a piece of fruit into her mouth.I looked up from my plate very confused by her statement. Quinn had been the one who had wanted us to do this training. Why didn’t he want to train us anymore? I looked across the hall to where Quinn was sitting and linked him. “Why are you not training us anymore?”He quickly glances at me and then turns away. “I just can’t. You need someone else to train you.”It almost s
Meg POVFifteen years oldWe have just finished our last bout of tracker training. We had packed up our supplies and Dad was carrying the last of the coolers to the truck. I mind-linked with Mom to let her know that I was going to spend some time out by the stream she asked me to be home in time to help with supper. I walked over to Dad to let him know what I was doing, hugged him and headed off deeper into the forest. I wanted to stay out here and read by the edge of the stream. There is a spot that has a bit of a waterfall. It’s not very tall but it makes a nice calming sound which relaxes me. I started coming out here near the end of last summer when I stopped asking Quinn to go for walks with me. I had already noticed then that his attitude had started to change towards me. I haven't been able to figure out why. It is a nice spot to get away to and not too far from where the wild strawberry patch is. When the time of year is right the breeze will carry the smell of the ripened berr
Quinn POV Fifteen almost sixteen-year-old As we packed up from the training session that we had just finished, I watched Meg mind-link someone, speak with her father, give him a hug and head into the woods. Where the hell is she going? Why are they letting her walk off into the woods alone? What if she gets hurt? Why the hell am I on the verge of panicking? I know she can take care of herself. Even though I have spent a good part of the last eight months trying to stay away from her. I have still watched her while she is training. I can't count the amount of times that I have had to hold myself back from running onto the field ready to pound whoever she was sparing with. I don't like to see her hurt. I know what I have been doing is hurting her. I just don’t know what else to do. She has had April asking why I was doing what I was doing. She had her brother and the twins ask too. I just wasn’t sure what to tell them all. There was no way I was going to try and explain to my sister t
Quinn POVTwo years later“Meg come on everyone is waiting.” I hollered as I walked down the hall towards the movie theatre. This was supposed to be just us tonight, just the group of us from the ranked families. A time to catch up with each other before school starts up again for my last year. We had all been so busy this summer we hadn’t had the time to hang out as much as we normally do, we had hardly even talked. And once school starts up it will get worse. We had even missed the last two tracker training games, but Dad said that they weren't a big deal anymore.The group of us had always been close, even with the age differences. There was that little bit of time when we were younger that the guys and I had decided that we didn’t want to do ‘girlie things’ with Meg and my younger sister April anymore. But that was before we got older and discovered that there was some ‘girlie stuff’ that could be fun just not with these two. That would just be weird. Meg is just a friend and that
