Sebastian-

“Sorry if I offended you.” Izariah said as she looked a little perplexed in regard to my actions.

“Not at all. I was just moving away so I could turn to face you as I talked.” I hated lying but I also didn’t want to tell her what just happened without me knowing what it was myself. “I should mention that I have never liked that term. It makes us sound as if we are better than everyone else. I guess in a way we are, but it is only because we were forced to be by our parents.”

“That reminds me. I heard you didn’t want to be Alpha. If that is the case, why did you allow Jace to say that you all would step up immediately if need be?”

I studied her for a moment before letting out a long exhale. “You are right, I don’t want to become Alpha, but I also believe that responsibilities outweigh wants and desires. We can want and desire all we want, but we aren’t alone in this world. We have an obligation to others to do what is best for them.”

“I get that. That is part of the rea

    Izariah- After everyone was back and we went through the plan, while tweaking a few things, I only half listened. I couldn’t stop thinking about how Jace, Lex, and even Sebastian said they wanted to be with me. I was surprised about Sebastian. He at least put it in a perspective that made sense. When Jace approached me about it, I was a little hurt by it. With Lex, well, I had fun with him, but I didn’t think of him in any way besides maybe as a brother. I understood that they were doing this because of Braxton, but Braxton was the reason I couldn’t agree with them. When the plan to get Braxton out was laid out and everyone who was needed for the plan to work was contacted, I knew I needed to give them my answer. I wasn’t sure what I was going to say, even though I had been thinking about it this entire time. I didn’t want to hurt their feelings, but I also needed them to understand. They were all very dear to me. Jace was talking about having feelings for me, Lex was more or less

    Izariah-So far, the plan has been working. Currently, I was sitting inside the Limo, along with Eric and one of his human friends. I discovered he also worked for Braxton directly. He wasn’t used as often as Eric, but I learned that his name was Jarod.The club that we hired was currently causing a huge ruckus. Some of the neighbors in the area had already come outside and were complaining, but to my surprise, the people from the club were able to calm them down. Some of the neighbors even joined in on the fun.Now I understood why this club was so popular, they knew how to throw one hell of a party. If it weren’t for trying to get Braxton out, I wouldn’t mind joining in on all the fun as well. I looked out the tinted window of the limo in envy.I tried not to get distracted, but all that there was to do now was to wait. Some of the warriors from Braxton’s house had come out, but his mother hadn’t yet. Until she was out of the house, we couldn’t have the power cut.Pulling out my pho

    Jace-I was still waiting near the house, yet out of sight, for Izariah. I wanted to go in after her, to help her if she needed it. I didn’t know what was going on with me, I was okay with her choosing Braxton. Why did I have this overwhelming need to protect her? It wasn’t like she was mine.Maybe I was just anxious about her freeing my best friend. With each passing minute, I grew more impatient. I knew that if I rushed in, I could cause trouble for everyone. I needed to keep calm because at least Braxton’s mom was outside. If she remained outside, I didn’t have a need to worry.Keeping out of sight, I listened and watched what was going on. Since she started yelling at the guys we hired as a distraction, she has been fuming mad. If she kept going the only thing anyone had to worry about was if she was going to blow out a blood vessel.Even as a child I never liked being around her as she released her anger, but at least I felt that the humans were safe. The last thing she would eve

    Braxton- I was fighting against the effects of the wolfsbane, but thankfully it wasn’t as bad as it was before. If Izariah hadn’t held off exiting the basement when she did, I doubt I would be in any condition to stand on my own, let alone face my mother. It pissed me off that my own mother had done what she did to me. It had nothing to do with Izariah, yet it did at the same time. I wouldn’t allow her or anyone else to harm Izariah, even if it cost me my own life. I knew there wasn’t much I could do, for the simple fact I could sense a lot of humans around. I didn’t know what had transpired, but I had a feeling that it was because of my friends, for the reason humans are involved. Knowing them as I did, I knew they wouldn’t be opposed to using whatever dirty trick they could. I was grateful they were able to release me, but I wish they hadn’t involved the one person I would sacrifice the world for. “I am not choosing anyone. My issue is with you directly. You are my mother and ye

    Izariah- All night and all day, I couldn’t get what happened out of my head. None of it made any sense, no matter how much I tried to justify his actions. When I thought about it, I felt as if I were going to go insane. I kept telling myself that everything would be fine. He fought for me when I kept denying him, so I could do the same. He was probably hurt because of what his mother did, and he was taking it out on me. I could be strong for him and show him that I am by his side. No matter what he must face, I will stand by him. Thinking like that was the only thing that helped me crawl out of bed this morning. I couldn’t let what happened last night defeat me. There was still so much I needed to do with school, and I had a job to attend to as well. I didn’t think I would see Braxton in school today, so I wouldn’t need to worry about the way he was acting last night, until later. Once I was ready for the day, I grabbed my bag and started out the door. Millie was already gone, jus

    Braxton- I didn’t know why I was laughing, but I didn’t know what else to do. I found this entire situation hysterical. Not in the sense that I was finding any of this funny, it was more that I couldn’t believe this was happening to me. I finally found someone I could see myself claiming as a mate and after trying so hard, I finally found out that she is in love with me. For once in my life, couldn’t I be happy? That was asking too much though. Since arriving at school, I had intended on just keeping my distance. My plan had been to watch her from a distance to make sure she was all right. The moment I pulled into the parking lot though, I sensed my mother. I hadn’t expected her to make an appearance so soon. I thought I could have had enough time to figure out a way to get Iza to move on without being so harsh. Now I knew my mother was watching and if I had any hope of getting her to leave Izariah alone, I needed to be as ruthless as I could. This was the hardest thing I have ev

    Braxton- “If you don’t move, I will make you move. I am not in the mood right now.” I spoke calmly, but I made sure they understood I was not above violence. “You think you have the ability to take us all on?” Jace stepped forward, his eyes flickering between his and his wolf. I knew why they were all made, it was because of what they saw between Izariah and me. I should be happy that my friends are willing to stand up for Izariah, which I was. That wasn’t what came out of my mouth though. “You are supposed to be my friends. Why are you getting pissed off at me? Shouldn’t it be up to me whom I like and don’t like as well as when I like them? I wish you all would just back off.” I growled as I tried to shove past them, but it was like they were a brick wall. They shoved me back and then they moved closer to one another. “Haven’t you put her through enough? We didn’t say much when it started because that was just your normal behavior. When things started changing, it was different.

    Izariah- “Thank you again, for accepting my leave of absence on such short notice. I promise I will make up for it when I return.” I yelled over my shoulder at my boss as I picked up my bag to leave. “No problem! I hope things get better for you soon. Give me a call when you are ready to return to work. No rush. Take all the time you need.” My boss hollered from behind the register as he finished closing his drawer for the night. Hanging one strap over my left shoulder, I waved back at him with a forced smile as I made my way to the front door. As much as I would miss this place, I knew I needed to take a little time to collect myself. I called my mom on the way to work, and she heard in my voice that something was wrong. I didn’t tell her what happened, since I didn’t want her to worry. When she requested that I come home for a bit, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. It has been a long time since I have been home, and I knew that it was where I needed to be. After what Bra

    Three Years Later Izariah- “Will you hurry up already? You don’t want to be late to your own graduation!” Rachel, my new best friend and Jace’s mate yelled from the front door of the house that I lived in with Braxton. After we officially moved to the pack, we stayed in the packhouse with his father for a bit. On the day of Braxton’s graduation, which had been two years ago, he surprised me with the keys to our own house. He explained that he hadn’t wanted to live with his father or in a house that had too many bad memories. “I am coming!” I yelled from the bathroom, where I was putting the finishing touches on my hair. As I inspected my reflection, I was reminded of the first day that I met Braxton. That morning I had been running late to class and my old friend and roommate had yelled at me to hurry. I had just barely made it in time to take my finals that day. I guess no matter how many things have changed from then until now, there were still some things that were never goin

    Braxton- When we arrived at the lake, where her childhood best friend died, I wasn’t sure what I could do for her. I could sense she was hurting inside, as she experienced being back here. We were all standing in a group, near the lake, no one saying a word. When she started walking forward, I decided that this was something she was going to need to face on her own. Putting my arms out, I stopped the others from following her. If she looked back then I would join her, but her gaze remained on the center of the lake. “Just wait. If she needs us then we will be there for her, but I think the best thing for her is to support her from back here.” I explained. “Do you think that it will work? What if she is never able to shift?” Jace asked. “Then I will make sure I am always by her side to protect her.” I said with certainty. “Even without a wolf, I believe she is stronger than any of us realize.” Sebastian spoke in a faraway tone that made me glance at him. His eyes were focused on

    Izariah- Taking a deep breath, I gathered my courage as I opened the car door. I barely had time to close the door before I rushed by Gwenna. She wrapped her arms around me and hugged me tightly. “I knew the moment I met you that we had a connection. I never would have suspected it is because you are my sister!” She exclaimed, speaking a little too loud in my ear for my liking. I was a little confused about how she already knew that I was her sister when I hadn’t spoken a word yet. Since I had been looking forward to this moment as well, I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her just as tight. Between her and the Alpha King, she was the one that I had been the most nervous about seeing. Meeting my biological father was scary, but it wasn’t like I needed a new father, as I already had one that I absolutely adored. Having a sister, on the other hand, was something I have always dreamed of. Seeing that she was just as thrilled with the idea, I relaxed. Not wanting to break the mom

    Izariah- “Chill out, I am Millie’s boyfriend.” The man spoke in a tone that indicated that he didn’t care who I was or why I was here. “Don’t lie to me. Tell me who you are, now!” I demanded. With everything that was going on, he was the least of my problems. I have already dealt with enough, so I didn’t have time to deal with a little punk too. He was probably a few years older than me, and I could sense he was an Alpha, which didn’t explain why he was in my room. “I am not lying. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her yourself. She just left to get some ice cream, but she should be back any minute.” He said with a yawn as he leaned back and went back to playing a game on his phone like he had been doing when I entered. Not sure what to do at this moment, I shifted my weight from one foot to the other. He seemed harmless, but I still didn’t believe him. I knew Millie had a crush on Sebastian, so why was this dude claiming to be her boyfriend? Just then Sebastian barged into t

    Izariah- The moment we drove through the gate that surrounded the territory; I was completely speechless. Eric, who had been driving the car, had to slow down to a crawl, as members of the pack surrounded us. It took me a moment to understand that they were all celebrating. “What is going on?” I asked, not sure what the reason was for all of this. “Two things. They are welcoming their future Luna and celebrating that their old Luna is no longer here.” Braxton answered. “Do they know it is me?” I asked. I didn’t need to ask why they were celebrating Tabitha being gone, as I am sure many hadn’t liked her. There were only a select few that knew what I was though. As far as everyone else was concerned, I was still a wolfless Omega that worked with the pack doctor. Granted, no one at the pack had cared or treated me terribly over it. There had been one group of teenage girls that had made a comment about it, but it hadn’t escalated. Braxton had been with me when I heard it and he had

    Izariah- “I will grant you something, but it won’t be to find another mate. If I have learned anything, is that I don’t make mistakes twice. You have shown me that you are undeserving of love, for you don’t know the meaning of love.” As my mother speaks, she walks closer to Tabitha. “I did love them!” Tabitha yells, but my mother is unfazed by her outburst. “The fact that you think that is love, shows me that I can’t allow you to love another soul. It would be wrong of me to torment anyone with the kind of love that you have to offer. No. Instead of that, I will give you something else.” My mother places her fingers against her chin and taps them a few times, appearing to be deep in thought. “What are you going to do? I promise I won’t cause anyone any more trouble if you just let me go.” By now Tabitha looked truly scared. “And what? Allow you to roam free and give you the chance to not repent for your actions? Even if I allow you to go free, you still won’t learn anything.” She

    Braxton- Seeing my father enter the room, I was a little confused about why he was here. My eyes moved to Izariah, who didn’t seem surprised at all. Moving my attention back to him, I hoped that he was here to help and not to make things worse. “My love, what are you doing here?” My mother asked innocently. “Save it. I heard everything just now.” My father growled as he stomped toward her. “You don’t understand, it isn’t like that.” The panic in my mother’s voice revealed that if there was one person in this world, she both loved and feared, it was my father. My earlier assumption that she was in control of their relationship was wrong. Now that I thought about it, it had simply been my father giving in to my mother because of his love for her. I completely understood because I would do the same for Iza. Not that I would have to worry about that, because I doubted there was a single bad cell in her body. It was also apparent that my father hadn’t known about the things my mother

    Izariah- “I was wrong, I won’t do it again. Please give me another chance. If I had known she was the daughter of the Moon Goddess, I wouldn’t have tried to break them up.” Braxton’s mother pleaded with my mother. “Do you honestly believe that I care? It shouldn’t matter who someone is. All that matters is that they love each other. I chose your son for my daughter, not because of who his family is or how much money he came from. I did it because I knew they would be good for each other. If we only based someone’s standing on if they were good enough, then do you think I would allow my daughter to be with someone when his mother is so awful? Despite your beliefs, I don’t think someone’s past will define who they are.” “Then you can understand that I was only doing what I thought was best for my son. I love him and I want him to succeed in life.” Luna Tabitha seemed to have given up pleading with the Moon Goddess, as she met her gaze with unwavering certainty. “Best for him?” My bi

    Izariah- Unfiltered strength flowed through me, not only mine but Braxton’s as well. Had I known that having Braxton mark me would awaken my wolf, I would have let him do it sooner. Not only had I unlocked my Goddess abilities, but I have a wolf. I still had a bit to go before I could fully be who I was meant to be, but right now none of that mattered. I would figure it out in time and once I could let go of my fear of water, I knew I would be able to shift into my wolf. My birth mother had been right, but now I knew it. Full of confidence and brimming with untapped power, I held Braxton’s hand in mine as I stepped around him. The look of shock and then anger that passed over his mother’s face was everything I had hoped for and more. When she came in and assumed that he had marked Gwenna, I couldn’t wait to prove her wrong. No longer did I fear her. Compared to me, she was nothing more than a power-hungry werewolf that couldn’t hurt me or Braxton any longer. Her threats were meani
