When those words left Luca's mouth I am sure my world stopped for a moment. Jackson had been attacked and it didn't sound like it was a simple scratch to the face which that it was life-threatening.
The thought of him dying brought back the same sensation I had when Lex died. I didn't know what to do and, for a second, I almost forgot how to breathe as I tried to absorb the words. I was so happy and now everything was falling apart again.
I was sure the Moon Goddess was doing this on purpose. She was making me suffer for everything I did to Blake. She was trying to make me see that I had the most wonderful mate and I was bitch to push him away like we did when we first met.
But I was terrified. I was dragged to pack like a piece of meat and then I found out that my mate was the son of the man who murder my family. If that wasn't enough, I was told my Alpha could kill me,

JAYSON I would say that Blake's panicked knocking on my door was the reason was I now wide awake but that would be a lie. I haven't slept properly in weeks because, every single time I closed my eyes, my dreams were plagued with memories of the damage I had done. There was the blood of the innocent I had murdered. The faces of the enemies I had tortured before killing them in the most brutal way. There was even the proof that I was the reason for the imminent war which was making its way towards the pack. I was lucky if I managed three hours sleep in a night. I could sleep but I would only wake in a pool of my own sweat. "We're going to the hospital," Blake had said. I knew that I needed to tell him the truth about his parents and that neither of them were really as they seemed. The guilt was eating me alive now and all I wanted was to tell him the truth before i
ROGUE Chapter 42
LINK I looked across the table and I wondered how the hell we had gotten to this point. I didn't want another mate. I had a mate and she was murdered. I watched as her life slipped away from her and there was nothing I could do to protect her. I watched as my pup paid the price for James' ignorance and he callously took its life away. I didn't need Jamie trying to replace her and neither did I need her love. I probably sound like some sort of bastard but I had always said if I was given a second chance at love, I would reject them because I didn't want them and they didn't need someone as messed as I am for their mate. I couldn't reject her though. Not knowing that Blake was her brother and Ellie was his mate. The both of them would have me for dinner if they found out I had rejected Jamie without a valid reason and I didn't want to upset either of them - not whe

ELLIE I walked into Jackson's room and I wasn't even surprised to see that Elliot was now sleeping on the bed beside her unconscious mate. Her arm wrapped protectively around her stomach as she shifted a little in her sleep and moved closer to Jackson. Luca was asleep in the corner of the room. He was barely visible from the darkness which had been cast over him and that was probably the best thing for him right now - especially given that I didn't know whether I could even trust him anymore because I didn't know whether he was part of the plot to murder my pups and my mate. Jayson was the only one of the four in the room actually awake. He was sitting on the window ledge which provided you with a beautiful view of the lake at the edge of the territory. There was something calming about that place and I had been there more than a couple of times while I was pregnant - I usually disappe
ROGUE Chapter 44
All my anger and my pain coming out in one hit. Every piece of emotion I had hidden from the world was coming out to a man I was supposed to hate but he was there for me when I needed him and I couldn't afford to push him away - not after the day I've already had and the news I've been given. "I know it doesn't mean much right now but you can trust me El. I know I am an idiot and I know I have made mistakes but I am here to make up for them now. I will be here for as long as you need me and I have no intention of leaving while your family are in danger," Jayson whispered reassuringly. I buried my head into his neck and continued to push all my emotions into the open. I decided to ignore my wolf who was shouting at me because she wanted Blake to calm her down and didn't like that I was in another male's arms. Though her growling was annoying as hell, I didn't let it bother me right now because I needed this and Blake wasn't here to hold m

LUCA I could have shown Ellie and Jayson that I was awake when they walked into the room. I could have moved and given them a sign that I wasn't really asleep and I could everything they had to say but I didn't bother. I knew it was rude to listen in but something was wrong with Ellie after we left the cells. She didn't want to speak to me. She couldn't even look at me. Hell, she threatened me with death, and that was something she had never done before - she should have known that I would never let anything happen to Elliot and her pup. I would rather die myself than see anything happen to Elliot. She was a sweet girl, somewhat shy and cautious around new people, but she was sweet nonetheless and she made people fall in love with her so easily. It was impossible not to love her because she was too lovely for her own good. I can't imagine what I would do if anyth
ROGUE Chapter 46
ELLIE "You need to stop. Seriously," I couldn't stop laughing as Blake poked my sides for the thousandth time. He hadn't stopped touching me since we walked out of Jackson's hospital room and he successfully growled at every single male in the hospital until they bowed their head in submission. Even that made me laugh. Blake was one of the least terrifying people I knew and he didn't have it in him to kill most of the time. He was lovely and the things he did for me only made me fall more in love with him every single day - our bond never seemed to stop growing with each day that actually passed. But the unmated males of the pack were seriously terrified of Blake. They thought he would rip their heads off if they so much as looked at me. Some of them had an unnecessarily active imagination and, through the pack link, I had seen the things they thought would happen to them - from litera

"What did you mean when you told me I should be careful around Luca and Charlotte?" I finally spoke up as I moved my hand over the top of Blake's in an attempt to calm him down."Did I say you couldn't trust Luca? Must have been a slip of the tongue," Jonah said sarcastically. He tried to throw his hands in the air but, since his wrists were chained to the wall, he didn't get very far and only ended up making the welts on his wrists all the more obvious."I am slowly losing my patience with you Jonah," I growled angrily."Slowly? My game isn't what it used to be.""Just answer the damn question. Why the fuck did you tell her to watch out for Luca and Charlotte?" Blake shouted as he moved away from me and took a step closer to Jonah's figure. But Jonah didn't seem in the slightest bit terrified. He simply continued to smirk and flicker his gaze between the two of us. I wanted to know what the hell was going through his mind and wheth
ROGUE Chapter 48
ELLIE Biological sister? Twin? Saved? I was speechless and confused. I had never been told that I had a sister. I had been told that my entire family were dead. That they were attacked when I was a child and I was given to David to keep me safe. Nicole had never even mentioned it when I spoke to her in the hospital. She could have told me and she didn't mention anything. She kept it all to herself and now I was being told by some psycho that Charlotte, the bitch who wanted me dead, was my twin sister. "While Nicole and Kyros kept you out of harm's way, Charlotte was forgotten about. She was left to die. And she blames you," Jonah spoke when I didn't say anything. "B-Blames me? I-I don't understand," I just about managed to say. I really didn't understand what I was being told. Charlotte was blaming me for something I

ROGUE EPILOGUE (Part Two)
MAXWELL I didn't even realize the room had fallen silent, until I looked across at the stage to see my mother was now standing up there with Uncle Luca one side of her and Jackson the other. Michael was at the back with Shantel standing in front on him, his arms wrapped around her waist, with Aurora on his left and his twin sisters, Kailyn and Trinity who were fourteen and looked exactly like their mother to the point that it would have been difficult to tell who the twins were and who Aurora was if she had aged at the same rate as a werewolf, standing on his left — it's a shame that Daniel wasn't here. I did actually miss him and hope that he would make an appearance, but I guess he was either happy with his mate or he was still searching for her. Uncle Link was off to the side of the stage with his arm wrapped around Aunt Jamie, who actually was in her thirties but still had the face of a teenager, while Uncle Link must have been in his late fifties by now but looked just as good
ROGUE EPILOGUE (Part One)
MAXWELL "Ah, Maxwell, my man, you ready for what's about to happen?" Michael grinned as he threw his arm around my shoulder. I am pretty sure he was more excited about tonight then I was, then again, he was about to become Beta in place of my mum's best friend, so I guess he had good reason to be in the mood that he was. "Don't call me my man, I've told you about that before," I chuckled. Despite there being an eight year age gap between Michael and myself, I actually got on better with him than I did with Daniel, because of the amount of time he had spent looking after me when I was younger; I became quite attached to him when I was six and he started looking after us every Saturday night so my parents could have some time alone. Nicole was close to Abby, but that wasn't surprising given that they were practically the same age, but it got to the point where the two of them were inseparable. You would never find one without the o

"This is Blake, my mate, and these are Maxwell and Nicole. I guess I should formally welcome you to Darkness." I pointed between Blake and the twins in turn, still watching her face in an effort to gage her reaction, but there was nothing and I didn't know whether that was a good thing or a bad thing; I would like to think that it's a good thing and that she knows she's got nothing to worry about. I wasn't going to be a problem for her, not when I had Blake, and I didn't think that she was going to be a problem for me either, not when she had Luca and was going to have fun with three kids by the looks of things. "Hi. I'm Daniel and I like Lego. I am daddy's favourite and he loves me more than he loves Michael, that's Michael by the way, and I'm going to be four next month. Daddy told me that I'm going to be a big boy and-" "Daniel. Calm down." Luca chuckled as he picked his son up and held him on his hip. Daniel wrapped his arms around his father's neck, kissing him on the cheek, wh
ROGUE Chapter 80
ELLIE "How do you think they're going to turn out?" I rocked Maxwell in my arms, Blake had a sleeping Nicole in his own and the boys were having a competition to see who could colour without going outside of the lines; it had been a rather peaceful afternoon and I think that had something to do with the fact Luca wasn't around. As much as I loved him, he was bringing the whole mood down with his constant snapping and unnecessary arguments with either myself or one of the boys, and I knew that's because he was such a stubborn pig who didn't want to get what was rightfully his; he wanted to do the right thing and let her go. But, what was the right thing for her, wasn't the right thing for him and it was beginning to show. I didn't mean to interfere, and I sure as hell didn't expect him to shout at me, but someone needed to point the idiot in the right direction otherwise he never would have done anything about his mate. He would h
ROGUE Chapter 79
LUCA I didn't even need to think about where I was going because my feet seemed to take me there on their own, they knew where we were going and they wanted to get their quicker than I was anticipating; it was almost like they were more excited than I was to get what belonged to us. My wolf hadn't stopped dancing around my head and he continued to let out both howls and yips of happiness in the back of my head. It always made things so much easier knowing that you had the support of your wolf, not that I ever doubted his reappearance once we got to finally meet our mate properly, but he had been unnervingly quiet since I decided that I wasn't going to go after the girl who was made for me.I wasn't even going to lie, I was still shocked that I had been given a second chance, I was even more shocked that it had happened as quickly as this; it had barely been a week since I rejected Charlotte and I was already being given another ch
ROGUE Chapter 78
LUCA "So, let me get this straight, you want to break my mate up with her boyfriend by pretending that you've been sleeping with him?" I asked Ellie. I know that she was only trying to help me but I didn't want her to ruin someone else's relationship just for the sake of my own happiness. She was my best friend and I know that she just wanted the best for me but I refused to let her do something she would live to regret in the end, especially when she came to live in the pack with me and Ellie had to face her every single day knowing what she had done. "You got it," Ellie grinned proudly. "Yeah. That's not going to happen," I told her without breaking eye contact and I noticed Blake nodding in agreement with me from the corner of my eye. I knew that he wasn't happy with the plan from the expression which he had been wearing and the look of murder which was in his eye as she spoke about anothe
ROGUE Chapter 77
I was luckier than same people. I may have lost both sets of my parents but I had a mate who loved me unconditionally and would do absolutely anything for me even if he was a jealous pig at times and overreacted whenever someone got a little too close to me. I had a brother who had always been my rock and had helped me through more things as a child than anyone had done. And I had three others who were practically like brothers anyway, I loved them like they were and I didn't want to lose any of them again because of something as stupid as me not wanting to ask for help. I had my children. I finally understood what it was to love something so much that you would kill anyone who dared to hurt them and I really understood what a mother's love was, I understand how a child could become the centre of someone's universe and how everyone could seem insignificant in comparison to your own child. I would die before I let anyone touch the twins again and I would fight
ROGUE Chapter 76
ELLIE I watched out the corner of my eye as Luca left the room. I don't know why Jamie opened her mouth and thought it was acceptable to comment on his skills as a father but she was in the wrong and she didn't have the right to make a comment. Luca did his best for those boys. He tried to put them before himself and, when Charlotte didn't want anything to do with either of them, he was there to make sure they had the love and the care they deserved. He wasn't the perfect father, I don't think there was a thing such as the perfect father, but he wasn't terrible and he didn't deserve the comments which Jamie made. She didn't know what he had been through. She didn't know the fights he had to endure just to make sure those boys never felt like they weren't wanted. She didn't even understand the pain he was in after finding out that they weren't really his children because his mate got he
ROGUE Chapter 75
LUCA I turned to see Michael staring at me with something in his eyes. He wasn't an idiot so he knew there was more to the story than he was being told, I knew I would have to tell him the truth at some point but it could wait a little longer before I did that. I would have to do it with a clear head and when I could explain it to Michael properly. "Are you sure you're alright dad?" Michael asked. "I'll be fine. And I'm sorry if you think I'm dumping you on people all the time. I don't mean to, I just, I don't know how to deal with all of this," I sighed as I ran my hands through my hair. "You're trying your best and I know that. You've always done the best for both me and Daniel, even when mum gave up with the both of us, you were still there and you have always been there. I love you dad and, when I am older, I want to be the same sort of man you are because you're nothing but selfless," Michael shocked me by wrapping h
