She has been badly beaten to the point where even Finley can't stand to look at her injuries as it makes him angry. His sister is usually upbeat and has the energy for the both of them.

"It's going to be okay. I trust him you can trust him too" Finley tells her.

"He's my mate. He's going to reject me and beat me just like Dylan did" She says while turning back to the window. She finds comfort in the outside world that's now passing by in a blur. They've been on the road for 3 and a half hours now and she's no closer to feeling safer than the last time Finn told her he's a good person.

"What do you mean Es" Fin says to her holding her hand.

"Yesterday. I found out that Dylan was my mate but just before he rejected me and just before you came home he beat me. He spat at me, he

    Jaxon's POV"Alpha..." she says while pulling away. I'm not mad at her. I understand."What's wrong Esme" I ask curiously."I'm so sorry Alpha. I didn't mean to do that"I smile back at her and I push my luck by pulling her closer to me and giving her a hug. She's stiff at first. I actually don't think she's ever done this before. "I don't want you to feel the need to apologise to me okay. Don't worry about how I'd react or anything because it's nice to feel like you're happy to be around me. I'm one step closer to you opening up a little bit more" I tell her with certainty in my eyes. I can't see it but I know it I can feel it.I let go of her so she knows that she doesn't need to do anything she doesn't want. She pulls away and she's sitting back on the floor. I need to know what she's on the floor instead of the bed."Esme why are you sitting on the floor instead of the bed?" I come across as nosey but I'm just curious."Comfier for me I guess" she says while looking away.We've b

I believe Alpha Jaxon told them not to approach me until I feel alright to be around so many people.My mind wonders to my sister. I haven't heard her scream yet and she was okay with that lady earlier.What's her name...I can't for the life f me remember her name. I'll make a mental note to ask Jaxon when I see him next which will probably be tomorrow."Excuse me""Yes. Can I help you?" A middle aged woman calls back out to me"My sister. I'm just wondering if I can get a sandwich to take up to her please""Of course dear. Give me a minute and I'll bring it out to you"Once she's given me Esme's food I make my way back upstairs and head towards her room. She hasn't left her room all day so I can only assume that she's still sat in here. But when I open my door I'm not expecting what's in front of me.There laying on the bed in the arms of her mate is my sister fast asleep.

I want to see what it's like here."Are you ready Esme?" Fin asks me while knocking on my door."Yeah Come on in" I had just finished getting dressed when I heard his voice, I'm wearing black Joggers and a long grey top with roses on the front of it with my trainers on. Alpha Jaxon got rid of our clothes and shoes that we came with as he didn't want us to feel like we had to wear them and not accept what he gave us. He's been spending a lot of time with me over the last week and I am starting to feel a better connection to him now. All of my bruises are almost gone and the split lip has started healing as well and I have noticed Alana wanting to talk more now she's got some strength so I take that as a bonus."You look good" Fin says.

And Finley's doing good with training""He sure is. I think he uses training as an excuse to use all his pent up anger and emotions he's had to hold back which makes it difficult because he hasn't shifted yet and he's got a great deal of strength on him""He will learn to manage it all better. You boys are doing good for them. I'm proud of you and it's also nice to see you not so serious"While talking to my mom I hear Esme call me a jackass for having her go downstairs.'I'm not a jackass. And my ass is fine Thankyou' and I'm instantly laughing when I hear her coughing and laughing in amusement."What happened there?" My mom asks while smiling at me." I just got called a jackass.

    Kai's POVWhen I landed in LAX, I went straight for the car I had left there the day before. I should have gone straight home, but I decided to phone my Mom and see what I should do."Hi Baby, how did the deal go yesterday?"My mom is everything to us all. She may have stepped down from her Luna duties, but everyone still goes to her when they need something. I planned to not mention any of this until I got home, but I'm questioning whether or not I should go and see Millie.A fitting name for a Luna. It has a ring to it. I think to myself. I don't want to get my hopes up but I certainly don't want to waste another moment not meeting her."It went to shit ma. The Alpha has no clue what to do but that's not why I'm calling. I'm back in LA. Just about to leave the Airport actually and I need your advice" I say as I'm actually still sitting in the car park not moving. I need to know what to do.

It was really busy since it was the exact time most of the gates were opening and closing so I didn't manage to catch her scent for long but right now as I drive up the gates driveway to Midnight pack I can smell her scent once again.Pulling my car up as close as I can I step up to the door and knock.Patiently waiting for someone to open it.A little older woman opens the door and pulls me inside."Alpha...?"

Most people fear me or they avoid eye contact but she's looking directly at me."Sorry, I'm sorry my bad love, I'm Magda, I work here and I'm instructed to have the Alpha's sent to their quarters""Sorry, hello Magda, it's Alpha Rhodes""Mr Rhodes.

    Kai's POVIt's usual business as always. I run a pack of 640 and a chain of hotels and restaurants all across the US so I haven't gotten much sleep. My sleeping schedule is lost on me these days and having the added stress is...shit. So far this last month has exhausted me and the last thing I want to be doing is branding a treaty with a pack that shows nothing to its name. Its value of commitment and leadership is meaningless if the Alpha prefers to play nasty instead of helping their own people achieve goals and respect boundaries. I've been in meetings all week and the last thing I want to do is to be at River Crafts Pack discussing more business with them."Mr Rhodes?""Yes? Sorry, I'm running low at the moment. What did you say?" I ask Alpha Kade."I was asking if you had thought more on the treaty. We've been good connections to each other packs for decades now and we have yet to form any sort of alliance"Meet Alpha Kade. Alpha Kade is one of the most stubborn yet not needed Al

I spent a lot of my time helping some of the children with their work, or in the woods shifting and running off my energy and a lot more times in bed with my husband when the children are napping or with the day-care staff.The smell of cinnamon and sugar hangs heavy in the air, a familiar comfort that tells me it's Saturday morning and that Robyn has been baking once again. Jaxon, is in the kitchen arguing with his mother about the batter and what he can and cannot have which I always find funny. He’s a sight to behold, his messy hair, the way his shirt rides up as he bends over in to the fridge, the faint dusting of flour on his body from when Robyn swatted him away. He’s a mess, but he’s my mess is what I always say.Two years. Two years since the world turned upside down, two years since we welcomed Lola into our chaotic, beautiful fami
