It shouldn't bother me. It shouldn't irritated me.
But here I am. Sitting with Michael on my porch swing. Secretly irritated.
I know I'm a hypocrite, but how dare he hook up after telling me he wanted to fix things. With a chick barely 18.
"What's wrong?" Michael asks as he plays with my hair.
I shake my head. "Nothing."
He moves his arm from behind me and sits up. "No. Somethings wrong. You were distracted at the bar. Now, you seem off. What's up?"
I play with my coffee cup. "I'm just a little irritated today."
He sighs. "It's because you saw River with another woman, isn't it?"
I furrow my brow. "No."
He tilts his head. "Anna, come on. I know you. You hated seeing him with that girl."
I roll my eyes. "Fine. Yes. It pissed me off me a little."
He furrows his

RIVERI will be honest. I didn't think I'd ever be able to function without Anna by my side, but Emily? Man, that girl is all kinds of sexy. Her scent intoxicates me. She's fun, hilarious, curious, energetic, smart. The feel of her body on mine is just as amazing as Anna's.Everything about Emily intrigues me. I want to do everything with her....and to her, if you know what I mean.She was supposed to be my rebound hook up, but it seems to be turning into something more.At the beach, I didn't plan on bumping into Anna and Michael. I could tell Anna wasn't comfortable with Emily there. I probably didn't help by being all mushy, but I can't help it. Being with Emily brings that out in me. Is it because she's new, different? Is it because I can show her off rather than hide her away? Is it something else? I don't know. I do know that after Anna, there's something

MICHAEL"So you're ok with this." I sit in bed, waiting for Anna to finish up in the bathroom.She finished brushing her teeth, turned out the light and headed to her side. She's fucking adorable in her sleep shorts and tank top."Of course. Why wouldn't I be?" She climbs into bed and I cuddle her on my chest."Oh I don't know. Maybe because a couple of days ago, you couldn't stand him dating other people? Just seems like a brush off. Like you're just bottling or something." I put my hand behind my head."I'm ok Michael. Really. Yeah, it's a bit upsetting, but what can I do. Nothing. So I'm forgetting about it and just concentrating on us. It's over. No more wasting energy on it." She flicked her light off."Ok." I say with apprehension. "As long as you're really ok."She giggles and gives me a kiss. "Really. I

ANNAI was informed on what was happening when I got to the afternoon training session after my kitchen duty. Apparently I'm a yellow shirt for this paintball war game.After being told how we were all going to play this, we take our positions. Infiltrating the woods at our staring point. There's no real base to defend. So the plan is just to push the other side out, taking as many out as we go.We all spread out in smaller teams of two to four. Skulking through the trees quietly.Michael is the leader of our little foursome. He takes point. Davis and myself are in the middle and Franco is covering our rear.We were all moving with stealth through the brush when Michael throws up his hand, stopping us in our tracks and signalling to crouch.I hear twigs snap. I pop up from behind the bush were hiding behind to try to sneak a look.Three green shi

RIVERAlright, so here's the thing.I know making that bet with Anna will get me in a tiny bit of trouble. On one hand, if I lose, I have to deal with whatever Anna comes up with and on the other, if I win, I have to tell my girl I can't hang with her because I'm having to babysit my ex on our Saturday. I probably should have thought it through, but what can I say, I love a challenge and I'll admit, I may not have been thinking with my brain at the time. It doesn't help that Anna's challenge is right up my alley. If she wants me, she'll have to catch me. And I'm here for it.I'm really not sure if Emily will like the thought of me hanging with my ex all day. I know I'd have a big problem with it. I also know the thought of it, must be driving Michael up the wall. Can't say I don't like that.So I should just give Anna the win, for Emily's sake. I can't go breaking her heart just

RIVER After my complete meltdown, Blade took me to his room. I'm still heated. He tosses me a bottle of water and I catch it. "Thanks." "No problem." He mumbles. Grabbing one for himself. He leans on his dresser. "Well, this is fucked up." He takes a drink. I nod. "What do I do, Blade?" I play with the bottle in my hands. He shrugs. "What do want to do?" I grip the shelf I'm leaning on, on either side. My knuckles turning white. "I want to fucking murder him." I grit. "Ok. Besides that." Blade sighs. I shake my head. "I mean. This will break them up for sure, but....." Blade sighs. "Emily." I nod. He tilts his head. "It's just a question of who you want more, isn't it." "Emily's amazing, but Anna's my life, Blade. I can't picture myself without her." "But then th

ANNAWith Michael now gone, I'm leading our little group through the dense trees.The pickings are thin as our teams shrink. There's about fifteen yellows left and twelve greens. All three Alphas are also still in play.We jump on a small path and follow its winding trail around a group of trees.I hear a twig snap and motion to Franco and the couple others with us to take cover and be silent. I peek over the bush. I see a body moving, but there's no color to it. It's an Alpha. I can't see which one.I reach into my ammo pack and pull out the red ball."Shit. You got a ball?" One of the guys whispers.I shush him and tell them all to stay put. I sneak around to see who it is. Then it hits me. The familiar woody scent that makes my body melt. I smirk to myself as I load the ball marked with a B into my gun.Whe

RIVERWe're all sitting at our usual table. It's covered in fresh beer bottles and drinks for Casey and Carmen.I tip my beer back as Carmen scowls at me. Shooting daggers through me.I arch a brow. "You gonna stare at me all night?""You know you're an ass, right?" Carmen snapped.I just blink at her. Zeke pulls her into him. "Babe. I told you. It had to happen.""No it didn't." She eyed me with her brow furrowed. "Emily was good for you. How could you just toss her away like that?"I roll my eyes. "I didn't just toss her away. It's complicated...."'Sure....complicated." She scoffs.Zeke gives her a little shake. "Come on. Don't ruin the night, ok. Why don't you and Casey go dance?"She turns to Zeke. "Gladly." She gives him a kiss. As she passes me, she jabs me. "

ANNAThe next two weeks were grueling. Sparring exams, team events. All to show the Alphas what we learned and how we use it. All for our ranks.Today we're are completing our final tests of strength, stamina and team work. After this training session, the Alphas will present our ranks. To say I'm excited is an understatement. It may have been only months, but I feel like I've changed so much in that time. I don't feel like that rebellious biker chick anymore. For once in my life, I feel like I'm a part of something that's bigger than me. And I'm not talking about just the unit. River and I are much bigger than I thought. Together we can bring down anything. We will hold each other up. I never thought I would ever find someone who completed me like David did, but River does that and so much more. I also don't care what the moon says. Fate or not, I'm not letting him go

ANNA I swallow nervously as I look out on the crowd of thousands of heads staring at. Alpha Andrews is at the podium. He's talking about the victory and Torrents demise. Words of encouragement and celebration filled the air on the training field of the Falcon Ridge Security Unit. River is sitting beside me, in a chair on a stage. His fingers laced with mine. Like he can sense my nervousness, he looks to me and gives my hand a squeeze. He smiles warmly when my eyes meet his. I smile back. The ceremony was to honor those that made our victory over the Dragons possible. "Anna Riker. Can you stand over here please?" Alpha Andrews waves me over to him. I stand, straightening my uniform. I walk over and stand at attention facing him. He's holding a box. "For your unmeasured bravery, emmense courage and strength you had to kill the Alpha of Dragons, we would like to present to you the Medal of Honor. Wear it with pride." He takes the medal out of the box and pins it t

ANNA "River. Where are you taking me?" I giggle as he covers my eyes and leads me through the hallways of the pack house. "Almost there." I can tell he's smiling. We stop. He uncovers my eyes. I'm standing in front two large wooden doors. I look at River confused. "Open them." He says quietly. I grasp the doorknobs and swing the large doors open. I gasp. The dome shaped room is covered in soft white candles. The walls are covered from floor to ceiling in books and artifacts. Paintings of past Alphas grace it's walls. Picture windows show the forest outside. On the floor, is a white fur rug in front of a stone fireplace. Wood crackles and burns while flames dance in it. A beautifully set table for two wait with dinner. We just got back from the ball and River set up this surprise. I suck in a

RIVER "To good times and good mates!" Franco raises his glass to the group of men in the common room of the White Rock packhouse. We all clink our glasses and bottles. Blade walks in. He has his black hair pulled back, wearing a black tux. We're all in tuxes. We decided that since the ball is here in White Rock, we'd all get ready here at the packhouse and go to the ball together. Of course, we men are all waiting on the women. Michael comes in. "Looking good, guys." He's smiling in his own tux. His brown hair tossed but nicely done. I crane my neck to look at him behind me, then turn. Eying him up and down. "You clean up nice." I joke. He smirks. "I have my moments. I'm just glad your dad let me go. Though tomorrow I guess I face the music." His smile fades a bit. I put my hand on his shoulder. "I have

ANNAIt's been three days since the news of the ball being moved to White Rock.With most of the moles in Falcon Ridge Prison, we've been free to plan and talk about the battle.There's been a question about why it's taking so long to get a plan from the higher ups.Well, today, we hear it.They have us all outside. Two thousand strong. Even the new recruits are here. What a time to join the unit. It looks like some are now unsure of their decision. I don't blame them. Barely over two weeks into training and you're thrown to war. If we didn't need the bodies, they could sit this one out.There's a stage and a loud speaker set up. The higher ups are standing on the stage. Alpha Edwards and Alpha Eric are missing. I wonder if they were moles too.Alpha Andrews is addressing us."Good morning.&n

RIVER I kiss Anna bye as we separate for the morning. It's Monday, the place is a buzz of the Blue Moon Ball just a week away. I'm internally freaking out as I walk past all the happy faces. The few that know what's going on, shoot me looks as they pass. I cruze through the halls, heading to the trainers office to pick up my week's itinerary, when Zeke rounds the corner almost knocking me on my ass. He looks panicked. I stand. Pretending to look confused, though I know, he's most likely heard about the take down that's already started. "Hey, man." I smile. This time it's almost a smile filled with satisfaction to see him so scared. "What's up?" He looks around. "Uh, nothing. I...uh...have to go." He pushes past me and I grab his arm. "Why the hurry? What's going on?" I stare him down. He looks at my hand on his arm and shrugs it off.

MICHAEL"What time is it?" I send out a mindlink.I'm pacing back and forth across a dark alley way. The same alley way, Adrian threatened Anna in.I run my fingers through my hair with one hand while nervously shaking out the other as I walk.Anna answers. She's up the street, in an alley."It's only a few minutes since the last time you asked, Michael."River jumps in. He's in an alley across the street."Mike, stop fucking pacing."I shake my head."He's late. I don't like it. This doesn't feel right..."Anna links again."Michael relax.""Relax." I chuckle to myself. "The guys a raging lunatic and they want me to relax."River links."You didn't have a problem with him when you sold us out?""River!!" Anna scolds."That was different." I link"How? How was it different?" Ri

RIVER The shitshow of the last weekend has me on edge. Everyone's suspect. I'm trying so hard to hide it, but as I walk through the halls of the dorms, I can't help but question everyone I pass. Everyone's Dragon. I have to get it together. It doesn't help that I'm terrified that Anna has to be out of my sight for even a minute. My wolf hates the idea. He's been scrambling around in his cage since I dropped her off at her door. These next few weeks are going to be torture. Especially, where Zeke's involved. I just can't believe it. Zeke and me are best friends. We practically grew up together. I thought I knew everything about the guy. Turns out he's a fucking Dragon or at least a sell out. How can I be normal? How can I not lose my shit when he's around Anna? Throwing her that fake ass smile.

MICHAELI'm sweating fucking bullets. My hands are clammy. My mouth is dry.I can hear the voices inside. One's River's and one is deep, low, and downright scary. They're arguing about me.From the sounds of it, Alpha Blake wants to kill me right now. I don't blame him. If I wasn't such a coward, I probably would have done it myself. I'm the worst possible monster the shifter world could ever have. I sentenced my own people to death just to get laid. What kind if sick fuck does that? Me, that's who.I just hope I'll get the chance to make it right before they kill me. I need to make this right. Not for me. I'm not trying to clear my conscience, but for my people. For Anna and River. I need to save them before it's too late.As I'm led into the office, I'm met with cold, dark eyes. The guy looks like River, but he's fucking m

ANNAI run into the packhouse. Shaken, breathless"River!" I yell as I run up the stairs."River!!" I yell again. He pops out of the bedroom door. I skid to a stop. My eyes are full of fear. My breathing is fast.His face is full of confusion and concern. "Anna, what's wrong?""It's Michael. He's in trouble." I grab his arm.River ran his fingers through his hair. "Damn it, Anna. Did you go see him after I explicitly told you not to?"I shook my head. Swallowing trying to calm my breathing. "No. He came to me.""What?!" River's eyes changed to rage. "Did he hurt you? What did he do, Anna?!" He grabbed my arms, looking me over."No! River, he didn't touch me. Will you just listen?!" I shrugged his arms off.I told him everything Michael told me."He was t
