“Colt, you should come see this!” Jacob yelled from down the stairs. “Coming.” I said back. Tucking the picture under my arm, I gave this room one last glance before heading down the stairs. “Most of the house is bare. There is evidence someone has been here but nothing much. There is empty toil
“No. I didn’t.” It felt strange but I knew when to call it. Pulling out my phone, I hit Alec’s number. “Yeah?” Alec answered after the first ring. “We found the house but I need Ice to look at it.” There was a loud silence on the other end before some murmuring. “Hello?” Ice’s voice came on th
“I knew that. I mean, why did you send her in there to allow her to see how women were probably tortured and killed? Would you ask me to go in there?” “Fuck no. You will never step food in that house.” I was aware of the double standard that was going on but I couldn’t help it. My sister was not t
“I don’t really know.” We started walking upstairs. Going to the front door, I stood in front of it. “From this point of view, everything looks nice. A flower in the vase over there. Picture on the wall over here. Almost welcoming. The most direct route to the stairs, everything is still looking pre
As soon as my feet hit the floor, it was like a heaviness that filled the air. The more I moved the flashlight around, the more uneasy I started to feel. Exposed wires lined the walls, marking on the wood ceiling were more like witch craft than kid drawings. Boxes were shoved in the corner. There
As soon as I saw him, we made eye contact and…. nothing. No bond snapped into place. It was like everything collapsed around me and it was just Colt and I. except I wasn’t happy, the exact opposite actually. I was completely heartbroken. The man I loved with every fiber of my being was looking at me
“W-what?” I jumped so bad that my hand smacked into the door handle. Dropping everything in them, including the letter. Thankfully, the letter fell on top of everything. “I’m sorry, dear. Did I startle you?” Placing my hand over the letter, I looked behind me. Cassie was standing there, looking
“One man against a whole army? I doubt he would have made it very far. Besides, he had to keep our Penelope safe. Rip never stopped looking for her. Even with Darin betraying him every chance he got. Should focus more on his own son and not my daughter.” Cassie obviously still held some resentment.
Out of the corner of my eyes, I could see our warriors shift in position. My wolf was so angry that I had to stop her from growling at him. However, I wasn’t going to play nice. Giving him a fuck you smile, I took his hand making him think I was accepting it. Instead, I pulled him forward quickly an
“Kristen. From the moment I saw you at your tattoo shop, I knew we were destined to be together. You have proven to test every single ounce of patience I have, tested my ability to keep a level head, stretched my strength to sleep in the hosptial room, and finally rewarded me with the most amazing d
It’s been a few months since a few months since Anthony and Ann died. Adalynn didn’t even seem fazed by the whole thing. She slept just fine but then again, Alec kept her between us in bed. She has yet to sleep in her own crib. Our house and cabin have all been fixed. Alec made a few upgrades but th
“Don’t do it!” Alec growled in my ear. “He’s going to die! Anthony is on top and his claws are inches above his neck. Penny said he would challenge him if needed!” My voice didn’t sound like me as I pleaded for him to understand. “I’m coming back. I’ll give Adalynn to you and help Colt. Don’t get
Colt walked around to the back and Alec and I got in the front. We gave him a minute to make sure he was in position before I went to kick down the door. However, I could hear them inside and it caused me to freeze. “….got it! Damn!” The door handle jiggled before it swung over. Ann’s eyes were lo
Pants? Check. Shirt? Check. Hair pulled back? Check. Underwear? Check. My hands ran over my body to make sure I was fully dressed. “What are you doing?” Alec scared the crap out of me when he walked into the bedroom. My back was turned and I was silently panicking. “Making sure I had everything.
It’s been three fucking long ass fucking days! By this time, Colt and Alec had to go back in for more packs of cigarettes but at this point, I had the entire box in my possession. “JACKPOT!” Colt yelled. I was being forced to eat more eggs when Colt yelled. It startled me so much that the eggs wen
“There wasn’t anything in the Will about an address. Just that they would come visit here.” “Carson.” Colt snapped his fingers. “I bet dad told Carson about it.” I was skeptical but we didn’t have anything to lose. Colt was already on the phone, looking up at his contacts before I even had a cha
By the time I focused on anything, we were still in a car driving. However, this was a leather seat. “Have we not got to the plane yet?” “Ice, we are in Florida.” My jaw dropped as I looked around. It was completely black so it wasn’t like I could see anything to distinguish where we were. Sitti
