Crissy’s Point of View“Hello, Grandma.” I start to cry. Tears rolling down my face making my sight blurry.“Oh baby, it’s going to be fine. He was bound to find out sooner or later.” While she says this, she hugs me tightly. Rubbing my back.“I know, but I was supposed to tell him. Now he wants nothing to do with me.” My voice was quavering. The words struggle to leave my mouth.“He needs time. He will forgive you, I know, and I also know you have been having a hard time lately.” She pushes me back slowly placing her hands on my face. Wiping away some of my tears.“And the nightmares are getting worse.” Shaking my head before the tears roll down my face once again.“It will get better my nugget. You just need to keep on taking your medication. Maybe this was a good thing that happened. Maybe now you won’t feel like it’s your fault anymore. Please remember I’m one phone call away, dear.” She gives me a kiss on the forehead. Making me smile a bit.“I know. Thank you, grandma. I love yo
Austin’s Point of ViewI have been staring at the ceiling since waking up. Crissy knows what I am. How will she ever trust me after this? Not to mention the member of the Volatile pack. We still haven’t captured him. We have reset the trap for the past few days. All that we caught were normal birds. Nothing with the Volatile pack symbol. Worrying about Crissy. If that crow will attack her again. Not to mention that if it changes into its human form, he or she might kidnap her.Making my way out of bed. Grabbing my shirt that I wore yesterday. I make my way do the stairs on my way to the door. Walking past Alexander sitting on his chair, passed out. Kicking his chair he was startled and sat up straight.“Do something useful. Start breakfast or something.” I say to Alexander. Making my way to the door.Alexander rubs his head. Trying to wake up. I turn around and stare at him shaking my head before speaking.“When I get back, I want something to eat. Got it?” I stare at him waiting for
Alexander’s Point of ViewTrying to wake up. Rubbing my eyes until I only see little spots. My eyes final in focus. Making my way to my feet walking into the kitchen. Grabbing a glass of water. I lean against the count. Still trying to be completely awake. Checking the time and it was just past twelve. Then realizing that I was in my underwear. I scan around in search of my pants.Noticing something stick out from the side of the fridge. My shoulders almost falling to the ground. Placing my glass on the counter before making my way towards the fridge and realize it is my pants. Lying right next to it.“How of earth did you end up here? I don’t really remember taking you off.” Shaking my head before picking it up and putting it on. “Note to self, never drink so much that you forget you took off your pants.”I make my way to the door. Deciding to go for a late-night walk, I always try to enjoy the late-night air. The sky is clear, and the stars are filling the whole sky. I made my way t
Austin’s Point of ViewAfter the phone call from Alexander. Staring at my phone then deciding to try and phone my father to see if this Leo guy was telling the truth. I haven’t spoken to my father since we came here. I might be the Alpha, but my father and I haven’t seen eye to eye lately. I dial my father’s number. Waiting patiently for him to answer. Tapping my foot, anxiously. Then someone answers.“Father? I knew that idiot was lying…” I was cut off midsentence, my mouth hanging open.“Well. Well. Well. Isn’t it the famous Austin? The alpha I was looking for.” A voice I didn’t know came through the phone.“Who is this?” I growl. My grip on my phone got tighter.“Ouch, that hurts my feelings.” The voice responds.“I assume you are Zack. Your little pet bird chirped a little too much. Where is my father?” I ask, pacing back and forth.“You assume correctly. Your father is visiting me for a while. He hasn’t been an excellent guest lately.” Zack replies. “Maybe I should teach him some
Crissy’s Point of ViewI rush to my house; I went inside and shut the door. What on earth was I about to do? Shit, I can’t believe I was about to sleep with all three of them. The idea seemed fantastic at that moment, but if it happened, I would want to be completely sober when I do it. I walked away from the door and made my way to the kitchen.I grab my phone and text my grandma to find out how Thomas was doing. She responded quickly, and her text said, “He is doing great. He is still trying to process everything. He will come around soon. Love you, dear.” Thomas, I wish I had told you earlier that you had to find everything alone. You must have been scared. I would have reacted the same way as you. Unfortunately, I can’t change what happened. I hope you will forgive me soon.I turn on the kettle and found a spot on the couch. I was starting to sober up, and my head begins to hurt. The kettle stops boiling, and I got up, made some coffee, and then went straight to bed. While lying i
Michael’s Point of ViewUsually, when I wake up, I need to check the time. Opening my eyes I pick up my phone. Looking at the time, it was just past ten. Shit! I jump out of bed and rush to the shower. Turning on the hot water, waiting for the steam to form. Climbing in, feeling the hot water flow over me. Wetting my hair, I grab the shampoo bottle and squirt a small amount into my hand. Massaging my scalp. Taking my scrunchy and quickly scrubbing every inch of my body.Rinsing off. I turn off the water and grab a towel. Wrapping it around my hips. After my shower, I quickly get dressed and make my way downstairs. Austin was sitting on the couch, drinking his whiskey. Rolling my eyes.“Really? It’s ten thirty and you’re already drinking.” Austin shrugs. Ignoring my comment. “Anyway, have you checked on Leo this morning,” I say in a rush. Grabbing a cup and pouring myself coffee from our auto coffee maker.“Yes, calm down.” Austin looks at me. Confused. “Shit man, it looks like you saw
Crissy’s Point of ViewI woke up staring at the ceiling. My heart breaks every moment Thomas isn't here. Getting dressed wasn't on my agenda today. After all, it is a school holiday. I made my way downstairs while opening the cabinet. I remembered that my favourite mug was broken. I open the drawer I throw it in to the drawer to fix it but never got to it. Taking the broken pieces, then I search for superglue. Finding it in bottom drawer. Grabbing everything and make my way outside and start sticking them back together.The memory of Thomas giving it to me plays through my mind. A smile appears on my face, along with tears. How could I let this happen to us? Why didn't I tell you before you got older? I should never have kept that secret from you. I took a big breath to stop the tears from falling. The idea of you never wanting to come back to me is a thought I never want to become a reality.Starting with the biggest piece. Searching piece for piece that fits. Slowly placing superglu
Austin’s Point of View“Okay, so tomorrow is the day we fuck up, Zack,” I growl. Making my way towards the bar, taking a seat behind the counter. Then grab a bottle of whiskey. “Alexander, make not that we need to get more whiskey.“Noted. I will get some. That’s if we come back alive.” Alexander says, walking towards me. Grabbing a seat on the other side of the bar.“Austin, you haven’t elaborated on your plan,” Michael says. Staring at me with his arms folded. Tapping his foot on the wooden floor. “And Austin have you thought about how they got through the gates to be able to kidnap dad. The other thing is, do we even know how many of our pack we have left?” Making his way towards me finding a seat across from me.“Well, my dear wonderful brother. It’s plain and simple. We go to Brentwood. Gather our pack the amount that we have left. Having no idea how many survived. The only person that was able to give through that type of information was dad. The other wolves are trained to keep
Austin's Point of View Standing in my room. Watching the men in my room get my suit and everything ready. Anger starts to take over. Wanting Crissy all to myself. Not being able to makes me furious. I could have had her all to myself, but some people forgot to inform me that it was my coronation today. Making my way to my feet. I make my way to the bathroom to take a shower. Closing the door, I stood frozen. Unable to move. My heart racing. Wondering what they had picked out for Crissy to wear. Knowing I would rip it off anyway when we are alone. Finally getting myself to move again. I open the water for it to heat up. Climbing into the shower. Wanting to smell clean and fresh when standing in front of my pack. With my father not here anymore. Nor my mother. It is a heavy pill to swallow. "Sir? Are you almost finished." One of my men asks. "I will be right out. Give me one minute." I reply, shutting off the water and climbing out the shower. Grabbing a towel and wrapping it around
Crissy's Point of View We arrive at our room. I wanted him so badly. Austin and I start to kiss each other passionately. I first want to freshen up. "I just want to take a quick shower. With everything that went on. I don't want our alone time to be when I stink." I let out a soft giggle. Austin stares at me with a smirk on his face."Of course. I might join you." He says while giving me a wink.Making my way into the bathroom. Turning on the shower, Austin joins me. He walks up behind me. Grapping me around my waist. He starts kissing my neck. Making me let out a soft moan. I turn myself around, looking him in his eyes. Placing my hands on his face. I try finding the words to say, but nothing wants to come out. "You don't need to say anything. I know exactly what you want to say. I love you too." Austin says before giving me a kiss. He picks me up, and I throw my legs around his hips. "I love you." I whisper. Finally, the word escapes my mouth. Austin gives me a smile. He carrie
Austin’s Point of View I keep stuffing my face with food to ignore the fact that Crissy doesn’t want to talk to me. Crissy, what did I do to deserve this. Is it what Zack had told you. About his mate. I can’t prove to you what happened that day. But I can try and prove it to you. I look towards Crissy. Seeing her not eating makes me worry about her even more. I stood us and grabbed my glass with a fork. Tapping the glass with the fork to get everyone’s attention. “Good day everyone. Welcome.” I say. “Afternoon.” The dining room echoes. “Thank you all for joining the funeral. We lost brave soldiers and a fantastic leader. They will forever be missed and forever in our hearts.” “Hear. Hear.” Michael says while standing up and holding his glass in the air. “Hear! Hear!” everyone in the room repeated. Everyone sits back down. Including me and we enjoy our meal further. I catch a glimpse of Crissy. My heart racing. The thought of her not being open with me about what is bothering
Crissy’s Point of View While on our way to Brentwood, we sit in the car while Austin drives. At this moment, I felt uncomfortable and uneasy. The words that Zack told me about how Austin. Austin killing his mate still haunts me. I stare out the window, not wanting to cause a scene, especially not in front of my brother. Maybe I should ask Michael or Alexander. They could perhaps shine some light on things. Can I really trust Austin, or will he also kill me when he gets tired? “Crissy.” Austin breaks the silence “Yeah,” I respond “I haven’t asked yet. Are you sure you're okay? You seem a bit off. Is it the pain?” he asked. “Yeah, no. I'm fine, just a bit in pain from the kicking and so on.” I give a fake smile, then stare out of the window “There are some pain meds in the center console.” “I'm good, thanks. I think I'll manage.” I let out a nervous giggle “Looks like Thomas is tired. He has been sleeping the whole trip.” “Yeah.” I look at Thomas in the back seat “Are you sure
Crissy’s Point of View“Thomas. you have no idea how happy I am to see you.” I give him a hug.“Come on don't be so cheesy.” Thomas starts giggling.“But to the important part. do you forgive me?” I ask.“Yeah. Of course, I do. I now understand why you did all of this. Why you hid it from me, and you were trying to protect me.” he says.“Thank you. I promise I will never keep secrets from you again.” I gave him another hug. “you're not a child anymore. You're old enough to understand what's happening in life, and I can't stop you from growing up.”“Thank you, Crissy, and know you are always, always going to be my big sister. I can't be mad at you forever.” Thomas makes his way to the kitchen. “you're in the mood for some coffee?”“Yes, please, and then I will tell you everything that happened. While you were grandmas.”Thomas made us some coffee, and we sat down on the couch. I tell him the whole story about Austin. About Zach and How I met Henderson’s father, the truth about them bei
Austin’s Point of View “I never want to see you again,” Crissy says. As soon as those words left Crissy’s mouth, my heart shattered. Zack grabbed me and threw me to the ground. Zack started laughing. “Guess she does believe my story,” Zack says. I throw Zack off me, and we walk in a circle staring at each other. What on earth did he tell you, Crissy? What was the lie he told you to make you hate me? “What did you tell her?” I ask. “Nothing special. Just that you killed Arora.” He says while pouncing at me. I dodge his attack. “What? I didn’t kill her. You did!” I respond. “You and your family made me do it. Then made me leave the pack.” Zack grabs me, throwing me to the ground. “You left on your own! We didn’t force you.” I break free of his grip. “You took her life to prove your loyalty to my family. You are the one who wanted to join our pack because your parents disowned you.” “Well, my parents are dead now. When I tried to make amends. We had a wonderful breakfast. Righ
Crissy’s Point of View While Zack pulls me away, I stare at the horrible scene in front of me. The way they jump towards Austin, throwing him to the ground. Austin yelps for help. This is all my fault. The fact that I'm in love with him and I think he is in love with me makes him weak, losing his powers. His father told me that this could happen. How can I let this happen? How I'm going to fix this? I try escaping Zack’s clutches, but he is too strong. I kick, and I tried grabbing the ground to get some leverage. I know that as soon as I free myself, my chances of getting away are slim. Zack’s speed and strength. I am no match for it. I am trying to think of a way to save Austin. to give him back his powers. How would I be able to do that? “Let me go!” I scream “Shut up, you whore!” Zack replies. “All thanks to you, Austin. He has lost all his powers, and because of you, I will be able to kill him. With no sweat.” He throws me against the ground while saying this. “Why are you d
Austin’s Point of View We make our way down the mountain. Just minutes before reaching the other pack, the clouds rolled in the darkness of the rainy weather. Thunder echoing. A raindrop falls on my nose. At this moment, I have never been so scared of what might happen to my pack. In a few seconds, everything can fall apart. Michael makes his way past me attacking one of the wolves from the violent pack. Yelping sounds from all around me of the wolves getting hurt. One by one, they fall to the ground. I as well tackle one of the wolves to the ground. Unfortunately, in this war, you have to kill or be killed. One of the Violet pack wolves’ attacks one of the pups. I rush over, knock him down off his feet, and go for the throat. I helped the little pup up, making sure he was okay. I hear from a distant Michael screaming. I rush over to him, grab the wolf attacking him, and throw him to the ground, ripping open his throat. “Go find Crissy,” Michael orders me. “Are you guys sure you'r
Zack’s Point of View My parents always wanted my sister to be the alpha. She has always been the apple of their eye. Cia is older than me, but I am stronger and more intelligent than her. Before I turned eight teen, I killed my parents because I knew my sister would win the competition and become alpha. I took the opportunity and killed them before any of that could happen. I don’t miss them. I love replaying that memory. I would have killed my sister by now, but she begged me not to. If I don’t kill her, she needs to be my slave. So far, she has held up her part of the deal. “Kai! Bring Crissy to me,” I order Kai. “Yes, sir.” He replies. What if I sleep with her? Leave my scent all over her. Then the Hendersons won’t want her anymore. Or it will piss them off even more. I start to laugh. “Let me go!” Crissy screams. “Calm down, sweetheart. No matter how much you try and break free. You will never succeed in it.” I smile at her. “Fuck you, Zack.” She replies. “Feisty little on
