Lacey's eyes flew open and she was staring into Scar's. Lacey tried to scream, but Scar held a knife to her throat. "Scream, and I'll kill you and Julien, too," Scar said. Rage filled Lacey's chest as she quickly assessed her surroundings. There was a huge picture window close by, and the IV was still in her arm, but Lacey could easily pull it out. She glanced over at the small sofa in the corner and Julien was gone. He had probably stepped out to get something to eat. But that was okay. Lacey smiled. She wanted Scar to herself.It was payback time.Lacey nodded once and Scar removed her hand, but still held the knife to her throat. "I thought it was time we had a little chat... woman to woman.""Too bad you aren't one." Keeping as still as she could so as not to attract Scar's notice, Lacey started pulling the IV from her hand. Once she was free, Scarlett was hers. The longer she could keep Scarlett talking so she could work it out of her arm, the better. "You're not a good woman, a
The Alpha's Companion Chapter 81: Considerations
A security guard came in along with the nurse, who looked back and forth between them, not quite sure what to do. Lacey assumed that she was still in shock from nearly witnessing a murder."The police are on their way," said the security guard. Then he looked down at the blood pooling through Lacey's hospital gown. "I think you'd better get that looked at, ma'am.""Yes, yes!" The nurse finally came to her senses and led Lacey back to the bed. Then she turned to the guard. "Leave us, please."The guard nodded, concern coloring his face. "I'll be right outside.""My husband will be back in a moment if you'd like to talk to him," Lacey offered, laying back down on the bed.He tipped his hat. "Yes, ma'am." He gave her one last concerned look and then walked out, closing the door behind him. "Could you stitch me back up?" Lacey asked the nurse. "Then I have to go home. I no longer feel safe here."A crease formed between the nurse's eyes. The nametag on her uniform read SAMANTHA. "I'm afra

"Okay, Mrs. Grey, you're cleared to go home." Later that day, Samantha looked at her as if she were crazy for leaving... and that the doctor was crazy for letting her go.Lacey gave her a reassuring smile, sitting on the edge of the bed. "Thank you.""Here are your release papers." Samantha shoved a clipboard in front of her. "Please sign here... and here...." She pointed to different places on the paper. When Lacey was finished, Samantha tore off the bottom copy and handed it to her. Then she tilted her head to the side. "When you get home, make sure you rest. You don't want to open up your staples back up again."Lacey nodded, taken aback by her kindness. "Thank you."Samantha nodded as her lips curled into a smile. "A volunteer will be here to escort you out momentarily."And as if right on cue, a girl came in pushing a wheelchair. "Here you are!" she said, a bit too chipper, the kind of voice one uses with puppies or small children. "Are you ready to go home?""My name is Mrs. Grey
The Alpha's Companion Chapter 83: Julien and Rex
Once they got home, Julien carried Lacey up the stairs and to their suite. She wasn't used to this royal treatment, but she was glad of it now. Although shifters heal quickly, she had just had surgery and wasn't able to walk all the way up the necessary five flights of stairs without tearing her staples. But she would be just fine in a few days."Maybe we should install an elevator," Lacey teased. But then again, she thought about Madame Pomeroy and thought it may be a good idea to have an elevator for visitors, although the woman could easily walk up and down the stairs more than she let on.Julien grinned, raising an eyebrow. "What? And rob me of the chance to carry you? I think not."Lacey laughed. "You can still carry me when you like. I'd never object to that.""Good." Julien grinned. "Because I plan to be doing it for a long time to come.""You're spoiling me." Although she wasn't about to object. "That's the whole idea."Lacey couldn't help but think of how far they had come si
The Alpha's Companion Chapter 84: Here's to the Future
Soon, the pizza and bisque arrived. Lacey could have eaten in bed but wanted to come out and sit up for a bit. "Here you go." Julien set the bisque in front of her, and the pizza in the center of the table. Then he slid a piece of pizza on a small plate and set it in front of her. Then he kissed her forehead."I hate for you to have to wait on me hand and foot like this," she said as he sat kitty corner form her. Julien gave her hand a gentle squeeze. "I'm happy to do it." Then he smiled as he motioned toward her food. "Now, eat."Suddenly, Julien's phone rang, and he answered it. "Hello?" Julien sat back against his chair, listening. "Is she alone?" Lacey's head snapped up, her eyes filled with concern. Who was he speaking about?Julien's jaw clenched, and then he nodded. "Keep them in the car. Do not let any of them enter the castle. I'll call you right back." He clicked off the phone without another word and stared at it for a moment.Lacey said nothing, knowing he would tell her
The Alpha's Companion Chapter 85: Mom
"Why?" Lacey asked her mother, her eyes wide in disbelief. "Why what, honey?" Camari reached out to touch her hair, but Lacey pulled away. "Why did you bring Wyatt and Calla with you?" Lacey asked. Wyatt had been her boyfriend before he found his mate, Calla, and had broken her heart. Even though she was happy now, she didn't want the constant reminder either. "I mean, it doesn't bother me the he's here... that they're here... but why?"Camari sat back in her chair. "Well, for one thing, you'll have to talk to them personally about their motives for wanting to leave The Silver Pack." She sighed. "But I can tell you this. Rex is planning to attack The Harvest Moon Pack... your pack... and Thorn is backing him up.""I was afraid of that." Lacey took a long swig of her wine."But there are many of us who don't believe in it... who don't want to attack." Her mother tilted her head sideways, studying Lacey. Then she reached over and gave her hand a gentle squeeze. "I could never condone a
The Alpha's Companion Chapter 86: The Past is Coming Back
Within a few days, Lacey woke feeling much better than she had in days—maybe even weeks—and the wound from her appendectomy was nearly healed. Thank goodness, shifters heal quickly."How are you feeling?" Julien asked, stretched out on the bed, bare chested, with one arm behind his head, looking as sexy as ever.One corner of her lips curled into a smile. "Much better now. Thank you." She pulled some clothes out of the closet and started getting dressed. "I was thinking that I'd start training with the warriors again today.""Well...." Julien sat up, his black hair falling over his shoulders, looking like an ad out of a men's magazine. "I had another idea."Lacey laughed. "I don't think I'm heal up enough for that yet." She kissed the tip of his nose. "Maybe tomorrow."Julien smirked. "Although I'm always up for that...." He took her hand and pulled her onto the bed, flipping her over, his arms forming a protective cage around her. "That's not what I was thinking."She laughed, laying
The Alpha's Companion Chapter 87: The Shadow Pack
Before they left the castle, Julien put Brogan in charge. After all, he was the Beta now. With Brogan on watch, Lacey was sure that the castle would be just fine. He was a skilled warrior and very loyal to Julien, Lacey, and The Harvest Moon Pack. And if there was any trouble, Julien and Lacey could be back in a flash. But she still hated to leave.Although Lacey would have let Tima stay, when her mother left to go to The Shadow Pack, she had taken not only Wyatt and Calla, but Tima, too. Lacey found that she was looking forward to seeing him, but a bit apprehensive about seeing Wyatt. But who knew? Maybe they can finally be friends... especially if they were going to be a part of allied packs.But she was glad that she had told Julien about him. After what she had been through with misunderstandings in the past, she didn't want to take the chance of it happening again."Are you okay?" Julien asked in the limo on the way there.Lacey nodded, but turned her attention back out the window
