As I stand out in the hallway with Keith, I can't help but scoff at his timid behavior. A real man wouldn't act like a coward around his father. Just because he's going on eight years old doesn't mean he can act like a toddler. It may not be fair but he's the perfect outlet to get out my frustrations and anger. After all, he is Dahlia's son too.

When Dahlia announced she was pregnant to the whole pack, everyone naturally congratulated us. Another pup after having our first return was seen as a blessing. Everyone celebrated and Dahlia couldn't be happier. However, we both knew the truth. It wasn't mine and Dahlia was nothing more than a cheating whore.

As Dahlia lets out screams of pain, Keith flinches and shrinks away while I merely get a thrill out of it. Serves her right. Perhaps something will happen this time around too. Or she'll lose this one too! That would be hilarious for sure.

This thought makes me frown. When did I become so twisted and cruel? Where did things

    Ebony ~Dreamland~ As I walk through the familiar forest, I make my way to the lake where I know Skylar is waiting on me. It's strange to be in a teen body in these dreams but it's all worth it just to see and talk to him more. When I wake up, I remember all my time with him. Maybe I can just learn more about what's going on with him! If this is him and not just a dream. As I spot him, I smile. "Skylar!" I call out and make my way over to him. As I get closer to him, I know something is very wrong. "Sky?" I sit down next to him and place a hand on his shoulder. It's so weird to see the handsome version of him acting like this. Skylar is sitting with his knees close to his chest and his hazel eyes so very blank. He jumps when I touch his shoulder but doesn't push it off. "Oh... it's you, Ebony." He sighs softly. "It's been a while... these fantasies are my only out." He mutters and looks out at the lake. "Away from them... 'her' especially..." I frown and tilt my head. What is he t

    Keith My morning starts by being rudely woken up by my evil little sister. As she jumps on the bed and me... mostly me... I wince as my wounds are still sore. "Hurry up!" Gracie orders me like I'm nothing more than a servant and frowns down at me. "No going out today. You must play with Gracie!" I groan and try to get up without pushing her away. Nothing about her is cute and sweet. "I have to train," I say and get out of bed. "I also have work to do so no, I can't play with you at all." It isn't easy being the son of the Alpha after all. "You are friends with everyone so... just play with them already." Gracie pouts and jabs me in the side hard. It takes all I have not to yelp in pain. Reason number a hundred and ten as to why Gracie isn't an angel like everyone believes her to be: she's way too strong for a two-year.. and smart too. "You never listen to Gracie!" Gracie snaps and stomps her foot on the ground. She reminds me of her mother so much. So childish and whiny. Too ba

    Aiden The lovely sight of my mate slaving away at the store graces my gaze as I walk downstairs this morning. Daisy is listening to music so she hums and sways her hips back and forth to the tune while flipping pancakes and frying bacon. While the smell of the food is very pleasant, her frame is more mouthwatering right now. As if feeling my gaze, Daisy turns her head and spots me. She takes out one earbud and smiles. "Good morning, love. You look ravenous!" She giggles softly and motions for me to sit at the bar. "Of course, with that look, it's for more than just the food I'm making." She winks playfully. I let out a growl and sit down. "Don't tempt me, Daisy..." As she laughs, I can't help but smile. She's been going through waves of deep depression these past few years but at least today she looks happy. Daisy shakes her head. "You just need to get your mind out of the gutter. You got your fill last night so just calm down, boy... I wouldn't want to cut you off for a while n

    Samuel Going out for an early morning jog is how I've started every day for the past two years. Losing any baby fat was my top priority once Olivia cleared me. While I'm happy with myself and my body, I'd rather not have everyone about it. It's none of their business what I am physically. I don't want to be looked down on for it either. The only thought that makes me laugh is what Dahlia would have done if she found out. Picturing the shock and horror on her face just makes it all better for me. Of course, because I rejected her immediately, that never happened but still, it's so funny to me. I do have one joy though: my daughter, Rosalina. Her birth was more painful than anything I ever experienced. Even worse than learning what Peter did to me or even the rejection. Victor only grew weaker after losing him... but then grew stronger when Rose was born. All the pain was worth it in the end. The moment I held her, I was in love. "It's like you just gave birth to a copy of yourself!

    Keith Crack! I grit my teeth together hard. I refuse to scream out loud. I refuse to give her the satisfaction of knowing that I'm in pain. I know that's what she wants to hear... especially that demonic sister of mine. Crack! I hold back tears too. Why give them anything at all? No matter how much it hurts, I won't break down. I'm no longer that weak child I was before! Crack! The searing pain makes my vision turn white with every strike. It feels like a new whip too with multiple ends to cause the maximum amount of pain and damage. My back feels so wet too... a bath is going to suck for sure. Crack! She growls in annoyance at my lack of reaction. This is no longer fun for her I'm sure. "Cry, damn it! Beg for forgiveness! What the hell is wrong with you?!" She snarls. Crack! I refuse to make a sound. I hear her throw the whip to the ground and her footsteps walking over to me. I meet her blue eyes with defiance and don't say a word. This unnerves her and I know what's coming nex

    Keith "H-how can big brother say that to Gracie!" Gracie cries out and puts her hands over her face. "Big brother thinks he's so much better than Gracie? Big brother's a meanie!" While her friends see a sad little girl, I see right through her facade. Especially since she's watching me through opened fingers! Those dark crimson eyes sparkling with glee wet with fake tears and a smirk on her face. "... So fake..." I mutter out loud without meaning to. Those crimson eyes widen at first but then gleam happily. I curse myself under my breath and turn away. "If you don't have anything else better to do, then please leave. You'll just get in the way." Grayson looks at me in both surprise and curiosity. I wonder if my bitter thoughts are all over my face right now. At least he isn't head over heel over Gracie. He's the only real one I can count on right now. He doesn't get a chance to say anything as Gracie cuts in. "So mean!" Gracie cries out in a shrill voice that makes me wince. She

    Tristan There aren't many things that piss me off but Keith? He always seems to disappoint me one way or the other. He never shows me respect but what ticks me off the most is how he treats his little sister. How can he be so cold to this perfect angel?! He even told her that she was lesser because she was not my firstborn! How disgusting! As I hold Gracie close, she puffs out her cheeks after finishing her explanation. "Mommy punish big brother for being a big meanie! No dinner for big brother!" She latches onto me and smiles her blue eyes sparkling brightly. "Hug Gracie, Daddy!" I can't help but laugh at her small orders and hug Gracie close. She's so precious that I can hardly contain myself. That's right! That brat doesn't deserve dinner tonight. Perhaps he should go without for a couple of days until he apologizes and means it! Gracie looks over to the hallway and her face pales. A small scream escapes her lips startling me. "Big brother!" Her voice is a small and scared sque

    Ebony ~Dreamland~ The past few nights have been chaotic for me. The forest in my dreams is wild with oddly colored leaves and crazed wildlife. As I run towards the lake, it feels like everything is trying to keep me away but I only push forward even as the chaos blurs my vision. It only stops when I make it to the lake... and tonight is no different. I take a deep breath and look around hugging myself. Skylar hasn't been clear either. I'd see him and yet he's like a ghost in a movie... completely transparent. His voice sounds so far away too but that's not what always catches my attention. Instead, it's the bruises on his handsome face and the bleeding wounds on his back. Skylar is in terrible shape every time but he only wears a smile when he sees me. I want nothing more than to hug him but I always pass right through him. The one thing that I can touch is the blood that drips onto the grass. Even though this is all just a dream, I can still feel the warm and sticky feeling and

    Xander The crisp morning air blows towards us today only adding to the tension running through us. Aiden and Daisy both stand beside me while our battle-ready pack members stand behind us as we stand by the border. The scent of Moonlight Pack's marks is fresh mixed with the rotten stench of rogues. "I guess they didn't heed your warnings." My Beta, Carmen murmurs next to me. "Their arrogance is obvious too. They don't even realize Trent is taking over their pack. They'll be killed or imprisoned without the war." She sighs softly. "How stupid is this pack?" Having grown up together, Carmen has always been in my life. She was born to be my Beta just as her father was born to be his. In Royal Pack, bloodlines matter a great deal and have traditions and history to them. While we don't follow the same monarchy system as our ancestors, we all still have titles to consider. I nod in agreement. "Very stupid indeed. But hey, they reap what they sow." Carmen looks amused but it only lasts

    Aiden As Daisy runs after Peter and Samuel, I frown deeply. What's going on with Peter anyway? He hasn't been himself in so long that it's worried me for ages but with everyone going on with the pack and Skylar's kidnapping, I never got a chance to ask before he left with Zoey for Royal Pack. I clench my fists and look down at my pups. "Can you two stay with Hazel for a little while? I'm going to check on your mother and Uncle Sammy." I pat the tops of their heads. Lily pouts and puffs out her cheeks. "But we finally get to see you again!" She complains. Davin bites his lip but nods in agreement. "You better not take too long!" She says firmly. I smile down at Lily. She reminds me so much of myself at that age. "Of course. I'll be back soon." I look at Hazel. "You don't mind, right?" I ask with a sheepish grin since I didn't run this passed her ahead of time. Hazel is looking out into the woods with narrowed eyes and a tense body. The rage and worry are evident on her face which

    Samuel As we make the long journey to Royal Pack's territory, Rose talks our heads off asking so many questions. "Where are we going? Why are we going? Will I make new friends? Ooh, will I eat yummy foods?!" I chuckle softly at her innocence. She's a sweet little one and I couldn't love her more if I tried. Now close to the end, she tired herself out fast asleep in my arms Surprisingly Davin and Lily are quiet but I think it's more out of spite than anything. Daisy and Aiden must have broken a promise by suddenly running off and leaving the two behind. I hope their parents are prepared for their vengeance! Meanwhile, as I walk closer, the butterflies in my stomach continue to grow. The closer we get, the sooner I'll see Peter again which I don't think I'm ready for. Will lingering feelings surface the moment I see him? Will he see Rose and immediately know she's his biological pup? Hazel touches my arm and smiles up at me. I see her nervousness and fear in her eyes but for a diffe

    Daisy Knowing Hazel is getting targeted now does make me panic more than it should but everyone will be ok. The children and their mothers will be arriving shortly as suggested by Xander for their protection. Among them are Samuel, Hazel, and little Rosalina... and of course, my little pups will be here soon as well. Too bad my excitement is overshadowed by anxiety. Aiden stands next to me and wraps his arm around my waist. "Everything will be ok, love." He kisses the top of my head. "We won't lose and we'll protect Hazel. I doubt Samuel will let anything happen to her." I hear a snort coming from behind us and look back to see Peter rolling his eyes and scowling. The arrogant bastard doesn't want to see Samuel happy with his little family. At least Joey knows better now and dropped his ass immediately. "Let's just hope that he will use his head and protect his pup more than anything." He mutters under his breath before meeting my eyes. Aiden frowns and looks at his Beta. "Dude...

    Magnus I sit back on the couch and sigh feeling energized and alive. Feeding off energy without having to lift a finger is truly wonderful indeed. Until she's drained completely, as long as she believes she's with me, the mark I left on her will do its job well. I run a hand through my wavy locks of hair and grin gleefully. Everything is falling into place perfectly. I couldn't care less who wins this silly little war Xander announced. He's still that cute pup I watched grow up. He's no stronger than his ancestors were so I'm not worried about myself. What I desire most is the chaos it brings and the test Xander is taking. I wonder if Xander understands what I'm doing... no, I'm giving him too much credit. He believes I betrayed him and am needlessly causing trouble for my amusement. Can't say that it's a wrong assumption since I am enjoying this very much. It's been so long since I've felt so alive. Playing with these werewolves' lives is like a neat game of chess to me.

    Tristian In my crazed state, all I know is that I'm running. Silas is taking the lead as we run through the woods onto territories we aren't welcome. I know where we're going too. Silas is rushing towards our true mate. I can't wait to see her again, to prove myself to her, and to gain her forgiveness. It wasn't my fault... I didn't know what I was doing. Dahlia even admitted to me what she did. "I put something in your drink so that we could have so much fun!" She said in that shrill tone. "I had no idea you'd jump into bed with that mutt because of it!" It was her doing. The lapse in my memory... it wasn't my fault! I keep running my mind racing. How can I tell her? Will it sound like an excuse? No... first I need to give her my information. What Dahlia and that bastard of hers is planning... and the horrors I witnessed. I should have known what Dahlia was like yet I was blind. Then my nose is filled with her scent. I slide to a halt and drink it in. Why did I ever think her s

    Daisy After everyone falls asleep including my loving mate, I slip outside for some alone time. Tomorrow is the day... the day the war finally begins. I've never been a violent person but I want nothing more than to sink my teeth into those who made Skylar the way he is now. I can still see the scars all over his body, the smell of his blood mixed with infection, the fear in his hazel eyes... and the way he looks at me. My pup doesn't see me as his mother yet nor does he see Aiden as his father. For making him lose his memories and abusing him... I'll make them all pay. I clench my fists feeling angry with myself. If only I could have looked for him from the start... but I couldn't shift into my wolf form while I was pregnant. Aiden wouldn't let me look either and had anyone keep an eye on me so that I wouldn't fall into a deep depression. That ended up failing after I gave birth but that was no one's fault. Either way, I blame myself. If I could have searched from the start, then

    Skylar Life here at Royal Pack isn't that bad. No one looks down on me, and best of all, no one hits me. What makes it even better is that I can be with my Ebony for real and enjoy her company. I'm still awkward and unsure about my so-called "real parents," but they aren't mean, either. Learning that I have two little siblings from them makes me even more nervous. Yet, when I heard the news, my heart pounded in my chest as if I were excited. Rather than feeling annoyed or scared like I thought I would, I was happy. I didn't show it, but I truly was. "You'll get your memories back in time," Ebony reassured me days ago after hearing the news and seeing my confusion. "I'll help remind you of good times when we were little! You loved your parents a lot and even begged for a baby sibling to protect." I know Ebony would never lie to me. She's the only one I can completely trust without question. It just feels so surreal to me... I do hope I remember something soon. It will give me even

    Magnus "So you were around when King Xander was just a little pup?" Dahlia asks as I tell my story about how Xander and I know each other. "That's crazy! I didn't realize you were so old... but that does make you even more mysterious and interesting to me." I chuckle softly and shrug. "You prefer older men it seems, little flower. Besides, with everything we've done, it isn't too bad right?" Dahlia is cuddled into me while Gracie sleeps in her arms. The small girl was shocked to learn I was her father all along but she didn't seem too upset. Now that the allure effect on Tristian is gone, Gracie will need someone to give her affection. "So weird... so you made a pact with Royal Pack for so long right? Why did you suddenly break it?" Dahlia asks curiously. I knew she would ask about that. "Was there any special reason?" I smile at her as I've prepared this so far in advance. "I was slowly wasting away and losing my powers. If something didn't change soon, I would have been no us
