Alissa tried to think of questions or anything to say that wouldn't raise suspicion. “Does she know?” Kimberly turned to Michael, he nodded. “Oh good, least he told you we are expecting.” She smiled and rubbed her belly. “Yes, a congratulations to you. I was surprised when he told me.” Alissa gave a false smile, giving a subtle glare to her brother. Kimberly laughed, “Yeah was a surprise for us too, but we're happy aren't we, honey?” she said. Michael started, “Oh, yeah, yeah really happy.” Alissa detected the falseness in his voice. But Kimberly didn't, she beamed at him. They finished their tea as a knock sounded on the door. “That'll be Luca!” Alissa jumped up. “Do you mind?” Kimberly shook her head so Alissa went to the door and led Luca into the sitting room. “Hello, Kimberly is it?” Luca held out his hand for her, she shook it. A flush creeping over her neck. “Oh, lovely to meet you,” her voice was higher than normal, Alissa suspected that she found him attractive. Michae

Alissa picked up her jeans from the floor. She heard a crinkle of paper so fished in the pocket and pulled out the folded paper that had made the noise. “What's that?” Luca's voice came from her bed. “Not sure,” she responded as she crawled back into bed. She unfolded the paper; The pack is in danger, these packs are safe McBaynFarkasa VilkamanStay safe, Alissa.Alissa looked at the paper a few times, Luca had closed his eyes, “What's it say?” he mumbled as Alissa rested her head on his chest. “Oh, nothing, was just a note from Malachi, he thinks the Wuffaman pack is too high and mighty. Said I should go see other packs.” Alissa threw the note from her, watching it float down to the ground next to the bed. Luca let out a little laugh, “They know nothing of this pack.” He pulled Alissa closer to him and Alissa could help a sigh of contentment, he was warm… safe. “I don't think I can keep this a secret for much longer,” Luca muttered into Alissa's hair. He tightened his arms ar

They turned off a country road onto a much narrower road that continuously twisted and turned. They passed one house that looked similar to Alissa's parents house. They turned off the narrow road onto a single track gravel road, it was barely wide enough for their 4X4. They went through a line of bushes then over a wooden bridge. In front of the car was indeed, a castle. Turrets with pointed roofs caused Alissa to crane her neck, hundreds of narrow arched windows dotted the brickwork. Alissa let out a gasp, “It's beautiful!” she muttered. A warm, relaxed smile appeared on his face. “It is a rather impressive home.” A woman was standing looking over a wrought iron balcony, she appeared to watch the car pull up and park next to their cars. Malachi crunched along the gravel to meet Alissa and Luca. The men clasped hands, “I'm so sorry, how's he doing?”“Too early to tell, he's struggling to heal. His wounds are as bad as yesterday.” Malachi’s eyes were ringed, his hair and beard looki

The trio walked around the castle, the sprawling, slightly overgrown grass reaching out to bushes that surrounded the land. She was about to settle down on the grass to watch the two fight but Luca lead her further until there was a bench. As soon as she was sat, he gave her a peck on the lips, moving off to a safe distance away. She crossed her legs. Getting comfy while Luca bounced on the balls of his feet, swinging his arms and throwing a few air punches. Malachi had tied his hair back into a low ponytail and stood, an amused grin on his face as he shook his arms. Neither of them put their arms up in guard. “You're going down, Wuffaman,” Malachi laughed as they both began bouncing from foot to foot. “Pfft, in your dreams, McBayn.” Luca jabbed with his left making Malachi dodge and smack his hand away easily. Malachi used the momentum from his block to swing his right leg round to strike with the top of his foot. Luca ducked effortlessly and used his different level to sweep Malac

Luca needed to go see Marcus, which left Alissa to explore the castle. She started on the ground floor. She found a library that was off the entrance hall, three bathrooms, a sitting room with mismatched sofas, armchairs and floor cushions. In the sitting room was a large cabinet, intrigued she opened it up. On the top two shelves were bottles of scotch, she counted ten different brands of scotch. She was sure Luca could tell her one tasted of cherries while another vanilla; they'd all be the same to her. On the next shelf were fancy bell shaped glasses. She moved further down the corridor, a thinner corridor snaked to her right while the main corridor continued straight ahead, she decided to go right. A door came up off the corridor, she opened it finding stairs leading into darkness, it gave her the creeps so she carried on. Another door came up which she pushed open, an infirmary very similar to theirs stood before her. Luca and Bridget stood around a bed. In the bed was obviousl

Alissa had settled herself between Luca's legs, lying on her back with a book in hand after one of their runs. The pair had finally managed to get their primal wolves under control while at McBayn castle. Letting their wolves run three times a day appeared to be tiring them out enough for their rational minds to be dominant again. Meaning they had time for other activities which Alissa was grateful for as she turned the page of the Anthropology book.Alissa shifted and placed her hand on Luca's thigh, feeling content as he absent mindedly reached down to fiddle with her hair. “WHAT IS THIS!” a bellow from behind them made them both flinch and leap from the sofa. Cain and Emily, their backs straight, stood shoulder to shoulder in the doorway of the sitting room. “Father, I was not expecting you,” Luca's eloquent voice was back, but a quiver had entered the measured words. Cain walked towards Luca and Alissa, leaving Emily at the door. “You should be working!” Cain growled, a slap echo

“I'll make some tea,” Alissa announced, heading to the kitchen. Jack followed, putting water on to boil. Alissa leaned her hands against the kitchen side, stretching her arms which shook slightly. “Why didn't they go straight to the council? That was their plan, holiday, council.” Alissa took a shuddering breath. “I think they wanted to check up on Luca. Cain's unhappy how much he's changed so quickly, but there's nothing he can do about it. Thankfully.” Jack rested his hand between Alissa's shoulder blades. “They'll leave soon,” he reassured before starting to gather mugs, milk and sugar. “It makes me feel like nothings changed, I know it has but...” she trailed off. Jack turned her around and enveloped her in his strong protective arms. She let him, she hadn't hugged her brother in weeks, she had been too caught up with Luca. She enjoyed the difference, a familial connection that the siblings shared. “Can you take the tea in? I just need another minute.” Alissa broke their embrac

The living room was silent. A discomfort and shock around everyone. Alissa couldn’t believe what had happened not ten minutes before. Cain had demonstrated a weakness in Luca… something that and Alpha wasn’t supposed to show. She’d always thought Luca disliked Cain but for it to be like that… in front of everyone? What had he done to Luca when they were alone, when he was a boy. Cain had an evil streak but she never in a million years thought that would extend to Luca. The seconds ticked by, Alissa remembered what had happened earlier in the day, so she focused on him and only him. she pushed in her mind, “Luca.” A hope he’d reply. He didn't.So she tried again, “Luca, can I come see you?” A few more moments of silence stretched in her head. The hope he’d open up dwindled until a broken voice returned with “OK.” Alissa stood, she grabbed a whisky bottle from the cupboard with two glasses and made her way to his study. She slowly opened the door. Luca had drawn the curtains and w
