VIOLET’S POVI couldn’t deny that life was finally good again. But even that, I knew it could be snatched away from me like the last time. I loved the company of my mates, but everything was still scary.How long has it even been since the whole incident with Laura?It was good, overwhelming even to be accepted by the Red Dawn’s council. I could feel the pride that radiated off my mates that day.And as much as I enjoyed the attention from every pack member who came out to celebrate me, I was still on edge. They marveled at my strength and it made me wonder what my mates had told them that day. And even when I questioned them about it, I was left with words like, “we didn’t tell them anything that wasn’t true sweetheart.” They would say to me, like that give me the answer I needed or satisfied my curiosity.I had been informed that I needed to prepare for the Luna ceremony and that scared the shit out of me the day that I found out.I don’t know how to be a Luna. I remember thinking t
AUTHOR’S POVShe was gone into the night, away from all that she knew now in search of a truth relating to her father. What was she going to find? What if it was a trap? She knew it was, but she had to go regardless because there was a part of her that insisted that her father was truly alive and she couldn’t wait to see him and even rescue him.“Thank God, I’ve been training for a while.” She told herself. This time she was going to have to rely on her set of skills. She had no one else with her, not even Tracy whom she knew would have gone anywhere with her. And definitely not her mates who would not even have allowed her leave the castle without some type of protection or even at all. The letter said to come alone. She reminded herself a few times when Aria insisted they turn back and inform someone about her leaving.“We need back up Violet, we cannot go to the unknown without any kind of knowledge. Please turn the car around.” Violet didn’t listen to Aria’s pleas. She couldn’t af
VIOLET’S POVThe closer I got to my destination, the faster my heart raced in my chest, almost hurting my ribcage. I didn’t know what to expect, and I didn’t know if this trap Aurora had set for me was a simple – she was alone type of trap or if she had a few men with her – one I could escape from.But I sure knew that I had a lot of questions for her, for my father if he really was alive and for the Rogue King who hired Aurora. I needed to understand fully why my family had become his target all these years.I pulled the car into the hotel’s parking lot and stepped out of it. It looked completely deserted, entirely different from the way it was the last time we were here. What the hell happened here? I asked myself, but I couldn’t possibly have the answer.I pushed the door open after taking in a deep breath and I stepped inside. The reception area and everywhere else looked just about the same as it did but only emptier with no sign of life around.I didn’t know where Aurora could b
VIOLET’S POVI took Aurora’s words to heart. Don’t confront the Rogue King, got it. I stepped into the room once she pushed the door open, shutting it right back without being in the room, she did.The room was dark, and my eyes squinted in search of the said Rogue King. And somehow the smell became worse in this side of his castle. He’s really not joking with his title, is he? Rogue King, just has to smell the worst.I knew he was in this room, I could feel his stare on me, almost like he was ripping my clothes with his eyes and that almost had me gagging in disgust. All the hairs on my body stood at attention like soldiers as though they were ready to fight him off if he came close to me. Where the fuck is he? I wondered as I tried to use my human senses to pinpoint where he was but to no avail.I really needed my wolf at this point. “Here she is, the very Violet Windsor herself.” The words were eerie and they sent shivers of fear down my spine and my heart thumped in my chest like
VIOLET’S POVThere were in an instant a few rogues with as much disgusting smell as their leader in the room grabbing me on both sides upon Aurora’s orders after she dragged me from his office. I tried to push them away from me, not just because they were trying to have me locked up but because of the smell being too close and almost overwhelming but to no avail. They were stronger than I was without my wolf.“Get your stingy hands off me, I can walk by myself.” I announced but they didn’t listen. It was as though they enjoyed seeing me struggle against them as they laughed with red almost black teeth.Aurora hissed where she stood, no doubt having had enough of my tantrum when she pulled out a piece of cloth from her pocket. “You had one fucking job and that was to listen but I should have known, you’re not one to ever listen unless it’s your mates ordering your pathetic ass around.” She snapped, tying my eyes tight completely taking my vision away.She pushed me forward and I walked
VIOLET’S POVI was a fool to hate my father. I was an even bigger fool to think that he never loved me when his disappearance was literally him proving that he did. Even though I didn’t know anything about it. It hurt to know that he suffered just as much as I did, if not more and there was no way that either of us could have reached out to the other.But it was still hard to believe that he did this all for me. He had the weirdest way of showing affection.“When I was a child you were never there. Especially after Mom died. You switched, you never spoke to anyone else except it was pack business related and even if you did, you never smiled with me. And then the attack happened….” I paused, I wanted him to know all that happened to me over the years. I wanted him to know what his absence cost me.I heard him sob some more and my tears found more means to fall freely as well. “I’m sorry…I’m sorry I took out my grief on you.”“That’s not the end of it… that not even the beginning of al
VIOLET’S POVI was back on the floor, running back to the images of the places we had followed while Aurora was driving me to the Rogue King’s terrain. One of the traits that made me an outstanding tracker and hunter when I needed to be was my ability to memorize map areas, whether on the field or on paper.And I could remember that the first few times Bayne had offered to train me when I first arrive Red Dawn, he was highly impressed with my skill. I was apparently better at map reading than some, if not most of his men. And he made sure everyone knew about it on the training camp.And if not for the times the mate bond caused me to give out the wrong answers – Bayne made it his duty and he went out of his way to flirt with me distracting me – I would have aced every last one of his tests.“I’m fine, stop worrying about me.” That wasn’t exactly what I wanted to say. I winced at the wrong thing I had just said and tried to correct my statement. “I mean that I am okay, but you all need
VIOLET’S POVI had never been this conflicted about a decision like I was right now. There was my father whom I had to make sure made it to a safe distance and now I could focus my attention to Aurora and the Rogue King who had her in his grasp with a silver knife to the throat.I hated the things she made me go through and a part of me wanted her to perish with the rest of the rogues she had been working with, while the bigger part of me wanted me to save her from the Rogue King himself.I bet that she could really see him for who he was now. Scum and a coward. I hoped that it would wake her up from whatever he had her doing that got her to this point right now.“Violet, don’t get too close. You know you’re the one he wants….” Adrian warned when I moved past them. I looked back, whipping my head in his direction only to realize that I had left them further back and the Rogue King’s eyes were hungry with something that told that he was going to grab me the moment I got too close.I to
VIOLET’S POVA few years have flown in and I could say that from time to time, I would think about all that has happened in my life. Sometimes the feelings were bitter, I had moved on but there were certain people I wished I had never met before and other times when it was pleasant, I would find myself thinking that everything happened to get me here.I am finally at peace.I stared at my mates and our children playing around until I felt a tugging on my pants and I looked down, snapping out of my usual day dream. My youngest daughter stared at me with big eyes and a smile immediately broke across my lips. I crouched to the ground before scooping her in my arms. “Do you need anything sweetheart?” I asked the child.Never in a million years did I think I was going to be as motherly as I was. I had two children who were eight and five years old respectively while the little munchkin in my arms was only two.I walked into the house with her, dragging my pregnant self to get some rest bec
VIOLET’S POVI woke up to the sound of soft breathing next to me and I knew it had to be my mates for I could feel them. All three of them. I smiled in my head, relieved that I was home with them and that I had the worst nightmare but that everything else was okay.But I guess that was not the case. “That wasn’t a dream, Violet. It happened and your father really is alive.” My wolf said to me, feeling more energized than I was obviously. This made my body jerk and I jolted awake with eyes wide and searching.It wasn’t a dream?By my side before I could say anything were my mates, each holding a worried expression in their eyes. My heart thumped in my chest upon seeing them but I felt a tad bit relieved that they were at least okay.Memories that I thought was a dream started to flash in my mind so fast my head started to throb in pain. I groaned while holding my head with one hand. “My head hurts….” I croaked out only to feel my throat burn from being dry. “How long was I out for?” I
