“I’ll be back later tonight, Alice will take good care of you.” I smile weakly at Sebastian as he kisses my forehead before leaving my bedroom, closing the door behind him and locking it.

He told me earlier he had some kind of committee meeting he had to be a part of, so he would be bringing Alice over to take care of me. I used to feel kind of excited when she came over, but now I just felt uneasy about her being in my house and taking care of my kids. I felt uncomfortable every time she picked one of the twins up, and wanted to rip my child out of her arms.

I throw the blanket off me quickly, sliding to sit on the edge of the bed with an annoyed huff. I reached under my tongue and pulled the two pill capsules Sebastain had given me before leaving for my “pain” and tucked them under my mattress. They were a bit soft from sitting in my mouth for too long, but Sebastain seemed hesitant to leave me these days and he lingered for a while after giving me my pills.

    I know I need to get back to my pack, but I can’t help but worry about Everly. I got a very strange phone call from her last night when the power went out. It was brief, but the first time I had heard from her in a few days. She had stopped showing up for our lessons all together, and even though they said I would be given another chance after receiving instruction from a different instructor, I couldn’t bring myself to leave yet. Everyone in this pack was gossiping about how she was sick and not leaving her house, and how the Alpha had even moved in to keep an eye on her. They seemed a little excited about it, to be honest. But that gossip combined with her weird phone call, made me think there was one person in this equation who wasn’t exactly willing. And even if Everly was willing, and I was just making a huge awkward mistake, I needed to know she was okay before I left, because there was one similar theme to all the rumors: the Luna of this pack was seriously ill. So I contact

    That bastard Sebastain had me locked in his little holding cell for two days before he finally showed up to talk to me. I had no idea what was happening during that time. I had told Everly I would save her, and had even given her a phone with the promise of contacting her. And now I was just as locked up as she was, if not more so.I was hoping Lucas had done something to help her, but I couldn’t blame him if he didn’t. I hadn't even figured out a way to get her out quite yet, so I would understand if he was stuck as to what to do, especially now that I’d been taken into custody. Shit, they might have dragged him in too, or filled his head with a bunch of lies about me. For all I know, he’s switched sides already. I look up from my bench where I’m sitting, my eyes landing on Sebastian as he finally wanders in, looking nonchalant as hell, like he hadn’t been keeping me prisoner in here for days already. He was toying with me just because he could, and we both knew it. “You going to t

    An entire day after Lucas had snuck the phone to me, and I still hadn’t gotten word from anyone. No text or call from Killian, nothing. I had already drained a fourth of the phone’s limited battery by checking it as often as I could. I was a little worried about him, to be honest, but decided I could no longer sit and wait around to be saved. If he was in fact in Sebastain’s clutches like I suspected him to be, I might have to be the one who does the recusing.First, I text one of two numbers preprogrammed into the phone, Lucas. I asked him what was going on, and if Killian was okay. Almost immediately, he texts back, telling me he thinks he’s been taken. He said they were supposed to meet after he got me the phone, but he never showed up so he moved to their emergency meeting spot, a hotel room about ten miles away from here. He said he’d been waiting there ever since, but hadn’t heard anything. I had to cut the conversation short then, and shove the phone back under the bag in th

    The twins are digging into their plates of cut up food, and I’m setting Sebastain’s lunch down on the table. It wasn’t easy, but I managed to slip some sleeping pills into his food, so in a couple hours, he’ll be out. Me having the pills at all was pure luck; they were left over from when I had the twins. I had a lot of pain after giving birth and had a hard time sleeping, so I was prescribed these. I never even took them, because I didn’t want to be sleeping so soundly I couldn’t hear the twins in the middle of the night if they needed me. I had put a hair tie around my wrist, and secured the capsules on the underside, then when I was kneading the dough for the homemade rolls I had made to go with lunch, I had separated two and dumped the powder into the dough. I had pushed my thumb into the tops of them so I could tell which ones they were.“Honestly I didn’t even know you could cook.” Sebastian says as he appears in the entryway of the kitchen. I shrug a little, and sit down in

    I stop at the edge of the parking lot of the OverNite inn, taking a second to catch my breath. I had literally just run ten miles with two children strapped to my back. The twins weren’t very happy right now, but there wasn’t much I could do. I was finally here though, and I pulled my phone out and opened Lucas’s contact. I call him, waiting anxiously for him to pick up. “Hey, you okay?” I sigh in relief when he answers. “Yeah, I’m outside.” I hear him make a confused noise, and my eye is drawn to one of the ground level floors of the motel as the curtains are drawn from the inside. I hang up the phone and approach the room, eager to get the twins off me. “What the hell are you doing here?” Lucas asks the second he opens the door. I roll my eyes a little and step into the room, sighing in relief when I finally get to sit down on the edge of the bed. Lucas closes the door and crosses his arms, obviously waiting for me to explain. “I found where Sebastain is keeping Killian. Bu

    Lucas drives me as far as he can to Sebastain’s lands, and I walk the rest of the way. I was glad, because running here the first time with the twins on my back had been a pain in the ass. He didn’t seem like he wanted to let me go, and it was sweet that he was so worried about me, but I had a purpose now. And that purpose was to find out what the hell Sebastain was up to and why there were so many coincidences piling up around him. I wanted to know how he knew May, if he even knew her at all because all of this was just speculation at this point. Lucas knew she came to his pack, but that didn’t mean she was coming to see him for sure. There were lots of people in Sebastain’s pack, and she could’ve been seeing any of them. I had been nervous as hell when I creeped back in the house just as the sun started to pierce the sky, the twins knocked out cold against my back. I was terrified Sebastain was going to be awake, waiting for me or in a furious rage at my absence. But he was liter

    I have thirty wolves so far that are willing to oppose Sebastain’s pack.I’m currently sitting in the bathtub, soaking while I text Lucas from my still secret phone. It had been sixteen hours since I’d snuck out, and so far, Sebastian seemed to be none the wiser. He had slept for another eight hours the day I had medicated him, than left a couple guards outside so he could go get some pack stuff done. I had half expected him to come back angry, having found out I’d found Killian and left his pack, but he came back totally normal, telling me about some pack member who was failing at their job. I haven’t seen Alice since I told her I heard Sebastain talking to another woman on the phone late at night, and that was okay, because she wasn’t my favorite person right now. I suspected she was very, very two faced, and wouldn't be surprised to hear she’s been playing me this entire time. I was feeling a little foolish for telling her so much and letting her get so close to my kids. Especia

    “So who’s in charge of all your guards?” I ask as Sebastain leads me down a trail through the woods. We had ended up leaving the twins with a couple guards and a maid, because he couldn’t get ahold of Alice. I had felt a little weird leaving my kids with strangers, but the maid at the very least seemed overjoyed to be around the charming twins. Me telling Alice that Sebastain was talking to another woman really seemed to get under her skin, because I hadn’t seen or heard from her since then. I had suspected her feelings for him already, but now I was picturing her stabbing a voodoo doll made of his hair in some candle-lit room while she casts curses. She seemed a little… possessive maybe? Definitely more than a little intense. “Well, my Beta Tanner oversees a lot of them, but he has a few trusted wolves under him he delegates some of his duties to as well, just like I do with him.” He shrugs a little as he answers my question. I think back. I had only met Tanner a couple of times

    Was this how Everly felt when I had been unfaithful in our marriage? Did she too feel this sadness, this envy, this anger?All I could think about was hearing those words from her, “I’m pregnant. And it’s not yours.” Over and over again like a broken record.Pure, unfiltered rage courses through my veins as I stomped out of our house, swinging the door open so hard it cracked against the wall behind it. I ignored the stares from the pack members I’d had outside with Ella and Eli, and didn't stop to answer their questions of where I was going and if I was okay. The twins would be fine with them for a little, maybe better than if they were left in my care.Because I was anything but okay. My woman was pregnant with another man’s child, and I had a very good feeling on who’s it was. I could tell by her hesitation, the tone in her voice. It was that bastard’s, Sebastain’s. The image of them screwing pissed me off, and made bile rise in my throat. I didn’t even want to think about them

    “Hey, babe. How’d it go today?” Killian’s voice says in my ear through my phone. I swallowed thickly at his question, clenching the phone in my hand so tightly I was scared it was going to break. This was the part I was dreading. Killian and I were just reconnecting, and now I was about to tell him I was going to be gone for some undetermined amount of time. Not to mention… There was a baby growing in me right now. What if I was gone for months? I would show back up with a swollen belly. That would be nothing if not jarring. I mean, it’s not like I had cheated on him or anything. But I still felt guilty, horrible even, at the life growing inside of me. “It was okay.” I say, then fall silent. I know he’s waiting for me to tell him more, what I chose to do, because I hadn’t even told him my plan. It was kind of a last minute call. That, and I’m too weak. He had hugged me with such warmth before I left, kissing my cheek and telling me he couldn't wait for me to come home. “Uhm. I gues

    Three days later…For some reason, Sebastian’s pack land looked different to me this time around. It seemed less foreign, for sure. I had lived there for a while, and spent plenty of time wandering around. Less intimidating, maybe, now that I knew there was no scheming man waiting around the corner. I walked behind Adam and a couple other committee members who had tagged along, a woman named Marlin, a man named Thomas. This morning, Adam and them had shown up at my door, and told me we would be travelling here today, to announce my decision to the pack and appoint a new Alpha if my choice was to leave. He told me I could have them fight me or each other, do a poll, whatever I felt was the best call to pick the new leader. Sebastian didn’t have an official Beta, so while that would normally be the first logical choice, unfortunately it wasn’t an option this time around. Strangely enough, none of them had asked what I was going to do yet today. Adam kept eyeing me, like he was doubti

    Since returning to Kilian’s pack things had been… different. I was happy to be back with Killian and our kids. We were finally together, able to raise them side by side. I wasn’t having to look over my shoulder because I had to be on guard all the time, and Killian was paying me more attention than ever before. Apart from that, there were a few more serious things going on. For example, Sebastian’s pack was left without an Alpha. The committee members were breathing down my neck, telling me I either needed to relinquish my position over to someone else, or step up and take charge of the dozens of wolves looking for a leader. And don’t even get me started on Felix’s pack. They weren’t in my top list of priorities, I can't lie. Most of them had run off, only a few of the new members who had been forced into Felix’s pack had stuck around. Honestly, I had kind of been hoping Sebastain would show back up. I would be more than happy to hand his pack back over. I didn’t want it. I hadn’t

    The ride back to Killian’s pack was mostly quiet; he’d ask me something every once in a while, about the twins or his pack. But I think we both had a lot on our minds. I know I did. The car had dropped us as close to the pack lands as it could, and we walked the rest of the way. “God, I’m glad to be back in these woods.” Killian said as we walked along. He had his face tilted to look at the tops of the trees, and was smiling a little for the first time in what felt like forever. It was kind of cute, the way he was acting like he was literally being recharged just by being in his woods again. “What are you smiling at?” He asks me, bumping his shoulder against mine a little. I shake my head, and look up at him. “Just… happy we both got to come back here together.” I say. “Did you miss this place at all?” He asks, looking down at me. I nod a little. “Yeah, I guess I did. Or really I missed the good memories I had attached to it.” He nods along. “Like… Do you remember that one nigh

    A lot had happened since I had beaten both Sebastain and Felix. Most of which I wasn’t currently letting Killian in on. It’s not that I didn’t trust him or think he wasn’t capable anymore, but I knew he was hurt. And I knew only half of the pain he was feeling right now was physical. First of all, May reared her annoying ass in again. It makes sense, as she had been spotted previously hanging out with Felix, and had been acting suspiciously close with him before. But I was a bit surprised when his body was taken away by his pack members, and she surfaced through the crowd, like she’d been there the entire time. “Look who’s leveled up in the world.” she had sneered at me as she glared down at the unconscious Felix. She looked at me bitterly, like I had taken something from her. She had gone on about how this and this were supposed to happen, but now everything was ruined since I’d stuck my nose into everything. She said I was in the way, like always, and should’ve just learned my

    I always thought Everly had such a pretty side profile. I remember when I first started getting to know her, I would stare at her across the courtyard at our college, just watching her read or talk to someone. I liked the curve of her lips, the way her lashes brush the tops of her cheeks when she blinked.That’s what I was thinking about as I watched her talk to the doctor who had been taking care of me for the past couple of days. I was being released. My injuries weren’t all the way healed, but I was good enough. The doctor had actually said that. I wasn’t upset about it or anything, I was ready to get out of here as it was. I was still in Sebastain’s pack. Or I guess, Everly’s pack. We hadn’t actually talked too much about that little fact yet. I’d tried to bring it up a couple times, to find out what exactly happened. I knew the outcome of everything, but I still felt like I was missing a lot of important details. But whenever I did bring it up, suddenly Everly had to pee so

    Failure. You lost. Pathetic. You don’t deserve to be Alpha. These words are the only ones that fill my head as someone carried my unconscious body like a sack of potatoes. I didn’t know who it was, if they were taking me to finish me off or help me, but I didn’t care. I can’t believe I lost. My mind can’t quite put everything that happened in order, not yet at least. I remember the beginning of the fight, flashes of Everly’s anxious face watching me get my ass kicked. I remember… getting knocked down. Lots of yelling. But I’m not sure why… I couldn’t pick out what they had been saying. Sounded like a woman, calling someone a monster. But who would be yelling that, and why? And I remember opening my eyes for a moment, and seeing Everly kneeling above me, blood on her chin, and her eyes so, so worried for me. Why was there blood on her chin? “...you gotta open your eyes buddy.” Whoever that is sounds familiar. Lucas? He was the only one who would call me something like “buddy.”

    I hadn’t utilized my wolf much since she’d come back to me, a few small conversations here and there, but she didn’t seem all that chatty, to be honest. Though it wasn’t like she was before, either. I had even asked her once if she wanted to be let out so she could go for a run, but she said no, she was fine watching. Which I thought was a little weird, just because of what I’d heard about your wolf’s nature inside when I was a kid, was that it could always be begging to be let out. Wolves loved to run and play, hunt and kill. But my wolf always seemed like she preferred to remain inside, silently watching my life play out. It was a little odd, to be honest. I guess one might assume she’d be weak, from all that time spent locked up. But she wasn’t. She ripped through my skin, making Felix laugh like an evil maniac, and grin with excitement. He tears off his own shirt, and begins turning into his wolf. I hope my wolf knew what she was doing. I hope we dont both die today. I want
