"We need to hurry; we're going to be later than I thought," she mutters, starting the engine before she entirely sits down."I told you we would be," he reminds her, rolling his eyes and sitting in silence."Are you nervous?" She asks, trying to make conversation while she tunes the radio."No," he responds, staring ahead of himself."Right," Avery mutters, stepping on the gas and willing her car to go faster.She takes on the corners with little caution, and more than once Hayden has to hold himself back from cursing as he grabs onto the handle above the window.When she nearly smashes into a tree, Hayden has had enough, and grabs the steering wheel."You crazy bitch, are you trying to get us both killed?" He glares at her, and she slaps his hands off the wheel."I don't want to be any later than we have to be," she comments, not looking over at him.Well, that got his attention, Sonya quips."Well, we'll be very late if we're dead," he fires back, "I happen to have something to live

The next few hours, everybody was on autopilot.Everybody was going everywhere, but nobody knew what they were doing.Zephyr was called, but nobody could remember who phoned him.This had never happened before. The Alpha of Moonstone Mountain burst onto their pack lands with no warning in a flurry of horror.Avery had stormed into the emergency room, her trench coat swirling around her legs and her eyes flashing black.Nurses and doctors had gotten out of the way as quickly as they possibly could, and some patients fainted at the sheer level of dominance she was giving off.When Zephyr arrived at the hospital, he had found Avery pinning the paramedic she had recognised up against the wall.Her eyes were completely black, and Sonya didn't even make a note of Zephyr entering the break room.She was completely distracted by the possibility of bloodshed"Avery, have you found anything?" He barks, and she turns to him quickly, holding the woman up by her throat."No. I'm trying to get inf

Okay, honestly? I did not see that one coming, Sonya admits, absolutely baffled.Neither of them is really sure what's going on.Okay, that doesn't mean she had anything to do with Lilith's disappearance, Avery reasons to herself, and then clears her throat, returning to speaking to the man who's waiting for a response.What time was the call made at?, Avery asks, and the man clears his throat awkwardly.She can practically feel his nervousness through the link.Just before 2 pm, he quickly responds, and Avery furrows her brows, pulling out her cellphone and looking at her call history.She squints at the recent callers until she finds Kali's number, and then she frowns."Somebody tell me I'm not crazy, and that this number is two," Avery urges, holding her phone out in front of her.Louisa grumbles, and then peers at the screen and rolls her eyes."Yes, it says two," she drawls, putting her free hand onto her hip.Avery silently nods and returns to the man on the link.Thank you, she

The four of them keep walking, but Hayden isn't happy.He doesn't want to be in danger of dying when he has the chance to finally see his son again.But he also doesn't go back on his word, so he's struggling to continue.His wolf is at war with him, torn between self-preservation and a need to protect others.Avery is having a similar battle, but the need to protect her friend wins every time.She can sense the tension in the air, and she glances back at Hayden."You can go back if you want to," she shrugs, and he clenches his jaw."I'm no pussy," he snarls, and she rolls her eyes away from him."I never said you were," she says quietly, "I'd just understand if you wanted to go to the surface."He doesn't respond, and they walk for another few meters until Louisa stops suddenly."What's wrong?" Avery asks, and Louisa slams her hand over her sister's mouth immediately, pointing to the wall beside them.Avery raises an eyebrow and tries to talk, and Lilith frantically shakes her head,
The Fated Mates Fifty Nine (III)
It's so dark in the tunnels that it's almost impossible to see more than five feet in front of yourself.I'm the one doing all of the work, Sonya reminds her irritably. Her phone rings suddenly, and she pulls it out of her pocket after she pushes the boy against a wall to keep a hold on him."Yeah?" She asks, and she hears coughing on the other end."Ave, I'm sending Zephyr in," Louisa chirps, and Avery nods.She realises her sister can't see her through a phone and resists the urge to groan."That's perfect, thanks, Lou," she sighs, and Louisa hangs up.She was civil in that sentence, Sonya gasps dramatically. Avery ignores her wolf and pulls the boy away from the wall, continuing the descent.It eventually levels out, and the front boy starts shaking.Avery notices there's a large emission of power somewhere nearby - nothing that she can't handle, but she can see Hayden is trying not to flinch, and the boys are both vibrating with fear."What is that?" Avery asks her prisoner, and

A tapping noise greets Avery as she opens her eyes."Shh," she mumbles, rolling over.As she rolls over, she rests her weight on her face.A hiss leaves her lips, and she bolts upright, clapping a hand over the bandage covering her cheek."Wasn't that stupid," Hayden mutters, looking up from his cellphone."Why am I here?" She grumbles, and he sighs, pulling his legs off the arm of the chair he's slumped in."You fainted. I had to carry you all the way here, and you're a lot heavier than you look," he grunts, and Avery scowls at him."You could have left me there," she snaps, looking down at the hospital gown she's in."Who changed me?" She asks sharply, and he rolls his eyes at her."One of the nurses, they wouldn't let you wear filthy jeans to lay down on their clean beds," he sighs, settling back into the seat."Oh," she mutters, "why did I faint?"Hayden sighs again, shaking his head at her."I'm not a doctor, so I have no idea. I pressed the call button when you started making no
The Fated Mates Sixty (II)
Once he's satisfied, he lets her out too.He's treating us like a child, Avery growls.He's watching out for us, accept the help. You're useless right now, and I'm using my energy for our face. Let him worry about sniffing everyone else out, Sonya warns her.I'm not letting him do it all day, Avery warns grudgingly.You'll let him do whatever he says until we're back in proper condition, Sonya grunts.Avery inhales angrily, blocking her wolf out and following Hayden silently.He's slightly surprised at her lack of arguing, but he doesn't question it - it's nice to have some silence for once, he's been surrounded by people who like to talk all day.His wolf is on edge, probably because they're in the hospital. He hates hospitals, because they never bring good news for him - his mate died in one, and his son has been in one for almost two years.This reminds him of a question he meant to ask this morning."Do you know when Tobias will be here?" He asks quietly, looking down the hall and
