Gary's POVI can't believe my own daughter would do this to me. I am her father. I should have known she would turn on me. I always knew she was weak and useless. "The Alphas plan on punishing you tomorrow. I am sure you know what that means," Norman said "Yes, they are going to kill me," I replied"That is what they think. I am getting you out of here," he said, confusing me."How?" I asked"With a little help from some friends of mine," He said, and two younger guards, Jesse and Jamison, walked inside."You have everything ready," Norman asked them."Yes, but we have to go now. Alpha Stephen is supposed to come and check on him soon," Jamison said "Okay, then let's go," Norman said, and Jamison unlocked the cuffs that were on my wrist, and we headed outside the cell. I was weak from all the wolfsbane the Alphas had ordered the guards to inject me daily."Where are you taking the prisoner?" One of the guards, Daniel, asked"I am here to take him back with me to the council," Norm
Gwen's POV"I am sorry," I said as Stephen drove to my parent's house. "I know you are sorry, Gwen. I just wish you never made those choices," Stephen said "I wish I didn't make them too. I feel horrible for the way I treated Claire," I replied"So, are the two of you okay now?" Stephen asked"You weren't listening when we were talking?" I asked"No. Steven and I thought you and Claire needed to talk. She had a hard time being without you. She tried to hide it from Steven and me, but we noticed," Stephen said"I feel terrible for everything that happened. I can't help but feel it was all my fault," I said "It wasn't all your fault, but you should have made better decisions. Just make sure you don't hurt her again," Stephen said."I promise you I will never hurt her again," I replied"I believe you," Stephen said. The rest of the ride was quiet as we drove to my parents house."Mom are you here?" I said as we walked into my parent's house.Stephen and I walked into the kitchen to se
Gwen's POV "Have you found anything," Stephen asked one of the guards as we walked into the jail. "Yes, we have gone through the surveillance video and can see where Norman showed Daniel some documents before walking out of jail with Gary. We believe that the two guards, Jesse and Jamison, also had something to do with this. "Of course, they would. Jesse is James' cousin and is probably upset because you killed him. Jamison is Jesse's best friend," I said, looking at Stephen. "I need all of you to patrol the area and neighborhood packs. I will get ahold of their Alphas and let them know you are coming," Stephen said "Yes, Alpha," The warriors said and left the room."The Council should be here shortly. They said they were going to come and help us figure out where Norman might have taken Gary. We are going to have to tell them that your mom is with them, Gwen," Steven said"I know. I can't believe she would leave like that," I replied. I was upset with my mom. How could she leave
Gwen's POV "What do you want?" Karen asked weakly as I walked into the cell she was in. She had chains laced with wolfsbane on her wrists. "That is not the way to talk to your Beta, Karen," Stephen said. I saw Stephen and Steven standing behind me by the cell door. When Karen saw Steven, her eyes began to light up a little. "Steven, I knew you would come for me," Karen said, causing me to roll my eyes. I had tried to tell Steven numerous times that Karen was a crazy bitch. "It is Alpha Steven, and I am not here to save you, Karen. We have some questions to ask you?" Steven replied "Why did you help Gary kidnap my Mate?" I asked "Because she stole my Mate away from me," Karen said. She still hadn't taken her eyes off Steven as she spoke. "I am not your Mate. Claire is my Mate and your future Luna. How many times do I have to tell you that?" Steven growled "That's not what Gary told me. He told me that Claire used some type of power to make you all think she was all of your Ma
Gwen's POVDid Gary ever tell you about a book?" Stephen asked as we walked to Karens families old home."No, he never told me anything about a book, but then again, you know he never told me anything about his side of the family," I replied. "Well, if it was supposed to have been passed down to you, that means he should have given it to you this year since you are eighteen now. I am happy she didn't tell Norman where she hid the book," Stephen said "I know, so am I. I guess Karen ain't as crazy as I thought she was," I replied, causing Stephen to laugh. We looked over to where Karen was walking with Steven. Her hands and head are on his shoulder as they walk hand in hand to her parent's home. I could see the disgust on Steven's face, but he was trying to hide it until she took us to where she hid the book."Well, maybe she is as crazy as I thought she was," I said"Yes, she is. You would have thought she would have learned by now that Steven doesn't want anything to do with her but
Gary's POV"How could you let Gwen get ahold of the book?" My older brother, Turner, yelled while throwing the papers off his desk. After Norman helped me escape, we ended up going to the human territory where my older brother lives. He has been residing among the humans since I was a teen after he and my parents got banished from our old Pack, The Silver Crest Pack."I told that little bitch Karen not to give it to anyone. Norman asked her where the book was, but she told him she wouldn't tell him until he got her out of her cell," I replied"Why didn't he get her out then?" "He couldn't. There were too many warriors watching the cells. It was hard enough for him to get me out without getting caught by the Twin Alphas. He was supposed to go back and find the book after he got me off the Pack Territory," I replied"You should have gone and found the book before you left. Now that Gwen has the book, we are fucked. You knew you were supposed to convince her to join our side," he growl
Stephen's POV"Hey dad," I said as Steven, Gwen, and I walked onto his floor. Mom was on our floor with Claire keeping her company."Hey. Did you find anything out about Gary?" My dad asked."That is why we came to see you. Have you heard of this book?" Gwen asked and handed the book to him. He took it and began turning the pages which were still blank. "No. What are you doing with a blank book?" He asked."You can't see any words on the pages?" Gwen asked"No. As you can see, there are none," My dad said"But that's the thing. I can see words on the pages. I haven't looked through the whole book yet, but It tells about different types of gifted wolves," Gwen said. My father closed the book and looked at the wolf that was on the front cover. "Where did you get this book?" My dad asked still looking at the Books Cover."Gary had it. Karen told us that he gave it to her and told her to hide the book. She said she overheard Monica and him saying that he was supposed to pass the book to
Claire's POV"Yes, Princess. Everything is fine," Stephen said, but I could tell he was lying."I don't believe you. Tell me what is wrong," I asked. "We already told you nothing is wrong. You need to stop worrying," Stephen said "I know you are lying to me. Please tell me what's going on," I said, and they stayed silent, which pissed me off because what right did they have to keep things from me. "I refuse to be kept in the dark. I have already been through so much and deserve to know when something is happening. If you can't tell me what's going on, then we are going to have a problem," I said"You are overthinking, Angel," Steven said. I knew they weren't going to tell me, so I went to our bedroom, put on my shoes, and walked toward the front door."Where are you going?" Stephen asked"Since you won't tell me what you are hiding, I am going to sleep in my old room tonight," I said. "That's ridiculous. You are overreacting. You don't have to go to your old room," Stephen replied
