Chapter 31 Hardball
LUCIAN POV
"What will you do with them," Amber asks as soon as we get to my office.
Different ideas pop into my mind, but none are truly ideal. I need more time to decide. I don't want to decide too quickly and make the wrong choices again.
"I'm not sure. I don't want to leave them high and dry, but I can't risk the pack by not relocating tomorrow. Brazil is our best bet," I explain while heading towards my desk.
"Umm. Can you...can you put on some clothes please," Amber asks while getting a good view of my butt, and I smirk before nodding.
I open a drawer and pull on the gym shorts I keep there before turning back towards her. My eyes zero in on the fatigue under her eyes and the dried blood on the sides of her neck. And my amused attitude immediately evaporates. Remorse punctures my soul and guilt pract

AMBER POV "What will you do with them," I ask as soon as we make it to Lucian's office. "I'm not sure. I don't want to leave them high and dry, but I can't risk the pack by not relocating tomorrow. Brazil is our best bet," he says while walking butt naked towards his desk. My cheeks blush a little as I check out his muscular back and tight butt. I have no idea how old Lucian is, but he is definitely all man. Maybe I shouldn't be kissing him...I'm only a sophomore in high school. Oh my gosh...I made out with a man. A naked man! "Umm. Can you...can you put on some clothes please," I ask as I begin to feel more uncomfortable rather than attracted. He nods and immediately opens a drawer to his desk. He pulls out a pair of gym shorts and tugs them on before facing me again. When he does, his happy demeanor seems to shift instantly. His eyes roam over m
The Human Chapter 33 Plane
AMBER POV "And they are okay with all of them coming," Kohn asks as we watch pack member after pack member board a private plane that is massive. After last night I am still a little annoyed at Kohn for causing more friction between Amber and I. I am his Alpha. He might be my friend, but I miss the days in which he feared me. "Kohn, do not question me again. I have fixed the situation. The females are coming with us. I still haven't forgotten last night," Lucian growls, and a shudder runs down my back at the memory. "Where will the pups be," I ask curiously, trying to pull Lucian's attention to me. I don't want him trying to submit Kohn on the asphalt. I am so tired of seeing violence. "In the cargo hold. Our lives will be very different in Brazil. Much of our material possessions won't be c
The Human Chapter 34 Brazil
AMBER POV I didn't pay attention to anything when we arrived in the little village hidden deep in the jungle a few hours ago. Lucian took me start to a simple structure, and I haven't left since. I keep trying to sleep, but when I close my eyes, I see everyone I have lost...Kohn, other Amber, the station attendant, my dad, my mom, and even Thatcher. Kenny isn't dead, but I will never see him again. So his face flashes amongst the rest. My entire body feels hollow. I don't think I can even grieve anymore. My eyes are dry, and my throat hurts from the dry sobs. Not to mention the new environment is causing me to sweat profusely, probably using the moisture my body typically makes tears with. I hate feeling this pain. I hate feeling all this guilt. It's all my fault. If I had never blown up that basement all this would have never happened. Lu
The Human Chapter 35 Vegetarian
LUCIAN POV I growl as Alpha Bietio rattles off news of packs moving against humans around the world in Portuguese. I don't need to know any of this information right now. I need to know how my second is doing. I need to call our emergency cells to see if he picked one up, and Alpha Bietio won't hand over the only phone they have. As he hears my growl, his eyes flash yellow, and he shows me his fangs. (Current language being used is Portuguese) "I invited you here—this my territory. I am Alpha here. This is important. You think the other beings will let werewolves harm humans? You forget we are the abominations. Humans are natural to this world, just as they are. We aren't. If too many humans die, they will take action. They hate us," Bietio shouts, and my mind works quickly to translate his words. When I finally und
The Human Chapter 36 Mating
AMBER POV After a few days in Brazil with the other pack, Kohn arrived, and he wasn't alone. He had found his mate along his journey to us...but there was a problem. His mate doesn't speak English, and she doesn't speak a language that anyone here knows. So we can't communicate with her at all, basically even to this day. Another problem with Kohn bringing his mate in my book is he kidnapped her. She is human and doesn't understand anything happening around her, which makes me feel so bad for her. The first week she was here, she kept trying to run away. Kohn would have to go get her and bring her back almost every morning, but that stopped happening. Now she just sits and stares off in space. I usually sit with her, but I also help with chores when Lucian isn't looking. Lucian talks to me at night about what is happening out in the world, and to be ho
The Human Chapter 37 Shifted
AMBER POV I stumble as tears fill my eyes, making it hard to see the ground. The feeling of not being good enough swallows my heart as the yearning in my chest for me to return to Lucian grows stronger. I never thought he would consider mating someone else. Not after all this time anyway. Back when we first met, and he was an absolute monster down to his very core, sure, but not now, not after countless nights of cuddling and gentle words. It hurts so bad knowing he considered it! He considered throwing me away so that he could mate a wolf. Blinding pain rips across my chest, and I lose my footing as a sob escapes my throat. I let the tears fall while punching the moist earth. After all, he did to me. I am the one wanting him more than he wants me. How pathetic! "Amber," a gravelly voice says, and I jump a foot in the air while
The Human Chapter 38 Taken
AMBER POV "Malcolm, where are we," I ask after my kidnapper finally sets me down and shifts back to human. The other pups immediately head off into the brush, and Malcolm begins to gather massive pieces of moss-covered logs. "Deep in the forest. We have to reach the spot she spoke of before tomorrow," he mumbles as he stacks the logs with ease, even though they look extremely heavy. An uneasy wave of fear passes over my skin as I try to piece together what he is talking about. Ever since I woke up, we have done nothing but run. I have no idea how long I was asleep or how far from Lucian I am, but I know I need to get back. Lucian will go crazy when he finds me missing, and he won't be able to reign himself in when he catches up with us. He will kill all the pups. He won't care about their parents' feelings or mine. I won't
The Human Chapter 39 Portal
AMBER POV "We are close, Amber, just a little farther. I know you are tired, but we are almost there," Malcolm coaxes as I fake fall again. I have done everything humanly possible to slow our progress since the wee hours of this morning, but it hasn't helped. Malcolm has coddled me every step of the way. He has pushed me to keep moving and has even carried me at times. I can't stall much longer. But I don't know what else to do. Lucian has yet to show up and all my cards were riding on him. "I'm sorry, Malcolm. I just can't keep my footing in all this brush," I explain for the fiftieth time. The other pups pace and growl at me to show their displeasure with my clumsiness, but Malcolm only shoots them a look. "I can carry you, Amber. I will be gentler," Malcolm pleads softly,
