CHAPTER FORTY
A hand to hold
Star paced from wall to wall of her apartment, it’s been days since the meeting at the Lockwood Pack and just as long since she decided to make some changes, what those were, she still had no idea.
She just got off the phone with Ray who informed her that the anonymous tip-off was sent to the investigating authority regarding the illegal practices of The Academy and his contact at the high court confirmed that the inquiry was sitting on the desk of the right person. Truly they had no way of knowing who was clean and who was dirty, but they had to try.
She was tasked with the duty of informing Maximus, but she hesitated, how would he react to her calling him.

HomecomingStar walked alongside Maximus as they made their way to Landon and Donna’s newly built home, the air between them was awkward and heavily charged with tension, but still he insisted he is the one to escort her to his Beta’s house.Donna had no idea she was visiting, she wanted to surprise her friend and made her bring along a huge pamper pack for the mom-to-be. Hoping to make up for some of her absence.“She’s due any day now so Landon took time off to care for her, she’s on bed rest.” Star nodded as the house came into view.“How bad has it been?” She looked up to Max, afraid of the answer when he grimaced.

AcceptanceSitting up on her bed, Star sighed. The room looked exactly the same as she left it, even the little items she added to the room remained in place, it almost seemed like she hadn’t left at all.“No one touched anything,” Max stated when she took in the room.“Why?” She looked up at him with curious eyes, noticing the sad gleam he held.“Besides the fact that Donna wouldn’t let them, everyone hoped you’d come back one day.” His lips turned up in a smile at his last words, the question was on her tongue, but she bit back her curiosity, no need to get more into our feelings.

The patter of tiny feet“Star!” Donna cried abruptly letting go of her mate’s hand to reach for her friend.“I’m here sweetheart, you’re doing a wonderful job, I’m so proud of you.” Star smiled and tucked a few strands of wayward hair from her face.“It hurts so much.” Donna’s face scrunched up like she was about to cry and Star shushed her.“I know, but you’re a fighter and soon you’ll be known as supermom.” Donna Smiled tiredly.“You think so?” Star recoiled like she was offended.

The moments that matterAfter what seemed like hours, Beta Landon Pierce welcomed them into the room to meet the newest member and future Beta of the Lockwood pack.Azaiah Pierce was born on 22 December at 9:11 am, weighing 8lbs.“Oh, Donna!” Star teared up when her eyes landed on the delicate red-faced baby lying on his mother’s chest. Donna was beaming, the pain replaced by a relieved and adoring smile.“Congratulations both of you.” Star heard Max’s happy voice behind her, but her eyes were set only on the tinny hands that clenched when he moved.“He’s so beautiful, you did so well.” She reached

Fighting for love The meal prepared by the pack’s kitchen staff looked delectable, but she could hardly taste her food above the tension between her and Max. “You should eat more, you've lost too much weight since you left.” Max glared at her plate which consisted of a single egg, a slice of toast, and one rasher of bacon. She could see the disapproval in his eyes. “I don’t have much of an appetite.” She tensed up. She knew they would notice, but she never expected him to mention it outright. “I don’t believe you, you hardly ate last night.” He narrowed his eyes at her and her hands balled up into fists. “You don’t get to tell me what to do!” Star snapped and pushed back her chair, she’d had just about enough of his scrutiny. She discarded the leftover food and rushed out of the dining hall, she could hear Max following her, but her agitation kept her gaze focussed ahead. “Star, stop!” Max’s firm grip pulled her to a stop, the jerk causing a tear to fall

A colossal surprise“Where are you taking me?” After her call with Ray, Star went in search of Max, but in his office found Greg, who insisted he would lead her to Max himself, but the direction they were walking in was one she’d never been in, in her stay on pack territory.“Alpha Max is this way, we’re almost there.” The pathway was marked and Star wracked her brain to recall if it had been there before, but nothing came up.Suddenly a large building came into view, it looked to be brand new and still incomplete, that’s when Star realized it was a new house, and Max’s presence there made sense. She had no idea they were building on pack land, but in the little time she’d been back she was far too preoccupied to notice.

A spitting image in body and soulMax was on a conference call with the Alphas explaining the situation they found themselves in when Star’s phone vibrated in her hand, she was seated across from him at his desk, behind the camera on his laptop, and quickly excused herself when she saw the name on the screen.“Hello?” Star answered, stepping into her room.“Star, it’s Jeremy.” Star took a seat on her bed.“Hey, Jeremy, I’m guessing you’ve got something for me?” She kept her voice calm and heard the Sheriff sigh.“It’s worse than I thought.” Star perked up at that, she b
The Huntress' Revenge CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT
Bonding with the Beta Star stared up at the ceiling above her with a magnitude of thoughts running through her head, no matter how hard she tried, her mind wouldn’t allow her to even close her eyes. She was still eagerly awaiting Max’s call and beneath the worry, she missed him like crazy. She found it hard to believe she spent months without him and now after only a day, she felt like her lungs were closing up at the distance between them. A sudden knock on her door, made Star sit up with a frown, “Come in.” She glanced at the clock across the room slipped out from under the sheet and switched on the light by her bedside. The door was pushed open and in the doorway stood Landon in a pair of sweatpants and a faded T-shirt. “You couldn’t sleep either, huh?” Star smiled and beckoned him in when he spoke. He seemed hesitant at first, but his steps gained confidence the closer he was. “It’s like my eyes are held open by toothpicks, I can barely blink waiting
