Maggie’s pov

Stupid Roman. Stupid me. How could I have believed him when he told me Rain liked me? I love being friends with Zuri. She is the best and although we look different, we actually have a lot in common. We both like really bad romantic movies and shows. Also good ones, just anything with romance in it basically. We laugh at the same thing, we both love the colors red and black and we both love to eat at my mom’s bakery.

But when she is next to me, it’s like I don’t exist. People only see Zuri and I just fade into the background like some stupid wallflower. Which is funny, because with my red hair I always thought I would stand out. I thought I get teased over my freckles and hair, but no. That would mean people actually see me.

So when stupid, stupid Roman, my cousin, let me know Rain wanted to go on a double date. I was so excited. I knew who Rain was and I had admired it from afar. I mean our parents are all friends, so I have seen him grow up and he’s grown up into a fi

    Zuri’s pov “If you really like Roman, I won’t keep you from him. I mean he’s a player, but in movies they always change for the right girl. So who knows. But you should know, Rain likes you too. So it might cause some issue between them. But I guess that’s up to them to figure out. I’m just saying, if you want to go on a date with Roman, I won’t get mad.” Maggie said two days after the party, during lunch break. “Really? I mean he’s really cute, but I wouldn’t date him, if you didn’t want me to. And I don’t want to come between friends.” “I get that, but it’s already too late for that and by no fault of your own. You can’t help it if they both like you.” She looked sad when she said both. I knew Maggie liked Rain. I don’t even think she knew how much she liked him. Until he turned her down. She just admired him from afar, but when there suddenly was a real opportunity and he might like her back, it gave her hope to think about more. And that hope was crushed during our stupid doubl

    Sierra’s pov Living at the campus with Kate has been great. We miss the rest, but it’s nice to have this time to study something that I love, with the woman I love. We’ve grown even closer and it’s the best feeling coming home to her. But right now, I’m staying at my mom’s house for a few days. I feel like I neglected Roman a bit. He’s my brother and he’s fighting with his best friend. Mom said he wants to be a soldiers and she’s really scared what that will mean for his future. We haven’t gone to war in some time, but if we did, Roman would be on the front line. I don’t think she realizes that as the Beta I will be too. “Maybe that’s the whole point? Your mom already has one daughter who has a high risk job. She doesn’t want to lose you both, like she did your dad.” Grace said. Grace could be right. It must be hard for mom to see her kids grow up and choose jobs that are dangerous. But I don’t think Roman wants to take over her shop, even if he does help out sometimes. He just li

    Rain’s pov I felt restless all day. Zuri didn’t tell me no, but she for sure didn’t tell me yes. I should have talked to her sooner. It’s not like I couldn’t talk to girls at all, I just had a hard time talking to those that I liked. I get stuck in my head, thinking about what to say, what to do. It doesn’t really help that my mom drilled into my head, from a young age, that I should treat women respectfully. “Always ask permission before touching someone… A yes can still turn into a no, don't just ask once... Always read their body language…. Always use a condom… Your body is yourr and no one is allowed to touch you without your says o, Rain. Same as them… Don’t do anything you don’t feel ready to… Always make sure she is having fun… No means no…” They’re all good thing for a kid to learn, but if you have heard them as much as I have, you start to worry too much. I don’t want to do or say the wrong thing. It wasn’t until last year, that mom told me why she was so adamant about me

    Little something that might make it easier to remember who everyone is. I am doing this just as much for me as you. lol. Because I often forget people’s age or who they're related to. So here it goes. I have realized I should have given them all birthdays. I guess that’s why the Iron River pack has practically no seasons, so I didn’t have to think when their birthdays are. By this time: Asher is 22. Soon 23 + Leia is 19 years old, soon will 20 Aeryn is 1 by now. Sierra is 22 years old + Kate is 19 years old, soon will be 20 Riker is 3 now New characters. Ela + Easton have two boys. They’re mixed Indian and African American. Ela has the bakery. Easton is lawywer. Rishi is 16. Gay. Short afro. Clean shaven. Stylish. Jai is 14 Ariel + Troy have two girls. Troy is a soldier, Gamma Talia’s older brother and cousin of Beta Riker and Jara. Ariel and Ela have a bakery. Maggie is 16. Ginger like her mom. Slim and short. Dresses in oversized clothing and doesn’t care. Feisty. Wallflo

    Roman’s pov “Why are you here?” I growled when Rain walked in. “Because this whole thing is dumb. I like Zuri, you like Zuri. But that doesn’t mean we have to start hating each other. Maggie just told me, Zuri isn’t into me. That she likes you, so I guess I just have to stop trying.” Rain said. “You’re a catch Rain. You’re a much better person than I am. It’s her loss. If you don’t want me to date Zuri, I won’t.” I told Rain. I did really want to date her. I got beat up by Maggie and insulted and I had to find someone to date Maggie, just to get a chance to date Zuri. It was more than I usally did for a girl. But if Rain asked me to, I would not go out with Zuri. I owed him that much. “You can date her. Honestly, it’s the first time I ever seen you make any effort to date someone. Usually the girls just say yes and you don’t even have to try.” I laughed, “I guess it’s my good looks.” Rain shook his head, “it’s more than that. I wish I didn’t hear this, but there is this rumor in

    Zuri’s pov I got a message on my phone from Roman. “I have a potential guy to date Maggie, he is coming here next week. You think she’s up for make-over though? X Roman” Really? A make-over? Like in every movie where apparently the girl isn’t enough until she starts wearing dresses and make-up. But honestly, Maggie could use a make-over. She didn’t used to dress like this. I’ve seen pictures of her with dresses or cute shirts when she was young. I think her mom picked out the clothes back then. I came to this pack with my dad four years ago, after my mom died. It had been hard, just the two of us. But having friends like Maggie and Rishi helped. They let me into their little group and it’s been the three of us ever since. We might look different, but inside we’re all the same. We like all the same things. Well, Maggie likes to spar and I really hate fighting. The only reason I do, is because the school makes me. And dad, he likes to know I am able to defend myself. We came here, b

    Maggie’s pov Goddess, this clothing thing got out of hand. By the end of the day I had a whole new wardrobe. It was pretty expensive too, but I never spent money on clothing, so I think my parents wouldn’t mind. I wondered what people would say at school tomorrow. Was it a big enough change that they would notice? I know I shouldn’t care. I should just feel good about myself in these clothes, but I secretly hoped they would notice. Really, I hoped Rain would notice, even though just thinking it made me feel dumb. I saw how he only greeted Zuri. He didn’t say goodbye to me either and that should tell me enough. But for some reason it didn’t. Because I am a fool and that boy is too damn good looking. On Sunday I spent the day with my family. Mom made a bunch of pastries for lunch and we spent the day picnicking and having fun. Dad and I sparred, while mom and Delilah talked. They all complimented my new outfit, which felt nice. I’m happy I get these days with my family, I know not ev

    Roman’s pov “It worked! I can finally go on a date with Zuri.” I told Rain. I just go a text from Zuri that Maggie called her excited about her date with Ari tomorrow. Rain didn’t seem happy for me. He looked sad. Shit. “Sorry, man. I thought you were okay with this. But if you don’t want me to talk about Zuri with you, then I won’t. It’s just I never had to do so much work to get a date. I’ve been texting her all day and me and Zuri made sure Maggie was at the bakery when Ari got there, so he could ask her out. And thankfully he took the bait. Maybe it’s the make-over, I asked Zuri to go shopping with Maggie. Honestly, I should be a matchmaker. Okay, maybe I shouldn’t, because my first match was between you and Maggie and that failed.” I was waiting for Rain to say something and he didn’t so, I just kept on talking. What was up with him? Was he really that heartbroken? He didn’t even say anything to Zuri or Maggie during lunch and only talked to Rishi or me the whole week. He kept

    Aaro’s povI shouldn’t have said that, but it was the fucking truth. No matter how much this wasn’t Storm’s choice any more than it was mine, he was still going to mark me against my will. Maybe if things were different, then I would have chosen Storm as my mate.I always hoped I would find my true mate, but that ship had fucking sailed the moment I was bought. Maybe even before then—maybe the moment I was brought to the damn school. It didn’t fucking matter anyway.I saw how my remark hurt Storm, and all I could think of to make this better was to ask him to kiss me. I knew it fucking made me feel better. More than better. The orgasm he gave me was out of this fucking world, and I just wanted to make him feel good too.I didn’t know what the fuck I was doing, but he seemed to enjoy it, and to be honest, I was enjoying it too. I didn’t think having someone’s dick inside my mouth would be fun, but hearing Storm grunt and hold on to my hair and knowing I was the one doing it to him was a

    Storm’s povI knew if I got pissed off, Aaro would stop telling me the truth, so I let her talk while inside of me a storm was raging. I wanted to go to the school and kill everyone who ever hurt Aaro. I wanted to destroy the entire school and get everyone out, but I knew I couldn’t. I was a fucking hypocrite. My father had bought Aaro for me and had funded the school for years. I didn’t realize where part of our money was going until I checked the books today. Our pack had been giving money to the Goldacres for decades. How could I say I would destroy the school if I still profited from it? If it wasn’t for the school, I wouldn’t have met Aaro.I wanted to be Aaro’s home, her safe place. She deserved that. Despite the fucked up situation she was thrown into, she was trying to do things her own way. She could have ignored my mother like the rest, but instead she decided to learn Dutch. The thing that bonded me and mam together. If Aaro was smart, she would have sucked up to Dad and R

    Aaro’s povEve explained the phone to me, but I still felt like a fucking idiot using it. She was so patient with me, but I knew if others saw me fumbling with the phone, they’d think I was raised under a damn rock. Everyone used technology for everything, and I felt like I didn’t belong in this world.To be honest, I don’t belong here. I belong with my sister; I belong back home.But a part of me wished I did belong here. That I could give Storm what he deserved. He wanted a real person who didn’t have that many secrets, someone who could be themselves around him, and I wasn’t that at fucking all. I had to think before I spoke, because otherwise I could reveal the truth."I really am sorry, Aaro." Eve said again.I shook my head, "don’t be. I’ll be fine."Eve sighed, "it can be really hard sometimes, Aaro. I try to put on a brave face for Storm. I don’t want him to feel bad for me, but it’s really lonely for me. I miss my family and just having a life. Don’t get me wrong; if I had to

    Storm’s pov"Aaro is bijna klaar; douchen liep een beetje uit. [Aaro is almost done; the shower took a bit longer than expected.]Mam laughed, "Ik zie dat jij ook ging douchen? [I see you took a shower as well?] She ruffled my wet hair."Dus? [so?]""Niks. Ik ben blij voor je. Ze is speciaal vind je niet? Ik durf het bijna niet te zeggen, maar misschien is zij je, - [Nothing. I am happy for you. She’s special, isn’t she? I am almost too scared to say, but maybe she’s your, -] " I stopped my mom from finishing her sentence."Mam zeg het niet dan! Fuck, je weet zelf wat pap zou doen. [Then don’t say it! Fuck, you know what Dad would do.]"My mother knew better than anyone what my dad thought of true mates, considering she was his. Dad and mom fell in love when they were seventeen. Love at first sight, she called it, and then my grandfather got killed and my dad turned into a paranoid asshole. Too scared of what a true mate meant. He wasn't just scared of losing half his soul if his true

    Aaro’s povFucking phone. That stupid fucking phone. Phones didn’t used to be like this, were they? I remember mom and dad having a phone, and I sometimes watched videos on it or played a game. But this thing was totally different.I felt so fucking out of place. I knew nothing about this world. I guess that the school does this on purpose. Make sure to isolate the girls once they’re out of the school. Make sure we don’t know how to use technology to ask for help.We’re not supposed to tell anyone about the school, but even if we only wanted to help ourselves once we were out, we wouldn’t be able to. We had no one to turn to and no way to set up any support system. Maybe I should talk to Eve. She had been isolated, stuck inside this packhouse. She knows how it feels, and maybe she knows how to get out of here.I opened the stupid phone again, cursing at it."You better not fuck this up again. Send text to Eve.""Send text to Eve," the phone said."Do you want to join me and Storm for l

    Storm’s povI put Aaro on my lap and let her eat."So what’s her deal?" Cara asked, mind-linking me."What do you mean?""She seems nice, but is she like the rest? Does she want you because of your title?"I laughed, "no, she isn’t like the rest. Not at fucking all. I don’t think she cares about becoming Luna at all.""Did she have any say in coming here? Did her parents force her?"I sighed, "she’s an orphan. It’s fucking complicated Cara, but she doesn’t really have a choice. So I’m trying my fucking best to make everything not suck as fucking much."Cara smiled at me, "you want her to like you."Aaro started giving me bites to eat, and although it surprised me, I let her. It was fucking adorable that she cared enough to feed me."She likes you already. She was straddling you, and now she’s feeding you!" Cara shouted inside my head.That kiss was amazing. And when Aaro started moving her fucking hips, I went insane. If Cara hadn’t stopped us, I don’t know what would have happened. Wh

    Aaro’s povBrand was cool. He reminded me of my dad’s wolf, Logan. He was as fast as him, too. How would it feel to run as a wolf? Would I be that fast?It was easier around Brand because he didn’t talk to me and I didn’t have to pretend so hard.Even when I was myself, I still had to pretend. I couldn’t let anyone know my real name or identity. It wasn’t easy. I so badly wanted to tell Brand about Logan. I wanted to tell the girl in the orphanage more about Ero. And when we discussed our names, I really wanted to tell Peter what Aaro fucking stood for.It bothered me how scared everyone was. It was supposed to be like this. In my dad’s pack, people weren’t scared of us. And although my grandpa Os could be a bit scary, people respected him more than they feared him.Then he shifted back, and although Storm looked a lot better, like a whole fuckload better, I went back to pretending. Pretending that he didn’t look fucking good, and I wondered what it would feel like to touch him. Preten

    Storm’s povI tried to get some work done, but my mind kept wondering about tonight. What would be a good date idea?"Let me meet her," Brand said."And then what, have a picknick? It’s fucking freezing outside.""Please?" Brand asked and I think it was the first time he said please to me."I’ll see what I can do, okay, buddy?"Dad had given me her tracker information, and I felt like a fucking stalker, tracking Aaro’s moves. She went from the hospital to the orphanages, to lunch somewhere, and then to one of the elders' houses.When it was around four, I just gave up on working and decided to pick up Aaro early. I'm sure she'd appreciate it; I couldn't imagine spending the entire day with Ruby.I went to the O'Hares' home and watched as Aaro spoke to a young boy. He must be one of the grandkids or great-grandkids of the O'Hares. Mister O'Hare was 104 years old and looked no older than 70.When the boy saw me, he bowed his head and seemed scared. It was such an obvious contrast between

    Aaro’s povStupid fucking nightmare. I used to have them when we were younger. I would dream about Marco taking us away. We were asleep when he took us, but we woke up before he brought us to the man who transported us to the school.Doctor Marco had always been so kind to us, but suddenly he was cold. He ignored our cries, he ignored me begging him to let my sister go. In the end, he threatened to hurt Elora if I didn’t help him calm her down.He showed me bones and said they belonged to a girl, and if I didn't help my sister out of her pajamas and make her shut the fuck up, he could turn my sister into a bag of bones too.For years, I wondered what he needed the bones and the pajamas for. I thought he might have pretended it was one of us who died, so my parents wouldn’t come looking for us. Or my parents were dead themselves; there must have been a reason why they didn't find us. Auntie Kat was too smart to not see through Marco’s plan, I was sure. She was the smartest person alive;
