Ayla POV

I can’t help but watch Callan as he drives us to a mysterious destination. The way the sun catches in his hair makes him look heavenly. Excitement bubbles in my stomach at the idea of spending another day with this extraordinary man. He undid the top button of his shirt, rolling his head, and stretching his neck before pulling his tie loose. Did I make him just as nervous as he made me?

“So I know this might sound childish, but there’s a kite festival I thought we could go to.”

He turned to look at me, making my cheeks blush at being caught watching him, his lips curled up into a seductive smile that, if I were standing, would have made my knees weak.

“That sounds fun.”

We drove along the prom toward the town next to ours, turning toward the Victorian promenade there and parking. I got out of the car, zipping my coat up as the wind whipped around me.

“Let’s go pick a kite,” Callan said as he wrapped his arm around my neck.

I loved how he always held my hand or wrapped

    Callan POV I could feel the pit in my stomach grow heavy as I watched Ayla walk into the bar, it was getting harder to leave her. Each time I had to say goodbye to her, she took a piece of my heart with her. It took all of my strength to drive away, and the drive back home seemed to be the longest journey I had ever taken. I had a deep longing for Ayla and knew now that there was no going back, not for me, she was my everything now. I just hoped she could accept me once she found out who I really was. “Where’s Ayla?” Eric asked as I walked through the door alone. “She agreed to help out that friend of hers. What time do we have to meet Minister Robert?” “He’s coming here in an hour,” Micha announced as he looked at his watch. He held a beer out to me as he walked past, but I held my hand up and shook my head. I was seeing Ayla again at 9, and I wouldn’t jeopardise the chance to see her by drinking and not being able to drive, plus I wanted to make sure I had a clear head from no

    Callan POV *No, I wouldn’t tell him that Callan.* my mother answered. “Do you mind if I take a look at this fairy circle, maybe there’s something we are missing?” The Minister asked. “Of course. I have an archaeologist there who specialises in ancient structures. She also happens to be a wolf, so she can help you.” “Thank you, Alpha Callan,” Minister Robert said. Alister’s lips pinched together, his eyes narrowed as he glared at the Minister. I glanced at my watch, noticing it was almost time to collect Ayla. “If we’re done here, we have somewhere we need to be.” Micha and Eric both stood up, knowing I needed them to go with me now so Alister wouldn’t become suspicious. He stormed toward the door, crashing his shoulder into me as he passed. *I'm sorry son, I love you.* Mum said as she gently cupped my cheek. I didn’t blame her for telling Alister, he would have beat the shit out of Freya if she hadn’t, and I would never wish that on my baby sister. *It's OK mum, I understan

    Ayla POV The air in the room was so intense it was stifling, I could feel the electricity brushing against my skin from the built-up sexual tension between me and the god sitting beside me. All I could think about was how I wanted to run my tongue along his delectable body and let him ravish me, but even now, after what just happened between us in that bar, he was still a gentleman and insisted we take this thing between us slowly instead of letting me live out all my fantasies involving him, which just made me love him all the more, and that scared me, I was falling hard and fast for this man. “Are you sure you're not going to get fired?” I asked Nicola one more time. “As much as my boss is a scumbag, he also knows that what that guy did was bang out of order. He’s just glad your boyfriend didn’t kick the shit out of him.” I glanced up at Callan, who had a smirk slapped across his face. I shook my head at him, but even when he was cocky, he was still breathtakingly handsome. I le

    Ayla POV Callan sat beside me, his hand reached across the small space and grabbed mine. His thumb ran across my knuckles, sending pleasant tingles up and down my arm. I stretched my neck out trying to get some focus, but his touch was distracting, all I wanted to do was pounce on him. Callan knew what he was doing to me. I could see his sly smile as his fingers trailed along my skin. I reached across and grabbed him by his shirt and smashed my lips onto his, his hands grabbed a hold of my face and I could feel his fingers moving through my hair. His tongue pushed into my mouth and danced against my tongue. I felt him pulling me up off my chair and sitting me down on his lap. I wrapped my hand around his neck as I deepened the kiss. My whole body felt like it was on fire. I pulled away panting. “You drive me crazy.” He whispered as he rested his forehead against mine. I knew exactly how he felt, all I wanted was him, he had only just come into my life, but I was consumed by him,

    Ayla POV “I am so disappointed in you, Ayla.” I stop, frozen in fear as the man I now know as Runduc strolls out of my bedroom as if he owns the place. “Do you like the flowers?” He asked, glancing at the bluebells sitting on the counter. “I picked them especially for you.” I took a step back, freeing my body from its shock. My legs felt weak as if my body was too heavy for them to support any longer, but I knew I had to run. I spun around, darting for the door, but Runduc was unnaturally fast. He stood in front of me, blocking my only way of escaping, making me yelp in surprise at his sudden appearance. “What do you want?” I asked as I backed away from the tall man, moving closer to the kitchen. “I told you what I want, Ayla. I want your magic. I am going to drain every single drop of it from your body.” “I don’t know what you mean, I don’t have any magic,” I cried. “Yet, but you will soon.” I felt the kitchen drawer handle dig into my back, and knew I was close to

    Callan POV I knew life was too good for me at the moment, I had been sucked into an Ayla-sized bubble and was excited to wake up every day just so I could see her. My life now had a purpose other than becoming Alpha. I could see a future full of happiness and love, I could see myself and Ayla with a little family and I couldn’t wait. I should have known that at any given moment my happiness would come crashing down around me. When Minister Robert told me of Alister's plans to marry Freya to the Alpha of The Rabidcrest Pack, I never thought it would be so soon, plans had to be made, deals and pacts had to be made and everyone involved had to agree. I thought I had more time to stop Alister’s seeded little plan, but I had never been more wrong in my life. “I’m glad to see so many faces today, I have an important announcement to make.” The tosser declared as he stood at the front of the house looking at all of the pack's warriors as they gathered ready for training. He emitted an extr

    Callan POV My mouth felt dry as I looked at all the heads of the pack warriors who were now looking to me to lead them. A dull thump began to drum against my temple as a heaviness settled on my stomach. “Stand up. You can all go home for the day, we will begin training again tomorrow.” I declared. “Can I talk to you for a minute?” I whispered to the Minister and my mother. The warriors of the pack were leaving the field. Some of them left in the direction of the forest, but most went into the pack house to get ready for the day. I could hear the minister and my mother following behind me. I made my way into one of the private studies my grandfather used. I knew that it was safe here to speak freely. Most of the rooms were made of solid brick and stone but also soundproofed so no one could eavesdrop. “What is it?” My mum asked. “I can’t be the Alpha yet, I have to make sure I stay close to.” I stopped realising the Minister didn’t know. “Who?” He asked. “He has a mate, a tr

    Callan POV A heaviness settled in my stomach trying to pull me down, Micha turned to look at me, his eyes wide with disbelief at what Pedro had just told us. Alister had escaped his cell, and he would be coming for me and everything I loved. “We’re on our way back now!” I ground out, this morning just kept going from bad to worse. The forest around the pack house was swarming with wolves, all looking for the bastard I called father. I found myself scanning every inch of the wooded area hoping to find the son of a bitch. A guard opened the side gate, letting us inside the territory. As I walked past the guard I stopped as it occurred to me that maybe he had helped Alister escape. He could have slipped down into the dungeon and helped Alister out of his cell, then let him out of this very gate. The guard lowered his head, baring his neck to me. *Callan cool it.* Micha grunted. I felt myself being pushed gently on the back. I stepped past the guard, pulling back all the rage I had

    Ayla POV Callan’s voice was like velvet. I never thought of a man’s voice as being soothing, but his voice was just that; just one word from him and my whole body uncoiled, and his touch ignited a wildfire of warmth that smouldered throughout my body. Every nerve felt like it had been caressed with pure ecstasy. “I saw Queen Duscellis; she said I have to save the nymphs.” His arms around me loosened, but they remained wrapped around me, which I was glad of. I enjoyed being tangled up in Callan. “Queen Duscellis?” He asked. His brows pulled together, making his forehead furrow, and the urge to protect myself suddenly overwhelmed my thoughts, but Queen Duscellis wasn’t a threat to me. I quickly shook those thoughts out of my head and looked up into Callan’s eyes. “She is the queen of the dryads. She told me I would come into my power now and that Runduc would feel it. She said wolves and nymphs have always protected each other and that you are my protector. She told me that she

    Ayla POV Excruciating pain shot through my neck, burning my skin and seeping into my veins. With every pump of my heart, it felt like acid moving through my body, scalding my body from the inside. My skin felt itchy, and all I wanted to do was scratch until I was a bloody mess and free from the painful prickle. I squeezed my eyes closed, silently praying for the pain to ease when suddenly I felt nothing. My body felt weightless, like I was floating above the world. I opened my eyes so I could look at Callan and reassure him I was ok; his voice sounded panicked. As my eyes blinked open, I glanced around confused. I was standing in front of the tree, the mystical tree with the twisted trunk in the forest beside the flats. The grass felt soft beneath my bare feet, and I could feel a soft breeze brushing against my skin, bringing with it the sweet scent of flowers. Above me, I could hear the wind blowing through the large leaves of the magnificent tree, creating a soft rustle that mad

    Callan POV This was supposed to be a moment in time that I would cherish for the rest of my life. I had a true mate, chosen by the moon goddess herself, and she wanted to be mine just as much as I wanted her. She chose to entwine her life with mine, making me feel complete; she had chosen to stay with me until our hearts beat as one for the last time, and I couldn’t have been happier. I had spent hours picturing the moment when I finally got to place my mark on Ayla’s neck; even when I tried to fight against our bond, I still couldn’t stop the fantasies of the moment I officially made her mine. This was supposed to be special. A magical moment when our souls connected as one. This is supposed to be one of the most memorable moments of our lives, but I never thought it would be memorable for this reason. She let out a chilling scream as my teeth pierced her neck. Her body went limp, and her head rolled forward, resting against my shoulder. “Ayla! AYLA!” I shouted, shaking her slightl

    Ayla POV Callan leaned over me, capturing my lips in a searing kiss. This kiss was harder than before; it made my head spin and my heart race. He pulled me up off the bed and abruptly pulled his lips away from mine; my chest heaved as I tried to catch my breath. His lips curled up into a sulty smile as he ran his hand up my arms, sending pleasant shivers through me as he skilfully slipped his T-shirt up and over my head. “You are so beautiful.” He whispered as he cupped my cheek and tilted my head to the side, his lips pressed against my neck, and Callan moved down, leaving a trail of soft kisses and small explosions of pleasure. I let my head roll to the side as I bit down on my lip again to stop my moan. His hand grazed across my cheek, his thumb gently tugging on my lip, freeing it from my teeth. I opened my eyes to find his rich brown eyes staring into mine. “I want to hear every moan you have for me.” He grunted before kissing my lips hard. My head began to spin, but I di

    Ayla POV I hated feeling so needy as I watched Callan leave the room, but I needed him more than I needed my next breath. The front door clicked shut, and as soon as I was alone, the walls around me began to close in. My breathing became laboured as all the air began to leave the room, and I found myself hyperventilating, desperately trying to suck air into my mouth. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and began to count to 10 slowly in my head, but I became distracted by the mouthwatering smell of Callan’s aftershave that filled the air in his bedroom. I hadn’t noticed it before, but now the smell was overpowering and so calming. I knew I was safe in here, but I couldn’t help but feel safer when Callan was with me, when his hand was touching mine or when his arms were wrapped around me, shielding me from the world, his touch seemed to calm all the raging storms that flurried around inside my head. When my eyes fluttered open, they landed on his T-shirt, which was lying on the f

    Micha’s POV The penthouse is eerily quiet without Callan or Eric; growing up in a pack, I was used to being surrounded by people, and as soon as Ayla becomes Luna, I will move back into the pack house and say goodbye to this sweet bachelor pad and the quiet life I was still unaccustomed to. Waking up every morning without the hustle and bustle of the pack getting ready for the day was still taking some getting used to, but I will miss the peace of not being needed and my late-night booty calls. *I’m almost there.* Callan informs me just as the toaster pops up, filling the penthouse with the first sound I've heard all morning other than myself. I grab my toast and shove it into my mouth while grabbing my phone, keys, and wallet and shove them into my pocket. The door below me slams shut, and I know Ayla has just left for work. *Ayla is on the move; I’m right behind her though.* *Thank you, Micha.* I bounce down the steps, chewing on the toast, when the bottom door opens and Mr

    Ayla POV “Marcus, what are you doing here?” My stomach felt like it was plummeting to the earth; chills ran down my spine as Marcus emerged from the shadows; the darkness seemed to shroud him, and the air in the garage felt cold, making goosebumps ripple across my skin. His usual perfect hair was dishevelled, and his bright blue eyes looked dark and demented; large dark circles encased his eyes, making them look sunken into his face; his smooth, clean-shaven jaw was coated with a dark beard that looked scraggly and unkempt; and his expensive clothes that he took great pride in keeping pristine looked wrinkled with ketchup and gravy stains down his front. If I saw him down the street and I didn’t know how vein he was, I would have thought he had been sleeping in them for a few days. A sour taste filled my mouth as my eyes darted around the garage and the dread of knowing we were alone hit me. “Ayla, I miss you; please come back.” I had never been afraid of Marcus, but right no

    Ayla POV I felt paralysed; fear had taken hold of my body, and I was unable to move. The room was dark, so dark I couldn’t even see my hand in front of my face, but I could see his eyes; they peered out from the darkness burning into my soul. His raspy breathing echoed all around me, and my heart pounded hard against my chest. I could hear the sound of his bones creaking as he stepped out of the darkness, the ceiling stretched up or I shrunk in size, because Runduc looked like a giant now; his face was gaunt and his skin a deathly white, but his eyes glowed brightly, like searchlights seeking me out. His bony fingers reached out toward me; they moved like vines as they weaved their way toward me. All I could do was watch as his vine-like fingers coiled around my feet, tightening as they moved up my body, engulfing me. “Hey, it’s ok. It was just a bad dream. I’m here.” As I jumped up, I felt his arms wrapping around me. I had never felt as safe as I did in his arms in my entire life

    Eric POV Now… The door to the living room opened, and Callan walked back in after taking Ayla to his old bedroom. Even though he was beside himself with Freya being attacked, I could tell that having Ayla here made him happy, and he deserved some happiness after a lifetime of abuse. He could concentrate fully on Freya knowing Ayla was safe because this part of the pack house was for the high-ranking members of the pack; no members of the pack were allowed in this part of the house unless invited, meaning we had total privacy and no one would disturb Ayla. Cora had just had the room redecorated, removing all traces of Alister. The furniture had been dumped and new furniture was arriving soon, meaning we only had the floor to pace whilst we waited, but I didn’t mind; moving helped my mind from slipping back to that dreadful moment of finding Freya beaten and bloodied on the forest floor. Callan cleared his throat, making my legs stop moving to look at him. “Do we know what happened
