Jayven’s POV

Tia and I hadn’t spoken in two days, not like I was counting. I avoided her whenever I felt her drawing close to me, it was childish and silly but my wolf and I were hurt.

Her words kept me awake most nights. Was I wrong for wanting to take some of the burden off her shoulders? I was fully aware she was the Alpha, but I was her Beta; her second-in-command. Did that mean nothing?

I felt her probing our link every night, but I kept it shut, staying away from the bedroom as well. Fucking like rabbits was not going to make things right. My nether region did not agree with me.

Slade hadn’t returned, that knowledge pissed Tia off and had me worried. It wasn’t like my best friend to be incommunicado for so long. I wanted to go in search of him, but that required seeing Tia and I didn’t want to.

I tried reaching out to him through the mind-link everyday, but it was always quiet on his end, meaning he was still far away from the pack. I felt his bond pulse strongly in my chest and

    Zanna/Tia's PoVMy shoulders tensed as he walked behind me, taking slow breaths as if he was careful not to come close to me. Once we had disappeared into the halls, away from the eyes of the Slade and the rest of the gammas, I let out a sigh of frustration and turned to face Vyn. "What are we going to do, Vyn?" I asked, feeling the tension tighten in my chest. "The only lead we had to the people trying to kill me does no longer exist." I pressed my lips into a thin line, eyes falling to the ground in turmoil. My head conjured numerous devastating thoughts. To think we were already close to finding out the truth. "Were we?" Tia asked in my head, and I responded with a snort, totally ignoring her. Vyn sighed, stopping a few steps away from me. "I'm sorry, Alpha. I wished we had done better. If only I was around, maybe he wouldn't have been able to get that far." I scratched my brows, wondering what Tia had gotten herself into that her life was on the line. Regrets washed over, an

    I nodded. I wasn't meant to seek her advice, and Tia was currently warning me against it in my head, but I didn't have a choice. Since my own solution wasn't working, I was hoping I could get something tangible from Lyra. "What does a maid know?" Tia asked, and then proceeded to add, "An Omega like herself." My throat constricted, and it squeezed my heart, making it ache in my chest. "What do you mean by an omega like herself?" I repeated her question, but with one of my own. My skin crawled at Tia's choice of words, knowing fully well about what I was before I was killed. "You know what I mean. This is something I would never have done if I was alive, but you're doing them," Tia snapped, and I could feel her annoyance seeping into my pores. "Do you know I was just an omega like her?" I asked Tia, gripping hard on the cup beside me. "Okay, I don't know. Do you think you'd want to hear the advice I give?" Lyra asked, and I nodded my head. "I know, but you were a Luna. You weren'

    Jayven's PoVMy wolf whined as I walked away from her. He yearned to be beside her, tending to her needs and wrapping his love like a shroud around her, but no, I wouldn't let him or myself do that after how she addressed us. I thinned my lips, making my way down the hall. I could feel her eyes grazing my skin like a rake, but she had drawn the line. How could she order me to stand down like I was one of those omegas or workers under he? Who was I kidding? I sighed, raking fingers through my hair. I was working under her. I was to answer to her call because she was my Alpha. I still had the right to be upset because all I wanted was her good. With a heavy sigh, I decided to mentally shove the issue aside and focus on that of Kurtis. The sounds of car doors jamming shut reached my ears. They were probably about to leave the packhouse to the hospital. I hastened my pace to make it to them on time. Arriving outside, I met Slade about to hop into one of the cars. "Wait," I said, an

    "What is that?" I asked, staring at the green thing that was sitting in the transparent bag. "It is a poisonous plant that only blooms in the shadows," she explained. "Once bitten hard on or dissolved and drank, it causes immediate death."I digested all that she said, still observing the chewed up plant. "But there is a problem," the doctor said, and I lifted my head to take a gander of her face as she spoke. My heart skipped a beat. What was she about to say? I hoped it wouldn't be anything like those who had had contact with him would die or something. "What is it?" I heard Slade ask with worry, but worry wasn't the only thing I could detect from his voice. I turned to look at him, noticing the way he looked at her like she was the only thing that mattered in the world. "Tell us," I said, returning my gaze to the doctor. "You said he was locked up in the dungeon throughout the time you captured him, and he was alive, right?" She inquired, steepling her fingers atop the tabl

    We dropped from the cars while we sent the rest of the men back home, only leaving two with us. "What do you think about reincarnation?" Sonya asked. I hummed, stroking my chin in reasoning as we walked into the restaurant. The sweet aroma of food slid into my nose, and I ran my tongue over my lips. I needed to eat something. My stomach grumbled. "I think it does exist. I have read a few books on them," Slade said as we took our seat with me sitting opposite Slade and Slade beside Sonya.. "What about you, Vyn?" I frowned slightly, wondering how I didn't notice that he was interested in Sonya. Was I that blind to not have seen this? "I don't know," I shrugged, and the waitress dropped three menus in front of us. "I've never thought about it before. Maybe it doesn't exist. Maybe it is just a lore." I felt a gaze burning my forehead, and I looked up to see a girl with frizzy black hair staring at me from the end of the restaurant. She averted her gaze from my face, now glancing ba

    "Woah, woah!" I gripped the waitress' shoulder and pulled her up. "What the hell are you doing?" "I just want to have you," she said desperately, but I could see something else beneath that desperation. She was afraid, but what was she scared of? "How, why?" I asked, searching her eyes for answers with confusion wrapping around my head like a shroud. "Do you even know who I am?" "Yes, I know who you are, and I want you to fill me up with your dick," she said, rubbing my chest with her fingers and pinching my nipples. I pushed her hands away from me, clenching my jaw with a stern look directed at her. "Who sent you to me?" She shrugged, shaking her head as she took a step closer to me. "No one. I just want to have you for myself and see if what was said about was right." My brows kissed each other into a deep frown as I tried to comprehend the words that had just slipped out of her mouth. "What do you mean by what you just said?" I eyed her, confusion tossing me around like a ra

    "What?" Slade frowned, staring intensely at Marcy. "Who is Lyra, and what the hell?" "Please, don't kill me," Marcy begged, and fear flashed in her eyes like it was rooted deep in her soul. "I didn't know you were married. She said you were single and had the sweetest dick she had ever asked.""Keep talking before I get my hands on you," I snarled, gesturing with my fingers elevated close to her neck. "Fast!"She flinched, and a tear slid out of her eye. Oh, so she could be this scared, yet she didn't mind accepting to do something as stupid as this?My phone vibrated in my pocket, and I sensed it was Sonya calling to enquire about why we were taking so long to leave the bathroom. "She said she would pay me to have sex with you and get it on camera," Marcy revealed, trembling with her hands raised in surrender. "I asked her why, but she didn't say a word to me about the reason. She just asked me to comply or she would do something grave to me." Shit! That fucking bastard! She want

    Zanna/Tia's PoVThe sounds of the car doors closing tugged at my attention, prompting me to rise from my seat. I headed to the window and shifted the blinds to the left to give myself small access to see what was going on. Vyn stood with his back turned against me. He was speaking to Slade, and I tried to read Slade's lips to know what it was that they were talking about. I couldn't. Slade's eyes flicked to the window, and I moved away, hoping he didn't see me or he would alert Vyn. After a few seconds, I looked again and saw that Slade was no longer looking in my direction. "Is it your mate?" Lyra asked, and I felt like we were beginning to bond over this. "Yeah. Are you sure I shouldn't talk to him?" I inquired, eyeing his physique as he stood tall and bold. If only I could wrap my arms around him and tell him how sorry I was to have hurt him in such a manner. "No, just let him be. Men feel very important when they are being begged. Once he sees how much you seek for his forg

    Zanna/Tia's povTia growled loudly in my head, hitting the mental barrier that kept her restrained. “Let me out of here, right now!”“Calm the fuck down!” It was rare for me to snap, but she was trying to split my head open. “You’re going to go into a rampage if I let you out, and we don’t even know who’s building yet.”Tia huffed, and resumed her pacing. “The wall was erected for this very reason, whoever they are can’t claim they didn’t see it. It’s a deliberate act, and I want the head of whoever built this thing on my land.”“I’m sure we’ll figure it out soon, but I need you to promise to stay calm. I cannot fight you and the trespasser.” I massaged my temples. “Please, Tia.”She turned in my head, mentalling backing me. “Fine.”I would deal with her drama later. For now, I needed to find out what was going on, and who we would be fighting against.“Do we know anything about the person who’s encroaching on our property?” I asked Jayven, who was sniffing around the area.“I don’t s

    Tia’s povI stared at my bedroom door, transfixed on the man’s shadow seeping into my room through the space underneath the door. I knew exactly who was standing there and I prayed to the goddess that he would knock.I stopped myself several times from ripping the door open and pulling him in. I missed my mate, I missed his scent. I missed him in my space, I missed everything about him, and I hated this insignificant rift between us.Jayven walked away after standing in front of my door for so long, and I fell onto my bed, screaming my frustration into the pillows.Why was he making it so hard for us? All I needed was an olive branch- or a goddamn leaf. I wanted him to make an effort before I made one, was that too much to ask?“I don’t know if this is the right time to intrude on your thoughts” Tia’s sarcastic voice made me roll my eyes.“What do you have to say oh wise shaman?” I placed an arm over my face, “If you’re going to berate me like you always do, I’ll plead with you to ple

    Jayven’s PovI swallowed the sigh of relief when I saw a guard standing in front of my door with his hand in the air as if he wanted to knock again. He saluted the moment he saw me.“Good evening, Beta.”“Good evening.” I stuck my head out of my door, and looked from left to right. There was no one else there. “What can I help you with? Is there a problem?”He shook his head, “One of the town’s representatives came by and refused to leave without seeing the Alpha, I told him she was indisposed and now he won’t leave without seeing you.”“What could the town representatives want at this late hour?” It was a rhetorical question, “Tell him I’ll be down soon, let me step into the bathroom,”“I’ll wait here Beta. If I leave without you, he might start trouble or hound me to death with questions.”I smiled at the guard and closed the door. I should have hopped into the shower after Slade left, but I was too tired to, and I had no idea I would be meeting anyone else tonight.A sniff under my

    Jayven's PovI was going to create a new path in my former room with my pacing, but my thoughts were all over the place. I grabbed a handful of my hair and pulled until it hurt my scalp. How did I get so sloppy? I wondered how Lyra had cornered me once again into her games.How had she sent those two girls to implicate me? My mind turned over every possibility. How had she gotten the idea to pay a woman to seduce me? The worst part was the plan to get a video of me showing the intimate moment we shared. I punched the wall, gritting my teeth. How did I find myself back here? Her web was pulling me into a dark place.“Are you trying to break the house down?” Slade's voice rang from the doorway, and I turned to see him frowning at me and the fist sized hole in the wall.I ignored him, too lost in my head and my thoughts. I was drowning in my head to be bothered about the wall.“Look, I don’t know what’s wrong but I can see there’s something. If you are upset about Tia, the truth is I

    Lyra’s pov“A little help, please.” The doctor glared at me over her shoulder. “We need to clean her up, help me carry her to the bathroom. Her pulse is weak but steady.”I stepped into the room with my hand over my nose, eyeing Dina’s crumpled body with disgust. “Can’t I get someone else to help with this? I feel like I’m going to throw up.”The doctor stared at me in disbelief. “Aren’t you supposed to be her sister? I’m asking you to help me; she might get worse if we don’t attend to her now. Grab her ankles.” Of course the bitch would want me to grab the legs, giving me a great view of the mess Dina had made. I hated the plan for going so well. Why didn’t Dina stumble into the hall and shit herself to death? Or better still do all the shitting in her room?The doctor and I managed to get her in the bathtub. “Her clothes have to go. I need to run down to the clinic to get what I need to treat her.”“What?” I managed to keep my voice low. “I thought you said we were going to do thi

    Lyra’s pov“What the fuck did you do?” I jumped off my bed, watching my well drafted plan stain my rug. “That is going to be fucking hard to wash out.”Dina jumped at the sound of my voice. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to drop the plate, it just slipped from my fingers.”I squeezed my eyes closed, stopping myself from throttling her. “It’s fine, Dina. You’re still recovering. I’ll go check if there’s another plate for you.”“No, it’s fine.” Dina stepped in front of me, blocking my exit. “I don’t want to stress you like that. I’ll survive on water for the rest of the day. I’ll eat after the doctor’s re-examination.”“But you haven’t eaten anything since morning, aren’t you supposed to test out your strength with the doctor? If she rules you out, then you won’t be able to resume.”Dina frowned, “You’re correct, Lyra. I’ll go downstairs to get a new plate for myself, I feel really bad for stressing you this way.” Dina opened the mini fridge in my room, and pulled out a bottle of water.“

    Lyra’s PovDina stepped out of the room gracefully, and I cut off a snarl that was climbing out of my throat. I had always hated the way she did everything without stress; she glided into rooms like a queen walking on air.I stood rooted to my spot, biting my thumb. I hated the fluidity between Tia and Dina, and to top it off our Alpha was behaving weirdly. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it and my eyes roamed over her as she laid comfortably on the bed. There were so many plans playing over in my head and all those plans would not move forward if Dina returned to her post. I needed to remove her permanently from her spot and fast before she fully returned. “Why are you still standing there?” Tia’s soft voice snapped me out of my murderous thoughts. “If you’re wondering, I am not upset about the ashes; we’ll buy a new vase to replace the ashes- what’s left of it.”“Thank you, Alpha.” I bowed my head. “I was extremely worried about that disturbing incident, especially since you hav

    Lyra’s PovMy throat constricted, burning with each saliva I swallowed down. I nursed my neck, feeling my tears stinging my eyelids. I eyed him, my chest rising and falling as I thought about ways to make him pay for what he just did. Nobody threatened or hurt me. I always got away with things just like I did when I was much younger before I was sent away from my pack, and I was lucky enough to have been taken in by the Solaria pack. Jayven raked his eyes over my body from head to toe with contempt in his eyes. He hissed, averting his gaze and turning to comb his fingers through his hair. "Leave before I make it your last breath," he said with venom dripping down his voice. Gritting my teeth, I picked up the last of dignity and walked out of the room. I caressed my neck, hoping it would ease the pain I felt. My ears perked up when I heard the sounds of Tia's cub growling from the other side of the hallway. "Shu!" I heard a familiar voice trying to usher the cub away. "Don't do

    Lyra’s PoVWhat? Dina was back? I was hoping she'd stay there for a longer time. Why was she back so soon. Skye dashed out of the study, and the head maid jolted a little as shoved out of the way for Skye. "Oops!" I exclaimed, holding my cheeks as I looked back at Alpha Tia with fake apology. "I'll go get him." "He's such a bundle of joy," Tia said as I walked out of the study. "Skye!" I exclaimed, scanning the entire hallway for the little cub that was warming its way into everyone's heart. "Come out, come out wherever you are!" Why did Dina get better? I needed to act fast. I needed to look for another way to keep her out of the Alpha's life. I didn't want to leave when I was just getting started. When I had initially gone into Tia's study, thinking she was alone and might need her fur-baby to cheer her up, I was elated to have seen Slade seated beside her. A devilish smile gripped the sides of my lips. She was following my advice, and I was happy to see that. I should apply
