Adrenaline coursed through my veins as Marian and I dashed out of the room. I placed the bottle with Eve's blood safely in my bag. I turned back, half expecting to find Eve behind us. I wouldn't be surprised. Hanson warned me about how powerful her species were. We left the hotel and walked farther
ACE'S POV The forest raced by in a blur of coloirs as I ran as fast as I could. The sound of my pounding footsteps echoed through the trees. Marian clung to my back. Her arms were wrapped tightly around my neck. Her breath was warm against my skin. I could hear her ragged breaths get slower and mo
ACE'S POVThe deafening roar of the explosion echoed in my ears. I looked at the scene before me in shock. I couldn't believe what just happened. For a moment, I wished I was dreaming. I gripped the bottle tighter in my hands. It was a cruel reminder of the tragedy and sacrifice that just occurred.
ACE'S POV. I felt more aggravated by the second as I stared at Mia. I reached out for the lock on the cell but to my surprise, there wasn't one. The cell was unlocked. I quickly opened the cell and rushed towards Mia. Just as I was about to reach out to touch her, something like an invisible barri
ACE'S POV I tried shaking Mia gently but it was no use. She was unresponsive. I touched her hands, trying to feel a pulse but it was so faint. I could barely feel anything. Fear crept into my heart. I hoped she was okay. I worried about her and the child in her stomach. Beside me, Kylie looked at
ACE'S POVThe feeling of dread filled me at her words. I could see the malice in her eyes and in the tone of her voice. She didn't seem like she was bluffing. No matter what it took, I had to get Mia out of here. The crackling energy of Kylie's magic surged towards me once more in a torrent of pow
MIA'S POVThe world seemed to slow down as I watched the scene unfold before me. My heart pounded loudly in my chest. Everything seemed to move in slow motion when Ace fell to the ground. It felt surreal seeing someone so strong become so limp in a matter of seconds. Kylie's magic had been aimed at
I lunged at Kylie. In a split second I was in front of her. As if expecting my attack, Kylie managed to vanish and appear at the other side of the room. She chanted spells aimed at me. The air crackled with magic as Kylie's incantations filled the chamber. I didn't feel a thing. She might as well h
The pack was still filled with laughter and cheers as I left. The guards kept stopping me on my way back, telling me how grateful they were that I killed Jax. Some even spoke about making me their leader but I wasn't interested. I just wanted to lay down and sleep. We would figure out the rest tomor
I closed my eyes, focusing on my powers. I could feel the strong energy coursing through my veins. I summoned my powers and directed them to Jax with the intent of controlling his body.

HANNAH'S POV Jenna, Lucy and I moved through the pack with ease. The guards patrolling didn't suspect is because we were dressed just like them. We moved quickly, doing our best to avoid suspicion. From the guards' conversation, I believed I had an idea where Mia's husband might be imprisoned. I l

I looked at the guard in shock. He was awake.... And he looked furious. "You have to run" Hannah whispered "Run or he'll capture you just like the rest of us" Run? That's not an option. If I run, who's going to rescue them? I'll stay here and fight. Luckily for me, it was only one guard in the cav
MIA'S POVI sat on the floor, crouched behind a thick tree. My heart was heavy with grief. The sound of Max's agonizing screams lingered in my mind. His sacrifice will be stuck in my mind forever. He was so selfless. We barely even knew each other yet he was willing to risk his life to save me. That
I sat in my usual spot on the forest grounds. I stared into space as I thought of my mate. I wondered why I hadn't felt an excruciating pain in my chest. I knew that when one's mate dies, the person usually has chest pain for days due to the mate bond being totally severed. Ace's image haunted me. I
MIA'S POV.I,sat in the darkness of the woods. My heart was heavy with grief. The guard who had helped me escape from Jax sat beside me. His eyes were watchful and I could tell that his senses were on alert. He had patrolled the grounds repeatedly, looking for any sign of danger. He took his loyalt
MIA'S POVI struggled against the guard's grip. My eyes remained fixed on the door as I was dragged away from the room. I needed to know if Ace was okay, if he was still fighting. I strained my ears, listening for any sound, for any hint that he was still alive. I was worried. I knew how powerful Ja
