Hurt:“Cabin.” was the only thing Rhett said the whole ride back. Luke kept looking over at him. How he was remaining completely calm and still worried about Luke. He hadn't even begun to think about what Waverly was doing.Waverly. Shit he thought the world was falling apart all around him and there was only one of him. He glanced back over to Rhett who then let out an annoyed side.``What are you waiting for me to explode?” Rhett asked him, annoyed.“Maybe..honestly i am surprised you didn't wolf out and let Hendrix go all claws and fangs….i am saying it as your best friend so don't go all claws and teeth on me k.” Luke said, making a defensive face at Rhett.Rhett let out a long sigh as he pressed his head against the window. Luke was right to worry. He was worried most of the time with Hendrix’s recent mood swings.“Hendrix is ….implusives sometimes especially when it comes to Aldric. But I can reason with him. For the most part.” Rhett said quietly.Luke nodded in silence filli
Rejection:The pain was overwhelming, it was almost making hsi vision blur. He reached for the door, his hand shaking as every small touch of his skin felt like needles piercing it. Even the night breeze stung. He grabbed the door handle wincing as he turned the knob forcing the door open and stepping into the house. “Luke!” Rhett’s voice yelled up the stairs, he was doubling over as pain coursed through his body. Rhett almost crashed to the floor as he screamed Luke’s name. He made his way over the railing of the stairwell and hung on for life. Waverly was about to say something snarky but she realized quickly that Rhett was in pain. Luke got up off the ground quickly and almost tripped hurrying down the stairs. Rhett was doubled over grabbing a hold of the stairs railing. ‘What? What’s going?'' Luke said, rushing to his side.“I don't there’s pains everywhere. My wrist, my ankles, my whole body is burning like acid.” Rhett said confused and in pain. Another wave of pain hit Rhe
Hollow Ache: Satine was pacing nervously across the basement floor waiting for Bronx to come back. She needs more Wolfs bane to ensure if he did wake up he wouldn't be coming up fighting. He was taking far too long; she was going to have to speed this up. She grabbed the vials of liquid wolfsbane and mistletoe and brought it over to Aldric. Satine debated for a second how she was going to do this as she watched his chest rise and fall. She leaned over him and pinched his nose shut. She waited several seconds which felt like minutes and finally his mouth fell open. Easy enough she thought. She unplugged the amber vital and began to slowly pour the liquid into his mouth. Lucky for her his body reacted and began swallowing. She could hear the sizzle of it as it hit his tongue. She cringed thinking of what the liquid must be doing to his insides as it made his way down to his stomach. He still didn't react . He was completely numb and in a coma state still. It was the most confusing
RitualSatine watched his body twitch as she glanced nervously at the sky light. The moonlight was touching the outer rim. She could see it starting to trickle in through it. Any minute now she would be able to complete the ritual. The moon light was tinted a blood red representing the blood moon. Aldric had begun to act aggressively, his body twitching and flexing like he was trying to fight something. His skin sizzled against the wolf bane soaked ropes holding him in place. Satine's stomach curled into itself as she began fidgeting in her spot, her brain trying to come up with what she would do if he woke up. She was nervous that the wolf bane ropes wouldn't hold him. The liquid should have kept him completely under and separate from his wolf. She watched as his wolf claws emerged from the tips of his fingers. Her mind yelling no, his fangs began to descend how was this happening. Then all at once his body slumped as if something had happened. She watched his body respond like a su
Forever: “He’s not waking up.” Rhett’s voice cracked as he stared at Aldric, his eyes for a brief moment flickering to Luke before looking back at Aldric. “It says wolf baine ash reverse wolfe bane. I don't know.” Luke said, his voice a little defeated. “Maybe it wasn’t enough, maybe it has to equal out what she gave him. He drank it so it was liquid. I'll just do it again.” Luke said the words falling out of his mouth in a hurry. ‘You need to wake up.” Rhett said, putting his hand on Aldric’s chest. “He’’l wake up, we will figure this out.” Luke said firmly and began flipping through Satine’s book at the same time as throwing more wolfsbane into the bowl. He felt a warmth coming from his hand as he touched Aldric. He remembered a time before when he was hurt and Aldric healed him. He said something about fated mates. Aldric placed both hands on Aldric’s chest and closed his eyes, focusing on healing thoughts. He pretends he is pulling the poison out of Aldric’s body with his h

This book is not for everyone and can be triggers to some. * Rogues: Rogues! The mindlink pierced Aldric’s brain. Panic set in as he ran towards the front door of the pack house. He hit the bright red button on the wall next to the door. Metal steel came down over the windows and back door of the packhouse. Aldric threw the pack door open, running out it as quickly as he could. He only had minimum warriors left. He didn't know if they could survive another attack. Women, children and elderly get to the pack house as quickly as you can. We're locking down. He mindlinked the pack. They all knew the drill, he could see them running across the field to the pack house. The few men he had were defending off the rogues just on the other side. Xyler pressed beneath his skin wanting him to shift. Waverly He sent out the mindlink looking for her. He
Meeting: “Alpha your meeting with the Cold River Packs Alpha Aldric any minute.” Luke said to his Alpha. “I know. I really don't have time for this.” Rhett growled. “I don't know what he expects me to do to help his pack, We are doing everything we can here for ours.” Rhett sighed. ‘I know Alpha. It was gracious of you allowing this meeting to hear him out.” Luke agreed. “What are you going to tell him?” Luke asked after pausing for a moment. “I am going to hear him out and then tell him no. I will offer them some small supplies and homage for the night or two but we can't keep them.” Rhett said, annoyed. “Alpha. The Cold River Alpha Aldric is in the waiting room with his Beta.” Priscilla said, knocking on the door bowing her head to him as she spoke. Rhett sighed annoyed, looking from the papers on his desk to Priscilla. He opened the top drawer of his desk and scooped all the papers into the drawer. He looked up to her, rubbing his forehead annoyed. They had been allies for
Release: Rhett was frustrated, Hendrix was relentless. Rhett had been pacing his office for hours now. He needed a release. He sighed giving into the need to go for a run. The night had fallen and he walked outside his pack house. He stretched quickly looking up at the stars. A thought entered her head. He wondered if the rogues would turn Aldric’s pack domain into their own land. That could be a problem. He knew that rouges did not travel together, it was usually lone wolves or a family but the way attacks were on the rise, he wondered if something more was happening. He needed to know more about the attacks that Aldric’s pack faced. He stretched again trying to force the stress from his body. He was the reason his pack was surviving. He had thought of every possible measure to take. When they got wind of a famine coming they went self reliant. Growing their own food and crops, ensuring they had their own water supply. He made sure he had herbs for medicine on top of medical supplies

Preparation:The darkness was calming. It was comforting, there was nothing there, no pain, no problems. I was empty and the emptiness calmed him. He wasn't a stranger to this place. He had spent years in and out of the darkness. Day and nights when the cell he was kept in became too much, when xyler couldn't handle another blow. It was Aldric who normally sent them here, Xyler was always ready to fight. He was never the one who made them go into the darkness. He could feel him detached from him. He was there in the darkness but blocking their connection. It was usually the other way around. He remembered a night when he wanted to let it all go. He shut down and let himself slip in the blackness and hid there so well that Xyler couldn't find him. He remembered hearing his howls echo around the silence. It was days before Xyler found him. He remembered how Xyler buried his head into him, begging for Aldric not to give up. To try once more. Aldric let out a breath he knew he was going
Fracture:Aldric was still shaking long after Luke and Rhett left. He felt like he had just cut out a piece of himself. The hole he was feeling from being disconnected from Rhett was eating away at him. Not being connected to a pack was strangely numbing, and the look Waverly gave him before she left. The hurt in her eyes, the anger and hate completely shattered him. He was staring at the counter top of Satine’s kitchen. Xyler whimpering and howling inside of him was pushing him over the edge. “What did i do?”Aldric hadnt meant for it to be outloud but it slipped out in the smallest whispered“You stood up for yourself.” Satine said softly to him.“That's what I did?” Aldric said snorting some air out of his nose as he spoke.“Aldric you had to, otherwise you might as well be a prisoner. He does not treat you as a mate but more like an object.” Satine said quietly. Aldric growled in response to the way she spoke about Rhett. Yes he was being a complete ass and obsessive but he didn
Renounce: Xyler whimpers inside of Aldric wanting to go to Rhett. He was like some puppy that was so upset that Rhett was mad with him. He wanted to duck his head and cower with the amount of power and anger coming off of Rhett. Aldric watched Rhett’s chest rise and fall, his body tense as he stared at Aldric with betrayal. “Rhett.” Aldric said, finally forcing the word out of his mouth that had gone completely dry. “Don't Rhett me. Want to start explaining!” Rhett growled his eyes glowing, Hendrix was on the verge of pushing the shift, Rhett was fighting him back. “I-.” Aldric started to say but heard Satine let out a slow breath followed by her voice. “Evening Rhett. I am Satine Alpha of the RedWood pack. “ Satine said from the doorway of the kitchen, half in and half out of it. “I honestly dont give a fuck who you are. Aldric you better say something. For fuck sake your completely naked.” Rhett growled, his body beginning to twitch a little, he held up Aldric’s crushed cell
Mistake:Luke’s tires came screeching to a halt in front of the gate. The tires left a long black streak on the pavement. Smoke coming up around the tires. Rhett had already hopped out of the truck as soon as the gate was in sight Rhett.“Damn it.” Luke grumbled under his breath as he watched Rhett nearly run to the guard shack.Rhett took long strides marching up to the guard shack. He felt like he wasn't in control of his body. Rhett's heart was pounding so loud in his chest he could feel the vibrations of it in his ears. Jaw clenched shut he pounded on the guard door. The guard slowly opened the door as if he was scared and looked at his Alpha. “Phone, now.” Rhett said bitterly. “Yes Alpha. Here.” The man said, fumbling the phone in his hand, the waves of intense emotions coming off of Rhett was making him nervous. Rhett growled as he waited for him to quit fumbling the phone around. Rhett snatched it from his hand. He took a step out of the guard shack, staring down at the ph
