I had slept horribly after that kiss with Jade. It wasn’t the kiss that had caused my nightmare, but her words. She said I had caused her great pain. I had felt guilty for years, knowing my dad Brian had died because of me and that so many others had lost their lives when I was taken. Twice. I was only five then. I knew logically that it wasn’t my fault, but deep down the guilt of their death still bothered me at times. My mom had calmed me down as always and when I woke up I went to get some breakfast with my sister and Zoey. Zoey was always early here, her parents needed to do some work in the shop before they opened. I heard Jade come in, but I didn’t know how to act. If she hated me I could just ignore her until she left, but if she actually liked me. Even a tiny bit, I wanted to be with Jade in every way possible. Just one kiss made my knees go weak and I graved more of her. Briana snapped me out of my thoughts and asked me to look at Jade. Jade look

Jade's pov I have no idea why I grabbed Elias' hand. I just saw pure panic on his face and it didn’t matter how much I hated him. I felt pity for Elias in that moment, he looked so scared. The only thing I could think of was grab his hand, it was almost instinctively. Elias didn't need to tell me what caused his panic attack, I wouldn’t share my fears with anyone. I was really surprised when Elias was so open about his past. He barely knew me and had already shared something so vulnerable and personal with me. It was clear that I knew very little about the future King. My grandmother had told me he was responsible for my parents death and that the power that came with being King would corrupt Elias and all the werewolves. My grandmother was afraid the werewolves would end the truce between witches and werewolves. I was protecting both my heritages by stopping Elias from becoming King. When I said 'it will all be over soon', I had meant something different than Elias

Elias’ povThat Lisa really didn’t take no for an answer. I couldn’t even remember what I liked about her in the first place. After I shut the door behind me I took a shower, to calm my nerves. There were other things to worry about. I was realising I had tried to keep some of my memories and fears down, but being around Jade made it all come back. My mom had scheduled another appointment with my childhood doctor, hopefully that would help. Doctor Olivia was not one for beating around the bush, she always saw through my bullshit and knew what to say to me. I was always grateful that my father had found her for me. Some things you shouldn’t deal with alone. Maybe she could help me figure out the best way to deal with Jade as well, cause my approach only seemed to repel her.The next day Zoey was there at breakfast and I shared what had had with Lisa. ‘Okay, she’s crazy. But some of this is your fault, you know you should have broke things off with her much sooner

Elias’ povI didn’t get a chance to talk with Jade all day, I would try to find some time after seeing Doctor Olivia. Her office was near the school, so I drove there. Our session went great. As always Doctor Olivia had some great insights. ‘It’s normal to be triggered more easily when you’re under stress. Just take time for yourself, meditate or work out. Whatever helps you relax. Didn’t you used to love gardening? The next few months will ask a lot of you, not to mention once you become King. You won’t be able to help others if you don’t take care of yourself first’ Olivia said. I had also told the doctor about Jade. ‘She is really sending mixed messages. Perhaps wait until she’s figured out to pursue her further. But remember to keep your boundaries intact, there is no need for her to insult you. You need to surround yourself with people that support you, not try to tear you down’. She was right as always. I hadn’t done any gardening in a while, but I remember how it

Jade’s pov I was almost regretting choosing Liam over Elias. He was an awful tutor, he had no patience, was very arrogant and patronizing. By the end of the afternoon I had learned some werewolf history and more about Elias. I thought everyone loved Elias, but Liam really disliked Elias. Liam was complaining about how he was always in Elias’ shadow even if Liam scored higher on most tests. How he thought Elias would make a bad King, because he needed his mother to save him all the time. ‘Did you know he was kidnapped and almost killed twice? Nobody survives that and comes out normal. He acts so perfect, but I know he goes to therapy. I don’t want a King with mental issues’ Liam said. I laughed ‘okay I don’t like Elias at all. But I disagree. If he had lived the perfect life he would be incapable of the kind of empathy he has now’. Liam rolled his eyes ‘sure you dislike Elias. You’re just like the rest of them’. I sighed ‘let’s agree to disagree. Let’s just

Elias pov So Jade was from the Sage Mountain pack. When you arrive at our pack you get a series of interviews to see if you’re not a threat. I wonder how that part slipped through. I mean she was only four at the time, she didn’t have anything to do with my kidnapping or with my grandmothers betrayal. But I would have liked to know this in advance. The adults at the table were still quiet, while Jade sat there with a stoic look on her face. Did she truly not know how much that pack had cost us? Aah fuck it, if no one else was going to ask I would. ‘Were your parents killed during the attack?’ I asked Jade. My father looked at me with surprise, he was usually the one to ask the questions. ‘My father was killed during the attack, but my mother committed suicide after. I found her in the bathroom’, the last part she said quietly so the kids at the table couldn’t hear. I instantly felt guilty, if it wasn’t for me none of this would have happened. ‘Why did you come here

Jade’s pov I don’t know if I just made the biggest mistake ever, but honestly spending the night with Elias had been one of the best moment of my life. I didn’t have to think about my parents, the coven or my mission. I was just there, in the moment feeling all sorts of pleasure I can’t even describe. I just wanted to pretend for one night and give in, I had to spend my childhood working and doing what my grandmother wanted and I deserved one night off, right? When we took a shower together I was so distracted that I forgot about my tattoo’s. They weren’t actually tattoo’s, but markings made by spells. They were runes, to help me keep focused. One was a binding curse, that was binding me to my grandmother. I had promised to complete my mission in under a month, the rune would light up is she wanted me to contact her. It wouldn’t be a pleasant feeling though, something that added even more pressure. The other were runes for protection, enlightenment, magic and power.

Elias pov It hadn’t been hard avoiding Jade this week, I had been so busy with school and the conference. In the morning I drove myself and Briana to school and after school I did my homework or attended one of the meetings. It always felt like a family reunion seeing the special wolves, but it also brought back a lot of memories for everyone. Today we would talk at the school together for the younger kids, who might not know what happened 12 years ago. Growing up in this pack was great, but it wasn’t a good representation of the world. There were still a lot of places where you had to fit a certain mold to belong, where Omega’s were still treated as less than other wolves and where woman had little to no rights. Being different was celebrated at the Crimson Moon pack, I mean our Luna was a special wolf. But it hadn’t always been like this, when I first got to the Crimson Moon pack there was even a group trying to stop my father from making changes. I was glad Brian

Jade’s pov What kind of propaganda were they telling these kids? They were just lies to make Alpha Axel seem like the best Alpha around instead of the ruthless killer he was. And the way Dawn talked about our old pack my skin crawl. Lenore sounded horrible though, but my father must have had a reason to work with her. Dawn said it had to do with wanting power. If only they knew who was walking amongst them. All that talking about your feelings was nonsense too, I don’t’ talk about my anger or grieve. I use it. I left the auditorium and headed to the city closest to Crimson Moon Pack. I had to buy some last minute ingredients, I didn’t want to wait another 2 weeks for my spell anymore. I would wait until the conference was over and then end this whole charade. My poison hemlock hadn’t grown that tall yet, luckily every part of the plant was poisonous so I would have just enough. I needed to add my blood, this would ensure I was bound to the spell when it would

Elias pov I had no idea why Finley had to talk to Zoey first, but I needed an answer from Finley now. Finley didn’t need my protection anymore and she had finished testifying, so there was no reason for her to stay with me. I had mindlinked Zoey, but she didn’t respond. When I mindlinked Raven she said she found Zoey in her bedroom, she was shot and barely breathing. I ran as fast as I could and found Raven holding Zoey in her arms “she is shot with a silver bullet. It is still stuck somewhere, but I can’t find it. She needs help.” She was bleeding a lot and the silver bullet was making sure she couldn’t heal herself. Finley was walking to the hotel and she should be back any minute now, maybe she could heal Zoey. I heard a faint bang, it sounded almost like firework really far away. Most wouldn’t have heard it, but I pick up everything with my hearing. I mindlinked Finley, but it seemed like something was blocking me from reaching here. Zane got worried “you need t

Finley’s pov I needed something to distract me from this day. I was glad Alpha Ivar was gone, I really was. But I hated how everyone treated me and thought I was a threat. If there weren’t any other witnesses they might have believed Alpha Ivar, mostly because I was a witch. “But Elias’ parents don’t see you that way. They both defended you,” Diona said. “Yes, I was surprised by their words and really touched. I didn’t expect that from Luna Amber especially.” I replied. When Elias asked me to dinner I agreed without thinking twice. Maybe I should have thought this through, now I was stuck at the same table with him and the mate bond was so strong. I could feel the pull, making me want to touch Elias’ all the time. I should reject him again, but for some reason he didn’t accept this first time. “Don’t you remember, he said he loves you.” Diona said. That was just a dream right? I was almost dying and I lost consciousness. Elias looked at me from across the table “wha

Elias’ pov Finley had calmed me down, but I still wanted to kill Alpha Ivar for trying to rape Finley. Alpha Ivar asked another question “for someone who says to have so little magic, you seem to have a hold on our King. Do you deny trying to kill him?” Finley looked at me and said “I don’t deny it. I tried to poison King Elias before his 18th birthday. I regretted the decision afterwards and I called Luna Amber to help. Luckily she could save him. I was imprisoned by Alpha Axel soon after.” Alpha Ivar listened carefully to my words and then asked “so you sleep with him, then poison him and now you share a special bond, enough for you to travel with him for months?” How did he know I was traveling with Finley all this time? Finley answered “I had developed feelings for King Elias and it felt wrong to take a life, especially his. Elias had allowed me to travel with him to keep me save from my grandmother, who was looking for me after I failed to kill

Finley’s pov I had just killed my grandmother by using plants, healed my potential father-in-law. This should be easy right? I just had to tell what happened to me in Alpha Ivar’s dungeon. In front of everyone. Everyone who would likely hate me after hearing what I was and who my father was. Diona tried to give me more confidence “it doesn’t matter who or what you are, nobody can treat you the way he treated you. And you can tell them everything he did to Charlotte. You are the only one who can speak for her now.” Diona was right, I had to testify. Everyone should know what an awful person Alpha Ivar was, even if they found out about me. I got dressed, wearing a black pencil skirt, a white blouse and a blazer. My hair had grown out a bit the last few months and I just had it cut last week into a layered short bob. I put a tiny bit of make-up on, enough to make it seem like I had actually slept well. When I walked downstairs to eat something Elias was already sitting

Elias’ pov Finley was still unconsciousness in my arms and there was no way the witches would believe the word of a wolf. For all they knew I had killed Finley and Beatrix. No one made a move yet, but I could see they didn’t trust a word I had said. One of the witches came forward and said “if you truly care about Finley you need to let us heal her.” I didn’t know if I could trust them with Finley, she was as much wolf as she was witch. But we had to start somewhere, Finley was raised here. They wouldn’t harm her right? “We have to try. If they can help Finley heal. We have to try.” Zane said. I walked towards the witch and asked “where do you want her?”, she pointed to one of the houses and I walked in and placed Finley on the sofa in the living room. Every step I took towards the house I was followed by the stares of witches and they would be one step behind me, to make sure I didn’t try anything. I sat down next to the couch and asked “please help her.” The witch

Finley’s pov My grandmother had always kept her coven hidden from the werewolves by using spells, but I could see through them. I knew Elias and Luna Amber would have a hard time tracking me, but this would be for the best. I should be the one to stop my grandmother, maybe I could convince her before she hurt anyone. I shifted back close to the coven, walking around naked towards my grandmother’s house. I was surrounded by witches and I was too busy stopping grandma to even care about having no clothes on. I walked to my grandmother’s house and opened the door, seeing Alpha Axel and Gamma Omar tied up on the floor in a corner. They had clearly been drugged, because they were barely able to move or talk. But I saw Alpha Axel’s eyes opening. My grandmother faced me and said “Jade you came back”. I replied “My name is Finley and I am not here for you grandma. I am here to get Alpha Axel and his gamma back.” My grandmother looked at in disgust, as if I was pure fi

Elias’ pov I should have never left Finley alone. I just needed a moment. Finley avoided me all day yesterday and today we had a lot to do, mom was coming and the trial would start. But my mom just annoyed me. All my parents cared about was that I was keeping Finley safe and they failed to notice how hard it was for both of us to be around each other. I know keeping Finley safe was the most important thing for every werewolf. She could be the end of a prophesied war. But to me Finley was more than just someone to protect. She was my mate and she rejected me. My mom asked “is everything okay? Her wolf is nice, so that means she most likely will side with the wolves if anything happens right?” and it pissed me off. Of course all my mom cared about was that Finley would choose our side if a war ever broke out. I replied “yes mama, she will side with us. Because that is all she is good for right?” and I walked off leaving Finley with Zoey and my mom. When Zoey rus

Finley’s pov I didn’t tell Elias I could hear my wolf the first time I shifted. I wanted to, but we were so busy running and playing and it felt so good to be outside. I never thought about shifting until I came to the Crimson Moon pack. I had always thought I wouldn’t use my wolf and be a witch full time. Perhaps even use a spell to get rid of my wolf. But now having one, I never felt more complete. Diona, my wolf was so calming. Even before I could hear her I had felt her energy all day. Today had been the perfect day. I woke up feeling Diona in my mind and felt more at ease than I’ve had in a long time. Then Elias took me to the city and we had a great time. I promised to keep my distance, but it felt like we were starting to be friends. And Elias had even put money in an account for me each month. I had my own money that I could use whenever I could leave. But why did Elias have to ruin this perfect day by being my mate?! Why didn’t he tell me it was a full

Elias’s pov Hearing Finley talk about what Alpha Ivar had done to her made me go insane with guilt. Should I just have killed him when I had the chance? Should I have looked for Finley sooner? I didn’t know if I would be able to handle everything Finley had gone through, she was so strong. Finley’s birthday was coming up soon and two days later the trial would start. I planned to do the trial sooner, but it was so much work trying to get everyone here at the same time. I had to make sure there was a place for every witness, every judge and their security to stay. The trial was open to public, so there were a lot of other people coming as well. Honestly I was so happy I hired Raven, she had been the best investment I have ever made and she makes Zoey very happy. I had hired a lot of people now and sometimes I felt more like a business man than a King. But this was all part of the plan I had envisioned right? I would get to travel the world and find ways to help packs
