“What’s in it? It smells good.” Blake asked as he took the ladle from Mable and scooped some in to a bowl for Nora then himself.
“Carrots, cabbage, canned tomatoes, hotdogs, a few other things and seasonings.” She said taking a bite. “After my grandfather passes away gran would always make this for us once a week to always remember him by since that was his ‘diet’ food.” She chuckled.
“I don’t see how it’s healthy.” Bailey whispered as she took a bite then moaned.
“I don’t see it either dear but he swore by it. I cook it because I like it. Want some bread?” Mable asked the table.
We all nodded and she handed out the bread. I look at Walker and smile. He is so engrossed in what he is watching that he isn’t even paying attention to what he is eating as puts the empty spoon in his mouth.
“Baby you have to put food on the spoon before taking a bi
ZaydenThese rogue attacks are getting ridiculous again. When Grey and I got back we got told there was four attacks in the span of thirty-six hours. We have no idea what they want or why they are attacking us. Anytime we have a rogue captured they end up dying within a few hours. We can’t figure out how or why it’s happening. It’s becoming frustrating.After this attack tonight something seems really fishy. I’m going to have to call and see if other packs in the area are getting attacked also. I have a feeling they are but I need to see if they have any information for me about these rogues. As I enter the packhouse I notice it’s busy. People all over the place trying to straighten things back up and helping the injured, getting people out of the bunkers and back home. I see Dev and walk over to him as he directs a group of teenagers to help with the children find their parents. Thankfully no one got seriously hurt this time.“Dev.” I say as I get close enough to him. His head whips
“Said anything yet?” I asked him looking back at the guy. He doesn’t look like a rogue but he has no scent so we can’t be sure.“No but we were also waiting on you. I know you would have more fun.” He said smirking at me. I chuckle.“Let’s get to it.” I said taking a few steps to the door and turning the handle opening the door. The rogues head tipped up growling.“Shut up. If anyone has the right to be pissed off it’s me and my pack.” I told him taking the chair against the wall and grabbing it putting it down around five feet in front of him. I walk around the chair and sit down looking at him.“I won’t tell you shit.” He spits out.“Probably not but we have our ways to get you to talk.” I tell him cocking my head to the side.“Whatever you thinking of doing I have had worse.” He says between growls. “You won’t brea
“You can stop this by telling me about the girl you are after.” I tell him as I leave him panting on the chair and walk back over the cabinet dropping the whip on the floor. I look over the tools again. I stop and pull out a pair of pliers and a knife.I know we are wolves and have claws but I prefer not to put my hands or claws in to our “guest” mouth or other openings unless I’m tearing out their hearts or slitting their throats.My hand tightens around the instruments as I walk back over to the rogue. I sit in the chair across from him. I put my elbows on my knees as I lean towards him a little bit.“Now tell me about this woman.” I demand pushing out my alpha aura. I know it doesn’t work on people who are not in my pack but you never know if he might have ties somewhere along the way.He is panting hard as I watch the flames turning purple as they heat up then blue as they cool down. The hotter the
“I need to talk to you both.” He said.“What’s up Evan. Is everything ok?” Grey asked.“Yes I got something to tell you. Can we go to the office?” He asked nervously.“Yeah. We will meet you there in 20. Let us get cleaned up first.” I told him.“Alright.” He said turning around to head to the office.I look at Grey and he shrugs his shoulders. “Let’s go get cleaned up and see what he wants. Honestly I wish I could sleep but I can take a small nap afterwards.” We head up the stairs and Grey makes it to the door before I do. He opens it up and heads toward the closet.He grabs a pair of dark blue jeans, boxers and a white button-down shirt before walking to the bathroom. I go to the closet and grab a pair of black dress pants, boxers and a black button-down shirt for myself.I’m glad our shower has two shower heads so we don’t have to wait o
EverleighI have been laying in this bed for three hours and sleep will not come. I’m afraid my tossing and turning is going to wake Walker up so I get up and go to the bathroom and do my business. When I walk out, the thought of lying down isn’t appealing. Something inside of me is feeling restless.Maybe if I go for a walk it will help. I slide a hoodie on over my tank top and smooth it out. Thankfully it covers my butt too. I love leggings because they are comfy but I don’t like my butt hanging out.I walk over to the door where our shoes are and put my tennis shoes on. Grab my small knife that I always carry on me and the room key and slip in to the pocket on the leg of my leggings.I slip out the door, closing it carefully behind me and go across the hall lightly knocking on the door. When it opens I smile.“I can’t sleep and want to go for a small walk. Would you like to come with me
Still nothing. I feel her tense beneath my arms and tighten my grip on her.“Bailey?” I said this time while pulling on her arm. I watch as she blinks and clears her eyes.She looks at me and smiles. “Yes Eve?”“What’s going on? It looked like you noticed something.” I asked her as the gentleman sat our drinks on the window counter.“That will be $8.75 girls.”Bailey pulls a ten-dollar bill out of her pocket and puts it on the window counter next to the cups before grabbing one and me grabbing the other. “Keep the change sir. Thank you.” She said before turning around and slipping out of my hand.I also thank the gentleman and turned around to follow her. I notice that is still scanning her surrounding but still walking at a leisurely pace.“Bailey? What’s wrong?” I ask as I catch up to her.“Someone is here. They are watching. I only caug
“Bailey!” I yelled.“Oh, don’t mind him. He’s having fun with your friend. Nothing she hasn’t done before I’m sure. He will take really good care of her and make sure she is well taken care of.” He said as dug through the pack looking for something.I heard his say ah ha before pulling out a covered needle with clear liquid inside. I watch as he pulls the plastic over off and taps the tube a few times.I start squirming and shaking trying to get loose.“You aren’t going anywhere.” He said chuckling. “You will be coming with me and once we are safe we will be attacking this pack and taking all the women and children and killing all the men here. We have big plans for ALL of you.”I feel my body start to get warm, tingles shooting up from my stomach to my fingertips. I feel the wind pick up and throw my hair all over my face. I watch as the guy looks up from towards t
Even with so much on our minds we made it there with no more issues. Most of the blood on Bailey had washed off from the rain which I’m thankful for. We didn’t want any questioning looks form the staff members. We go to the elevator and hit the button waiting for it to come down.We look at each other and bust up laughing.“Eve, even though that was horrible that was the most fun I’ve had in a while. I honestly could have taken that guy at any time but I love playing weak to give the people fake hope that they will get me the way they want me.”I laughed. “I was wondering because I know for a fact you are stronger than that.”As the elevator dinged and the doors opened, we walked inside, hit the button for our floor and waited.Once we made it up to our floor we got out. I waited until she made it to her room before I went and opened my door. I snuck in, grabbed dry clothes and took a quick shower to wash a
“Felix.” Desi said with tears starting to form in her eyes. “How do you know your daddy is in the sky?”“He told me mommy. He visits my dreams. He told me to tell you he loves you no matter what and he doesn’t blame you for what happened.” Felix said reaching up and cupping Desi’s cheek as she silently cries for her mate.She grabs ahold of Felix and wraps him in a hug burying her face in his neck. He wraps his small arms around her neck and holds on tight.“It’s ok momma. He said he is happy and watching over us. He is waiting for the day he will see us again.” I hear Felix whisper to her.“How do you know baby?” She asked in a barely audible whisper.“I see him in my dreams momma. I just said that silly. He said he would visit you but he doesn’t want you hurting.”The only way to tell Desi is crying is the shake of her shoulders. She has silent
“Yes! We can do it but we have to practice a lot and learn everything we can.” Walker tells him.As we get closer to the training field the boy’s excitement grows even more as they see the training happening in real time by warriors. The run over to the edge of the field and watch the warriors practice. They talk about how awesome these guys are and how they can’t wait to be like them. Someone walks up next to us and laughs at the boys antics.“You should see our Alpha during training. He would put these warriors to shame.” He says to the boys watching the warriors still.“No way!” Felix mutters never taking his eyes off of the action.“Our Alpha has taught all of us how to fight and be better at it. His father did the same thing. They train what is called a lead warrior and that warrior trains all of the other warriors. When the Alpha learns something new he shows us all how to do it too.” He te
“Isn’t it though Soph. These people are after me for some unknown reason. Whether it’s to kill me or take me as a mate. Someone has been after me since I showed up here. I think the reason I’m not dead yet is because either Zayden or Grey is the one who always brought me food and when I was by myself I got my own food not wanting anyone to know where I was.” I whisper to her. I don’t care who hears me when I say how I feel. I know this is all my fault. Maybe I should have died when I was younger. Then we wouldn’t be having this many issues in the present.“Don’t you ever say that Everleigh. Those men loved you. If it wasn’t for me starting stuff then we wouldn’t be in this situation.” Desi said looking at me.“It’s not all on you though Desi. If there wasn’t any hesitancy in their mind then a spell shouldn’t have worked.” I tell her.“I’m sorry.&rdqu
EverleighI wrap my arm around Remy’s shoulders and chuckle. I understand noticing a cute guy when no one else does.“You’re good Remy. Glad you noticed. Can you picture him and let me see what he looks like?” I asked looking at him. He nods his head. I let his shoulders go as I bring my hands up to his head and see the picture of the man he was talking about. Why does he look familiar?While I still have my hands on his head I ask if he can picture the guy from any other time he noticed him. I watch as the pictures in his head start to change slowly. One picture shows the guy standing by the forest in the shadows watching the guys train, him in the shadows watching a pack meeting, I watch as the pictures change a few more times before I tell Remy to stop on the one he is thinking of. I stare at his memory of this guy talking to a cloaked figure out in the forest. I let go of Remy’s head and let my hands fall to my sides. When I open my eyes everyone is looking at me but Remy’s worrie
“This is my idea for the rescue. With not knowing how many of the witches would be willing to help out I estimated two to each group. The vampires that will be helping out from my coven will add an extra ten to each group. I like the idea of three groups going in.Since these two lands boarder each other our best bet would be to attack from the North, East and South of White Fang. The other group will attack from the North, South, and West of Black Lake. The groups on the East and West sides will cause a distraction to get as many rogues and warriors to those sides as possible.”He looks around at everyone and nods before continuing. “While the distraction is happening the two groups on the North and South sides will advance inwards. Those two groups will break in to two more groups.The first group will fight and keep the other group covered so they can go in and get the kids out. But the problem is how will we get the kids to safety when we g
“I think the kids need to be rescued first. They have no way to defend themselves. Their captures might start hurting them if we go after the others before them.” Jazzlynn says.“I agree. But the rescues need to be started within an hour of each other. We need to find a way that there is no communication with others outside of that pack to get to the adults captures.” Aria says.“I can help with that. Well, my coven anyways. They love Zayden as their own and wants him back too. He saved a lot of us and we want to do the same for him. I will go and see who will volunteer for the rescue.” Vor said standing up.“Thank you Vor.” Dawn says.She goes out the door quickly and we hear the click of the lock as it engages knowing she just locked us in.“So where are the thought processes of these rescues? How far have you gotten?” Lord Carmykel asked looking around.“Honestly we haven&r
“They are hybrids so the sun doesn’t bother them as much as a full fledge vampire.” He said before commenting, “Now that, that is out of the way let’s get to strategizing on how we are going to save all these people.”“Does anyone have any plans? I know everyone has been thinking of things. I want to start off with the kids safety first.” I say turning around to look at the map.“I have an idea.” Buster said.We all turn to look at him.“You said Gamma Dev is taking the lead on the rescue of the kids correct?” Buster asked looking at Dev for conformation.We nod our heads. “Who will be going with him? Like how many warriors? We can’t send to many because then it will lead to an easier attack on the pack if someone knows.”“I planned on taking a few of the higher-ranking warriors, sending a few with Evan also and leaving a handful here to protect t
Everleigh“How do you know Lord Carmykel?” I asked him looking skeptical.“I’ve been to various places, met many sketchy people, but this one here.” He says holding up a picture of one of the guys on a table looking like a lab rat, “Is on a clan grounds. I watched as it was built. It was supposed to be a research center to help find resources for Vampires and hybrids. To find ways for us to go in the sun and not get sick, find ways to help curve our appetite and so forth. That was over 60 years ago when it was built. There was supposedly an accident that destroyed it around ten years ago. Apparently not. From the looks of it, it’s working just fine.” He says lowering the picture.“Where is this research center?” Vor asked him.“Black Lake. It is a little over six hours away by car.”“How far away from White Fang is that?” I asked.
“How did you know?” She asked looking at the floor.“The weird things you eat, you don’t drink which could honestly be just because you don’t like to and your scent has slightly changed.”Oh shit, she’s pregnant! I thought to myself.Everyone’s eyes almost bug out their heads when they whip their heads towards Luna Jazzlynn.“Why didn’t you tell me?” Asked Luna Aria.“We were going to have a party and invite everyone before this shit storm happened.”“Have you had a checkup done recently?” I asked her“No. I haven’t had the chance to yet.” She admits.“Luna Aria, take her down to the clinic and get her checked. The stress of everything going on is not good for her or the pup. We will update you all when you get back.” I say looking at Luna Aria. She nods and stands, grabbing Luna Jazzlyn’s hands and pull
