“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
“Yes my dear girl. After last night’s shenanigans I knew it was time to come back.” Nyx laughed.“Nyx I have missed you so much.” I told her as I sat the brush down and leaned against the counter as my legs felt like they were going to give out. I never thought I would be one with her again.“I have missed you too. I have always been here but after everything I was on the brink of death and needed some much-needed time to heal.” She tells me.“I understand.” I tell her.“I have always been around and seen through your eyes or your memories little one. I’m sorry it took so long.”“I’m just glad you’re better now Nyx.” I wish I could hug her close to me and never let go. You never realize how attached you are to something until it’s gone.“Me too Eve. Me too. Are you done in here? Can we go see our pup? I have missed him for so long and
“Good morning Eve.” Says Nora who is finishing up her cup of coffee.“Good morning love.” I tell her walking over and plopping down on the chair right next to Nora. “I got some exciting news.” I tell them.“Oh, you mean besides the guys from last night?” Liam asked with an accusatory tone.“Yeah besides that. But we also had it handles so you don’t have to fret.” I tell him with a wave of my hand.“What’s up Eve?” Bailey asked walking out of the bathroom brushing her hair.“Someone want to go wake Sophia?” I asked first.“We will.” Blake said still holding Walker. He walked out the door and a few minutes later Sophia walked in casually clothed. She walks over and plops down on my lap and starts moving her butt to get comfortable. I let a little yelp out from the bone digging in to my leg.“Woman put some meat on this ass b
I slowly move closer to the bed just in case this is a hallucination. I reach my hand up and lightly drag my fingers down the side of his face. I jerk my hand back because the feel of skin under my fingertips surprises me. My dreams never feel this real. I slowly get up on my knees and crawl to the edge of the bed. I reach my hand up and cup Zayden’s cheek, lightly brushing my thumb right under his eye. The light movement must have startled him enough that his eyes fly open and he has a death grip on my wrist. My eyes widen in shock staring in to his.“Grey?” He croaks out after blinking a few times clearing his vision.“Hey buddy. Yeah, it’s me.” I say in a whisper. His hand loosens its hold on me but he doesn’t let go of my wrist. We just sit there and stare at each other for a few seconds before he let’s go of my wrist and swings his arms around my shoulders pulling me in to a hug.“Grey.” He whisper
Lord Carmykel’s son sighed before answering. “They somehow laced my drink with the metal. I was out at the bar with some co-workers and didn’t notice anything unusual. I started to feel weird so I excused myself to step outside. I remember someone following me and when I turned around they hit me with something before injected me with some type of serum knocking me out.”“This is crazy. Are these assholes going after all supernatural’s?” Jaxon growled.“That’s the way it seems to be going. I just hope we can live through this. I want to go home to my mate. We had just found she was pregnant.” Jaxon muttered to himself.“We all do.” Jayden muttered looking down.“I haven’t even found my beloved yet. I’m only 538 years old. That’s like the equivalent of being in my early 20’s in human years. I need to make it out of here and start searching.”&
GreyI don’t know how much longer I can hold on. The experiments are becoming too much for my body to handle. I can feel it slowly starting to shut down. If we are lucky we get a piece of bread and a paper cup of water a day. Being wolves, we can’t live off of only that. I know there are many that have made it on that but not while having to endure strenuous experiments of unknown origins.I can feel my mind starting to jumble. I don’t know if they just want to torture us or if they are trying to break us. Either way it’s working. I keep thinking of Everleigh and the life we could have if none of this had happened. Would we be a regular family? Have kids? Would they be running around acting like us when we were younger or would they be like Everleigh? Sweet, calm and collected all at the same time.I don’t know how long I have been out this time but the darkness is starting to fade and I feel the torture that
“Let’s go find her and let Aunt Sophia have some much-needed alone time.” I say standing up. Walker walks over and shuts the Tv off before walking around and picking up their plates and cups, toys and miscellaneous things they have placed everywhere.“Thank you Sophia. I really appreciate you.” I say turning towards her.“No problem Everleigh. You know I love that little boy like he was my own and Felix is getting there too. They are the best little boys anyone could have the pleasure of watching.” I smile knowing that having them around means the world to her.After the boys pick up their things we head out the door after giving hugs and saying bye. We walk down the hallway towards our room when I see Desi coming out of her room.“I was just going to look for you boys.” She says smiling down at them.“We were on our way to you mom.” Felix says with a yawn.“Uh oh, I thi
“Feels like it’s been years since I’ve seen you Everleigh.” She whispers letting go of me.“I’m sorry Soph. I didn’t expect all this to happen and mess up our vacation.” I tell her looking at the floor. “I’m not the Luna but this still feels like my pack and I have to do something.” I say slowly looking up at her.“I understand babe. I promise I do. I don’t mind. I love watching the boys and Rylan. They are so good with her. Plus, her dad isn’t bad to look at either.” Sophia says winking at me causing me to chuckle.“I need to talk to Walker though. There is something I need to see if he can do.” I say turning to look at the boys giggling at the moving they are watching. “I don’t want to put it on him but he is the only one I know that can dream walk. I really need to talk to one of the guys.”“I watched him do it with Aria and Jaz
I hear the buzz of voices in the background as I walk around the office not knowing what I’m doing and doubting myself. How do the guys do this day in and day out? I mean yeah they grew up learning this stuff but how does the stress not eat them alive? I feel like I’m failing everyone. The scouts got hurt because I sent them out. The guys are missing because some asshole is after me. They don’t even know they have a son because I couldn’t bring myself to come back and tell them. I couldn’t bring myself to come back and see them happy with someone else. Even if they didn’t I couldn’t bring myself to come back and be hurt again by all the memories.Over the years I have learned that it wasn’t all on them but the hurt in my heart couldn’t keep me here. It would be never ending while someone was plotting against my mates and me. I don’t know what this Orphee person is after or why but I know it’s bad. I know they w
“She will be here in a jiffy.” Dawn says coming out of the mind-link. “Good thinking Everleigh. We honestly don’t think of things like that. We have been around nothing but good witches and Fae over the last five years that we don’t stop and think.” She says apologetically.“That doesn’t make since. After everything that has happened you all really put your trust in witches not to be dark still?” I scoffed.“It’s not like that Everleigh. We have had rogue attacks still but the witches have left us alone. Because of Vor and Wendy we don’t have any issues with them thankfully. They have done such an amazing job with their warding around the pack lands we haven’t had to worry about dark ones coming in. Anyone with magical ill intentions is not allowed to cross over to the main part of the pack lands.” Evan explains.“But others who have ill intentions can still come and go?&rd
EverleighIt’s been three days since we sent the scouts out. Three days since we heard anything. Dev says this is how it is sometimes when they are on a mission. It’s an eight-hour drive to that pack. They could have flown but that is too easy to trace and they would have known as soon as it landed. Since it was late at night when they left they would have gotten there around three in the morning. We have not seen Zayden’s mom Eve the last few days which is worrying me a little. I don’t know why but I have a feeling she is behind a lot of this.We went and visited Liam. There is still no way of knowing when he will wake up. His wolf is still out. Bailey sits by him every day all day long. I had a hard time convincing her to go shower last night. I told her I was going to sit by him until she returned to make sure someone was here with him. He reluctantly agreed to it. I talked to the doctor about putting him up in the Alp
“You and your mates are still linked. It is very weak but it is still there. When you are close all powers will be restored and strengthened.” Vor said shaking her head to clear it. She clears her throat before focusing on everyone else. “Yes, anyways, I have a few pendants that I will give the warriors to wear. You must not take them off until you get back here. It will cover your scents, tracks and there is a barrier spell put in them so no one will see you easily. If they are close enough they still can but it will distort your figure and camouflage you from a distance.”“Wow that’s more than what I was going see if you could do.” Everleigh said with a chuckle. That chuckle sent my heart in to overdrive. I have missed my mate so much. “I will go get those then these men can head off. The sooner they go the sooner we can get the kids back.” Vor said grabbing Wendy&rsqu
