Heyyyy, I am sorry for only updating one chapter. I have had very little downtime at work and home today to type, but I have the whole weekend off, so I will make sure to make up for it! P.S. Have faith in our girl! I know some of you are angry with how the story has turned... but they have this! What's a little chaos to these three! ;) Don't forget my socials are my first port of call for updating issues ;) Author. Pippa. Moon
Lottie POV"Ugh!" I mumbled, my hand lifting to my head with a wince. It felt like a nest of hornets had taken up residence inside my skull... and they were pissed! Opening my eyes and immediately regretting it, witnessing the bedlam around me, with earth-shattering clarity, I remembered all that shit from earlier was not a dream but my very reality! Closing my eyes again as pain tore through my shoulder, instantly knowing something was broken; as much as I wanted to sit and whine about it and wallow in the pain, I pushed myself onto my knees, knowing I had to find Kane and Knox- or Havoc and fix this mess. My eyes fell on the frightened faces of some of the women in my pack, women I had grown up with and respected, all cowering behind Luna as he tried to find safe passage from the hall; following her panicked eyes, I saw what had frozen her to the spot. Havoc was currently hovering over Kane, his paw on his throat as Kane's eyes closed, and he gave into slumber.. but I would be da
Lottie POV "Perhaps not the right choice of words!" Sage whimpered as an almighty howl left Havoc's lips, one that had the chandeliers shaking and the windows vibrating. This sucked! The thought of even contemplating rejecting either of my mates made my heart ache, a real tangible pain that felt like my heart was tearing apart."Why? Because it hurts?" I snapped at my wolf, hating how much she craved Havoc's affection."Because we love them!" She whispered, "We were created for them, to fit them perfectly, to compliment their..""What... Carnage? Can you not see the fucking bloodbath our mate has caused Sage!" I hissed at my wolf while keeping my eyes locked on Havoc, my fingers pressing firmly against Kane's side, willing him to heal! For Rolo to do his thing and save my damn mate before I personally killed this big fucker!"He didn't mean to!" Sage tried to defend him, but even I heard how weak her tone was. I should have just let it go; she was hurting too, but I couldn't! "HE ha
Knox POV The red mist finally began to disperse, allowing me to see more than the irrational fear and anger that was, for some reason, eating Havoc up. "Not irrational." Havoc snapped at me, making me frown, suddenly feeling uneasy, leaving him in control."I was angry, yes! I wanted to kill Mike, sure, and I have no doubt that one day I will, Havoc! But today was never meant to be that day!""Maybe today is the day!" Havoc grumbled unbothered; he was a wolf of few words, I knew that, but I had hoped he understood the situation enough to know we had to do this properly, or we just looked like jealous mates with a vendetta."I wanted to show Mike that he meant nothing, that despite how he had tried to sully Lottie in our eyes, he hadn't! That we adored her just as much now, knowing what she had done with him as we ever did!" I tried to reason with my feral beast. "He knows we love her; I showed him!" Havoc growled. "You showed everyone!" I sighed, knowing I was getting nowhere. He
Lottie POV"You don't remember?" Luna asked, her voice cracking from the weight of her heartbreak. I couldn't imagine what she was going through right now! The fear I had felt at the idea of losing Kane would forever be imprinted on my soul! Swallowing the lump in my throat, I looked at her and shook my head in warning. "We need to be careful how we tell him!" I warned her through the link I had created for Kane, his mother and I. I watched her eyes dart past Knox to me before she pulled her hands out of Knox's hold. Clearly, it wasn't just looking at him that she found challenging; his touch seemed to cause her discomfort physically. She blamed her son for her mate's death; that much was clear to Kane and me. "Ma." Kane called from the floor, but she shook her head and stepped away, turning her back on Knox, his eyes luckily still locked on his mother; I could sense his heart breaking in his chest and knew Kane would be feeling that too. I felt Kane tense beside me, pain washing t
Lottie POV: "Pardon?" I asked, my hand reaching up to my neck, running over the cold chill that was chasing down my spine. "I don't think you want to know." Sage added, and my eyes closed as I looked beyond Alpha to the countless other bodies that loitered the halls, left behind by the turmoil and destruction that was Havoc. I watched my mates walk away in the direction my Alpha lay, lifeless and alone and had to agree with Sage; I didn't want to know. But I had to! "Are you coming?" Kane asked over his shoulder, his eyes boring into mine needily. "No, love. Your brother needs you!" I nodded with a small smile. "But I need YOU!" He whined, a smile slipping across my lips at the tenderness in his tone, something he rarely shared with me, although I knew it was there. "I am not going anywhere, Ace!" I offered. Truthfully, I wanted to follow them and be at their side, but I didn't trust myself to hide whatever Sage was about to tell me from my face. They would have enough suff
Lottie POV"Shit!" I hissed, remembering that no one but Knox, Kane and I had their wolves. I had heard Kane say it earlier, but in the madness, I had forgotten! "So, how did he kill Alpha Leigh instead?" I asked, needing more than this before I approached the boys."He doesn't know. Havoc doesn't remember killing his father.. he knows he must have, but he was so angry at times he said he was just seeing red mist." "The red eyes!" I nodded to Sage, who grunted in agreement. "Does Knox know?" I asked, but I already knew the answer because there was no way Knox could fake the heartbreak I saw engraved into his face as he and Kane mourned their father."No.. Havoc just wanted to take on the debt so that Mike didn't get the payment and get.."Me!"Yeah, I get it!" I snapped, hating that a life had been snuffed out because of me. My mate's father and my Alpha's life! The man who raised me, who taught me about shifting, and how to ride a damn bike, was dead because I was some damned prize
Mike POV"Flint?" I questioned nervously while trying to roll my shoulder; the discomfort it radiating to my chest ached like a mother fucker. The bleeding had slowed now I was applying pressure, but fuck me, the pain was insane. "I thought the whole point of that fucking shit was to mute everyone's wolf, not knock them out entirely." I snapped to the man brooding to my right. His eyes locked on the ballroom doors as we stood against a wall under the stairs, allowing the darkness to hide us from the disarray erupting around the packhouse."Your wolf is still there. You are fine! Stop whining!" Anthony snapped, his eyes unmoving from the door. "How the fuck would you know? You haven't even looked", I ground out moodily. "Aw, sorry, Princess, do you want me to kiss your boo-boo better? Or make sure no one is coming out of those doors looking for us!" He hissed low, my cheeks burning with anger and a little shame."Be real; this wasn't our fault; it's equivalent to a kick-ass teen spi
Mike POV "Want me to kill him too?" The hooded figure asked Anthony, without looking over at me, simply nodding his head in my general direction. Given the blase edge to this stranger's tone and the boredom written across his features, I got the distinct feeling he was serious. "How much extra?" Anthony asked, his tone so severe I felt my jaw fall open; I wanted to look at my Beta and ask what the fuck, but the truth was I was too scared to look away from the demonic freak in case he acted on those unnatural impulses and slit my throat or some shit! Not like anyone would find me in this dark corner! "I dunno.. a gold medal?" He grinned so slyly that I almost knew he was enjoying my discomfort. His sarcasm and reference were not lost on Anthony or me; at least, I assumed so, given the chuckle that left my Betas lips. A pit formed in my stomach that made me squirm a little. Is this how I made Lottie feel? "Noted, I will let you know!" Anthony snorted."Fucking try it! I dare ya!" I
