Mia POV
Jumping into the dating pool is hard. I cannot go on dates as much as I would like since I work almost every night. Ava and I talked well into the night last night. It has been two weeks since Patrick made out with me. I still wonder how he found out about my stripper past.
This morning I stood up with a new lease on life. I don't need a man to be happy. I have my brother and wonderful friends. I also have my work. A very impressive job. I mean I finally sing. It's my dream come true.
I will not sit and wait for my dream man to come to me. I am going to live my life one day at a time. If he shows up great if not it is his loss.
Today I am working behind the counter as a bartender. Scott asked me a week ago to help with a new talent that he discovered. Today is her first night up on stage.
I was worried when Scott told me about the new girl. I asked him point-blank if I needed to worry about my job. He told me not to worry. He ju
Mia POVI was awoken by someone in the bathroom. I try to focus and hear gaging inside the bathroom. All the fogginess leaves me and I knew that it was Liam in the bathroom.I stand up and look at the clock. It's just past 3 am. I was barely asleep for 4 hours. I grab my robe and walk towards the bathroom. I open the door and see Liam hunched over the toilet. I walk up to him and rub my hand slowly over his head."Hey, buddy. Are you okay?" He looks up at me. His face is pale."I don't know. I woke up feeling ill and the next moment I had to run to the bathroom." Liam sits down next to the toilet his head on his hands.I pick Liam up and place him on top of the cupboard next to the washbasin. I walk to the bath and pick up Liam's washcloth. I wet it with cold water and start cleaning Liam's face.I take Liam back to my room and tuck him in. I walk to the kitchen to get some medicine for Liam.I wake Liam back up and gave h
Grayson POVI have been locked up in the packhouse for 4days now. Courtney's dad still hasn't made his move and it is making me crazy. How am I going to find my mate if I need to stay inside the whole time?I walk to the woods. I need to let my wolf and angel loose. They are both getting antsy. I walk just past the tree line and let my wolf change.I give all power over to him. I have walked these woods many times with Max so I know it quite well. I tell my wolf to run towards the opening next to the river. He runs in circles enjoying himself before setting off towards the river.Once we arrived at the river Ernouf didn't give me back control. He ran towards the river and first took a few sips. I feel myself change back.I look at the river. It looks so cool and inviting. I decided that I was going to take a dip after I stretched my wings.I give over to my Angel side Ansiel. I feel my wings growing out of my back until it is fin
Grayson POVMax and I got up early this morning to go for a run around the pack borders. I need to speak to Alpha Ivan today. I cannot sot and wait for something to happen.We either need to be active in chasing away this guy or I am going out, exploring the country. I cannot simply hide away from him.I walk into Alpha Ivans's office. He is on the phone speaking to someone and it sounds heated. He throws down his phone and looks at me."Can I help you with something Grayson?""Yes, I would like to request for me to go out and explore.""Grayson you know that it is too dangerous to leave pack territory.""With all due respect Alpha, I came here to search for my mate. How am I going to do that while I am stuck inside? And how are you going to protect me once I leave for the next country?""I understand your frustration, but I need to keep you safe. For the time being, you are in my country so you are my responsibility. I w
Grayson POVI walk down and see a guy standing outside next to a black SUV. I do not recognize him so I went to introduce myself."Hi, I am Grayson." The guy takes my hand and gives it a firm shake."My name is Ignacio Botero." I hear footsteps behind me so I turn around and see Max standing there in a dress. The dress she is wearing is black with little pink roses on it. The sleeves are made of black lace that also has flower patterns on them. She decided to wear her hair loose and it really brings out her playful side."Wow, you clean up nice, Max," Ignacio says. Max gives a chuckle and gets into the car. We all follow her."So Alpha Ivan decided to send my insufferable brother-in-law to chaperone us tonight." Max looks at Ignacio while fullering her eyes."He wanted to make sure that Grayson remembers his mission and not try anything funny. I agree with the Alpha. You two have spent too much time in each company as is." I see the anger ri
Grayson Pov.I am waiting for Max to let me know what time the bullfights start, but I haven't seen her at all today. Which doesn't seem like Max. Usually, we start our day off by running through the forest together, but she also didn't pitch up for that. It doesn't bother me. Maybe she just had some stuff to do.I see Beta Diego and Ignacio walking towards me. They both look worried and that does not sit well with me. I stand up to greet them, but before I could get a word out Beta Diego starts talking."Have you seen Max today?" Beta Diego asks me. He has a deep frown on his face. It makes him seem more demanding than usual."No, I haven't actually. In fact, I was just wondering where she is. We go for a run each morning, but she didn't show up. We also had plans to go see a bullfight today. The last time I saw her was last night when she went up to her room after the show." I looked confused at the two men standing in front of me.I can see Beta
Grayson POVI run as fast as I could to Beta Diego's room. I need to show him the note before it is too late. He told me I have 24 hours and then Max dies. I don't know how long I have left since I don't know when the note was left.I knock on the door, waiting impatiently for someone to open the door.The door is opened by a woman that I guess is Max's mother. The lady is the spitting image of Max."Evening Grayson. Can I help you with something?" I looked shocked at this woman. how the hell did she know my name? I haven't even met her before. She chuckles as if she could read my mind."Did you really think I don't know who you are? You are the only person my daughter has been talking about. You are the first person in 3 years that made Max smile. You are also the most famous hybrid out there. And you are the only new face in the pack." She gives me the kindest and caring smile I have ever seen. I feel myself relax. I need to remember why I
Grayson POVI run back to my room to go and get dressed. I make as fast as I could. Every second count in this situation.I walk back outside and see Ignacio is already waiting for me. He looks like he has this black cloud hanging over his head."What did Beta Diego tell you?" I ask him once I am seated on the passenger seat."He didn't tell me much. He just gave me this piece of paper telling me that I need to take you there. He told me that you will fill me in as we drive." I nod my head. I guess there wasn't much time for Beta Diego to tell him what is going on."When I got back to my room after the search there was a note. Basically, ii said that he has Max and that I need to come to him. Alone.""Who is he?" I can hear the confusion in his voice."The assassin that followed me here.""The guy we were looking for? The one that is the parents of your friends? But why did he take Max? What do you know about this guy anyway?"
Grayson PovAnsiel retreats back into my mind and with him my wings also retracted. I look around the room just to see if there is anything of importance. Maybe I can take something to make it look like a robbery gone bad, but no police will believe that this was done by a human. All I can do now is hope that no evidence leads them back to us, to me.I was hit by the realization that I let my only guide back to the territory go back without me. I can always turn into my wolf and run back, but I don't have a clue where I am going. I walk out of the room and take a deep long breath. How the hell am I going to get back home? This is a nightmare.Ignacio walks towards me out of the shadows. He has this 'I told you' look on his face. I stand with my hands folded in front of me."You know, I am not even mad that you didn't listen to me. I am so happy to see you." Ignacio comes and stands in front of me. He has a look of sympathy on his face."Well I hear
Mia POVGrayson and I have been dating for a couple of months. His mother Emelia has been showing me the ropes of being Luna.Ava and Kai wanted to be part of the pack and when they told me that I was overjoyed. Their ceremony was 2 weeks ago. They had a beautiful baby boy. Ava told me in a moment where we were alone that she wanted her son to be apart of a loving pack. I agree with her. When she told me about how her life was growing up, my heart broke for her."Happy thoughts Mia. Today is your wedding day." Ava said while laying down her bundle of joy. Grayson's mother and sister came in with the biggest smiles on their faces."Did they deliver the dresses?" Evie asked me. I pointed to her dress. I asked Ava and Evie to be my bridesmaids. Evie was so happy she started dress shopping immediately. I told them the dresses need to be light pink and that they can pick out their dresses themselves."Well, time to get ready." Emalia paid for the hairdr
Mia POVToday is the day that I finally say goodby to this hospital room. Grayson had said sorry to me over a million times. I do not blame him for anything that happened.When that woman came into the room the first time I realized that she is sick. She lived in her own world and there is nothing we could do about that.I have been in the hospital for 2 weeks. It was the most horrible time of my life. Grayson kept asking me about what happened while I was taken. There is nothing I could tell him. The only cruelty that she showed me is, not giving me anything to eat or drink.In these 2 weeks Ava, Kai, and Grayson have gotten to know each other. Ava absolutely loves Grayson.She told me all about the time after I went missing. She told me that Grayson only went to bed after I was found. That was sweet of him, but I didn't want him to get sick because of me.Grayson and I talked about moving to his hometown. There is a lot of information ther
Grayson POVMia has been missing for a week now. The police have gotten absolutely nowhere with the investigation. Until this morning.There was a tip from one of the packs, situated here in New-Zeeland. They saw a woman matching Aria's description, going into a house that is supposed to empty and on sale.It is a newly built housing complex and no one is supposed to have been moved in.We are currently sitting in the trees surrounding the building. We are all supernaturals since we make the least noise. I left Kai at the hospital. He doesn't even know that we got a lead. From what I have gathered the last week, is that Kai is actually Mia's best friend. They grew up together until he has to move away. I knew that if I told him that, he would want to come along.I see movement in the corner of my eye. Aria is coming out of the house with a plastic bag in her hands. She walked to the curb, and I took that as my chance to go to her. I told the
Mia POVI tried to open my eyes. My head feels a little fuzzy. I tried to wipe my eyes but realized that my hands were tied up.I open my eyes and start looking around. The room is dark. The few sun rays that are filtered through the tiny vents on the wall that helps me see just a tiny bit better.It looks like I am in the basement of some sort. The bed that I am on looks to be like the only furniture in the room. Then my eyes travel to a table at the other end of the room.The door was opened and the whole room was flooded in light. I tried to shield my eyes but I couldn't. Not that I could do anything with my hands and feet bounds together.I couldn't even talk. There was a sticky tape that was covering my mouth."So the bitch is awake. Good. Now we can talk. I am going to remove the tape from your mouth. If you scream, I will kill you." I just nod my head. I will do anything to walk out of here alive. She walks closer and rips off t
Stranger POVI have been following Grayson and that bitch around. I was hoping to get her alone for once. She is always either in the car or is with someone.This morning I nearly had my chance but Grayson came out of the cafe too quickly. I just follow them until they stopped at the hospital.I got my chance when she came out of the hospital alone. I made my way to her. I kept the injection close. There is no way that she is going to getaway.Mia POVI walk out of the hospital feeling better than I ever had. I am so happy that Grayson and my friends get along so well. When Grayson and I fully mate I want to ask him if he would accept Ava and Kai into his pack.There is no way that I will be able to make it without them. Maybe first I need to ask them if they would like to come and live with me at the pack. Where ever that is.I raise my hand to unlock my car, but I felt a sharp stab in my neck. I turn
Grayson POVI woke up fuller of life than ever before. I am happy that I finally found out what is going on with Mia. I guess I would have done the same if I was in her position.There is so much that I still have to do for her. I just wish that she will get back to me as soon as possible with her decision. I promised her that I will give her some space today. It is hard, but as I told her last night I will not pressure her into anything. She has a brother to think about.My phone rang and it was my mother. I picked up."Hello, mother. What can I do for you?""I just wanted to know if you got to talk to your mate yesterday?""Yes, mom. Don't worry. I got to see her last night. We resolved the issues she had.""That is good. I speak to you again later."My mom dropped the call. I look at my phone in confusion. This was the shortest conversation I have ever had with my mother. There was a strain in her voice that I recogniz
Mia POVGrayson and I talked way past midnight last night. I felt so ashamed about how I treated him.He told me that he will not push me. He only wants to be with me. He understands that I am human and will court me as any other human man would have.If I feel like I no longer want to be with him then he would leave me alone. No questions ask. I am currently laying in bed just thinking about the future.I didn't lie to Grayson when I said I felt drawn towards him. I still feel that. Now more than ever. I guess the more time we spend together the more I feel towards him. Maybe it is the mate bond or maybe it is me. I don't really know.The first sight of the sun just came flooding into my room. I stood up and started getting ready for the day ahead of me.I asked Grayson just for today. I need to get my thought in a row. I would love to have somebody just for me to love.20 minutes later I walked into Ava's room. She is bu
Stranger POVI followed Grayson to a hotel. I even got a room in the same hotel. I had to take a room on a different level, but that will not stop me.Once he entered his room I placed a camera so that I can see him coming in and out of his room. I made my way to my room and sat and waited for him.He didn't come out of his room for the whole night. I guess my poor baby was tired. I didn't want to sleep just in case he left and I didn't notice.There was the only movement again after 6 the next morning. I followed him and saw him getting into the cab. I caught the next cab and did a spell to get the cabbie to follow Grayson.When we stopped I saw Grayson going into a car rental company. I waited until he came out once again.I followed him to this quaint little cafe. It looked like a very small business. I didn't try to go in. He would surely know that I am following him if he saw me inside the cafe.I did, however, get out of t
Grayson POVI got the same room as the previous time. I actually just got lucky on that one. The previous couple that stayed there just checked out.I looked out of the window into the dark. The sun has already set. The light in the city has started to switch on. They look like fairies dancing in the sky.It is already too late to go to the pub. Mia would already be finishing up her show. So I will start bright at early tomorrow.My wolf is back and being extremely annoying. He just wants to go out and find Mia. Make her talk to us.I am trying to keep him under wraps, but it is seriously hard. He is persistent. I close my eyes and clear my head. I think it is time to shut my mind off. That way Ernouf can stop irritate me.I fell asleep soon after...................................My phone's alarm woke me up at 6 am. I got ready to make my way to the cafe. Mia will probably go back to the cafe now that I didn't go there
