RYDER I am excited about Paige and the girls moving onto our floor, although we have never had a human as a head girl or even a prefect before, although we have more humans in this senior year than ever before. Dad is really excited to see what Paige and her girls will do. He is impressed by both Paige and Suzy. The latter had the highest scores the school had ever seen on the entrance exam, but her grades had been slipping a little this year. But with the bullying and lack of food, that has been explained. I am lying in bed, thinking about our poker game last night, Suzy really relaxed and let herself go, the change in her after just one day of being friends with Paige is astounding. What worries me though is what she has told us about the bullying that has been going on since she arrived. She never said anything about Naomi's disappearance, but I think she may know more than she is saying. I glance at the clock, it's 5:30, I mind-linked last year's head girl. Drew is one of our
CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE PAIGE It’s Friday and I have just finished my first week at a normal school. I have fucking friends, I am the fucking head girl. The last two days have been perfect. Suzy has taken the role of office manager and has our schedules down to a tee, and seems to love bossing us all around. This is the life I have always dreamed of, the life I want after this mission. Would they accept me if they knew who I really was? Would Ryder accept me and Haven and the boys into his pack? Ryder, Rob, their friends and I have settled into a routine. We meet every morning at 5:15 Ryder buys me coffee, and then we run for an hour before getting ready for class. Every class I have someone to sit with. At lunch I have a table full of friends, after school we all sit and do homework together, or hold surgeries in our office for any student that needs our help with something, and in the evening we train and then play poker. I have taken so much money from Seb, he is not a happy bo
PAIGE I am sitting in the passenger seat of Jared's car. The atmosphere is electric. His hand was gripping my thigh, his fingers tightening as we reached the underground parking of his hotel. As soon as we were out of the car, he grabbed my hand and we ran up the stairs to the fourth floor. He opened the door to the suite and pushed me in, locking the door behind us. Jared kissed me hard, grabbing at my breast through my dress. "I can't wait any longer P, I want you so fu.cking much. " I moaned into his mouth as he unzipped my dress, letting it fall to the floor. He quickly undid my bra and threw it aside, then pulled off my panties. Jared bent down to kiss me again, his hands sliding up my legs. I shivered when his fingers slid over my pus.sy lips, gently rubbing them. He broke away from our kiss and started to undo his shirt, pulling it off. He looked so sexy in just his slacks. I could feel myself getting wetter by the second. He smiled at me and took off his pants, revealing

RYDER Watching Paige leap onto one of the intruders and snap his neck as if it’s something she does on a daily basis, I am frozen in shock, she moves so quickly, as fast as a wolf in human form, but graceful, almost cat-like, She drops him then swings to the next, using him to crash into another, before cutting them both lose. Hearing a gun shot, I pulled myself together. They were all still going down the ropes so I ran down the stairs. As I hit the second floor, I saw her take out another guy, who the fuck is this chick.. I ran down the last of the stairs to see her land on her feet in a fighting stance. One of the ones that fell started to get up so I shifted my hand and ripped his throat out. Paige is facing off against the last one, they are mirroring each other, their movements completely synchronised. I have never seen anything like it. She smirks then starts doing one of the moves from football training, crouching with her arms out in front of her and running on her toe
Prologue Lying here trying to get my eyes to focus, I try to remember what happened. The ringing in my ears does not help with my train of thought. Today started out so well. I was going on a well-earned break from the crazy none-stop shit that is my life. But here I am lying in a pool of my own blood, trying to work out how this day turned south so quickly. My partner Jared and I had been given a week of downtime and we were heading for the beach. I actually saw the bright blue of the ocean in the distance before the call came in, fu**ing vampires attacking humans in a mall. Waving tata to the crystal blue dream, Jared pulled an illegal U-turn and headed west with his foot to the floor. We pulled into the mall car park, the overwhelming stench of blood and rogues had made me gag. Following the sound of screaming, we walked into a sh*t storm. Bodies were everywhere, some with heads, some without, fu**ing rippers, they were the worst kind of bloodsuckers. Their minds are completely g
PAIGE I have been stuck in this fu**ing hospital for two days, but I am finally healed enough to be discharged. Swallowing the pills the Doc left me, I looked in the mirror. I couldn’t seem to shake this headache. Starting into my eyes, I stared into my hazel orbs, is that a green ring around my iris? I call forward my cats eyes, everything becomes sharper instantly. I look closely at the rim of my bright yellow irises and there it is a definite Jade green rim. I blink all three of my eyelids and look again and it’s still there, weird. My bag is packed, not that I have a lot. Jared and the other lads from our team, have been to see me but they just ate whatever they brought me, such a bunch of dicks. One last look around the room and I slung my bag over my shoulder and headed for the door. Jared is leaning on the wall, flirting with a nurse. He is such a sl*t. He winks as he sees me and leans in to whisper in the nurse’s ear, making her giggle. When I stop beside them she glares at
PAIGE After checking in with the council secretary, I took a seat and waited to be called into the chamber. I am surprised when an elder calls me in after only a few minutes. The a**holes normally like to keep us lowly women waiting for as long as possible. My shoulders back and my head held high, I walked into the council chamber. All twelve men are sitting at a long table, with my grandfather at the head. I take a seat at the bottom of the table. After a few minutes, my grandfather looked up, “ahh yes, Huntress Stevenson, I hope you are fully recovered after your accident.” What a d*ck. “Yes, thank you, Elder Stevenson. I have recovered after the ripper issue.” Take that a**hole. His eyes flashed with annoyance, “yes, there have been more and more sightings of both slippers and rogues in the last few months. The information we have gleaned is that someone powerful is recruiting them.” I must have shown my shock, because he smirked at me. “We think they have been testing our streng

PAIGE Suzy had so few personal belongings, that it only took an hour to pack everything and take the boxes to the office. We popped into our old dorm on the way and let the housekeeping team know we had finished in Suzy's room. They smiled and said that they were just about finished here and would head there after. They thanked us for stripping our beds and leaving our room so clean. I looked at my watch, "it's lunch time girls. Should we go and meet the guys?" Robyn's stomach growled at the idea, making us all laugh as we headed to the dining room. We met Seb and James on the stairs. They were leaning over the banister, Robyn stood next to them and leaned over to see what they were looking at, "What's going on?" The boys turned around and I noticed James giving Suzy a shy smile, mmm, okay so maybe this wasn't a one-way crush. Seb had the biggest smile on his face. "Sssoooooo, Olivia, Gemma and Kate were dragging their heels, so Abrams asked mama Jen to send a team to help them.
PAIGE The poker game was a lot of fun. To start with, Suzy and her friends didn't want to join in as they had no money, but between us we pitched in to give them a stake each. Although Seb now wishes we hadn't, Suzy turned out to be a fucking pro. Apparently, her grandpa was a professional poker player back in the day, and he taught her everything he knew. She ended up walking away with over two hundred dollars. Most of the guys had said goodnight, leaving just me, Robyn, Ryder and Seb. Robyn was talking about how much Suzy had come out of her shell, when a thought came to me. I turned to Ryder, "What you said to Suzy, when we were getting food, that is bollocks right? about getting a food allowance." He looked sheepish. "To be honest, your right, there is no such thing, but watching her trying to work out if she could afford a fucking bread roll pissed me off. I can't believe I missed the fact that some of our scholarship students can't afford to eat properly.So I spoke to dad,
PAIGE Robyn and I enter our room and I change into sweatpants and a vest top. I don't have a lot of choice in my attire, but these will be perfect for an evening of cleaning. I walked into the bedroom, and found Robun on her bed, "I am just going to give my brother a quick call, I'll be on the balcony." She gave me a thumbs up, and I headed outside. "Guys, are you there?" "We are here P, congratulations girl, head girl, we are so proud." hearing Leon's voice makes me grin, goddess, I love these boys. "hey Leon, how is everything going? I hear you are all planning a visit tomorrow." "Yeah, we thought your caring brother would want to make sure his little sis is okay, and we can get a look at what the security team has found. We also need to fill you in on some of the information we have found, so a face-to-face seemed the best option." "I miss you guys, so I am happy you are coming. There are some things I want you to look into as well. Um, is Jared there?" Leon chuckles, "he ha
RYDER I watched as Paige chose her prefects. She is a natural leader, it's like she has done it all her life. I would know I've been trained since birth to become Alpha. I can tell my dad is impressed as well. I must remember to ask him if he can sense anything from her. Mum would be better, but she isn't here, she hates the Snow's. Kemp has just released everyone and Seb, James and I make our way over, to congratulate the three girls. My dad is already there, his hand on Robyn's shoulder, the girls are laughing at something the old man said. As I approach, Paige sees me and giggles, fuck, her giggle is fast becoming my favorite sound. Dad turned and grinned at me. I gave him a side hug, "dad, I hope you are not corrupting my new partner, she is more than capable of creating her own mischief. She could probably give you a run for your money." Dad's booming laugh makes everybody look our way, "I was just telling Paige that it's about time you had some competition for favorite head
