Bennett’s POV

“Well, well, well, Isn’t it the human who always came in second place…” Hazel smiles a toothy grin as she gives me a sneering look as if I am something disgusting that needs to be taken out with the trash. Her blonde hair swinging with the sway of her hips. Her tight skinned dress is tackier than my grandmother’s couch. ‘Probably made out of the same material.’ I think to myself.

What in the hell is she doing in the North anyway? Wasn’t she supposed to be back in the Crystal Lake Pack with her parents, demoted to Omegas? After what happened with the Alpha King of the States, I thought she was band from traveling. Does Ciara and Alpha Mars know she is here? Shit. I should call them. I move to stand closer to the woman’s bathroom; hoping Hazel’s destination isn’t the same.

“Well, isn’t it the skank who’s been around more times than a Merry Go Around at the state fair.” I smile back as I cross my arms. Hazel and I have been enemies since middle school… debate enemies. We

    Conrad’s POVMy morning has been complete shit since the moment I woke up. First, I didn’t sleep well because of my avoidance behavior situation with Hazel. I knew she was going to try and come to my room last night for sex, and since I THINK I potentially met my mate... Very Male... mate. I didn’t want to do something stupid like sleep with her. Do humans feel the pain of betrayal? I didn’t want to find out and every time she is near me with her floral fragrance, I lose all control of my senses and my dick has a mind of its own. So, I did the only thing a strong Alpha like me could do at that moment. HIDE. I hid in my kids’ room. Hazel wont come near my kids. When I woke up stiff and irritable from sleeping on their floor, I realized I was running late and wasn’t able to meet Dr. Bennet and his team before they went to the hospital like I was hoping too. I wanted my wolf to get another good sniff of him, maybe he got the whole mate thing wrong?‘I smell mate.’ Is all Titus keeps tell

    Conrad’s POVI paced back and forth of my suite, periodically checking the clock on the wall. Five more minutes til I have to meet the doctor for our da… I stopped myself. Nope! Dinner, not date. I ran my hand over my face in frustration. My mind still completely confused. He smelled like my mate, but when I looked into his eyes, I didn’t see mate, but he’s human, so who knows what that means! Ugh! My mind sounded like a broken record. Over and over, the same tune… Uncertainty about whether he was my mate or not.I checked the wall clock again, time to go. With a deep breath, I steel myself for tonight. It was just dinner… Not a date. I walked down the stairs to the ground floor, keeping my eyes peeled for Hazel. I made up some farfetched excuse as to why I couldn’t have dinner with her like she wanted. She seemed to believe me, so I wasn’t going to say much more.Leaning against the railing of the stairs, Bennet stood scrolling through his phone. He was still wearing hospital scrubs.

    Benji’s POVI lifted my arms above my head and stretched out the muscles in my back after being hunched over a microscope and medical reports the last few hours. I squint my eyes to the bright overhead florescent lights of the Lab. Removing my glasses, I decide to close my eyes for a moment to give them a short rest. Visiting patients, taking blood samples, reaching charts – I am exhausted, but nowhere near solving what this disease is.I put my glasses back on and decide to get back to work. My phone pinged with a message. I pulled my phone from my lab coat pocket then smiled. Bennet said he was just about to meet the Alpha. I tried to feel happy for my cousin. Maybe the Alpha was his mate. It isn’t unusual for a human to be mated to a werewolf, but the idea of going back to the states without my cousin felt wrong. I quickly pushed the thoughts away. It was just dinner according to Bennet, so I won’t over think things.“I am telling you! It’s some sort of Zombie disease!” Gray argues

    Conrad's POV Bennet and I walked out of the restaurant in comfortable silence into the chilly night air, then turned in the direction of the hospital. It was about a twenty-minute walk from where we were, so walking wasn’t too bad. It was a bit cold and I noticed that Bennet was shivering slightly even though he was wearing a sweater over his hospital scrubs. The nights in the North were always cold due to the mountain breezes, even during the summer, so I did the chivalry thing and draped my jacket over his shoulders. As a werewolf, our bodies naturally run at a hotter temperature then humans.“Thank you.” He says and pulls it close to his chin. It is the first time he has actually spoken to me without an attitude. I nod with a smile and continue walking.“Alpha…” A woman greets me with a nod then a few more greet me the same way.I return the greeting to several of our pack members who are also out on an evening stroll, but Bennet just quietly walks next to me. He seems to be lost i

    Bennet’s POV“Dr. Mason, Please explain why you and she have the same scent?” Mr. Alpha’s words rang out like a gunshot echoing through the night. No one moved, no one seemed to breathe.Well, this isn’t going as well as my imagination had conjured up a few minutes ago. I thought to myself. Maybe some sort of romance novel action would occur between them. She would run into his arms and he would whisper words of love, kiss her senselessly and they would live happily ever after with a large number of babies. Actually… not too much of that wet sloppy romance because we still need to keep our lab free from contamination.Instead, Bee looks like a deer in headlights and the Alpha looks like he was caught between his lover and his wife. It was pretty comical. Under normal circumstances, I would have laughed, but the tension in the air is thick, so my usual sarcastic banter isn’t appropriate at the moment.I cross my arms over my chest waiting… The standstill was working on my last nerve.

    Benji’s POVParalyzing fear… That is the only emotion I am feeling or that I can comprehend at the moment. A mate. I was given a second chance mate. How is that even possible? Why would the moon goddess grant me a second chance mate? I was already given the best mate a woman could ask for. Gregory was my everything and now I am mated to this Alpha? No, I can’t do this again. I can’t deal with the pull of the mate bond again. I need to leave. I need to escape this feeling.I feel a soft brush of fingers against my arm, shattering the frozen barrier around my mind. Bennet is looking at me with a concerned look. He is waiting for me to do something, anything. His expression softens when I give him a pleading look. A look filled with more emotions than I can even express. He knows I need to separate myself. The anxiety is building and I don’t think I can handle breaking down in front of everyone.I swiftly escape through the double doors of the lab. The doors swing open with a bang, echoi

    Third Person POV“Dammit! I was so close!” I work my way through the dense woods as I made my swift exit from the hospital, the sound of leaves and small twigs crackling underneath my boots is the only sound that accompanies me. I know I am not being followed which is my only consolation prize of the night. The deeper into the darkness I walk, the more I berate myself for that sliver of an opportunity I lost. It had slipped through my fingers like grains of sand. I clench and unclench my fists over and over, the desire to kill just below the surface of my rage.I had gone to the hospital just out of pure gut feeling. I pretended I was mopping the floors as I listened with my wolf hearing to the conversation inside the lab. I learned that damn doctor discovered the blood samples were different from the originals. Guess she was smarter than I thought. I need a way to sabotage the equipment and computers. It may not stop them from discovering the truth about the illness, but it will slow

    Benji’s POVHazel Summers… Hazel Summers who almost ruined my best friend Ciara’s life… is here in the North?! What the hell? I reach into my memory bank to remember what happened to her after the court trial. She was tried for treason against the crown over five years ago. Wasn’t she supposed to go back to her pack with her parents and serve as Omegas? I know they were stripped of their Gamma roles but can’t remember anything other than that. Does Alpha King Mars know Hazel is here?! I will have to contact him later and find out.My mind is whirling with questions, but I can barely think straight. An overpowering floral smell is messing with my senses and it is absolutely awful, like someone bathed In dollar store perfume.“YOU!”I look up to see an angry Hazel pointing her long-manicured finger in my direction. She’s barely wearing a deep purple dress. I guess things haven’t changed in high school. She still dresses like a five-dollar hooker.Hazel is still sitting on the Alpha Conr

    Benji’s POVJust beyond the tree line were three male rogues in their human forms. their growling and snarling callously echoed through the open field. Their claws extending from their fingertips and their eyes glowing a crimson red. There was something off about these men because they were attacking each other in a vicious brawl, completely unaware that they trespassed on pack lands.‘Artemis…’ I spoke through my pack’s mind-link.‘Hey Sherlock, what’s up?’ Artemis’ cheery tone filled my head, but I was nothing close to feeling cheery at the moment. My heart was pounding out of my chest.‘Rogues behind the hospital. I am here with two pups. Call the alpha and bring help.’ I didn’t give her a chance to respond when I cut the mind-link so I could focus on the rogues’ movements. They were still enthralled in their fight with each other which at the moment, I was thankful for.“Finnley…” I say softly without moving a muscle from where I stood watching the rogues. “I need you to calmly wa

    Benji’s POV‘Whoa, whoa, whoa…. My pups!? Dehlia, are you nuts!? We don’t even know these kids! Their parents are probably working or something since it is still early in the afternoon. We can’t claim them!’ I spat at my wolf still reeling by her proclamation. She swished her tail at me in irritation. She snorted threw her snout at me and I was taken back by her attitude. I felt a bit of pain in my heart hearing her want to claim these children as her own. We had lost ours and Gregory’s pup the night he died. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was still hurting like I was and this was her trying to fill the void we both were feeling.Dehlia had been more active since Conrad kissed me in the lab. She still wasn’t as chatty as she was over five years ago, but she was more active especially when we were texting with Conrad. It was like his wolf transferred some of his energy into her during our kiss. I knew the mate bond was slowly healing my wolf. Even though I didn’t know how I felt about

    Benji’s POVIt’s been a few days since the conversation with Alpha Conrad and his squad at the lab about Hazel and my breakthrough of the illness. My team and I rarely left the lab and hospital except for sleep. Meals and snacks were brought to us regularly by Dr. Lancon who insists we call him “Doc” Now that we are friends.Beta Sean eventually returned to the lab with a freshly cut lip, a black eye and an apology on his lips. He returned a few times in the following days. He would speak quietly to Ashley but she just simply nodded her head before turning her back to him. I wasn’t sure what he spoke to her about but I don’t think it went well because eventually he stopped showing up. I thought Ashley would be flustered by the sudden radio silence from Beta Sean, but she didn’t show any emotions about it. Just focused on the work we were doing.Conrad and I haven’t seen each other in days, but he texted me regularly. We were on a permanent loop of a twenty-questions game. I always smi

    Benji’s POVCluster! That was the key word… My filing cabinets in my head shuffled around, sorting through the years of information I have gathered and stored in them. Medical, human, magical, werewolf, it all fit together. To say it was a light bulb moment of realization would be an understatement. It was an explosion of brain waves colliding into each other putting all the pieces into place!“Where the hell is my marker!” I shouted out to myself. Cluster, cluster, I kept mumbling the words while my brain is opening everything. My once organized mind is now a hurricane of stored knowledge recking havoc. The periodic table of the elements flash through my brain waves, picking the elements off one by one like fruit off a tree. ‘Cobalt, No… Krypton… No, Livermorium… No!’ Protons, neutrons, electrons all come together then dissect then move over and recombine. Patterns, shapes, colors… Clusters, Clusters, Clusters.I find the black marker I have been desperately looking for and move towa

    Conrad’s POV“Go back to my office, now!” I let my Alpha aura surround everyone, except Benji. I am furious with Sean. How could my Beta speak like that, especially with HIS mate in the room. I always tried to understand his hatred towards State wolves extended deeply because of the way his father abandoned his mother with two young pups, but his accusations crossed the line today.Sean turned on his heel and stormed out like a whirlwind of fury. Thankfully all the doors in the hospital are on hydraulics so he couldn’t slam it behind him or he would have been in real trouble. The door closed with a soft swoosh, very melodramatic if you ask me. After a few seconds, Shamus and Canice bowed their heads towards Benji and filed out. I turned back to Benji to see her looking down at the floor deep in thought. I hope she didn’t think I felt the way Sean did about state wolves. “I… I’m sorry… for his actions. He’s got some deep-rooted family drama towards state wolves.”She nods her head, b

    Benji’s POV“Ok, OK, Mr. Comedian. Thank you for the comical relief.” I roll my eyes but can’t stop the smile on my face. For the first time in a long time, my smile reaches my eyes and it’s a genuine smile. I look at Conrad and he is staring back at me with such intense eyes that my knees want to buckle. There’s a hint of a smirk on his beautiful kissable lips. Dammit, I wish he would stop looking at me because I feel a dramatic swoon coming on. Thankfully I am already holding on to the side of the lab table.Delta Canice takes the small vile from my hand and looks at it curiously. “So, you think Hazel is spelling Conrad with this? Why? How do you even know that damn woman?”I take a deep breath; we are at the point that the situation can go two different ways. They could believe me or they could think I am lying and send me to the jails. Not sure how this pack works, but we are about to find out.“Yes, I do. And to answer your second question, Hazel and I went to school together. Sh

    Conrad’s POV“I think I need my alpha squad for this tale…” I say to the most beautiful woman in front of me. I can tell she is irritated with what I said about Hazel being treated poorly in her old pack. When she first arrived here with her parents, Hazel use to wake up crying and rush to me in the middle of the night when she had nightmares about how she was treated at Crystal Lake. I used to console her and that’s how we started dating. Come to think of it, she hasn’t had nightmares in a while. Could it all been a rue to get my attention? I mind-link my men to come to the laboratory.“Bennet texted asking if you or your squad want any coffee.” Benji asks, looking down at her phone. Her caramel color blonde hair covers part of her face and I don’t like it. I reach out and tuck a few of the loose strands behind her ear just behind the rim of her glasses. “Do you always wear glasses?” I ask, keeping my eyes fixated on the perfect curves of her cheeks and lips.She blushes and bites

    Benji’s POV“That bitch! That skanky, cheaper than a two-dollar whore, bitch!” Bennet was seething. His face was scrunched up, ready to explode as he reviewed the results of the exam Gray had just printed out. “I am going to rip her to shreds! I will pull out her fake ass extensions and bitch slap her with them til next Tuesday… NO Next Friday!!”Ashley leans closer to me, her eyes filled with concern. “Is he normally a violent person? Because I don’t want my books being hurt.”I pressed my lips together to stifle a laugh. I knew Bennet, he was more words then actions. I also have been at the other end of those words before so I know he is capable of doing some damage when he is upset. I shook my head hoping that would ease some of her worries. She seemed to relax some, but did take a few steps back from being in the vicinity of Bennet’s rampage.“Are we sure these results are accurate? I mean computers are as reliable as the ice cream maker at McDonald’s at times.” Bennet says still

Hazel refuses to give me space, so I had to alpha command her to stay home and not come to work or the packhouse for the next five days. I ended up getting into a vocal confrontation with Bennet and that Gray guy over Hazel, so I wasn’t able to go after Benjamina to explain what was happening with Hazel. But what could I say to explain? I don’t even know what happened.In addition, I wasn’t able to take my twins to dinner like I promised because there was an emergency at the high school. Two werewolves went feral and attacked a bunch of people, so I had one of the Omegas get them a quick dinner which ended up being Mcdonalds. Falon spent part of the night throwing up from it. The warriors and I were up all night trying to find the two feral wolves because they had disappeared into the forest.Now I am standing In front of
