last update Last Updated: 2024-08-13 22:12:43

AMELIA’S P.O.V

It felt like absolute bliss to wake up in Kaden’s arms. At first, I thought it was a dream. There was one recurring dream I had been having where I would wake up being held by him, he would kiss me slowly and when I opened my eyes, I would be alone in my room. It made my heart burn and that was why when I felt his lips against mine, I didn’t want to open my eyes.

“Wake up, baby,” he cooed but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I didn’t want the dream to end.

“Will you be here when I open my eyes?” I whispered and I felt his fingers run through my hair softly.

“I’m not going anywhere,” he assured me and I forced my eyes open only to find Kaden smiling down at me. “Hey there, baby. Did you sleep well?”

I managed a small nod. I was sore all over and looking down at myself, I could see all the bite marks and the indentations of Kaden’s hands on my skin. It was like art and I wished I could frame it so I could stare at it over again. I wasn’t sure when we managed to fall asle

    AMELIA’S P.O.VIt was always a pleasure to see how Clara’s powers with the birds worked. I watched her in complete and utter awe as she sat cross legged on the floor looking for any piece of information to tell us where Aaron was.It didn’t take as long as I expected it to. One second, she was silent and the next, she was on her feet and giving me directions as I drove. I felt something akin to anticipation the closer we got to the pack house. Aaron was the closest link I had to my family and I wanted to know everything. I knew I could trust him, my wolf told me as much but there was still a little bit of apprehension, especially when I thought about the fact that I didn’t tell Kaden where I was going.There was no doubt that he was going to be pissed but my curiosity was far greater than the prospect of upsetting him.The guards were shocked to see us. They looked between Clara and I and I could tell they weren’t sure how to react. They were stationed in front of Aaron’s room.“Are y

    BLAKE’S P.O.VIt had only taken a few days to get things in order and those few days were the longest of my life. Every passing second felt like an hour and it took all my self control to not just barge onto their pack but I knew that if I was going to make this work then I needed to do it once and do it well.“I think this is a bad idea,” Sam drawled. We were in a small tent in the woods. She hadn’t wanted to come with me at first, but I trusted her more than the others which was horrible considering I couldn’t trust her as far as I could throw her. “I don’t trust your source. Besides, this is Alpha Kaden we are talking about. He will come here first.”“I can handle Kaden,” I spat and although she went silent, I could tell she still didn’t agree.I looked around taking in everyone’s faces and I could see that they all agreed with her. I know Kaden is powerful, I had spent all my life hearing about the notorious Alpha Kaden but I had an advantage. I had his cousin. I could slip in and

    KADEN’S P.O.VThe urge to find Amelia was overwhelming. I had heard about mates not wanting to be separated after being marked but I had never experienced it before. It was even worse than I had thought.We hadn’t even been away from each other for two hours and already I wanted to find her. I wanted to bend he rover my desk and fuck her until we both couldn’t breathe, I wanted to inhale her scent and feel her against me. It wasn’t even just about fucking her, I just wanted her. I wanted her around me, I wanted her next to me, I wanted her in the air that I breathe.I didn’t want to call her yet, I didn’t want to scare her or make her run. She had barely forgiven me and I was still making amends for all the shit I had done so I sent her lunch and flowers. I had sent it a while ago, I was just waiting for her call. It was pathetic how I held my phone in her hands waiting eagerly to see her name on my screen.When it started to ring, I didn’t even wait to see who was calling before answ

    AMELIA’S P.O.VMy head was pounding. It felt like someone had taken a sledgehammer to my skull and had turned it into their personal construction ground. I lifted a hand to my face trying to block out the bright rays of light hitting me. I wasn’t sure what had happened but I felt immensely weak. It felt like a chore to even open my eyes.I couldn’t feel my wolf which was weird. That sound have been the first red flag to me but I felt too weak to even think about it. I peeled my eyes open slowly expecting to find myself in my room but I didn’t recognize my surroundings. I immediately shot to a sitting position ignoring the pounding in my head.I was in a room, but it wasn’t mine. The walls were made of wood that was chipped, the bed looked like it was barely holding onto itself. The place looked old and dusty. I looked around wondering what the hell had happened when the memories slammed into me at record speed. I remembered Clara telling me that someone was coming and I remembered the

    AMELIA’S P.O.VBlake kept a close eye on me while I ate. He walked towards the kitchen to give me a semblance of space but even I knew to take that with a grain of salt. I had already eaten most of the food and so far, nothing had happened so it was safe to say that it wasn’t poisoned.My wolf was already rousing and she had regained very little of her strength but I could feel her going around in my mind. She was just as antsy as I was about the situation. It was unknown territory and I wasn’t sure how to act about this. The Blake I knew before would never have kidnapped a girl. So much had changed about him.“Are you done?” he asked snapping me out of my thoughts. I wasn’t done by a long shot but my appetite was gone so I handed him the plate. “Did you enjoy it? I know I’m not a great cook but I think I did a good job.”“It was great, thank you,” I gave him a small smile. All I could do was play nice in the hopes that I would find a way out. “Where are we, Blake? You never told me.”

    KADEN’S P.O.VWe searched the pack for the entire day. I didn’t sleep, didn’t eat, if breathing wasn’t an involuntary action, I wasn’t sure I would have even remembered to breathe. With each passing second, I knew that Amelia wasn’t in the pack but that didn’t stop me from searching.I combed every inch of the pack down to the hidden pockets in the woods but I couldn’t find her. I couldn’t even get a whiff of her scent. It was like she had just disappeared off the surface of the earth. I knew that was impossible. Whoever had taken her had just done a very good job of hiding their scents.It was around ten when I finally returned to the hospital. Everyone was there because of Clara. I didn’t even know how she was doing until I walked in. She had a bandage around her head and an IV in her hands but she looked fine. When I walked in, they took one look at my expression and Pamela burst into tears.Devin struggled to console her but I kept my attention fixed on Clara. “What happened?”I k

    AMELIA’S P.O.VI couldn’t fall asleep the entire time that Blake was behind me. I wasn’t sure if it was the unfamiliarity of the room, the fact that I missed Kaden, the fear or the boner that pressed into my back. Whatever it was, I couldn’t bring myself to actually fall asleep.Blake fell asleep and woke up, the entire time, I was just staring at the wall opposite me. As soon as he was awake, he tucked my hair behind my ear and placed a soft kiss on my neck. Bile crawled up my throat and I could feel my wolf fighting to push him off but I managed to keep her at bay. I wasn’t going to risk upsetting the person that held me captive in case he injected me again.“How long have you been awake?” he asked and I shrugged. “It still feels surreal to see you here with me, Amelia. I had lost hope that this would ever happen again. Kaden kept you well hidden. Tell me about everything that happened while you were there.”I opened my mouth but no words would come out. I wasn’t sure what exactly h

    KADEN’S P.O.VIt was almost as if they were expecting us. I wouldn’t have been surprised if they were, Caleb had a knack for making sure that everything was settled even before I realized that it was a problem. We were welcomed into the pack without a hitch and upon arriving at the pack house, we were welcomed by a woman I did not recognize.She had long brown hair and her eyes, albeit soft and doe like held a sense of power that I didn’t recognize. Judging by her scent, she didn’t have any title, she was a normal wolf, but the guards seemed to answer to her.“I didn’t know we would be expecting visitors,” her voice was husky, almost like a caress. It was the kind of voice that brought weaker men to their knees and she knew it.I didn’t need to think any further to know that she was probably someone’s mistress. She knew the power she held in her hands and she had spent years honing her skills. She wasn’t one to be underestimated, that was for sure. If it were another time, I would hav

    KADEN’S P.O.VAs soon as Caleb drove off with Amelia, I felt someone slap me upside the head.There were only a handful of people who would dare to do that- my mother, Amelia and Pamela- I didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.“You idiot,” Pamela hissed. “What were you thinking? She told you to stop multiple times and you kept going. Did you not hear when she said she would hate you?”I did hear her actually, I just convinced myself that she was upset and it would be fine after. I didn’t realize that she meant it or I would have stopped. It was a shitty excuse and I knew it made me a fucking terrible mate as well.“I know I messed up,” I ran my hands through my hair in frustration. “I’ll make it up to her.”Pamela scoffed. “You stupid child, this is more than just making it up to her. After everything she went through, you were meant to be her safe place and you hurt her. This isn’t just about you outing her in public, you betrayed her trust. She has no one right now.”“That’

    AMELIA’S P.O.VI walked out of the dining room and out the front door.I knew I was being a tad bit unreasonable but it pissed me off to no end that he couldn’t just trust me. I didn’t want to have that conversation in front of everyone, I didn’t want that part of my life out there. We were having a child together for goddess sake and yet, he couldn’t just listen to me.“Amelia!” Kaden’s voice echoed through the air as he rushed over to me. “Baby, please, just wait.”I ignored him and heads straight for my car. My guards were nowhere to be seen. They must have left after Kaden arrived. It didn’t matter to me anyway, I could drive. It was a terrifying thought to go home alone but I was going to do it. I wasn’t going to sit back and give him the satisfaction.I got to the door of my car when he placed a hand on the car door. “Please, Amelia, let me just talk to you, please.”“I have nothing to say to you,” I crossed my arms over my chest without looking at him. “Just go, okay? I don’t w

    AMELIA’S P.O.VClara didn’t say a single word regarding my conversation with Aaron. I could tell she was thinking about it though. She was many things but stupid was not one of it. She knew exactly what that conversation was about and I expected more questions from her but there was nothing.“Do you want to come in?” was the first thing she asked when we got to her house. “My grandparents are home but that’s about it. They’ve missed you. They might want to say hi.”I didn’t want to take the offer but I also realized how cruel it was that I hadn’t come to see them yet. They took me in when they didn’t have to and treated me like their own grandchild. Before I could talk myself out of it, I nodded and followed her up to the front door.My palms were clammy and it felt like my chest was closing in on me but I forced myself to walk into the house. It smelled the same and looked the same, nothing had changed since the last time I was inside. It almost felt like I had never left.“Clara are

    AMELIA’S P.O.VClara and I sat down on the wooden chairs while Aaron remained at the edge of the bed. He looked better than the last time I saw him, much better actually.“You haven’t used your powers in a while,” he didn’t waste any time before going straight to the point. “Both of you, not just you, Amelia.”I shrugged. “My wolf was drugged for weeks and I just haven’t had a reason to recently.”“You will soon.”It sounded more like an ominous warning than anything and I wanted to ask more about what he meant but he had already turned away from me and was facing Clara. She had her hands folded neatly in her laps and her face was cast down.“I just didn’t want to,” she shrugged. It was clear she was very uncomfortable with the direction of the conversation.She already told me why so she didn’t need to tell him, especially if she didn’t want to. Besides, I was concerned with how he knew that we hadn’t used our powers in a while. We didn’t talk about it outside his door so there was n

    AMELIA’S P.O.VI regretted my words the moment I saw the three guards that Kaden had arranged for me.He had a smile of pride on his face once they arrived and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. They were quite possibly the biggest and scariest men I had ever seen in my life. One of them had tattoos all over his arm, the other had a mean resting face that could make a grown man piss his pants. The third didn’t look as scary as the others but his sheer size alone was enough to make a person pause.“These are your guards,” he gestured to the men in front of me. “They’ll take you to Clara’s house first and you can go wherever you want after.”I crossed my arms over my chest and stared at him blankly. “Are you serious?”“You said as many as I want. I wanted to get you four guards but I figured it would be too much.”“And you don’t think three is a little over the top?”“It’s this or nothing, baby.”I let out an exasperated sigh before turning to the guards. “Fine.”Neither of them broke

    AMELIA’S P.O.VI was done hiding.If Blake was willing to leave his pack despite not having his wolf then he was a greater foe than I knew and I couldn’t just sit on my ass and wait for him to attack whenever he felt like. He wasn’t backing down anytime soon, I knew that much. I saw the look in his eyes yesterday and I knew what it was. It was a look of pure determination. I knew that it wasn’t about what I wanted anymore or about what he presumed to be a mate bond, this was about an Alpha whose ego was just bruised.I embarrassed him and made him look weak and he wanted me back to show that he wasn’t. I was the shiny trophy that he wanted to keep in a display and I’d be damned if I let him do that to me. He couldn’t control my life- not anymore at least.For the first time since I returned, I woke up earlier than Kaden and made my way down to the kitchen to make breakfast. It felt so good to be back in my own house, barefoot in my kitchen and able to do whatever I wanted.I had bare

    KADEN’S P.O.VBlake was a fucking coward.For someone who was brave enough to keep my mate for days, he ran off like a fucking wuss when he realized that he didn’t have his wolf to fight for him.I made sure to comb the entire border to ensure that he was not lurking around. The last thing I wanted was for someone else to go missing. It was torturous enough searching for Amelia, I wasn’t sure I had it in me to search for someone else.As soon as I was sure that Blake wasn’t hiding anymore, I rushed over to Amelia. Her mind was quiet which wasn’t unusual. Ever since she returned, she preferred to stay on her own with her thoughts. I hated it but I knew it would take some time before she went back to the way she was- if she ever did. If she never went back, I didn’t care, I just wanted her.The moment I got to the car, I knew something was wrong. Caleb was standing next to the car but his brows were furrowed in deep thought. He looked somewhat relieved when he saw me but when I asked, h

    AMELIA’S P.O.VI didn’t realize just how badly my legs were shaking until I got to the car. I had barely reached it when my legs gave out and I had to grip it so as not to hit the ground.“Shit, are you okay?” Caleb was at my side in an instant but he hesitated to touch me. “Do you need me to call Kaden?”I shook my head. “I’m fine, I swear, I just- I didn’t know how scary it would be to see him after everything.”Caleb assessed me warily but said nothing. I slowly sank to the ground not having the energy in me to open the car. Besides, the grass was much softer and it was fresh, the wind was blowing and I could feel the breeze on my face. I didn’t feel caged anymore and I needed to remember that.“Do you want some water?” he asked and I nodded.I watched as he reached into the backseat of the car and retrieved a water bottled. It smelled like him so it was obviously his but I couldn’t bring myself to be picky. I just uncapped it and downed the water. My heart was pounding violently i

    AMELIA’S P.O.VWe sat in the tub until our skin started to prune. True to his words, Kaden didn’t say a word as we got out of the tub. He didn’t even speak as we ate lunch or dinner. I thought he had forgotten and a part of me was relieved because I knew that whatever he wanted to say had to do with Blake.My relief lasted until sometime around ten when there was a frantic knock on our door. I glanced at Kaden who looked to be as confused as I felt. He gestured for me to remain seated while he went to check it out but he should have known better because as soon as he was out the door, I was behind him.“Amelia,” he hissed but I waved him off.I was dressed in lounge pants and a loose shirt. I was prepared for whatever it could be. He muttered something under his breath that sounded similar to ‘goddess help me’.“Stay here,” he told me once I got to the bottom of the steps. I pursed my lips but I was close enough to see the door so I waited.He pulled the door open and I could feel th
