RoseI slowly opened my eyes to reveal that I was back in the safety of Orion’s office. I stared down at the mansion; my fingers lingered over, and hastily, I dropped the map on top of the pile of other maps. Where in the world did I just go? Where in time did I just go? My eyes fell down to the date in the corner of the map, 1921.***Do you want to have dinner together still?*** Harriet’s voice echoed in my mind.***Uh, yeah. Are you getting hungry?*** I responded to her as I stared at the map.***Yes, ma’am, Luna, ma’am *** Harriet sang loudly at me.*** I’ll meet you in the kitchen in a minute.***I walked to the door to leave the office yet stopped to take one last look at the map that laid on Orion’s desk. I nervously chewed on my bottom lip. I slipped into the guest room to grab my premonition journal before making my way towards the kitchen. Harriet was skipping down the stairs as I rounded the corner.“Hey, Rosie Posie! What s

Orion“Hodges.”“When was the last spotted?” I gritted my teeth. Was it a coincidence? Did he just step out of the pack to do an errand? Was he taken as well? Or did he take my mate?“I saw him earlier today, but that was when you guys left this morning. He was on the phone walking in front of the packhouse.” Harriet responded from behind me.“Okay…” I mumbled. I’m sorry, Hodges, but I have to prioritize Rose. She is my mate and the Luna of the pack. “First, I’m going to see if I can track Rose’s scent, and then I’ll worry about Hodges.”“Of course.” Harriet grabbed my wrist and dragged me to my room. “She was in here for a little bit. Rose’s scent is still lingering. Her premonition journal is even on the couch.”“Why is that out? Did she have a premonition?” I walked over to the couch, picking up the journal just to clutch it to my chest before opening it.“Yeah, but it wasn’t one of the crazy ones. Rose said it was like she went in

OrionBrigid and Dr. Thompson were both examining the needle as I left the cabin. Alastor, Harriet, and I lingered over their shoulders for longer than we should have. Damian had already ushered Iris back home before anyone could even suggest it. No one wanted to force her to be a part of this. She had already gone through so much. There was nothing I could do to help figure out what had tainted my mate; I would only be in the way. Eventually, I had to begrudgingly leave it in their more than capable hands.Alastor and Harriet walked a few feet behind me as we made our way back to the packhouse. The rain had slowed to a light sprinkle. I walked in solitude, ignoring the low murmurs of the conversation that was going on behind me. I could have eavesdropped if I wanted to, but it wasn’t worth it right now. Their fear and pity would only make me feel worse. My insides felt like they were whirling away in a washing machine. A flood of emotions was fighting for control alon

Orion“Do you think Hodges would be capable of drugging and kidnapping Rose?”Gaea chewed on the inside of her cheek for a moment as she thought. She took a deep breath before almost whispering out her response, “Yes, I do.”“There you go, Harriet.” Alastor turned to his mate.“I...I...don’t believe it. Why would Hodges?” Harriet stared down at her coffee. Her hands trembled to cause ripples to splash around in her cup.“No one wants to believe someone they know could be capable of this.” I sighed, streaming my fingers through my hair with frustration.Now that Gaea confirmed he could have done this, my mind was set that it had to be him. Hodges would regret the day he set foot in my pack. I let this piece of shit in my pack. I literally welcomed him with open arms. How long had he been plotting this?“Alpha?” Gaea’s voice drew my attention back to the room.“Yes?” I glanced up at my mate’s mother.“Is there something I

Rose"How... how's Iris?" Matt nervously asked."She's good, considering everything that happened," I replied. I let my eyes drift to Pru, wondering what was going through her mind. Did she know about Matt and Iris? Did she know that they were best friends with a sprinkle of lingering romantic feelings?"Good...Hodges said you shaved her head for her….""Yeah…" I trailed off. I know Matt wanted to know about Iris, but part of me couldn't make Pru listen to that. "I have a question.""Shoot.""It's for Pru, not you.""Oh, my bad." Matt fell back onto his elbows on the dingy mattress."What's your question?" Pru's eyes lit up. She seemed to be excited about talking about anything that wasn't focusing on Iris."How did you know that Matt was your mate? Did you know before you met him?" I asked."I'm curious about that, too." Matt leaned over to rest his cheek against Pru's arm."It happened right after I was k
