Gray I remember being so excited for my first full moon run, years ago. My parents hyped it up, and I was convinced that I’d find my mate on my first run after I turned eighteen. I didn’t, but I still felt like the world was filled with so many more possibilities. A few months later, my parents were dead, and I guess my optimism died with them. I’ve been on countless full moon runs since then, but now they’re all about pack bonding. Finding a mate is rarely on my mind anymore.Because the squad complex is in such close proximity to my pack’s town, we invite the squad to run with us on the full moon. Our pack’s small, so it’s nice to have more numbers to run with, and the recruits that stay behind are always welcome, too. Only twelve or so of the recruits stayed behind this time, and they’re all males. Shocker.We all gather at the packhouse at dusk, and I’m gre

FALLON It sucks that I’m assigned to patrol the night we get back. The bus doesn’t arrive back at the squad complex until dusk, so I basically have to hop off and report. I’m a little panicked when I get off the bus and see that the patrols are already grouping up- I don’t want to be late and keep them waiting.I feel a little bit of relief when I see Vienna getting off of her bus because at least I won’t be the only one holding up our patrol. I head Vienna’s way and I’m intercepted by Connor, who offers to take our bags in to the barracks for us so we can head right over to our group.  Such a nice guy.Vienna and I hustle over to where Brock and Casey are standing, and I notice that Brock looks a little irritated for being kept waiting. Then again, the guy has never been very warm and fuzzy.“Ready?” he asks as we approach, and Vienna and I both mumble in t

FALLON   News of the border breach spreads like wildfire through the squad complex the next morning. They never found the guy, but they’ve concluded that he was a rogue based upon his scent and the determination that he was traveling alone for the miles that they tracked him. That should be some consolation, but I’ve still got a sick feeling about the whole thing since I was the one that had the misfortune to stumble upon him. I can’t stew about it for long, though, because as soon as we get out onto the field for morning session, I see that the giant whiteboard is back. Rankings time. Only Gray and Theo are on the field today, standing in front of the whiteboard with their arms folded across their chests like bouncers at a club. Big, muscly, super hot bouncers… Not even Gray’s sexy physique can hold my attention, though- not when that whiteboard behind him is basically going to spell out my future. I’ve

FALLON   As soon as I walk into the dining hall that evening, the smell of grilled chicken hits my nose and I start salivating. I worked up a hell of an appetite today training with Judd as my partner. I’m still glad I’m partnered with him, but fighting opposite him is way more challenging than sparring with Olly was. If my exhaustion and aching muscles are any indication, I’ve gotta step it up again if I want to hold my place in the rankings. I’m still on cloud nine about the rankings. My hard work is finally paying off and the alphas are actually recognizing what I can do, what I’ve worked so hard for. I didn’t train every weeknight for the past three years to get cut from training camp; I did it because I want to be on the squad more than anything. As I feel myself getting closer to making that dream a reality, nothing can bring me down. Except maybe Hannah. She’s been nasty in every interaction I’ve had with her toda

FALLON   Gray’s words hit me like a ton of bricks, knocking all of the air out of me. He kicked me out?! My eyes swim with tears as I turn tail and run from the dining hall back to the barracks, overwhelmed by the enormous sense of loss I feel. The loss of my dream to make the squad, the loss of Gray. It’s too much. As soon as I reach the barracks, I can’t hold it back anymore and I burst into tears. I’m half blinded by them as I make my way to my bunk, stooping down to pull my suitcase out from underneath. My whole body hurts- it’s like the gut-wrenching pain of Gray’s words is manifesting physically. It feels like there’s an empty hole in my chest where my hope used to reside. My body is wracked with sobs as I unzip my suitcase, flinging it open. I stomp around to the little open closet at the end of the bunk, pull on a t-shirt and shorts, and start yanking my clothes off of the hangers and throwing th

GRAY   I’ve been pacing in my room at the squad barracks since I left the dining hall.  My wolf is still furious, on edge, ready to tear to the surface. I should go run. Jax took Hannah to the infirmary, but her arm was already starting to heal. She’ll be fine soon enough and won’t even have a scar to show for it. Me, on the other hand… I’m not sure if my wolf will ever forgive me for sending Fallon away. I haven’t forgotten the way that Hannah was glaring at Fallon on the practice field this morning. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was the one who instigated the fight. Still, that doesn’t excuse Fallon’s behavior. I can’t let her get away with something like that just because my wolf wants her. What kind of leader would I be if I let my personal relationships get in the way of pack safety? I decide to go for a run. Thoughts of Fallon must be seeping into my subconscious, because I swear I can smell her as I

GRAY   “Well, what’s the word?” Theo asks as I approach him and the other guys in the arena the next morning. I asked them to meet me here a little early so we could discuss what happened last night and make sure they’re okay with reinstating Fallon. I have a feeling Brock’s going to push back, so I’m already bracing myself for the worst. “Good morning to you, too,” I grumble, settling my hands on my hips. My eyes are heavy from lack of sleep- I was tossing and turning all night, regretting how things ended with Fallon and dreading this conversation. “I assume you all know what I want to talk about,” I say, looking around at Jax, Brock, Reid, and Theo. Jax cracks a smile. “Yeah, we figured it was about what your girl did last night.” I sigh, staring at the ground and kicking at the dirt. “Yeah.” I wish the fight between Hannah and Fallon hadn’t happened, and I wish even more that it wasn’t over me. The wh

Fallon Wednesday night rolls around and I’m assigned to patrol again. I worry that things will be a little awkward with Vienna since I took her out of the tournament this afternoon, but she doesn’t hold a grudge. She’s a fucking delight, as usual, which somehow makes my victory even more hollow.The tournament has been awesome so far. Everyone got their first match in over the past two afternoons, and the victors are moving on to the next round tomorrow. Davis wound up losing his matchup against Judd, but since there was an odd number of victors advancing, the alphas threw us all a curveball and chose one of the losers to move on, too. Davis got the wildcard vote from them, which he totally deserved- he put up a hell of a fight against Judd.Boyd’s advancing, too- he gave Connor a lot of shit for losing his matchup against Shay yesterday, but now he’s shaking in his boots a little because he&r

GRAY   I almost take Brock’s head off when he fills me in on everything that happened last night. I was alerted that the rogue was back right after he was spotted, but he conveniently left out the part about Fallon being attacked. Probably because he knew I’d rage out, and I guess he thought that was better left to after we set a plan in motion to track down the rogue. We still haven’t found him, which makes matters even worse. That just means the threat’s still out there, lurking, and could reappear at any time. I’ve got my best guys out there trying to track him down, but so far, I haven’t heard anything. I’m on edge, ready to explode at any moment. We need to get this rogue situation handled, and we aren’t going to do that by sitting around and waiting for him to attack again. If we don’t wind up finding him today, we’ll need to regroup, get a new plan in motion. For that, we’ll need Fallon. A knock comes at m

FALLON   It may have gotten off to a rough start, but now I swear I’m having the best goddamn week of my life. Yesterday’s little rendezvous with Gray was by far the hottest sexual experience I’ve ever had, even if it was interrupted before we could seal the deal. Now I know for sure that this thing isn’t over between us, despite what he said before. Yesterday proved that he wants me every bit as badly as I want him, and when I want something, I fucking go for it. No, this definitely isn’t over, and I’m eagerly awaiting the next time we’re alone. Having an alpha punch my v-card will be a pretty epic way to lose it. I was riding the high of my little tryst with Gray when I entered the arena to face off against Brennan yesterday, and my wolf absolutely destroyed his. The alphas didn’t even have to deliberate- I was the clear winner, which means I’ve moved on to the next stage of the tournament. They threw in another wildcard to ac
