Chapter 11-Meeting Nick Teresi

We arrive back at the compound with no issues at 4pm and find Alpha Peter waiting for us out the front of the pack house. “Let’s go into my office,” he says as we get out of the SUV, so we follow him inside. Alpha Peter closes the door behind us when we enter his office and then walks around his desk and sits in his chair, and Jason and I sit across from him. “So, what exactly happened today, Jason?” Alpha Peter asks. “I told you most of it over the phone, Alpha. I noticed the car pull onto the highway shortly after we did, but I didn’t think anything of it at first. It wasn’t until they sped up and started tailgating us, that I felt something was off. Then, when they managed to run us off the road, Athena chased after the one that shot at us,” he says, looking at me. “Yes, it looked like it was the private investigator, Derek, that I told you about,” I tell Alpha Peter. “It would seem that he wants me dead. Which would explain why he disappeared after sending me to meet with a hu

Chapter 12-Early Morning Meeting

I’m woken the next morning by someone knocking on the door. “Athena? Are you awake?” I groan when I realize it’s Jason. I turn over, look at the time on my phone, and groan again. It’s 4:30am. “It’s too early,” I yell out and roll back over, hiding my head under the blankets. “I’m coming in,” he says, and I hear the door open. I sit up in a huff and rub my eyes. “Jason, I’ve barely slept. What’s so important that it couldn’t wait until later?“ I ask. “I wanted to make sure we were okay,” he says, blushing, and gives me an awkward smile as he sits at the end of the bed. “Why wouldn’t we be?” I ask as I pull my hair back into a ponytail. “Well, because we almost… And then I found Jess, my mate…,” he trails off. “Oh, I see. Did you tell her about yesterday?“ I ask, not able to hide my embarrassment. Jason blushes again and says, “I did, but she understands it didn’t get far.” “Well, she has absolutely nothing to worry about. Yesterday was a crazy day, and I’m thrilled for you

Chapter 13-A Run In The Woods

Alpha Peter stands in front of his Gamma. “Stand down, Richard!” He yells, his alpha aura radiating from his body. “Athena is not a threat!” Gamma Richard bows his head, submitting to the Alpha, but he growls in my direction. “Listen to your Alpha, Gamma. You don’t want this fight,” Enyo says cooly. “Enyo, you’re not helping,” Jason says. Enyo shrugs and looks back to the Gamma with a smirk. “Shift back now!” Alpha Peter orders him. Gamma Richard shifts back and kneels in front of Alpha Peter. “I’m sorry, Alpha,” he says and bows his head. “You need to tell me exactly what Doctor Shields has been telling you, Richard,” Alpha Peter tells him. “He approached me about a month ago and said that things were happening that could impact our pack and that it would be up to me to protect us. He said that outsiders would come to the pack that would endanger all of us, and they couldn’t be trusted,” he says. “Has this been told to anyone else in this room?” Alpha Peter asks, looking

Chapter 14-A Strangers Point Of View

‘We need to find an Alpha and a pack, Andreas. I can’t continue to be a rogue. We’re pack animals. This is killing me,’ Ares says dejectedly, as we run through the trees at the back of the Moonstone pack territory. ‘I know, buddy. But it’s not safe. We can’t return home, and joining a pack puts them in danger. So instead, we need to concentrate on finding out who attacked our pack and why. And we need to find the other lycans that are like us.’ ‘I know,’ he sighs. ‘Do you think Athena is still here?’ ‘Noah said that she left the motel with the pack Beta, so I assume they came back here. Hopefully, the old man at reception gave her our number.’ ‘Do you think she’ll call?’ ‘I probably wouldn’t with what’s been happening.’ Ares stops suddenly, his hackles raised. ‘Someone is coming. If their warriors see us coming this way, they will attack,’ Ares warns. ‘We need to get off their territory. Over there, up the hill a bit,’ I instruct Ares. He turns in that direction, running back

Chapter 15-Pack Meeting

Enyo goes back to where she can still smell the scent and says, ‘I’m telling you, Athena! It’s our mate!’ ‘I’ve told you before, Enyo! We don’t have time for a mate!’ ‘You don’t get to decide that! Just because you’re having issues with the Moon Goddess doesn’t mean I am!’ she growls, still sniffing around, trying to find the scent again. Donny whimpers and shifts, and Nick walks over to us. “What’s happening? Why did you take off like that?” He asks with worry in his voice. I force the shift and look around the area to see if anyone else is around, but it’s definitely just the two of us. “Enyo thinks we caught the scent of our mate,” I explain. “All the way out here? I think we’re close to the edge of the packs’ territory,” he says, looking around. Enyo whimpers. ‘I’m sure it was our mate, Athena. You can’t deny us our mate. You know what that does to a wolf,’ she says sadly. “She’s sure,” I say, a pang of guilt washing over me. “This concerns me, Athena. Why would someon

Chapter 16-A Visitor In The Night

Three days later “Wake up, bitch,” a voice whispers in my ear. My eyes flutter open, and I feel something sharp at my neck. “What the fu…,” I start to say, but a hand covers my mouth. “Say another word, and you’re dead. Got it?” the voice warns. I nod as my eyes adjust in the dark, and I realize Catherine’s face is only inches away from mine. “My dad is being banished because of you,” she spits, the anger in her voice like venom. ‘Shift, Athena,’ Enyo growls. ‘Not yet,’ I tell her. “I’m going to kill you for what you’ve done to my family,” she whispers as she trails a knife down my throat. I try not to make a sound as wolfsbane burns my skin anywhere the blade touches. “But first, I’m going to make you suffer.” A sick smile forms on her face as she cuts my arm, and I gasp from the pain as the wolfsbane enters my system, the burning feeling excruciating. She cuts me again, but this time on my stomach. I try not to scream as tears fill my eyes. “Look at you writhe in pain

Chapter 17-Questions

“Athena…? Athena, wake up, honey.” I groan as I open my eyes and see my mom standing over me. “Mom? What’s wrong?” “Nothing, sweetheart. The doctor just needs to look at your eye,” she tells me as the door to the room opens and Doctor Connors comes in. “Where am I?” I ask Doctor Connors. “You’re in the pack hospital, Miss Argos,” she explains as she leans over me. “I just need to remove the bandages to check how your eye is healing,” she explains. I nod and slowly sit up, and she removes the bandages wrapped around my head, covering my right eye. As the last bit comes off, she removes the gauze, and the light above me burns my eye. “Argh!” I yell, covering my eye with my hand. “Try not to touch it, Miss Argos. Is the light hurting it?” Doctor Connors asks. “Yeah, it stings like a bitch,” I say, refusing to move my hand. “This is good. It means your vision may not have been affected. Remove your hand, slowly open your eye, and tell me if you can see anything,” the doctor ins

Chapter 18-The Call That Changes Everything

Andreas P.O.V I pace the small area of the cave, raking my hand through my hair every two minutes. ‘We’d know if she was dead, wouldn’t we?’ I ask Ares, the tremor in my voice giving away how worried I am. ‘We haven’t marked her. So we won’t know anything,’ Ares says, just as worried. ‘FUCK! I need to know if she’s okay.’ I squat down, rubbing my hands roughly over my face. Then I stand up, walk over to the cave’s opening, and look over the Moonstone territory. The moon is shining brightly, and it’s a clear night. ‘Maybe we should see if we can get to the hospital and find her.’ ‘They’ve had extra patrols out looking for us. It isn’t safe,’ Ares warns. ‘I don’t care! I need to know that she’s okay!’ ‘I’m just as worried as you are, Andreas. But we’re no good to her if we’re dead,’ he tries to calm me. As I look over to the pack house, I sigh and lean against the cave’s entrance. Except for someone boarding up the window I broke, there has been no movement in Athena’s bedroom si

Chapter 19-Best Friends

Athena P.O.V My hands tremble as I place my phone on the side table after speaking with Andreas. His voice was deep and silky smooth, like melted chocolate, and the thought of seeing him tomorrow is giving me butterflies. ‘I thought we didn’t have time for a mate,’ Enyo says smugly. ‘I can’t help it. Even his voice draws me to him,’ I say, a blush creeping up my cheeks. ‘Dumb-dumb, that’s the mate bond. And things are only going to get worse,’ she says as she sighs contentedly. ‘At least having a mate might calm you down a bit,’ I say cheekily. ‘Don’t count on it.’ A knock on the door brings me back to reality. “Come in,” I call out. The door opens, and I see Ryna’s smiling face as he comes in. Then Gino, Rynas’ mate, comes in behind him. “Well, well. If it isn’t my two favorite men.” I smile from ear to ear, their presence making me feel instantly better. “For now,” Ry grins as he walks over to the bed. “I hear there’s a mate in the picture,” he chuckles as he envelops me in

Chapter 20-A Secret Escape

After getting our clothes from near the gym, we return to the pack hospital and find Doctor Connors waiting for me in my room. “You appear to be feeling better, Miss Argos,” Doctor Connors says with a smile. “I’m feeling heaps better, thanks. So, when can I get out of here?” I ask. “Let me look at your eye,” she says, motioning for me to sit on the bed. She takes the penlight from her pocket and shines it into my eye as I sit down. “Could you please follow the light?” I follow the light, thankful that it isn’t as painful as it was yesterday. “The scar is nice and pink, and it will fade over time,” she states. “Your pupil’s reaction is a little sluggish, but that should correct itself as well. Show me your arm, stomach, and leg, please.” I show her the pink scars that have formed over the cuts on my body. “No dizziness or vision problems?” She inquires after inspecting the other scars. “Nothing,” I say. “Her wolf didn’t have any problems with depth perception or anything like
