Chapter Eleven

Roxie sat back in the hospital bed. She was so tired. Her throat hurt, she was unable to speak. There was so much she wanted to say to Avery. However, she was unable to do so. When she attempted to speak, it felt as though her throat was on fire. She was thankful to Avery for saving her, but now all she wanted was to tell him, how thankful she was. She knew that her father was coming to the hospital, but she did not want to see him. She partially blamed him for allowing her mother to do the things that she did. As it stood, the only person in that room that she trusted, was Avery.Collin had got the call from the hospital while he was at work. He couldn’t believe that something so horrific had happened to his daughter. When he left for work that morning, he was under the impression that his daughter, and his estranged wife were out together. He was shocked to learn that not only was that not the case, but now his child was in the hospital with serious injuries. as he arrived at the ho

Chapter Twelve

Avaline left the hospital that afternoon. Avery sat by Roxie's side. She slowly ate the cake pop and the cheesy sandwhich that Avilene got for her. She slowly slipped the warm drink she was given. She felt like she was starving after the entire ordeal with Grayson. She picked up the remote and turned the small TV on in the room. Avery looked like he hadn't slept in days. "Tomororw, when they discharge you. We'll go withdraw you from school and pack your stuff. I don't trust anyone here long enough to ever leave you unattended again. Avilene is bringing you clothes in the morning so you can shower and get the blood off of you." Avery said. Roxie of course, didn't say anything. She nodded and looked at him with those large pools of blue eyes of hers. Taylor Reid sat in the waiting room of the hospital until the blinking light of the operation room switched to off. She couldn't imagine how things had gotten to this point. Celia had promised that things would be different once Grayson ma

Chapter Thirteen

Alpha James had no choice, but to return to the Packhouse, and finalize his decision. By the time he returned, Taylor and her parents were already in his office waiting for him. “What do you plan on doing about our son’s murder?” Taylor’s parents asked. Alpha let out an exasperated sigh, and looked at the trio solemnly.“I have conducted an investigation into your son’s death. In light of the fact that your son spent money in an attempt to purchase another person, and tried to force himself on that person without her consent, he is just as responsible for his death as she was. It is my decision to have this incident ruled as a self-defense case. Your son broke our laws, and has paid for it with his life. I have decided that Roxanna‘s punishment for ending the life of my beta, is exile. She has been exiled from our pack effective immediately.” Taylor and her parents did not seem to accept that decision. “That’s it? That’s all you’re going to do to the person that killed your best frien

Chapter Fourteen

"Avery Jackson, you have some explaining to do!" His mother bellowed. Avery had little patience for his mother's meltdown. "Celia Harlowe is her mother. Like we were left by dad, she was left behind by her mother. Matter of fact, I met the woman." The look on his mother's face was priceless. She had lost all the color to her face. "And?" She asked. Avery sighed. "She seemed nice, at first. The very next day Roxie was missing from school. So, we went to their house. Turns out, Celia drugged her own child and tried to sell her off to someone else, just because she didn't want Roxie to be mated to me." Avery countered. "Still, she'll be trouble." His mother attempted to reason with him. Avery shook his head. "I don't care. She's my mate. She was chosen by the Goddess specifically for me. You attempted to reason with me, not to reject my mate remember? I didn't reject her. It's a good thing I didn't, because if I had to look the other way. That girl would be dead. In the last twenty-four

Chapter Fifteen

Roxie couldn’t believe that she was kissing Avery. She laced her fingers through his hair. As she instinctively parted her lips to allow him to deepen the kiss. He slipped his tongue into her small mouth to fully taste her. She could feel him pulling her tighter to him. She could feel her body heating up, fully feeling the electric surge from the bond that she had tried to ignore. There was a knock on the door, that caused them to separate. Roxie slid off his lap and back onto the bed. “What is it?” Avery asked. The door opened and Sienna made her way inside. “I was coming to apologize for my behavior earlier today. “ Avery looked skeptical but shrugged and attempted to wave her away. “is that all?” Avery asked, he was a little irritated by the interruption. Sienna glanced towards Roxie and smirked. “Was I interrupting something?” Sienna said innocently. Avery growled in response. “Were you trying to interrupt something?” Avery asked in disbelief. Sienna chuckled. “Of course not! I o

Chapter Sixteen

After dinner, Avery brought Roxie back to his office. Doctor Langston made her way up for a visit. She used her tools and examined Roxie. She had Roxie open her mouth wide and got a look at the inside of her throat. She removed the bandages and got a look at Roxie's throat and let out a soft curse under her breath. "It's starting to heal on it's own, but there's a risk of infection. You said that she was poisoned with wolfsbane? When our wolves are unable to step in and help mend wounds it becomes harder to heal from serious injuries. Being near you, is likely beneficial to the mate bond. The more contact she has with you can speed the healing process up, but I agree with the previous doctor's assessment. This is just something that's gonna take time to heal." Roxie made a little disappointed frown but she accepted it. Avery sighed and held out his hand and shook the doctor's hand. "I'll make regular drop ins to check on her progress, but you'll just have to be patient. The good news

Chapter Seventeen

Allison collected Avilene and Roxie and piled them into her car. They left the packhouse. Roxie watched the packhouse get further away. She turned her attention back to the car and Avilene shot her a smile from the front seat to reassure her. They left the housing district of the Pack's town and turned off heading towards the commercial lots. This was the first time that Roxie was actually able to get a good look at the town itself. She had still been exhausted from her ordeal the first time they came through. There were many more stores and shopping districts in this Pack as compared to Redwood. She liked looking through the window at all the different stores. She wondered if the clothing choices were a lot different too. Avery had been excited about possibly taking her to purchase new clothing. She didn't have a lot of outfits to choose from, and a lot of her clothing was so old that it had rips and tears or worn holes in the fabric. Roxie noted the building of the store front that

Chapter Eighteen

Roxie left the store weighed down with several large shopping bags on each arm. It had been so long that she was actually able to go to the store and pick out new clothes for herself. Most of her clothes had been gifts from friends of her father's or peers from school. New clothes that no one had worn yet wasn't normally a luxury that she had. She was quite excited about new outfits. Avilene helped her load the bags in the back of the car. By the time they arrived back at the Pack House, it was lunch time. Avilene handed off the bags that Roxie had been carrying inside off to one of the Omegas that served as housekeepers to send to the room that she now shared with Avery. Avery wasn't anywhere to be seen when she arrived. She decided that she'd go ahead and eat lunch with Avilene, in Avery's absense. Avilene led her back into the dining room. Roxie noticed several pairs of eyes on her. While that made her slightly uncomfortable, she ignored it. She sat down near Avilene as she loaded

Chapter Nineteen

Celia growled in frustration as she gripped the phone in her hand. She never once believed that this could be the outcome when she sold off her daughter to Grayson Reid. That little runt offspring of hers killed the Beta of the Redwood Pack? She could hardly believe it. She didn't dare return there, no doubt she shared the blame in some of the outcome. Shit! Nothing was going according to plan. She spent three days cozing up to that little weakling of a daughter of hers, and this was the result? Bullshit! Celia sighed and pulled her dark hair away from her face. Nothing was going according to plan! The plan was simple. She bought off those two mediocre bullies to be nice to her kid from now on. Sell Roxanna to Grayson and once he had fucked all the resolve out of that defiant little whelp, she would be the perfect clay to mold into the perfect chess piece for her long game. She had been naive enough to think that if she got rid of Allistair Jackson, that the kingdom would naturally fal

Chapter Twenty

Roxie woke up the following morning. She found Avery's side of the bed completely empty. She moved to sit up in the bed and rubbed her eyes. Today was the first morning of her new training schedule. It was time to start her journey of being stronger. The thought suddenly hit her that she still hadn't heard Vera since the incident with her mother and Grayson happend. What if her wolf was truly missing? What if Vera abandoned her? Those thoughts swirled in her head and she was truly starting to panic, when she heard a sleepy voice in her head. Such noisy thoughts, child. I've been listening this entire time. Can't I take a nap, without you thinking it's a crisis? Vera! I thought you were gone for real. I can't use my voice anymore.. speaking to you is all I have. I was worred that you wouldn't come back.. that drug.. Such a minor amount, couldn't kill me. We're fine. Don't you have training to do? I'm ready to stretch my legs. Your head is such a chaotic and stuffy place. Yes, we're
