Nora’s POVConflicting emotions swarmed through my head. I wanted to cry and throw myself to the floor. But most especially, I wanted a shoulder to cry on. In that moment, I missed Michael. I sat still, like I had been glued to the ground, like a statue. Jake’s words cut me deep, like a knife. The painful part was not the wound, but the person on the other end of the knife. Suddenly, something hit me.“You must think I am stupid to believe you. I am not new to your gimmicks, Jake. Claire would never betray me. You just brought in her sister to toil with my emotions.” My eyes burned with a new fire as I glared at him. Jake turned to me and immediately burst into a hysterical laugh. I instantly regretted saying that. My heart broke a million times as I thought of how Claire could do this to me. I thought we were more than friends. I took her as my sister. My eyes watered. I blinked back my tears. No! Now was not the time to cry or be weak. Especially in front of Jake. No way was he goin

Claire’s POVI lay on Jake’s chest, resting from our exercise. That was what he called it. I have now memorized the tempo of his heartbeat. Damn! Last night was hot.“Morning!” He murmured huskily. His voice was the sexiest in the morning.It was still morning, I wondered. Usually, on the rarest days, mornings do tend to flee. It seems this one decided to last. It was thrilling."Morning!" I grinned. I wondered if I looked like an idiot."Jake,” I deadpanned. "Why did you have to scare me like that?" I sat and frowned. He grinned, and he tried to pull me back down, but I was adamant.“ oh baby” he sat up and kissed my neck. "See, I did that, so that Michael will not be after you,” he said.“ How?” I asked. Jake laid back on the bed as he stretched his arms open.“Michael is not a dummy. He would use everything to try to get at me. If someone saw you leaving the pack, you might be caught,” he said.“Ohh… Kay, but you kept someone from his circle to guard me,” I said.“He has been caugh

Nora’s POVWhen I jolted awake, I was disoriented. My clothes were wet. Being bound to a bed in an unfamiliar room didn’t help matters either.Panic set in as my eyes struggled to adjust to the bright light and the cold from the water. I could see Claire enter with a sinister smile into my view. Her eyes are cold and distant.“Well, well, look who’s finally awake,” she sneered, circling around me.“Claire, what is going on? Why are you here?” I pleaded, my voice shaky with fear.“Please stop the act; I’m sure Jake has told you everything,” she said, pointing at her fingernails.“Everything?” I muttered. I wondered how long they might have been seeing each other.“Oh, Nora, you always thought you were so perfect, so untouchable. But not anymore,” she mocked.“Claire, please, if you’re angry with me, we can talk about it. But this isn’t the way to resolve anything,” I implored.“Talk? Do you think talking will change anything? No, Nora. It’s time for you to experience what it’s like to

Nora’s POVI jolted up from sleep.My breathing was ragged, and I was soaking in an ocean of my own sweat. I had a terrible night mare, but as weird as it would sound, I didn’t remember what it was all about, no matter how I tried to.I tried to steady myself to know what was actually going on, but I kept seeing things in twos. I noticed some odd things. Firstly, the room was bigger.That wasn’t all. It was so exquisitely furnished. It looked like a room meant for a royal. I squeezed my eyes. I willing myself to concentrate. And just like magic, I was sane.I looked at the corner, and my heart raced. There was a figure at the door.“Aaargh!!!” I yelled."Sshh, you will wake them up,” the voice said.“Who are you?” I asked. The figure slowly walked toward me. With shaky hands, I touched her face as she came into my view.“Claire?” She shook her head. "Mila,” she smiled.“I know you might be wondering how you came here." I looked around, and the room had changed. I slowly nodded. “I aske

Michael’s POVI walked into my tent, and Hercules followed closely behind me. My bed was still unmade. It reminded me of how I had woken up.“What was that about, Agnar?”I sighed and ran my hands through my hair."Brother, you were on her tail, like she was already an enemy. Is there something you know that I don’t know?” He raised an eyebrow.I put my hands on my waist. "Come sit; I will tell you.”Hercules didn’t take his eyes off me as he dragged me away. "I'm listening, bro.”.“Do you remember that letter Nora had written before she left?" Hercules nodded."I noticed an anomaly there. Nora had asked that I don’t look for her and that I should take care of our son.”"Yes," Hercules said, as his face wore a pensive look."Then a few days later, Dylan went missing.” I said."Yes, it poses a great concern, but I think it has to do with who Nora went to," says Hercules.“Jake Farrell,” I said, gritting my teeth."Yes, that’s our only bet. I mean, I don’t want to think that another per
