The next morning, James sat at the long wooden table in the Roberts’s home, absorbed in eating the wonderful breakfast Sandy had given him. So much so he didn’t even notice Tony come into the kitchen. Tony slapped him on the shoulder, causing James to jump, and Tony laughed. “That was awesome. The first time I got the jump on you, literally speaking too,” he teased, and James got a sour look on his face.“Funny, very funny. Did you want to say something before I kick your ass or should I just get started now?” James threatened good-naturedly.“You’re not going to kick my ass. I’m the future alpha and my ass is un-kickable. To answer your question yes, I wanted to say something. Dad is holding a meeting at the meeting hall, of all places, so it must be something important. We’ve got to get going if we&r

Several hours had passed before James could get free of the persistent flattery and blunt insistence from Hunter that he should become an enforcer. It was nearing eleven at night and James hadn’t seen Lily return, but it didn’t surprise him. He figured she climbed through the window to avoid Hunter and probably James, too. James walked up the dark staircase and knocked on her door, just wanting to check on her.He knocked again when she didn’t answer, and when silence was his only greeting, James opened the door, surprised it opened with ease. She always kept it locked. He looked around the empty room. The window was closed and her bed made.It wasn’t until he saw the note on the battered wooden desk that he knew something was wrong. He picked it up and read it even though Andrew’s name was on it. With a growl, he went to find the

When Greg told Lily that her father refused to follow the trail of Xavier, she was so pissed that she nearly shifted right there. She stomped over to his office and burst in without a second thought or knocking. Andrew looked up from the papers he was reading. “Hey Lily, how are you feeling?” He asked, and her temper flared even more. How dare he even ask such a question?“Why are you being so stupid?” She barked at him and his eyes flashed gold as his face hardened.“Watch that tone of yours, Lily,” he warned her.“No, I will not! Not while you ignore Xavier,” she demanded.Andrew’s face turned angry, and he growled at her. “Lily, it is not your place to question me. You now are a member of this pack and I’m your alpha, you’ll follow my orders no matter what!” Andrew told her with a harsh tone and she could feel him trying to do his alpha thing on her, but even now it didn’t have any effect on her. “I’m doing what I deem best for this pack and, most of all, for you,” he added. Lily s

Lily knew the man’s free will was gone, and he was persuaded to let them feed off of him. She knew it was wrong, and she wanted to pull away and tell Bianca so, but she bit down harder into his arm. The taste of the blood was intoxicating, so warm, and so delicious. She wanted more!“Now, now Lily, don’t take too much,” she heard Bianca tell her, but Lily ignored her. She wasn’t ready to stop. She had to have more! Bianca gave her a hard push, but Lily didn’t budge. She pushed the red head away from her as she continued to drink from the man.“What are you doing?” she heard Dorin bark, and he grabbed her hair and jerked her head back. She cried out in surprise and in anger, but something else replaced her anger. A pleasant sensation ran through her body and euphoria filled her, causing goosebumps to break out all

James jumped awake as his phone rang. He ignored Chris laughing at him as he answered the phone. “For being the good guys, you sure don’t act like it,” Greg complained, and James smiled.“Sorry Greg, but I knew you had no intention of helping me once I left. I had to have some backup plan,” James justified. Tony agreed to act as the extra persuasion for Greg to keep informing James of where Lily was.“Well, there is nothing to say. I told her that there was nothing new with Xavier, things here are a mess,” Greg replied, then paused for a moment. “I also let her know you are following her,” he added with a defiant tone that surprised James. He swore silently, knowing that would only make her travel faster.James smiled again, getting an idea. “Greg, you are
