Reaching out, he runs his finger along my collarbone, my body tensing at his touch. “Killian, what are you doing?” "It’s obvious you’re forgetting who you belong to. Who you’ve always belonged to.” His eyes are blazing, the tone of his voice dominant yet calm. That kind of calm terrifies me because I know it only means one thing—I have no chance of escaping. He pushes my hair behind my shoulder, and leaning forward, he grazes his lips against my neck, inhaling my skin. The walls start to cave, the touch of his lips on my skin breaking them down piece by piece. “Its high time I reminded you", he murmurs. His kisses become ravenous. ************* After being rejected by her mate the alpha of her pack, losing her baby and almost getting killed all on the same day, Lena vows never to return to the Quarry pack and to make herself stronger.

He doesn't return my smile, maybe it's because we are not really friends and also because I'm blackmailing him to help me. "You need to smile more, your age is starting to show." I tell him as I gather Elijah's drugs. He looks at me like he wants to kill me and he can actually, that's how powerful he is, with a snap of his finger he could kill me where I stand, but if he does that, he's sentencing his family to death, I've already put plans in place for that. "You wanted to see me?" He asks with a tired look on his face. I hand Elijah his drugs and make sure he swallows everything before I turn my attention back to Iannis. "Yes, please have a seat." I tell him gesturing to the chair closest to Elijah's bed. Elijah has this unique talent of reading people, he's able to tell when they are lying or telling the truth, I could easily do it by listening to th
—Jeremy— "Well dear sister, I guess I'm just going to have to kill Lachlan Burrows." I tell her and she looks at me in shock, while Elijah just shakes his head. "What do you mean you're going to have to kill him? You're not even sure he knows that Lyanna is alive, maybe he just brought her up." Elena tells me, she's always been the voice of reason. "No, I can't believe that after all these years he would just bring up her name especially since Lena is still very sensitive on that subject." I tell her. "It could also be because the anniversary is tomorrow, the day we buried my father and the day Lena gave birth, the anniversary is tomorrow. So it's possible that Lachlan was just reminiscing about the past." Elijah tells me and then a sad look sits on his face. "Is it really tommorow? So it's been eight years already since we lost him." Elena says and Immediately a somber look falls on all of us. "Yeah and from what Jeremy just said, he never wanted us to do
—Killian— After breakfast, everyone sits at the table not wanting to move, knowing that once we get up from here, we are leaving our bubble that we have been in for the past few days and we're going to war. "I don't want to leave this house, I don't want to get up." Lena whispers but we can all hear her and we all murmur our agreement that we all feel the same way. "Once we leave, it's never going to be the same again, I just know it." Kate says and for the first time since I've known her, I swear I see tears welling up in her eyes. "We can't think like that, if we go into this fight having these kind of thoughts, then we've already lost." I tell them. "Killian's right we can't think of the worst case scenarios, we need to go into this fight with the mindset that we'll win and we'll all come out alive." Lachlan concurs. As the alpha I get up first knowing that if I don't do it nobody else will. "Ok, we know the plan, we're packed, so how about everyone get r
—Killian— I wake up and I immediately stretch my hands towards Lena, but all I'm met with is just cold empty blankets, I immediately get up in shock wondering where she is. But immediately I get up there's a pair of confused eyes staring at me. "Uncle Killian, why were sleeping on the floor?" Will asks me still rubbing sleep away from his eyes. "Well Will, your aunt Lee Lee and I decided to sleep here last night, it was like a mini camp." I tell him and I immediately regret using those words. "You guys campers without me?" He asks me and Immediately his mouth starts to wobble like he's about to start crying. Oh fuck, I have to fix this somehow, if he starts crying Kate is going to murder me. "No buddy, it wasn't like that, we actually came to get you but you were already asleep with your mum and dad, so we decided not to wake you up." I tell him hoping that he believes me. "Are you sure Uncle Killian? You're not just saying that are you?" He asks me, da
—Lena— I wake up and feel a little bit disoriented, it takes me a few minutes to get my bearings and when I finally do, everything starts crashing down on me again, the events of the last few days. Finding out about Lyanna, Jeremy's betrayal and Mari, Mari is dead. I look to my side and Killian is completely passed out, he looks so peaceful, my husband, he's being my rock through all this. I thought he would be like the old Killian and tell me he told me so and he warned me about Jeremy, but he never said anything. Instead he's being there with me through it all, constantly telling me that none of this was my fault even though it is. He's barely slept this past week and I don't want to wake him up, he needs his rest for what we have coming up. I try to go back to sleep, but my mind is so wired that I can't and plus the ambien has worn off. I try my best to get up from our makeshift bed carefully so as not to wake Killian up, I finally get up and he only stirs a little bu
—Killian— "That should do it, the spell will only break only once she has been laid to rest, until then her body will be preserved as it is." Eric tells us. "Thank you Eric." Lena tells him but she doesn't even look up she just keeps staring at Mari's body and there are tears welled up in her eyes. "Mi Lena, it's time. We need to take her body down to the car." I tell her, this is the part that I've been dreading. "Where are you going to put her? You can't just dump her in the trunk." She tells me and I can see that she's starting to get upset and if I don't handle this situation fast she's going to start crying again. "It's just until we get to the pack, I've already called ahead and there's a coffin waiting for her once we arrive." I tell her hoping that it will calm her down but it doesn't seem to be working. "No, it's not right Killian, she doesn't deserve to be kept in the trunk. It's just not right Killian." She tells me and she starts crying ag
—Elliott Bennett— Both Heather and Jeho walk back to where Alan and I are waiting. She has a basket by her side filled with wildflowers and Jeho is trying to take one out. "Stop it Jeho, the flowers are for Martha." She tells him trying to scold him but there's a smile on her face so it doesn't really work. Jeho is finally able to get a stem free and proceeds to put it behind her ear. "There, a flower as beautiful as you." He tells her and she blushes. Upon seeing this music wolf stands at attention and growls and I also growl but I immediately cover it up with a cough. "Hey, are you ok?" Alan asks me looking worried. "Yea, I'm fine." I tell him because I don't even understand what is going on right now, why is my wolf acting like this? "Hello brother, I see you decided to join Jeho in skipping classes today." She tells Alan trying to scold him but there's still a smile on her face, it's like she's incapable of smiling and not that I'm complaining, he
—Elliot Bennett— "I'm Elliott Bennett, nice to meet you too." I tell him, not knowing that taking his hands that day would be the biggest mistake of my life. After exchanging greetings, I'm introduced to Jeho's father, Alpha Jay Kelly and his beta Nolan Reyes. I was also introduced to Alan, Beta Nolan's son and also Jeho's best friend and future Beta. "Ok gentlemen, why don't we proceed to the meeting room while Jehovah and Alan give Elliott a tour of the pack." Alpha Kelly says and I immediately don't want to agree with that, I want to stay with my father, he opted to come alone and left his Beta to look after our pack so if I leave him now he'll be the only one at the meeting. I'm just about to voice my disagreement when my father gives me a look that shuts me up. "That's an amazing idea, Alpha Kelly. Elliott, why don't you go ahead and get a tour of what will be your home for the next year, when you're done I'll still be here son so that you can see me off."
—Lena— The smell, it's the first thing that hits me when we walk into the room, Marie is on the bed with her eyes closed, one might think she was just sleeping but the fact that she's been nearly mutilated will clear that assumption quickly. How could a human being do this to another person? How could Jeremy be capable of doing something like this and I didn't see it all these years. I walk up to the bed and just stare down at her, my Mariana, my big sister, my protector. Before the whole message with Killian, we were so close, we were thick as thieves. She was always there for me and she never let anyone or anything hurt me. But then we found out that I was Killian's mate and everything went to hell, my sister distanced herself from me and did everything possible to get me away from Killian and she actually succeeded, I was separated from him for eight years after he rejected me. But thinking about all the things she has done over th
