—Jeremy— Iannis walks into the room and I smile. "Ah Iannis my friend, you are right on time." 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
—Lena— As earlier discussed, we each piled ourselves into two cars, Killian and Lachlan were currently loading Mariana's coffin into the boot of the SUV. My mind was all over the place, I don't think it has settled since everything that has happened, from my sister been brutally murdered to finding out my daughter was still alive after believing that she was dead all these years and the person behind all this, is the one guy in my life that I actually loved and was close to getting married to. Killian might say all this isn't my fault that I should stop blaming myself but it is, even if Jeremy would've found another way to get back at Lachlan, he chose me because I was the gullible one, I believed all his lies and I brought this monster into our lives and now we are on the run preparing to go to war. It would've been different if it were only me, but it's not I've dragged everyone I love into this, Including my sweet innocent Will, he shouldn't be here right now, he shoul
—Elliot Bennett— Next week will mark a year since I've been at Alpha Kelly's pack and although I had reservations at the beginning, I'm happy that I was proven wrong. Everyone has been so welcoming, even Alpha Kelly and also his Beta. They never made me feel like I was an outsider and the best thing that I've gained from my stay here is the friendship between me, Jeho and Alan, what we have is a bond that will never be broken. So I have to admit that our parents were right this year together really worked. But as much as I love it here, I can't wait to get back to my own pack, back to my father, I haven't seen him in almost a year and yes we talk on the phone and write letters, but it isn't the same and I also have a feeling that he's hiding something from me. Another reason why I want to leave is Heather, this past year, we've gotten pretty close even though I tried to fight it, but it was as if my body was seeking hers out and I don't know why, I can't explain it bu
—Lena— “Shift,” Killian commands. My bones instantly obey, cracking again, even the broken ones, snapping back into place. For a few seconds, the pain dims everything. Am I going to pass out? Oh, please, let me just fade away. Too soon, my shifter healing kicks in, and I’m snatched back from darkness. I can’t escape. My wolf mewls for him. Help. His lip curls in disgust, but his eyes flicker blue to gold. “Stand up,” he snarls. I can’t. I don’t have the strength, and everyone will see everything. “Stand up, or I’ll drag you up.” Killian growls a warning. It’s a question. You dare defy me? Summoning every scrap of energy I have left, I roll to my stomach and push up on my good knee. I can’t just stand; my bad leg won’t let me. I stagger to my feet, exposing my butt, my belly, the wicked scars on my thighs and calves. The shame scalds as hot as fire. "I, Alpha Kelly, Rejec
—Lena— "What are you doing here?" I asked him, still smiling. In case you are wondering who Jeremy is, he's the one who took Kate and I told the hospital when I was losing my baby. We later found out that he was the alpha of the Crescent wolf pack and also the CEO of Lex Crescent Corp, a multi national company. After he took me and Kate to the hospital that day, he continued to help us. He helped us find a house and also enroll in law school. He's been a really great friend, and as of five months ago my boyfriend. "I knew what today was and I didn't want you to be alone." He says, smiling down at me. Oh goddess, what did I do to deserve such a sweet man. "You're the best." I tell him. He smirks, "I know, now come on get in, I freed up my day so we can do anything you want today." I get in the car. "Really anything I want." He takes my hand and kisses it. "Yes, my love anything you want." I laugh. "You are so
—Killian— "Why shouldn't we say her name, when it's clear to anyone with half a brain that you're still in love with her. Have you already forgotten how she betrayed you? How she slept with another man? And got pregnant with his child? And I'm pretty sure she has moved on….." Before she can utter another word I rush towards her and grab her by the neck. She groans in pain but she doesn't back down. "I've been the one here with you all these years, I've stood by your side through everything, but still you don't let me in, why Killian why, how am I so different from my sister." She cries out. "How are you different from your sister? The difference is that I loved your sister. I have no such feelings towards you. And the next time you talk to me with such disrespect I will not hesitate to rip out your tongue." I snarl at her and throw her on the ground. She cried as she watched me walk away. I walk out of the elevator with a grim look on m
—Lena— I was waiting outside the ice cream parlor for Jeremy and I had this feeling that someone was watching me, but when I looked around I didn't see anybody. Jeremy comes out of the store and he must see the worried look on my face. "Lena, are you okay? Did something happen?" Not wanting to worry him plus I'm not sure if somebody was actually watching me. "No, nothing happened, I'm fine just feeling tired." "Oh, ok then let's get you home." He says still looking worried. I feel bad for lying to him because I know he cleared his whole day just to be with me today. "No, I don't want to go home yet, you cleared your whole day for me, i want to stay with you." He smiles, looks down at me and caresses my cheek. "Ok then how about we go to my place and I make us dinner and you can just put your feet up and relax. How does that sound?" I put my arms around his neck and kiss him. "That sounds great." So we walk down the s
—Lena— Jeremy dropped me off at home the next day, but he couldn't stay because he had an important meeting to attend. As I walk into my home, I keep staring at my ring. I can't believe I'm engaged, I'm so happy I never thought I would get to a place where I could be happy again. I walk into the living room and call out Kate's name but she doesn't answer. She must be at the firm already. I get ready for work and drive to the firm. As I'm about to head into my office, Eric yanks my hand toward him so fast my body jerks forward, crashing into his. “Oh-em-gee,” Eric screeches like a hyena on crack. “Lena, this is a Harry Winston princess-cut diamond. I need a total replay. What were you wearing? What was he wearing? The speech… oh, did he get down on one knee?” Catching his breath he sits on the chair, crossing his legs in anticipation. I replay the entire night to him and even re-enact the proposal part. Kate walks
