Elias’ pov Both my parents were equally pissed and righteously so. My dad played bad cop and shouted at me. While my mother sat me down and talked to me in a calm voice, clearly good cop. But it worked, I knew they were disappointed. But there wasn’t much they could do to punish me at this point. I was almost 18 and tomorrow I would be King of the werewolves. I would basically be in charge of them, even though I would never say that out loud. I told my mother ‘honestly mama, I am so confused. I barely know her, but for a while I suspected she might be my mate. Her scent drives me crazy and we had our moments together. But most of the time she spent at the packhouse she was really angry with me, for no clear reason. I don’t believe she’s an evil person. You don’t have to worry. I am not delusional, I know it would be ridiculous to still have feelings for someone after they tried to kill you. But I couldn’t let her sit there and be hurt by papa and perhaps killed afte

Jade's pov Meeting Jacob and learning about the new Alpha had thrown me off a much more important topic. Sally had just shared that I could be part of a prophecy and that my grandmother was a liar. Normally I wouldn’t have believed Sally’s story, but it was too much to make up on the spot. Not to mention the fact that everyone else besides my grandmother had a different story of how my parents were. I always thought my mother stood by my father and agreed with his choices. But it seemed like the decision to support Lenore my father made on his own. I was snapped out of my thought by Sally ‘Finley, are you okay? I know I just revealed a lot to you’. I nodded ‘I just have to wrap my brain around everything. So you’re saying I might be part of a witches prophecy? And that my father was in the wrong to help Lenore?’. Sally was thinking for a while and then answered me ‘You have to make up your own mind about your father. To me an Alpha looks out for their pack, for ever

Jade’s povJacob came over for dinner and chatted the whole time, telling me about his job and the alpha. And how everything was better now that Alpha Ivar was in charge. ‘He’s really making some changes. Alpha Soren was fine and all, but he lacked ambition. Alpha Ivar wants to expand and grow. He has a long term plan for our pack’. Sally told Jacob how I was planning on going to school here for my last semester and needed a part time job. ‘I have some experience in a butcher shop’ I told them ‘or I can work the counter at a grocery store?’. Sally asked Jacob if he could show me around tomorrow and look for a job. She would handle registering me at school. I noticed it was silent for a while and Sally and Jacob looked at each other very seriously. They must be talking about me through their mindlink I though. I just turned 17 before moving to Crimson Moon pack. Living with my grandmother I was always fearful of turning

Elias’ povIt was almost time to graduate, I had been training with Zane a lot and spending time with my family and Zoey before I was leaving. It felt really good to see my parents so happy and carefree together. My father and I had a good talk about Jade, I explained I didn’t think she was a bad person and would harm others. It was all about getting revenge for her parents and since she couldn’t kill me the first time I doubted she would try again. Especially since it was now almost impossible to kill me. I didn’t tell my parents I would try and feel her emotions every evening, to see if she was doing well. Jade seemed to be okay, often feeling guilty and sad. Some of the time she was feeling numb, like she was just going through the motions. It felt kind of wrong checking up on her, like I was stalking her. Perhaps I should just check if she was alive every month? ‘You are negotiating with yourself to see how much of a stalker you can
