I let out a growl as I finally woke up. Two days ago, I received a call from Milek. He explained that Kynessie had mated and King Tiernan had marked her. That fucking bastard marked what was suspossed to be mine. He also told me that a ceremony had been had to induct her into the pack, doubling as her Luna ceremony. I was pissed when he told me that. What he told me next sent me over the edge. He had figured out who and where her heart was being kept. I told him to get it, but he refused. I told him I would increase the amount to get her heart, but he refused. I damn near fainted when he told me where and who probably had her heart. I understood why he didn’t want to continue the job, but I needed that heart. That is my only way to make her leave fucking King Tiernan and cooperate with me. Ignoring the fact that she should have been mine in the first place. Milek told me I could get it myself if I wanted her heart that bad. Yeah, that won’t happen. I felt my human die a

I could hear voices as I woke up. As my vision cleared, I realized I was again in the Luna room in the pack hospital. That's when everything came flooding back in. ___FLASH BACK START___ I was standing at the counter filling my coffee cup when I heard a heartbeat. I looked around, but there was no one in there besides me. I stood there sipping my coffee as two kitchen staff walked in. I bid them good morning, and as I walked over to sit down, I heard the heartbeat again. It sounded small and far away. I looked at the kitchen staff, but they were making breakfast. I was about to ask if they heard anything, but Thyox decided to inform me of something. (They can’t hear it.-Thyox) (Why not. I know wolf hearing isn’t as good as a vampire, but the heartbeat is coming from this room.-Me) (You’re right, but the heartbeat is coming from us.-Thyox) (You mean.-Me) (Yes, that is the heartbeat of our pup.-Thyox) My hand slid over my stomach as the faint little heartbeat became lo

I was more than ready for this weather to be over. This is day two of shitty rainy weather, and I am done being stuck in the house. While I admit, I probably shouldn’t have sparred with the others that day, getting out and stretching my muscles also felt good. I don’t remember my cousin telling me she was this exhausted when she was pregnant and carrying triplets. I decide to brave the rain coming down in sheets of water. I need to talk to Sam. I feel like there might be something wrong with me or this pregnancy. I grab one of Tiernan’s pullover hoodies. I pull the hood over my head as I step out the door and onto the porch of the packhouse. “And where do you think you are going young lady?” Tillman asks. I snort at him. That he called me young lady makes me want to double over in laughter, but with my stomach's instability today, I am afraid I would vomit if I started laughing. He raises an eyebrow at me, demanding an answer. “I am braving this shitty weather to go talk

Vihsan isn’t able to make it here for three more days. He is still looking into how Ghaazi was able to kidnap his cousin. They might have been estranged, and Vihsan may not have talked to or seen him in years, but family is still family, and Vihsan is pissed that someone in his family was kidnapped. I remember meeting that cousin when I was younger. He seemed friendly, but Vihsan told me that he was having issues. That was the first and only time I met him. I saw him a few times while traveling, but we never talked. I place my phone down on the desk in front of me. I have no idea what I am doing. I feel like an idiot standing in the middle of my new office. I thought Tiernan was joking when he showed me different rooms I could pick as my office. I considered using Seara’s old office, but the space didn’t feel right. As soon as I walked into this room, I knew it was the one. It has a large window that overlooks the backyard. I had the whole room redone (including the ensu

I was dead on my feet. The three of us had been on the run for the last week. Once we landed in the States, I decided that we should go through different states and not straight to the royal pack. I knew they would expect this if they found out we were here. Looking back on my decision, I realize we didn’t need to go that far north. The three of us were fine until we crossed that pack's land. The alpha and warriors chased us into Canada, causing us to trespass on another pack’s land, chasing us back across the states. None of us realized that we had crossed into Washington State. We were doing fine until we heard that growl.I damn near shit my pants when a white tiger the size of a fucking cargo ship crept out of the trees with his four giant friends. Once the terror died, we all knew exactly who this was, and that is when shit went to hell in a handbasket. We ran again, but I knew when I heard the howls that they wouldn’t be as easy to get away from as the other two packs.
