JaxonI hear my sister's screams from below and charge out of my room. Hurrying down the stairs, I see Cece backing out of the office. Her hands in front of her as she begs for something to stop. A very large blue wolf steps out, snarling at her. It’s odd coloured eyes glued to Cece.“Blue?” The word comes out as no more than a whisper. How could this be her? It wasn’t even a full moon yet.The wolf prowls towards Cece, hungry for the kill.“Cece, run!” I had no idea what Blue was capable of. I had never seen a wolf as big as her. Nor had I seen a blue wolf.“I can't,” Cece cries back. She was just as focussed on the wolf, afraid to look away.Blue hadn’t even acknowledged me. She was locked on her target and nothing else seemed to matter. They move across the foyer, their feet moving in time with one another. Keeping the same steady rhythm. Was Blue playing a game with her?Somehow, I already knew that Cece wasn’t going to make it out of this alive.Spotting my father who was hoveri

Xander It had taken a lot to convince my brother that wolfsbane would be our only option for now. We could not have Blue’s wolf killing the entire pack. She beams at us as we tell her she can have some. But she didn’t seem so keen on the idea of learning to control her wolf. If that was even possible. Yet somehow, Jaxon believed it could be done. Our father had said it himself, she is uncontrollable. She is the ultimate weapon and I didn’t think he was wrong. Jaxon tells her to remain in her room until we return. “We will lock the door so no one can get in.” “You’re locking me in?” She frowns at him “Just until we are back. We won’t be gone long.” He reassures her. But he knew as well as I did, finding wolfsbane wasn’t exactly easy. Wolves tend to stay away from it and wolfsbane never really bothered us Lycans. He pulls the door shut as we leave, slipping the key into the lock and sighs. “It’s only for a little while.” I remind him. “But we need to do this for her.” “I know

JaxonHer body falls against mine. Weak from the marking. Her fingers claw at me as she eagerly tries to stay upright.“What did you do to her?” Xander demands“You agreed to this.” I snap back as Blue’s head rolls backward. Her eyes glazed over.“That didn’t happen when I marked her.”“Then how the fuck should I know!” I try shaking Blue, trying to get her to focus on me. Her odd coloured eyes remain glazed. She was barely able to hold her own weight. If I didn't keep my arms wrapped around her, she would have crashed to the ground already.“Could it be her wolf?” Xander’s hands find her face, trying to force her to look at him.“I don’t know, maybe it's because we both marked her.”“We shouldn’t have done it.”“We agreed!” I snap at him. “There was no way I was going to let her be marked to just you. And I’m pretty certain you would have wanted the same thing if it were the other way around.”He rolls his eyes at me, running a hand through his messy hair. “Maybe it’s best if we take

Jaxon I could still taste the deer's blood on her lips. She pauses, briefly pulling her lips from mine and comes back at me with force. A hunger that I had never seen in her. A desire for something more. Her arms lock around my neck, holding me firm as she kisses me harder. Her tongue dips in and out. Her hands move up to my hair, curling her fingers through it as her hunger grows. She suddenly pushes me back. Staring at me with her eyes wide. Almost frozen in shock by her own actions. “No, no, no, no, no.” She mutters, rushing from the bathroom. “Blue, you…” “It should not have happened. I just… I just can’t do it. I can’t be mated to both of you. It’s wrong.” She throws her hands up as she paces the room. “Things might not go right. You might want me, he wants me too. I can’t.” She turns to face me. “I’m not ready.” “You wanted it as much as I did.” She points to her neck. “Is it because of this? Is this why I’m acting like a deluded teenager?” “Maybe, but at the moment it d

Blue“Shit, Oh my Goodness. Xander I’m really sorry. I clamber off the bed as he backs away from me, coughing and spluttering.“It’s fine,” He mutters with his croaky voice.“I didn’t mean to, why were you standing over me like that?” I had intense guilt while Anika was laughing her head off.Stupid idiot!“You’ve been asleep for a while, I wanted to make sure you were okay.”Bullshit!“I was tired. I did tell Jaxon that.”I watch him rub his throat. The redness from my hit, already fading as his voice returned to normal.“He didn’t say that.”He’s lying. He can probably smell Jaxon’s scent on us!“Why didn’t you knock?” I try really hard to listen to his heartbeat. To see if it was like before, if his beat would skip when he lied."I did!" It was another lie."What couldn't wait?" I mutter, yawning and rubbing my eyes.“Father has shared some information with Jaxon and myself.”“About me?”Great! I can’t wait to hear all about this!“Yes.”“Well?” “The Alpha and Luna of Midnight pa
