*FREYA*A few hours later Rogue was excited and ready to tell me about her first day of school but my head was just stuck in the clouds and I couldn't stop thinking about what my father told me.I still felt betrayed despite all the anger that I was feeling.Rogue looked upset in the backseat and I couldn't help but feel sad because none of this was her fault.I sighed deeply."Honey I'm really sorry mommy is just having a really bad day I hope you understand that."She nodded quietly.I know that I wasn't probably being the best mom right now but deep down I just needed a minute to myself.Once we arrived at the house Rogue immediately got out of the car and went upstairs without even saying a single word to me.I could tell that she was mad."Rogue please wait."But she was already gone.Alpha Dax noticed the tension between us and decided to approach me.He placed a comforting hand on my shoulder."Hey I saw Rogue running upstairs she looked pretty upset. Is everything okay? He ask
*LAIN*I let go of Velvet and she fell to the floor trying to catch her breath. If it was up to me she would have been dead by now.She looked up meeting my gaze."Are you going to kill me?" She taunted quietly, making me feel furious.I scoffed in annoyance, staring at her in disbelief.I would have regretted it for the rest of my life if I had chosen to make Velvet my mate.I'm glad I met Freya Allan."No I won't lay a finger on you but this time the elders of the pack will know about your true colors and I'll let them decide your fate."Velvet didn't seem fazed by my threat."The council won't believe you and Alpha Lain. I'd make my decision carefully before the tables turn."I gave her a puzzled look.I decided to walk away before I did something that I'd regret for the rest of my life.I informed the guards and came out of the cell .My thoughts lingered on Freya Allan but deep down I knew that she deserved to know the truth about Velvet's attack.She hurt Rogue and I will never
*LAIN*I felt horrified as the elders of the pack called Drex to come to the front and what they said left me speechless.Drex looked at me puzzled."Drex as you are the beta of the moon raiders pack we hereby make you the acting Alpha of the pack until Lain's trial."I turned to look at my best friend and I couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy.Everyone in the room bowled their heads to Drex with utter respect and I did the same as the anger filled my veins.As people began to congratulate Drex I noticed a small smile on his face.The bastard actually looked happy to take my place thinking that he could replace me.Our eyes locked in a frenzy and he looked away amidst the tension.I walked away trying to think of a way to get myself out of this mess.I had so many questions and the only person who would be able to answer me is none other than Velvet.She planned this scheme and I have a feeling that this wasn't just to get her freedom.It's something bigger than this.I found Ve
*LAIN*Freya Allan finally gave up and sat on the sofa running her fingers through her hair tiredly."You okay? It looks like you're having a nervous breakdown."She looked up meeting my gaze and glared at me."Don't you realize that we are going to be stuck here all night? I don't understand why you're so calm right now."I sat beside her."Well I guess we don't have any food or water here but at least we have each other and that's what is important."She cocked a brow at me."Really?" She taunted quietly, making me smile .She groaned deeply.Let me try to be helpful so that she doesn't suspect that I have something to do with this situation."Uh how about you try calling Alpha Dax your boyfriend?" She arched a brow at me."There's no cell service and besides Alpha Dax already has a mate and he's like a big brother to me."I sighed with relief.I swallowed hard."Look I'm sorry."She scoffed in annoyance."For what?"I shrugged carelessly."For everything and for acting stupid can
*DREX*I know that Lain doesn't want my help but deep down he's still my best friend and I'm not abandoning him anytime soon.I decided to keep an eye on Velvet's family. Something about her release was fishy.It looks like the brainwashed elders of the pack were brainwashed or something.I remained in the shadows and one day I saw Velvet giggling like a banshee with one of the elders.What was up with them?I took out my phone and began taking a video of them as Velvet shamelessly leaned in and kissed the old man passionately on the lips.I gagged inwardly as she pulled and the old geyser had the audacity to spank her butt cheek as they went inside.I decided to take a closer look as I watched the windows searching for them. Luckily for me the door was left open and I slipped inside unnoticed.My ears perked up at the mere sound of groans and I followed the sound trying to be as silent as possible.I reached the hallway and slowly opened the door as my eyes widened in shock when I s
*LAIN*I woke up to the sound of laughter and groaned in annoyance.It was my little sister Nyra, probably joking about something with my dad.I grabbed my nearest pillow and covered my ears to block out the sound.“Lain you have to wake up, its Christmas morning.”My mom was knocking on the door and Sooner or later, I knew that if I didn't get my lazy ass out of bed, she was going to grab me by the ear and force me downstairs.I groaned deeply.“I'm coming, mom, I just need a minute.”I heard her footsteps slowly fading away and tossed the covers to the ground.Ever since I turned sixteen, I turned into the black sheep of the family and I would rather not do anything fun.It's like while growing up I was killing the kid inside me, but it wasn't exactly easy to act like a kid, especially when your father is the alpha of the pack, and you're next in line.I stripped out of my clothes and stepped into the shower as the cold water drenched me.I was one of those kids who weren't too happ
*LAIN**FIVE YEARS LATER*Ever since that fateful day, I was taken in by an organization called the dark tide. It was an organization that owned half of the assassin's around the world.It consisted of humans and supernatural beings, but the humans had no idea of our existence, and we liked it that way.It made everything much easier.I was trained to kill in cold blood without any remorse. Witnessing the deaths of my family broke me, and I had become a shell of the person I used to be.I lost my wolf, Axel five years old. Was that even possible? I shrugged carelessly as I looked at the glass of whiskey that had reached halfway.I have no idea, but ever since the day I lost everything I have never been able to summon him or transform.It made me feel like a human and much more vulnerable.Working for the dark tide is like walking on a right rope while wearing a mask, and I guess that's what made it thrilling for me.They owned our lives, and they had the power to end it whenever we
*FREYA*He looks at me with wide eyes and drops something to the ground. When I glance down, I actually notice that it's a silver dagger glowing in the club.What the actual fuck?"Mate!" he yells while staring at me, adding more discomfort.I chuckled awkwardly."I'm sorry, are you Australian or something?" I asked curiously while eyeing him up and down.Before he can reply, a gunshot echoes spiking up my adrenaline as the club is filled with screams and people start running for their lives.Someone pushes me and this tall dark stranger holds me in his arms, taking me by surprise."Shit," he muttered quietly while looking around the club.I'm too buzzed to even care what he's talking about, and the chaos is making me feel a bit sick to my stomach.I let out a scream when he grabs me effortlessly and tosses me over his shoulder like I weigh nothing."Put me down!"My vision is almost blurry as he exits the back door, ushering us to safety as the bullets become more frequent and people
