“It seems while I’ve been busy watching over the pack, you got busy maturing huh? You’re no longer that cute little cry baby” He suddenly says with a tease and I flush, embarrassed and ready to protest.But the warm smile he shows me, has me retreating and revealing a haughty smile, pride sprouting from the truth in his words. “I can become even better than this and surprise you in the future” I boast, receiving a bonk on the head.“Nah, I don’t think you need any more dose of maturity after this. We need you to remain our precious little girl forever, that’s much better and safe”.The hell? I fume, glaring at Harrison who wiggles his brows at me. “Safe- what the hell are you talking about?! You can’t keep me this way like this forever- I’m not some pampered pet!”But my protest only has my brothers laughing at me as I look down, boiling in anger and a red face from shame. Ugh, I’ll forever remain a little kid in their eyes…but then, I don’t feel bad at all.

“He’s my mom’s older brother and the alpha of the pack she belonged to before she got together with dad” I give him my reply and quickly add, “He treasures mom like a gem and always flies over whenever she gets into any trouble”.“Oh…” He expels and I shrug, wondering what they must be talking about again. In our time of peril, it’s good to know we’ve got many allies willing to come to our help. In our time of need, we weren’t abandoned.And it turns out uncle Adams had been in company of alpha Charles, alpha Nyx, alpha Delano and alpha Caden. Together, they had taken their warriors with them to lend help to our pack in fending off the enemies' invasion.“In total, we got six traitors in cohorts with Kieran. Leon reached out to Ezra the moment they attacked so Nyx gave me a call and we got the others involved. We were already here in Canada when the call came through and those crazy nomads wouldn’t let us leave easily but Odelia and some warriors from your pack showed up and helped

I fall sick at heart, agony rattling around my being as they zip past, ganging up on Olyver. The piercing cry of shriek and terror plunges into the air as I shut my eyes…the pain and grief eating away at me faster that a lethal poison.‘Odelia….’ I feel so helpless, seeing Hogan approach us…crouching next to his mate who’s struggling to hold on for him.I feel so guilty…If I hadn’t been so obstinately bent on coming here…if I had obediently stayed back like Weslee did…this tragedy wouldn’t have happened. I feel so ashamed to even look at Hogan, guilt suffocating me as I begin to back away…I’m so sorry..I’m so sorry.Something stops me from digressing any further and I turn to see Hex. At this point, I just wish I was the one who got hit and not her…how do I face them all after the disaster I’ve caused?’Heather…hey, look at me…it’s not your fault. Please don’t blame yourself…Heather’Everyone will say it’s not your fault, trying to make the guilt go away but…this will never change

‘Isn’t there a way to still rouse her up so she can at least communicate with her mate?’ Alpha Marcus asks and is replied by the alpha, “We will count on a minute. That’s the only opening we get to rouse her up and get the task done. The pressure on her soul is immense, we cannot afford to keep waking her from that necessary slumber”.He’s speaking in things I don’t understand again. I fall back, watching them charge towards Talon who sends Hector and Hex flying and colliding into Silver as they fall into a roll. He then sees them from the rear and he turns, ready to attack when the white wolf and Uncle Gabriel both combine a barrage of attacks into his side and kick him away from where mom lies.Talon remains resilient, refusing to be pushed over, baring his dentition ferociously and making a leap, descending with his head first. The white wolf leaps too, their heads colliding in a massive headbutt.'What the hell...' I blink, reluctant to believe they're both still agile after tha

“I’m done packing up!- Zach come help me out will you?” Ugh, why do I have so much to drag down? I frown and put my hands akimbo, staring at my luggage when my bedroom door comes open and a nineteen year-old Zachery steps in, chuckling into his fist when he sees my things.“Don’t let that laughter sip out. Help me get this down” I order and pick up my phone from my table as I join him to take them all down. Before I knew it, six years already sped by. A lot has happened, the family especially became much larger than it was back then. Harrison’s boys are as disastrous as he was and love to raise trouble all the time. Even the last of them who's only a year old, already knows how to manipulate the adults around him.Harlow has a son and a daughter, full of mischief but are quite cool. The girl loves to get into fights…must have inherited a little of me there.“Auntie you’re leaving already? When will you come visit us again?” Little Abby asks me, tugging against the leg of my jeans
