Shawn’s POV Alpha Chance had messaged me to meet him at the packhouse and I prayed that he had news of Willow’s whereabouts. I have not been able to sleep since she has been missing and I couldn’t go through all of this again. It was bad enough to lose one mate to the rogues but to lose two was too much for me to handle. I felt like I had let Willow down not being there for her when she needed me the most, just like I had done with Jess. I had made a vow to myself that after we found Willow, I was going to mark her as mine too and I didn’t care what the pack had to say about it. Standing on the front steps of the packhouse I watched as the Alpha’s SUV approached the house and I waited in anticipation of what news he brought with him. As the SUV got closer I could see a woman in the front seat with dark hair and I got excited knowing it had to be Willow. Alpha Chance had brought our mate back to us just like he said he would. Racing down the steps to the SUV that came to a stop I

Willow’s POV It wasn’t quite morning when we were awoken by one of Damon’s patrol men. Damon was needed and he told me to stay in bed and he was going to be right back. I rolled over and stayed in bed like he asked but after a few minutes of him being gone, I began to hear noises from outside of my tent that didn’t seem normal for this time in the morning. Quickly, I got up and began to throw clothes on when the tent door threw open to see the she wolf that had helped take care of me. “We have been found, we need to move now, Luna.” Ashley said as she grabbed ahold of my hand and began to pull me out of the tent and towards the woods to the north. Looking over my shoulder, I could see the chaos of everyone trying to gather a few things and follow in our direction. One of the mothers with three children was struggling and I moved to help her by picking up the second to the youngest child in my arms to carry her. As we move deeper into the mountainside, I notice that it is just

Willow’s POV Last night Alpha Chance just held me in his arms for the rest of the night in silence. He knew that what I had done took a lot from me, rejecting Beta Shawn and he also knew that I was still weak from what the man in the red cloak had done to me. So, instead of pushing me for more information, he just held me letting me know that he was here for me now. When morning came, he left me to get ready while he went down to his office to take care of a few pack things. I knew this was hard on him giving me my space, but he must sense that was what I needed. As I took my shower my thoughts went between Alpha Chance and Damon, and I felt so torn on what I wanted now. I never thought that I would develop feelings like this for Damon. As I got dressed to head downstairs, I felt so numb inside and didn’t know if I was ready to face the pack yet today, but I knew I couldn’t hide in the bedroom for the rest of my life. Walking down the grand staircase I noticed that there was a t

Chance’s POV Willow’s heat has lasted way longer than any other she wolves I have known of and none of us can figure out why she is still in heat after two weeks. Beta Shawn had to move to another floor for the time being because it was causing him pain to hear her cries even though she had rejected him. He was trying to work things out with Jess but at night when he heard Willow crying out it would send him into a frenzy knowing that she needed her mates. Alpha Hunter called Alpha Reese and he was to be arriving today with Luna Rayne to try and figure out what was going on with Willow. I was completely exhausted trying to attend to her needs, while I also was trying to take care of the pack’s needs, all while Willow slept in between. I had spilled so much of my seed inside of her that I was sure that we would be expecting a pup after this, which made me feel a bit relieved knowing that she would stay with me if she was with pup, not that I wanted that to be the reason why she cho

Willow’s POV It was crazy that when I had finally let myself love Alpha Chance and accepted his love that my heat instantly stopped. It was as if the Moon Goddess was trying to show me the way. As I lay in his arms, I finally felt like I was truly at home and that I never should have left. I stupidly fell for Damon and his damn dark magic that he had used on me to believe he was my mate and that he truly loved me and did all the right things to make me feel wanted. If Damon was my true mate, then Luna Rayne’s theory would have been the only thing that would have saved me, but that was in theory. “What are you thinking about?” Alpha Chance asks me as he brushes his fingertips gently across my arm like a feather. I didn’t know if this was the right time to tell him what I was truly thinking about, but I didn’t want there to be any secrets between the two of us, so I decided it be best to tell him, “I was thinking about what Luna Rayne had told me.” “And what is it that she told
