A Deadly Obsession Chapter 39–Old Friends
‘Did Noah, Rich, and John make it out safely?’ I mind-link Uncle Alex as we sit in my newly appointed office. ‘I got them out at three this morning. They’re driving to St. Paul, then flying to Georgia from there.’ ‘Was this office swept for listening devices?’ Uncle Alex gives a nod. ‘There are two bugs. One is in the penholder, and the other is in the fake plant above the fireplace.’ I nod. “Thank you for meeting me so early, Uncle Alex. I thought we could go over the guard schedule for the Luna,” I say, acting naturally. “Of course, Athena. Who would you like to assign to your team?” He grins, already knowing the answer. “I’d like senior warriors only. I was looking at Leah, Luca, and James as a reward for their good work yesterday.” “Of course. I will advise them at training and have someone cover their patrol duties.” “I’d also like to take Tony on as a trainee. Do you know when he will be accepted as a full pack member?” “I believe that’s supposed to happen next week.” T
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 40–An Old Threat And Cheating Mates
Andreas P.O.V “You…” I gasp in disbelief. “Hello again, Andreas.” The man who has been hunting me for the last five years stands and walks over to where I am handcuffed to a chair. “You’re behind all of this?” I ask, looking around the room and at the six large steel dog cages lined up along one wall. “I’ve been looking for you for a long time, Andreas,” he says, ignoring my question. “What made you come out of hiding?” I glare at him, refusing to talk. “It was Athena, right? She somehow found you, and you two were working together?” A small growl escapes my throat at the mention of Athena. ‘Keep it together, Andy. They can’t know she’s our mate,’ Ares warns, and I take a deep breath to try to calm myself. “You’re mistaken if you think she’ll save you. She isn’t even looking for you. As far as she knows, you’re dead.” His icy grin sends chills down my spine, and my stomach drops, as I think back to the day that feels like forever ago. “You’re little show… The camera…” The ma
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 41–Luna Cassia
Content warning: hints of r@pe and abuse. I softly knock on the door of the Lunas’ room, and I hear her say, “Come in.” I enter and close the door, lowering my head in submission to her, then sit in the chair beside her bed. “How are you feeling, Luna?” “Oh, I’m fine, thank you, Athena,” she says, but her cheeks flush and her hands nervously play with the blanket that covers her. I take a chance and reach out to place my hand on top of hers. Her hands stop fidgeting as she looks at me, her eyes welling up with tears. “You can trust me, Luna. I promised I would protect you,” I say, trying to comfort her with my touch. She takes the hand that isn’t holding mine and covers her eyes as she sobs. I get out of the chair and sit beside her on the bed. Jeopardizing my position by doing this without her permission, I lean in and hug her tightly. She gasps softly in surprise, but then hugs me and sobs into my shoulder. My heart breaks for her. ‘We can’t just use her for information, Athe
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 42–Protection Detail
‘Delta, Alpha Damon is heading this way, and he looks pissed,’ Tony mind-links me. ‘Doc, I need you to run interference with the Alpha for a minute,’ I mind-link the Doc as I stand from where I was sitting on the bed. I take a washcloth from the supply cart in the room, go into the bathroom and run it under cold water. I turn back to Luna Cassia, who gives me a confused look as I give her the washcloth. “Alpha Damon is on the way. Clean your face so he hopefully won’t notice you’ve been crying,” I tell her, and she quickly wipes the cloth over her face, her hands shaking as she does it. I squeeze her shoulder reassuringly, and she takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself. “Move out of my way, Doctor! NOW!” I hear Alpha Damon yell, and I dash to the corner of the room and stand at attention, my eyes finding a spot on the wall to focus on. The door slams open, and Alpha Damon enters, his gaze fixed on his Luna. “You weak, pathetic…” He stops speaking when I growl unintentionall
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 43–A Friendly Reunion
The Following Week “How long until they get here?” Ryna asks. “Uncle Alex said they were about ten minutes away,” I say, eager to see Jason and Jess. ‘Have you spoken to Noah recently?’ I ask through mind-link. ‘Yeah, I spoke to him yesterday. They thought they were being followed just outside Minot, but he said that Rich managed to lose them. They’ve been changing cars every two days and taking as many back roads as possible. They’re flying out of St. Paul’s today.’ ‘Great. Make sure you call him later to make sure they got to John’s grandmother’s house safely.’ ‘Will do.’ I stand up from behind my desk and walk towards the door. “Come on, let’s wait for them outside,” I say, and Ryna and I go outside to wait on the porch for Uncle Alex, Jason, and Jess. ‘Who has eyes on Damon?’ I mind-link the Crescent Warriors. ‘He’s in town. We have two warriors following him. He’s meeting with Alpha Costas again,’ Leah lets me know. ‘And the Luna?’ ‘In her office, I’m standing guard with
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 44–A Lunas Revenge
Cassia stares at me with her mouth open. Kneeling next to her, Jess asks, “Cass? Are you okay?” “I… I don’t believe you,” she says as she breaks down. “That would mean I’m mated to a monster!” “Look at her aura, Cass. She’s not lying,” Jess says softly, rubbing Cassias’ back. Cassia’s eyes meet mine, and she studies me for a moment. “Oh Goddess,” she sobs. “What if you’re wrong? What if he didn’t tell anyone about the warehouse? What if it’s all a coincidence?” “No one else knew, Cass. I don’t have any doubt in my mind that Damon is involved in my mate’s death. That he’s responsible for a lot of what’s happened to this pack,” I say sadly. “Do you know anything that could prove any of it, Cass?” Jess asks. Cassia shakes her head. “No. He never tells me anything. I’m surprised he even let me help organize the mate’s ball. He thinks Lunas should be seen and not heard…” she hiccups as she tries to hold back more tears. “What about his visits with other packs?” I ask. “What can you
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 45–A Lunas Plan
Harry places my clothes on a desk in the small guard office and then exits so that we can shift. When I’m dressed, I walk into the bunker’s main area, where everyone is waiting, and everyone falls silent. I stand there awkwardly, shifting my weight from foot to foot while everyone stares at me. ‘Remember that dream you used to have about showing up to pack school naked? This kinda feels like that,’ Enyo laughs, and my cheeks go red. “How did you command me like that, Delta?” Harry asks, breaking the silence. “I… I don’t know. It shouldn’t be possible,” I say as I run my fingers through my hair. The door swings open behind me, and Ryna, Uncle Alex, and Jason enter but stop when they sense the tension in the room. “What’s going on?” Jason asks. “Athena can Alpha command,” Tony blurts out with excitement. “What?” Uncle Alex gasps. I pinch the bridge of my nose. “It wasn’t an Alpha command,” I say with an exasperated sigh. “Then how do you explain your command being stronger than
A Deadly Obsession Chapter 46–Female Bonding
Day of the Mate Ball “This is outrageous! I want to see my mate, NOW!” Damon screams in my face. I smile at him as I wipe droplets of spit off my face. “I’m sorry, Alpha. She doesn’t want to see you before the ball. She wants her dress to be a surprise,” I lie. “I haven’t seen my mate since Laura died, and I want to speak with her! Two weeks is too long!” He yells. “She’s been very busy with the final preparations for the ball, Alpha. Don’t you like what we did with the pack hall and the beautiful canopies? I think the fairy lights will make everything look magical when night falls,” I say with an innocent smile. “Yes, everything looks very nice,” Damon says, his teeth clenched. “However, very important people are attending this event, and I want to ensure that everything runs smoothly.” “I can assure you, Alpha, that Luna Cassia has meticulously gone over every detail. To be honest, she’s been running us ragged,” I chuckle. Before he can respond, I hear a window upstairs slide
