Our induction ceremony was supposed to be held in the evening but we arrived at the pack around 9 a.m. I didn’t want to face Jake and address the issue with Greg so I went to the daycare. Diana didn’t want to leave me there alone so she came with me and I felt bad for pulling her away from her time with Greg.
Greg assured me it was okay and he needed to use the day to get all his things ready before the ceremony.
“Do you have a dress for the ceremony?” Diana asked and I just shrugged.
“I’ll just wear one of my old dresses,”
“Are you insane?” she asked, “This is like the most important day of your life. You can’t wear an old dress.”
“I don’t have any money to get a new one,” I

“Did you put this on my bed?” I asked holding up the letter and he eyed it with thinly veiled annoyance. “Why would I put a letter on your bed?”“Someone’s in the house then,” I said and he scoffed, “I’m serious; someone put this on my bed.” “There is no one in this house except the both of us,” he said, “And now that you’re finally here; we have a lot to discuss.”“I don’t have time for this,” I began, “I need to call Greg.” “You will not-““Shut up!” I screamed and then I realized what I had done, “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to scream.” I quic

Logan took us to his place and throughout the ride both he and Greg kept on casting worried glances at me while Diana kept a comforting hand on my shoulder.“How did he find out she is here?” Logan asked as soon as we had all settled down in the house, “Did anyone see you when you got back to the town?” “The only people who saw us are the people who actually live in the town,” Greg said, “And as far as I know they’re all humans.”“He knew where I was from day one,” I said softly and they all turned to me, “Maybe not from day one but he found out a long time ago.” “What are you talking about?” Greg asked and I finally raised my head to look at him.“Don

I don’t know what time I fell asleep, I was too busy staring at the four corners of the room in fear that something or someone would jump out of the shadows. I almost gave up and called Greg a few times but I fought against it.He deserves a good and peaceful moment with his mate without me interrupting it with my problems. All I’ve ever done is be a cock block; it’s just one night and I can handle it. Tiredness must have seeped in sometime later because I opened my eyes later and the first thing I felt was aching eyes a slight headache.I used the morning light to properly look around the room. It was a bit more extravagant than the one at Jake’s house with a huge vanity at one corner and a walk in closet right next to the bathroom door.The walls were painted a bright white color but there was a pale pink rug that covered the tiled floor at the foot of the bed. A flat screen TV lai

Driving with Logan was weirdly nice. There was silence but it wasn’t the same kind of silence I had with Jake where I didn’t speak because I didn’t want to upset him so he wouldn’t hit me. It was actually comforting and it gave me enough time to watch him through the corner of my eyes.I never knew how hot it was to watch someone drive.‘Cut it out you perv.’ I yelled at my inner subconscious.When I got to the daycare I almost expected things to be weird between Diana and I but she pretended like last night never happened and we fell into a familiar pattern.“When are you baking next?” she asked from where she was changing a child’s diapers and I shrugged. “I don’t think I’m going to bake anymore.”“But why no

Ever since that day Logan has been a whole other level of overprotective. He has guards trailing me whenever he’s not around; at least he tried by making them almost unnoticeable but I’ve had guards trail me my entire life so I noticed them on the second day. Usually I’d find it stifling but I know he’s doing it because he cares so I don’t mind it.Diana isn’t any better. When she came back that day she has been all over me. She doesn’t like to leave me alone and now it’s like I’m a little kid who has to be constantly watched. Logan watches me at the house, she watches me at work and then repeat the cycle.I did end up taking her advice and asking Logan if I could continue baking and he told me the kitchen is mine to do with as I wish. Needless to say, it has been very fun. He’s also my taste tester for all my pastries.“What are you thinking

Greg took the box out of my lap and cursed when he saw the same thing I did- the severed head and heart of Mrs. Wiggins.I knew the image would haunt me forever. Her eyes, bloody and wide open and her mouth open forever in a silent scream. I tried but I couldn’t forget the gashes that covered her cheeks and I knew without a doubt that her death was not swift or painless. And then to top it off there was bloody pulp that used to be her kind, beating heart.Even if I tried, even if I took a thousand years; I would never forget this image. Not when it is all my fault.“This is fucking crazy,” he growled, “What the actual hell.”I broke down into loud and heartbroken sobs, unable to control my reaction and Greg pulled the cover over the box; effectively blocking out the smell that I knew I also would never forget, threw the box to the back and unbuckled my seat

If you could see how tense everyone was; you would think that they were the ones with a psycho Alpha on their backs and not me. Logan wants to double the security and he already sent a few people to Frank’s bakery to try to figure out who sent the package and he has another set of people watching the CCTV footage on the streets.Greg is almost as bad as him, he’s fussing over everything and he looks two seconds away from tearing his hair out of his head. In fact, I’m surprised he hasn’t already from the way he has been tugging on his strands.They both went outside to look at the package again and Diana stood up to make me something so I was left in the living room alone.It wasn’t up to two minutes when Logan and Greg walked in again with a bloody note in Logan’s hands.“What is that?” I asked my eyes moving between the note and their fac

Logan increased my security and he called an emergency pack meeting to announce a curfew and I couldn’t help but get scared on how everyone would take the news.Parents had just started bringing in their children when Diana walked in. She gave me a hug and took a long swig from her flask when it dawned on me.“You drugged me,” I said and she raised a brow, “You drugged the tea yesterday.” At least she had the decency to look ashamed. “You were so close to having a panic attack,” she said, “I just did what I could to help you calm down.”“What happened to hugs and massages?” I asked sarcastically and she let out a small laugh, “Thank you for trying to calm me down but let’s try something more conventional next time alright?”
