Landon really hasn't spoken since we escaped. We have been running ourselves ragged. I'm so tired, I'm uncertain how much more I can handle. We haven't had over 2 hours of rest at a time. I do not know where he is taking us. I'm not even sure if he knows where we are going.
Star hasn't communicated with me since we left Ivan. She is worried about our mate, and she begged me to stay, but I just couldn't. Even though he is my mate, Landon and Jayden mean more to me than he ever could. Ivan is just a bond. I know that it may be for life, but it doesn't mean I will ever love him.
I watch as Jayden is starting to wake up. I watch him peek back at me and smile. His smile does something to me. It gives me hope that everything will be okay. I feel relaxed and not so worried. Well, at least not at this moment, anyway. Knowing that this bond I have with Jayden is stronger than any mate bond will ever be.
Suddenly, I feel a pain that shoots through my body and makes
I close my eyes and accept our fate. I know it's cowardly, but I am just so tired of fighting. Maybe it would just be better off. I feel it would be better not to give up mentally, but physically I just can't handle anymore. As the footsteps sound right next to me, then stop. I then hear a voice that I have never heard before. Jayden wraps me into a bear hug. I put his head into my chest.Then a power that I have never felt before begins to run through my veins. I am not understanding where I am getting this strength from, but I then shift into my wolf. I block Jayden from them, not knowing what I'm about to get myself into, but not caring. I will give my life to protect his.I feel like I am full of rage, and it's hard to control as I let out a howl that is so infuriating that it pushes back the person who is closest to us. I notice that they aren't shifted, not understanding why. I will not be taken easily, and I will do whatever is necessary to protect my cub.
LANDON'S POVOnce we get back, I'm nervous, not knowing if they will find us here or not. My father is such a ruthless man, all he wants is power. The strings that he went through to make all this happen is beyond me. How could I have been so stupid? I should have known better, but I was just blinded by all of it. All of this time, my mother was right.I knew I was different from all the other wolves, but I just played it off like I was no different. I just wanted to be like everybody else. I didn't tell anybody that I was different, I didn't even know what I was. I tried to ignore all that was happening. I was afraid of the truth, I chose to stay clear of it.My mother told me stories, but I never believed her. I thought she was crazy. Once I found my mate, I ignored my so-called powers and moved with her. When she was killed, my heart broke. I wanted to die too. I was at my lowest point, so I decided I wanted to die. I went to the top of wicked falls and
LANDON'S POVIt has been busy, and Lily still has not woken up. I'm starting to get concerned, even though my mother is telling me that her body needs rest and once she is fully rested, she will wake up. I feel that all of this is my fault, sometimes I wish that we had never met. Wondering if all this pain that I cost her would have never happened.I know that I have so much that I need to make up to her. I'm not even sure if she's going to allow me to even be in her life. I can't believe I was so dumb. I am still trying to forgive myself for all that I have done to her. All I want is for her to be OK. I know that we all have a long road in front of us. Figuring out all that we need to do just to be safe.This place is so hidden, even if they do come look for us here, it's like we are camouflaged, unable to be seen. Sometimes I feel this place makes no sense. It's almost like it's a magical area that all the outside world is just sealed off to it. I worry
LILLY'S POVI am so weak I can't move when I open my eyes all I see is black I become confused. I then have trouble knowing if my eyes are open or shut. I look around trying to find any light but nothing. What the fuck is going on I go to move but I cant move its like I'm paralyzed. I hear a voice it sounds like a female voice but I'm not sure who it is I never heard this voice before. Who could this be and what do they want with me.I can tell the voice is getting closer i start to become nervous trying to make out what she is saying but i can't I start to become angry with myself for not being able to understand what she is saying. I open my mouth to scream what do you want but nothing comes out it's like I'm mute.What the fuck is happening I have no idea. Was I captured Oh my God Jayden what if they attacked us and now we're being held captive. I become so frustrated trying to break free trying to bring my body back from being paralyzed but nothing I c
As I am looking around the room, I am surprised to see Landon by my bedside, holding my hand. What the fuck is this all that he has done? He thinks he can touch me. I pull my arm out from underneath him, I watch as he jumps awake. “Oh my God Lilly you're awake.”He goes to hug me, but I shout out to him “don't you dare touch me.”As I'm looking at him, I can see the disappointment on his face. I'm trying to ignore it. I am so sick and tired of everyone causing me pain. I am taking charge of myself and not allowing it to happen ever again. I feel bad that his mate betrayed him, but that is not my problem. My issue right now is protecting Jayden and taking over the werewolves oh and finding out who killed my family, so I can make them suffer for what did.“Lilly, please, I'm sorry for all that has happened. I know that it will take a lot for you to forgive me, but please find it in your heart.”“Are you fucking kidd
As I watch Landon's mother leave the room so I can shower. They offered to help but I want to be able to do it on my own. I stumble to the bathroom as my arms Reached the walls as I catch myself from falling. I do not feel pain just weakness like I've been laying forever. I need to gain my strength training is going to start. I will need to be prepared I already talk Landon into this. It must be ready when it starts so I will have to pull myself together.As I walk into the bathroom I turn the water on as I can see the hot water builds steam into the bathroom I inhale it in my lungs the lungs then begin to cough it out but at the same time it feels good. It's like going to get into the shower I feel the water It's so hot it feels like it Burns my skin. I jump backwards and then Turn some cold on to cool it down just a tad. Then it's perfect I get in to the shower and just let the water pour over my nakedness.The water feels so good I can feel my musc
We have been training for days. It seems like we have been working ourselves to the bone. I can't help but to watch Landon as he is helping train others to protect themselves. I watch as he moves in all direction's, god he looks so fucking good. I began remembering his taste on how yummy he is.God, what it would be like feeling his hands on my body. I miss his touch. I hate that he makes me feel something that no one else can, even my mate. Not like I really know what true love feels like, I guess. Then again, I know that I shared true love with my family. But the love that you share with your partner is different, that is the one I have never experienced. But what I do know is that Landon's touch was memorizing. I think that's why I fail in love with him so easily.I really wish things were different, that he didn't betray me. Now all I feel is hatred and wanting revenge. I'm trying not to be that kind of person, but it's hard. He allowed Ivan to kill my baby. How ca
As I walk into Landon's mother's house, I look at her walls and all I see is history. Most of the things I don't even understand, but my guess is once she found out what Landon was, she wanted to know all that she could so she could protect him. I know that I would do the same thing for Jayden. I would go to the ends of the Earth for him.As I get closer to the writings that are on the wall, I don't understand what they say. They're in a different language. I want to ask, but I don't want to seem nosey. I want to make sense of all of this, but I don't know how. “I tried to figure out everything I possibly could about healers, but the problem I came across was nobody knew the language of the writings.”It was like she read my mind. She knew what I was thinking. I look at her and smile. “I wish that all of this would be over, that we wouldn't have to fight. We could just live a normal life.”“My dear, you will never live a normal life
