Damien’s POV
The omega promised to keep me updated on my father’s health. I felt horrible for leaving but there was nothing I could do for him. His life was going to end no matter what, it might be days or even weeks, but his time would come.
Austin came with a couple of bags packed and his car full of snacks. It was larger than mine and we had a long way to travel. I was grateful for how prepared he was.
Saying goodbye to my sleeping father, we set off. Neither of us had a clue where we would find the Blood pack and Austin tells me that they are likely to find us first. He suggests we head towards Iceland; the Blood pack are known for living in colder climates and maybe it would be a good starting point.
As we take it in turns to drive, we keep the chat basic. He wa
Irina’s POV“Ivan tried to rape you. That seems highly unlikely. I’ve known the guy for years. He wouldn’t do such a thing.”Shaun carries on stuffing his mouth, acting like I was making the whole thing up and being dramatic. He wasn’t there though, he didn’t see how angry Ivan was, or how creepy he became when he touched me.“You’re really going to defend him?” I was beyond angry“Why are you even here Irina? Especially if you are going to talk shit about your new Alpha” he seemed completely unphased by what I was telling him and immediately defended Ivan.“I have no choice”“Everyone has a
Forty fiveDamien’s POV“Who marked her Alpha Damien?”Her crimson eyes glowered at me“Why does that matter?”I didn’t want to tell her everything. The less people knew the better.“Alpha Damien, if it was not you who marked her then you need to tell me right now who it was.”Alpha Phoenix was annoyed, her eyes remain on me the entire time and I could hear the whispers of her guards. The panic of knowing what Irina is.“You might as well tell her.” Austin nods towards me “Or we are probably not leaving anytime soon”
Irina’s POVI try the handle; it was no surprise to find it locked. A chill runs over me, I knew he was behind me before I turned around. Slowly turning, I see him leaning against the stair railing. His hands in his pockets, freshly shaven and wearing a shirt and jeans.His eyes do not meet mine; he keeps his gaze slightly lowered. “I am truly sorry for what I did” I stay rooted to the spot. I couldn’t tell if he was being genuine or not. “Y…You cannot apologise for something like that.” Looking around, there was no where for me to escape. I was trapped here with him. “It is not something I can control Irina. You don’t understand. You were promised to me, and my wolf and I have been waiting a long time for you.” Ivan holds a frown, which was puzzling me. He didn’t have anything to frown about, he wasn't the victim. “Are you going to try that again?” “I don’t intend to”
Damien’s POVWhen we land in Iceland, the temperature had already dropped. You could definitely tell that we were tourists with the way we were wrapped up in coats, hats and thick snow trousers. Some humans looked at us oddly but what I was most surprised about was the number of wolves that were here and news of our arrival spread like wild fire.Some of them welcomed us, while others gave us the side eye.Austin and I found a café and as we were sitting down a huge man moves over to us. It was obvious he was a wolf by his scent, but he was different to others that we had seen. His ears were pointed just like Ivan’s, his eyes dark and unlike others around here, he was shirtless, revealing his large muscles.“Who are you and what are you doing here?”He leans forward on the table, resting on his knuckles. A clear indicator that he did not want us here.“We are seeking someone”
Irina’s POV “UHHH” I groan as Ivan appears above me. He looks at me and then his eyes travel south. “Well, I would say you have broken your leg in a couple of places. This is probably going to hurt.” Ivan crouches beside me, the streetlight giving him an eerie glow in the dark. He rips my joggers apart to reveal my broken leg just as Shaun appears by my side. Ivan’s cold hands run over my skin, a scream rips through me as he adjusts my leg and I could feel myself panting. “You will heal properly within a couple of hours, can you walk?” I can’t answer, I just lay there trying to work out what was going on. Neither Ivan nor Shaun seemed bothered about the fighting that I had heard. “Why did you climb out the window?” Shaun asks curiously as he offers me a hand and I see Ivan roll his eyes. Refusing to take it, I push myself to a sitting position and look at my bare leg, the skin wound was already healing but it didn’t stop the pa
Irina’s POV It was such a relief to hear Damien's voice even if it was only in my head. Yet, no matter what I did, I couldn’t communicate back with him. There was no light in the dungeon, other than a small window in the top of the rafters. I could tell the sun was up by the tiny glow that forced its way in and the shadows that were cast in the roof. My leg throbbed and felt a little swollen, but I try to make myself comfortable on the crappy piece of wood that was my bed. I would still rather be here than in Ivan’s bedroom. The screams and wails didn’t stop and as much as I tried to sleep I just couldn’t. I had heard Damien; At least he was still thinking about me. Although his words were a little cryptic. What did he
Damien’s POVIt was the longest twenty-four hours I had ever experienced.Alpha Ketill stuck to his word. Austin and I were allowed to move around his pack without any guards. The people here greeted us but still kept their distance. After all, we were outsiders, we didn't belong.For meals we were asked to join Alpha Ketill, who always seemed very happy to see us. Maybe a little too happy but at least we were not just thrown into their dungeons like Austin expected.Alpha Ketill asked us many questions about Irina and Kelly. He was sad to hear of his daughters passing and tells us that he regretted not patching things up with Kelly because he never got to see his granddaughter grow up.“Tell me, does Irina look l
Irina’s POVI heard her, the omega or worker, whatever she was. She told Damien to get me out of here.I pretend to not have heard. Honesty I was so overwhelmed with what had just happened. The beast just came out of me. I had no control over it, nor was I expecting it.The beast I had fought against looked just like me. I had never seen another one that looked like me. I had heard the word granddaughter thrown about, was the other beast my grandfather? The Blood Alpha??It was hard to process, everything becomes hazy when I shift.“Irina, please speak to me”Damien lowers me to my feet, but I could
