Irina’s POV
I look down at the dagger I had just put down. Damien told me that it was the dagger Vivian had and yet it felt like it belonged to me.
“It is ours” Raine murmurs
“How do you know?”
“The markings, it is an old werewolf language. It contains our names”
“How is that even possible?”
Raine shrugs as I just stare at the dagger.
“Raine reckons the markings mean our name”
Damien raises an eyebrow at me “How would that be possible; the Blood pack have never known of your existence”
I shrug my shoulders at him, I had no idea, I had n
Damien’s POV “What do you know Austin?” He sneers at me; I want to punch him in the face but I needed answers first. I needed to know what he had discovered about my mate. “You have no idea what they are capable of do you?” “What are you trying to say Austin?” He turns his head towards Irina and grins like a mad man “Death follows them everywhere” “Don’t talk shit about things you do not know Austin” “But I do know. Why do you think they live where they do? Why do you think your father invited Kelly to the war? Why do you think that dagger belongs to her?” I let him go, taking a ste
Forty Irina’s POV When I heard Alpha Ivan clapping, I shuddered as the fear crept over me. I tried to back away but somehow he had a weird hold over me and I couldn’t get away from him. As soon as he shouted ‘Shift’, my body began changing on its own. I didn’t like the way my wolf looked, how it was responding to Ivan's command, how a single word seemed to be able to control me. Raine does not answer me when I ask, she is silent as the tears fall from my eyes. I could do little more than stare at Alpha Ivan’s back. He had me over his shoulder, an arm wrapped around my legs as my bound hands dangled when he walked away from the packhouse. He smacks my butt, laughing “Just what I ordered”
Damien’s POV “Irina’s grandfather?” Austin nods his head at me as my father looks away “He is still the Alpha of Blood pack” “Does he know of Irina’s existence?” “Most likely. There was a rumour that went around when your father and I were children. If a female from their pack shifts, all the males of Blood pack would know about it. He may not know that she is his grandchild, but he will know that Irina exists” “Why are you even telling me this? I thought you hated me after Vivian” “I do but I still belong to this pack” I turn to my father “Why? Why did you tell Ivan where she was?”
Irina’s POVHe was holding me firmly. His horrible coldness touching my skin as he carried me. Why was I always being carried? I had legs; I was more than capable of walking.“What are we going to do with you?” his voice was deepAs I slowly open my eyes I see the underneath of his jaw, which jutted out sharply, stubble covering every inch. Ivan keeps his face up as he walks but he knew I was awake.I had no idea how long I had been out for, but I was very aware that I was still only in Ivan’s jacket.I shudder and he stops walking, looking down at me with his dark eyes he frowns and continues walking.I could try and fight him, although I am not sure how w
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”
