Rush We’ve been searching for Lotty for days now and still nothing. No one saw anything, no one knows anything. We have a fucking invisible enemy. “How is she?” Landon asks for the hundredth time; I glare at him. “How do you think she is?” seeing Maze on the floor of our daughter’s room screaming and wailing, never in my life do I ever want to hear those screams again. It took six sedative shots to get her to quieten down and when she came to, she blamed herself. Blaze didn’t help by saying she would have been safer back in his home pack. We all know that’s a lie. But Maze, she took it to heart and hasn’t spoken a word in four fucking days. “If I knew, I wouldn’t be asking you.” Landon sounds equally pissed. He and Blaze fought until several guards pulled them apart. Mazy always talked highly of Blaze, but I’m wondering if he ever had her best interests at heart. He took my side, allowing me to see our daughter behind her back, when he should have taken hers and now, he blames her
Landon Something isn’t right with Stella; she’s been different ever since we returned from the battle at Moon King Pack. Her scent has changed slightly. It could be from motherhood, but usually, that scent is a mingling of our family, father, mother, and son. Just like Maze, Rush, and Lotty, they all have a distinct scent, but they’ve mingled altogether so you know they’re family. “I’m sorry we can’t be of more use to you, Landon.” Alpha Charlie pats my shoulder. “Please let Alpha Rush and Luna Mazelina know we are here to support them in any way we can.” I nod, “Thank you, Alpha Charlie.” He laughs, “Just Charlie to you, old friend.” I smile at Charlie. We’ve been close friends for many, many years and now he is old and grey, lines etched on his face, showing his true age. This is the problem with being immortal. You outlive the ones who are important to you. “Thanks, Just Charlie,” I smirk, he claps my back. “Always a smartass.” I shrug. “I have to get going.” “You going t
Rush My office is overcrowded with maps and paperwork everywhere. Maze has been quiet for the most part while we send trackers back and forth. Elion comes back with nothing, telling us that Landon is on his way home. Right now, Elion’s looking at a new map further out of our territory. I couldn’t imagine Charlotte being so far away from us but then if Maze can’t feel her maybe it’s because of the distance? Fuck! I don’t know. I rub my eyes with the back of my hands, “We will find her.” Elion sounds more determined than I feel. It’s almost been a week since they took her and nothing, no ransom, no gloating that they have our daughter. Just complete silence. My door slams open and Landon storms in, “What did you find?” “We have a mole in our pack.” I blink at him in surprise, “Who?” He starts pacing the room, “I don’t know. I’ve been thinking about this for hours and can’t come up with any one specific.” “Then how do you know it’s from our pack?” I look out my office window and w
Rush When we walked in the door, Stella and Landon were in the middle of an argument. “I know you fucked her. I know it!” Stella screams. “We have been over this before Stella, nothing has ever happened between Mazy and me. She’s my family and that’s all it is.” Landon at least sounds calm. “You expect me to believe that!” she screeches. “I see the way you look at her.” Maze looks up at me red as a balloon with embarrassment, “You know it’s not true. Right?” “Babe, I would know if you had romantic feelings for another. We’ve wolves remember.” I hold her tight against me. “You knew when I was with other women.” I feel her nod against my chest. “Maze, I will always regret what I did to you, to us.” Her light blue eyes find mine. “We both have regrets, ones that no longer matter. Not now. Not when-” “THERE IS NOTHING GOING ON!” Landon bellows cutting Maze off mid-sentence, we both run into the house, Landon is pacing the room pulling at his hair, and Stella looks like she’s ready
The Enemy Never have my people ever known me for my patience. It’s not like centuries ago when our kind was ruthless in getting the job done. Now in this day and age, everything is far more strategic. You have to be a forward thinker, with technology and so many humans knowing about our kind it’s too risky to start a war of any kind. The snowy mountainside is beautiful this time of year. The snow is falling heavily, making visibility even poor for us Vampires. Having the wolf child isn’t exactly starting a war but it is a start to what I want. I smile in anticipation for Mazelina Winslow. The moment she steps into my home I will send the child back to the pack and keep Mazelina for myself. I have her room ready for her, just how she likes it. “Sir?” Anton announces himself as he enters my study. “Yes?” I enquire without turning around. “Geri has arrived.” “Good. Have they sent Mazelina to her rooms?” “Ah, um.” “Spit it out, Anton.” “No, Sir. She has not.” I turn swiftly. “An
LandonWith a slam of the car door and a shake of my head. I find myself amused that I’m back here so soon. Elion exits the car and we both approach Sally’s cottage.“This place is fucking creepy.” Elion laughs nervously under his breath.“This cottage is older than me. Sometimes she forgets to immerse herself into the real world.”“What do you mean?”“Sally never left her home for nearly three decades.” he looks at me stunned. “She ventured out here in the forest but that’s as far as she would go. Time for some immortals feels different to others. Three decades almost felt like three days to her.” I shrug at his bemused expression, “She just gets lost in herself.”“How old is she?” he asks incredulously.“Sally told me once a long time ago that she was four hundred years old. I’ve suspected that she’s much older than She leads on. She also told me she was around before there were shifters.” I stop before knocking on the door and tell him in a low voice, “Just be careful, she can twis
Landon A whoosh sound and Sally appears before my eyes. I rush to her side and grab her by the shoulders. “What the hell happened to you?”“Fenrir.”I shake my head, suddenly feeling sick. “What? No, I don’t believe it. He would never.”“He believes Samara lives.”I stare at her confused, “What do you mean, ‘Fenrir believes’?”“He believes Samara lives through Mazelina.”“Maze’s wolf’s name is Samara,” Elion says. I glare at him, I know that, but Sally didn’t.“Then it’s true.” Sally falls onto her chair, “Samara has come back.”“This shouldn’t be a surprise to you, Sally. We all know how we receive our shifter spirits.”“Does she know?” she asks.“No. So many shifters have the name Samara from long before Mazelina was born.” I shake my head in exasperation.“I’m calling my Alpha right now.” Elion leaves the room.“We should stop him,” Sally tells me but doesn’t make a move to stop him herself when we both know she could.“No. Rush and Maze need to know what they’re up against. What
Mazelina We find Daisy hunched over on the hospital bed. Aries is sitting on his haunches at the end of the bed on the floor, growling at anyone who is brave enough to take a step closer. “Brother.” I mind-link him, his large wolf's head swivels in my direction, “May I approach Daisy?” He lets out a low growl, “Remember Lox, I brought you two back together, I can help Daisy.” Aries whines, “Please help her” I rush to Daisy’s side, “Daisy? Can you tell me what’s wrong?” She looks up at me, her eyes bloodshot and unmoving, her eyelids flutter close and her brows furrowed in pain. I close my eyes and cup her face. I take a deep breath in taking her pain. She slumps forward, I barely catch her in time, “Daisy, can you tell me what’s wrong?” “Pain here.” She points to her stomach, “And blood. Lots of blood.” She points between her legs. I turn around, “Everyone out of this room now.” Aries lets out a feral growl, followed by Rush growling and standing over me protectively, “Everyone
