Do you know that little voice in your head? Lila has that voice, but it's like someone else suddenly takes up space inside her mind. That little voice isn't so little in Lila's case. Lila has always wanted to escape her life, and now that chance is coming sooner than she ever expected, but what is she escaping or falling into? Lila's world gets turned upside down when she discovers she is a wolf shifter. To top it off, everything she thought she knew about her mother is brought into question, and her father, the only family she has, suddenly betrays her in the worst way possible.
View MoreWe have been to five packs so far, and four of them are taking the information seriously and have agreed to stand by us. Today, we are on our way to a pack in California. The travel locations are sporadic based on who agrees to see us. I can't say I'm upset that in just another three hours, we will be at the Chimariko pack, and we plan to stay for a couple of days, so if anyone needs me, they'll have to come find me at the beach. I'm in the driver's seat of the large eight-passenger SUV. Luke is sitting next to me in the passengers seat. Lila and Ezra are in the back seat, and we are followed by two other SUV's. When I heard Lila's phone ring, she was a little on edge lately. I can tell it is Abigail on the phone based on the excitement and hesitation I see on her face when I look into the rearview mirror. I know she's been waiting to her back from her brother or at least hoping to hear from him. I heard Lila's side of the conversation. "Really?! That's great news." "Yeah, I just c
Please, before you read this chapter, mention sexual assault with a very brief flashback. The scene is brief and doesn't go into terrible detail, but this can be triggering, and I want to ensure you know you can skip to the second paragraph and avoid this scene.I am sitting in my room reading the letter that the dumb sl*t brought me. Margot told me about the letter as she was kneeling in front of me; that girl would do absolutely anything for her next fix. It's hard for me to say no when she offers herself. She is beautiful with dark brown hair and mocha skin. I know many wolves wait to have sex until they meet their mate out of respect because our wolves are so jealous. I thought I would wait, but mom sent two girls, well, two women, to my room when I was thirteen. I tried to hold out against the temptation, but mom fed me a little blue pill after one of the women went back out to tell her I wasn't performing, and now look at me handing out drugs to get my d*ck wet.The letter Margo
The room Ray and Abigail let us stay in was gorgeous. It's different from my personal taste, but you can't deny the beauty. The room had three white walls, and the one that paralleled the foot of the bed was a dark navy blue. The furniture was all white. A four-post canopy bed was a feature of the room. The fabric draped on it was a sheer, almost silk-like tulle that was also navy but so sheer you only see that dark navy where it bunches together. A small living space hosted a white rocking chair, a love chair, and a coffee table. On the coffee table was a clear vase filled with blue flowers, cornflowers, and white roses. There was a stack of three books and a stationary set with a pen. On the stationary sat a small note-card. Lila, I thought you might need this. -Abigail My breath caught at Abigail's kindness. The fact that she sent this to the room for me meant so much. Luke read the note over my shoulder, kissing and nibbling along my neck and collarbone. A shiver went through m
As Luke finished telling Ray and Abigail all that had happened up until now, Ray turned to look at me."I am so sorry you have had to go through all of this." I could hear the pity in his voice, and I despised that. I haven't had the best of luck times, but I don't need anyone's pity. I have a beautiful life, even if it is unconventional. I have an amazing husband and the most beautiful son. I am nothing if not blessed in the family I have found. I sat up straighter and squared my shoulders."Alpha Ray, I am so grateful you are hosting us, but I don't need your pity. I need your help. As Luke said, we are building an army. I want you as an ally because what Gemma is doing won't just affect our pack. Gemma may be the woman who birthed me, but she is not my mother. She is a cancer, and she will spread her vile poison if not dealt with soon." I pick up the water before me and take a long drink, hoping to swallow back any emotion that may try to break through."I don't pity you. I apologi
Things had been calm for a while, and I had been spending a lot of time training with Donte. After numerous conversations with Luke and Jake and the continued monitoring activity around Hudson and Gemma, we decided it was time to start traveling. The number of wolves that appear to be moving towards Gemma and Hudson is very concerning, and if we are going to stand a chance when they undoubtedly attack us, we need to grow and have time to train new pack numbers. We also don't want to see wolves find their way to Gemma and Hudson because they simply need a place to be safe and feel like they belong. I still hope that maybe Hudson isn't the monster everyone thinks he is and that maybe, just maybe, if I had the opportunity to speak to him, really speak to him, he would be able to see the lies Gemma has told him about me, and I wouldn't have to lose the brother I just learned about. I know that's far-fetched, though. I can't help but hold onto the tiny little piece of hope, though. Jake h
Lila was quiet for a few days after learning about Hudson. When she had time to process everything, I thought she would want to talk about it. Boy, was I wrong? It seems like she wants to pretend it didn't happen, so that's what we've been doing, just ignoring it all. I've met with Jake a few times, and he's gathered a lot of information. She hasn't been ready to hear it, though. We've just been focused on building the new housing for the misfits that are Lila's pack. She's an amazing Luna. She took the time to meet each and every one of the pack members. She has even come by training outside of our private training sessions to show she is working hard beside her pack. It's weird to me to know that she isn't just a Luna but that she is an Alpha. She has her pack of misfits and while they may have accepted Luke as their Alpha they answer to Lila. She has worked her way into the heart of this pack. I can't help but think of all the changes that came with Lila. The packhouse has been fu
Luke had to go to work the morning after our wedding, but I wanted to see my husband. That is crazy to me. I have a husband and a son. Last night, not only did we get married, but we adopted Ezra, and honestly, I couldn't have been happier. On our way to bring Donte and Luke's lunch, Ezra fell into what we found out to be a lava tube system. Lava tubes can be found in multiple states and were created when a volcano erupted years ago. The lava made a path, but when the eruption stopped, the lava drained out, creating a cave-like structure underground. The one that Hudson hid out in was about a half mile long. Ezra and I waited up top while Luke and Donte searched the space. It didn't take too long before Luke came up. He had a paper grip so tightly in his hands his knuckles were turning white. I could see the fury on his face and feel it flooding through him. "What's wrong?" I asked, standing up and walking to him. He let out a heavy sigh. "Lila, he was here for you," Luke said with
Marrying Lila was by far the best decision I could have made. Marriage isn't a common thing for us. We bonded, but I knew Lila would better understand the commitment of marriage, as she wasn't raised to know the ins and outs of wolf dynamics. Marrying her affected me more than I thought it would, though. Seeing her walk down the aisle to me and listening to her vows was just more than I expected. Waking up next to her is intoxicating. I groaned, wanting to stay in bed next to this magnificent creature that I can now call my wife and my mate, but I had to meet with the guards. Hudson, that little weasel, somehow got off packland last night. I am livid that he got past the guys working the border. I need to get a team together and start searching the land in the area where he escaped to try and find out where he stayed. Guards had been looking for him before last night, but we thought he had already left, so we weren't as serious about the search as we should have been. Knowing he was s
Anticipation and excitement surged through me as Luka and I entered our bedroom."Do you need help getting out of your dress?" already coming behind me and helping to unfasten the delicate button. His warm fingers brush slowly along my spine with each button he releases, and it causes a warmth to pulsate into my core. I can already feel my panties become damp with my desire. I hear Luke inhale deeply, and I can scent my arousal. My dress falls to the floor, and Lukes turns me gently so I'm facing him in just my strapless bra, lacy panties, and high heels.I feel so connected to Luke in a way I couldn't have imagined. He smiles at me with his luscious lips, and he leans down, taking my mouth in his. His breath is warm and tastes of chocolate and champagne. His tongue moves along my lips as I grant him access. I return his kiss, and he wraps one hand around my waist, the other finding its way into my hair. He pulls gently, causing my head to tilt back, granting him better access to my m
