Chapter FifteenCellHannah groaned starting to come too, pulling Nora away from the bars. Her mind going to caring for her. She was taking the wolfsbane hard. She must have never been exposed to it before. Nora touched her forehead. She was getting warm. She frowned, she needed to talk to someone. “Hello!” She shouted into the darkness,trying to get a guard or someone's attention.“Nora?” Jace’s weak but voice came down the hall to her.“I’m ok. I need someone for Hannah.” Nora said to him quickly.“Hello! Hey!” Nora shouted louder and then began knocking her chains against the bar.“Nora, you can’t let them know how you're holding up.” Jace whispered back quickly. He was worried that if they knew she was resistant to wolfsbane that they would do something worse. It affected her but not as badly as others.“Well I can’t just sit here.” Nora said back, still taping her cuffs and chains against the bars.“Act weak!” Jace said in an angry voice.“What’s going on in here!” A new voice
Chapter SixteenWolf“I need a medic. A real medic not ours. Get me who's in charge of Cross River’s medical.” Ronan sent out a mindlink to Kai.“Yes Beta.” Kai sent back.He pulled the shirt down over his head just as he heard the bathroom door click open. She walked out of the bathroom, her eyes catching a glimpse of his bare chest and stomach. She felt a tingle run through her, the thought of running her hand down over them made her feel flush as she tried to look elsewhere. Her mind went to them sitting on the bathroom floor herself naked in his lap. The way his mouth felt on her skin. She could feel her cheeks getting hot.“You ok?” Ronan asked her, seeing her walk slowly out.“Yeah, it just hurts now.” Mallory said walking out into the room more trying to chase the thoughts of him away.“I have someone coming to look at you.” Ronan said his face studying the way she moved.“I’m fine really.” Mallory said moving out of the bathroom doorway.“You're getting looked at.” Ronan said,
Chapter OneIt beginsHer screams echoed down the hall. Matt threw his hands behind his head as he paced. He glanced over to Lilly who was rocking in the chair. He gritted his teeth and knew her thoughts mimicked his. “She's gonna be ok." Logan said, grabbing the back of Lilly's chair to make her stop rocking." She will be fine.” Dante said his tone is not as strong as Logans.“I can't listen to that anymore. Let me know when she's ok." Lilly said getting up and rushing out of the hospital door. Matt glanced at Logan confused before following Lilly out. Dante rubbed Sarah's shoulder feeling her need for comfort. They were all waiting and they were all scared."Lilly!” Matt called after her.Lilly stopped short, not saying anything. Her back facing Matt as he felt her overwhelming feeling of fear." She's strong, she's going to get through this. She's - “Matt, I'm pregnant. I don't know if I can do that.” Lilly blurted out." Really.” Matt said trying to mask the happiness in his v
Chapter TwoGatheringNora bit her lip as she strangled her pinky finger in her hand. She glanced at the clock, the council members and a small amount of their pack’s were filtering into the grand hall. After a quick meet and greet the council members would go to the office and discuss issues and plans for the future. Where was her daughter? She was in the back office pacing the floor. “If you break your finger I am going to be upset and if you dare chew off your bottom lip I am going to be very..very.. Sad.” Jace whispered into her ear coming up behind her and wrapping his arms around her waist as he pulled her into him. “Where is our daughter?” Nora sighed, closing her eyes and letting Jace’s present comfort her, even though her stomach was twisting inside of her. “She will be back. She might have her mother’s stubbornness and flight risk attitude but she holds her father’s responsibility in her.” Jace smirked. “Ohhh so all her bad behavior is my fault and nothing to do with
Chapter ThreePanic “Allies and friends, I am so pleased to see us all gather together. It has been twenty years. Twenty years of peace and working together. Cross River welcomes you all to eat, drink and be merry.” Jace’s lip curled up as he said the last sentence.“The council members will proceed into discussions as the rest of you all enjoy yourself.” Nora spoke after Jace with the same smile resting on her lips.Her eyes looked out over the crowd. Asher leaned down and placed a kiss on the top of Hannah’s head. Nora smiled bigger. She was so happy when the girl had stumbled onto Red Woods lands. She was a rogue hungry, frightened, and lost. She was now an incredible Luna and someone Nora cared for. Logan stood from the hunter's side, crows feet now living in the corner of his eyes. Even more so when he smiled. Zeke, now completely silver, moved through the crowd. Grayson was now Alpha of Black Sand. Chadwick never recovered from the damage Kip had caused him. He passed away in h
Chapter FourLock Down “Some one saw?” Knox asked as Ronan caught up to him. “No.” Ronan said with a shrug. He wasn’t sure why he was lying. He knew she had seen him. She locked eyes with him from across the field. There was something, something about her. He wouldn’t have even stopped what he was doing but he felt this pull. When he looked over he saw her ice blue eyes. She was miles away from him but he knew the color of her eyes. He chalked it up to his wolf zoning in on her. “You sure?” Knox asked again, looking at him confused. “There was some commotion. Someone may have found the body but I didn't care to stop.” Ronan said nonchalantly. “Do you care about anything?” Knox smirked as he nodded to the small group of men they had brought with them. “No, not really.” Ronan grinned, the men began moving out. “Good. It’s one of things I enjoy about you.” Knox laughed. “Glad to be of service.” Ronan said sarcastically as he began following behind the men. Knox took his p
Chapter FivePatrol“We’re waiting on orders.” Matt said tugging on Adam’s arm who was peering too deeply into the forest. “Yeah I know.” Adam said, his voice full of anger. “Chill out.” Matt said, shoving him lightly. Adam whipped around his eyes glowing, his body shaking; he wanted to fight something. Needed to get this anger out somehow. “Watch yourself.” Matt smirked, his eyes daring him as Ryker pushed forward. “Sorry.” Adam said quickly, he didn’t mean to take it out on Matt but he was so angry. Angry with himself for letting her get her. Angry that he snapped at her, angry at her for thinking so lowly of herself. He clenched his jaw, his teeth grinding against each other. “It’s not your fault.” Matt said quietly as he watched the rest of the patrol coming out of the forest. Adam just gruntted his response, his eyes fixed on the large gray wolf that was moving quicker than the rest of them. Adam felt his stomach sank slightly. A chocolate brown wolf flanked it’s side an
Chapter SixWaitingRonan watched them move through the tree line. He smirked, his hand twitching at his side. He recognized the young man leading them. He was the one in the clearing with the girl with long flowing jet black hair. His mind kept wandering back to her. The moment their eyes locked he felt something.“We should tell Alpha, they are getting awfully close. “ Clay sent through a mind link, his eyes studying the group of men.“No, it’s fine.” Ronan answered shortly, he suppressed his wolf's instinct to come forward.“If we are caught it wouldn't be fine.” Clay said sharply back.Ronan turned quickly grabbing Clay by the throat. Within seconds Clay was pinned to the ground. It happened so quickly and was almost soundless. Clay’s eyes widened as he realized he was on the ground. “Beta I am sorry…please.” Clay whispered his hand covering Ronan’s hand asking him to stop.“If I say it’s fine, it’s fine.” Ronan growled.“Yes Beta.” Clay whispered, nodding.“If you're worried, ta
