Hayley’s POV
I couldn’t lie, we did sleep together we just didn’t have sex. Years of attending lessons in the land of Fae had taught me how to twist the truth, finding a way of lying within the truth with careful word selection. So technically when TJ asked if we slept together I didn’t lie.
The potion I had created hadn’t worked. It was supposed to make Erik forget about her and fall in love with me, instead it somehow put him in a deep sleep which did not make sense considering a powerful potion maker had helped me to create it.
With Erik in a deep sleep I managed to drag him to my room and removed his clothing and dump him into my bed. I stripped off my own clothes and joined him, trying to pull his arm around me but he kept turning over away from me. Instead I wrapped my arm around him and nestled into his back, maybe he would respond.
He didn’t, he slept all night, snoring deeply. I was frustrated the potion hadn&r
Alpha Erik’s POVI kept my distance, watching her from afar, she had taken the hair bobble out and was letting her bright hair flow, the sea wind catching it and blowing it about. She sat hugging her knees, she must know I was close, I could feel her pain and it was something she was unable to hide from me.As bad as it is that I slept with Hayley, I still could not get what that witch had said out of my head, TJ had an affair with Noah, my once best friend. I was not even sorry I had ripped his heart out. I knew my mate was hiding some of her memories from me. It had taken something drastic to happen for her to come clean about the prophecy, being able to hear her wolf, Hayley.TJ still did not move, the tide was coming in and the waves were catching her every time now, skimming around her body. I am sure I just saw her lips move, who is she talking too. It was now or never, I had to ask her about Noah. Will was still in the car and playing on his phone,
TJ’s POVTwo weeks I had been here and I was happy although my wolf was not, well not truly happy but i felt calmer than i had done in weeks. Falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the sea everyday was like music to my ears. Erik would come most days and always kept his distance, some days he would wait until I had walked down the beach and would drop off groceries for me.I focussed on training every single day, I needed to make myself strong and thankfully my body naturally remembered how to move. I continued to block mind links, keeping anyone who contacted me at bay, I was not ready to talk to them and I honestly enjoyed my own company, sometimes my mother would come to talk to me, mostly to tell me off that I was making a mistake not being with Erik.As I entered into the third week of being alone, something was different, my wolf was agitated but she didn’t know why but it was puting me on edge, she was constantly pacing in my mind which
TJ’s POV“Humans” I repeated the word back to the well dressed man.He nodded his head, rolling his black cane across his legs, “They have also taken my great granddaughter, it is why I am here”Erik had started pacing the room “Humans were eradicated years ago before my birth”The Fae nodded “We thought so too, until Luna TJ went missing”Erik stopped pacing and walked towards the Fae sat on the sofa “How do you know this?” he growled in the Fae’s face, the Fae did not move in the slightest.“I believe my great granddaughter filled you in”Things began making sense, Hayley had told me about how her and her great grandfather had found me in a cave, her great grandfather was the ruler of Faery.“Aslo?” I ask cautiously, I had to be certain it was himA wide grin played on his face “Yes Luna TJ” before I could ask an
Will’s POVI was so grateful to Alpha Erik for giving me some time off to spend with my wife Lacey and our new pup Blade, I may be bias but he was gorgeous and now heir to the Beta line. Lacey could not put him down and I don’t blame her as we never thought this day would come. We had been trying to fall pregnant for three years before she finally fell pregnant with Blade, we had also been told it was unlikely we would ever conceive, Lacey had had too many wounds to her lower abdomen.I was eager to show Blade off to Luna TJ, but Erik had said not yet. Luna TJ had also not spoken to me since she had been at their beach house. I understood why, she needed space and I accepted that.Walking towards the pack house I was surprised to see Erik’s car parked outside, he had said earlier he was going to see TJ and it was strange that he was back already. Things had obviously not gone well. I prepared myself for the conversation that was coming, in a wa
Alpha Erik’s POV TJ was finally happy to be with me and did not complain once when I carried her off to the bedroom, shortly before getting a chance in showing her how much I loved her, we were interrupted by my Beta Will, I thought it would have something to do with contacting the other packs, yet the voice that came through was distraught followed with a baby crying. “Please Alpha, its Lacey…… she’s gone” I reluctantly got dressed followed by TJ who was puzzled why we were getting dressed again “What’s happened?” she asks over and over whilst pulling one of my blue hoodies on. I could not answer, I did not have all the information yet. “Stay here” she folded her arms across her chest, sticking out her bottom lip in a little pout. I couldn’t help but laugh, TJ had never pulled this face before. “Fine, but you might not like it” she cocked her head to one side trying to make sense of what I said and followed me out the door. We walked
Unknown POV I was furious, we had been training for this for years and some imbecile manages to let her escape. It had been so easy to capture Luna TJ, stupid terms they use Alpha and Luna but that was the way their kind worked. I pace across the dark wooden floor in my office that was lit up by many lamps, we had been living underground now for decades, long before I was born, hiding and making sure we were never seen. Our numbers were increasing, new babies being born everyday and our time was coming, we would resurface and take back our world. I continued to pace when a faint knock raps on the door “Enter” who was disturbing me now, Jack appears in the doorway with a worried look. A bead of sweat trickled down the side of his face, his ash blonde hair soaked with sweat, a red blush covered his face. He had been running. Jack was my inside man, he had been a part of the pack before Alpha Erik took over although Jack was not a wolf. Jack was
TJ’s POVHow can Erik expect me to become a mother, there are so many reasons why I said no and they were just reasons since waking up in the hospital, let alone any reasons from my past.Erik sighed and ran his hands through his blonde hair causing it too be more messy than normal which made me smile and he crouched in front of where I was sitting and cupped my face. Gently running his thumb across my bottom lip and pulling it out from where I was biting it, he glances at Blade who is now asleep.“You will be an amazing mother” he murmurs quietly.I shake my head pulling from his hand and turn my head as a tear threatens to escape as much as I did not want to be a mother, Erik clearly wanted to be a father and I was taking that away from him.Standing up, I look at a sleeping Blade once more “My life is too chaotic” and I walk out the room as soon as I leave a single tear escapes and Blake starts crying again. Looking
Beta Will’s POVI just couldn’t face looking at Blade, he was the spitting image of Lacey and every time I looked at him the pain that was a constant ache in my heart, throbbed. I was mad with Alpha Erik, I couldn’t believe he ordered me to stay in the house, my wife, the mother of our child was missing, taken far away and he really expected me to stay put.My wolf was in agony and I had stormed off to the room Luna TJ had so kindly set up for me. I had punched the wall several times causing cracks, I know it would piss off the Alpha but right now I didn’t care.I waited until I could hear no noise in the house and quietly crept out the room and down the hallway, I passed Alpha Erik who was sleeping on the sofa with Blade fast asleep on his chest, TJ nowhere to be seen and I silently slipped out of the house.Through the darkness I made my way back to my house, the house I share with my beautiful wife, there must be more clues than
