Laura's point of view: None of us uttered a word... It was as if time had stopped. All I glimpsed at were his heavenly ocean eyes. Although I was quiet, my emotions were on the verge, and I'm sure he felt the same. For the first time in my life, I wanted something/someone that badly. For the first time, I didn't care who made the first move, and I wasn't waiting to claim what was mine. I took his hand gently in mine, then led him back inside our room. The situation was quite tense as the mere touch created jolts of electricity racing through our bodies. As soon as we reached the inside of the room, I pressed my lips to his, engaging in my most passionate kiss. For a while, I thought I was the one in control, but not until his tongue invaded my mouth. The taste of his tongue awakened the beast inside me, a thirsty beast that desired nothing but pure satisfaction. Our limbs tangled as we fought to get as close as possible to each other's perfect bodies. I couldn't control my hand

Damien's point of view: I ran my hands through my head, realizing what I had done. My wolf was the one in control, and once again, I messed up. But this time, I'm not the one to blame. It's Allan. The way he looked at my mate wasn't what hurt me the most; it was the way she gazed back at him. Her tiny hand was in mine, so I squeezed it hard. But she didn't seem to feel anything. She was staring deeply into his eyes as if her life depended on him. The only thing that snapped her back to reality was my father's shout. It seemed he was annoyed by the little drama created by my mother and Selene. My heart was stabbed a hundred times as I remembered how both Selene and my brother played me. But it wasn't Selene who was on my mind; it was Laura. The way she moaned and screamed for more made my beast take control. The thing is, I warned her to stay away from him, yet she didn't listen. I used to fully trust her, but now I'm not so sure. However, I still don't trust my brother. What I hate

Damien's point of view: It's already been three days since she was taken. All the investigations led us back to New Orleans, which made me believe it was something related to her original pack - The Blood Moon Pack. Tonight, Alan and I are attacking The Blood Moon Pack without any reinforcements from the palace. Of course, the two of us can handle that entire pack on our own. I'm still not rescuing my mate's life, especially while knowing the pack of rogues that is formed mainly by ruthless alphas. Normally, I would rush to save my mate without thinking or making any plans. The thing is, I'm not alone this time. Noah is on my side for this one. He enlightened me about a matter I never noticed, which is how predictable I am. He was able to describe what was on my mind, from how I'm attacking The Blood Moon Pack to the part where I'll be trapped. Part of our investigation involved a witch's service. A witch who seems to be on good terms with Alan. She was quite surprised by the st

Alan's point of view: A Witch Out of all the existing creatures, my mate is a witch. I cannot believe it or accept it. Yeah... Yeah! I know I've been on good terms with witches, and I've asked for favors from them from time to time. The thing is, I know for sure that those people can't be trusted. Witches normally trigger their power based on their feelings - happiness, sadness, and most importantly, anger. Add to that the fact that they're an arrogant type of species who believe they're meant to be nature's favorite children. Every witch believes it's their mission to keep the world well balanced, which only ends up creating more desire. Yes, indeed! While trying to maintain order, they only create disorder, and it's been proven. I mean, in order to keep human beings safe from werewolves, they decided to create an equal enemy that would put wolves at bay. The thing is, they were successful in creating that enemy. What they didn't take into consideration was that this creature

Laura's point of view: I can't sleep, and it's driving me crazy! How do you expect me to sleep or feel at ease knowing that my mate challenged his brother? Yes, he did! I can't understand him at all. I mean, he thinks what he wants is more precious than family. Although I'm trying my best to stick by his side, I don't think I could ever do that in my life. Well, fighting him wasn't on my list, not my intention. The thing is, I cannot agree with him anymore. Why would I ever agree that he kills his brother for a title? I mean, I'd rather do whatever it takes just to have my family around me, sticking by my side. Instead of being grateful for what he still has, he is challenging his brother in a fight that will only end if one of them is dead. I tried hard to stop him, to convince him that they can settle their differences. Yet, he refused. His wolf always takes control and takes the conversation to a different level, accusing me of having feelings for Alan. What the hell is wro
