Lucy Lexi watches my every move carefully. She waits for me to say something or maybe not. All I need to do is say the wrong thing and she will be excited to achieve her goal. Making me doubt Kayden’s love for me. “ Like I said, they are lies.” I stand firm and I don't falter. My heart is burning because there could be some truth to what she is saying, but I don't want her to see the distress on my face. “ Besides, why would I believe someone whose soul purpose in this pack is to throw me out?” She won't easily fool me. We can both play these games. “ It's honestly up to you. Yes, I don't like you, but I was just trying to look out for you as woman to woman. Besides, I wouldn't want that to happen even to my worst enemy.” She says calmly while she watches my every expression like a hawk. I won't let her get to me. “ Thanks for the advice. You can leave now.” I demand. She lets out a short laugh. She looks at me with disbelief. “ I am glad you have heard. Kayden isn't what you

KaydenFor some reason, my heart feels heavy. It's a feeling that's so unfamiliar yet familiar at the same time. My heart is getting heavier and heavier. I sigh as I don't understand where this feeling is coming nor can I begin to comprehend it. Why couldn't I sleep? Why am I out here in the moonlight gazing at nothing in particular while my mind can't seem to focus? It's buzzing around and going crazy screaming at me yet the words don't make any sense to me. It's like a foreign language. I sigh once more as I pace around the cool breeze brushing against my skin does nothing to ease this feeling if anything it's even getting worse. I begin to notice that Jax is on edge too. He paces in my mind but can't seem to focus too. He is trying to reach out to someone but who. ‘What is wrong Jax?’ I ask. My chest heaves up and down in an unsteady rhythm. Something is really wrong but what?The border is quiet there seems to be no sign of a rouge attack at all. “ What the fuck is wrong with

LucyThere is commotion inside the pack house and it has caused so much noise most pack members just want to see what is going. It's the kind of noise or gossip that even if you knew how to mind your own business you would still get swayed and rocked into this boat. Kayden lets out a deep powerful growl. Pack members move away instantly. He is like a ticking bomb and any time it's going to explode. He sets me down gently even though his whole body is shaking. I put my hand on his back to calm him down. ‘ This is my fight, let me take care of this.’ I tell him. If I don't Lexi will always pick on me. ‘ No it was never your fight to begin with. I am the one who brought Lexi in my life and I should be the one to solve this. I don't care. I thought being close to her would have let me know what kind of poison they used on my mate as she seems to have a lot of information but I was wrong so wrong.’ He reasons. Kayden sets his hard gaze on Lexi and she squirms under the intensity of the

“ Are you sure about this? Cause once I mark you, you are mine forever.” He asks his breath fanning my neck.‘ I am sure, mark me, Kayden Grey, I am ready to be yours forever.’ I reply softly. He growls the sound only making me go into overdrive. He suddenly stands up and steps out of the bathtub. I look at him questioningly. He simply shrugs and doesn't say anything else. He scoops me out of the water carrying me into his strong muscular arms. He effortlessly walks back to the bedroom. He makes it seem like I weigh nothing. He chuckles which lets me know he heard my thoughts. I scowl at him and then roll my eyes. “ You really don't weigh anything.” He says with a sly smirk on his sexy lips. I huff, and he gently lays me on the bed. I sit up and look at him expectantly. We are both still very much naked. “ If I have to do this I have to do it right. It wouldn't have been safe for me to mark you in the bathtub.” He explains finally. Which is very much reasonable. He snakes near

Lucy Tell me where you are? I text back. I don't know why I felt compelled to ask that question and I more than anything want to see her answer. Hidden in the underground tunnel built at my old pack. I gotta go, some is coming. Just like that I can't text her anymore and if I text her I might put her in danger. But why the sudden change Lexi has always hated me but now she texts me like we have always been friends. “ So tell what that witch has said?” Megan demands immediately. I hand over my phone and she reads the texts. “ This bitch is the biggest lair, there are no tunnels at Darkmist.” “ But what if they are there but hidden?” She shakes her head dismissing the issue. “ Trust me there is nothing down there. I know Darkmist like the back of my hand there is nothing.” “ Which park was Lexi from originally? Has she always been a Darkmist member?” I choose to change my line of questioning. “ All I know is that she was part of Darkmist if there is any other pack then I woul
