Erick's POVI leave Kate to feed baby Belle. I do not even want to look at her. She infuriates me. She took my child and ran. All she had to do was come to me, and we together as a family, as a pack, could have sorted this out. Now she has my hands tied. I cannot let the pack think this is acceptable behavior from anyone, not even the Luna of the pack. No one can cross the Alpha.Do I believe Alexander? Would Kate hurt baby Belle? I have no idea what to believe anymore. Kate is changing in front of me. She looks and acts differently, she is not my Kate. I have no idea who she is anymore. She is transforming into something else. I do not know how to handle any of this.I have an infant that has taken her wolf form. It is too soon. She is too young to handle the emotions of turning into a wolf. What if baby Belle hurts someone? How will I help an infant handle being a wolf. This should not happen yet. No wolf should transform this young. She could turn and attack without knowing what sh

Erick POVI try to occupy myself in my office while Cassie takes on the task of taking a meal to Kate. John and Trip left to try to find an Imperial wolf here that might can help us. At least someone that knows about the ghostly figure following my wife and child. There has to be someone here from the Imperial pack that knows what the hell is going on with Kate.My wife, Kate, is still my wife, and I still love her. She no longer cares anything for this pack or me, and that is what frightens me the most. What if she turns that hate to baby Belle? What if she harms her while that damn wolf is controlling her? There are too many questions and absolutely no answers to anything going on here. I have no one to turn to and no one that can help her.I struggle to focus when I hear Cassie screaming and crying in the kitchen. I hope Kate did not hurt her. I get up from my desk and open the office door. I go into the kitchen and stand in the doorway. Cassie is sobbing while looking out the kitc

Erick POVAfter Cassie comes out of surgery and I know she is okay, I go back to the house. The drive back to Kate is hard. I want to help her, but I do not know how to help my wife and this new form she has taken. How do I turn my back on the woman I love? How do I help her return to herself? I have to get rid of that damn white wolf, but how?I pull into the driveway. The older man and old woman are waiting for me outside. The two are sitting on the porch just as I instructed them. At least someone follows instructions around her. I get out of the truck. I am still covered in Cassie's blood as I walk up to talk to the two about the white wolf and how to help Kate."Alpha, how is the girl?" the old man asks me."I am sorry you had to wait so long. Thank you for staying. Cassie is okay. She should make a complete recovery. Thank you for asking," I say to the old man.He looks at his wife then back to me. "We knew this was serious. I am glad she will be okay. No one ever survives an at

Alexander POVI know she needs me. I rush to the house, passing Desire as I get close to the house. Desire stops me as I sprint past her. This is not going to go well."ALEXANDER!" Desire screams at me. I come to a stop and wait for her on the road. Desire rushes toward me. She is angry."YOU CREATED A MONSTER!" Desire screams at me. Desire is upset and crying as she rushes toward me.I put my hand out to stop her. "I did not want no such of a thing. I only gave her the tools to extend her power. She became the monster when her child was taken from her. Do not blame me. Put the blame where it belongs, on Erick," I say.Desire rushes toward me. I move quickly so she cannot strike me. "Remember it was I that taught you, Desire. You will not harm me. You cannot harm me," I say to her calmy."That daughter of yours almost killed the woman I love, Alexander. I will kill you and your daughter," Desire yells at me. Desire moves closer to me.Desire stands in front of me. All of the anger she

Alpha Erick POVIsabella and I drive to Cassie's house. This is crazy, all of this is crazy. I am beginning to loathe the imperial wolf pack and all of their ridiculous ways. I drive as fast as I can to get to baby Belle. Isabelle seems ready for anything. I want the imperials gone from here. They need to relocate and go somewhere else.I look over at her. She is not the same. Becoming a vampire has not been easy on her. I thought vampires were young and strong, but Isabella is old and weak. "I have to ask one thing," I say to her."You want to know where I went when I left, I already know what you are going to ask. I understand you wanting to know. You need to know that my intentions are pure and that I am really here to help," Isabella responds."Yes, you said you wanted to die. So where did you go for death? You obviously did not find death. You came back to help Kate. It is important for me to know where you went. Where did you go?" I ask her.Isabella takes a deep breath. "I star
