Diego: I walked to my room, my anger getting the best of me as I tried to think straight. The fact that Renata slept with another man was one thing that I couldn’t find myself accepting. I didn’t even know who the man was, and the idea of him being here within the pack was something that raged me. I pinched the bridge of my nose, and I sat on the edge of my bed, knowing that I was going to need to think straight. I needed to manage to calm myself to be able to run things right now. I needed to focus on the things that I wanted to take care of. The pack was going to need my attention, and I wasn’t going to be able to do so if I was going to be thinking of what Renata did. The topic was going to die down, and I knew that Renata was going to try to take advantage of things. However, this was too much for me to handle and take at one point. My bedroom door was knocked twice, and I looked up as I caught Lea’s scent. I frowned in confusion and got up from bed, opening the door for her

Diego: “So, madre wants you to enter my bed,” I said, looking at Lea whose eyes avoided mine. The two of us were walking around the pack grounds, and though we were outside the Estate, I knew that for her safety, for now, we needed to stay within the pack. I still didn’t have control over Zenith and I didn’t know what Ryker would be trying to do if he managed to find her outside. I didn’t even know how she was going to be able to go to work without the risk of her getting killed, but I knew that I was going to be dealing with this somehow. “You caught onto that.” She stated, avoiding my eyes. I smirked, and she looked away from me. “I am used to her wanting to do so, but I never did expect her to be as open about it.” I said, and she looked down at her feet. I knew that one part of her was going to want that to happen. As my mate, it was going to be something that she and her wolf would want, but it wasn’t something that I wanted her to have hopes for. I didn’t want this right

Diego:“What do you mean that she is not in the pack grounds?” I asked, frowning at Giovanni as I heard and processed what he told me. I had just come back from my run, having calmed down, only to find myself hearing of the one thing that angered me more than the idea of mom thinking of sending her to my bed. “The woman came back to the pack a while after the two of us spoke, and we literally never left the pack grounds to begin with. It was barely the Estate!”I glared at the man for a second, and he shook his head, looking as confused as I was. The idea of her just leaving the pack as causally as she did bothered me, especially when I didn’t understand how the fuck she would manage to do so without being seen. “The security team didn’t see her leaving, but I am certain that she isn’t here. Neither one of us has seen her since early afternoon.” He said, and I frowned, pinching the bridge of my nose. I had to fight back letting out a low growl as I knew to control the anger that I fe

Diego:“The last that she was seen was running away from Ryker’s men,” Giovanni said, and I chuckled, shaking my head. This was the last thing that I needed right now.If Ryker’s men found her, then word has reached Cosimo about her being missing, and fucking hell are we going to have to deal with the one mess that we didn’t want to deal with.My phone rang, taking me off guard, and I couldn’t help but frown before pulling it out of my pocket, expecting it to be my father who was calling. However, I was surprised when I found that it was an unknown number.I answered, not saying a word, as I waited for whoever it was to tell me what they were on about. And whoever was on the other line chose to be just as quiet, clearly testing my patience right now. “I think that you lost yourself a mate,” the man said, Vieri’s voice, made my heart drop. This was the last thing that I needed to be dealing with right now. And considering the fact that he knew that she was my mate, I knew that things

Cosimo: I took off the cloak as I walked inside the Estate, smirking at the experience that I just had. I looked at my wrist for a second, taking a deep breath as I knew that I was going to have to get that checked. However, at least I knew that she had both the bracelet and crest. And though I couldn’t see the crest, I knew that it only worked when it was with the bracelet. “You are hurt,” my gamma, Lidia said, approaching me. She looked down at my hand and I smirked, knowing that she didn’t just come to ‘check on me’. She rarely ever did. “And yet, you seem to be satisfied.” “I am.” I said, and she raised an amused eyebrow. “With the wound that you have?” She asked, shaking her head at me. I extended my hand toward her, and she smiled. “I can assume that you found what you wanted.” “Indeed, and she is better than I thought that she would be. My son does not know of her capabilities yet, but I can assume that he will find out soon enough. Now the question would lie on whether
