“Obviously.
“She won’t be alone. We send her into the forest, while the pack picks the Lycans off.” “No. I am not sending her anywhere alone!” We were going around in fucking circles, my patience is barely hanging on by a thread. Why couldn’t he get it into his head that this was not an option? “Then I’m out of ideas, Dane because you didn’t like the first plan either. Thesebastards won’t be easy to take dgwa: We don’t know what. kind of naibe s they have. We have no idearow many they have turned. Fo atte know, there could be thousands making their way towards us as we speak.””He rubs his temples. “Scould be as young as that kid at Eric’s house. Because they can shift at what…thirteen?” He pulls faces as he shifts in the bed.
“You are right.” I mutter. “We don’t know how many they have coming and look at you. One big fucker took you down.” He bares his teeth at me. “I was protecting your mate.” “Evidently!” I snort. “she was the one who killed it.” The colour drains from his face. “Raven said it was you and Klaus.
I shake my head at him. “Not only has Neah accepted being an Alpha, she fully shifted. Killing it the way she killed that other prick. The only thing I did was burn the body.” “She went for the heart again, didn’t she?” “There’s no coming back from a pierced heart.” I muse. Twice now and the only thing she went for each twas-the heart. Throats are_> what most Wolves go for. It was almest like it was ingrained inher what to do. 6 I rise from my seat. “If they manage to get their hands on her, she won’t survive.” “Don’t they want her for an heir?”
“It’s different now. She’s exactly wha she is supposed to be and if they find 1 someone to bind her again. She won’t survive. Every road points to her death, Aero and I refuse to let that happen.”
He looksdead in the eye, “So put a fucking pup in her!” “We have had this conversation.” + muttetifelessly. It just didn’t seem to be getting through to him I have told you tand tagain. Your brother is stupid.’ Aero shakes his head “No.” Jenson pushes himself up a little more. Screwing his nose up. “You are not following what I’m saying. They only have to believe she is carrying your heir. And so does everyone else.” “You want to win this war by lying?” “I’m just saying, allis fair in war. It’s not like it’s the worst thing we would have ever done.” His dark eyes flash around the room as though searching for someone who might be listening.
“Play them at their own game. Isn’t it what they have-always done? I mean, they.8 avade her believe that she was one of us. We can callin every sirigle pack that you havea ne loyal contract with. Because the Lycans won’t just be targeting her, they will be targeting your_pup. “He pops the final p before adding, “She doesn’t have to be anywhere near the fight. They just need to believe it.” Ashburn >
“And if they attack in the next few hours?” My eyes flicker up to the clock on the wall He follows my gaze to the clock. “They would be stupid to attack now knowing that you have done exactly what I said. If they know anything, they won’t attack when there is a chance that everyone is fully rested.
“I need to speak to her first.” I mutter. Neah isn’t the greatest of liars. If I could see through it, then something tellsTrey or Cassandra will to.
‘I’m telling you. If you want to keep her safe and away from whatever is going to happen, then this is the way.” He watchesget to my feet. “If you see my twin, can you send her in? I roll my eyes. “She won’t let you out until she knows you are healed.” “A Wolf has got to try.” Raven and Neah are sitting on the small bench outside, deep in conversation about something. They beth fall silent as I approach. “He wants to see you.” I mutter to Raven ‘I’ve already told him no. I know him, he will go straight back out there.” She shakes her head and storms inside, ready to lay down the law with Jenson.
Neah is quiet. slowly picking at the wooden bench and avoiding my eyes. “You are doing it again.” I murmur, sitting where Raven had sat. “Raven told me.” “Did she now? She certainly has a habit of doing that.” I frown, she hadn’t been inside when Jenson and I had spoken of the plan. “What exactly did she say?” ‘I would be in the forest…..
jo.” I cut her off before she has a chance to finish and pull her in against me. “Not a chance. But there is another idea of Jenson’s that I need to see if you are okay with.” She tilts her head to one side, the moon reflects off of her blue eyes, remindingof a tmy father took the three of us to a crystal clear lake That was the last tI saw my father and my step mother.
“Not here.” I had no idea how she was going to react and I didn’t need or want the attention. She won’t agree to it.’ Aero mumbles. I have to try.’ We head back to the house, barely stopping to speak to those around us.
She sits infer usual spotinthe office, putting her legs up to her ~ chest. Her messy dark hair falls around her face and she quickly tucks it back behind her eais.
Her eyes grow wider and wider as ~ she listens toexplain Jenson’s” idea. AS I finish talking, she blinks a few i times and looks atasif I’m crazy, “You…..you want to put your pup in me? I thought….1 thought we were going to wait a year? “That was the contract you wanted. I personally think we are long past that.” I cock a brow in amusement, but she doesn’t see it that way.
She snorts and blinks a few more times, only for the blue to steadily get darker. She was talking to Nyx or Nyx was at the surface.
‘I can’t.” She mutters, keeping her gaze low. “I’nfnot ready for that. I’m twenty twosThe only places I have. ever peed are here, Moonshine and the cit hich I only went to onse. Still cart read properly and I – defini etly can’t write. What Kind of a raother would that make me?!” She shakes her head, “I’m Sorry. I can’t” “In that case, you will need to lie.” I keep my focus on her, trying to read her
“Huh? I can’t lie about something like that.” Her eyes meet mine deep sdown the line with an sdow.
When I don’t reply. She leans back, tilting her head over the backrest, eyes fixating on the ceiling. “He N thinks it’s the only other way?” “Yes.
Other packs who owewill join the cause.” “Because they will think I’m carrying your heir.” I ned.
“I can’t make a decision like that, Alph…..Dane.” Told you.’ Aero muses. He loved it when he was right.
“Look at me.” I order. Her face slowly turns to mine. “This way, you live.” mine,
Neah He’s saying that we are going to die.’ Nyx murmurs. I couldn’t tell if she was angry or amused. Either way, she sounds….content.
“I may be lacking in certain areas, but I know exactly what he means!’ I snap at her She sighs, ‘We will have pups eventually. He is our mate. We are bonded to him. We might as well.’ Her words don’t reassureas I make my way back to the bedroom. In fact they just makemore anxious. ‘Exactly.’ I snap, ‘Eventually!’ Then lie! I’m rubbish at lying!” Nyx falls inte silence. She had quickly learned when to back off, knowing that her words were falling on deaf ears. It was easier to think when I couldn’t hear voices. Easier to get caught up in my own words as I try to figure things out.
I laugh to myself as I drop on the bed, still fully dressed. If it wasn’t for Dane, I would have thought the voice would be a sign oflosing my marbles.
