Gasping loudly when I quickly sat up in an unfamiliar bed. Where the hell was I? The dream or should I say nightmare I just woke up from seemed too vivid not to be real. I rubbed my sweaty palms on the jean shorts I was wearing, while I took the time to slowly look around the bedroom trying to figure out what was going on. Last thing I remember was talking with +Lily Donovan right before my head felt as if it was going to explode and scatter my brains into a thousand pieces. I shoved the sheets aside before sliding out of the bed. I padded barefoot towards the door as quietly as possible. Of course, the wood creaked loudly the more I opened the door. Peeking out, all I could see was a small hallway. All was quiet, but I did scent the female prophet. I bet my life that she drugged my ass and had me brought here. What was her game anyway? With a loud huff I brushed my hands through my unruly hair before stomping out into the living room. Like always Lily looked so prim and proper in the latest designer clothes. She smiled up at me with that perfect innocent face of hers and greeted me with a cheerful good morning. Growling as I stood over her with my arms crossed over my chest What the hell doc? Where am I and why did you drug me? And before you say anything do not deny it, because I would have remembered being brought to..this.. waving a hand around this place!

* Nolan had flown us to Wasilla, Alaska, just outside of Talkeetna. I figured our best course of action was to check out Elijah Bennett's cabin where he and Gracie-Lynn Jericho had lived. He had worked for the Matanuska-Susitna Borough fire department, and I knew they would be looking for their missing crew member. I just wanted to start where all of this began. Donovan Wilson had chosen to pull innocents into our fight and I wasn't going to let it continue. I drove the truck in silence. Kristen Bauer hadn't spoken to me since we left Bellingham. Sebastian Monroe was a dick and I didn't care if he talked or not. He rode shotgun, scrolling on his phone. Gracie and Eli had lived next to a huge forest, but it was a bit off the beaten path, so I was surprised to see a truck parked in the driveway when I pulled up. Sebastian was immediately on alert. I could tell by the way his posture stiffened. Kristen even sat up at attention.

* Awareness came to me quickly. One minute there was nothing and the next minute, I was conscious. I looked around the room as I shifted on the cot. My palm settled over my rounded abdomen as I made sure my baby was safe. Strong movements relieved the fear that I had harbored. I pushed up off of the cot and looked down to see that I had been changed into white pants and a white shirt. It looked like a prison uniform. Even the shoes beside the bed were white and without laces. Who the hell had changed me and how had I been so unaware? I tried to piece together what I could remember, which was precious little. I stood up and made my way to the small sink, turning on the water. It blasted out of the faucet and soaked my pregnant belly. I adjusted it and splashed my face with the cool water. I used the towel hanging next to the sink and dabbed my face. There was a tray sitting on the floor and I knelt down to look at it. The jello was a mossy green and I poked it through the plastic, barely suppressing the gag that left my throat. The sandwich was dried out and the tea was watered down.

* I stood on the tarmac of the Bellingham packs airport at six-forty-five. Joel Kieschnick said to be ready to be wheels up by seven AM and I wanted this shit done and over with. I had shit to do. When I had called my boss at headquarters about this new development, he had been pretty pissed off. That was until he realized how close in proximity that put me with our target.

When I had called my boss at headquarters about this new development, he had been pretty pissed off. That was until he realized how close in proximity that put me with our target. "I don't like this. It gets fucking messy. I hate messy." He had growled into the phone. "Aww, come on. Messy is my middle name." "I know. Fucking bastard. I don't know why I put up with you. " "Because no one else is as good as me. That's why. Emotions get the better of people." "Just don't forget your place, Monroe." "I never could. Because you wouldn't let me." I lit a cigarette and watched the smoke plume out. I saw her then. She wore a tiny white tank top and tight hip hugging jeans. Those hips swayed in a sexy temptation as she wa...

I’d been at the clinic for about ten minutes when I heard loud footsteps coming down the hall. I stepped out into the hallway ready to greet my patient. I stood there as Slade walked up to me followed by two large males that I’ve never seen before. One of the males was carrying a female in his arms. Behind them was Mrs Blackstone with a worried look on her face. There were about six enforcers behind them, their faces grim as they all walked. I didn’t know what was going on but I didn’t like it. When Slade stopped in front of me I said. Evening, Slade! I’m sorry but your enforcers will have to wait outside. I heard growls coming from the enforcers but Slade turned around and growled back, making them all stop. “Go outside and guard the perimeter if you’re worried about an attack. Mrs Loretta and her family need quiet while the doc is checking over her granddaughter. Besides if either of these males wanted to attack us, we wouldn’t stand a fucking chance with their abilities. Now go!” There were more low growls as the males left but they did leave. I turned my attention to the female and said. Bring her in and lay her on the exam table. The male holding her stepped into the room and placed her gently on the exam table. He brushed her hair out of her face before bending and kissing her on the forehead. He moved to the side and that is when I saw that she was pregnant. What happened to her? I went to the sink and washed my hands. I put on some gloves and began to examine the female as I waited for someone to speak. Well, don’t everyone talk at once.

* I quickly pulled a search team together after Matthew's phone call and made my way to the Police Department quickly. I wasn't sure how Miss Blackstones niece might have gotten here, but we didn't need another missing person. Even though Jordan was living with Lily now, I still wasn't sleeping worth a shit and with as late as it was, I decided to just let Beck sleep and take care of this on my own, I would fill him in on it in the morning. Pulling up to the PD, 5 other vehicles followed me in and we huddled around Miss Blackstone. * "My granddaughter is missing. Her mate thinks she may have come here. My granddaughter is a powerful witch, but she is also panther shifter and demoness." * There were audible gasps and I glared at the males they came from. * "She is no threat to anyone here. I'm guessing she sensed how tired I was, got worried and then teleported because of how worried she was. She's pregnant and needs to be found." * I nodded and looked at the males. * You heard Miss Blackstone. She isn't a threat and she's pregnant. If you find her, make her fill safe until we can get Miss Blackstone to her, that will make her fill better. I'm sure she's a little scared right now. * The enforcers nodded paired up and jumped into their vehicles. I looked back to Miss Blackstone. * We'll find her. We'll follow you so you can open the veil. * She thanked me and we returned to our separate vehicles. We all followed Matthew and Lettie to the edge of town where what looked like a door had opened and allowed us to drive outside of the veil. I was surprised, but drove through and then used hand signals to tell the enforcers to break off and search different sections of our land. I followed Matthew until we hit our section and then we got out and walked on foot, looking for the female. *

* Pain consumed my body and mind as the Sasha tried to force me to succumb to her. She spoke to me sweetly, yet she was condescending, playing on my every fear. * "Nobody want's you." * Sasha paced back and forth in my mind sneering at me. My wolf stayed guard. * "Look at you, little miss goody two-shoes. Still a virgin and the only male you ever wanted, want's absolutely nothing to do with you. * I jerked when she spoke right next to my ear. My wolf snarled and swiped out at her with her claws, leaving a gash in her leg. Sasha cursed limping back. * "He's probably having hot, passionate sex with every female in the pack right now. Not even giving you a second thought." * I covered my eyes and shook my head. Tears flowed down my face like a waterfall. My wolf judged me, licking my face. * No... * I whimpered, my heart shattered even more if that was even possible. She was right, no one cared about me. I doubted they would even come for me and if they did, how could I trust them again. I heard the conversation, they just wanted my inheritance. They had no qualms about getting rid of me. Suddenly giving her what she wanted didn't seem so bad. ~ Kaiyo. ~ My wolf growled. ~ You can't give up on us. She's playing tricks on you, my bond with Reese's bear was true. They are the other half to our soul. And your sister would die to protect you. ~ I wanted to listen to my wolf, to have the strength she did. * "I'll give you retribution on them. Together we'll be so powerful. They couldn't stop us if they tried. You could get even with them, make them pay for plotting to kill you." * My wolf lunged at Sasha again, pushing her back. I was tired and her words were wearing on me. I was confused, hurt and scared. Revenge almost sounded...fun. I was about to give in to her and let her have what she wanted when a sweet voice from the far depths of my dark mind yelled out to me. * "Kaiyō, īe, kanojo wa iu koto o shinjiru koto wa dekimasen. Anata no kokoro no kodomo ni mimi o katamukete, anata o tadashī michi ni michibikimasu." ~ "Kaiyo, no. You can't believe a single thing she says. Listen to your heart child. It will take you down the right path." ~ I startled, hearing my mothers voice. * Momma? * The witch screamed in frustration as she tried to force me to succumb to her. Crying out in pain, I tried to stay strong and fight her beside my wolf, but I was exhausted and couldn't do it anymore, my conscious went blank. * "Damn it, she passed out on me!" * Sasha's voice faded away and I felt my wolf relax beside me. ~Sleep Kaiyo, our fight isn't over yet.~

* My family's home was now clean but empty. Rae told me to expect pack members to show up. When I asked her why, she smiled and said that the pack takes care of their own. I couldn't thank her enough and by the time she took me to the motel to gather my meager belongings and back, I had a bed, with new sheets and a comforter. A kitchen table and chairs, dishes, two fans and a couch, chair and coffee table. Rae helped me make the bed, for which she produced two pillows from her SUV, plus some clothes. I was on the verge of tears the entire time. When Jackson came in with a coffeemaker, coffee, cream and sugar, plus two bags of groceries, I burst into tears. Rae hugged me, let me jnow that she and her friends would be by with more, si I had to suck it up. Plus Slade found someone to fix the water heater.

I actually felt at home. Before Rae left she told me to stay put, that the Alpha needed everyone to be home so they could receive a crys...

I was exhausted by the time I got back to the cabin I could barely keep my head up. Matthew, the enforcer Beck had assigned to me, drove my Jeep to the cabin. “Stay here Mrs. Blackstone and I’ll check things out. If you give me the keys I’ll check the inside as well.” Please, call me Loretta or Lettie. He nodded as I handed him my keys, then he opened the door. “Okay, please wait here, Loretta and I’ll do a quick sweep of the area.” Do you have your crystals? “Yes, I’ve got them. And I made sure to take one home before you had to leave town.” I watched as he got out then locked me inside the vehicle, and made his way around the cabin. I closed my eyes and leaned my head against the door. I wanted to sleep so bad but I had more important things to do before I let sleep claim me. I must have drifted off because I jumped when Matthew tapped the window. “It’s all clear. Let’s get you inside, you look like you could use a good night's rest. I smirked and headed inside, pulling my phone from my bag. I went to the programmed numbers and hit the one I wanted. It didn’t take long for Thomas to answer.* “It’s about time you called. I can feel your energy is waning. Are you alright?” I put my head on the door jam and sighed. I’m fine, just a bit tired. I did too many spells in a short period of time. I need to sleep but I needed to call. I’m going to need the coven to get to McGregor, North Dakota as soon as you can. Call as soon as you get outside the town. I’ve put up a protection spell and you won’t be able to get inside. Make sure everyone has a white protection crystal with you. “We’ll be there soon. I had us follow your energy trail.” What? “We’re your coven. We belong with you.” Okay, just call when you are near. I hung up and headed for my room and had just taken off my shoes when my phone rang again. I looked at the phone and saw it was Wade. Picking it up I said. Wade! It's so good to hear from you, is everything alright? “Please tell me Ali is with you.” What? No! How could she be with me and you not know it? What's going on Wade? He explained what James had told him and that he had contacted Demitri. I was relieved to know Dominic was on his way but I was also nervous and a bit frightened. Ali was pregnant and missing. And it seemed she was tapping into her demon side. I told Wade I would go out and look for her and would call him back. He wasn’t happy about it and I knew he wanted to come here and search for himself. I hung up with Wade, put my shoes back on and went outside. Matthew stepped out of the woods. “What happened, why are you out here?” I just got a call from my grandson in law. My granddaughter is missing and she may be outskirts of town . She pregnant and I need to check. He nodded and we headed for my Jeep. “How did she get here? I was told your family and friends didn’t know where you were.” I looked over at him as he drove. My granddaughter is a very powerful witch, panther shifter and demoness. He looked at me, his eyes wide and I knew what he was thinking. No, she’s not the witch we are after. She was home with her bodyguards when she disappeared. And they called me to tell me she was missing. “Bodyguards?” Yes, along with a very pissed off vampire mate. She somehow tapped into the fact that I was tired out from casting so many spells. He looked at me again. “Well , if she’s here, we’ll find her.” He pulled out his phone as he drove and made a call. “Slade, sorry to bother you but we have a situation.” I tuned out the rest as my mind drifted off. I closed my eyes and tried to tap into Ali’s energy but I was too weak. I heard Matthew say something about town hall before he turned to me. “Slade is putting together a search team . If she’s out there we’ll find her.” Yes, we will! I’ll open up a small part of the spell, it will be like a door so you can pass through. We pull in front of the town hall and Matthew turned off the engine. It didn’t take long for Slade and the others to arrive. Slade walked up to me and I told him the same thing I had told Matthew. His eye brows rose as he looked down at me. “Well, let’s get this search started.” He gave the enforcers the information they needed. Everyone got back into their vehicles and we headed to the edge of town so I could open the shield I placed around the town and we were off to find my Ali.

It was the end of a long day. Oscar and I had stepped up the training to 10 hour days. The beginning of our day started with a 10 mile run. And just so the trainees understood who the fuck they were dealing with Oscar and I lead the pack. I needed a shower, food and down time with my mate. My phone rang as I locked up my office door and I dug it out of my pocket. Surprised to see James face. Swiping the screen I answered the call. * James what's up? * "Wade we have a situation." * A sick feeling came over me. * Is Ali alright? "I'm not sure." * I took off towards my pickup. * Talk to me, James. "We were in the kitchen preparing supper. She got fidgety, when I asked her what was wrong, she shrugged her shoulders and said she wasn't sure she just had an uneasy feeling." * I tossed my bag into the back up my pickup and jumped inside. * Is it the baby, do I need to call for help? * "No! She said everything with the baby was fine, but Lettie not so much. Then she disappeared." * I sat in my pickup dumbfounded. * What in the HELL do you mean she disappeared? "Well, I think she tapped into her demon side and teleported. She was worried about Lettie and by the way she acted she wasn't trying to teleport, it just happened." SHIT! * I sat for a moment thinking. * I gotta make a couple phone calls. Pack us all a bag and fuel up Ali's car. Be ready to move when I have a location. * Hanging up the phone, I dialed Demitri's number. * "Wade I'm surprised to be hearing from you is...." * I didn't give him time to finish what he was going to say. * Is Ali with you? "No, why? What's going on?" * I gave him the quick version of what happened. * "I'm guessing since she isn't with us she is with Lettie since that was what she was worried about. I'm going to send Dominic to you, he'll take you to her." * I thanked him and called Lettie as I drove home. * Wade! It's so good to hear from you, is everything alright?" * Lettie was cheerful but sounded tired. Maybe Ali was right about her feelings. * Please tell me Ali is with you. "What? No! How could she be with me and you not know it? What's going on Wade?"

I’d gotten the 6 crystals, making sure Bernice had marked off Tyler, and my family from her list. I told Slade I would be back once I had delivered they crystals to Chloe, Michael and Tyler. As I walked I watched as Ian grabbed his crystals then headed for his truck after a quick conversation with Slade. He nodded to me as I opened the door to my truck. “I’ll meet you back here in an hour.” I grinned as I looked around the town. Then we can do our rounds, maybe we will find out where Kaiyo is being held. He nodded as the grin left my face. Everyone was on alert but were told that if we happened to find out where the witch was holding the girl we weren’t to go in after her. I can still hear Beck’s voice as I headed for home. “Don’t go in if you happen to find them. Just get your asses back here and Mrs. Blackstone will do the rest.” I pulled onto my driveway and parked, looking around as I got out of my truck. When I closed the door I whistled low and waited for Tyler to come out of the woods. “What’s up, Vincent?” *I pulled out two crystals from my pocket and handed them to Tyler. Just wanted to give you these. You need to keep one on you at all times while you are not at home. The other is for your home. “I saw and felt the spell as it was cast. I’ve never seen anything like that.” It was something to see. We spoke for a few minutes then he got back to work and I headed into the house. Michael, +Chloe Cross, I’m home! “In the kitchen.” I walked in and they were sitting at the table, books and papers spread out in front of them. Chloe looked up, a smile on her face. “I didn’t know you would be home so early.” I’m only here for a few minutes. I’m here to give you your crystals.

* I got the crystals for myself, Jules and Jasper her guard. I had Bernice mark our names off of the list, thanked Mrs. Blackstone and let Slade and the others know I'd be back soon. I drove home, my anxiety over this whole situation growing but, I knew once I saw my Jules it would be alright. I parked and got out as Jasper made his oresence known. I thanked him for staying and told him I'd be leaving sgain soon to help with making sure everyone in town had their crystals. I gave Jasper his and let him know Bernice had him mark as recieving his. He thanked me and went back to his post as I headed inside. Closing the front door, I called iut to Jules. * Baby, I'm home! * She poked her head out of the kitchen, smilung wide.* There's my girl. What are you up to in there? * I picked her up and kissed her hard.* I have something for you.

* I grabbed 5 crystals from Miss Blackstone and asked Bernice to mark +Meghan Danvers, Rocky and myself off the list of those who have picked up crystals. Spotting +Vincent Gaines and Slade across the yard, I made my way over to them. * I have stones for Meg, Rocky and myself. I'm going to deliver the crystals to them, and then I'll be back to go door to door for those who didn't show. * Vincent nodded. * "I need to do the same." "Go take care of your families. I'll get the list once everyone has cleared out and start delivering crystals. Radio in when you're ready, I'll let you know where I am." * I slapped Slade on the shoulder. * How are things going with your mate? * Slade gave me a small smile. * "She is starting to warm up to me, but still has no recollection of our mating." Hang in there, man. She'll come around or.... you can make her fall in love with you all over again. * Slade smirked and I walked to my pickup.
