    A cloud of smoke greeted me when I walked through the front door just before noon.


    “Hello?” I called out, coughing as I inhaled the smoke.


    “In here,” Aspen called out from the kitchen. I entered to find him trying to put out a burned grilled


    cheese sandwich.


    “What on earth?” I eximed, trying to get it under control. Once it was out, I opened a few windows to


    air out the kitchen.

    “Sorry, I left it too long.” Aspen shrugged shyly.


    “It’s okay, I’ll make it. Where’s Channing?” I asked as I dumped the contents of the pan into the trash.


    “In his room. He has some work to finish up.” He answered as he sat down on a stool by the counter.


    “I’m sorry about the mess, Ryley. I’ve never cooked one before,” Aspen confessed. I had lived the life


    Aspen has, so I know I wouldn’t have been able to cook one at the age of seventeen either.


    “It’s okay. Let’s cook them together so next time you will know how to.” I told him, with a smile. I never


    had to cook in my old life but I discovered a love for it after I left.


    Aspen and I had just finished toasting the third sandwich when Channing came into the kitchen.

    “Why do I smell burnt cheese?” He asked, sitting at the counter.


    “There was a little ident but we have some not burnt ones,” Aspen smiled as he held up the te


    stacked with sandwiches.


    “You two eat and I’ll cook up some more for you both,” I told them before getting a few more ready to


    be toasted.


    “Are you excited to y tonight?” I asked Channing, who just stuffed half a grilled cheese into his


    mouth. All he could do was nod. I chuckled, shaking my head.


    After they had four each and the kitchen was cleaned up, I set up myptop on the dining room table. I


    needed to get some work done before going with Channing to his practice. I also needed to get out of


    the pack house and away from ke. The boys were in the living room, wasting some time before their


    afternoon training ss and I was pouring myself a coffee, before sitting down to work.


    I dropped my mug and let out a scream when the front door was kicked in. I could see the door from


    where I was standing, and I gasped when the one person I never wanted to see again came through


    the door.


    “Ryley?” Aspen yelled out.


    “Run,” I screamed. I heard as they rushed to the back of the house and


    out the back door.


    My heart was pounding as Dorian approached me. I backed away, making sure the kitchen ind was


    between us. He let out a chuckle as he stalked me, like the predator he was.


    “I thought you were dead,” he spat out.


    “No thanks to you,” I retorted, my voice sounding stronger than I felt. Lily let out a warning growl as he


    tried to move around the ind to

    “Do you honestly think you could take on an alpha, Evelyn? “he mocked and Lily growled louder. Mate

    He moved quickly around the kitchen, grabbing my hand, he crushed me against his chest, trapping me


    against the counter.


    “F*ck, you smell so good.” He breathed out against my neck. I fought against his grip but I couldn’t


    move.


    “You always were a feisty one. It made chasing you more fun,” He grinned, looking down at me. I felt


    sick with his skin touching mine, with his scent on me.


    “Get the f*ck away from me,” I growled out. He leaned in closer, his nose touching mine.


    “Or what?” He taunted. I fought harder but it just seemed to amuse him.


    “If you think anyone in this pack gives a f*ck about a rogue, you’ll be disappointed,” he chuckled.


    “What the f*ck do you want, Dorian?” I growled. I gasped when he rolled his hips, I could feel how hard


    he was and the thought made me sick.


    “Don’t be like that, Evie.” He mumbled, nipping my neck. Tears


    pr**ked my eyes, as I tried to move but he had a firm grip on my wrists and his body had mine pinned.


    “Lily, help,” I pleaded.


    Dorian pinned my hands behind me, with one of his before he ripped

    “Still f**ken s*xy,” he purred, taking in the sight of my bare chest. Lily took that moment to shift: Her


    ck coat covered my body. She had a white undercoat giving her the appearance of being two-toned.


    Dorian stumbled back as Lily’srge frame filled the space. He looked surprised at first but then a smirk


    appeared.


    “We can do this the hard way.” He shifted into arge ck wolf. Lily snarled and snapped, trying to get


    an opening. His wolf backed up, not wanting to fight his mate. He must have known when he watched


    me fall off the cliff and into the water.


    Regardless, Lily pounced and they rolled, taking out the front window. When Lily’s body hit the wooden


    railing on the porch she let out a yip. Pain filled our side as she quickly got to her feet. She quickly


    looked at her side and pulled out arge splitter. Chaos was happening around us, but Lily never took


    her eyes off her prey.


    Dorian quickly shifted back when a massive ck wolf and white wolf,nded in front of me, protecting


    me. I could smell it was Channing and Aspen but they shouldn’t have been able to shift yet. The pain in


    my side became too much and I was forced to shift back.


    I heard ke’s voice but I didn’t hear what he said, my attention never leaving my former mate.


    “Always making things difficult, Evelyn,” he growled.


    “F*ck you,” I yelled. I let out a gasp when Channing shifted,


    confronting his father. I tried to stop him but I winced in pain, not able to get up quick enough.


    “Stay the f*ck away from my mother.
