Ate POV:


    I was sure at some point Max would turn us over to Deacon, I jumped anytime I heard sudden noises


    or a door open. He told me he sent a message to Grayson but kept it vague so if it was intercepted it


    wouldn’t give me away. He let me read it so I could be sure there was nothing hidden in it giving me


    away.


    I almost shook over his shoulder when Grayson responded after a minute or two. I thought of him of


    our son in his arms. I warned myself this could all still go very wrong, Deacon could figure out where I


    was and stille after me. He had angered his son probably the only person in the world capable of


    killing him and bringing him off his throne. He wanted the upper hand, I had taken that from him and my


    life was on thin ice.


    His sister was very kind and always seemed to be by me, when I first arrived she led me to a bathroom


    with her mother by her side. “I have some clothes you can borrow,” She wasn’t much older than fifteen,


    but she looked like her brother’s brown hair and eyes tan and freckled, her mother a Greek wolf smiled


    at me and guided me to a steaming


    tub.


    “No one will betray your trust in my house,” She stated, holding her hand. I took off the ck dress


    from the hotel still on my it was much easier to get rid of than my nightgown. I handed it over to the


    young girl and looked at it the fury in my eyes.


    “Burn that,” Her mother ordered as if reading my mind. She helped me into the tub I knew I looked


    skinny but I hadn’t seen my reflection in weeks, my skin clung to my bones, and my cheeks were gone.


    The effects of the silver acetate were potent stripping all my strength and my lifeblood from me.


    I got in the water and i thought I’d die right there baths hadn’t always felt this good had they? Had they


    always felt like standing in the sun on a warm day? I sat down and the older woman and her daughter


    set to brushing out my hair, it wasn’t matted, but it wasn’t good I could see some of it falling out as they


    brushed.


    They gave me a bowl of soup for dinner that night with warm bread and I ate it heartily and savagely,


    not bing of a luna. I went to sleep begrudgingly watching the door to my room and looking back at


    the windows until the sun came out and my eyes betrayed me gluing themselves shut and I slept.


    I eventually woke up and when I did I sprung out of the bed and opened the doors making sure that no


    one had been called that I was still safe, and that I could call for my husband. True to their words they


    called him and Grayson seeing through the lines came right away.


    I had paced around their house gripping my hands together half in prayer, half in anticipation. I walked


    outside of their keep and started looking at the sky.


    “They won’t be here for hours Ate Simon told me but Ashley elbowed him in the ribs.


    “They’ll be here soon let’s wait on the steps,” the small girl came up and sat beside me. I sat there


    fighting the urge to run my mind warring against itself, so happy, so afraid.


    “It could be deacon he could still have tricked you, Grayson is at home with our son safe that should be


    enough for us.


    I sat there forcing myself to believe that my husband was truly on his way and that they hadn’t betrayed


    me, after ages


    my heart thumping in my chest my palms sweating I heard the des of a helicopter. I jumped onto my


    feet my heart pounding I ran over to where the helicopter pad was.


    *Grayson


    “Grayson


    Please tell me he brought him, please tell me this is it, if this is it everything else will be fine, the


    hardest part was being separated if we’re together nothing bad can happen ever again, please just


    open the doors, pleasend and open the doors and have my husbande and hold me let me hold


    my son, my baby, my baby boy please.


    I didn’t notice that Max and his family had joined us I didn’t see my parents beside him all I saw was my


    baby, my son, in my husband’s arms. His was so much bigger than when Ist saw him he had his


    father features ck hair on his head thick, his eyes pray.


    I let out a gut–wrenching sob and 1 lunged forward grabbing him from his father and holding him to my


    chest he didn’t even cry. I copsed to the ground sobbing. He was so big, how had he grown so much


    in thest few months? I had missed everything i sobbed holding him, my child.


    Grayson knelt holding us. “It’s alright darling, shhhh” He held my his ice, his pine encacting me


    again.


    “Anna” My mother sniffled and pulled me from my husband holding me in her arms I pushed off of her


    and smiled as be held my face I still had Christian in my arms. I looked down at him and stared up at


    me as if in awe.


    shuffled back to my husband’s arms my mother smiling at me tears streaming down her face but her


    joy faltered as I found sanctuary with my mate. I looked up at him. “I want to be alone.” I told him.


    “Olzy,” He helped me stand up and Max mentioned for us to follow him back to their house. I kept


    under Graysons arm and held my son smelling the top of his head and looking away from anyone else.

    We were ushered into the room I was staying in. I set Christian down on the bed and Grayson set the


    bag down beside him our boy. I turned to him and just like I needed like I wanted him to my husband


    kissed me deeply, softly but with all the desire six months apart brings.


    “Do not ever leave my side again,” he whispered to me.


    “Never.” I whispered back.


    “I love you”


    “I love you.”


    We said it at the same time the way couples who had been together for years did. As if no time had


    been spent apart.


    Weid down on the bed Christian/between us as I traced his face with my fingers his cheeks so soft


    his smile so joyful. I told him what had happened, he told me what I had missed. I apologized for my


    mother, he told me there was no reason to. I told him how Deacon was in charge now, he told me how


    he had almost killed Marcus. While watched our son Grayson watched me.


    “Did be.” Grayson couldn’t bring himself to ask the question but I knew what he meant.


    “No,” I shook my head and looked him in the eyes so he knew I was telling the truth.


    I exined Marcus’s total psychosis and how he truly believed I would fall for him over time. Grayson


    clenched his hands the way he always did when he got angered.


    “Only someone that crazy would involve my father,” Grayson sighed the weight of all these monsters so


    heavily on his shoulders. I ran my fingers through his hair and kissed him and he reached across


    putting a hand on my back derpening our kiss.


    We pulled apart and I continued my observation of my baby.


    *if this is a dream I hope I never wake up


    Sadly we left our cocoon and exited the room Christian fell asleep and Grayson helped me put him on


    my chest. We left and Mother again rushed to embrace me.


    “Don’t wake him, mama,” I warned her.


    “Are you alright, you’re so skinny, did they not even feed you, where did they keep you, how did you


    escape, do you want some food,” She spluttered her many questions more tears in her eyes..


    “I’m alright it’s a-”


    “A side effect of the silver acetate I concocted to keep Ate subdued so she couldn’t reach her wolf,


    or Grayson,” Simon stood back and prewinced.


    I didn’t even realize James was there before he came out of thin air and sucker–punched Simon.


    “That’s enough,” Grayson ordered, and to my shock, James listened. Grayson had definitely seen


    James move, he knew that Simon had helped me escape, I turned over my shoulder at my husband


    who watched Simon like a hawk. Christian woke up and started crying due to all themotion and I


    red at my brother.


    “I do deserve that though,” Simon had a bloody mouth and a tooth lying on the ground. He stood up


    and brushed himself off. “I helped Anna escape but I let my hubris and thirst for knowledge cloud my


    morality and it came at a great cost to you all and if you’ll let me I’ll spend the rest of my life making up


    for it,”


    I tried not tough as the extremely awkward, stiff, and ufortable Simon knelt in front of my


    husband. “Alpha,”


    Grayson left him there for a moment stewing in his anxiety I looked over at him pursed my lips and hit


    him in the chest. “You’ll start by figuring out a way to restore my wife’s health,”


    Simon stood and I turned to my husband. “He has a young sister Marcus would have killed her if hadn’t


    given me the acetate she’s with us, they’ll need a house,”


    “At the edge of thends,” My father growled I sighed at their stubbornness.


    “More than I deserve,” Simon bowed his head and left to pack up his things. I hugged my father and my


    brother, I’m sure I looked awful and it probably hurt them to see me like this. I felt so guilty putting them


    all through this.


    We said our goodbye and Grayson thanked Max, we promised if he ever needed it we would return the


    favor. We got into the helicopter and I grabbed my husband’s hand as we took off. We were going


    home. I looked down at my son in
