~Brady~

This can’t be happening.

This morning she was mine.

Her smile. Her laugh. Her kiss. All mine.

When Lindsey sees Jagger again, what will she do?

“Why is he coming here, Dad?” I ask, regretting the answer.

“Well he’s here to make an alliance. He’s had a rough go lately. Some rogues killed his mate recently, and he needs to mourn away from her family. I figure he might have another reason for choosing our pack first though.” Dad says, looking down. “Just promise me you won’t get

    ~Brady~Jagger comes to dinner before Lindsey. A part of me is nervous; weren’t they supposed to be together? I search the room for Logan but can’t find him either. My brain is fighting itself: one side coming up with excuses for her and one side thinking the worst. That’s when I smell her: vanilla and lavender. I turn towards the door and see her eyes heavy with exhaustion. They brighten when she meets my eyes. She walks over to me and wraps her arms around me, laying her head on my chest. “Hey.”“Hey. You ok? You look tired.” I can’t help but sound concerned. “If it’s too much, I can-“She gently kisses my lips. “I’m fine. Can we talk after dinner?” I nod in approval. My parents come in shortly after and start dinner service. Lindsey sits with Deanna and Callie, planning Callie’s upcoming mating ceremony. I notice Willow is not with them. “She’s with Hunter. Apparently she’s not spending as much time with them anymore.” Logan interrupts my thoughts. “Who?” I ask, though I alrea

    ~Lindsey~ “Hmmm. What about this one? She hails from Dark Paw. That’s where Luna Maci and her sister Darla were from.” I point to a lively looking she wolf. Kiera Mavis: age 19, blue eyes, red hair, likes hunting. “I don’t know. She looks a little crazy.” Jagger focuses on her face, a worrisome look on his brow. “This feels insane. Like I’m going back to the olden days with mail order brides.” He collapses in a chair and buries his face in his hands. I want to walk over and encourage him, but I’ve been told no physical contact. Nothing that can be taken the wrong way. I sigh, hugging myself instead. “I know. It’s hard, but you and your pack need a luna. Remember, we’re just weeding out the candidates that you aren’t interested in.” “Make that all of them.” He mutters, looking down at the plethora of applications in front of him. So many she wolves wanting to be a luna. “Oh don’t be like that.” I sit beside him but keep a safe distance away. “Let’s keep looking. Give me your

    ~Brady~ One normal week would be nice. Instead, I’m dragging my mate and her friend to the packhouse because she’s needed in “finding Jagger a mate”. Allegedly. I can hardly believe that there’s no one more qualified than Lindsey to help him. Colton, in jest, suggested it, but now Hunter is using it as an opportunity to bring the two of them together. He’s convinced Jagger somehow that it will help him overcome his feelings for Lindsey. Sadly, allies are known to do this. My mother is old enough to be these girls’ mother, and no neighboring packs have young lunas. Lindsey is my claimed, and probably fated, mate. Thus she has the title of rising luna, making her the most eligible option. I explain the logistics of this to Lindsey and Callie as we drive. I notice Callie getting visibly uncomfortable. “I don’t like this. It seems like a set up.” Callie looks at me in the rear view mirror. That just confirms that my gut instincts are right. “Jagger would never hurt me or cros

    ~Lindsey~“That’s a wrap. Good job today everyone!” I crash onto the floor, gasping for air. “Holy shit my legs feel like they’re on fire.” I pant. “Yeah I have no clue how I’m going to get up. How did everyone from morning training survive?” Callie dramatically sprawls herself onto the floor like a starfish beside me. “Oh come on you two. It wasn’t that bad.” Callie and I both shoot Deanna looks of annoyance. Curse her for being in such good shape. “Ok it was rough, but that just means we’re better prepared! I hear shifters are getting a double dose today. We’re practicing in human form this afternoon.” She tilts her head as Callie lets out a groan. “You’re probably sore from other reasons, too. Huh Callie?” I nudge her playfully. “Oh my gosh. Shut up Lindsey. You’re so embarrassing.” She sits up and covers her face in shame. “Girl you smell exactly like Trey. There’s no denying it. You sleep over or something?” Deanna winks. “No. He’s finishing up some changes on our home.

    ~Brady~Nauseous is an understatement. I thought we were past this. I believed we were past this. But now? Seeing Lindsey and Jagger embrace so intimately has me feeling sick in more ways than one. I’ve got a million questions flooding my brain though my chaos remains hidden behind a mask of steel. Does she still love him? Does she want him?Did his confession change how she felt?Does she still want me?“Oh shut up. We should’ve kicked his ass out of our pack weeks ago!” Knight growls in the back of my mind. Colton stands beside me and mind links me. “Dude I feel your frustration, but you know Lindsey. You gotta trust her. Those two idiots are her childhood friends.”“One of whom she conveniently fucked?” I link back. “Yes but forget that for a second. You know she’s got a huge heart. They’re preying on her sympathy. You’re covered in blood and scratches. Play the same card after John takes over.”Despite myself, my eyebrow cocks. He may look dull, but Colton has recently becom

    ~Lindsey~ Dad and I finally got to go home after weeks of living in the packhouse. The peacefulness of living in a house that you have to yourself instead of the hustle and bustle of the packhouse is refreshing. I got approval to miss dinner tonight so that Dad and I could have some time alone. I’m stirring the alfredo sauce so that it stays smooth while making sure the pasta doesn’t boil over. Dad is out back grilling the chicken. We sit down to eat which feels bizarre after having so many public meals. Something about this feels private, personal. Like it’s a moment that was crafted just for us. We chat about our day, all the craziness that has happened recently, and the spring pack party that I helped plan. I’m really enjoying feeling like things are going to normal when I see the blood drain from Dad’s face. “What’s wrong?” I reach out and touch Dad’s hand, concerned. I’m sure he’s just gotten a mind link. “I need you to come with me quickly. But you need to be prepared. It

    ~Brady~ Today has been rough. Morning practice went fine, but my mind is so heavy from everything that’s been going on. I hop in my shower and try to relax. Grant and I made amends, but I know he’s still upset with me. I get that she’s family, but I’m surprised he’s so protective of Lindsey

    ~ Brady ~ A part of me is so pissed I can’t think straight. And I think that’s why I’m aroused. How dare she accuse me of being a bad alpha! I work my ass off for this pack already. I’m devoted to my people. Hell I’d give my life to protect any of them. More importantly, why does it hurt so ba

    ~Lindsey~ After science class, Deanna and I head to the cafe to meet Callie and Willow. We talk about how horrible that class was as we walk down the hallway when Grant comes up and puts an arm around both of us. “Whaddya say you lovely ladies join us in the courtyard for lunch? It’s surprisin

    ~Brady~The day passes quickly. Before I know it, I’m headed to science to see Lindsey again. She insists that I don’t need to walk her everywhere since she’s gotten the layout now. I still find a way to mess with her between classes. That kiss this morning was just what I needed. It’s like my hea
