Chapter 78
12 New Clues
Evelyn POV
“Luna, I don’t know what you expect me to say. I was with you when the pups were taken to the nursery. I was given the report just as you were that neither pup had survived.” “So who examined the pups if it wasn’t you?” “Dr. Martin was in the nursery when the pups were brought in.” My heart sinks knowing that I can’t speak to Dr. Martin as she was killed during an attack on the pack not long after I gave birth.” I see sympathy on his face but I don’t want his sympathy. “I want the records of my pups’ birth.” “Luna” he starts to say again and my eyes flash black as Sadie pushes to the surface. “I do not need your sympathy or to be patronized. All I want to know is what happened to my pups and don’t tell me they died because you weren’t there to confirm that’s true.” He sighs and reaches for a pen off his desk. I watch as he writes something on a piece of paper. He comes around and hands it to me. I look at him with confusion once I read the address he has written down.
“Patricia’s mate left the pack after she was killed. This is his address in the human city.” “Why would he choose to become a rogue? He would need the pack even more after losing his mate.” “Those are questions you will have to ask him, Luna. Honestly, I don’t know the truth about what happened that day, but I do hope you find it, Luna.” He stops talking and I watch his eyes shift as he gets a link. A few seconds later he looks back at me with a mix of fear and sadness. “He’s coming isn’t he”, I ask and he nods. “Did you tell him why I came to see you?” “No Luna, I simply said you were feeling fatigued and wanted to be checked out.” All the contempt I had for this man when I arrived is washed away and replaced with appreciation. “Thank you, I’m truly grateful for your help.” “Of course, Luna. Now we need to get you to an exam room before he arrives.” He leads me down the hall to an exam room and gives me a gown to put on. The doctor rushes from the room and I wait to come face to face with a man that I can no longer trust. I scent him before the door flies open. He growls before he comes to stand in front of me.
just wanted to get checked out and not have my mate worry for no reason.” He steps closer, pulling me to his chest and wrapping his arms around me. Even Sadie growls low, but I stay quiet. After a few minutes, he pulls back and looks into my eyes. I give him my best smile. “I’m fine, I promise.” “Please just tell me next time so I don’t lose my mind. You are my world Evelyn, you know that. I would do anything for you.” “I promise, I will tell you next time.” “I think he would do anything for himself, not us”, Sadie says and I know
Carter POV
understand your hostility, Carter.” “No, you did business with the snake that used to run this collective. Now I’ll ask again why are you here?” “I believe that a prisoner of mine has escaped and maybe hiding in your territory. As an act of goodwill, I would like him returned to me.” A growl escapes me and I cross my arms over my chest. “Franklin, you and I both know that will not be happening. I would suggest you and yours return to

Cayden POV
are strong. They will handle them, Cayden” Abigale says, I’m sure she is reading my expression. I smile and nod but I can’t help the nagging feeling of dread in my gut. “What color is your wolf” Sarah asks, bringing me out of my thoughts. “He is silver and his name is Riggs.” “Can I see him” she asks, but Abigale speaks before I can. “Eat your dinner and then we can talk about you meeting Cayden’s wolf. She pouts a little but starts to eat. A few minutes pass and the feeling of dread gets stronger. A growl sounds and I hear my name
without you and if we have to kill every wolf that gets in our way, we will.” The thought of that innocent pup flashes through my mind. She reminds me of Clara when we were children. I will not go back to that hell, but I also won’t let them hurt these wolves. “Riggs help me use my powers.” “All I can tell
