I watched from the window. Hearing a crash I hastily got to my feet and followed the sound to the window. Moving the blind to one side I see them. Two on their knees and two fighting. Knox manages to break free out of the others hold and stands above him.

My heart races. A sudden rush of fear and concern startles me as I watch the scene unfold. Then as he pants outside of the barn and meets my gaze something else emerges to the surface. An emotion so strong I want to run and leap into his arms and never let him go. A warm feeling in my stomach. One that makes me growl low in my throat, and a pulse throb in my panties.

His blue eyes search my face. As though he was looking at something that was too bright. Like the sun.

Rubbing his hands over his face he turns and walks away into the distance. Turning the corner breaking my view. Disappointment makes me pout. Then realising what I was doing I shake my head, cry out in pain and decide to go for a walk. Maybe some fresh air would calm my hormones....because being surrounded by Knox's sent wasn't helping at all!

Stumbling out of the trailer I inhale deeply. Trying to clear my senses of his intoxicating scent. Peering around I smile. Watching the kids and other pack members go about their business. Farming, trading, cleaning and playing peacefully. Suddenly, a smell catches my attention and I head in the direction of a smell of something delicious. Ham? Beef, maybe?

My stomach growls, I couldn't remember the last time I ate. The thought of something meaty and juicy makes me whine.

Slowly, I walk up the porch to the door and like a child starving and begging for sweets, hammer on the door desperately.

Swaying a little as a beautiful blonde woman answers the door. She frowns at me, raising a brow in distaste.

"What do you want?" She snaps.

"I...I could smell food...and I didn't know...could I join you?" I stutter. Clutching my stomach as it growls loudly. My body shaking violently from my beating.

"I ain't feeding no riff raff that my brother drags home to fuck." She scrunches her pretty face up. Her eyes roaming over my bruised and shaking body. "You ain't family and you ain't fucking welcome."

Nodding in understanding I turn. Then, hearing a small voice, I turn.

"Mama, Uncle Knox wouldn't be happy if we didn't help his friend..." a little girl appears from behind her mother. Holding a little stuffed teddy bear. Her blonde curls frame her pretty face and you could tell they were related. Looking closer I notice they both have the same dark blonde hair and blue eyes as Knox.

"Vi, go set another place for dinner please." The woman said. With a sigh, she cleared her throat and smiled. Her demeanour and aura completely changed. I blink a little taken back but, never the less, I stay polite.

"Thank you..."

"Sissy." She moves aside and let's by in. Seeing the little girl sitting at the table I join her and sit where she points beside her. I smile as I sit. Praying I don't scare her with my bloody appearance.

"I'm Violet" she states then, as Sissy places bowls of soup in front of us, she begins to eat. Smiling thankfully at Sissy I pick up my spoon and begin to eat.

We ate in silence for the first few minutes. Sissy looking at me curiously every couple of seconds, until she decided to speak up.

"So, why's my brother drag you here?"

Looking up from my soup I shrug. Then regret it as I moan and tense in pain.

"You poor thing. They'll be dealt with I'm sure." Sissy says. "Bastards like that don't deserve to talk to a woman."

I manage a small smile. Returning to my soup. "All I know is that Knox decided to drag me here. What for?" I sigh. "Only he knows."

Sissy snorts. "I think I have a good fucking idea too!"
