Heron

He wasn't going to make it quick. He was going to make it painful. He put more pressure at the she wolf's neck, she whimpered more. Voice were calling out for him to stop. But the wolf blocked them his focus was on the prey in front of him.

"Stop this, Lily wouldn't have want this." at the mention of his mate's name, the wolf stilled. The blonde haired girl, who he couldn't remember her name talked again. Damn he couldn't remember his own name. "Yes Lily wouldn't have want this. I know you want her and killing her would make Lily angry." The wolf's ears perked up in interest at his mate name. He could remember his mates name but not his own. The blonde haired girl pulled a cloth out of her back pack.

"See this is Lily's. You want this come get it." the wolf couldn't understand what she was saying expect his mate's name.

Once the scent of his mate hit him, he wiggled his tail and released his prey. Going for the thing that smelled like his mate. He snatched the cloth from her hand with his teeth. And sniffed it, while wagging his tail happily. Finally piece by piece Heron remembered and soon enough he took control again. He shifted back once he was fully in control.

"Thank you Freya." I said to her, she just took a deep breath and nodded. Probably to shocked to speak.

I turned to look at the she wolf who now had shifted. Her throat was worse than her clawed face, which now was healing, her throat too. I'm not going to apologize. She deserved it. Maybe, maybe not. The things she said were making sense and I can understand her now. She is in pain because she lost her best friend. But that doesn't mean she can pour her anger to who ever she wants.

Even though at this moment she was directing at the right person. She is right it's all my fault. If I tried to understand her maybe we wouldn't be here. I looked at the sky trying to blame it to it. But still deep down I knew this was all my fault. I shouldn't have gone after her. I should have let her live her life. Damn me for being a selfish bastard.

Lily

I woke up with a terrible headache and feeling uncomfortable. Damn. I don't remember drinking last night. Probably Liz made me do it. The light kept was on which made it more difficult for me to open my eyes. I blinked few times and finally I opened them. I looked around seeing that I'm not in my room. Where am I? Oh no. The memories from last night came crashing down. How could I have been so stupid. I need to get out of here.

'Yeah well good luck with that.' what does she mean? 'look where you are dummy.' I was sitting on a chair with my hands tied up behind my back. I could easily get them free but I'm sure the rope was shifter proof. Damn alpha Lawson for making them. He and his shifter proof things. Though they came in handy for the packs, but I have no idea how rouges got them.

"Rise and shine, sleeping beauty." said a man, who I had no idea he was there. He stepped away from the shadows and came in front of me.

He had brown hair and familiar chocolate brown eyes. He was tall and well built. Looks like someone is working out. Unlike me.

"Sleeping beauty?" I scoffed. "Come on, if you going to kidnap me at least be honest. I look like anything but a sleeping beauty."

He chuckled "Well you've got some balls acting like everything's fine. Tell me pretty Lily. Are you afraid?" hell yeah. But I wasn't going to let him know that.

"Can you please stop saying I'm pretty? I told you at least be honest." way to dodge the question Lily. Nice. His face had a knowing smirk. "By the way, were you the one who held me down last night, while the other freaks injected me?"

"Now, now Lily. I ask the question here and you answer." yeah sure. Keep dreaming buddy.

"You know what? Let's make a deal." I said and interest crossed his face.

"What do you suggest Lily." If he keeps saying my name, I'm going to hate it.

"A question for a question." I said. He shrugged like he couldn't care less. "Okay now answer the questions I asked."

"Nope that was not me."

"Then who was it?"

"You can ask that another time. Now it's my turn." he said. I honestly prepared myself for the worst. "What is Heron to you?"

If I said he is my mate, they would use me against him. I'm sure he knows that I am his mate, Heron had already introduced me to his pack. But still of he knew why did he ask. Maybe he is just testing me. "A man I love who won't love me back." well I wasn't totally lying.

"Now that's a lie." he said, coming closer. "You see I happen to know him really well and he always had a weak spot for you."

"For me? Looks like you don't really know him at all." I said trying to act cool.

"Now, now let's cut this short." he said. "I know you are his mate, so don't bother trying to tell me otherwise."

"Fine you got me. What do you want from me?"

"Now we are going to talk about that over dinner." dinner?

"How long was I out?"

"One day. Now I will go and someone will come and untie you. I expect you to behave." Why do I always wake up at dinner whenever there is something going on.

Heron

One day. She has been gone for one day but it feels like hell lot more. Who knows what they have done to her. God how could I have been so stupid. We should have been mated by now if you both didn't act like some stupid teenagers.

"I have an idea." barged Satan in my office.

"Not today, Satan." I muttered. But like always she didn't listen.

"You have to listen to me. I talked this with Dean and he agreed." she said but I pretended like I didn't hear and continued to look at the mails from the other alphas. Unfortunately we didn't get to have a meeting, so I emailed some of them. None of who I emailed had idea about the rouges.

"Look I know what happened that night wasn't good. The things I said weren't good. So hear me clear cause I'm only saying this once. I apologize. So please if you care even a little bit about Lily hear me out." wow never thought I'd see the day where Satan pushed her pride aside. I guess she really cares about Lily.

"Fine." I said and get gestured with my hand for her to go on.

"Okay." she took a deep breath. "So you know Alpha Milton."

"No I don't." I said with sarcasm. She rolled her eyes.

"I'm guessing you also how they call him." I nodded, they called him the Rouge Slayer. "If anyone can help us find Lily it's him. He isn't called Rouge Slayer for no reason. So since you are alpha you can make a few calls with him and he can come and help you." she smiled like a first grader solving a math problem.

"Oh my god Elizabeth you are a genius." she kept smiling. "Like I haven't thought abut that." I scoffed.

"Then what's the problem?" she asked.

"The problem is that: No alpha does something without wanting something in return. And alpha's Milton standards happen to be high." Damn it. Getting her back is so hard.

"What if I told you, I may have something he may want." she said.

"Care to tell me what it is?" I said.

"Me." she said confidently. I laughed, I fucking laughed. She glared at me.

"No offense but I don't think, he will help us just because you offered him sex." Lily said that this girl was crazy but I didn't think this much.

"You orangutan," she yelled furious. "I'm not offering him that. I'm not stupid. I'm offering to train his pack."

"What makes you think that he'll accept that?" she really is delusional.

"Why won't he. I'm from the Hollow pack. The best warriors are trained there, my dad being the trainer trained me too." Well that explains how she could break James nose. "And I have a family who are big gossip people. If there is any news they are the first to know. Anyway alpha Milton wanted my dad to train his pack. My dad refused. So if anyone can train his pack like my dad is me." Now she is making sense.

"Won't your dad be furious when he learns what his daughter has kinda betrayed him?" I mean he refused for a reason didn't he.

"It's better having my dad not talk to me than not finding Li." I smiled. She really cares about her.

"Then let's get down to business." I said smirking.
