Chapter 7



LIAM
It was evening , Mom had mind linked me to stop by only for me to realise she had tricked me . ” Me alone with her ? ” I asked ,
looking at the little pumpkin . ” She’s a good girl , Liam .
” Mom said dismissively , Dad smirked , ” Yup , a real angel .
” He added , not sounding very convincing , ” We could do this tomorrow ? ” ! ” No baby , we are going ” Mom said firmly . They
were going to visit some lone wolves who lived near our pack territory , Considering the murder ,
Mom and Dad decided to check in on them , and here I was stuck with my little sister Azura – Aunty Indy’s girl that Mom carried .
” Wiyam , I be good . ” She blinked those large blue eyes as she assured me . No , that was an alarm bell right there .
No kid who says they will be good will be good and I had seen the devil , Dante . Kids were scary ... Don’t mess with them . ” So
, since you’re visiting a few elderly wolves ... you should be home by eleven ? ” I asked .
Mom smirked . ” Yes , hopefully . Relax Liam but I do think we will be back before eleven . It’s only six pm now . ” She said ,
glancing at the clock o n the wall . ” Anything I need to know ...
” No , just keep her away from the sugary stuff . There’s pizza in the oven . It should b e done in twenty minutes . Eat , get her
ready for bed , tell her a story , then she should knock off .
” Mom said , grabbing her jacket before meeting Azura with a hug and kisses . The fact that it had been just me and my twin ,
Kiara , growing up ; we didn’t have younger siblings , so seeing Mom like this was strange .
Not to mention , I wasn’t here for Azura’s entire three years of life . Was she really going to sleep ? Didn’t look like it ... ” Oh yeah
Liam , Raven was saying she wanted to move to the packhouse , get something sorted for her .
I was going to tell you earlier , but then with everything that happened last night , I wasn’t in the right headspace . ” Mom said ,
just when she was about to step outside .
” Sure . ” I said , emotionlessly . Raven at the packhouse ? Fuck , that’s where I was staying ... I couldn’t deal with this , not
when just looking at her made me want to go over to her and claim her as mine .
Once the door shut after Mom and Dad , I looked at the little girl who now had her finger shoved up her nose . ” Don’t do that .
It’s gross . ” I said , crouching down in front of her .

” Do what ? ” She said , taking her finger out of her nose and ... fuck ! She ate it ! ” Azura , pumpkin , you don’t eat that . ” ” Eat
what ? ” She asked . Did she not realise what she had just did ?
” Ok , let’s wash your hands ... ” She frowned as I tugged her to the kitchen . Goddess kids were gross . ” I washed my hands
after I went to the toilet , Wiyam . ” ” Yeah , but you were picking your bogeys .
” I said , lifting her onto the worktop . ” Oh , they’re tasty . ” She giggled . I cringed . Were we this disgusting as kids ? ” Alright ,
how about we get the pizza and watch a movie while you eat ?
” I suggested . Hopefully , she’ll fall asleep in the process . I took a tray out , grabbing what we needed before taking the pizza
out . ” Wiyam , can I have Coca – Cola ? ” She asked , as I took a can from the fridge for myself .
I’m sure Mom said no sugar ... ” Aren’t you too little ? ” ” No , I’m allowed half a can . ” She said , looking up at me with those
large eyes of hers . That’s true . We were werewolves .
I guess pups were more tolerant to caffeine how adults would be to alcohol and stuff . ” Ah . Ok . ” I shrugged , grabbing another
one and placing it on the tray before carrying it to the living room . Placing the food down , I put a slice on her plate and asked
what she wanted to watch on TV .
” I watch ... that ! ” She pointed at a show and I put it on for her . Sitting back , we began eating and my mind wandered to Raven
and what she had ‘ said earlier .
It was hard seeing her , yet all I wanted was t o see her all the fucking time . The urge to just pull her into my arms and tell her to
fucking accept me and me alone was so damn strong . But I didn’t really deserve that , not after how I shut her out for the last
three years .
‘ What are the autopsy results ? Anything yet ? ” I asked Zack through the link . ‘ Poison , but the traces are so light we barely
picked them up . ‘ ” Wiyam , coke ! ” I opened the can , putting a straw into it for her as I held it out to her distractedly . ‘ Of ?
What did it include ? ‘
” They still working on that , but there were traces of silver and wolfsbane mixed in too . ‘ ‘ Get pictures of the mutilation , exact
time of death , and whatever else you can before returning the body to the family ... ‘ So soon ?
‘ Zack sounded surprised . ‘ His parents wanted him back ... If we can’t get any more information from him , then it’s best we
accept their wishes .

There were a few scents around him , I’ll question those wolves tomorrow . ‘ HOYASH ‘ Ok Alpha . ‘ I closed the link to see
Azura sucking on the straw – like there was no tomorrow . Shit , how much did she have ?
I pulled the can out of her iron grip to see it was practically empty . Well , fuck . ” That was tasty . ” She said in awe , shivering
from the fizziness , before she gave me a big smile . ” I love coke . ” A sliver of doubt entered my mind , and I wondered was she
really allowed it ?
I got the answer to that ten minutes later ... ” I want to go out ! Let’s go for a walk , Wiyam ! ” She was hyper and acting like a
rabid dog right now .
” Wiyam ! ” She pulled at my sleeve before biting it and pulling my arm . ” Out ! ” ” Mom said bed , Azura . ” I said , about to pick
her up when she tensed and I could hear her pounding heart . Shit ,
she was going to cry ! 11 ” Ok fine , let’s go for a walk . ” Seriously , I hope this wore her out , I guess I couldn’t really complain .
What idiot gives a kid coke just because they said they are allowed it .. ? Me . That’s who . Two hours later ,
Azura still had not settled down . She was beyond upset , crying and asking for Mom . I did text Mom , who said they had a little
way to go , but thanks to an accident they were in the midst of a traffic jam , and they couldn’t really abandon the car .
At first , Azura had been happy and running around , but then she started getting upset , and now she was out of control . ” I
want Mama !
” She was now screaming in my arms . Damn kids were loud . ” Look Azura , how about we go back home ” MAMA !!! ” Fuck !
My ears were going to burst .
She was trying to escape my hold , hitting my shoulder as she cried . If Mom saw the state she was in , she was going to
castrate me . ” Need help ? ” Raven’s sexy voice came from behind me .
My heart skipped a fucking beat as I turned towards her . As much as I wanted to refuse her help , I couldn’t handle the pup in
my arms . I didn’t reply , watching her .
Her eyes weren’t on me but on Azura , giving her a gentle smile , although she was crying too much to even pay attention . With
Raven , she always had that smile on her face .
You wouldn’t think she had snapped at me in my office earlier by the look of her now , but it was one of the things I loved about
her most growing up .

She had been a lot smaller than Kiara , but she always held her hand , taking care of her , making sure she never stumbled or
hurt herself . Raven had always been tiny , but the size of her heart was fucking huge .
She always held such a positive and loving energy around herself that even when I sensed her sadness , it would be
accompanied by the biggest smile . She began walking over to us and I looked her over appreciatively .
She looked good i n an oversize off – shoulder knitted jumper dress , that draped off one shoulder , and she wore thigh – high
boots underneath . I couldn’t fucking speak , trying not to look at her thighs that were drawing my attention . ” Eyes up here ,
