"I see you're finally awake."

"Why would you do this?"

"I have my reasons."

"Are you working alone?"

"No, I've got a few allies."

"Rogues?"

"Yes."

"Typical." I mutter. Rogues are always involved in some way or another. "It was you who sent those guys to beat me up, wasn't it?"

"Ah, well done human."

"I don't get it. You've got some thing against Elliot so why target me?"

"Its simple really." He smirks and circles around me. I roll my eyes when he doesn't continue.

"Elaborate, please?"

"An Alpha gets really attached to his mate. He wants to protect her from anything and everything. He focuses on her health and safety over his. When she dies, he gets weak. But what happens when his mate and baby dies?"

"What? A baby he doesn't even want? He wouldn't care." I snapped. It still bugged me how he didn't care nor want the baby..

"You're lying."

"I'm not. Go on, go and ask him yourself whether he wants the baby or not. Go see for yourself. Then you'll realise how pointless it is to do whatever you're going to do to me."

"Oh, my dear, even if he doesn't want the baby it still isn't pointless. I can still kill you."

"What do you even want to achieve?"

"He left me with nothing. He killed my mate when I'd first met her. He knew she was my mate but no, because she was a rogue he went ahead and killed her. I wasn't myself for months until I decided I had to get my revenge on him. I knew it would be a lengthy process since he hadn't found his mate for maybe six years.. But it was like you were a miracle. There you were, his mate."

"So what? You plan on killing me then having the satisfaction of taking away his mate because he took yours?"

"Not just the satisfaction, but his title."

"You want to become Alpha? I'm sure it would be handed down to Tyler though."

"And that's why I'm killing him too. He just sat and watched Elliot kill my mate. He knew too except he just watched. No one cared about me. They didn't give two shits about me!"

"I did.. Not now though. I can't believe you.."

"Believe it, human. I just have to wait for Elliot to realise you're gone, come looking for you and bam, kill you in front of him like he did to me."

"Why didn't you try saving her?"

"I was being held back by two strong warriors."

"Why didn't you shift?"

"They were in their wolf form holding me back. Would've been pointless."

"You could've tried! You shouldn't have given up." Then he slapped me.

"Don't tell me what I could have done and don't raise your voice at me! Or the baby goes, now." I immediately kept my mouth shut. Even though it may have been hopeless right now, I didn't want the baby to die right now.

I had faith that Elliot would save me before I was killed. I knew he would because he loves me and wouldn't let anything happen to me... or even the baby. I hope.

"I knew you were a jerk with our first encounter. What changed?" I questioned. I needed answers and while he was telling me them, I took the chance to just gain some information. Might as well, eh?

"Ah yes. You were human and I don't like them. Goddess, they're so annoying-"

"Right here."

"Shut it." He glared at me whilst I kept my mouth shut. "I realised what I'd done and how I needed to befriend you. It'd seem less suspicious I guess you could say."

"Why did you help me out though? Those times Elliot and I had arguments you were there to fix them."

"Ah, part of my plan. You see, killing you would be less effective if you were arguing with each other. I needed to make sure you guys were happy together and in love. It'd only make this plan more perfect."

"Why did Tyler come for me then, and not you?"

"Oh, that was pure luck. I needed you back too so my plan could proceed. But obviously Tyler was doing it for the pack and his best friend. I was going to make a trip to see you, to bring you back and make up with him. But thanks to Tyler, I didn't have to. Quite lucky. You came back, you spoke, you obviously did more than speaking." He said, pointing to my stomach. "Everything was falling into place."

"Why did you wait though?"

"I waited because I could smell your scent changing. I don't know how Elliot didn't since he's around you 24/7 but I noticed it. I realised, things couldn't any more perfect could they? Big, bad Alpha losing his mate and his pup. Brilliant. Luck must be on my side."

"Elliot will kill you before you kill me."

"I wouldn't be so sure of that, Emily. Now, I've got to go infirm the big, bad Alpha that his mate has been kidnapped! See you soon, human."

"Wait!" He was already out the door. Damn he moves fast.

I sigh and try getting out of these ropes that I was tied with. It wasn't much use, they were tied pretty good. If only I was a werewolf.

Elliot Johnson.

"Alpha, Alpha!"

"What is it, Aidan?" I growled out.

"The Luna, she's been kidnapped!"

"WHAT?!"

"I've got a lead on her though."

"You do?"

"Yes."

All warriors report to the pack house, we've got to find Emily. I spoke through the mind link. Hopefully they'd all be here.

"Come on, you're helping me."

"So," he began, "Emily's pregnant, huh?"

"How do you know?"

"I'm surprised you never noticed her scent changing.. I went with her to the pack doctor."

"Oh."

"You excited then?"

"No."

"No? Why not?"

"Because I don't want a kid. I told her to get rid of it."

"Y-you did?"

"Yes. Why?"

"No reason." I then heard him curse under his breath. Weird boy. He's always been weird.. Sometimes I question why I made him TIC.

"Her scent leads that way." Aidan explains. "I caught onto it but it was mixed with a rogue's scent."

"Alright, warriors.. Follow that scent. Tyler, you're with me. Aidan, stay here and look after the pack."

"Sure thing, Alpha."

Don't worry Emily, I'm coming for you.
