Ash's POV

They've been gone all night and they weren't here this morning when I woke up. I know I told him to take her out, but I didn't mean bloody stay out! Where the hell has he taken her?

I'm in the middle of pacing in the living room when I hear the back door open and two sets of hushed laughter.

They stop dead upon entering the living room. Riley has a pleading look in her eyes, asking me not to go ape shit. She should know it's already too late for that.

"Where the fuck have you been?!" I use my Alpha voice to let them both know I'm not in the mood for lies and excuses.

"We uh,-NoahtookmetothisForestRoomthingandiwastiredandifellasleepandhecouldntwakemeupandionlywokeupalittlewhileago." She blurts in one breath. It's always amazed me how she dose that.

"Say that again but slower." I know exactly what she said, I just need to listen to her heart beat to see if she's lying.

"Noah took me to this Forest Room thing and i was tired and i fell asleep and he couldn't wake me up and i only woke up a little while ago." She vomits out again.

Her heart is surprisingly steady with only a little jump at the mention of Noah and the Forest Room, but that's to be expected, Noah is her mate after all.

She looks at me with worry and a hint of guilt. Why?

'Why What?' I hear her voice in a quiet echo.

"Did you just-?" I asked, dumbfoundedly, looking at her shocked face.

"What just happened?" Noah furrows his eyebrows, looking back and forth between me and my sister.

"She just used the pack bond and read my thoughts... And replied." I stare at her while talking to him.

"Alright, stop whatever you guys are doing. Riley, come here honey, I have some clothes for you." Phebee's angelic voice reaches our ears before she descends the stairs. I've always wanted a mum like her.

My mum died from Wolfsbane poisoning not long after my first change. I was only seven years old. At first my dad told me she got sick and died in her sleep, which technically is true, but he then later told me, when I was nine, that it was murder. Both my parents were murdered by the same family.

That family just so happens to have an egotistical, abusive, lying, manipulative, fuckwit for a son. I will kill them all one day. Daniel will be last, I want him to know what's coming. I want him to coward away and hide. It makes the chase so much more fun for me and my pack of hunters.

Riley's POV

"Alright, stop whatever you guys are doing. Riley, come here honey, I have some clothes for you." Noah gives my hand a quick squeeze before I head towards his gorgouse mother, who leads me up the wooden stairs.

She stops in front of Noah's bedroom door before walking in. Laying neatly on his bed are three sets of yoga pants and sports bras. I look at them with confusion. The yoga pants I Love, but the sports bras are pretty revealing.

"Since you're one of us and are my son's mate, we thought that some training would be a good way for you to meet some of the girls." She smiles widely.

"Training?" I repeat, slightly confused.

"Has Ash ever tought you self defence?" She wonders.

"When I came out of hospital around eight months ago he made me eat all this protein stuff and we used to go out into the woods where he would randomly jump on me to see my reaction, if that counts?"
