"Oh Logan," the girl moaned. Logan looked up smiling at the girl, but then he caught sight of me. His smile disappeared. His mouth opened to call my name, but I slammed the door shut and ran back to Drew and Luke. We were almost out the house when someone grabbed my wrist. I turned around and saw Logan. "Let me explain Dani." "You don't need to . We're through," I spat and punched him as hard as I could. I struck him in the nose. I was satisfied that it was enough to break it. Drew and Luke helped me into the car. "Let me see your knuckles," Luke asked reaching out. I winced as he lightly touched the area around my knuckles where the skin had split. His ice cold hands helped the throbbing.

Book 2 in Stray Series. I know I'm not worthy of a second chance. I've taken away so many others' second chances. I took their lives in my hands and each time chose mine over theirs. It didn't matter who they were, if they had family, how old they were. I had a job to do. If I heard even a whisper, it was over. I had to. I didn't want to, but I had to. It didn't even matter in the end. She's gone now. I'm all alone. Somehow, for some reason, a second chance was bestowed on me. But I don't want it. I can't have it.

She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might.

Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me."

I threatened moving back and he just chuckles "what wrong with you ?" I asked as a tear dropped from my eyes. "You think I'm scared of that knife. I enjoy pain just like I enjoy killing people." "You sick stay away from me." I shouted taking a step back. "I know. People used to call me psycho when I was a kid so I became one." ******* EDITED VERSION OUT NOW :)

I fell on the floor and held my hand to my face."I fucking hate you!!! I hate you!!"I screamed and cried. He began punching me in my stomach and thighs. "You Hate me bitch?Huh?"He asked with hands on my neck choking me. I felt like I was going to pass out so I started kicking and trying to scream for help."Bitch stop kicking me."He punched me and I looked in his eyes. All I could see was once his beautiful brown eyes now all black and bloodshot red, before I blacked out.

*Short Story* It is difficult to stay with the people who look down at you like you are some kind of disease. It hurts when they don't want to acknowledge you for the good things you have done. It hurts when your family rejects you only because you are quiet and weak saying you are good for nothing. Annie Ryan was nothing but a quiet, innocent teenager waiting for her mate to save her from the dark hell she was living in. She had only one dream, she wanted to feel loved, she wanted someone to tell her that they care and would love her no matter what happens. But little did she know that she was just another unfortunate soul whose mate had different plans. Caden was an young alpha. He had everything but where everyone was eager to meet their mate, he wasn't. He had already given his position of alpha female to his girlfriend. But after she left him, he turned cold and ruthless. But when he met Annie, his mate, one thing was clear. He wanted nothing to do with her. He asked her to leave but when she declined, he paid her no attention like she never existed. Annie was broken. Her dream was just a dream. Every night she closed her eyes, she realized she was going to die alone with no one to care. She wanted to end her life but not before setting everything right, not before her destined alpha mate finds his happiness. Caden didn't know what he was missing until he lost it. Maybe that's how life works. Maybe that's why it is called cruel.

"Don't scream." One of them looked straight into my eyes and my best friend's. "We won't." We said at the same time. They bit into our necks and I didn't know what happened from there.

I walked out of the bathroom, not seeing Drew. Suddenly I was grabbed and pushed up against a wall. Drew's intoxicating smell captured me making me oozy.
