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 thoserge blue eyes as she assured
me . No , that was an rm 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 . Rx Liam but I do think we will be back before eleven . It’s only six
pm now . ” She said , ncing 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 happenedst 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 im 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 – C ? ” 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 thoserge 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 cing it on the tray before carrying it to the living room . cing
the food down , I put a slice on her te 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 ept me and me alone was so damn strong . But I didn’t really
deserve that , not after how I shut her out for thest 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 muttion , 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 ept 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 minutester … ” 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 reallyin . What idiot gives a kid coke just because they said they are allowed it .. ? Me .
That’s who . Two hourster ,
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 ident 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 apanied 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 , Westwood . ” Moonlight Muse Author ” Thank you for
