My heart shatters in my chest, my soul shredding as the memories of that day come right back to me.
Once again panic starts rising in my body, that day had changed my life in so many ways but mainly it scared me. And ever since then I’ve been living in a daze, one that was always following me around, leaving me numb and full of anxiety and anger.
“Why?”
I ask her, looking at her parents who were both watching us, a sad expression on their faces.
“Why what?”
She snaps gritting her teeth
“Why do you want to know? I didn’t want it to happen! You know I never wanted any of it to happen! And since that day it’s never happened again, that’s why she’s dead”
“What happened that day!”
Bronx growls at her persistence, embarrassed that such a thing could happen to us, we were one of the most powerful people in the world and we got r***d.
“Just drop it”
“Fine I’ll drop it if you drop me, I don’t want anything to do with you, now leave me alone”
“Hell no! You are coming home with me”
She snorts at me so I snort back taking a step towards her.
“No! You touch me and I’ll put you on your a*s!”
She shouts taking a step back, I smirk at her, that primordial s**t didn’t work on me. I advance grabbing her waist and throwing her over my shoulder, she screams thumping on my back and kicking out her legs
“Put me down, you big lanky giant! I am NOT GOING ANYWHERE!!”
She screams as I look at her very surprised mum and dad
“Have her stuff sent over”
“Don’t you f*****g dare! I have work! Iv a damn kingdom to run and it’s much more important than your stupid one now let me GO!!!”
Bronx grins in my head, loving the feeling of her touch, it was like a mini she hulk pounding on my back and left in its wake was a whole lot of tingles
“Details smetails, we can sort that stuff out later”
“Branson put her down, you're not taking her against her will!”
“Then tell her to come of her own free will old man!”
He growls at me, stepping in my path.
“No, you won’t take her like this, she is my daughter, she is under my rule, and she is on my land.”
“She's my mate! In the werewolf community that means when she is 18 she's mine, she is 18 and 4 months, so she’s mine”
He rolls his eyes
“I get your kind are stuck in a past that is not only ugly but very derogatory to almost all women but our kind still has free will, especially if that person is my daughter and the future queen! Put her down before I make you”
“Let the old fossil come, I bet we will win”
Bronx growls, I place her on her feet and step back taking a deep breath
“No, you can’t do this, you have one week to prepare yourself to come home with me. After that, I’m not waiting any longer, but if you dare touch another soul I swear I’ll rip them apart peace by peace by my teeth in your face then I’ll have my wolves eat them”
She snorts rolling her eyes
“Oh please, you say that like it’s a bad thing, I’d pay to watch you get eaten now leave!”
“One f*****g week katana, I’m not joking or taking the piss. One week and you're coming home so deal with your business and prepare to become Luna because you will be in one week”
I snap at her, walking out and closing the door behind me.

Katy’s POV
“1 week! 1 f*****g week! Who does he think he is, coming in here and demanding that I go with him? He’s delusional! A f*****g arsehole!”
I groan opening my eyes
“Wake up already! I’m sick of talking to myself! Can you believe him!”
My head was thumping, the sun was only starting to rise in the sky as karma continues to rant on.
“Cheating piece of s**t thinks he can show up here and tell me what I can and can’t do! Then he tries to take us! ARE YOU f*****g KIDDING ME”
I fake cry into my pillow, her voice was way too high-pitched for this time of day.
“Sorry, but seriously can you believe him!”
“No, I can’t, we aren’t going, so stop worrying about it”
I tell her rubbing my temples and rolling out of bed, I go to the closet and Grab pjs
“I’m not so sure about that, he might make us go”
I snort
“How, we are more powerful than him”
I say childishly, storming out of our room to find coffee and Redbull and anything else that will send this headache to the high heavens.
“Power isn’t everything”
I roll my eyes grabbing a Redbull as the coffee is brewing, turning my phone on, I immediately put it on silent as it starts beeping as a mountain of messages and missed calls come through one after the other.
I ignore all of Branson’s messages and go to joe feeling guilty that I put him on the firing line.
(Joe)
‘I hope I didn’t make it weird by kissing you, I just wanted you to have your first kiss’
“It was gross but sweet”
Karma muses, peering out of my eyes as I text back
(Katy)
‘Nah we are all good, but the mate felt it, gave me 1 week to get ready to move in with him
I send it back and down my Red Bull, lifting the coffee pot and pouring myself a large mug. Dad appears to my surprise
“Hey, your up early”
I grab another mug and pour him a cup, he smiles kissing my head as he takes it.
“Yeah I couldn’t sleep much, how are you doing”
“I’m for one, extremely pissed off!”
Karma pushes forward to tell him making him chuckle
“And what about you Katy? How do you feel about it?”
“I’m the same, I don’t have to go do I?”
I ask him taking a seat opposite him and grabbing a muffin from the muffin jar.
“No, but I think you should think about it”
I frown at him
“Why would I do that?”
He sighs
“Because you're missing out, you have one of the greatest gifts in a mate, I know you don’t get along but when you figure that out everything changes, I don’t want you to lose any time”
I roll my eyes
“He cheated on me”
“No, he didn’t, believe me when I say this, that kiss between you and joe last night was more along the lines of cheating, than what Branson’s ever done.”
“What? What does that even mean?”
He sighs rubbing his temples
“It’s hard to explain”
“Ok well, why did he almost mark and marry another girl?”
“Because he was young and f*****g stupid”
He answers honestly
“But it all changed the moment he met you, everything for him changed. A hug isn’t classed as cheating but he felt so guilty that you felt it”
I purged my lips, karma was watching us, her heart was broken and she wanted something to ease the pain.
“But that last day, that wasn’t a hug dad, that was different”
He nods his head
“Yes your right, but even though I was pissed at the time when I realised what happened I realised that it wasn’t his fault. None of it was and he has been hurting because of it ever since”
“What does that mean?”
Karma asks, suddenly nervous
“It means he didn’t ask for that to happen and when it did happen he killed her straight away. Since that day he changed, he’s angry, his people are terrified of him. He rules with an iron fist but it’s all because he’s hurting, all I ask is to give him a chance to tell you himself but it takes trust”
“What? He doesn’t trust me?”
I was so f*****g confused
