It's been a year and a half since Nova and Maxon completed their mating...

Things were going wonderfully until someone starts sending Nova threatening letters and dead things. Normally, Maxon would've just sent out a search party to find the bastards, but they're smart. They use silver powder on everything making it hard for Maxon and the pack to get anything from it. Not to mention Nova's gifts haven't been working to well lately, and to top it all off Maxon knows Nova is keeping something from him, but he won't push her into telling him; scared he'll push her away.

When the threats hit too close to home, Maxon makes a choice that will forever alter his life. Whether it is good or bad Maxon doesn't know yet. All he knows is that he will do anything to keep Nova safe.

P. Maxon
"Bro, are you sure about this? I mean... this is huge," Alex said cautiously. Maxon had been looking out of his office window, too afraid to look away from her for even a moment even to glance at his best friend as he spoke. The fear that had began eating away at him only five months prior kept him from looking away from her. “I know the risks Alex,” he said somberly. Maxon had been well aware of the consequences and the risks that came along with this plan but what else could he do? For the first time, the actual time, he was dealing with the fear and worry of not being able to protect his mate… the premonition itself was a constant reminder of how he failed as a mate and he never wanted to feel that failure again. The fear of letting Nova down again was a heavy thought on his mind. “I only want her happiness and safety…” Nova looked so beautiful as playfully splashed water at Noni and Aj. Her caramel She looked so beautiful and happy and I wanted her to stay that way forever; happy and safe. Her face glowed as she and Noni splashed water playfully at Alex Jr. She looked better than she had in days. Her face and body had grown pale and sunken after the attack, but now she was the definition of radiant… I was lucky to have her as my mate. "Maxon!" Alex shouted, trying to regain my attention. "Maxon, look at me." As much as it pained me, I looked at him and smile sincerely. Alex couldn’t convince me that I wasn’t doing the right thing; I was determined to do what was best for my family and my pack. It was the only safe option for everyone. We decided that having our pack in the crossfire; hiding behind the strength of the pack, weren’t the Alphas we wanted to be. There were too many people after them, Nova and our pups, and nothing was more important than keeping them safe. I felt like a failure in protecting my mate… her safety had slipped through my fingers too many times. Everything had seriously gone to s**t in a very short time and this was the only way out. They will be safe and protected and that's all I want. I thought to myself. For them to be safe… "Yes, I am sure." I answered calmly. I wasn't going to allow Alex to sway my mind on this. I wasn't going to choose anything else over Nova ever again; I never wanted either of us to feel that pain again. I had almost failed her before, nearly losing her in the process, and now our pups were in danger? I wasn't going to repeat that mistake. There was nothing I wouldn't do for Nova; wasn't it the same for Alex and Noni? WE won't repeat that mistake twice, my wolf said interjecting my thoughts. That's right, I agreed. "Think about this for a minute, Maxon... do you really think that Nova would want you to do this," he asked. Scoffing and rolling my eyes, I couldn't help but to mentally laugh and sigh. I couldn't believe he was going to play that card with me... I'd make Nova mad a billion times over if it was to protect my family. I'd give any and everything I owned for them to stay safe and come home to me every day. I'd give up who I am, what I am... I smirked to myself sadly, I kind of am already, aren't I? I looked around the room that was once my office. I wouldn't have given a damn about any of the crap in it if it weren't for Nova. We made this room of furniture into a room where we laughed and cried together. We lost and gained so much in this very room together; heat flooded my body as I thought about all the things Nova and I had done on that couch, the desk, the chairs, and the floor… Now that I think about it I'll have to talk to Alex about getting new furniture for himself and Noni. I pulled myself away from the window, making sure to touch everything in my path. I wanted to remember everything the way that Nova and I left it. I was halfway across the room when a scream rang clean through the air, alerting my wolf and I. It was hers... I'd know that scream anywhere. Before I could even blink my body was back in front of the window peering down at the trio. Tension filled my body, making me stand straight and poised ready to protect my family at any cost. My body ached as the tension faded and I saw the pearly whites of her teeth formed into a smile... She was exactly the way I had left her only a few seconds ago; my wolf and I immediately relaxed as she glanced up at the window. Her smile broadened and she waved haphazardly, and I returned the gesture. My wolf wanted to come out and see her himself to see if she was really okay… but I couldn't trust him, or myself to not go to her. We weren't moving away from the window again that was for sure... he wouldn't let me. "Maxon. Come on man, you can see yourself that she's fine. You don't have to do this," he said trying to reason with me; but it was useless. I had already decided. "Alex, this isn't about what she wants or what she thinks is best. It's about what my family needs, what I need in order to stay sane...to stay alive, and right now they need to be taken somewhere safe. She needs to be somewhere where no one will know where she is," I explained. “Yeah, but—” “But what? You told me I had to take her away to keep her safe, that it was the only way to keep her safe,” I asked, cutting him off. "You'd do this for her?" I growled at his question. What the hell did he mean? I thought angrily. We’d die for her if we had to... When it came to the world versus Nova, everyone else was guilty and she was the only innocent my eyes or heart knew. I knew I would kill anyone who thought to go against her in any way. I'd die for her everyday if that was what I needed to do. Words alone couldn't explain what I would do for her. "Yes, I'd give her the world if she asked for it. I'd do whatever I could and can to keep her safe. That's why you're the Alpha now." "She's going to flip her f*****g top when she finds out. She'll never talk to Noni or me again; f**k man what about Aj?" He asked. "We will come back from time to time, but right now I have to get them away from here… between everyone wanting to kill my pups and Nova’s gifts not working we have a lot on our hands at the moment." Alex choked on his spit. If he hadn't raised his fist to his mouth, I wouldn't have been sure he had made a sound at all... he covered it up so quickly. Pushing through to the front of my mind, my wolf growled furiously. We couldn't take any more secrets from any of them… they swore to tell him everything from now on. Just because I wasn't Urathi didn't mean that I couldn't help my family... We walked to him menacingly. "What do you know?” "I can't tell you." We grabbed him by the shirt, extending our claws and canines at the same time. He might have been my brother, but nothing was more important than my family… my children. He was supposed to be helping me help them… not hindering me protecting my family. Nova needed her gifts; if something happened to her, she needed to be able to protect herself, protect the pups. "Why not?" "She Alpha ordered me… I literally can't tell you and you can't overturn it. I can tell you she’s not even sure if it’s the truth… she just wants to do more digging." I grunted, stubbornly letting him go and putting away all my sharp parts. It was like her to do something like this... to keep me out of the loop to not worry me… I couldn't help the embarrassment that shaded my face knowing Nova thought she was sparing my feelings. "Maxon..." "What," I asked; the word came off stronger than I wanted it too and seeing him flinch from the force made me tame the beast inside. "Yes," I said smoothly. "Don't be upset with her… you’re going to have questions and having her tell you I don't know to them all would be frustrating… let her work it out and tell you on her own time," he offered. I looked away from him embarrassed and keeping my eyes trained on the floor, I nodded. My mind began to race with different possibilities on what could be wrong with my mate. What could she want to hide from me? What did she have to hide?
