Everything started five years ago. 

Elise Collins was framed, left everything behind, and ran away, never wanting to even take a glance at it again. However, news of her being pregnant spreads like a wildfire in the city, and her thought that someone will be able to help her, crumbles as everyone avoids her like she’s a curse.

In a snap, she had no place to return to. 

Defeated, she aspires to become stronger, and that happened when she came back five years later, already a top hacker.

As soon as Axel Carter knows it, the father of the child she gave birth to, he instantly chases her. Trapped in the hospital, he confronts her.

With those scarlet raging eyes, his teeth gnash. "Do you know the price of playing with me, woman?"

A bewildered Kieran looks on as Gomez grabs the hood of my jacket, trying to stop me. I claw his hands away, obsessed with getting back to Kurt's mansion and sniffing this traitor out.

"Going in there with all guns blazing will get us killed." Gomez grips my shoulders with bruising force and a stern tone. "This could be a trap. Virginia may be miles away in another state."

"Hey, don't shoot the messenger." Kieran interrupts. "I'm giving you good intel. The kind of information that could have me kicked out of Midnight Fire. I should be reporting this back to Dante."

"What do you want -- a cookie?" Gomez snorts, looking over his shoulder. "Aly! Cool it."

"Kieran. Don't tell Dante what you've managed to find out." I mutter, letting go of my anger. "I'll handle this. If your Alpha crosses the border and raises hell, he'll get half of this pack killed for treason."
