Makayla's POV:
Diego decided that it was time I met a few other members of the pack or at least get to know the members of the pack I already met better.

I was kind of scare I mean, I nearly killed Sky. I didn't mean to but I still nearly did. Pledging my allegiance to the pack won't erase my mistakes, but hopefully it will show I'm sorry for them.

"Come on Amore, I promise no one will hurt you."

He held out his hand for me to take and I slowly slipped off our bed to take his hand. I know he'll protect me but I don't want his friendships to suffer because of me.

"Di wait."

I've been thinking about this for awhile now and I need to tell him. We both stopped before leaving the room and Diego turned to face me.

"Diego, can..can you mark me?"

He looked taken back by my question but I was dead serious. I know it's important to werewolves it's like making us official.

"You..you want me to mark you?"

I nodded and wrapped my arms around his neck before kissing his lips. I want him to know I'm comfortable with him being a werewolf, I want him to know that it's not just the mate bond.

"Of course I do Di, I know it's important for you and for Wyatt. It's important for you to mark me as your and I want you to know I'm comfortable with you and Wyatt. I want you to know that I love you and I'm not just saying it because of the mate bond. I want to wear your mark Diego."

I kissed his lips again and before I knew it Diego had me pressed against the wall whilst he attacked my lips.

"This is going to hurt Amore, but I'll try to make it as painless as possible. I love you so much Makayla Callahan. I don't care if your human and can't mark me back my mark will tell everyone I'm yours."

I lent my head to the side so he had more access and I felt him smile against my skin as he trailed kissed down from my lips to my neck.

I felt his teeth graze my neck and I held my breath to prepare myself for the pain but nothing could prepare me for when he bit down hard into my neck. I bit my lip to stop myself from screaming but then the pain suddenly faded and as Diego licked over my mark I felt tingles shoot through my body.

"Your all mine now Amore. I..I have something else to give you, they belong to you Amore."

I watched as he walked over to his dresser and pulled open a draw.

I couldn't quite see what he took out but he soon closed the draw and was stood in front of me again holding something tight in his fist.

He took my one hand and had me open my hand before he slide what was in his fist into my hand. The whole time I was just watching his eyes. I looked down when I felt something cool in my palm.

I looked down to see a chain and when I picked it up attached to the metal chain were dog tags.

He..he was in the army? How..When..Why...

"You..you were in the army? How? When? Why? Is...is this why your so over protective over everyone and why your the pack's Head Warrior, is this why you..."

I closed my mouth, I can't tell him I've heard him screaming in the night sometimes or how I've noticed him holding me tight at night.

"Yes Makayla. I've always looked older then I really am and when I turned sixteen I joined the army. I was being reckless and stupid, I lost people close to me and I decided the way forward was to fight away my problems. I only came back a few months ago, I was give an honourary discharge after I got wounded and Zayn's dad found out. I got the telling off of a life time but it felt good being out there but now I'm just Head Warrior and I'm glad after what I saw out there I don't plan on going back, I can't. Makayla you do realise I can read your thoughts. I'm sorry if I've scared you Maks, my PTSD isn't usually too bad, but tell me if it starts to get too much or it scares you because we'll talk about it okay."

I nodded my head and placed the dog tags around my neck before I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed his lips.

"You didn't scare me Di. I love you."

He smiled down at me before we headed outside and there were several wolves just lying peacefully there.

I watched as Diego smiled and headed towards the wolves. They all ran towards him and rubbed against him as he patted a few of their heads. They must have really missed him.

I clutched the dog tags in my hand, I don't think I could image growing up with someone and then have them disappear for two years.

"Come over here Amore, I want you to meet everyone. The brown wolf is Ashton well Carter and that's his mate Ryder he's the white wolf his wolf's call Kep. Gabriel's the black wolf he's called Zero and that's his mate Charlie he's the sandy wolf called Casey. You already know Benedict, Maxim and Jerome or Shep, Nero and Hero. The dark grey wolf is Link also known as Beacon and the grey wolf over there is Sky's Uncle Silas well Draven."

They all looked at me before they turned there attention back to Diego.

I took a deep breath and as I went to walk over my legs gave out from under me. My body felt like it was on fire and I couldn't help but cry out in pain.

"Makayla?!"

I heard Diego yell out my name but I couldn't focus on anything but the pain that was spreading through my body.

"What's happening to her?"

I looked up to see Diego talking to Silas, while everyone else was crowding round trying to see if I was hurt, I just want to know what the hell is happening to me.

"I..I think she's shifting."
