The ride back to Jacobi's mansion was more silent than the one to the party. There was a bit of tension in the air, with him still fuming with rage and me feeling like shit. So much for announcing me to the wolf world. I scoffed.We got to the mansion and despite the fact I was now living here, it was still a breathtaking site to behold."Claire wait" Jacobi called out, his palm gently but firmly holding my wrist. I was about opening the car door and stepping out."What is it?" I asked, my eyes searching his handsome face for an answer.He gently let my wrist go, putting his hand into the breast pocket of his suit as he brought out a tiny velvet box. He handed it to me.My slender fingers curled around the box as I took it from his palm. I hesitantly opened it and an audible gasp left my lips the moment I saw what was inside.It was a ring made with an emerald stone in the middle. I held it up with my fingers as it glowed brighter in the moonlight."It's gorgeous" I whispered without

(A FEW MINUTES EARLIER)JACOBI'S POV"Excuse me for a second" I said immediately as Zander gave me the news. My gaze lingered on her. I contemplated taking her outside with me, I didn't want to leave her alone even for a second.Her full plump lips spread into a reassuring smile, easing my mind. Fuck! She's so beautiful. She'll be fine, I thought. I walked out with Zander behind me. I was pissed."Give me the details" I ordered the moment we got out of earshot. The only place that was close to being soundproof was zanders car. This wasn't something I wanted people to be aware of."We found three of them lurking around the edge of your mansion your majesty, they had a dozen pile of wolfsbane with them" he said "How the hell did they get wolfsbane" I muttered in anger.Wolfsbane was the only thing that could render a wolf powerless, and three rogues had a dozen of them.Zander had abruptly cut off my plans for the night to inform me that rogues, had been found roaming around the bord

CLAIRE'S POVI had never been so grateful for a slit in my life. I ran as fast as my human legs could carry me. Anywhere would be fine. Anywhere but here.Never piss off a wolf!If only I had listened. The panic I felt was enough to pump adrenaline into my veins. I couldn't see where I was going, but I knew I was heading for the door.I ran until I went headfirst into a wall. No it wasn't a wall. It was Jacobi. "Relax" he whispered as he stroked my hair and I immediately felt my fear slowly dissipate.I was keenly aware that everyone was watching as I buried my head in his chest. I was safe at last.He pulled back and pulled me behind him. He held my hand, wrapping his fingers around mine. My heart skipped a beat as I felt a thrill move throw my body, from the point where our hands connected. I blushed.I stared at our joined hands, his muscular and big hands engulfing my tiny and slender hands. I wanted that hand to be all over me, touching and exploring every inch of my skin. Sig

Liliana took a long sip of her drink. Throwing her head back as she gulped down everything in one go."Slow down Lils, that's like you're seventh glass" Marcus chastised, trying to prevent her from taking another glass from a waiter."It's none of your goddamn business" she said, her words slurring a little. Do wolves get drunk or is this mixed with something?I stared at my own glass and contemplated drinking it or not."I googled you" she said with a glare."What?" I replied in surprise "I. Googled. You" she replied sharply " and you won't believe the vile things I found about your sorry ass" a wicked grin was spreading across her face, making my heart beat even faster.My throat went dry. All colour slowly draining from my face. The things online were not true but yet I still felt like I had been caught in a crime.It had been five years. Five years since I left that life behind. But because of some stupid shit called Internet, it would always come back to hunt me.She laughed but

"Oh" he bowed slightly and I did thesame "it's a pleasure to meet you Miss Claire smith""Like wise" I said. Jacobi removed his hand from my waist and I felt a little bit dejected. He handed me a glass of champagne he had taken from a waiter walking by."Your majesty!" I drew in a steady breath immediately as I heard the sound of her voice. How could I forget.Liliana walked forward with a sort of feral grace that made it clear that she was no prey. Her confidence gaining everyone's attention. She was beautiful, I'd have to say.She wore a purple dress that hugged every curve of her body like a second skin. Her hips sashaying with every step she took. She bowed her head "Your majesty I thought you wouldn't make it" she said, rubbing her hand against Jacobi's arm. He gently pushed her hand away in a casual way, that wouldn't draw too much attention. If she felt embarrassed or hurt by his action, she didn't show it."I decided last minute" he said with a stoic expression.Three more

The ride to the party was a quiet one. We sat in the backseat of his rolls Royce phantom, the only thing separating us was the armrest in the middle of the backseat.My nerves were on edge. I tried to bite back the need to bite my perfectly manicured nails. Don't get me wrong! This wasn't my first time out in public gatherings, but it was my first time doing so in the wolf world. I had spent five years hiding away from them, like shadow. But now here I was, about to be the centre of attention.I stole a glance at Jacobi, and I was startled to see that he was watching me. His right hand was resting calmly on the window, with his thumb lightly grazing his lower lip. A strand of his dark hair had come undone from the slicked back hairstyle he had adorned a while ago. The light from the moon casted a sort of glow that made him more surreal. He was majestically beautiful. Those were the words I could describe him with.Our eyes met, and once again I was sucked into those endless dark orbs
