I didn't dare turn around as Nick's alpha scent engulfed me. He had to know his mother would do this. I couldn't hope that he would take my side.It was hard to feel relieved by his sudden appearance. With my peripheral vision, I stole a glance his way as he came closer. His face was hard as stone.
I could feel Nick’s eyes on me and was starting to feel warm from his annoyance. Yet I didn’t spare him another glance as I walked away. The lady’s mouth hung open like she wanted to say something, but I didn’t have the patience to wait and hear whatever she had to say.I laid Alex on the bed in the
Sara POV“Good morning, daddy,” the child said, a happy smile coloring his eyes.“Good pup," Nick said to him. "Now why don’t go with Janice and the beta. Your mother will join you in a moment, and I'll see you soon."Jake emerged with the half-wolf nanny they hired for my son. I tightened my lips,
Avery HawkeOn the night before,The Pineapple Court suites and lodge. That’s where the strange woman was staying in town. It didn't take much for Avery to get that information. It was night-fall, and he was off-duty, so he decided to head straight there. On the way, he called his uncle to ask the
“I saw you coming out of the Pineapple’s. Are you getting orders from them or what?” he asked. The man’s jaw tightened as he directed his gaze out the window. “Did something happen, Seb? Is Sara okay?” Avery pressed.“I can’t even do anything…” Sebastian trailed off, gritting his teeth. “It was E
Elise ReignThe Luna halted on her way up the airstairs. She was overcome with that familiar stirring that she felt when she first entered this town. The feeling she caught when they were stopped by that police car. A scent accompanied it this time. One she was now acquainted with. Her breathing hi
***Sara POVThat morning, I was very busy in the office. We were out in the field with Reign’s team scoping the entire area that the park was meant to cover. Apparently, it would run through the resort, too. It was not a one-day activity. I didn’t have the time to look at the content of Nick's agr
Lindsey. That's the name of the gamma assigned to be Alex's "bodyguard." She stood watching me with annoyance for a moment. Though it seemed like she was considering my words.Moments passed before she shrugged and said,“Okay. We'll head to your father’s shop before taking you home.”"The resort i
The next day began like another ordinary day. The events of last night returned the moment I came awake. It felt like a bittersweet dream rather than a real occurrence, though I was sure it happened. I resolved to put it out of my mind as I went about my day. "Eyes on your goal, Tess," I mumbled
Tessa POV My mind was blank from the shock of what was happening. My body, however, had no concept of shock at the moment. All it knew was that my face was cupped in Richard Wolfe's large hands, and he was kissing me. His grip was hard, and the kiss started harsh. The will to push him off was non
I took a sip from my glass and refocused on the girl before me. Perfect body. This should erase all images of the stray wolf from my head once and for all. Peyton Day. That omega was brought in with her. According to him, the two of them did serve the Fox's household. Two orphans. "Will you lik
Richard POV The Avalanche Night Club was not directly affiliated with Reigns Group. It was a child of one of the pack's retail subsidiaries. Nick always hated the place because she-wolves worked there sometimes. The type of females that tripped over themselves at the sight of an Alpha or any othe
"She had to start work immediately cuz she kept making trouble! I'm not sure where they took her, but she should be back before nightfall." "I see. Thanks." What kind of trouble? Tessa was a docile she-wolf. Was it outside the pack or within. Looking for her was bad enough. He didn't want the Liv
Kevin Kevin Fox always comsidered himself a proud male of worth. Any other wolf, for instance, Curtis Burns, would have continued to pretend they didn't know Tessa Nile. Not only was she of low birth, but she belonged to the class of wolves that people like him didn't publicly associate with. How
"I'm not a spy, Chief," I said earnestly. "You saw me that day, remember?" "Which day? Same day that warrior attacked you over a scent blocker?" "He didn't attack me because of the scent blocker. He propositioned me before then and I refused. He attacked me earlier that day too. Kev, I mean... the
Tessa POV My fears dissolved when I saw Vivi and Peyton emerged from their rooms too. Either the two also did something wrong or I had nothing fear. The bags they carried meant that I was not the only one getting moved out of here. I avoided looking directly at Richard as much as I could. When my
Morning came sooner than I wanted it to. Though it was a new day, I was filled with anxiety about the result of yesterday's errors. I had very little sleep and had only began to doze off when the first light of dawn poured in through the small window. I heard whispers outside as a male came to relie
