My phone started to buzz again. It was my mother this time. I turned the screen face down, but Jake already saw the caller. The she-wolf became a caller after my dad died. Before that, it was strictly texting. “I need to handle business back in the city,” I said idly. My mind had drifted again. Sa
Sara POV I tried to blink away the grogginess as Jake led me away. I still felt weak and sleepy but had to force myself to leave that heavenly bed. I missed Alex and my dad. Seeing them both, holding them would make me sure that this nightmare was over. That guard, Oak or something. He had never a
As I entered the hall, the housekeeper was waiting. "Your room is ready, Miss James," she announced with a smile. "But the Alpha wants me to tell you that you're welcome to return to his bed if you want." "I'll use my, I mean the room," I replied. "Thank you." Moments later, I had changed into th
Richard didn't know what he was talking about. He didn't know the whole story. If he did, he wouldn't say it was all about protecting me. But I wish he hadn't mentioned it. Because now, my mind was more scattered than ever. I didn’t need this battle of struggling not to think of things from Nick's
"Got it." We said our good nights and hung up. Jeremy Colt was the last person I called. My conversation with him only increased my resentment for Nick. How could he have gone to my workplace to threaten my boss? People have lost their jobs for far less. “He thought I ran off with his son, that'
The sight of the joggers had me frozen on the spot until the sound of flesh slapping on flesh grew too appalling to bear. As I started to back away, Miss Suarez lifted her head and our gazes met. I couldn't decide if the sound that came out of her in that moment was shock or another moan. I turned
Sara POV The next morning, I was determined to be normal. It was a new day. Yesterday never happened as far as I was concerned. It was also time to get back home. Thankfully, my duties for the day were at the site instead of the office. I decided that I would trust Nick for now and not worry ab
Oh and let me say this so you're not caught off guard. I'm going to the city to sort out basic stuff. I'll be back soon. And the next time I fly out of here, I'll take you with me! Both of you!" "No you won't! What do you even mean?" I asked. He started to walk away as he replied, "You'll see. N
"So who and who did you service these last few weeks?" He blurted the question. "What do you care?" She snapped again. "What do I care? Are those the only words you know?" "Kevin, shut up. Let the elder finish talking," his cousin said. He couldn't believe he was getting told to shut up by his
Kevin It is the morning after the full moon and Kevin is sitting in his living room, staring at his phone, unable to tear his eyes away from the social media post before him. The coffee taste in his mouth had gone very bitter. His stomach twisted and he felt like throwing up. Uncle Evan and his
He brought my hand to his lips and kissed it. "So please, I beg of you, let's put the past behind us. Don't say you can't stay with me. We belong together." I nodded. Then he bent to kiss me on the lips as I began to speak, "I want to stay with you..." "I love the sound of that." He stole his ki
Tessa POV "And you say Goddess can't be generous..." Alpha Nick's voice cut through the whispers. Followed by the Beta's. "I should've put money on this, damn it!" As much as people's voices rose all around us, out loud and in the mind realm, everything faded into the background as Richard wal
'Stay right there, Richard!' The Alpha's warning came through the mindlink, making me realize that I'd risen from the bench and was about to go to Tessa. 'Be patient,' he added. 'So we can get this over with.' It was Jane Carlisle who forced me to sit back down as she pulled me by my jacket. 'G
I had six cups of those in Nick's study. No effect. The doctor said he would return in two hours with the test results. Nothing would keep me here in this house until then. I would be in the House of Judgement then. At twenty minutes to sunset, I took the warm towel off my forehead and flung it
Kevin decided that the girl was mistaken. No. She was lying. People didn't get pregnant that fast and easy. "I can't smell it!" He said lamely. "Cuz it's twenty-three days and not eight weeks old yet!" She replied in an edge. All of the implications of the news hit Kevin one after the other as
Tessa would've agreed to be his mistress back then. She was humble and knew her place in the olden days. Not anymore though. Now, the girl was a proud she-wolf. Why? Because of the thieving Chief, that's why! He let her mingle with other proud, elite females. This new Tessa would demand to be the o
Kevin In the afternoon of the day of the full moon, Kevin decided to go to the Meat cafe to chill by himself. He needed some fresh air after hiding indoors out of shame for so long. They were no longer on house arrest. Though he and his mother weren't allowed outside the pack until the verdict was
