Dawn's first light touched the fields as Richard and I made our way back inside. I could feel people arriving to begin their day. 'Good morning, Alpha,' the doctor greeted from afar. 'Doctor Caitlin Foster and the nurse are waiting to look her over.' 'I hate to wake her,' I said. 'They’ll ju
I decided to worry about that once I finished with Jeremy. I was close to his office when I called Jake. “What do you have on Colt?” “Nothing interesting. He migrated from Africa many years ago. He and the sergeant aren't blood relatives. We found that out through a DNA test.” “So why does he c
Sara POV Sunlight poured in through the window of the palatial chamber, forcing me to wake up. Memories of the previous day rushed in as I slowly opened my eyes. I considered going back to sleep to put off the day. It felt like I was soaked in the Alpha's scent. The ache between my thighs was odd
"Hi. Good morning," I greeted awkwardly. "Good morning." Silence. We were both waiting for the other to speak. "Where are you?" I asked him. "In Orphic. I had to quickly come here to... ah... see someone." "Lindsey is keeping me in your room!" "Yeah. It's temporary, I promise. I need you to sta
As she approached, Lindsey waited by the door. Soon, she sat across from me and gave the guard a disapproving glare. "I'm here on the Alpha's direct orders, Luna," Lindsey said. "I went to fetch her myself for Goddess sake. What? Does he think I'll eat her before he gets back?" Lindsey ignored t
Nick POV Coincidence! That's all it was. Eerie as hell, but still a coincidence. My mother couldn't be the she-wolf that bore the sergeant. If she were, that would make us brothers. That was nothing short of preposterous. Even as I thought these things, my head was spinning from what I'd just lea
The Chief regarded me with terror as I laughed. I had nearly killed that guy. My own blooded brother? Only yesterday, I sat meditating on how to go about removing him from this world. How could the Luna do this? I matched out of the Chief’s study and headed out. He kept calling after me throug
Sara POV I rose from the sofa as the Alpha's presence grew stronger. The fact that I could now sense him from such a distance despite all the walls was somewhat thrilling. But I refused to let that weaken my resolve. I sucked in a deep breath to brace myself as silent footsteps approached from th
He recalled the curvy she-wolf and decided that he would have to make do with her. This was just to let off steam, so he nodded at his uncle's words. "Thanks, uncle." "Go on home, then. She'll meet you in ten minutes." **** As promised, ten minutes later, the door bell rang. Kevin simply stood u
Kevin Kevin chose not to believe Tessa's words. She was talking like a drama queen right now. This was nothing but her grudge speaking. She-wolves got like this when they were hurt. He stepped back from her and breathed, "Boy, can you hold a grudge. It's been what, two whole months? You need to l
"Fox, right?" The Alpha asked. "How are you doing?" "I'm good, Alpha. I was passing by and remembered the announcement. I stopped to see if there's anyway I could assist at the feast tomorrow night." "That's thoughtful. I believe Richie could use your help with the warriors." Damn it! "I'll get
Kevin No matter how Kevin tried, he could not rationalize Richard Wolfe's behaviour. He could not come up with an excuse for his reaction. That male wanted his babydoll. That was the only reasonable conclusion after that redundant meeting. Kevin recalled the guy's attitude all of the times Tessa
It was hard to clear the air while avoiding telling him that the date at Meat cafe was an attempt to use Kevin to escape. The same way I tried to use him. "So you didn't want to be in his house, that's why you came to see me for another seduction." A part of me was glad that he figured that out o
Tessa POV The walls were too thick to hear the conversation between Richard and Kevin. But it was easy to guess why the latter had come here. He wanted me to report for work in his household and was here to get the Chief Gamma to make it happen. What would Richard's response be? If he knew that wa
"I'm here because of her." Kevin's tone grew serious as he went on, "You see, yesterday, she was supposed to report at my house. Then I learned that you needed her to run some errands outside. I was pretty shocked." So you stalked her all the way to the tower, huh? He hesitated before continuing
Richard POV "Who did you say?" I didn't mean for my tone to take on an edge. I could feel Tessa's odd look as the servant replied, "Mister Fox. The chief-elder's nephew." The irritation rose inside me like a tidal wave. Kevin Fox? In my house? How dare him come here? I considered telling Tyres
The butler turned around and urged me back inside. As we reentered the living room, I was about to ask if this was Mrs Wolfe's house when something distracted all of my senses. My eyes moved in the direction of the distraction. Richard Wolfe emerged at the top of the stairs, climbing down leisurely
