Just when he was starting to outgrow that fantasy, his mother had entered his life. The great Elise Reign. Her mate, the enemy, already passed to the stars. The people he left behind were the woman who bore him and her other children. How he wanted to hurt the older she-wolf. But he didn't know how
Sara POV We reached the resort within a half hour as Nick hurriedly led me to his private elevator. As we got to the penthouse, Jake stood by the door, waiting. He gave a slight bow. A smile played in his eyes as he greeted, "Hello, Miss James. Welcome." I frowned, still unaccustomed to his f
I expected him to sit back after the surprise kiss but he didn't. Images flashed in my mind. Him, sweeping the dishes off the table with his large hand, lifting and setting me on top of it to claim me right there. When he started speaking again, I watched his lips, unable to look anywhere else. "
Sara POV "You should be with Lily. Why are you here?" The Alpha's voice assumed its usual tone. The type that made you flinch if you were on the other end of the conversation. "I had to come. It's important," Elise replied, matching his tone. Then she switched to mindlink as her eyes moved from
Nick smiled inwardly. I felt his pride as I spoke and it boosted my confidence. I could feel Elise's eyes on me too. The older Alpha's eyes grew hard from annoyance. He did expected me to lower my head like an omega. Fixing his face quickly, he smiled as his eyes held mine. "Tell me what you heard
Sara POV Avery's eyes were on us as Nick began to slow the car. "Nick, I don't think he's following us. Maybe he's here to see the Luna," I said. "And why the hell is he wearing my clothes?" He stopped the car with Avery only a few yards away. How could the sergeant possibly lay hands on his cl
It was past 11 PM when Nick pulled into our driveway. Shadows moved among the trees beyond our house. They were his warriors. I felt him scanning the place and mindlinking the guards as we got out of the car. Moments later, we entered the humble living room. Lorenzo and Janice rose to their feet
Nick POV "Avery is not your enemy, Nick," Sara said softly. "He's your brother." I wasn't referring to the sergeant when I said possible enemy. But it's a good thing she thought I was. It meant her mind was off our visitor now. "I guess you're right. He's not an enemy," I replied with a shrug.
I'd ended up in this motel around 1 AM after hours of running and hiding. Which I was beginning to believe was redundant. I'd sat, shaking my legs, waiting for the Alpha wolf to knock on the door. Oh, he would knock, no doubt. He seemed like the posh, well-mannered type. The boring, peaceful sou
Penny listened to the Luna with kin interest, her lips parted slightly. Kevin decided he hated the nursing job too. Because she could run into her former customers while in the medical house. His gut settled down a bit as the Luna went on with other suggestions. "If you don't like that, there's
Kevin Kevin waited by the shrub far from the mansion until he was sure that Tessa and Richard had left the building. Penny was in there too. He'd called the reception earlier, and they confirmed that she had arrived. He had been mildly shocked that she didn't refuse this meeting. Her tone was
Richard POV For the next few seconds, Alpha Jet looked like he was staring at a ghost. Then, the color gradually returned to his face as he recovered, though he didn't look away from Tessa. Raven. That's what he just called her. Clearly, he had her mixed up with someone else. But that didn't give
Later that morning, Richard and I walked into the Chamber of Oaths where the Alpha and his family were already waiting. The candles of various colors gave sufficient light to the vast room. The smell of incense and beeswax filled the vast space. Richard led me to stand before the Alpha and his he
Tessa POV I opened my eyes to the sunlight dripping into the vast bedchamber through the curtains. It was the morning after my release. As I came awake gradually, I started to think that I dreamt the events of the last few days. That Richard Wolfe was not my fated mate. Last night was just a swee
"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
