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.
Only business or werewolf politics brought me to this side of the dark web. Or the human social media. Scrolling the pages always reminded me of how daft and infuriating people could be, humans and non-humans alike. My son and I were still trending. So was the speculation about the "mystery female
Avery Hawke Avery left his waiting point and returned to the place where he’d found the spare clothes earlier. The truth was he knew they belonged to the Alpha. The scent was distinct and impossible to miss. But he hadn’t been thinking, so he hadn't dwelt on that little detail. All of his thoughts
More fighting, huh. Maybe it's over a she-wolf. They better not be in my backyard though. As I drew nearer, my senses registered the wrestlers. I couldn't help but heave a deep sigh and roll my eyes at the same time. 'What a f*cking busy night!' Up ahead, near my tunnel, Oak and Avery fought fie
The older male's took a deep breath like he was willing himself to calm down. His eyes, which had started to glint, went back to normal. "Alpha Nick," he said. "You and my daughter were together during the period your pup was conceived. That is an insult to my household. To the people of the Night
“Your pup, Rowan, huh. If you're here to see him, you should be in his house and not here, scolding me.” "I also have a grandpup whom you're keeping here instead of moving him home already!" She barked. "Mother, wherever the three of us are, together, that's home." "So what? You'll live together
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
