I recalled his panic-stricken face and nearly burst out laughing. But I swallowed a deep breath, pursing my lips. It was too soon to make fun of him. He still seemed shaken. "You should get laid," I muttered. "Why not call Misha once we're done from here. Or that other female." He ignored the uns
Sara POV "Jane, are you alright? You seem distracted." 'And jumpy.' We were sitting across from each other at Molly's diner. "Okay, I'm about to tell you something. Do not freak out and do not look," she began. "There’s a guy sitting near the window in a navy blue jacket. He's following us."
"Hey, why's Kylie Jenner over there looking at us? Actually, she's looking at you?" "Kylie who? Should I turn and look?" I asked jokingly. I knew she was referring to the new arrivals. She definitely was not feeling alright. Last night must've been hard on her. As she gave me a dirty look and ge
"You sure you're not saying that cuz of girls code?" "Nope. I don’t have any lingering feelings, I assure you. My heart is bound somewhere else.” “You mean with someone else. Did you choose him cuz he’s rich?” “C’mon, gurl.” Talk about transfer of aggression. Was she seriously trying to pick
"Do you need something? You got something to say to us?" Jane snapped. The she-wolf rose as we approached her table. So did her warrior. Without turning around, I could feel Archer beside me. Jane was momentarily distracted by the guard's sudden presence. "A half-blood," the noble spat in disgust
"I can't hunt, Sara, you know that," Jane said. "My mom would freak if she found out that I knowingly went to the forest. You know how she feels about that sort of thing." Yeah, I know how desperate she is to keep you from the truth. "We could sneak off during the day. Maybe on a Sunday? When the
His laugh drifted into my heart as he spoke again. "When we're alone later, I'll let you practice what you last read on me." "Thanks for your kindness," I joked shyly. "I guess I ought to." "Oh, you must, Sweetness. I'll teach you plenty of stuff, too." Can't wait to learn. I was a little shy
Avery Hawke 'Look who's here. Miss runaway,' Avery jeered into the girl's mind. His whole body tingled from being near her. She stepped back, avoiding his gaze and turning around to look at her brother whose eyes were now on him. "Look who we have here. It's sergeant sneak," the beta sneered. Tha
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
