"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
Two weeks later. Sara POVIt was happening. My mating ceremony with Nickolas Reign. I would have thought this was a dream if not for the fluttering in my heart and stomach. Four days ago, I had feared that this day may never come, but thank Goddess, I had been wrong. My fears were unfounded.I had
Prelude: Jane believes the rules are simple. And awesome since they apply to both of them. Rule one. The marriage is a secret. No one can know about it. Two. The contract goes void as soon as she gets free from her "condition." Thirdly. Three months is the maximum time length. The agreement ends
A few days ago (Weeks before the mating ceremony), Jake POV It was the evening after the full moon. The day after my best friend and Alpha won back his mate. More than anything, I wanted to head back to Los Angeles where my life was normal. At least, it would seem like normal if I was far from thi
“So no housewarming party, huh? What a shame?” I grumbled. That sleepwalker would surely be here if Sara had thrown a party. They were good friends, it seemed. “Oh Fate, you're totally right," she exclaimed. "I can't believe I didn’t think of that." “There’s still time, Sweets," Nick said. "You
The session went on for two hours while Richard and I kept locking eyes. I was extremely satisfied with myself for saying no to Kevin in front of him. I hoped he wouldn't ask me about that night ever again. Because I couldn't bring myself to tell him that I got carried away by the mere thought of
Tessa POV The day of the hearing arrived. It was the day after Richard's visit. I woke up, washed up and got ready before full daylight. When the beep sounded on the door, I quickly rose to drink some water, then waited eagerly to be led out. Grace stood between the door jamb when the door opene
"Oh, yeah," she nodded eagerly. How could the Luna entertain this? I continued on my way, stomping past them. "I'm going back to work!" "Me too," Jake said. Thank Goddess, Tessa couldn't hear us from up there. Once we reached the door, I halted as a thought occured. What if my mother begged Sar
Richard POV "Are you here to see my Luna?" Nick asked Mrs Wolfe. He still held Sara's hand as they continued down the stairs. Then his cellphone began to ring. "Oh, yes, Alpha," she replied. "Although, I was looking for Richie, too. I heard he came here." "Is it urgent? I'm afraid you may have
Richard POV Tessa was still sitting with her head bowed when Nick opened the door and came out. I could tell how scared she was. I wanted to go in at once, but the Alpha was in the way. The doorway suddenly felt crowded as Jake followed behind seconds later. "Do you want me in there with you?" As
"You called me Alpha. I'm not your Alpha." I kept my head down "Do you know how he died?" He asked. "In battle." "Do you know who killed him?" The calmness slipped off his tone. "You? I think..." "That's right," he remarked. "I killed Lazarus Kai. Your birth father." The room went sile
Tessa POV Alpha Nick did not show up the same day as Jake. I sat, stood, paced about the room waiting for him. It's not like I was eager to see the Alpha who considered me his enemy. In fact, it was the opposite. I would skip that particular one-on-one if I had a choice. I only needed him to come
I asked other questions relating to Tessa and her childhood. His answers didn't give me the slightest comfort. I didn't know what questions could possibly generate answers that could ease the ache in my heart. Maybe nothing could relieve me. I wanted to see her desperately. But I also didn't want t
Richard POV When I reached the apartment block where Tessa used to live, the voices coming from the building made me stop. "I'm not surprised at all," said a not-so-familiar voice. "I always get a different vibe around her." "Lemme tell you what's different about her vibe, Koda," replied anothe
