“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
My eyes followed the girl as she walked bare feet past the hackberry trees, then into the street. I didn't know when I turned around and started to follow her. I should wake her up. But how? I was in my wolf form. Shifting meant I would be stark naked. What would she think of that once she came aw
Ten minutes later, I stood with my back to the door inside Nick's large office at the resort. He didn't come in here except strictly to deal with resort business. With my hands crossed behind my ass, I perched against the door, waiting to learn more about the guests. 'You don't look alright. Are yo
Rowan must have gotten the girl back home by now. Was she safely on her bed at this moment? Maybe she woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. I wish there was someone to call and find out. Jethro's tale grew interesting, and my attention slowly zeroed in on him. It was not news that the former Luna
It was clear that Nick wanted to take my side, but the male was right. The discussion ended only moments ago. No one had forgotten what was said. Nick watched me with a frown as he asked, 'Do I know this drunk, half she-wolf?' 'I-i don't know. Maybe you do.' At least, that was only half a lie.
Jane POV "Contact lens my a$$," I muttered. Reaching for my mobile phone, I opened my call log and tapped the dial icon, calling the one person I was starting to depend on. She picked up on the fourth ring. "Having fun, huh," I drawled. "I am so mad at you right now, gurl. How can you be out of
The male was someone I had never seen before. As my eyes settled on his face, the wind played with his thick brown curls. He had a cool southern vibe about him with his dark golden skin and full lips. It felt like I knew him from long ago. A sense of dejavu rose inside me as I regarded him. It occu
"I don't need your help," I said lamely. This mysterious man saw me in my most embarrassing state. I felt ashamed and upset. He nodded like he agreed, but I could sense the sarcasm in that simple gesture. The man was upsetting. Scratch that. My body's reaction to those broad, imposing shoulders, t
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
