Tessa POV Thankfully, I wasn't in the bathroom long enough for Fiona to miss me. That didn't change the fact that I was probably in bigger trouble than I'd gotten myself a few days ago. Five minutes after resuming my cleaning, she signalled for me to stop. "Only because I don't wanna be here righ
Morning came sooner than I wanted it to. Though it was a new day, I was filled with anxiety about the result of yesterday's errors. I had very little sleep and had only began to doze off when the first light of dawn poured in through the small window. I heard whispers outside as a male came to relie
Tessa POV My fears dissolved when I saw Vivi and Peyton emerged from their rooms too. Either the two also did something wrong or I had nothing fear. The bags they carried meant that I was not the only one getting moved out of here. I avoided looking directly at Richard as much as I could. When my
"I'm not a spy, Chief," I said earnestly. "You saw me that day, remember?" "Which day? Same day that warrior attacked you over a scent blocker?" "He didn't attack me because of the scent blocker. He propositioned me before then and I refused. He attacked me earlier that day too. Kev, I mean... the
Kevin Kevin Fox always comsidered himself a proud male of worth. Any other wolf, for instance, Curtis Burns, would have continued to pretend they didn't know Tessa Nile. Not only was she of low birth, but she belonged to the class of wolves that people like him didn't publicly associate with. How
"She had to start work immediately cuz she kept making trouble! I'm not sure where they took her, but she should be back before nightfall." "I see. Thanks." What kind of trouble? Tessa was a docile she-wolf. Was it outside the pack or within. Looking for her was bad enough. He didn't want the Liv
Richard POV The Avalanche Night Club was not directly affiliated with Reigns Group. It was a child of one of the pack's retail subsidiaries. Nick always hated the place because she-wolves worked there sometimes. The type of females that tripped over themselves at the sight of an Alpha or any othe
I took a sip from my glass and refocused on the girl before me. Perfect body. This should erase all images of the stray wolf from my head once and for all. Peyton Day. That omega was brought in with her. According to him, the two of them did serve the Fox's household. Two orphans. "Will you lik
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
