His hold softened as both hands traveled downwards to circle my waist. The kiss was no longer a battle, yet it had grown more intense. A moment ago, I had been seething with anger at his blatant rejection. Now, I could not stop myself from arching unto him while one hand travelled upwards to cup m
His face twisted, and his grip tightened. 'You are wicked.' "Stop, Richard..." I peeled his hands off of me. Damn, I was madly aroused, yet deeply satisfied with the desire I had evoked in him. His eyes were hooded as a low growl escaped his throat, resonating all around the vast office. Then,
A few dangerous thoughts fleeted past my mind as the girl approached. One of them included a powerful urge to stand in her way. To block her from walking past me. Her destination had to be Richard's office and nowhere else. Because she was no warrior, and the offices felt empty at this time. Our ey
Kevin Kevin got to the door and began to reach for the knob when he discovered that something was not right. The air was as light and empty as ever, and he couldn't feel Tessa's presence. He sniffed in an attempt to catch a faint whiff of the fragrance that he knew so well. What greeted his nostr
"I see you have no idea what I'm talking about. Maybe I heard wrong. I thought she might be trying to get the Luna to sign the girl's file. Make her your "servant" or something. You know I don't mean regular servant, right? Actually, I thought she wanted to make her your breeder. I mean, she kept go
Richard POV If the look in Ivy Johnson's eyes was any indication, she knew Tessa did not come up here to run errands. And if she knew my scent by now, then she sure as hell knew that something happened between the girl and I. My chances with this chic were ruined. Again. But what did it mean for
"Is she the reason you never called?" Ivy asked. "I've been busy." "I know warriors hook up with the common ones from time to time. Stress relief or whatever. I'm not naive, Ric. She-wolves like me are supposed to focus on what's important. That's what I'm choosing to do. Now, you and I haven't st
Richard POV We had now joined the traffic. Cars honked. People moved hurriedly about. The look on Tessa's face was that of wonder as she gazed outside the window. Wolves like her learned about the human world through TV and the media. Humans were a sister species, so it was easy to quickly mix w
"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
Tessa POV "And you say Goddess can't be generous..." Alpha Nick's voice cut through the whispers. Followed by the Beta's. "I should've put money on this, damn it!" As much as people's voices rose all around us, out loud and in the mind realm, everything faded into the background as Richard wal
'Stay right there, Richard!' The Alpha's warning came through the mindlink, making me realize that I'd risen from the bench and was about to go to Tessa. 'Be patient,' he added. 'So we can get this over with.' It was Jane Carlisle who forced me to sit back down as she pulled me by my jacket. 'G
I had six cups of those in Nick's study. No effect. The doctor said he would return in two hours with the test results. Nothing would keep me here in this house until then. I would be in the House of Judgement then. At twenty minutes to sunset, I took the warm towel off my forehead and flung it
Kevin decided that the girl was mistaken. No. She was lying. People didn't get pregnant that fast and easy. "I can't smell it!" He said lamely. "Cuz it's twenty-three days and not eight weeks old yet!" She replied in an edge. All of the implications of the news hit Kevin one after the other as
Tessa would've agreed to be his mistress back then. She was humble and knew her place in the olden days. Not anymore though. Now, the girl was a proud she-wolf. Why? Because of the thieving Chief, that's why! He let her mingle with other proud, elite females. This new Tessa would demand to be the o
Kevin In the afternoon of the day of the full moon, Kevin decided to go to the Meat cafe to chill by himself. He needed some fresh air after hiding indoors out of shame for so long. They were no longer on house arrest. Though he and his mother weren't allowed outside the pack until the verdict was
