Nick POVIt’s been hours since Mariah was taken and we still haven’t found a single clue as to where she could be. My wolf is restless thinking of all the things that could be happening to our mate and pups. I have gathered all our pack warriors; Taylor also brought his pack warriors to help with the search. We had our warriors split into four groups of twenty to twenty-five warriors with Logan, Taylor, Josh and myself leading a group. My father and Mariah’s father wanted to join the search but I suggested that they stood here in case she was able to escape and gets home or if the kidnappers make contact. I need her parents’ home in case that’s the first place she goes. I also told them this could be a distraction and we can’t leave the pack unattended incase they come attack so we left warriors behind to watch the pack also. It took some convincing especially her father but thankfully her mother agreed and help me convince him to stay behind; he made me and Josh promise to keep them
Mariah's POVI wake up to a knock on my door (knock, knock)"Go away," I say to the person on the other side of the door. "Wake up, honey; today is the first day of your junior year. You don't want to be late," Mom says."Mom, five more minutes, please," I reply lazily."No, wake up, your Best Friend is waiting for you downstairs," Mom replies in a striker tone."ughhhh," I groan internally.My name is Mariah Cruz. I'm 17 years old and starting my junior year today. My Father, Mark Cruz, is the current Beta of our pack, The Royal Moon Pack, and my mother, Jennifer Diaz, is the Beta female. My Brother Josh Cruz is 18 years old and a senior in High School. He is training to become the next Beta when our Alpha, Jason Adams, decides to retire and hand the title to his eldest son, Nick Adams. Nick is 18 and is also a senior in high school. He is also my brother's best friend. Nick is the school's playboy, along with my brother. That's what happens when you still haven't found your mate.
Nick POVI pick up my best friend and his little sister, who don't look so little anymore. Damn, I think to myself, when did she get that beautiful body. Those big round breasts that look like they don't fit in my hands and that round perky ass. I could picture myself biting it. Fuck, what the hell am I thinking? My best friend Josh would kill me if he heard what I just thought about his sister.Driving to the school, I am urged to look at her through the view mirror. I see her look at me, and I wink at her, causing her to roll her eyes. I look away and smirk."So, how was training camp?" I hear my little sister say, and I raise my eyebrow.Since when is she interested in training camp? "Training was good. But I was dying to return to all the beautiful ladies," Josh says.And I see Rose blush through the view mirror.What the hell has gotten into her? I think to myself damn teenager hormones. I wonder if that's what happened with Mariah. I heard Josh beat the crap out of Jacob for s
Mariah POVI start walking away when I hear an annoying, pitchy voice calling Nick. I look back and see Mila running towards him."Babe, there you are," I hear Mila say.I roll my eyes, "I swear they are meant for each other, both annoying as hell," I laugh.I finally reach my classroom and peek through the door window that Mr. Villanueva already started the math lesson."Ughh, this asshole made me late," I groan."Are you going to stand there or come in, Ms. Cruz?" Mr. Villanueva says."Fuck, a great way to start the freaking school year," I think to myself as I'm walking in the classroom.The rest of the morning goes smoothly and fast. Now it's time for lunch. I put my things in the locker and headed to the cafeteria to meet with Rose and the others. I walk into the cafeteria and see none other than Alpha asshat kissing with someone that's not Mila. How can Mila stay with an annoying playboy like him? Then again, she is the same. Since they aren't mates, they don't mind sharing each
Nick POVI see her walking distracted, and I follow her. It's not like anyone would think anything about it. I have the same class she has. I see the coast is clear, and I catch up to her. I grab her neck from behind and slam her against the wall."What the fuck is your problem, Nick" she spits angrily."You are my problem," I reply, gripping her neck tighter."I did nothing to you; now unhand me," she says, her eyes blazing."You did more than nothing since when you flirt with guys?" I spit angrily.She looks at me confused, and pouts her lips. I can't help but lick my lips and wonder if her lips taste just as good as she smells. Her smell drives me crazy. Why does she have to smell like my two favorite fruits, pineapple and a hint of coconut? I look at her slowly. Damn, this woman is gorgeous, I think to myself while I admire her breasts. She takes me off my trans when she growls."I can flirt with whoever I want, Nick. I'm not your property." She yells.I close the distance between
Mariah POVI’m walking to the field, mad and confused. Who the hell does he think he is kissing and grabbing me like that? Ugh, I hate that my body reacted now it did. Stupid hormones. Fucking asshat Alpha, if he ever tries that again, I will chop his dick off. I tried to calm down before I arrived at the field. I can sense him behind me, and it only irritates me more. Sparring should help relieve some of this anger. I finally arrive at the field and see that many are sparring already.“You late Miss Cruz.” Mr. Peters says.“I’m sorry it won’t happen again,” I reply.“Find a partner and start sparring.” Mr. Peters says. “I’ll be her partner,” Logan says.I smile at him and walk towards him.“You, okay?” He asks worriedly.“I’m fine,” I say with a smile.“Okay, Ready? Don’t worry, I’ll take it easy on you.” He says with a smirk.I raise my eyebrow. “Don’t. I’m sure I can handle you.” I say with an innocent smile.We go to our spots, and we get ready to begin sparring. When I hear a lo
Mariah POVHeading out of the house, the first thing I noticed was that Nick switched cars. I must admit he has good taste for cars. He is now driving a White GMC. We reach the car, and when I get in, my best friend Rose sits on her phone. She is wearing a royal blue casual dress with some silver sandals. Her hair is in a high ponytail, and I can tell she is wearing some blue eye shadow, which she does only for special occasions. She is more of a nude-colored type of girl. We head to the party, and as we get close, we see a lot of cars in the driveway. We are now at the Silver Mountain pack, and the scenery is quite beautiful. Nick parks in one of the reserved parking for alphas, and we all get out of the car.“You guys made it,” Logan says. “You know we never miss a good party,” Josh replies.“Well, just head inside. Everyone is out in the back by the pool,” Logan says.“Alright, cool,” Nick replies.We head to the backyard, and what I see shocks me. The place is beautiful, from the
Nick POVI let her leave the bathroom, and I try to calm down. Fuck what is this woman doing to me? She drives me crazy. I take my shirt off, wait a few minutes, and head out of the bathroom to meet them at the pool. I walk down the stairs and lead to the back. I see them all leaning against the pool wall. Josh has Taylor on his left; next to him is my sister Rose, then Logan, and next to him is Mariah. I ball my fist, the bastard always behind her ass. I run and jump in the pool, splashing them. “Heyyy.” They yell in unison.I swim to them and stand next to Mariah. I smirk when I feel her stiffen next to me. She tries to move away, but I grab her thighs to stop her. She freezes in her spot, and I look at her and give her a smirk. Everyone is drinking and speaking except Mariah. “Cats got your tongue,” I whisper in her ear. “Nick,” she says warningly.I let go of her thigh and slowly moved my hand to the band of her bikini panty. I hear her breath hitch, and I’m satisfied with her
