[Silas’s POV]"That soon?" Lennox frowned. "Why so soon?""Because that was the earliest time that my cousin suggested." I shrugged. "Anyway, isn’t it better to not put off what can be done today?""I guess.""Now, do you have any other questions for me?"I waited as Lennox’s brows furrowed together
"Arch your back more." I continued, grabbing her hips and positioning myself. "Yes, just like that."Once she was in position, I shoved in, letting Lennox fully take me before beginning to move."Ah, Silas!" She whimpered, suddenly squeezing me. "That feels…fuck."Smirking, I began to move faster, f
[Silas’s POV]"I said it earlier, but my mother was a member of Midnight Rose before she found my father." I began, readying myself for whatever reaction I may receive. "She was the sister of the previous alpha and a Lancaster. Not many know, but there is a dark secret amongst the Lancasters."Growi
[Lennox’s POV]The next day came much too quickly for my liking. After being kept up for most of the night by Silas’s insatiable need for physical touch, I had hoped to sleep in. However, that was impossible given the gravity of the visit we would be paying later in the day.According to Silas, ther
[Lennox’s POV]"Surprised?" Vince asked, breaking the silence that had fallen around us. "You see, Hana asked me not to tell you."Hana.Shock rolled through me as I realized that she was the woman that Silas had loved in the past. What were the actual chances of something like this happening? We we
[Lennox’s POV]"Did you just say?" Hana gasped, slowly regaining her composure. "Mate?""I did."If Hana wanted to sit here and pretend to be Silas’s one true love, then I would happily crush that hope. Maybe he was hers in the past, but from here on out, he would be mine, and I would be damned if I
[Silas’s POV]I kept my expression neutral as Vince tried to determine if what I had just said was true or not. For me, this was enough to show that he was definitely guilty of something, but I couldn’t let him know that I was already on to him. For now, I needed him to continue with his attacks unt
[Silas’s POV]"Come on." Lennox insisted, holding out her hand for Grandma to take. "It’s time to go."Nodding, Grandma began to move but stopped as the sound of a chain rattling filled the room. Frowning, she looked down at her ankle and took in the cuff that wrapped around it."Can’t," she murmure
Nodding, I take a deep breath and rush to Ayla’s side while Gwen begins the operation, and after a few minutes have passed, I hear a shriek fill the air before she is lifting a tiny creature into the air and handing it over to Brian to clean while she cuts the bloody cord attached.Once she is finis
[Aera’s POV]9 months Late"Mmm, Aera, right there."Ayla’s voice echoes around me, spurring my movements even more. Knowing she was enjoying what I was doing to her was all the encouragement I needed."Ah!" she gasps, leaning more into the chair in front of her. "Not so hard."Chuckling, I lean for
When I reach my parents, their faces fill with relief, and I feel my heart squeeze. Even though they hadn’t spoken a word about everything that happened, I was sure that they were now expecting me to snap at any given second. I still had a lot of making up to do in order to gain everyone’s trust an
[Celia’s POV] I stare up into Alphonze’s dark, unreadable eyes while trying to figure out exactly what I was feeling. Was I just caught by surprise because he suddenly appeared, and that was why I suddenly felt jittery and my heart was racing? Right, that had to be it; there couldn’t be anything e
This had been proof to me that we were intended to be together since we didn’t meet just once by chance but twice.After that, I approached her and began to woo her since I couldn’t stand the thought of losing her. It was a love that I never imagined could exist, let alone for me, but she made me so
[Alphonze’s POV]I stand to the side, watching as everyone present for the evening enjoys themselves, laughing, dancing, and being merry. It had been a while since I had attended something like this, so it was taking a bit to get used to it again.The last time I came to a full moon ball was when I
"It seems that your date for this evening has arrived," Alphonze announces, clapping me on the shoulder. "I wouldn’t distract you any longer."Nodding, I give him a look and don’t miss the sorrow that flashes in his eyes as he looks from Ayla to me."Hold on as tight as you can because you never kno
[Aera's POV]Soft music drifts toward me as I stand to the side of the large ballroom, waiting for my date to arrive.Despite all the chaos that had been happening in our world, Silas and Alphonze insisted that we have a small, intimate gathering for the full moon as a way to relax and unwind after
[Ayla's POV]The next day, I sit in the passenger seat of Aera's car, staring at Crimsone Tides Estate while fighting the urge to run away. When I entered that building, I'd be making the toughest decision of my life, and I wasn't exactly sure if I was ready.Beside me, Aera remains silent while hol
