[Lennox’s POV]Pregnant.Did Brian really just say that I was pregnant? And did that mean that grandma was right about there being not one but two babies? My head was beginning to spin, and the nausea I was feeling seemed to increase tenfold as my nerves mixed in with it."I would recommend you not
[Silas’s POV]I stared up at the large house that was brightly lit and decorated for the grand occasion of the evening. The night of the full moon ball had finally come, and despite my many attempts at convincing Lennox to stay back, she stood beside me taking in the scene with an expression that I
"The puzzle," Aera tried, his look of excitement quickly turning to one of disappointment."You heard your brother." Hubert snapped, grabbing the boy's arm. "You don’t belong here. GET!"Frowning, I felt something in me stir as I took in the scene."You shouldn’t speak to a child like that." Lennox
[Lennox’s POV] "Do you think it involves Hana?" I asked quietly. "I don’t think so." Silas responded, beginning to relax. "And," he continued, reaching out and touching my cheek. "You shouldn’t worry yourself about my problems. All you should focus on this evening is looking beautiful and preparin
[Lennox’s POV]"I’ll be damned if anyone touches me!" I snarled, kicking out and connecting with whoever was close enough to touch. "I’m not some damned damsel that needs protecting!"Finally, the dizziness was beginning to subside thanks to my healing being sped up by all the treatments I received
[Silas’s POV]I kept my gaze fixed on Lennox’s retreating form until it disappeared inside the mansion. Only once I was sure that she was out of harm's way did I begin to shift and join the battle that was beginning to break out all around the garden.Lycans… There were actual fucking lycans crashin
[Silas’s POV]Later, I sat in Alphonze’s medical wing while his men worked to clean and heal Christian’s wound. Lennox had already been examined and deemed fine, but before we left, I wanted to make sure that my Delta would make it through. He was in his current position because he put his life on t
[Lennox’s POV]I cuddled up against Silas’ side as silence fell around us. Since climbing into Alphonze’s personal limo, no one had spoken a word. Honestly, I didn’t really blame them either, not after what we had all gone through.With each minute that passed, I could feel my anxiety growing more a
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
