I awaken to the sound of echoes around me, not my usual bird sound alarm clock.I try to move but arms lay heavy on me, a familiar scent enveloping the entirety of me. One. Two. Three....fifteen. It takes me fifteen minutes before my eyes fly open at the realization of what—who that scent is associated to. Knox.With my heart pounding, I slowly veer beside me only to be met by the crook of his neck in my midsection.It's a dream right? It has to be, Knox can't be here with me, much less naked underneath the covers. I must have fallen asleep on the plane to Cassidy's bachelorette party...the party, no I already went. My memory seems to have hazed, with only the glares Knox shot at me emerging clear. I instantly lift his arm off me, careful not to wake him for obvious reasons. I notice my clothes are discarded near the bed with his at the door. "Run." His voice echoes my mind along with flashes of the entire night hitting me, worsening my headache. <

KNOX I don't know if Thalia has awakened yet but I do know she is in Victor's room still. Ryan and everyone else stayed with her while I tended to Arabella. Seeing Thalia collapse in front of her scared her, and she had been asking if the woman was okay so I lied, I said yes despite not knowing. Mariella is pacing around the room while Arabella watches a cartoon on the television. “Quit pacing.” I order. “I can't, I'm nervous. That was Thalia, and she fainted when she saw Bella.” “Don't use my daughter's name in the same sentence as Thalia's name.” I warn. My tone seems to startle her despite the calm I'm portraying. “You saw the way she looked at her, she demanded her baby. Alpha Knox, what if she kidnaps Venus?” “She wouldn't dare.” I frown, I for certain that Thalia would never kidnap my daughter, and even if she did, I would ensure she lives to regret it. “She's crazy, I don't want this to affect Bella. I knew one day they would meet but I didn't think it would be th

THALIA I should have left when I got the chance but now, here I am spending time with my ex's fiance who happens to be my best friend. Not only that, but they both got to see me at my worst, having the worst panic attack I've had in years. So it's back to therapy for me, at least until I can hold my emotions again, which I was sure I could up until this morning. I've not asked her anything, but she's been talking nonstop, trying to engage me in conversation like the last four years didn't happen, like I didn't fuck her fiance all the way into this morning. Does she know? Surely, everyone here knows, my scent might be subtle on him but it's there, it'll linger for a bit longer just as Knox's scent lives on me, masking my own. “I wish you would have been there, it was amazing and it's where Knox proposed. I was a bit freaked out but he said he knew I was his last.” she grins, toying with her ring. Yes, I've noticed the large rock on her finger. It's hard to miss not because

Cassidy nods, Okay. You slept with Knox.” she nearly shouts, her lips stretching into a grin. “I was drunk.” I promptly protest. “Right ” she laughs, “Let's blame the alcohol for how you basically dry humped each other in the car.” “How could you let me do that?” “Me?” she snorts. “I tried to get you to come with me but you insisted. Hell, you left my bed to fuck him.” “Drunk decisions.” I shake my head. “This is why I don't drink. Keir will be livid when he finds out about this.” “Don't tell him!" She sits up, shaking her head. “Keir doesn't have to know.” “I can't lie to him.” “Okay, since you can't lie, tell me who's better in bed.” she grins, on the verge of absolute laughter “I'm not answering that.” I roll my eyes, now comparing the two in my head but if I'm being honest? Knox is incomparable, not only was he my first, but he just knows my body and better than Keir or any man ever will. And trust me, the orgasms are better when he fucks your senses too

“What?” I ask when I notice Ryan staring at me.“Nothing, just wondering if Bella knows daddy was putting in the hard work it takes to make a baby with-”“I swear to God, if you say her name..” I trail off on a warning.He feigns a gasp. “I thought we were allowed to say her name now.”“I see you ran into Nova.”“Yes, but do enlighten me.”“She walked in when Mariella was confronting me for fucking Thalia, something I don't even remember doing, mostly.”“And do you want to remember?” he studies me, “I can help you. The owner of the house we lived in has surveillance cameras around the house for security purposes when it's empty and you accidentally activated one.”“What?”Ryan nods, “Yeah. You and Thalia featured in what Cassidy and Sarang called Pornhubs finest material.”“You're shitting me.” My eyebrow lifts, but there's not a single hint of humor on his face. He grabs his phone and turns it towards me, on it an image of Thalia appears. She's laying down with me between her legs, m

MARIELLA I stare at the women organizing pack house groceries, and I can't help but smile at the sight. They'll do anything I ask, that too to my liking because it's easier to please me than get on my bad side. That too, a side I don't have, I'm an exemplary mate and woman, as well as a mother in the eyes of all these women. Ever since Knox put the huge diamond on my hand, they've been extra nice to me but I choose to be unbiased unless otherwise. My two friends, loyal as a dog sit with me. We've been friends since Thalia left the pack grounds, it was hard to connect with someone else because I dedicated my whole life to Thalia, but thankfully that's no longer the case. I've not heard or dealt with her for four years, and I refuse to do it now. “Do you think you can change the criteria for qualifications?” Kennedy asks me, a topic we've tackled more than once but this time I'm more confident in my ability to make things happen to my liking around her

“Mommy made Auntie Mariella cry.” Katie points to me “Nova, apologize.” Knox orders, his tone calm, too relaxed. Nova crosses her arms over her chest. “Excuse me? I will do no such thing.” “It's fine, I don't need her apology.” I wipe my tears, watching Knox. “She will apologize.” Nova rolls her eyes, “I'm sorry, Mariella.” “Mommy, ”Bella tugs at my dress. “So now you forgive her.” Just as I'm starting to enjoy how stupid Nova looks, she speaks again. “I'm sorry I called you out for being the shitpiece you are, and oh knox? She'll never be my Luna.” “Mariella will be my Luna, which makes her rank higher than yours and you might not like it but that's happening and I suggest you lose that attitude you have towards her.” Knox warns her, and I've never felt as satisfied as I do at this moment. “Knox, don't fight with her because of me.” I tug at his arm. Nova gasps, “She's so fake, I could tear you apart if my niece wasn't fond of her but you know what? F. U

“Are you scared of him?” His head tilts, studying me.” “No?” I nearly whisper. “Not really, I just don't think it's wise to poke the bear and-” “It's time you buried the past if not confronted it.” Eliza interrupts my forged explanation. “You can't run the rest of your life simply because of something you had no control over.” I pause, she's right. It's been four years, but I can't just forget what I did. I killed Arabella Venus, I hurt Knox and his anger is justifiable but I also can't run from him my whole life. Then again, there's no shame in running, I've hidden just fine these past three years so I don't see the need to toss myself back into the lion's den. Or maybe this is what we both need, perhaps I need to let him hurt me to lessen the incurable blow of losing our daughter. And I too need him to hurt me, to chastise me for what I did until the numbness I crave finally hits me. “Rose?” Eliza calls out, her voice distant but clear. I quickly snap out of my daze an

“I'm not, I'm just worried seeing him might blur some lines for you. Especially with-” “Knox.” she warns, “I'm married. In case you didn't notice, I've moved on. Sure I loved him but I'm in no position to feel anything other than humanity for him and any other man. What happened was my fault, I made those stupid decisions but I'm fine now. You need to let it go, it's not your place to hold such against him. Ezra is a very nice guy.” “Nice my ass.” I snort, keeping my eyes on the road. He would flaunt other women whenever they would fight and she thinks of him as nice. “It's very nice that you left things in the past but Amelia, I'll never forget the sight of my older sister hooked to those hospital machines, fighting for her life.” “Again. Nothing to do with Ezra.” she nearly yells. “I did everything because I was troubled, my mental capacity was nothing short of insane. Ezra finding his mate was just an excuse to spiral.” Ryan sighs. “He still hates him.” “You fucked h

KNOXI'm a mess.My bond to Thalia is trying to overpower my hatred for her but unlike four years ago, I'm a rational man. I can't let her get to me, not after what she did to my daughter, it's not unheard of for some women to behave that way towards their pups but I didn't foresee that from Thalia. Even now, she plays nice with children, confusing me even more. I can't wreck my brain thinking why she did it because the last time I did, it nearly cost me my pack, and my people's lives. Thalia all that, my enemies knew I was weakened in a way, and every life that was lost while I was drinking and cussing her name weighs heavy on my conscience. There's something about the way she acts that makes me lose my sanity, all logic, it all gets blinded by something. It's like she's fragile, yes that's it, that's how she lures me in. Just like two nights ago at Ryan's birthday party, she appeals to my Alpha nature and I stupidly fall for it, I'm a sucker for the way I could effortlessly bring

“Run?” I turn around to find Beta standing behind me. “Hi,” I nervously laugh. “Great party huh?” “It would be if you weren't running from me.” “I wasn't, you were busy and my job was done the second you were surprised.” He nods, watching me. “So you hang out with me because Nova asked?" “Yes and no.” “Help me understand Amara, I'm not too good at this type of thing.” Cute, he must be bluffing because he's very popular with the ladies. “I did it because I like hanging out with you.” “Why?” he asks, his lips twitching with a smile. My cheeks heat up as I find the courage to look him in the eye again. “You know why.” “Hmm, but I need you to say it, sweetheart.” Ugh, moon goddess, this man. You did your triple big one with him, there's no faults to him even his pushing me to admit my feelings is insanely attractive. “Because I like you, Ryan.” This time, he grins, his gaze searching mine and I can guess his next word before he speaks. “Why?” “Oh, you're maki
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 50: Happy Birthday, Beta
My heart does this thing where I feel like I might die from too much excitement but it only makes me weak in the knees. She claimed me, she called me hers and I would love nothing more than for her to be serious about that statement. Nikolai frowns, “Come on, share the good guy.” “No. We are leaving before you infect him with loser. “I'll see you tomorrow night?” No, what's tomorrow night and why is he saying it with that wide smile? “Yes, I love you.” she smiles, going in for the hug he begged for earlier. My heart is shuttered, until he speaks, leaving me speechless. “Love you too lil sis.” His sister, that explains a lot—Not. If Niko has zero ops, then Amara must be dead and if he has a hundred then trust Amara recruited ninety-nine more. “Ryan, he reaches for my shoulder but Amara is quick to seat it away. “Don't touch him, Niko. You already got me one for three.” Nikolai smirks, “Ryan if you're being threatened to hang out with this menace, let me know. You're officiall
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 49: The one where Beta falls
RyanThis might just be one of my core memories, I initially planned to seek Amara out at the game but sitting next to her? Premium experience.Tearing up my tickets was the best thing Arabella Venus and Katie Rose have ever done for me, it not only provided me with a reasonable excuse to give my buddies, but it put me in the best seat in the house, right next to Amara.This town is the primary Vulture fan club, so that puts Amara in the 0.8 percentile of people who hate the club. Still, that didn't make her shy away from yelling, screaming, and bullying the Vultures each time they scored. Nikolai, the star of today's match was her biggest victim, she nagged, called his tricks sheer luck, and booed at his every score and honestly it was so hot to watch. Much to her dismay, my team beat hers by a whopping six points but it didn't affect her mood, she has been invariably cheerful.“Do you want to go ?” I nudge her, watching the way she peeks at the queue to the locker rooms.“No,” she
Alpha's Regret: His Betrayed Luna Chapter 48: Drunken Truths
MARIELLA Alpha has been ignoring my calls, and Arabella is restless, awaking every half hour if not an hour at best to ask if her daddy is home yet. This has made it hard for me to fall asleep either because she comes looking for me to ask again and again. Nobody knows where he is, and this isn't the first time this has happened so I sit in the dimly lit kitchen, scrolling through my phone with a cup of coffee in hand to reward myself for putting Bella to sleep for over an hour now. It's nearly four in the morning, maybe I can go back to sleep, but I can't risk being awakened by loud sobbing at my bedside. My lips stretch into a wide grin, my cheeks undoubtedly flushed from the dirty thoughts I get looking at a picture of Alpha Knox, shirtless. The creaking sound of the kitchen door opening wipes my smile away, my hand grips my mug tighter, ready to swing at the intruder but when I see him, my nerves calm immediately. He doesn't notice me, I watch him stagger as he enters the

“Not particularly, I just meant that—” Ryan chuckles, winking at me, “I'm kidding.” “You know, the downside of this efficient work you've accomplished is you won't have anything to do for the next two months. Our schedule was cleared for at least seven months.” Amara reminds me, of a detail I missed when I was plotting to complete the project fast enough to get me away from Knox and my bitter-sweet memories attached to Flame Valley. “I guess I'm finally taking time off work.” I shrug, the idea itself sounds ludicrous. If I'm not in a courtroom or handling legal aspects of our pack negotiations, who am I? Amara laughs, ostensibly unconvinced. “Oh please, attorney T.R Laurel doesn't rest. You'd work in your sleep, let's face it, you're not normal.” “That's not true,” I frown. “I know how to be normal.” “Rose, you work on your off days.” she sighs, leaning back in her seat. “You're the prime definition of a workaholic. Pull up a dictionary and there you are, at the top, and

THALIA I walk into the boardroom with supreme urgency, I shouldn't be here but Alpha Ezra canceled because Luna Serenity got worse. Everyone from Flame Valley is in their seats when we arrive, but none of them expect to see me but Knox seems pissed at my presence and it's not because I'm nowhere dressed for the meeting. “Good afternoon, all.” Amara greets, settling down beside me. “Sorry, I'm late. Shall we start?” “Where's Alpha Ezra?” I don't look at him as I answer, “He had an emergency so I'll be substituting for him.” “An emergency?” he scoffs, “He should have communicated with me before resorting to—” “His wife is sick, you insensitive psycho.” I snap, my tone surprising even myself. He's not here because he didn't want to cancel yet again.” Ryan clears his throat, “I'll get the projector.” “Thank you, Ry.” I smile, my voice much softer and calmer as opposed to when I spoke to Knox. Ryan leaves, and Amara gets to work on connecting with the rest of our team

Mariella’s lip curls up with contempt, “You look lovely, princess.” she feigns a smile. “You did so good, Arabella.” Nova praises. “I'm sorry I made a fuss.” she pouts, looking up at Rose.” “It's okay, I know you were scared but you need to remember that even if it seems like a bad day, you'll be fine, smile and keep your chin up because when the sun comes up tomorrow, it'll be a new day.” Arabella nods vigorously, “Okay, auntie.” “Mommy, can we surprise Daddy with my hair?” Katie Rose asks Nova. “Yep, I'll call him when he's out of surgery.” Nova smiles, petting her head. “Is he okay?” I frown. “Yes, he's the surgeon.” Nova laughs, noting my confusion. “Er, so what are we doing next?” “Thalia and I were going to get our nails done.” I tell her, “We want to look deadly in court.” “That's great, Mariella you could use a new set.” Nova’s head tilts, looking at Mariella's nails. Mariella glares at her, “This is new.” “It's pretty. “ Rose smiles. Nova shrugs, her eyes twin

AMARAThalia and I are getting our hair done in preparation for tomorrow's meeting, she went first and immediately buried her nose in a gossip magazine. I'm checking my hairstyle when a familiar face pops up behind me in the mirror.“Nova!” I call out, whirling around. My squeal alerts Thalia too.Nova smiles, waving at me while the little girls with her squeal. “Hi, Amara.”“Auntie Thalia Rose!” both girls scream, running to meet her.“hi, darlings,” Thalia matches their excitement. “I love your matching dresses.”“Thank you,” they say in unison, hugging Thalia. I turn my attention to the Thalia lookalike. “Hello.” she grins, looking even more like Thalia.“Amara, this is Mariella, Knox's finance, his kid. My kid.” Nova tells me, gesturing to each individual. My gaze gets stuck on the kids, one looks very much like Thalia.“Say hi to my friend.” Thalia prompts.Nova's daughter stares between us, scratching her head. “Are you a lawyer too?”“Yes.”“Cool.” They both swoon, “I'm Katie R
