“Are you for real?!” I found myself roaring, knowing then Zion was involved now too. This was not going to end well if Caleb got angry.Caleb raised his brows at me, “Really?” he snarled. “Do I not have the right to be concerned for my friend and if I think you aren’t able to do your job, then too f
I strolled through the pack enjoying the late afternoon sunshine, wasting the last of my days before my start at school. I could not wait now. I was so excited about starting my new role. I was getting good at finding my way around the pack now too, with Akira’s assistance, albeit, but I was getting
“Who is there?” a deep male voice demanded, angrily.My head felt fuzzy, while my heart raced. Surely a rogue wouldn’t demand you identify yourself, would they? Either way, my mouth did not seem capable of working right now. I was struggling to breathe, let alone speak, as I was so panicked. Suddenl
I had no choice but to accept the help of the most irritating man ever, and we were walking through the forest together. He stomped heavily through the trees, evidently knowing where he was going. Which I could not lie, was definitely a good thing, because without Akira here with me, I had no clue w
I saw the disgust in Bailey’s eyes at my initial comment, but the disgust soon turned to pain at my sly dig. I don’t even know where it came from… I was awaiting a sarcastic reaction from her like previously before. She seemed good at them, but then I saw the tears building in her eyes and she quick
He chuckled. “Cheers, bro.” he nudged me with his elbow. “But incidentally, as cute as she may be, I genuinely found her in the forest. She was running away from me. I think I scared the poor little thing, she tripped up. I didn’t know who she was because I didn’t recognize her. When she introduced
I had spent the rest of the day alone in my room. The incident with the Beta caused me to feel the need to curl up in bed. I wanted to be alone. I had been struggling with the thought of Harley finding his fated mate. I know it was crazy. It truly felt like I had suffered a major loss… yet he was ne
Thankfully, Akira had been partially alert and had helped me land in such a way that I had landed on my butt rather than my neck or anywhere else that would cause serious injury, because falling from that high up could have caused some serious injury. But still the pain radiating up my back was not
Epilogue - Asher 7 months later “Asher, I hate you!” Bailey screamed, as she laid on the hospital bed, writhing in pain. And Zion chuckled in glee at the insults my mate was throwing my way, not to mention the pain she was inflicting upon me as she gripped my hand through each contraction. He seemed to be seriously enjoying my suffering... “Is she meant to be this angry?” I muttered to one of the nurses, who looked at me with her eyebrows raised like I was some sort of monster. Okay, maybe I would just sit quietly. Now I seemed to have angered the nurse as well as my mate... Zion once more was laughing. ‘Not so good at this are you?’ he teased. ‘Oh, big shot, Beta.’ ‘You’re a Beta too, you freak.’ I snapped back, while my eyes met Bailey’s and, quite honestly, she looked like she was possessed. ‘Can childbirth turn a woman into a demon?’ Zion asked me. ‘Because right about now she looks pretty freaky, and I do not mean in a good way, like, we about to get freaky sort of a way…’
Epilogue Bailey contd… Miles would no longer be involved in, anyway, shape or form with the Lotus Shadow Pack. His actions had well and truly severed all ties to his family and his pack. And, I have to say, I felt nothing towards him, no pity or anything. He deserved everything he got.“You two better not be holding us up because you couldn't resist ripping each other’s clothes off!” Morgan called through the door, so loud it was likely half the pack heard. “Open the door before she says anything else!” I warned Asher, and he chuckled. He may not have been keen on my sister when she first arrived, but now he was spending time with her and Marc on a more regular basis, he was getting used to her somewhat unique and quirky ways, and he actually found her quite amusing now. “Come on, we are going to be late!” Marc said as Asher opened the door. “Alpha and Luna are just putting the little ones in the car.” I walked to meet them at the front door, ready to make our departure to our form
Epilogue - Bailey… 4 months later I sat on the edge of our bed, nerves rushing through every part of my body, while Asher paced the floor in front of me before he looked down at me. In the whole time since we had officially become a couple, this was the first time I had felt so worried. I did not know how he would react when I told him the news, but now he was as nervous as I was. “Are you sure you did the test right?” he asked, his voice wobbling a little. “Can you do them wrong? You pee on it and wait, right?” I attempted to joke, but I genuinely didn’t think I had done it wrong. I just hated the wait… I had not felt right for a couple of weeks now, and had put it down to a virus going around school. It had not taken me long to go back to work after leaving the hospital after all the drama of the incident with Miles. And soon Asher and I had fallen into the routine of a couple, and I loved it. It was like we had always been together. His late night working sessions were a th
“Slow down, I don’t need you near falling over again.” I teased.‘Spoilsport.’ Akira joked. ‘I was looking forward to that.’I used the en suite shower room to take a shower, and get myself dressed into the clothes that my sister had thankfully dropped off for me, before we walked from the hospital
I woke up from snoozing, and found Asher crashed out in the chair next to my bed. He still had not left my side. Despite every reassuring word the doctor could give him, he had chosen not to leave me. We had marked one another last night, so were now officially mates, and I can only say it feels bey
“Hello?” Beta Donovan’s voice answered almost immediately, despite sounding sleepy, which was unsurprising given the hour. “Beta Asher, please do not tell me you are calling me to tell me something else has happened. Last update I had Bailey was stable. Has that changed?” he demanded before Bailey w
I could see Bailey’s eyes watching me as I told her I loved her, they flashed darker for a moment, and I caught sight of her canine teeth, taking me by surprise… was Akira deciding she wanted to mark me too? Was she even well enough? Strong enough after everything?‘Maybe us marking her did make her
“No. Bailey, you are making a mistake. You know that right?” Miles said coldly, trying to get my attention. I turned to look at him, shaking my head. He had a fucking nerve. I am making a mistake?“No. You were the mistake Miles. A mistake from the moon goddess when she fated me to you. Because that
I was never going to take the words of Miles as the truth. He never did speak the truth. I knew that. I saw the hurt upon Asher's face as I said I wanted to hear what Miles had to say, but, I wanted to hear what he had to say. I wanted to see if he would apologize to me. I felt I deserved an apology
