It came as no surprise that Lorenzo and I were summoned once again to the palace on such short, immediate notice. Ever since the official story came out in the papers, regarding Lucy Grant’s death, it was only a matter of time before the Lycan Luna would’ve tried to reach out again. Of course, I a
The ride back to the house was, indeed, awkward. But that was mainly because I felt like I was missing a large chunk of the information that was being exchanged between Lorenzo and the Lycan Luna.After our strenuous interaction with the prince, whom I was thoroughly convinced was going to ultimatel
It was the night of the Blue Moon’s Semi-Annual Auction event. So far, everything Lorenzo had planned out for the evening had gone according to plan. He had a special dress made and delivered to the house to surprise Eleanor along with a match sapphire set of jewels to accompany the ensemble.He als
Even though Lorenzo had gone into great detail, trying to outline tonight’s plan, I was still feeling a bit hesitant about a few things. For instance, what if someone did manage to outbid Lorenzo on whatever item he was meant to be bidding on? What if Cruz’s brother didn’t give the exact reaction ev
I was practically sitting on the very edge of my seat as the room became swept up in the most intense round of bidding yet. My nails were biting viciously into my thighs as Lorenzo continued to place his higher bid on the necklace.It was a tight match, but ultimately all of his other opponents drop
It shouldn’t have surprised me when I read the headlines the following week after that fateful night at the Blue Moon Auction House. It was clear evidence that Cruz and Lorenzo’s plan had, undoubtedly, gone off without a single hitch.‘The Alpha of Blue Moon has led his pack into hefty bankruptcy!’
Lorenzo did regret it. Horribly.He’d never thought he’d see the day when he wished he had listened to Cruz Sterling and headed his warning. Some things were never meant to see the light of day and that one single piece of purposely left-out evidence fell into that category, without a doubt.After L
‘Something is going on with Lorenzo,’ I thought to myself. ‘I can feel it.’Ever since Cruz had been decent enough to send over that odd envelope to the house, I’ve noticed how strangely Lorenzo had been acting since then. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but things just haven’t been the same between
A few weeks later...Once Lorenzo was cleared to return home and was feeling like his old self again, he and I were finally able to commit to our bonding ceremony. It was a gorgeous summer day, the back courtyard was swimming with flowers and white ribbons.Of course, due to the sudden delay of the
The hospital, as expected, was crowded with numerous people. Doctors and nurses were whisking around to get to their designated destinations with determined haste. Thankfully, Lorezno was able to get admitted as soon as we arrived.A small medical team rushed to our sides, needing to know what happe
“Lorenzo!” Eleanor cried out with an astonished look on her face.The alpha managed to follow Eleanor’s scent through the building. When he finally broke through the various barriers, he came upon a dingy-looking door. The second he heard her distressed cry, Lorenzo smashed the door off its hinges.
Lorenzo’s patience was already wearing thin from his prior conversation with the Lycan King. Part of him still didn’t want to believe half of the information that he’d been told. But, in truth what would the King have to gain from lying to him now?But now it seemed that the alpha had much more dist
It hadn’t escaped my notice how quickly Lorenzo made his mad dash to the door as soon as that message came in from Adeline. The man hadn’t even given me a legitimate answer as to why he was going to the palace.Yes, he mentioned that he was going to see the Lycan Luna—but for what?Lorenzo knew how
“You said what?!” I shouted frantically.Lorenzo had been gradually pacing the length of the study for the last several minutes. He barely spared me a single glance as he told me of his late-night call with Cruz.In the beginning, I felt rather smug about the fact that Sterling was feeling horribly
Lorenzo knew he should have left the flash drive alone. With the ceremony just two days away, there was no reason why he needed to keep revisiting those damn files. What did he expect to find? What was he hoping to further gain?He wasn’t sure—and that was what was driving him crazy. Curiosity had t
Ever since Cruz spoke with Eleanor in the middle of her dress-fitting, he was feeling rather chipper with himself. He truly believed that he’d gained the upper hand when it came to placing a true divide within Lorenzo and Eleanor’s relationship.Having planted that terrible thought in Eleanor’s head
“But, Lorenzo, hear me out!” I shouted from across the study. “You know it would be a smart choice than to wait any longer.”Lorenzo planted a firm hand on his hip and gave me a stern, disapproving look. “Eleanor, for Christ’s sake, be reasonable. Please.”Ever since he and I discovered the hidden f
