“Are you okay?” Jace’s voice enters into my mind, his eyes similar to that of his brother’s concern. How long had a I spaced out for. How long had I allowed my mind to wander… “Yes…” Thankfully my voice sounds stronger in my mind than if I were to speak my answer. “Are you sure?” “I think I nee
~ Jace ~ This place feels different to me now. I feel less connected with it, which is odd because I hadn’t ever taken on the alpha title from Mum, and neither has Josie yet. Technically nothing has changed, I meant the same to the Clear Waters pack as I did a few days ago…but now as the alpha
“Here, that’s what online maps are for.” Jaxon passes me his tablet from behind the sofa, showing me a map of the Amber Desert area. He spends the next hour showing me possible areas of expansion, of where I could build a local town to maximise a stream of regular revenue that would benefit the pac
~ Cleo ~ “How much longer?” Ares’ long sigh only adds to my irritation. He was meant to be helping me, not moaning at me…which is all he has done since following me outside. “Why, got somewhere to be?” I pause, panting out as I try to catch my breath. “Yes, I want to swim.” “Ares, you are the
“You’ve blocked the memories of her.” I seethe out, what was he hiding. He looks into my eyes puzzled until I see realisation dawn upon his face. Whatever it is, it’s enough for him to hit the side of his head. “Shit, yes…but not for the reason you think. It’s not my story to tell. Cleo, you are m
~ Cleo ~ I was riding high off my post climax bliss until my hand pushes down on the door handle, where I enter the alpha office, to find Callie sitting down by the window. She shifts as she turns to find me entering, I think it’s the first time I have ever seen her lacking confidence. “Is
I appreciate her words, but she doesn’t know the story behind us, how for the last year I hadn’t even seen him. I hadn’t seen him since turning eighteen years old, I wouldn’t have recognised the mate bond without not seeing him. Just like I wouldn’t have done if my mate was a stranger to me. It
~ Jace ~ Today had been weighing heavily on all of our minds, the day we finally said goodbye to Aunt Alora. We all stood in silence, our head’s bowed as we stood on the beach, the golden sands underfoot as we gave thanks to the moon goddess. Gave thanks for her presence in our lives. Mum had
Now was the moment of trust, I had to trust Ozborne, he hadn’t let me down this far… “Can you handle this?” I place a pistol gun out to him, offering it out for him to use. “Yes Alpha.” He takes it, examining the piece before removing the barrell and checking the number of bullets it was loaded w
~ Jace ~ Jaxon and I had driven throughout the night, heading up towards the mountainous region that in truth was a well known rogue area. A place that if you were in a pack, you didn’t tend to visit, and for good reason. Rogue life was deadly, vicious and cruel. One day you might be a ruler, th
Again the move not going unnoticed by him, or my own father. Who takes a step forward, his alpha aura pushing forward and mixing with mine. A smirk finally forms in the corner of the lips of this Alpha Darnell. His lips spreading out further into a devious smile before he pulls his aura back com
~ Cleo ~ I follow Callie into the alpha house, the internal design reminding me of the alpha house back at the Amber Desert pack. A lot of dark colours, riches on display to remind pack members of the hierarchy and where they belong in it. Perhaps Medea and Louise had a lot in common. “We
“Yes sir, born and raised. ” “You don’t smell like a rogue.” I comment. “Jace kind of made the beach club into a little pack, I guess I get away with it on a technicality.” He lifts his fingers into the air, making a quotation movement with both hands. “So what’s with the hat…and the whistle
~ Cleo ~ “We arent looking for trouble Dad. I just don’t feel comfortable letting Callie go alone. If Jace was here, he would go with her. They won’t do anything with another pack’s luna around. Besides, Ares is coming with us.” Dad blocks the very vehicle that Callie and I both plan to take.
I was different now, not only was I a marked woman…I was a Luna. I had a new strength from within me. The pack needs me to remain strong, which is why I have decided to return back today. The Varon’s still needed space to mourn and my own parents wanted to also give them time alone. Especially Kai
~ Cleo ~ We were at the end of the bed, just holding one another. Just inhaling each other’s scents. He had to leave, I know he does…but I can’t let him go. I can’t let go. “Please be careful.” I whisper into his ear, dropping my walls so that he could feel my anxiety through the mate bond.
There was far too much testosterone in this room right now. “Walking away?” “No, I’m checking on my mate who is unconscious, from healing your friend.” Knox grunts out as he moves towards the staircase, his lips snarling. Jace takes Knox’s place beside me without hesitation. He even places hi
