ELLE Nightshade was very beautiful. I was not certain what I expected it to be like, but this was completely different than Blue Crest. We passed by houses, parks, and even schools. It was Saturday, so families of all ages were out and about. We even passed by an ice cream truck. “Wow…” I said softly, mesmerized that this was home now. “We’ll give everyone a tour once your family’s pack settles in and all,” Kade promised, placing a kiss to the back of my hand. “ Can’t wait!” I flashed him a smile. This would be an entirely new life for all of us, and I was incredibly happy that all the previous Omegas would be getting to embrace all of this. This was not just a blessing for me. It was a blessing for all of us. ‘They have a fucking waterpark,’ Gabriel said excitedly. “You have a waterpark?” I asked Kade with widened eyes. I had never been to a waterpark. I had been swimming in the small lake we had a couple of times, but that was it. Swimming was not difficult, but we did not re
ELLEIt was another hour before Kade got back. He opened the door and pulled me into his arms, burying his face in my neck. I did not even need the bond to feel the anger radiating off him.“Tell me what happened,” he said.I explained everything to him. What she said, what she did, and how I responded. He listened quietly without interrupting until I was done.He stepped away from me and started pacing. I almost chuckled because it was something we both had in common, but the seriousness of the situation wiped away any trace of amusement. If I thought he was angry before then I was sorely mistaken in comparison to now.“That bitch’s name is Abigail. She was the girlfriend I had in high school. I swear to you that I never looked at her, touched her, or talked to her intimately afterwards. For her to come up here and act like that …”I stood in front of him and placed my hand on his chest. He was angry but also felt guilty. This was not on him at all. This was a crazy bitch’s delusion
KADE “There’s no way in fuck that I would ever reject my mate. She’s the most amazing blessing I could ever receive. Nice try though. Your little mind games won’t work on us. We really thought it would be harder to figure out who was helping Elwyn, but my sexy mate figured it out the moment you tried and failed to compel her.” Abigail paled at my words as if she never considered it was possible to be caught. She truly was a delusional bitch. We got to know one another in high school through a shared mourning over the death of a parent. Her father had died, and she was so lost that it reminded me of what it had been like for me when my mother died. I came to realize that she played on my compassion in order to ensnare me into her desire to become Luna. I broke up with her and never touched her again nor had anything to do with her again. “Also, for you to compel the Elders into forcing me to accept a chosen mate will have its own consequences. For what you did to my mate … well, she
KADEI had not been expecting the prophecy to encompass all of that. It now made sense why Selene had told us to talk to Gramps about it. There was a lot of shit that could go wrong with it, but I knew that both Elle and I wanted to protect those who needed protecting.“The Shadow Creek pack and the Omegas from Blue Crest will also be moving here. Apollo actually mated to Elle’s cousin,” I said, directing the conversation back on course.Grandma and Gramps were understandably thrilled because Apollo was like a grandson to them. They always treated him the exact same way that they treated me. He had a rough childhood, so my family brought him into the folds and never let him leave.“The Council knows Elle’s secrets, but nobody from Nightshade besides Apollo and you two can know.”I paused to make sure they were with me on this. They would understand why once they knew what those secrets were. They nodded for me to continue.“Shadow Creek is like Nightshade with the gifted wolves. Elle’
ELLE I woke up before Kade did with a great idea in mind. A pleasurable way to wake him up in the best experience possible. We had fallen asleep with just a sheet over us. I was a fan of sleeping without clothes on, especially for moments like this. Plus, his body was carved from perfection. He could flood me with arousal just from a single glimpse of his droolworthy body. I utilized my ninja skills and slipped under the sheet entirely until I was eyelevel with his delicious cock. Kade’s cock was a masterpiece that brought me to the highest planes of pleasure each time. He did set me down on his cock twice last night. Once before removing the brand and once after. I could not get enough of my mate. Every touch, taste, and moment compounded until my body could not hold back. We had not talked about pups yet, but I wanted to have that discussion with him soon just so that we were on the same page. Faye told me after she healed my body that part of her ability could prevent pregnancy
ELLE Cara was the loveliest woman I had ever met. She had an incredibly genuine nature that showed her heart. I had initially been nervous about her helping out this morning, but I was thankful that she did. She turned me around towards the mirror so that I could see the final look. I was very shocked with what she accomplished. I knew that I was not horrendously ugly or anything, but this made me feel gorgeous. I donned black jeans, a mint colored off-shoulder blouse, and a pair of silver gladiator sandals. My hair was swept to the side in a loose French braid which showed off Kade’s mark perfectly. The makeup was kept subtle, highlighting what Cara called my natural beauty. A light pink shimmer made my lips pop. “One final touch then it’s perfect,” she said with a smile. Her fingers clasped a necklace onto me. It was a simple yet elegant all the same. It had two wolves situated inside a crescent moon. The pendant and chain were made from rose gold and hung just to the base of my
KADE It seemed like there was a constant cycle of betrayal, pain, and anger that was constantly in motion lately. Our pack had always been like a family. We had each other’s backs and would protect it at all costs. At least that was what I thought. I never gave thought to having so many traitors here who had been at it for so long. The only way to ensure that there were no more traitors was to place the pack under an Alpha command to verify everyone’s credibility. That thought tore at me because I never wanted to be one of those Alphas. However, now I was forced to wonder if my pack members were treasonous bastards. Elle and I were just waiting for the cue to enter the meeting hall. I truly did not want to do this, but I had no other choice. Sparks danced along my skin as my mate placed soft kisses along my neck and jaw. I looked at her in wonder. She honestly did not hold hatred for what those bastards did to her. She hated them for what they did to our pack and to me. How could
ELLE I was very excited to attend training. None of us ever officially trained with a pack while at Blue Crest. However, it did not mean that we could not fight. We were all pretty damn lethal when need be. I was curious to see how we stacked up against Nightshade because we had all heard rumors about the beasts that their warriors were. “How’s everything divided up for training?” I asked Kade while we were tying our shoes. He looked sexy in his white tank top and black basketball shorts. The outfit showed off his strength, and that was a huge turn-on. I could not wait to see him in all of his glory today. His eyes slowly swept over my outfit and let out a low growl of approval. My silver shorts came to mid-thigh, and I donned a fitted black tank top. My hair was set in a high ponytail to keep it out of my face. Kade’s arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me into his body. His lips rested next to my ear. “You’re really going to test my resolve today. You look so fucking delec
