Chad's POV When Cobalt urged me to go to her, I didn't think it twice. My wolf's connection to her was growing rapidly day by day. I ran through the hallways, searching for her until her sweet scent reached me. Something was not feeling right. It was as if I could sense her restlessness. Just as I
Bella's POV Chad and I stand up at the same time. His chair scratched the floor noisily. The tidal wave of his aura made us gasp. Everyone present bared their necks except me. Anaisha didn't feel like she needed to submit. Chad reigned his aura when he saw the effect he was causing. Alpha Terrence
They left, and I made my way back through the garden with small steps. Chad caught up with me. "Bella?" He grabbed me by my bared shoulders. I can't explain the sparks I felt at his touch. They feel stronger each time. Is it possible to build a connection with someone other than your mate? I saw his
Chad's POV: That night, I couldn't sleep. I wanted to wring Clara's neck for telling Bella those things. Dane warned me. I knew I was behaving out of character where Bella was concerned. I knew I should have never accepted the engagement to Lorna. I could have confessed my feelings to Bella by n
Bella's POV "You're mine, Bella. I will make sure you won't ever forget that tonight!" He said in my ear with a low growl. I felt my stomach revolt. He was so sure of his victory. "Alpha Jasper, you may begin." Said Elder Simon in his condescending voice. I almost ran towards Chad and sat down
I was trembling with rage and deception. How can they do that to me? They have all confabulated against me. Chad put his hand on my shoulder, stopping me from shaking. "We need to take a break before continuing!" Said Chad firmly, and he guided me quickly towards the exit. Once in the hallway, I d
Bella's POV "Dr. Jana." Elder Simon said as he paced around with his hands on his back. "You were brought here because you have been Luna Bella's Dr. for the past five years. We understand that Luna Bella is carrying Alpha Jasper’s heir." "Yes, Elder Simon." Said, Dr. Jana as she stared towards
"You're as much at fault, Theron." I said, making Anaisha growl in approval. "I Luna Bella Lockwood of White Claw Pack, reject you Jasper Holloway of Riverbank Pack." The painful tug of the mate bond was still strong. My knees almost buckled "Accept the rejection, Holloway, or I swear I'll take
Bella's POV The Alpha King looks into my eyes as he speaks to me. I could feel Chad's anger building at the blatant audacity of the Natbian King. The Natbian King was extraordinarily attractive. I wondered why he didn't have a mate. "I have a propotition of my own if you want to hear it." Alpha
Chad's POV I saw the flicker of fear flashing in Arona's eyes, but she stood her ground to keep her charade going. I was so proud of my Bella. She was standing up for her family and being pretty good at it. Bella was fierceless and not afraid to put anyone in their rightful place. The fire in her
Bella's POV Arona stood tall with a hand on her hip, ready for her showdown like ways. Chad held me closer to his side, but I pulled myself free, and I stood in front of him. Lava was running through my veins. She had no right to talk about my family. I looked at her fiercely, waiting for her repl
Bella's POV When I saw the strange woman walk inside Chad's office, I had a bad feeling, but when I saw Dane coming out and leaving them alone, my heart plummeted. I had enough traumatic experiences with men cheating in their office. I took a breath, trying to relax. Chad isn't like Jasper. He wou
Chad's POV I woke up with a loud gasp as I raised my head up. I was still chained on the chair. Dr. Straus sprinted towards me with a worried face. "My King, you've awaken!" He took the keys out of his white coat and started unlocking the silver locks with gloves on. Relief rushed through me as t
Bella's POV I was waiting impatiently for Chad. Tonight was the full moon. I was hoping he could be my second chance mate if the Goddess grants me another one. Elise hands me a tea to calm my nerves, but she was as nervous as I was. "Here, Bella drink. You're so restless. It's not good for the
Chad's POV The day I was going to tell Bella the truth, Cobalt became even more erratic. I drank some Wolfsbane, but still, it would be impossible for my closest people not to notice that something was wrong with me. I went to the palace's secret chambers, almost stumbling on my feet. I went throu
Bella's POV I changed into a pair of jeans with an off the shoulder sweater. My belly has started to show more, but I don't want my pregnancy to gain attention during the competition. I use my ring to conceal my bump. I look on the mirror, and the illusion of a flat stomach reflects on the mirror
Chad's POV I rubbed my hand on my face, still unsure of what to do. How? It was way too soon. Does that mean my time was shortened as well? There is a possibility. The think is, I only drank wolfsbane yesterday because Cobalt was not being himself. I thought of Bella and my heart sank. If something happens to her, I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I went inside my office and called the number back. He answered on the first ring. "Dr. Strauss, where is he now? What do you mean you don't know!" I boomed. That's seriously irresponsible from your part. He knows better not to show himself here before the full moon." "My king, he threatened me. I had to let him go, but he was being himself rest assured. He wouldn't do anything stupid." Dr. Strauss' voice trembled over the phone. "He better won't, or I will hold you responsible. Come back to the palace and be ready for anything." I ordered him and hung up. My brother Hendrick has regained his sanity sooner than in previous t
