Getting ready for Beach Party

last update Last Updated: 2025-01-02 19:36:18

Just then, Liam’s phone buzzed on the table, breaking the moment. He glanced at the screen and frowned slightly. “Looks like my pack members are on their way. I'm throwing a party tonight for all of you.”

Isla’s heart skipped a beat at the thought of being surrounded by more people. “A party?” she echoed, her anxiety creeping back in. “What kind of party?”

“Just a beach party with friends. Nothing too wild, I promise,” he said, trying to ease her worries. “But it’ll be fun. Don't worry, it will just be my inner circle of friends.”

“Okay,” Isla smiled. “You know,” she began, her voice soft but steady, “I feel like you’ve started to know me better than I know myself.”

Liam raised an eyebrow, a teasing smile playing on his lips. “Oh really? And how’s that?”

“You knew I wouldn’t like being around a lot of strangers,” she admitted, her cheeks flushing slightly. “You could have invited anyone, but you chose to keep it to your inner circle.”

“Because I know you, Isla,” he said, his tone play

    Isla laughed, her heart warming at the sight of Liam and Ken splashing each other, their laughter mingling with the sound of the waves. It was a stark contrast to the serious, powerful Alpha she had first met. This playful side of Liam was refreshing, and it made her feel more at ease in his presence.“Looks like they’re having a blast,” Isla said, her eyes sparkling with amusement.“Yeah, they always do,” Miranda replied, her voice filled with warmth. “Liam has this way of bringing out the fun in everyone. It’s one of the things I love about him.”Isla nodded, her heart fluttering at the thought of Liam. She had never met anyone quite like him—so strong yet so effortlessly charming. “He’s really something,” she said softly, almost to herself.“Yes, he is,” Taylor chimed in, a knowing smile on her face. Just then, Ken splashed water in Liam’s direction, and Liam retaliated with a playful shove, sending Ken tumbling into the surf. The sight of Ken sputtering and laughing only made Isl

    Isla sat on the edge of the bonfire circle, her heart still racing from the kiss she had shared with Liam. The warmth of the flames flickered against her skin, but her mind was elsewhere, drawn to the sight of Miranda and Andy. They were a picture-perfect couple, almost ethereal in their beauty. Andy stood tall, his dark black hair contrasting sharply with his pale skin, and his striking grey eyes seemed to hold a world of secrets. He looked like a Greek god, with high cheekbones and a confident demeanor that made him seem almost surreal.Miranda, with her long, flowing hair and model-like figure, complimented him perfectly. They were both nearly the same height, and the way they moved together was effortless, as if they were two pieces of a puzzle that fit together flawlessly. Isla couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy as she watched them interact, their chemistry palpable.“I thought you wouldn’t come! Why are you late?” Miranda exclaimed, her voice filled with playful reproach as s

    The atmosphere around the bonfire was electric, the laughter and chatter of friends mingling with the sound of the waves crashing against the shore. Liam stood up, a playful grin spreading across his face as he clapped his hands to get everyone’s attention. “Alright, everyone! No more Truth or Dare. It’s time to dance!”Cheers erupted from the group, and Isla felt a rush of excitement mixed with nervousness. She had never been much of a dancer, but the thought of moving to the music with Liam made her heart race.“Couples dance!” Miranda chimed in, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. “Let’s start with Andy and me!”As the first notes of a French song filled the air, Andy took Miranda’s hand, leading her to the center of the circle. The music was soft and romantic, and they began to sway together, their movements fluid and graceful. Isla watched, captivated by the way they moved in perfect harmony, their chemistry undeniable. The group cheered them on, and Isla couldn’t help but smile

    Isla’s heart raced as she processed Liam’s last words. “What the hell? How dare you!” she shouted, her voice echoing in the small room. The warmth that had enveloped her moments ago was replaced by a chilling realization. The man hovering above her, with his intense gaze and confident demeanor, was not the Liam she knew.Liam’s expression shifted, a dark shadow crossing his features. “I’m done with you acting innocent and like a damsel in distress,” he said, his voice low and menacing. “Now, I’m going to take you against your will.”Isla’s breath caught in her throat as he reached out, his fingers brushing against her cheek. The touch was icy, sending a shiver down her spine, as if she had touched the poles of the Arctic Circle. This wasn’t the warmth she had felt before; this was something else entirely.“No,” she whispered, shaking her head in disbelief. “This isn’t you, Liam. You would never hurt me.”But as she looked into his eyes, she saw something dark and predatory lurking ben

    Liam stood at the edge of the beach, the sound of the waves crashing against the shore echoing in his ears. The moon hung low in the sky, casting a silvery glow over the sand, but the beauty of the night felt overshadowed by the turmoil in his heart. He couldn’t shake the events of the evening from his mind, especially the way Isla had looked at him—conflicted, vulnerable, and filled with doubt.He knew what she must be thinking. Every time he felt like he was getting a step closer to her, she seemed to take two steps back. It frustrated him, but deep down, he understood. Isla was living without her wolf, a reality that was akin to a mortal living without a vital body part. She had lost a crucial piece of herself, and it was taking a toll on her mental health.Liam clenched his fists, feeling a wave of anger wash over him—not at Isla, but at the circumstances that had led them here. He was the strongest Alpha, and yet, he felt utterly powerless when it came to helping her. How could h

    Liam stumbled through the beach house, the alcohol coursing through his veins making every step feel unsteady. He knew he shouldn’t be going to Isla's room, but the thought of Isla alone in her room, upset and drowning her sorrows in wine, gnawed at him. He had to check on her, to make sure she was okay.He approached her door, knocking softly, but there was no response. “Isla?” he called out, his voice slightly slurred. When silence greeted him, he took a deep breath and pushed the door open, finding it unlocked.The sight that greeted him was unexpected. Isla sat on the edge of her bed, a half-empty wine bottle in her hand, her cheeks flushed and her eyes glassy. She looked up at him, a smirk playing on her lips. “Great! The greatest Alpha of all time is here,” she declared, her words slightly slurred.“Don’t call me that,” Liam replied, shaking his head. “Just Liam.”Isla attempted to stand, but her legs wobbled beneath her, and she stumbled toward him.

    Isla sat in the living room of the beach house, surrounded by Liam and his friends, a sense of confusion washing over her. She had expected a fun activity after breakfast, perhaps a game or a beach outing, but instead, they were all gathered in a semi-circle, with Taylor standing in the center like a teacher preparing to give a lecture.Liam was seated next to her, his expression serious as he focused intently on Taylor. Ken slouched in his seat, looking bored, while Miranda leaned forward, her eyes sparkling with interest, clearly eager to hear what Taylor had to say. Andy, on the other hand, appeared to be in a state between sleep and wakefulness, his head bobbing slightly as he fought to stay alert.“Alright, everyone,” Taylor began, her voice firm and commanding. “We are gathered here to discuss something crucial. It concerns none other than our pack Alpha and Luna. So people, hear me out.” She shot a glare at Andy, who immediately straightened up, suddenly wide awake.Isla’s hear

    As the weight of Taylor's revelation hung in the air, Ken couldn't help but start giggling at Isla's shocked reaction. His laughter broke the tension, and Liam cast an annoyed look in his direction.“Seriously, Ken?” Liam said, exasperation evident in his voice. “This isn’t a joke.”“Oh, come on!” Ken replied, still chuckling. “I just feel happy to see how uncomfortable Isla is with all of this. It’s refreshing!”Isla shot Ken a glare, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. “It’s not that I’m uncomfortable,” she protested, crossing her arms defensively. “I just feel that I should take things slow with Liam in our relationship. But if this helps in bringing back my wolf, Selena, then I’ll definitely try.”Liam’s expression softened at her words, but Ken continued to chuckle, clearly enjoying the moment. “Come on! You’re not going to let this go, are you?” Liam asked, exasperated.“Never!” Ken replied, grinning widely.Suddenly, Liam stood up, a playful glint in his eyes. He began to da

    The flight to Paris passed in much the same manner—her family consuming expensive food and drinks, making false statements about places they'd never been, and peppering Liam with questions about his business and personal wealth. Isla retreated further into silence, responding only when directly addressed, her discomfort growing with each passing hour.By the time they landed at Le Bourget Airport, Isla felt emotionally drained. A sleek black limousine awaited them on the tarmac, another display of Lockwood luxury that her family exclaimed over with unrestrained enthusiasm."We'll be going directly to Avenue Montaigne," Liam informed them as they settled into the vehicle. "It's home to some of the world's most exclusive boutiques.""Oh, I've read about it in magazines," her mother gushed. "Dior, Chanel, Louis Vuitton—all the finest brands!""Indeed," Liam agreed. "And today, you're welcome to explore them all."The drive through Paris was a blur of elegant architecture and tree-lined

    The sleek private jet gleamed in the morning sunlight as Isla reluctantly made her way up the stairs. Behind her, her family's excited chatter grated on her nerves like sandpaper. They had barely contained their elation since Liam's unexpected invitation, and now, faced with the reality of the Lockwood family's private aircraft, they made no attempt to hide their awe."This is absolutely magnificent," her mother exclaimed, running her manicured fingers along the polished wooden paneling inside the cabin. "I am flying private to Paris for lunch! Who would have thought?"Isla winced at her mother's theatrical tone. The woman who had once told her that dreams were for people who couldn't face reality was now behaving like a child in a candy store.Her father wasted no time claiming one of the plush leather seats, immediately testing its reclining function and the various buttons on the armrest. "Now this is how travel should be," he declared, as if he'd been flying private jets his entir

    "Isla!" Her mother's voice cut through her thoughts, high and delighted in a way Isla had never heard directed at her before. "Darling, there you are!"All conversation at the table ceased as every head turned toward the doorway. Isla felt Liam's hand press reassuringly against her lower back, grounding her as seven pairs of eyes fixed on them."Good morning," Liam's deep voice filled the room, commanding attention without effort—the natural authority of an Alpha. "I trust everyone slept well?""Exceptionally," her father answered, rising from his seat with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. "Your hospitality is unmatched, Alpha Lockwood."Alpha Lockwood. Not Liam. The formality wasn't lost on Isla, nor was the respect—bordering on obsequiousness—in her father's tone. This was the same man who had once dismissed her dreams of finding her fated mate as "unrealistic given her limitations as a wolf-less.""Please, join us," her mother urged, gesturing to the two empty seats at the

  • From Rejected to Resilient: The Alpha's Supermodel Luna    Breakfast with her estranged family

    The Lockwood jet touched down on the private airstrip just as dawn was breaking over the horizon. Isla stirred from her dreamless sleep, her body feeling more rested than it had in weeks. Without her wolf constantly prowling beneath her skin, sleep came easier now—deeper and more peaceful. She blinked away the remnants of slumber and gazed out the window as the mansion came into view, its grand silhouette outlined against the pale morning sky."Sleep well?" Liam's voice was a warm rumble beside her.Isla turned to find him looking refreshed despite not having slept at all during their trip back from Montreal. Being a werewolf—a powerful Alpha at that—meant Liam could go days without proper rest if needed. His supernatural stamina was yet another reminder of the wolf she no longer possessed."Better than I have in a long time," she admitted, stretching her arms above her head. "I didn't even realize I'd fallen asleep until we were halfway back."Liam's fingers traced the curve of her

    The take-off was smooth, the powerful engines pushing them back into their seats as the jet climbed rapidly into the night sky. Below them, New York City spread out like a constellation of earthbound stars, a mirror to the actual stars above them."It's beautiful," Isla whispered, pressing her palm against the cool window.Liam leaned over, his breath warm against her ear. "Not as beautiful as you."She turned to him, ready to playfully accuse him of being cheesy, but the sincerity in his ocean eyes stopped her. There was something profound in his gaze, something that transcended romantic platitudes."When I saw you wake up like that," he said quietly, "terrified, haunted... it broke something in me. I would fly you to the moon for hot chocolate if it would chase away that look in your eyes."Isla's heart swelled, emotion clogging her throat. She reached out, tracing the strong line of his jaw with her fingertips. "My fierce, protective wolf," she murmured."Always," he promised.The

    The silence between them faded now, less.Isla's breathing had steadied, though her mind still raced with the implications of what she had seen about Selena. It was just a dream. Pull yourself together!She looked up at Liam, her eyes searching his. "You said you'd help me forget," she whispered. "How are you planning to do that?"A slow smile spread across Liam's face, the kind that always made her heart skip a beat. It was mischievous, tender, and utterly disarming all at once."Well," he said, reaching for his phone on the nightstand, "first things first." He pressed a button, and the device lit up, illuminating his face in a soft blue glow. He scrolled through his contacts and pressed call.Isla watched, puzzled, as he waited for someone to answer. At this hour? Who could he possibly be calling?"Marcus," Liam's voice was authoritative yet casual. "I need hot chocolate sent up to the master suite. The good kind, with the whipped cream and those little marshmallows Isla likes."

    The bedroom was lit up in night lamps, soft and silver.. Isla lay nestled against Liam, her body curved perfectly into the protective arc of his embrace. Their breathing synchronized. Her slumber began softly, peacefully. The warmth of Liam's body, the steady rise and fall of his chest, the faint scent of cedar and pine that always surrounded him—these were her anchors, her safety.And then the dream began.At first, it was pure joy. Isla found herself running—no, bounding—through a moonlit forest. But this was different. This was her wolf form. Selena. Her long-lost wolf that she thought had died years ago.Golden blonde fur gleamed under the moonlight, each muscle moving with a fluid grace she had forgotten was possible. The ground beneath her paws felt alive, vibrating with ancient energy. Moss-covered earth, fallen pine needles, the soft give of forest floor—sensations she had been denied for so long rushed back to her.Freedom. Pure, unbridled freedom.Her wolf form was magn

    The Lockwood mansion gardens stretched out before Isla as she walked past the flowers and bushes. Ancient oak trees lined the perimeter, their branches creating natural archways that filtered the morning sunlight into delicate patterns across the manicured pathways. Roses of every imaginable hue—deep crimson, soft blush, pristine white—competed for attention, their fragrance hanging in the air like a delicate perfume.Isla moved through this landscape of beauty, her fingers trailing lightly over delicate petals, her mind a whirlwind of emotions. One week. Just seven days remained until her wedding to Liam, a countdown that simultaneously thrilled and terrified her. The gardens had always been her sanctuary, a place where she could retreat from the world's complications, but today they felt different. Charged. Expectant.She wore a simple white sundress, the fabric light and flowing, catching the gentle morning breeze. Her blonde hair was pulled back in a loose braid, tendrils esca

    If anyone understood the danger of Liam's anger, it was she. Her son had inherited raw, ancient powers that set him apart even among werewolves. His connection to the primal forces of their kind ran deeper than most, giving him abilities that were both gift and curse."So that is why I couldn't face him," Maximilian said quietly, noting her reaction. "You know what he's capable of. Then how can I confess the truth to him?!""You are right," she whispered. "Even when he was small, I could sense the power in him. It's why I worked so hard to teach him control, to channel his emotions." She looked up at her mate, fear flickering in her eyes. "How bad was it after we both went hidden from his life?!"Maximilian sighed heavily, running a hand through his hair. "The first year was... difficult. I heard that he destroyed an entire wing of the mansion during one episode. The pack has stood by him, but there were times..." He trailed off, shaking his head. "Times when I wondered if his grief
