I looked at him in horror but my body felt lightweight. I slumped back in my seat and waited for Xander.He looked at me intensely, his eyes from time to time glowed with a hint of silver, telling me that his wolf was near.He took his fingers out and licked them clean with his tongue, making my mouth fall open. I swallowed looking at him and his eyes never left mine.“Close your legs or I might be forced to take you again and this time I will not be using my hand or my mouth.” he whispered.I realized that I was sitting with my legs wide open like I was inviting him. My heated cheeks burned like a raging fire.“I…umm, Xa..” I hesitated.“Speak mate,” he said softly.I cleared my throat and started, “I handled him, my wolf is stronger than him.”“I don’t doubt your ability to defend yourself. But I would like to see this Logan, by myself.” he answered, making me groan.“You are not going to do anything like that,” I said.“Why, are you still in love with him,” He yelled at me, his eye
Amidst the ocean of reporters, I locked eyes with Daniel. His eyes were narrowed at me and a clear indication that I couldn’t reveal the truth to the outside, even though the pack knew. The Council knew. But I was not allowed to tell the truth to the outside world.But I wasn’t going to expose them, because doing so would not only harm him but also me. I will be losing my mother’s bracelet. And I would kill before I let Emma snatch another thing that’s mine.I took a deep breath and gave them my beautiful, practiced fake smile. I had been trained from childhood to be the Luna of the Pack and always knew something like addressing the media would happen, so I was ready.“It is indeed true. Logan and I were in a relationship, but I always felt that something was missing from my mate. Even he felt the same, the connection was missing. Then one day he realized that Emma was his true mate and he got confused because of the scent. Emma and I share a parent and this was the reason for the con
The Harpers and The Hawthornes moved to the lounge area and everyone was asked to leave due to the unexpected circumstances.I wanted to leave, but I was not going anywhere without my mother’s bracelet. And it seemed that I might have to wait a little longer for it because the drama was not even ending.It only started, even though Logan’s parents were now quiet but that doesn’t mean that they were ready to accept Emma. They were throwing daggers towards her.Daniel was outside appeasing the media, but the damage was done.I checked my phone and I was shocked to see the news waiting for me. But I was not sad, this was expected considering the chaos, that was Emma’s engagement.The news of Logan's apparent change of heart regarding his engagement to Emma spread like wildfire through both the pack and the broader community. The major media outlets were covering the story, adding fuel to the already raging fire of speculation and gossip.According to the news Logan was not ready to marry
I was shell shocked, standing and watching the scene unfold before my eyes.Daniel, standing beside Emma, took the jewelry from the wooden box and placed it around Emma's wrist. My anger surged within me like a torrent, a powerful emotion that I could no longer contain. This was my mother's memory, a part of my family's history, and it had been given away without my consent. To the person I hated the most in my life.Unable to bear the sight of my mother's bracelet on Emma's wrist, I roared with a mixture of frustration and grief. My voice filled the room, commanding attention, “Give back my bracelet, or be ready to feel my wrath,” my words were a forceful demand that cut through the tension in the air.The room fell into a shocked silence as all eyes turned to me, waiting for my next move. The exchange of gifts had taken an unexpected turn, and it was clear that the ceremony, already filled with complex emotions, was far from over.Emma looked at me innocently and said in her timid v
Xander's eyes snapped at the source of the growl, there Daniel was looking at him with pure menacing hate.And on the other side, Logan was on his feet, with his clenched fists and scowl on his face.Xander’s presence provided a sense of grounding and security to me, making me blush a little.Xander’s eyes flashed with anger and unrestrained anger and he unleashed it upon Daniel, by letting out a powerful Alpha bark, making everyone's knees tremble, including me.Except for Henry, Daniel, and me, everyone was on their knees, in front of Xander. Henry was standing unflinched, but I noticed that Daniel’s knees were trembling as if his Wolf didn’t care at all about his well being.I frowned at that.As far as I knew, my father was a powerful Alpha, but this shows that his power was lacking.“You think harming my mate is an easy task and you can get away with that. Then you are mistaken Daniel, if a single hair was harmed on her body, I would have made you all pay.” Xander growled at them
The room was shrouded in silence, Xander’s laugh echoed through the tension filled halls, and everyone looked at him as if he was some creature out of this.“With a mate like this, with a mate like my Grace, I surely will win. I am sparing you so that you will live to see that day.” Xander replied to Daniel’s remark.But I was still shocked hearing what Daniel thought about me, how he only cared about his one daughter.Maybe I was never a daughter to him, only an heir that he needed to make his empire strong. A stepping stone for his empire, while he plays with my life to be the ruler.I gritted my teeth and took a deep breath to align my thoughts together.“You have made your perception of me very clear and I don’t think there is anything left to hear or say. But let me tell you something very straight, I, Grace Hawthorne, daughter of Ariana Anderson, will come back to take what’s mine. I don’t care if you like it or not, that bracelet, like a lot of things here in Blood Moon Pack, b
All thoughts I had fled my mind when I felt Xander’s tight grip on my abdomen. His warm breath fanned over my neck, making me breathless, early in the morning.I had crossed every limit with Xander and did everything that there was to do but every time he touched me, I felt that it was the first time.He always makes me breathless more than that he makes me senseless. All sense of things left my body when it was Xander.Maybe he was a warlock, and he did his frowned upon magic to keep me under his control.“You are thinking way too loud for my liking, little mate.” Xander groaned by my side, making me jump a little.To get some sense in my lust hazed mind I decided it was best to get out of his sweet intoxicating smell.I wriggled to get out of his arm, but my actions did nothing but made me ground on his hard d*ck. I heard a heavy intake of breath, behind me and I did it again, to check.A heavy groan.Again, again and again.Until he gripped my throat to make me stop.“Aren’t you a
After our intense s*x session, I fled the bed, because I didn’t know how to touch the topic of not using protection.How would I tell Xander that every time we had s*x, we were bareback and this increased our chances of having wolf pups. And considering how fertile we wolves were, this was concerning.Xander insisted on driving me to work, and the atmosphere in the car felt somewhat strained. We had both been wearing high-necked clothing for an extended period to conceal our mating marks, and it was becoming increasingly challenging to keep our secret hidden from prying eyes.We both were aware that this was not the ideal solution for our situation, but something temporary was needed.During the drive, I decided to share my thoughts with Xander sensing his good mood. He seemed more lively and happy. I was hoping that this change was because of me, and I so badly wanted this to be true. But I was no mind reader and only could hope for the best.I cleared my throat, this got his attenti
