Zara's POV

"Alpha Nicholas, is there a reason you came to see me?" I inquired when I had recovered from my shock.

I took a deep breath, feeling my heart thump against my chest.

"Call me Nic," he grinned.

I felt my heart skip a beat when I saw his stunning yet commanding smile. When he smiled sincerely, he appeared considerably younger.

"Very well," I said, trying again. "Alpha Nic, what made you...?"

"For the love of the goddess," he growled, irritated, and wrinkled his nose as though he could smell something foul. "Ignore the formalities; we are not with other pack members; we are in a cave. I do not see why you and your beta have to refer to me by my Alpha title while here."

I rolled my eyes and sighed.

I was brought up to address an Alpha by his title when we were in the company of other people.

Was he trying to sidetrack the conversation?

Nic fixed me with his gaze, and for a few moments, I felt forced to follow his instructions.

"All right," I muttered, lowering my head in surren

    Zara's POVNicolas stayed with us just before dusk, promising to see me soon. He went back through the tunnels in the same way he came. Our farewell was tearful, and as I watched him go, I felt both heartbroken and cold."Cheer up, old girl," Levi linked, as we made our way back to the pack house.It was time for us to get ready for dinner."It is really difficult," I said sadly. "It feels as though my heart would burst into two pieces at any moment. I am starting to miss him already. And Kaya's adding to the pain. All she wants to do is follow Nic back to his pack.""I think I understand," Levi said. "The bond is making it unbearable to be apart.""Yes," I replied. "And it is even more difficult to accept the fact that he visited me in these conditions. It would have been just as simple for him to ignore and reject me."Nic and I have not formally accepted each other as mates yet, but based on our behavior, it appeared that he was interested and would make the move shortly."He is a

"Someone seems really nervous," Ray remarked, as I shifted back to being human.I looked back at Ronan and watched him briskly as he paced up and down.Has anything occurred during my absence?"Your father is furious at you," Ronan hissed. "He is waiting on you in his office,"I cocked my head to one side and squinted. It has been a while since I have seen Ronan behave like this."Tell him I will be there shortly," I said composedly as I picked up my pants off the ground."He is itching to see you now," Ronan growled. "He is so angry that he is threatening to take control of the pack.""Your father rocked Ronan's boat again," Ray chirped. "No wonder he isn't a happy camper."My father had the ability to get under Ronan's skin and rattle his little world. I never understood why he took everything my father said personally. I was given the Alpha position by the old wolf eight

"I am doing the best I can!"Zara's face kept appearing in front of my eyes, and I could not even begin to imagine anything else."You are not!" he exclaimed. "Avoid thinking about Zara! Concentrate!""It is useless!" I sighed, frustrated. "The bond is keeping me from thinking of anything else!""Well you better do something," Ray remarked. "You can't leave your room... not in your current situation!"I still had my cock hard and raised like a warrior heading into combat.I kept my eyes closed, clamped down on my jaw, and visualized myself in the forest."Let me try and help you," Ray said, bringing a forest picture to mind. "Do you see the forest?""Yes," I answered. "How are you doing that?""I am just playing with some old memories from your subconscious," he answered. "You will have to provide the remaining portion.""Like what?" I inqu

    Nicolas POV"I think you should reconsider," my father said, bringing up the main topic of our meeting.I was surprised by his words.I never thought he would counsel me against forming an alliance with a silver-blessed pack. Among the blessed packs, the Silverado Pack is one of the most reputable. It would be certain that we would defeat the Red Howl Pack if we signed a treaty and joined forces."Why should I?" I asked, shifting my head to the side. "The meeting is already scheduled, and Ronan has already begun working on the paperwork.""Cease the scheduled meeting immediately!" My father roared."I refuse to withdraw my proposal!" I said, surprised by his sudden outburst. "I will do everything in my power to help them, as they require our support!""You have no idea what you are doing, boy!" He hissed through his teeth."And you are not offering me any convincing reason as to why I should not sign a treaty with them!" I shot back with a growl. "Any issues you may have with Alpha Ri

"I have, thanks," I replied as I stood up from the dinner table. Levi got up from his chair beside me, holding my hand in his.Beta John stopped my father, and he turned to face him."I will talk about the specifics right now," my dad answered the silent question."And that other problem?" Beta John inquired with a worried tone."It is not up to you to decide," my father replied. "I will talk about it when the time is appropriate."Beta John attempted to countermand, but my father stopped him with a raised hand."Beta, we already have enough problems on our hands," my dad remarked. "I can't add more. Furthermore, how would it alter our lives right now?"Beta John let out a sigh."I honor your desires, Alpha," he said, glancing sideways at me before moving away from my father's side."What the heck was that about?"

    Zara's POVThe Golden Gate Hotel was among the priciest and most opulent establishments I have ever visited.Thick, pricey off-white curtains draped the tall windows, and the reception desk, walls, and floors were all constructed and covered in expensive white marble. Signature paintings by well-known painters lined the walls, and a massive fountain screamed wealth and prestige in the middle of the reception area."I am a little surprised, but that seems like a picture of a famous football player," Kaya gasped."And it is signed," I remarked, looking over the various objects hanging on the walls in astonishment. "What is the reason behind Nic showcasing such a costly item throughout the reception area?""Maybe Nicholas does not really care about expensive things," Kaya remarked. "Or he keeps excellent security," I said, heading toward the reception desk.I was hoping that someone at the front desk would be able to assist me and let me know where in this enormous hotel I could find Ni

"This is incredible!"The space appeared more like a sizable apartment than a hotel room. It was furnished with exquisite detail, featuring vast white walls and an open area in front of us."I was hoping that you would like it," he said, and he took my hand before shutting the door behind them."It is definitely something," I replied, looking from side to side. "It is the presidential suite," he explained, a soft smile following on his lips. "This hotel's one and only. I typically hold my private meetings in this suite.""I wonder how many private meetings he has conducted here," Kaya mused."And how many attractive women have ever been here?" I commented, feeling a bit self-conscious and jealous. "Do you believe Nic would have shared his bed with them?" Kay

She appeared reluctant to accept me as her mate, even though a moment ago I mustered all my courage and threw my heart and soul at her.Where did I go wrong?What did I do wrong?Did I wait too long to claim her as my mate?Should I have stopped the mating ceremony and claimed her then?I released Zara's face and took a step back, hope shattering my heart and sending the fragments flying across my chest like glass, leaving me in searing agony.How could I have been so foolish as to think that after I had hurt her, she would still accept me?This was entirely my own fault!"Zara?" I spoke up in an attempt to get her attention, my voice breaking as I revealed the thoughts running through my head. "You do not have to express anything. I-I-I get it."Zara gave a wild shake of her head, her large, storm-gray eyes brimming with unshed tears."Do not worry

My purpose in being here was to fortify the connection and foster trust, not to fracture it."We will do it together," I said, taking her hand in mine, and I curled my fingers around her and the door handle.As she turned to face me again, Zara cocked her head back. The palpable tension in her body told me that she was anxious.Goddess, I hope that whatever is behind that door is as beneficial as what Beta John had promised."Ready?"
