Bella’s POV “Hey, you want to talk or not?” Raymond asks me as we pack the car for the airport.“Not,” I answer and throw my duffle in the back.I hug my mother, who holds me a little tighter than usual. She has slept with me the past two nights because I haven’t stopped crying. “I love you,” She says with a tight squeeze.“I love you so much, Mom. Thank you for being the world’s best mom.” I tell her.“I wish you could remember Nana, I am a sad, sad copy,” Mom tells me.“If you want, I’ll beat his ass,” Tellie says, hugging me.“Thanks Babes, but no. I broke up with him,” I tell her.“I’m sure you had a great reason,” Tellie defends me.“She didn’t want to have sex. A perfect reason to break up with someone,” Mom tells us.“After three weeks?” Tellie looks grossed out. “Good job.”I chuckle and hug my little sister.~~~“This is the first time you have ever kept something from us and I don’t like it,” Ryan tells me as we sit on the plane. “I really don’t want to talk about it,” I t

Raymond’s POV“You good man?” Ryan asks me as we walk to class our first day.“Yeah, why?” I ask, jogging to try and catch the Alpha.“Because Bella and I spent the night together without you,” he tells me.“Sorry, I hooked up with one of the girls on Jay’s floor,” I tell him.I catch Alpha and she smiles at me.“Fun night?” She smirks at me.“Yes,” I tell her.“I miss Jack,” Ryan tells us.“I miss Jeremy,” Bella says, and we all stop. “I can’t believe I said it out loud.”I pull her into a hug and hold her. Ryan comes up and joins us.“What happened?” I hear Justin run up and pull Bella away.Bella sinks into him.“Alpha, are you okay?” Lesley asks.Bella pushes away from him.“I just let myself admit I miss my ex-boyfriend,” Bella says. “We broke up two days ago.”“Three days ago,” Jay, Ryan and I say together.“Call him, Bella,” Justin says. “You love him, you know it.”“Later, we have class,” Bella says, being her fake strong self.She walks away and I look into the guys.“Ryan, go

Bella’s POV“May I have a private word with you?” Nickolas asks me. He is as tall as Raymond, but with olive skin, blonde messy hair, green eyes and constant smirk. “I’m not leaving here until Ryan tells me to,” I tell him. Nickolas nods, “I understand. Your guests have been approved and are welcome. Including the human.”I turn on Justin and Raymond who both give me guilty smiles. “Human?” I ask. Justin-Don’t pretend you don’t want him here.Me-We dated three weeks let’s not blow it up to a great love affair. Justin-Don’t hold back and see what it becomes. I roll my eyes at both of them before turning back to Nickolas.“Thank you,” I tell him.“Would you perfer the human have his own room?” Nickolas’s eyes tinkle as he looks at me. “Yes,” I try to stay comfortable but I am going to pound those two idiots to mush and make them walk it off. “I’ll arrange it, which floor would be best?” Nickolas seems amused even more. “Delta floor is the most empty right?” I say. Nickolas come

Bella’s POV“I never met your Delta, what is his name?” I ask Slate.“Curtis,” Slate answers. “Jack isn’t going to kill him, right?”“Jack is going to give him the fight of his life, but not take his life,” Jeremy answers for me.“Are you human?” Slate looks at him.“Yes,” Jeremy defends himself.“Your mate?” Slate asks me.“Standing right here,” Jeremy says, getting his attention back. “I’m her boyfriend. The rest is none of your business.”I can’t help but smile. That was really hot.“I can squash you like a bug,” Slate tells him.“That is why I have her. She will literally eat you alive,” Jeremy tells him, straight faced.Shelby- Cute. Snap your jaw at him.I snap my jaws at Slate, making Jeremy smile.The sound of a fist making contact with bone draws our attention the ring.Jack is giving the guy body shots, disabling him.“Why not hit him in the face?” Jeremy asks.“First Blood,” We all say together.“He is making the fight last,” Slate says. “Making sure Curtis feels it.”Curti

Bella’s POV“Your choice better be to not,” Ryan huffs. “You are Alpha. You can’t fuck pack members."“Thank you, I am aware. I am also aware that Jeremy is not technically a pack member being human,” I tell him.Ryan’s parents and Nickolas come back into the room.“Good to see you up and talking,” Nickolas nods to Ryan.“Thank you, Alpha,” Ryan grabs Jack’s hand to steady his breathing.“You can be released tomorrow. As long as you take it easy and no more sparing,” Dr. Whitmere tells him.“Well, apparently, I lost my rank to this hottie,” Ryan looks up at Jack with pride. “With him to defend me, who needs to fight?”Jack smiles at Ryan.Mrs. Sarson talks to Ryan for a bit, and I turn my focus to Nickolas, who standing awful close to me.“Ever heard of personal space?” I ask, stepping to the side.“I have heard of it, but I find it overrated,” Nickolas moves close again.“Alpha, I need to make a call, so I’ll run bags to where they need to go,” Justin offers.“Thank you,” I say, and

Bella’s POVNickolas turns his attention to me. With the damn smirk!“I just want to be on their good side,” He offers.“Try getting on my good side first,” I shoo Raymond and Justin, who leave.Nickolas steps close to me as the door closes.“I’m sorry he broke your heart twice,” Nickolas says. “I guess we can’t trust humans.”“He didn’t betray me. We were broken up. I broke up with him again because he slept with Justin’s girlfriend, thinking he was hurting Justin. My friends are important to me.”“Hence me wanting to make nice with Justin and Raymond,” Nicholas moves closer to me.“And that is where you misstepped,” I say as I push him toward the door.“So, hating your friends is a misstep, being nice to you friends is a misstep. Exactly what is the right step?” Nicholas asks.“Waiting more than an hour for me to get over a break would be nice,” I tell him as we approach the door.“I just want to make sure you know I’m here for you,” Nickolas stands against the door.“Right now, I d

Bella’s POV“Wasn’t expecting to see you two tonight,” Tristan says as we sit down.“Why?” I ask, sitting next to him.“I thought my brother had finally charmed you enough to earn a date,” Tristan says, pouring me a glass of tea.“How does one earn a date?” I ask Tristan.“Well, by being charming, kind, caring, attentive and asking,” Tristan answers.“So, if a male does all those things, the female is obligated to say yes?” I ask.Tristan narrows his eyes at me the way he does when I invalidate his points.“So, you are leaving in two days? I’m so excited,” Tristan passes me the mashed potatoes.“I bet, but who will question your every move and require your brain to function beyond being the prick you are naturally,” I ask, with a smile.“I have grown accustomed to you. I might actually miss you, not as much as Nickolas, but still,” Tristan bumps me.“Well, I might miss you, but you did try to kill one of my best friends. So, I’m still plotting a very bad revenge,” I tell him as we sta

I would feel dirty and all,” I tell him.“Can I kiss you?” Raymond asks.“I did something tonight,” I tell him. “I allowed something to happen with Nick.”“Did you have sex with him?” Raymond asks, almost pained.“In a manner of speaking. But I’m still a virgin,” I tell him.“Then, I don’t care.” He whispers and leans in.We kiss and our bodies shift.“Raymond,” I moan as he kisses down my neck.“I want you, Bella,” Raymond whispers.“Raymond,” I hold his face. “We can’t.”“That doesn’t mean I don’t want to,” Raymond smiles and leans back to kissing me.I kiss

Everyone is here.Stone takes my hand and we greet our guests before we all go inside. “OH!” I gasp. The inside of the villa is covered in flowers, candles, lights, a DJ, food, everything for a hell of a party. “Its your engagement party,” Lesley tells me handing me a glass.

The moon goddess’s POV“Hello, Tristian Crimson. I have been watching you,” I tell him. I hold up my hand and he falls to the ground. “I never chose you as an Alpha. I chose Bella. I made her stronger, faster, better than all the rest. You have destroyed all the gifts I gave you.”Tristian is frozen in my command.“Shift,” I tell Rex. Stone stands in front of me. “Stone you took my charge a little too literal, but you got there in the end. I gave you Bella as a gift. Don’t be unworthy.”Stone kneels, “You have my word.”I look at Shelby and nod.“Tristian Crimson, I sentence you to death,” I say, stepping back for Rex and Shelby to kill him.Tristian closes his eyes to accept his fate.Once he is dead, Shelby and Rex bow before me.“Erik will die at the hand of Slate; Tellie is pregnant with the next Conroy Alpha.

Bella's POV“Tristian still has the loyalty of some of the pack,” Joshua tells Stone.“He may attack there first to gain more followers. But Bella and Justin took over a hundred alone, his warriors aren’t that well trained,” Stone says.“If they come from Durk, they are now. Marcella trained them herself,” Grandpa tells us.“Great, so we are fighting a force equal to our own,” Joshua looks worried for the first time.“We should shift and join the line,” I suggest.“Not yet, let our wolves rest until we need them,” Grandma offers.“I’m scared,” Lesley says out loud. “I’m sorry, that was an inside thought.”“No, Baby,” Justin holds her and their daughter close. “It’s going to be okay.”“We don’t know that,” Lesley says. “Tristian is crazy.”The baby fusses a little and Lesley takes her to the back of the room to feed her.“Go to her, idiot,” I tell Justin, who does.Stone looks around the room. “Can everyone excuse me and Bella for a moment?

Bella’s POVOnce Stone hangs up the phone, I know I have one chance before Ahab hops the boat, sailing away.“Raymond, tell Jack to call Safehaven for our pack. Tristian is going to come straight for me or Lesley, maybe both. He clearly has a new backer,” I order, and I hold on to Stone’s arms. “Stone, we need to get Tellie and Slate to call Safehaven here too. Tristian has a plan and it's to separate us. Let’s not give him the chance.”Stone is shaking with anger, but nods.We pull Tellie and Slate off the dance floor along with the other Alphas in attendance. Including Erik.“I got a call from the FBI, Tristian escaped with the help of 50 or so wolves,” Stone explains.“Slate, we called Safehaven at Bazin, I suggest everyone does the same,” Bella says.“Bella, you are not safe,” Erik says.“I know, I’m flying back to Bazin to meet him head on with Stone,” I hold Stone’s hand and feel him pulling away slightly. “He and I will do what we should have done five years ago.

Stone’s POV“Wow, Alpha it’s 4:15am,” Ryan’s voice rings through.“Give me 10 minutes and I'll meet you in the office,” Bella says sleepily.“Okay, coffee in the office,” Ryan closes the door again.“He just walks in whenever?” I ask.“I’m normally dressed and up at 4, we meet at 4:15,” she tells me as she gets up.I’m guessing she used some sort of super speed, because before I could get out of bed she was already showered and dressed.“Can I meet you in the office?” I ask.“If you want, we have training right after, so get dressed for that,” She kisses my cheek and leaves.I shower and dress in five minutes.“I will arrange to have all of Erik’s things moved out today,” I hear Ryan say as I come in. “Also, Babes’ Luna Ceremony; You, Stone, Raymond and Azlee are going. Justin is asking forgiveness; Lesley could pop any second.”“Sounds good,” Bella smiles at me as I pour my coffee.“What about Stone’s things? Any large shipments coming in?” Ryan asks.“Nope, I have everything I have,

Stone’s POVWhen the plane hits the tarmac, Bella holds me back while everyone else deplanes.“What is it baby?” I ask as she straddle me.“Why didn’t you tell me any of that?” She asks, settling on my lap.“You had me blocked on everything,” I tell her honestly.“You could have told Slate, or the guys,” she tells me, holding my shirt.I bite my lip not wanting to tell her. But as we look into each other’s eyes, she understands.“You were afraid it was one of them?” I see tears about to fall, so I lean up and kiss her pulling her close.“Baby, I cleared them for the most part. But keeping you safe is the only thing I care about. So, I played it close to the vest. It was actually one of TJ’s guys. I didn’t even get the chance to deal with him, TJ did it,” I tell her, and she pulls me close to kiss me.“Thank you for keeping me safe,” she tells me.“It's the reason I breathe,” I tell her, going back in for another kiss.“Oh, hell to the no,” Raymond says as he enters the plane.“Ray, he

Stone’s POVWhen I thought she had forgiven me, I could have walked on air. I slept better last night than I ever have. But she watched as everyone who loves her, let me know just how much of an asshole I am. Yeah, I get it. But nothing in the world prepared me for her.“Thank you all for loving me,” Bella starts. “I may have been lonely looking for my mate all these years, but I never for a moment felt unloved. What Stone did, he did to me. I understand seeing me hurting was painful for you all too, but the real pain is mine. So now that you all have had your chance, I am asking you all to give Stone and I time, privacy and space to figure out the next steps. It will be a decision we make alone. And let’s not forget he has Justin, Raymond and Jack to face when we get home.”Everyone laughs and Wesley releases me.“Oh, can I call Justin?” Joshua looks all too happy to make this call.“Wouldn’t it be better to catch them off guard. Think of their faces,” Bella smirks.“Oh, yeah, catch
