“I will wait for you, Zaia. Take as much time as you need. I’m not going anywhere.” I open my mouth to tell him I am not looking to move on when he places a finger on my lips and shakes his head. “Don’t reject me now… I said I’ll wait… because I am ready to, whether that’s weeks… months… or even y
I tug at the door, and it pulls open. Not locked? My heart skips a beat. Who was so careless as to leave it unlocked! Especially when we have so many guests around. Even if it’s just a public hall, the staff needs to be more careful. I will mention it to the head organiser tomorrow. Shaking my h
SEBASTIAN. From the moment she stepped into the hall, she took my breath away. She looked as beautiful as ever, Zaia was always the one that stood out. Even back when other girls fawned over me, she was in her own world, planning her dreams and talking about her ambitions but even then, she won th
SEBASTIAN. Both women turn to me, relief flooding Annalise’s face whilst Zaia’s anger fades a little. Her face paling and her chest rising and falling rapidly before she looks down at Annalise. “I…I didn’t push her, she fell herself!” she says. My heart squeezes as I look at her, tilting my head.
No. I don’t believe it. She tries to pull free, but I refuse to let her go. “Look me in the eye and say that again.” I whisper. Her eyes flash as she glares up at me. “This child is not yours.” This time she doesn’t bat an eyelid as she holds my gaze and with those words, it feels as if somethin
ZAIA. The entire ride home, I’m dead silent. I don’t know what to make of it. Everything that happened has hit me like a tonne of bricks. Atticus knew who I was… I knew I should have changed my first name! I should have worn contacts or changed my hair colour! We were too careless. Goddess, I’m s
When do things get better? “Just get some rest. Things will be back to normal tomorrow,” he says, as our eyes meet. I look up at him and although a part of me wants to believe that, my mind says there are too many red flags. From here on out, I need to be smart going forward. “Good night Atticus
“Where are we going?” Mom asks. She can tell how certain I am. “Where else but to claim what’s rightfully mine…” “Sebastian?” Mom asks, stunned. I tilt my head as I sit down on the bed and shake my head. “No Mom, we are going to the Crystal Shadow Pack.” Her eyes fly open, and she places a hand
To my dear readers,Thank you so much for accompanying me on yet another journey. Some of you have been reading my books since 2021 and others have jumped on through the years. I appreciate each and every one of you.This four-part series has been a rollercoaster ride and I enjoyed writing it, today

“What’s wrong?” I ask sharply, closing the door behind me, surprised when Zaia lifts the trail of my dress so it doesn’t touch the bathroom floor. Neither of us exchanges a word as we look at Valerie, who is battling with herself. “Oh, I don’t know. Never mind. Let’s get back to our men.” She trie
ADRIANA I watch Atticus take a glass of wine and down it in one go as I walk off with Zade and can’t help but snicker. Sebastian’s kids walk over to him and I feel something oddly… I don’t know, just something when he kneels down and compliments Kaia before he smiles at the other three. He’ll mak
ATTICUS I stand up and help her up. As she takes my hand, I feel her slip another Polaroid into my hand. My eyes flash, the curiosity to see it right now as she winks at me. And I can’t resist not wanting to wait. With a swift glance around, I switch her to my other side, placing my hand on her wai
Her skin shimmers when the light hits it and draws my attention to her enticing cleavage. She’s wearing a large choker necklace, one that looks like a sexy collar and it has a large A on it, and I know it doesn't stand for Adriana but Atticus. She's wearing large earrings which match the necklace.
ATTICUS “Finally,” Sebastian says from behind me as Patrick helps me into my jacket. I smirk as I fix it, looking at my reflection. I’m wearing a sage grey suit with a white shirt that I’ve left open without a tie as she will mark me tonight, and I don’t want to make it harder for her to access. “
He smiles faintly. “You really have fallen into the Luna role so perfectly. Look at you fixing my mistakes.” I smirk. “Or being devious, you are too truthful. I’ll text Valerie,” I say, reaching for my phone. “Are you certain about this?” he asks quietly, placing a hand over mine. “I am,” I answ
ADRIANA It’s been a week since I arrived here and I already feel at home, although at times I feel a little overwhelmed by the luxuries I am given. Atticus is indeed wealthy. He’s a businessman on top of being an alpha and even with meetings, training, pack stuff to do and everything else in betwe
