They betray one another.“I have thought long and hard and have decided that from this day forth, all werewolves will have their microchips removed, and nowhere will it be requested to state that they are human or werewolf. That is something that we should never have legalised. I request the public
VALERIE.A wedding is a beautiful thing.I mean, sure, we can be with someone, love them to death and always be there beside them, but matrimony…. The combining of the two beings, much like marking a mate, is beautiful.Uniting two souls as one through a vow to love and cherish one another forever i
“Ugly girls, but Uncle looks cool. I look cooler though,” Xander whispers from where he’s sitting next to Sebastian.“Xander…” Zaia warns.I don’t think anyone is more relieved than Zade when they reach the front, he lets go of the girls and they stand to the side excitedly. After a few moments, the
ZADE.Dinner isn’t too bad, although I had an unexpected person sitting on my left. The Menace himself. He seems to get bored easily and I’m his latest interest. He was adamant that he had to sit next to me. Although, to everyone’s surprise, Sia had also wanted to sit beside me. Of course, the Menac
“Oh… like a shift… so when you go to hell, Uncle, will you shift before you go?”I chuckle quietly.Hell. You got that right, kid.“Xander!” Zaia scolds, appalled. “I am so sorry, Zade!”“He isn’t wrong. Yeah kid, I will. But don’t worry, when I go to hell I’m taking you with me.” I smirk, making Xa
“Want a smoke?” I ask, offering him one. He looks up with a start, clearly not having heard me approach. He glances down at the cigarette packet I’ve popped open. He looks at it as if taking a second to understand what I said before he gives me a grave smile.“Thank you… son.” He takes one and I tak
VALERIETwo Months Later…Shelby died exactly one week after her wedding day, it broke my heart knowing I could do nothing. Something as doctors we often face, we try our best, but it still doesn’t mean we can work miracles.My only solace is that she spent her last days surrounded by her loved ones
“I love you,” I say the words I don’t need to because I’m sure he can see it in my eyes.“I know, but I love you way fucking more,” he murmurs, kissing my forehead softly. I close my eyes, relishing in his touch before another bang makes him growl in irritation and he lets go of me.“They are doing
I nod, smiling slightly. “Yeah, thirteen. And she has, a lot of time has gone by hasn’t it?” I agree, looking at her. Even her… she’s not that girl anymore. So much time has gone by and yet… seeing her all dressed up like this makes me picture a life we can never have.If I didn’t kill her brother.
~ ZION ~My eyes widen as I see Uncle and Milena staring one another down right after she gave me the finger, for goddess knows what reason.Fuck, I didn’t think he’d be here today. He hates these things. My stomach twists with unease as I stride across the hall.“Uncle, this is Milena, my girlfrien
“Careful, Tobias,” one of the men warns.I sip my champagne. “I assure you; I am very critical of him too, but what I do know is he topped in every field in comparison to every other alpha in the state. He is known to be fair, reasonable, and strong enough to handle the pressure that leading the sup
~ MILENA ~“I know. Nice to meet you, Mrs King. I’m Milena,” I introduce myself as I offer her my hand, but she moves closer, giving me a hug.“Lovely to meet you, Milena. Call me Zaia.” She moves back and looks at Valerie. “This is my good friend and Zion’s aunty, Valerie.”“Nice to meet you, Docto
~~~ An hour later we are walking into a luxurious glamourous venue where the security is intense. Nothing went by undetected and I’m glad the broken vase piece is clay because we were checked over with metal detectors at the second stop before a third set of guards checked any bags. I’m not carryin
~ MILENA ~“So, you’re really not going to give me a weapon to carry?” I call through the door as I get into the dress he purchased for me. It’s gorgeous, a plain deep maroon with a slit down the left thigh and pools on the floor. It pushes up my breasts, and the corset is damn fucking tight. It’s a
I clench my jaw. “No. Nothing.”She snorts. “Right, so want my help or not?”“How can I trust that you won’t just fucking walk away?”“I told you why I was sent here. What would walking away get me when I learned fuck-all about you? Like really, what do you want from me, Zion?”“Something that will
~ ZION ~“Do you want to tell me what the hell you’re doing with a human!” Dad snarls, trying to control his anger. “This is something I’d expect from Xander, not you.”“I’m not a child that you need to tell off, Dad. I am capable of making my own decisions. You shouldn’t have come here.”“Oh really
He glares at his phone as it goes to the answering machine and turns his head to the men who had hurried in behind him, looking tense. It’s clear Zion may be their boss, but Sebastian King is still his goddamned father.“Call Zion and tell him to get here immediately.”“Yes, Alpha.” One of the men l
