Waylon shook his head, something he'd been doing every five minutes since meeting this fiery little wolf. He forced himself to walk back across the room and sit down on his own bed. He was already breaking every code and rule for her. He was not going to make things more complicated for her than they already were by adding to her confusion.As male and female wolves, flung together in close quarters for extended periods of time, it was natural that sparks would start to fly between them, especially since their mates were absent and especially because Waylon's mate was dead and Dani's mate bond had been damaged severely by the betrayal that her wolf and that she as a human had experienced.If they'd just been working together day in and day out going home to their mates it would have been fine. Unnoticeable even. But that was not what was happening. They were in a high stress situation, sleeping in the same room and Dani was hoping to never see her mate again.Waylon's wolf was an A

Dani emerged from the bathroom, a towel wrapped around her body and another hiding her hair, releasing a cloud of steam as the door opened. She'd' been in there for a while and the pizza had arrived. Waylon had placed the pizza she'd ordered on the table near the door. He'd ordered pepperoni and had already eaten half of it while watching stories about the missing "newlywed bride," Andraste West, on the news. There weren't any interviews with Luca, only pictures of him standing next to a giant tree in his tux as Dani walked towards him for their "wedding" and Waylon assumed this could only be because the Alpha male was tracking them down, at that very moment.After a few seconds rustling through her bag, Dani disappeared back into the bathroom before emerging again in her nightly outfit of shorts paired with a thin t-shirt. Her hair was down now, and she'd combed it out. While it was still wet, Waylon could see that she'd dyed it pink."I'm so dead." he muttered, mostly to himself

Waylon stared at the back of the bright pink bob, bile rising in his throat, as he imagined a hundred and one ways he might die. He had promised to protect his Luna and what had he done? Mated and marked her less than a week after her induction ceremony, while she was in such a fragile state. "Waylon? Waylon? Are you alright?" A pillow hit him in the head for the second night in a row, although if he was honest, on the previous night he had thrown the first pillow.He jerked awake, eyes staring at the ceiling. There was just enough light coming in through the space between the curtain and the window to see where he was and he wasn't back home in his own comfortable bed and Dani most definitely was not in bed beside him. Looking over in the darkness, he was able to reassure himself that Dani was safely tucked into her own Queen sized bed, and was entirely untouched, thank the Goddess.That dream had been too much. First to have dreamed of his own sweet mate, for the first time in y

"I come here everyday and I already told the three young men who were here yesterday that she came in and ate here two days ago. Someone said they saw her leaving with this nice young man who lost his mate, Waylon, but I can't say if that's true. Are you police? I thought that they were police. I know they went and tracked down the man who saw her in Waylon's truck and then they took off. I think they said they were detectives. They were definitely wolves too. And they were driving this shiny black car." An elderly woman who was sitting outside a restaurant had looked carefully at Dani's photo before offering them an outpouring of information. "This man, Waylon, can you tell up about him?" Alpha Vos asked in a gentle tone. "Oh yes. I've known him since he was a pup." The woman smiled, obviously pleased to be sharing her thoughts with someone who would listen. "He's such a pleasant young man. He's always willing to help others. His father was a good man too and our town just hasn't b

"This is what they wear on patrol. Blue with the soft body armor over it. Or under it depending on where you are." Dani nodded. The officers were level with the back of the truck now and she had very little doubt that they knew exactly who was in the car. She felt her canines lengthened and pushed her wolf down as she took slow, deep breaths. There would be no shifting in front of humans today. "Excuse me, Sir?" The older of the two men had reached Waylon's window and Waylon smiled at him in his most friendly manor, as if it would somehow make a difference. Dani heard a sound and her attention was drawn away from what the man was saying. There was the sound of gravel popping under tires as another car pulled off the highway. This one was an SUV. Waylon had rolled her window down too when he had stopped the truck. Taking a deep breath she could smell the brakes of the truck, and the sharp scent of the evergreens in the forest. "Waylon." She whispered his name, in a voice so low sh

Dani felt teeth sinking in just above her right shoulder and snarled in pain. She kicked out with her back legs and slammed her weight backwards towards her attacker, attempting to throw him off balance. She was at a disadvantage because as a She-Wolf she was quite a bit smaller than every male in this fight. But she had one thing going for her. She was nearly certain that the three men who had arrived were sent by Alpha Harding and if that was the case then they couldn't harm her. Well, at least not too badly. If there was one thing that Dani was certain of, it was that Alpha Harding wanted her back in his hands alive and conscious so that he could begin his sadistic torture all over again. And it's always a little easier to fight someone when you can kill them, while they are trying not to hurt you too badly. Dani turned her head and nearly managed to sink her teeth into the large wolf's chest but just as she was about to make contact, he surged back onto his feet and shook her har

Dani mentally patted herself on the back for not letting a single tear spill over as she said the last word. The older wolf let out a low whistle and shook his head. "You don't think the two of you can work it out?" He asked after a few moments of silence. Dani frowned and shook her head. "I only ask because he's going to a whole lot of trouble for a guy who's going to go along with what Alpha Harding wants and who plans on rejecting you. If he was going to do that he could just say the words and it would be finished and over with." Laying back flat against the seat, Dani closed her eyes. "I can't do it. I can't go back. I can't have him fight a war for me. I can't raise a family alongside Lyra Harding. I can't-" her voice trailed off. "But if Lyra weren't having his kids?" Waylon asked in a quiet voice. She was quiet for so long that the two men looked at each other and wondered if she had fallen asleep. "I don't see the point in thinking about things that won't happen. This is w

"Since your memories seem to be far clearer than my own, why don't you jog my memory. I have no idea what I'm supposed to be remembering.""We had a picnic that year to celebrate the opening of the week. My mom had spent all week planning it. Our house was tense. I didn't know that Dani was my little sister then. I wouldn't know for a long time yet. But her mom was having a really hard time back then and went on a bender. She dumped her on our front door with a little pink suitcase. I don't remember exactly how old she was, but five or six I think? That's got to be around right. I think she was missing her bottom two teeth.""Anyways, my mom told my dad to take her to one of the old ladies in town to watch her and he told that she could go fuck herself. He hadn't really spent any time with Dani and I guess he was curious what she was like. Fuck, she was just like him, except not evil. Stubborn and willful and clearly Alpha-born. I think he was proud of her after spending an hour wat

This is the last chapter. Thank you all for supporting me! Wish you all the best in life. Lots of love!"Come on Dani, you can't be late to your own baby shower!" Stella was dragging her down the hall as Dani rolled her eyes. "I can't move that fast anymore Stella. I know that you've never been pregnant yet but ask Emery. It slows you down. Especially twins." "She just can't wait to see her Bestie. Fern. They haven't gotten to see each other in a month since the last council meeting of Alpha's when Kent was officially sworn in. Do you know how moppy my husband has been since he lost his third in command?" She turned her eyes accusingly on Dani who ignored the question, instead turning towards Stella. "I thought I was your Bestie!" She said in a teasing tone. "We're all best friends you guys." Stella linked arms with the other two women as she walked between the two Lunas, slowing her pace. "And when is the next time we're all going to be together?" "Probaby when she pops?" Emery

"Now lets see if this fits." He helped her slide the ring onto the fourth finger on her left hand and she finally got a good look at it. The ring was a simple, gorgeous, round cut diamond and it fit perfectly when he slipped it onto her finger."I love it." She said, throwing her arms around his neck and burying her face against his chest. "It's perfect." As she pulled away her eyes drifted back outside to the valley below. "You still haven't told me where we are. Where did you buy a home?""Kittilä." He replied, staring out the window at the beautiful white landscape below.She shook her head. "I have no idea where that is.""Lapland. We're in Finland in the Artic Circle. I promised you Northern Lights. I know it's early in the year still but so help me I'm giving us our best chance at Northern Lights on our week long trip. At least we're pretty far north this time." "We could just wait a bit until it's later in the year.""I don't want my mate to have to wait for anything after

"Where are we?" she asked as he began to lead her, blindfolded, towards the door of their personal jet. It wasn't tropical or humid. In fact, it was rather cold and she hadn't even stepped outside yet.Dani had slept for so long on the plane that she had no idea how long they'd been flying. They could be anywhere at all in the world. And she was impatient to know where Luca had taken them and what exactly his plans were. She had never been good at waiting for surprises."Kitten, you told me that you were going to let me make this a surprise for you. Don't try to peak now." One of his hands was on her side, as he tucked a long puffy jacket over her shoulders."Is this new?" she asked as he helped slide her arms into the sleeves."Here, step. How do these boots feel?" he ignored her question as he helped her into a pair of comfortable new boots that she couldn't see."They feel perfect. How long have you been planning this? And where are we?" Her hands, which were now being warmed

"Do you know that you are approximately eight weeks pregnant?" The doctor's eyes were glued to her face when she asked the question, as Dani sat on the bed frozen, feeling her own eyes grow wide."I- I-" whatever it was she had thought to say was trapped inside her head so she let out the breath she only just realized she'd been holding and tried again. "I guess I had begun to suspect it in the last few days. I'd just started to feel sick. And the healing thing.""The healing thing?""I don't know if you noticed my old injuries? Dani began."Yes. Your wolf actually was able to heal most of your injuries before you got here. There wasn't all that much to do. You didn't even need stitches. It was impressive. But we checked you over carefully for other injuries and we could tell that there were old injuries that hadn't healed the way they should have if you'd had your healing abilities intact, and that those were both bone breaks and the ones that included your old scars.""Just bef

It was morning when Dani woke up in a hospital bed in New York City. She blinked, gazing around at the brightly lit room. In a moment Luca was by her side. "This room is insane." she whispered, her throat feeling scratchy and dry.Somehow Luca had managed to get her a corner room with glass windows that made up a huge portion of the walls with incredible views of the city. Before she'd spoken and woke him up, she realized, he had been sleeping in a comfortable looking recliner. And her bed was much more comfortable than a typical looking hospital bed. The sheets and blankets looked like they should have been in a fancy hotel."The doctor will want to know that you're awake. They wouldn't tell me anything until you woke up. But it looks like your healing is accelerated again for some reason. As soon as they removed the knife I could tell that it wasn't like before. Your wolf started to help with your healing. I should have noticed it earlier in the cuts and bruises from your fight wi

Dani knew that Luca had won his fight, somewhere behind her, when she smelled the blood of Beta Reed spill across the cold tile of the floor. She knew Beta Reed well. He'd taken his turn torturing her when she lived here. He was every bit as cruel as his Alpha and she felt her snout curl in an approximation of a smile before she focused back on the battle before her. She had an idea of how she might take down this Alpha, but it was risky.Could she get Alpha Harding to let down his guard because he believed her so weak she wasn't worth guarding against? It would be ridiculous for him to do it, but he was an Alpha, and nothing if not arrogant beyond measure.Dani charged at him again, doing the exact same thing she had done the previous time. This time he sent her sprawling with another powerful blow of his paw. She noticed that his claws weren't even extended. He'd never once hurt her in his wolf form. He preferred to torture her as a human.He'd hit her hard and she'd slid all the

Dani shoved down the wave of nausea that tried the push its way up her throat. She didn't have time for any of that. If she survived the attack she would worry about what the way she had been feeling these past few days might mean.She hadn't gone into heat. What were the odds of getting pregnant if she hadn't gone into heat when she was with Luca? Hell, she'd never gone into heat once in her entire life. Privately, she'd believed it was because Harding had done something to break her body, between the hard physical abuse and the injections. She'd intended to talk with Luca about it, but the time never seemed right. And she hadn't really known if her body didn't work the way the Goddess had intended it to, which had made it even harder to bring the subject up. After all, what exactly would she say.When she'd tried to bring it up with Dr. Evans, back at Harvest Moon, the doctor had ordered an ultrasound and some blood work and had then assured Dani that everything looked to be in wo

"Thank you for joining us Fern." Alpha Harding hadn't looked up, and Stella, with her now human hearing abilities, hadn't heard the frail looking girl arrive, but when he said her name, every head in the room immediately turned in her direction.The little maid looked nothing like she had when she had first knocked on the door to Stella's room. Stella remembered that Alpha Harding had mentioned earlier that "they" had picked out a dress together. Stella was certain that Fern had had no part in picking out this dress. Like so much of Lyra's clothing it was crimson red, just like the lipstick that was now smeared across Fern's full lips.The dress itself was simple. It was cut low on top, with Fern's small, full, round breasts, which fit her frame nicely, nearly spilling out of it. On the bottom it was so short that Stella could tell that the little maid's fingers were itching to tug it down so that it would cover more.As a child who had been forced to wear many dresses that she was

"It smells like summertime. Like rainbows. Like everything that's good and pure in the world." Waylon was following close behind Dani, as he had been since she first left Alaska, but she had never felt so tempted to give him a good hard smack upside the head. "Head in the game, Parker. What are you drunk?" she hissed the words under her breath as she moved forward through the dark tunnel, her steps slow and silent, her mind vaguely registering her own surprise at knowing his last name. "If I didn't know any better I would think that you just found-" she let her whispered words trail off in the middle of her sentence.No. That was impossible. The odds of what she had almost suggested were a thousand to one and it would be cruel to give Waylon that sort of hope, especially when they were on this sort of a mission and she had no particular reason to believe that it was true. It was more likely that the poor man hadn't gotten a good night's sleep in the last week, since he was so worri
