“Both,” he answered without hesitation. “It was stupid. That woman meant nothing to me. She was just a quick fuck. I shouldn’t have brought her home and into our bed—”“You shouldn’t have had sex with her at all, Gavin,” I said simply, my brows pinching together.He sighed, rubbing his hands over hi
Silver’s POVI wasn’t expecting to see Shirley standing in the middle of the palace foyer, especially so late at night. I looked around, expecting to see Elliot as well before my eyes shifted back to Shirley’s. She watched me like I was her prey, making me uncomfortable.My heart was hammering in my
Truth be told, I had fallen in love with Elliot. I knew the feeling wasn’t mutual and I’m not even sure when exactly it happened. But he was so kind and tender behind closed doors; he treated me better than anyone has in my entire life. I loved the way I felt wrapped up in his arms after we made lov
Elliot’s POV“What are you doing here, Shirley?” I asked Shirley as soon as Silver left the room. I had spent all week drowning myself at work and trying to figure out the best attack plan so I could properly lead this team, I hadn’t really seen Silver at all.Part of me felt guilty, but another, mu
“You look gorgeous, Silver!” Rebecca cooed as I walked out of the bathroom. I wore a red evening dress with straps that went around my neck and pushed up my breasts, putting them on display for Elliot. It wrapped around my figure perfectly. Rebecca also lent me a diamond necklace with some red rubie
Silver’s POV“Luna Crown, did the Alpha leave?” The waiter asked as he returned with the champagne. I stared at his empty spot across the table feeling nothing but numb. He asked me out on this romantic date, and then he abandoned me for Shirley.I understood that Shirley was hurt and needed him, bu
I grabbed my phone and checked it multiple times, expecting to hear from Elliot at least once. But he didn’t bother reaching out to me and that hurt more than anything. I feel as if he cared so little for me and now, he was stepping on me like I was nothing more than a small ant.I pulled out my mes
Elliot’s POV“You really didn’t have to come all the way here. It was just a scratch,” Shirley innocently said as she batted her lashes at me. I stifled an eye roll because she sounded frantic on the phone about getting hurt and now, she was playing it off like it was nothing. She was right though;
“I love you, Mrs. Crown,” I said to her.“I love you, Alpha,” she said, with a wink.“Congratulations!” A voice said from nearby. I turned to see Silver’s friends coming to hug her. Cara, Alison, Emma, and Rebecca. Rebecca switched her allegiance to the Crown pack and now she works in my packhouse a
Silver’s POV“You shouldn’t be in here,” the mortician said as we walked into the cold room in the basement of the hospital. I had never been in a morgue before and I wasn’t sure what I was expecting. But it was dark and gloomy down here.“I need to see my husband,” I demanded.The mortician narrowe
Rebecca sat on the other side of my bed and wrapped her arms around me.“I was so worried about you,” she whispered. “Oh and get this… Stella was arrested for fraud!”I gasped and stared up at her.“What?”“She messed with the wrong painting,” Rebecca chuckled, shaking her head. “I might have put a
Silver’s POVI wasn’t out of it for long. My eyes immediately flew open, and I gasped as if I hadn’t been breathing this entire time. Whoever was sitting by my bedside was nearly thrown out of their seat and I heard a small squeal coming from her lips.“Get the doctor,” I heard another voice saying.
“So, what are you saying?” Elliot asked when my words failed me.“I want to give you the choice,” she told me. “You can stay here and live a wonderful afterlife with your family and start anew. You could have children here and live as immortals in my spirit world. You will be together and live as ma
Silver’s POV“How is this possible?”She smiled at me.“Well, we were sent to the Moon Goddess world when we died,” she explained. “I was only an infant. In this world, things are different. We can never die because we are already dead, but we can age if we want to. There are tons of places to go an
“You have nothing to be sorry about,” he whispered. “I made the choice, and I would do it all over again. My only goal was to protect you, Silver… I’m sorry I couldn’t do that.”I shook my head and wrapped my arms around him, holding him close to me.“You did protect me…” I whispered. “I love you so
Silver’s POV“Silver, my child. Wake up…” I heard a soft and very familiar voice saying.I moved my head, expecting to feel some sort of pain, but I felt nothing. I felt at ease and even the ache in my chest was gone. When I opened my eyes, I was staring up at the night sky. I was lying on a bed of
“Silver!” It’s over!” Charlotte cried. “You did it! You defeated Scott; his spell had been lifted!”That seemed to have brought me back to the current moment; I stopped stabbing Scott, and I let out a cry that I had never heard myself make before. Charlotte wrapped her arms around me and pulled me a
