He was also furious with me for letting it get to this point. He never liked Shirley and now he hated her even more for driving our wife away.“Is Shirley really your mate?”That snapped me back to the present moment; my eyes glared at him, and I knew my wolf could be seen through the windows of my

“You’re in love with her.”It wasn’t a question. I blinked at her; was I that transparent? I lowered my gaze, feeling defeated and exhausted.“I can see it in your eyes, Alpha. You can deny it if you’d like, but it won’t do you any good—”“I’m not denying it,” I found myself saying quickly. I might

“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

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.
