“King Alexander can afford it, I promise,” Enzo continued, reassuring me.“Oh, no, that’s-” I winced. I hadn’t meant to insult the Black Lycan clan. “I’m sure he can. I just didn’t expect him to.”“Of course. You are our guest, after all,” he said with a smile. “Now please, don’t even check the pric
~Grace~The room was silent as everyone’s eyes watched me. I was the dazzling star of the night, and I outshone even the Alpha King.Liam, who had been smiling at a guest, froze. I stared right at him, watching the smile fade from his eyes, even though it stayed on his lips.Yes, look at me. Look at
“Don’t touch m-” I started, when I felt a strong embrace grab my waist and pull me away from Liam.I was gracefully spun around, and I found myself face-to-face with Alex, who held me close to his chest. He gave me a cocky smile. He had placed himself between Liam and I.Oh my goddess. I felt myself
~Grace~Alex moved his face close to mine, and I instinctively leaned away. What was he doing?I felt blood rush to my face, and my ears burned.“I-I-” I was at a loss for words. For once, I couldn’t hide the fact that he flustered me.Alex cracked a smile, and I scowled, pulling my face away from h
~Grace~“The rare moonstone earrings are sold to the Lycan King!” The auctioneer announced.“Hand-crafted from the finest moonstone, they are the only pair of their kind in the world! A suitable prize for the Lycan King,” he continued.Alex gracefully walked down the aisle, heads turning to watch hi
~Grace~“ALPHA KING LIAM REPLACED HIS LUNA FOR AN OMEGA AT CHARITY BANQUET!”Headlines reporting on the fiasco between Liam, Alex, and I came out the very next morning, and were plastered on the front page of every news site.Everyone was talking about it.This had been the first backlash Liam had e
“Samuel, I’m so glad to see you,” I rushed out, breathless from the scare.He looked at me nervously, and slowly slid his hand off of the door handle. “What are you doing here?”He sounded cautious. Liam must have threatened him.I shook my head with a sigh. “I need your help. Do you know where Liam
~Grace~“I need to speak with you in person,” Alex told me. “I’ve already spoken to my lawyer, but I don’t want to discuss details over the phone.”I crossed my legs, leaning back on one hand, sinking into the mattress.“Where do you want to meet?” I asked, stiffly. I was still upset that he’d call
~Grace~ Alex’s hot breath breezed across my skin as his wet tongue licked my cut. I stared at him, dumbfounded. What was he doing? Tasting the blood? Cleaning it? There was water for that! “A-Alex-” I finally stuttered out, not sure what to say. His eyes were closed, and he only gave a gentl
~Grace~ How were the Rogues getting the upper hand? I thought the Black Lycan clan was fierce and powerful! None of the other packs dared to mess with them. Looking around the garden, I watched in horror as Lycans women retreated, chased by the Rogues. Alex tore through the battlefield, a blac
~Grace~Dancing with the Lycan King at his castle in front of his whole clan was not on my checklist for this year.Although I had danced with him once before during the charity banquet, this time, it felt different. More intimate and personal. And I felt… nervous?We both danced gracefully, flowing
~Grace~I look at myself in the mirror, wearing the dazzling moonstone necklace and earrings Alex had given me. I’m dressed in a tight, black dress–the signature color of the Black Lycan clan. I didn’t want to wear something that would make me stand out too much.I fidgeted with my hair, moving stra
~Grace~“I can’t believe he did that!” I shouted, into the night, enraged.“I know,” Alex responded, without emotion.“What crazy, delusional-” I started, but Alex placed a hand on my shoulder. He had an odd smile on his face.What was he thinking? Nothing about this situation was funny!“Liam and S
~Grace~Where am I?It was dark and cold, and I felt hard, uncomfortable ground beneath me. Groaning, I pushed myself up off of the ground, my arms feeling heavy.What happened? The last thing I remembered was looking for Samuel in the forest, and then I heard a noise…My heart dropped. Oh, no! Had
Rolling my eyes, I put it back down. Liam had texted me at least a hundred times within the last couple hours, and now she was texting me too? As if she cared. Liam probably asked her to, since I wouldn't respond to him.I continued writing, trying to remember where I left off. Right…, Alex showed m
~Sophia~“What the hell were you thinking?!” Liam’s voice roared.I stepped back, feigning tears, immediately lowering my head. “I-I’m sorry-”Secretly, I scowled at him, my face hidden, pointed to the floor. So what if I had ordered the seafood platter instead of the charcuterie board for the banqu
~Liam~“Alpha,” Sophia whispered, wrapping her cold arms around my neck from behind, “You look unwell. Are you in pain? Perhaps I can ease it a bit.”I sat in my bedroom, where Grace used to stay. It felt so empty without her. I sighed, staring at her abandoned belongings, still boxed up in suitcase
