Joanna's Point Of View

The woman and the Beta were acting suspiciously.

When the Beta turned to Janice, the woman looked at me strangely. I stared back, if she knew me or had something to say, she should speak up. But looking at me like that was not polite.

"Janice, are you going to reject me? But you didn't give me a chance to prove myself as a mate, that's the least you can do," the Beta pleaded to my friend.

But she shook her head frantically.

"No! Why did you follow me? I made it clear, I don't want you to be my mate," she cried desperately.

"You're being unreasonable now, Janice," Zane interjected. "Everyone is overjoyed when they meet their mate. And you haven't even said a word to the Beta, and you already know you want to reject him?"

He frowned in disbelief as if questioning his sister's sanity.

"Listen, let's not get too emotional here," Beta Cleo tried to calm everyone down. The man was not aware that he was the cause of all this fuss. Janice didn't want to

    Still Joanna's Point Of ViewThe next morning, as we left the packhouse, there was indeed a fancy car awaiting us. However, contrary to what Beta Cleo had mentioned, there was no driver present; instead, Janice hopped behind the wheel herself."I told Cleo I'd take the wheel. We can do without any eavesdroppers," she chuckled, starting up the car. As I glanced around, it was clear that this vehicle's interior was both luxurious and comfortable, definitely worth a fortune. "Well, as long as you make sure we arrive safely. Zane should not regret trusting us with his expensive possession," I remarked. But before we could pull up, someone rushed out of the packhouse."Where are you going, mate? Why are you leaving without telling me where and how long you'll be away?" Beta Eric opened the door before Janice could even stop him. Before he could lay his hands on her, she darted out of his way."Keep your hands off me! And who are you again?" she snapped at the man."I'm you

Because that would get me into serious trouble," Joyce sighed, exaggerating as she pulled us into a bear hug."Zane told me I could get two for the price of one," she jested. "Holy Goddess, Janice! You've grown into a real bombshell, girl. Wait till my clients see you on the runway, the men's eyes will pop out of their sockets," she chuckled."No. There is only one man for me. But he has a few hurdles to overcome before I can claim him," she answered dryly. I rolled my eyes, she knew better."Come on, let's talk business first. There is so much to be done. I have a number of filthy rich customers who want a sneak peek at the new designs," Joyce continued, already wringing her hands at the prospect. "It's not a large group, but together they can offer me a carefree year if they like my collection."I laughed, of course, she was overacting. Joyce was already rich enough

    Joanna's Point Of ViewWhen I got up the next morning to start my first day at work, I felt so excited.With a smile on my face, I jumped out of bed and rushed to get ready. Half an hour later, I stood in front of the mirror, freshly bathed and dressed. I spent a little more time on my makeup, I wanted to look good in case I ran into those amazing eyes again.I hope to meet the owner, I was sure he would want to see me again. The admiration in his eyes had spoken volumes."Look at that. Someone is impatient to go to the city today. Is this a mere coincidence or is there a special reason for this?" Janice looked at me teasingly as she leaned against the car. She had some bags under her eyes, indicating that her night was not so perfect."No, I just feel great. But I can't say the same about you."She sighed deeply, opened the door, and got behind the wheel.I rushed to the passenger side. I frowned at her."Tell me, what went wrong? Yesterday, you were fine when we came

    Still Joanna's Point Of View"Clyde, this is Joanna. She is new here and will be of service to you."The name suited him perfectly; he looked so aristocratic. I quickly pulled on my dress before shaking his hand. As he wrapped his long fingers around my small hand, I felt it again. Slight electric shocks ran through my body, making me feel a rush of emotions. My body was on fire, my nipples hardened and my pussy turned into a wet pool.I recoiled from my own reaction, lowering my eyes in confusion.Then I felt his lips on the palm of my hand and I was lost. Dreamily, I looked up at him, straight into the blue sea, which now stared back at me knowingly. Guess I’m busted, he noticed my reaction to him."Joanna. It is a pleasure to have you as my personal assistant. I'm sure you have the perfect clothes for me," he said softly, but his voice was no less masculine. "We came here from Latin America without a single piece of clothing. And I don't feel comfortable with the on

How did that happen?"I shrugged, it was a mystery I was struggling with too. I looked at Janice nervously, I didn't know if these men were also werewolves. She noticed my hesitation and raised her eyebrows."Janice, I want to tell Clyde about my accident. Is he like you?" I asked her, hoping she understood what I was getting at. All three of them laughed loudly, drawing the attention of the people at the other tables."Dear Joanna, if you want to know if we are werewolves, yes we are. We just came from Latin America, but all werewolves here, Miss Human." I stared shyly at my hands on the table."Come on, tell me what's going on. You can tell me everything." His words meant so much to me, he almost felt like a good friend."Well, Janice's brother and Beta Cleo found me by the side of the road in a ravine, took me to the

Certainly a plus in this whole plan of Clyde.Actually, I am pretty excited about moving in with Jace and Clyde. Their reputation was not at stake here, I simply didn't want to seem too excited. But I also wanted to avoid upsetting Zane, I owed him a great deal. He saved my life and then offered me so much more. I will try to convince him that he was important in making the decision to leave his safety, even though it was inevitable.When we finally reached the penthouse, I couldn't believe my eyes.The luxury here was incredible.

    Still Joanna's Point Of ViewZane wasn't particularly excited when Janice and I informed him about our decision to share an apartment with strangers.To our surprise, Beta Cleo turned out to be an ally and played a key role in convincing Zane to agree. While I suspected he had his own motives, there were moments when I thought that maybe he genuinely cared for Janice but was too scared to admit it. His behavior, avoiding her during the day, not speaking directly with her, and seldom meeting her gaze, hinted at deeper emotions. It wouldn’t shock me if they eventually became a couple."I'm not entirely sure this is the best decision. At Moonlight Seekers, we have a full team ready to support you. The town is nearly two hours from here," he countered. "How quickly could we reach you if there's an emergency?"Exhausted from her relentless attempts to push her brother to a decision, Janice banged her head on the table. She spent the last hour weighing up the pros and cons,

Meanwhile, prepare yourself to be the ideal mate when he proposes."These words from Janice kept spinning in my head, haunting me.Long after she had drifted off to sleep beside me, I was still awake thinking about their meaning. The perfect mate, how do I do that? I wasn't a werewolf and no one here was mated. Not Zane, not even Beta Cleo.The only ones who were kind of mated were Janice and Beta Eric. But they weren't exactly the best examples. I needed to find someone else to help me with this, maybe a couple that had been happily mated for years. Or two people with extensive knowledge of the subject, then nothing could go awry. I wanted to be the perfect mate for Clyde so that he no longer had the need to look for his wife, who belonged to someone else.But what about me, what if I had a family of my own?Childr

I need some private time with my husband. Also, try to get Jace to come with you.”Two pairs of eyebrows shot up, and their eyes stared at me curiously.“What are you up to?” Janice asked, a sly smile playing on her lips. “The expression on your face promises something fierce. Whatever you're planning, make sure we can get out of our hiding soon and face the Alpha. It's time to settle things once and for all.”My sad mood had completely dissipated, my thoughts now laser-focused on my plan.Clyde had given me a hint of his preferences in our intimate moments, and I had carefully considered the options.

    Crown Prince Clyde’s Point of ViewListening to my woman beg for my affection was heartbreaking.Never before had she needed to do that, a single touch from her was enough to make my head spin. Hating to see her like this, she put aside her pride and offered herself to me, fiercely and totally. I would have liked to give her everything she asked for and more, but it was crucial that I held my ground until she was willing not only to desire me but to choose me, to keep me. This new Joanna must love me if she wanted me, it was a package deal, a complete and unbreakable deal.In her subconscious, she knew how we were together, and her body yearned for that connection.

    Three days on the yacht, and we were all having the time of our lives.We jumped and played in the open sea, savored delicious food, watched movies together, chatted, and sunbathed on deck. The men sometimes tried their hand at sport fishing, but so far, there had been no catch, something we women teased them about mercilessly.We had since sailed out of the Hudson River and into the vast expanse of the Atlantic. At the moment, we were bobbing in the open sea, but yesterday, I had spotted a green blur in the distance that looked like an island.We were sunbathing on deck again, me wearing one of those minuscule bikinis I had found in the small closet in my room. Clyde had thoughtfully ensured I had plenty of clothes on board, mostly bikinis and casual wear.Next to me lay Alia and Janice, both also in swimwear, though a lot more decent than mine.Their mates were implacable, they insisted that they cover their bodies completely, despite their fervent protests. I guessed mated wolves

    We stared into each other's eyes for a few timeless seconds.I couldn't believe he was finally here, in front of me again. How many nights had I dreamt of this precious moment? I had thought I’d lost him forever, already resigned myself to the inevitable, to a life without him.But here he was, my Prince, my husband!“Clyde,” I whispered, the name a sigh of pure happiness, a feeling so profound it made my heart ache with longing. My eyes, I was sure, reflected all the love I felt for him, a love that had never wavered. For a fleeting moment, I saw a flicker of doubt in his eyes, those beautiful blue gems I could never get enough of. Holy goodness, how I had missed him, his warmth surrounding me, the sense of security he always offered.I wrapped my arms around the magnificent wolf and buried my face in his thick fur. I took a deep breath, mimicking a gesture I had often seen Clyde do to me, and a soothing sense of calmness swept over me. An incredible sensation of belonging and secur

All three of them - Alia, Janice and Rubio - had their eyes on me now, their expressions stern and unyielding.“Princess, you have to tell us now,” Alia said firmly. “Do you want to be the Luna of Woodland, or do you still choose to be with the Crown Prince? I need your answer now to determine which way we go.”A sudden surge of joy welled up inside me, a feeling that seemed to originate from the very depths of my soul. Was it still possible to go to Clyde? The thought filled me with an overwhelming sense of longing. I wanted nothing more!‘Tell her we want to go to the Crown Prince, Joanna. I'm dying here. We really need to leave,’ the voice inside me urged, startling me with it

What are you doing here?”I grabbed her arm, trying to control the sudden surge of panic. The premonition I’d carried all day was starting to take shape, solidifying into a tangible fear.Had Joanna left? Had she changed her mind at the last minute? And why hadn’t the guard at the gates notified me?A thousand unsettling thoughts raced through my mind.“Calm down, Alpha,” Ludwina soothed, offering a reassuring smile. “Everything is fine. The Luna has gone to the lake with her friends to relax. A warrior is with them, nothing can go wrong. Let her unwind, I’ll send for her as soon as it’s time. This is a picnic basket I'm sending for them. Relax, Alpha.”Relief washed over me, so potent I almost staggered.Damn!

    Alpha Abel’s Point of ViewToday was my mating and Joanna's Luna ceremony.But throughout the day, a nagging feeling persisted, a sense that something was amiss, as if this idyllic scene could shatter like a fragile balloon at any moment.It was all too perfect, too good to be true.Joanna had been so agreeable lately, the resistance she had shown upon her return had suddenly vanished. She even initiated our touches, our kisses, as if she had fully accepted our mate bond and was ready to spend her life by my side.But something was definitely not right. Even Hex was suspicious.My Head Warrior and the Beta of Moonlight Seekers ran in their wolf forms beside me, we were on border patrol. I wanted to ensure safety myself tonight, nothing could go wrong, not on this momentous occasion.

    Still buzzing from our earlier conversation about the upcoming ceremony, we stepped inside the Spa unit.The cheerful atmosphere, however, quickly dissipated as a heavily made-up middle-aged woman approached us, her presence radiating a distinct chill. Her aura was dominating, her smile failing to reach her thickly lined, cold eyes. She was garishly dressed, her intricate gown trailing along the floor like a scene from a historical drama.“You must be Joanna,” she greeted me, her voice laced with a distinctly hostile undertone. “The woman who Alpha Abel brought to the pack.”She paused, her gaze sweeping over me from head to toe, her lips twitching disdainfully.“I'm Lily,” she continued, her tone dripping with condescension. “Your hostess at this Spa. Let me take a good look at you.”She reached out and grabbed my arm with two fingers, as if she was picking up something dirty.Her touch irritated me, violating my personal space.
