In the following weeks, I found myself enveloped by the warmth and enthusiasm of Mariam, Sybille, and Natali.

Clyde, on the other hand, was deeply immersed in settling into the new business. He had countless meetings with staff, government officials, and attended numerous business luncheons. Together with the management team, he was tirelessly adapting the success formula of the Mancini empire to fit the needs of the local market.

Meanwhile, we women were engrossed in planning the wedding.

Mariam had flown in ten exquisite dresses from renowned designers in America and France. Each dress was a masterpiece, making it nearly impossible for me to choose which one to wear as I walked down the aisle. We each had a different favorite, which added to the challenge of deciding on the perfect makeup and theme for the reception.

Every night, I collapsed into bed, utterly exhausted.

Clyde was no different. He often came home late, finding me already in bed. He would snuggle up to me, his hands

    In the Woodland Pack, America ...'We need to find mate, Abel. Time is running out and she's slipping away from us.' My wolf, Hex, barked at me like an ill-mannered dog, issuing commands as if he was the one in control. Ever since that morning when we woke up alone in bed, he's been discontented. He accused me of scaring away our mate and causing her to run off.I confess, I got a bit carried away during our sex, but honestly, I never imagined it could be this incredible with a mate. She was absolutely amazing, her orgasms and responses revitalized me and heightened my senses, leaving me wanting more each time. From now on, there can be no one else for me, my mate is etched in my memory.And then this Alpha wolf of mine placed all the blame for her escape on me! I vividly recall how he sidelined me and took the lead in our intimate moments. He was more assertive, dominating her completely, taking her in every possible way. After each of

    The Royal Jet taxied over a first-class runway in Latin America until it came to a stop.As the pilot opened the door, a gorgeous young woman stepped out onto the platform. The suit on her body fit her beautifully, accentuating her sexy curves and all. It was a designer's, which revealed that she was not exactly destitute. Demonstratively, she slid the sunglasses onto her nose and looked around as if she owned the place."Alira!"Another woman, about her age, ran up to her. Recognizing her, Alira flew down the stairs and fell into her friend's arms. The two hugged each other tightly and even did a little dance."Girlfriend! Here you are at last. It took you a long time to get here, but now everything is falling into place. I have my great-uncle on my side. He is the one who tied the knot and ordered you to come."The two women walked to the waiting vehicle with their arms around each other's waists."So Alessandro wasn't really thrilled to see me again?

Judging by the look on his face over the last few days, he felt the same way.Lately, the only place we met was at the dinner table.Mariam had forbidden us to speak or see each other unsupervised, she had moved me to her suite, despite Clyde's loud protests. Georg, my father-in-law, was exiled to the guest room, which he surprisingly took lightly.Natali and Sybille were appointed to be my bridesmaids, Carlo and Alessandro were Clyde's best men.Goddess, I missed my fiancé, a week without him was like a century in a desert.

    Still Joanna's Point Of ViewAs I gazed into the mirror, it was hard to believe that the beautiful woman looking back at me was indeed myself. The artists had worked their magic on me, expertly crafting my makeup. My eyes were beautifully highlighted with a flaming shadow in soft colors that suited me perfectly. And complementing the look from head to toe, my dress was skillfully tailored. Mariam truly outdid herself, she persuaded me to choose this dress yesterday so the seamstress could make the adjustments in time. The result was absolutely stunning. My heart leapt at the thought that Clyde would be seeing me in a few minutes. I was certain he was in for quite a surprise. God, I could hardly contain my excitement about being with him. Tonight we would finally be in each other's arms again, but this time as husband and wife. "Stop daydreaming again, Joanna. I can already hear the organ playing, which means you need to make your entranc

    When Clyde saw us coming, he heaved a sigh of relief.His eyes were fixed on me, filled with a glow of joy and adoration. It was as if the world around us faded away, leaving just the two of us in that moment. There was a depth of love in his eyes that made my heart swell. Then he was overcome with emotion and I saw his eyes water, a single tear running down his cheek.Alessandro patted him reassuringly on the shoulder and whispered to him as he watched my entrance with an approving grin. Sir Georg and Mariam also stood there, glowing with pride. I could see that they too were overcome with emotions they were trying very hard to hide.But Clyde's gaze never left me. It was a look that promised eternity, a silent vow of undying devotion. Our silent interaction was interrupted by my father's voice."Clyde, I give you my only daughter in good faith. From this day on she is yours. But you have to promise me that you will always make her happy, treat her with respect, more than you did in

    In the Mancini Clan..."My King, the kidnappers were one hundred precent werewolves. They covered their scent. They took the highway south and then left in helicopters," Clyde's Secretary Jace reported. "We are now investigating which pack they belong to. Not all of them are wealthy enough to own an aircraft and that brand of vehicles, so we may know within hours which trail to follow."Clyde sat up straight on the bed, still unable to believe that Joanna had been taken. And now he learned that ordinary werewolves were behind all this."How dare they mess with me! Do they even know who I am? Let me know as soon as possible which Alpha dared to challenge me, I will deal with him personally. His last minutes are ticking away. If that bastard lays a finger on Joanna..."Clyde half-shifted into his Lycan, his wolf unable to bear the thought of not being able to protect Joanna. Xin adores his human mate, he was the one who drew Clyde's attention to her when they first met. He had describe

    Prince Clyde's Point Of ViewDamn it!!! I didn't see that coming.If Joanna were the mate of a werewolf, it couldn't be anything but an Alpha. This operation was far too big to be set up for an ordinary pack member. Rather than approaching me to discuss the issue, he resorted to kidnapping my wife like the criminal he truly is.Shit no, I couldn't leave this case like this. Joanna was mine, I even had the wedding book in my pocket as proof of our commitment. Alpha should have kept his hands off my wife and just called in the Council. If he had done so, Joanna would undoubtedly turned his ass down, she would have rejected him and choose to stay by my side instead. Humans don't experience a mate bond like we do, and whatever attraction she felt wouldn't be enough to pull her away from me permanently.Sybille's words deeply troubled me. Joanna betrayed my trust by spending the night with the Alpha and keeping it from me. That hurt, a lot.Probably she couldn't challenge t

    In the Mancini Family Living Room…Natali helped Clyde to the chair next to her father and sat down on a small couch beside him.In front of them stood Alira, with Jace standing at a distance. The Secretary called Prince Alessandro in the mind link to drop whatever he was doing and sign up to the living room with the utmost urgency. The man was in the study working on his laptop when he received the message.‘What's going on, Jace? I wanted to finish some work to allow Clyde could focus on the case with Joanna. Couldn't you do it without me for a while?’ he asked, his eyes still glued to the screen.‘Actually, no. This whole meeting is all about you, Alessandro. I hate to break it to you, but that lady Alira is here. She has been here for a few days now."With a jerk, the Prince's head was up and his face turned into an iron mask.He knew what his father was up to but had no intention of taking Alira as his mate. What they had was a temporary fling that he had no plans of making into

    Third Party …The atmosphere in the packhouse felt utterly unsettled following Joanna's departure.Even though she didn't interact much with the pack members, to us high-ranking and close staff, she was like our cherished ward who required extra protection and care.

    Crown Prince Clyde’s Point of ViewHaving Joanna around every day was unsettling for my wolf..Xin persistently encouraged me to claim her, leading to frequent conflicts between us. He was impatient and refused to let her declare her love for us on her own terms. Joanna complicated things further with constant physical contact; her accidental touches and gentle kisses on my neck whenever she could send me into a frenzy.All I needed was a straightforward statement that she loved me — loud, clear, and unmistakable —spoken without any pressure from me. Sometimes I sensed she was on the verge of saying something important but then changed her mind at the last moment. In those instances, my heart almost leaped out of my chest with anticipation that my long-awaited moment had arrived. Yet she hesitated, likely lacking the courage to reveal her feelings fully.'You're just a coward, human!' Xin scolded me. 'You hide behind all sorts of excuses. Even if she doesn't say it out

    A week had gone by since Clyde and I began working together, and it felt like we were perfectly in sync.We successfully brought the project to completion, and it turned out to be highly profitable for our company. Tomorrow marks its official launch, a moment I eagerly anticipate. Clyde greatly appreciated my contribution, complimenting me throughout the process."Joanna," Clyde remarked one evening as we finished up our tasks. "You've done an amazing job. Be sure to dress up for tomorrow because I'm taking you out on a date after the ceremony."His words sent a thrill through me, yet I couldn’t ignore the invisible wall he had recently erected between us. He rarely touched me now, though he didn't object when I leaned against him. My feelings for him were intensifying, and I'd moved beyond mere infatuation as these emotions ran much deeper within me. Clyde was the man I loved.I pushed away my fear of potentially going back to Moonlight Seekers and leaving him behind. This evening, I

    Seated comfortably beside Clyde in his luxurious car, I marveled at the smoothness of the ride and enjoyed the refreshing cool air from the air conditioning.The leather seats were soft and plush, giving me the sensation of sinking into a cloud. I glanced sideways at Clyde, who remained focused as he expertly navigated through the buzzling streets of the city."We're nearly there," he said, his voice resonating with a deep, masculine tone. "I can't wait for you to see the project I'm working on. Your feedback is something I’m really looking forward to."I nodded, intrigued by the chance to contribute to his work. I was determined not to give him the impression that I intended to rely on him financially. Although we hadn't discussed specific working conditions, living in his home rent-free and sharing meals with him made a salary unnecessary. The added benefit of assisting him was being able to spend all my time by his side.As Clyde started outlining the details of the investment proj

    Joanna’s Point of ViewAs I entered the magnificent villa, a wave of familiarity swept over me.It felt as though the very walls were whispering to me, eager to reveal their secrets. The further I went, the stronger my sense of déjà vu became; it was as if this house was a part of me.The detailed carvings on the wooden beams and the gentle hum of distant music felt familiar, even though I couldn’t recall ever being here. As I absorbed the surroundings, a young woman emerged in the hallway.Given her strong resemblance to Clyde, she had to be his sister. As I turned my face towards her, she observed me curiously, a question burning in her eyes that I couldn't quite identify. When she finally stood before me, it seemed like she considered embracing me but ultimately opted for a handshake."Hi, I'm Natali," she greeted with a gentle smile that didn't fully illuminate her almond-shaped eyes. "Clyde is my big brother and he's shared so much about you with me. One thing's f

    Still Crown Prince Clyde’s Point of ViewOnce the jet was stable in the air, Joanna unbuckled her seatbelt and settled onto my lap.After our escapade a few hours ago, she became even more affectionate. Once she'd packed her belongings from the penthouse and set her suitcase next to mine in the hallway, she came straight over and wrapped her arms around me. She stayed close until we got back into the car, unwilling to let go of me. Even Janice and Jace couldn't resist making some lighthearted comments about it all.Janice was coming with us to Latin America.She was reluctant to leave her friend behind, and it wasn't difficult to persuade Zane to allow her to join us. He thought that after she rejected her mate and dealt with a unrequited love for the Beta, a change of scenery could be just what she needs at the moment. Meeting new people could be a welcome distraction and even allow her to refocus her life."Aren't you going to take a nap, love?" I asked Joanna as I g

    I gently placed her on the hood and leaned in between her legs."You are incredibly beautiful. Seeing you walk in front of me like that drove me wild with desire," I murmured against her neck. "Joanna, I want you to be a part of my life forever."I slowly lowered the top of her dress from her shoulders and began kissing her passionately.She reacted immediately, and I could feel the desire coursing through her veins.The air around us was charged with her arousal, she was so ready for me.My lips traced a path to her breasts, and as soon as I found a nipple, she arched forward, offering it into my mouth while tossing back her rich black hair. Her nails dug into the skin of my shoulder as she released a soft moan.Goddess, this is sin, but I'm addicted to it.Her hands move up to playfully tousle my long hair while I focus on pleasuring the erect nipples."Is it true, Clyde? Are you attracted to me?" she asked, her voice tinged with longing.“Let me show you how much, my Queen.”My lip

    Crown Prince Clyde's Point Of ViewThe fashion show was set to kick off in an hour, and Joyce had taken every possible step to ensure a successful start. Invitations were sent out to all notable officials within a fifty-miles radius. The night before, there was a reception where interested guests could preview the designs and meet the models. Joanna was in her element. If only she knew how she and my mother made it a habit to push promising designers by wearing their creations. The women enjoyed their charity so much, many designers found their way to international stages through my mother's referral.Every evening, I watched her from afar with admiration, the way she engaged with others, her spontaneity, and that infectious laugh.Goddess, how I loved this woman!A few nights ago, I couldn't stick around for too long since duty was calling in Latin America. And with Alpha Abel nearby, there was no room for taking risks, he might make his way here as well.But despite my persistent

    “Keep your cool, Alpha,” the Beta snarled from the other end of the line. "I've heard you got quite a scolding from the Council for abducting Joanna. You're already losing credibility, and my information can restore your reputation."I was shocked to realize that this despicable person had been my Beta for years. We had worked closely together, yet we were never true friends. Since his father had served as a Beta under mine, it was inevitable that he would take over. Now, seeing his true nature revealed, I couldn’t help but question why it hadn’t been obvious to me all along."What do you gain from this?" I asked him, trying to keep my anger in check. "Is your plan just to hold onto the millions and dodge getting hunted down?""That sounds like a good deal," he responded with a hint of mockery. "But I'm driven by revenge now. I lost my mate because of all this chaos. She's an Alpha female, but since I've become a rogue, she's turned her back on me and rejected me."“I can’t undo that
