My Alpha In Shining Armour 07 Dinner
Emily, We were led to the Alpha Quarters as Alpha Kane had instructed, and rooms were assigned to David and me. The moment I entered the room, I exhaled. I did not know how physically and mentally exhausted I was until I sat on the chair in the room and exhaled. The entire ordeal had shaken me to my core. I could see why people believed Jake must have run away. Our pack could not have gotten out of the mess he had created. I was grateful to Alpha Kane for giving us a chance and agreeing to help. It was painful to realise that I would be letting go of my family's legacy, but what is a pack without its members? At least everyone would now have a chance to survive and live their lives. Uncertainty gnawed at me regarding how the Howlers would react to this new arrangement. I hoped they would embrace the change and welcome it with open arms. Similarly, I longed for the members of the Shadow Moon pack to accept my people without bias. It was abundantly clear that anyone who knew u
My Alpha In Shining Armour 08 Breakfast
Emily, Morning arrived, and Hayle, the Omega I had become acquainted with, came to escort me for breakfast. I hadn't managed much sleep, and I knew the fatigue would be apparent on my face. Nevertheless, I freshened up and donned the shirt and jeans provided for me by Alpha Kane. We made our way to the breakfast area, but to my surprise, only Alpha Kane was present. I couldn't help but wonder where David was. The confusion must have shown on my face, prompting Alpha Kane to address the situation without delay. "It will be just the two of us this morning, Emily. Your brother has been served in his room," he informed me, his expression remaining composed. A wave of nervousness washed over me. I hoped there was no issue at hand. Concerns began to surface, suggesting that Beta Carlton might have influenced Alpha Kane to retract his earlier assurances. I made a conscious effort to calm myself and maintain composure. Worrying never solved anything anyway. "I see that you didn't sleep wel
My Alpha In Shining Armour 09 Saying Goodbye To Home
Emily, The time had finally come for us to depart from the settlement. All of our pack members had safely made their way to Shadow Moon. The sense of relief that washed over me in that moment was unlike anything I had ever experienced. Knowing that none of the Alphas who threatened me would be able to harm anyone anymore brought me a profound sense of ease. We received positive feedback from our members regarding their reception in Shadow Moon, which filled me with joy. As we stood in my house, with our jeep parked outside, I couldn't help but feel nervous about leaving everything behind. Our future at Shadow Moon was uncertain, but at least my people would no longer suffer the consequences of my mistakes. "Em," my brother's voice broke through my thoughts, and I turned to face him. He was standing near the stairs, carrying the remaining pieces of my luggage. Since I had sold most of my valuables and continued to do so, I didn't have much left to bring along. He must have been sayin
My Alpha In Shining Armour 10 Passion and Want
Emily, Exiting the shower, I realised that my clothes were not in the room. I had rushed to the bathroom without thinking, and now I needed something to wear. I glanced around, feeling like an intruder, as I searched for the closet. Despite Alpha Kane granting me the room, it still felt as though I was snooping around, invading someone else's personal space. Taking a deep breath, I opened the closet door, half-expecting to find it empty. However, to my surprise, it was filled with clothes. A small envelope caught my attention, placed delicately on the stool inside the closet. My name was inscribed on the envelope, and curiosity compelled me to open it. Inside, I discovered a card. "I hope you like the clothes. I chose them specifically for you. Look beautiful tonight. Kane," the card revealed, causing my cheeks to flush once again. The warmth in my cheeks betrayed my emotions. When was the last time someone had pampered me like this? Alpha Kane was treating me as if I were royalty.
My Alpha In Shining Armour 11 Two Steps Backward
Emily, I could not believe what had just transpired between Kane and me. Even though I had no regrets, I wasn't clear about his intentions, which troubled me. I remained on the couch, feeling awkward and wondering where to go from there. I had just got to the Shadow Moon Pack, and Alpha Kane and I had made out. Was I that quick to give it up? I remembered how things happened between me and Jake and realised I had given my heart away too quickly. I glanced at Kane, noticing the concern etched on his face. Shifting uncomfortably in my seat, I hesitated to leave abruptly, aware that I had initiated this encounter. I had desired him and foolishly expressed my longing, to which he had acquiesced. Unable to comprehend why I had desired him so soon, but I knew that getting burned like this wouldn't be good for my heart. "I am sorry I can't do this," I blurted out, causing him to furrow his brow. "I'm sure you're a remarkable catch, Alpha, but I'm still recovering from a complicated sit
My Alpha In Shining Armour 12 Self Control
Kane, When I first laid eyes on Emily, my heart raced like never before. She entered the summit filled with fear and desperation, instantly capturing my attention. Up until then, I hadn't been fully engaged in the presentations of the day. But as soon as she walked in, everything changed. Blade, my loyal wolf companion, sensed my excitement and couldn't contain his joy. His antics threatened to overwhelm me. There was an undeniable effect that Emily had on me, though I couldn't quite explain why. I had never been instantly attracted to someone before, and it piqued my curiosity. However, I noticed the mark of another man on her neck, and I reined in my emotions, realising she was already taken. But then she revealed that he was missing, and strangely enough, I felt relieved. Little did I know it was the infamous Jake. It must have taken immense courage and risk for her to defy the rules and attend the summit. I admired her bravery and audacity. Emily exuded strength despite her fea
My Alpha In Shining Armour 13 And The Awkwardness Sets In
Emily, I spent the night thinking if I had made a mistake. I would lie if I said I wasn't attracted to Kane, but I knew it was too soon, and I believed I had more significant issues than getting cosy with the Alpha. Nia did not let me rest either. It was as if we agreed when I told Kane I did not want to sleep alone, and I reneged. I meant it, but I would be foolish to jump into bed with a man I barely knew. Although his touch was electrifying, and Jake never touched me like that, I needed to be careful and put my people's needs above mine. Lying awake, I scolded myself for my lack of self-control, realising that it had complicated things. I should have ended it before it became as serious as it did. In those moments, I knew that if he had made a move, I might have succumbed to it because my body craved comfort. But at what cost? Now, I found myself contemplating how my future days in the Shadow Moon pack would unfold. There was no doubt that things would be awkward between Kane an
My Alpha In Shining Armour 14 Some Progress
Emily,I found David, Luis, and Claus waiting at the entrance, appearing somewhat uncomfortable. Our new situation was certainly going to take some adjustment.As I approached them, Luis greeted me with a wide grin."I guess a queen will always be a queen, Luna," he said, winking playfully. I looked away, shaking my head."It's not like that, Luis. He's only doing it to ensure we have representation in the pack since his officers are not fond of us. It's a temporary arrangement," I explained hurriedly, glancing back at him. He nodded, letting the topic fade away."I have something to discuss with you three," I stated, and David led me into their quarters. I was taken aback to see that the place was nicer than I had anticipated. It was a newly constructed building with three separate flats, and I realised that they had been allocated one each but were currently occupying just a single unit.I noticed my luggage boxes in the living area, and gratitude filled me. I asked Claus to assist m

Today marked the culmination of our journey, as we handed over the keys to my brother, David, who was about to reclaim what had been stolen from us. As David approached, his face a canvas of mixed emotions, I could sense the anticipation and thrill radiating from him.

There was a mixture of exhaustion and triumph in his gaze, a silent promise that he had done this not just for himself but for our child and our future together.As the reality of his victory sank in, I couldn't help but feel a surge of hope; I was genuinely free to be with the man I love.

I wondered how many shorts they had stashed away.Kane slipped them on, and wrapped his arms
My Alpha In Shining Armour 64 The Acceptance
EmilyMy heart raced within my chest, its thunderous beats echoing the tension that gripped the air around us. A mixture of fear and anticipation churned within me as Jake's confident acceptance of the challenge sent a shiver down my spine. The world seemed to hold its breath, the fate of my life and the life of my unborn child hanging in the balance.As Jake stepped away from me, people carved out a space in the clearing where the initial struggle between Kane’s men and Jakes’ rogues had ensued to create a makeshift arena for the impending clash. The atmosphere was charged with an almost electric energy, a sense of urgency that spoke of the gravity of what was about to transpire. My gaze darted between Jake and Kane, the two alphas poised to engage in a battle that would determine the course of my destiny.My heart ached with a conflicted mix of emotions. On one hand, I couldn't deny the fear that gnawed at me, the uncertainty of Jake's intentions causing my pulse to quicken. He was
My Alpha In Shining Armour 63 The Challenge
KaneThe air was tense, thick with a blend of anger and confrontation. Jake's accusing eyes bore into me, his voice carrying the weight of betrayal as he accused me of stealing his mate. The accusation hung in the air like a dark cloud, and I felt my own anger rising, a primal urge to defend what I believed was rightfully mine."I did not consent to the severance," Jake's words cut through the charged atmosphere, his voice dripping with bitterness. "You've broken the law, Kane."My fists clenched instinctively, a fierce desire to lash out and silence him. But before I could even take a step forward, Carlton's firm grip was on my arm, holding me back. My friend's voice was a low, urgent whisper in my ear, "Do not advance, Kane. Look around; there are witnesses now. Don't give them a reason to bear witness against you."My gaze swept over the gathering crowd, the residents of Gaines Village and even the corrupt chief himself, all drawn by the spectacle of our clash. Their eyes held a mi
My Alpha In Shining Armour 62 Gaines Village
KaneRichard's voice cut through the tension, each word he uttered exposing Carlos's web of deception. The veil of loyalty Carlos had worn was torn asunder, and the weight of his crimes hung heavy in the air. It was a stark revelation of how he had collaborated with Jake, locking away his conscience and planning to vanish under the cover of darkness, carrying the spoils of his treachery with him. The pack members' anger roared like wildfire, their collective voices demanding retribution.But amid the clamour for justice, the urgent reality remained that Emily's safety was paramount. Carlos's guilt would be dealt with, but my focus was unwaveringly fixed on finding her. With a determined grip, I took hold of Carlos, forcing him to his knees, my fingers tight around his throat. The anger in me surged, a visceral response to the harm he had inflicted upon me by abducting my mate."Tell me where she is," I growled, the intensity of my stare piercing into him, demanding the truth he could
My Alpha In Shining Armour 61 The Rescue
Kane The moon hung low in the sky as we arrived at the outskirts of Samyspring. A sea of towering trees greeted us, their leaves rustling with a nervous energy that seemed to mirror our own. The anticipation in the air was palpable, a tension that crackled like electricity. Richard rode at my side, his gaze a blazing fire of determination – the rightful alpha of Samyspring, resolute in his quest to reclaim what had been unjustly taken from him by his best friend. The gravity of our mission hung heavy in the air, and as we neared the entrance to the pack, a formidable line of roguish figures awaited us. Carlos, it seemed, had been forewarned of our arrival, and his forces were poised for confrontation. There was no room for negotiation; this was a battle that had to be fought.As our vehicles came to a halt, my pack and I disembarked, the air crackling with tension. The transformation came naturally, a seamless shift from human to wolf form. Our muscles flexed beneath the sleek fur th
My Alpha In Shining Armour 60 The Betrayal
KaneArriving at the settlement in the early morning, my mind was racing with thoughts of Emily. The urgency to find her pulsed through my veins, and I knew that every passing moment decreased the chances of a safe resolution. After Carlton dropped me off at the Alpha quarters, I wasted no time. I had to get to the bottom of this swiftly.Brian and Claus were on standby for the impending interrogation of Michelle. I was determined to uncover the truth about who orchestrated this intricate web of deception. I needed to understand why Emily had been left vulnerable, who had manipulated the situation to prevent anyone from accompanying her to the lake house. My suspicion had landed heavily on Michelle, who knew Emily's routine too well.Hurrying into my room, I took a quick shower and dressed in simple attire. Time was a luxury I couldn't afford to indulge in. Emily's safety hung in the balance, and I had to act decisively. Linking up with Doctor Karen, I inquired about my mother's condi
My Alpha In Shining Armour 59 A Misguided Vandetta
EmilyA moment of tense silence stretched between us, the weight of our histories and the chasm of our emotions suspended in the air. I refused to let him see the cracks in my facade, the turmoil that churned within. His presence was a twisted reminder of a past I had fought hard to overcome.Jake's expression twisted with a mixture of anger and hurt. "You think you have it all figured out, don't you? You have no idea what I went through. I loved you, Emily, and I still do," He said, and I could not believe this dude.A fire blazed in my eyes. "Love? You don't know the first thing about love. All you know is manipulation and betrayal." I replied.He clenched his fists, his voice trembling. "I could have killed you the moment I saw that mark on your neck – another man's mark." He yelled at me, vibrating with anger, and I did not care."What did you think will happen, Billy?" I asked him, and his eyes widened."I searched for you and, in the process, found out plenty of Your past and
