I was overwhelmed by the situation, but a small improvement came when Tyrone said, "I'll let you get to know each other better and I'll go to my office." With those words, the cold left the room, which relieved me so much that I almost fainted.Amanda, on the other hand, radiated warmth and from first impressions, she was a very warm person. She and her son were like night and day.She sighed and said, "Don't take it personally, he can be a grumpy guy if he's had a long day. You should never take that too seriously."It was hard for me to imagine that this man could even be in a good mood, but I refrained from saying anything.In a friendly tone with a slight smile, I replied, "No, don't worry."Amanda looked at me again and asked, "Didn't he let you change? A long journey must be difficult in that dress."Yes, at this point I would be incredibly grateful if I could finally change my clothes.I shook my head because the possibility had never existed. The man picked me up and we were o
Unfortunately, yesterday evening wasn't a dream because we were in completely unfamiliar surroundings. Sure, I had already looked at this room before going to sleep, but I hadn't paid much attention to it because I was too tired.Sleep or staying still was out of the question, so I scooted to the edge of the bed and swung my feet over the edge.Oh, goddess.I really was in a strange house and under the same roof as a heartless alpha who was unfortunately my mate.I sat briefly and looked around again. It may be a nice room, but given where exactly I was, you could do without it. Nevertheless, it was recognized as a guest room, which was mostly sparsely furnished.There was this huge bed that almost ate you up with its softness. Otherwise, there was a large wardrobe made of light wood and a matching chest of drawers. Although the house was certainly ancient, the furniture in it was ultra-modern and you couldn't find a fault with it.I stood up, my toes touching the soft carpeted floor.
I had taken my time showering, even though cold water could be cruel, but I still needed it. It got your circulation going and made you wide awake. The tiredness had been conquered and would probably stay away from me for a while.Luckily I found a towel on one of the shelves, I hadn't thought about it before. Although it was logical that you could always find something like that in a bathroom.I had wrapped the towel around myself and was currently wondering what I should wear. The dress wasn't an option and I slept in my pajamas.I looked at the ceiling and groaned in annoyance. However, aseemingly small problem was a good distraction. This allowed me to suppress my current situation and let it fade into the background.Aurore asked, "Could we make a deal?" She sounded worried, which alarmed me, but I remained composed. "Sure, what exactly do you mean?""One of us should always stay strong, then the other can have a nervous breakdown in peace. So if you can't hold it anymore, then
That hit me like a slap in the face. I was separated from them and, if I was unlucky, I never saw them again. Essentially, I had lost her and was trapped in a house with a strange man who scared me.Tyrone said, “Welcome to the Darkmoon Pack.”With those final words, another wave came over me and it was powerful enough to almost bring me to my knees as it was so overwhelming. I gave everything I had to stay firmly on both feet and always looked back at him.The connection to the whole pack was palpable and I didn't miss the fact that it was much larger than my previous one. There were many members, of which I was now a member.Tyrone looked at me and said, "You're the first one who doesn't make a sound when taking the picture."I raised an unimpressed eyebrow and asked, "Why should I?""My pack is much stronger and has more than four times as many members. A recording has brought down werewolves that come from a place larger than your old one."Aurore growled and said, "My dear, you u
If we accepted him seriously, then we were trapped. He could find us anywhere, which would make running away pointless. This would practically seal the fact that we would ultimately complete the Mate band.We had to avert all of this somehow and for that, we needed a good strategy.I was still standing in the same spot, desperately running a hand through my hair. I closed my eyes to better concentrate so nothing else could distract me.Aurore answered confidently, "We will find a solution. It can hardly be our fate that we have to submit to this man. Rejection is not an impossibility."But how should we do that?Tyrone obviously didn't want that when he was already talking about the next step.After taking a deep breath to calm myself, I asked, "And how?""You ask a good question and we'll find a good answer to that soon."At least one of us had the optimism within us. For me, that was a big miss.My wolf cleared her throat and said, "You should change into something else. We don't ha
I closed the door behind Amanda and turned to her. She walked to the middle of the room and then turned to me. It was kind of weird that she had the same eyes as Tyrone.Sure, many children had the same eye color as their parents. But it was also the same shape and this dark green was something of a rarity. At least I had never met anyone with that particular color.She had a smile on her face and asked, "How are you?" This was a very logical question that started most conversations. It was good that she took it into her own hands because I couldn't think of anything, it was all too new for that."Good thanks and you?" I managed to put on a slight smile, which I was very proud of."Also. How did you sleep?" She looked around the room, so I automatically did the same. There wasn't anything wrong with it. Except of course the color, which in my opinion was represented too often."Good, good. By the way, it's a nice room." A small part of it may be a lie, but politeness demanded this sta
In the entrance hall, we took the door that was at the back. It was exactly the one Amanda had stepped out of yesterday when I met her.A corridor came into my field of vision and it was narrower than the one on the upper floor. There were also some paintings hanging here. Presumably, everything was papered with them, but these were works of art and not relatives or whoever was pictured on the others.Amanda continued to talk, but I was distracted by the surroundings so I barely noticed. That was rude, but there was a lot to see. Besides, she was in a torrent of talk and didn't want to be interrupted.Just as we reached a door and Amanda was about to open it, I heard a cold voice behind us say, "Aurela."I automatically turned around and immediately spotted Tyrone coming towards us. Joy looked completely different, but that's exactly the emotion you should expect from him.I had hoped that I wouldn't have to see him again today, but unfortunately, he was brutally murdered. I had to pu
However, that was cut short as Aurore growled and yelled at me, "Get a hold of yourself, Aurela!" It was so loud that I could barely contain myself from wincing.Tyrone immediately got my full attention again as he ran over to my side again.Why did he do that?Why was he just looking for me?Why?!When he placed a kiss in the crook of my neck, I tensed. That was too much of a good thing, more of a bad thing. I was lucky that the dress was high-necked, so we had no skin-to-skin contact."I had to look for you for far too long." The crowning moment came when a slight growl was heard.However, I understood something at that moment.That wasn't Tyrone.No.This was his wolf who had gained the upper hand, which is why I had to deal with him.Addressing my wolf, I said, "Aurore, his wolf is your problem." You could hear in my voice how confused and completely overwhelmed I was.She mumbled, "Um, no thanks. You're doing well, I don't want to bother you any further.""Angsthase!""You're no
