"We watched each other's backs out there. All he talked about was you, Eve, and the pack, "she shakes his hand back. Eve gets down after a long time, holding on tight. I get two steps before mom runs up to hug me. She smacks my arm and cries. "Never again, Seth. Do you hear me? Never run again. I
Ian pov I had to get away. Seth is back, and I needed a break. Eve was a mess the whole time he was gone, letting me see I wasn't that important to her as I thought. The whole time he was out there, she barely let me get close to her. She cried most nights, and I held her, but as for anything
"Where is he?"Eve asks, looking sad. "He looks like he wants to leave the pack, so I ordered him to stay in Fireside. I need you three to sit and talk. You three need to figure shit out. "Dad looks at us as he talks. Eve sniffles. "Can you tell me where he is, Alpha?"she asks. "By the lake h
Ian pov I'm sitting at the lake watching the water when a light touch makes me jump. "Fuck!",I yell turning to Eve standing there. I want to pull her close, but I refrain. "Sorry I scared you, Ian," she moves closer and sits beside me. "You're too quiet," I say, looking away from her. Her l
"Ian please",she begs as we fuck on the bench by the lake. I kiss her gently and moan for her. My fingers dig into her ass as I move her the way I like. Her lips go to my neck, and she sucks her mark. I engorge inside her, getting a gasp. "Baby I'm about to cum. Cum now ",I order and she cries out
Seth pov I snuck out to make food and see the triplets and fuck did I miss them. I nuzzle Abigail while Michael and Adam sleep on. She stares up at me, and my heart melts. "Hi beautiful," I kiss her head. She just stares. Her beautiful eyes that match her mama stare into my dark ones. She moves
"Seth," she calls as I go to leave the room. "I'm going to grab our food and come back, baby. We will have a breakfast in bed moment and then head to dad's office. He wants to talk to us three. "I smile as she nods. We eat and talk till dad calls, and with reluctance, we head to his office. Eve
Seth pov Eve went quiet after our meal, and as we left but her mom stood staring at us the whole time. "Who do you think her father is?"Ian asks later after Eve goes to check on the triplets. "I don't know, brother, but he must be scary for her mom to flee with Eve," I say back as I clean up t
Beth pov I walked into the pack's holding cells with unhurried grace, one hand resting protectively on my pregnant belly. Victoria sat in the reinforced cell, still managing to look elegant despite her circumstances. Her perfect features arranged themselves into a sneer as I approached. "Come to
Alexander pov Victoria chose her moment carefully. Beth was resting – her advancing pregnancy making afternoon naps necessary – when the auburn-haired wolf cornered me in my study. She'd timed it perfectly, waiting until Melissa was occupied with perimeter checks. "Alex Matthews," she practicall
Beth pov The cleanup after a supernatural battle was never simple. I stood on the main house's balcony, one hand resting on her growing baby bump as I watched the pack restore order to our territory. FBI agents worked alongside wolves, processing both human traffickers and Sebastian's corrupted fo
Beth pov Beth sensed the danger before the warning wards activated. She was in the nursery – still under construction, walls half-painted in forest scenes – when her enhanced senses caught unfamiliar scents on the wind. Her hand went instinctively to her slightly rounded belly, where her pup's ene
Beth pov I first noticed something was different when pack bonds started feeling... peculiar. I was in the middle of a training session with Melissa, working on defensive maneuvers, when a wave of dizziness hit me. But it wasn't just dizziness – it was as if the pack bonds had suddenly gained a ne
Beth pov The full moon bathed our bedroom in silver light as I stood by the windows, my skin glowing with an otherworldly luminescence. The day's events – saving Melissa, confronting Kane, strengthening pack bonds – had left m we thrumming with supernatural energy. "You're beautiful," Alex murmu
Beth pov I found Melissa in one of the pack's recovery rooms, where Sophia had been treating wolves injured by silver. The tawny wolf was back in human form, sitting on the edge of a bed while the witch applied a poultice to the angry red burns on her shoulder. "Beth," Melissa started to stand,
Beth pov In the chaos of battle, I almost missed Melissa's scream through the pack bonds. She was helping Jeremy secure the captured traffickers when the cry for help hit me like a physical blow. 'Beth! They're taking me—' Melissa's voice cut off abruptly in my mind. I spun toward the sound, c
Beth pov The attack came without warning. I was in the pack's meeting room with both Alphas and my mate, discussing territory expansions, when Sophia's warning wards exploded with dark energy. Seconds later, gunfire erupted from multiple directions. "Silver bullets," Roman snarled, already shift
