“My father was a very powerful Alpha.” “Were you close to him?” I nearly slapped myself as soon as that question left my mouth. “No.” I was relieved by his answer. “My turn,” he said, surprising me. Before I could ask him what he meant, he asked, “Why did you transfer to my class when you don’t
Lila’s POV Valentine bowed her head to me, a smile playing on her long mouth and her white, razor-sharp, teeth being revealed. She was big and glorious; I had never seen anything like her before. This place was so life-like and incredible as well. I could practically feel the mist of the ocean on m
Enzo’s POV She was looking at me like she had seen a ghost. The color in her face was gone and her oddly colored eyes were wide. Max could sense that she received her wolf and insisted that we go and see her right now. But as I stood in the doorway of the infirmary, staring into her eyes, I realize
No. I couldn’t tell anybody. “I was poisoned,” I tell her that instead. I hadn’t had a chance to tell her because everything happened so quickly. Her eyes widened in shock. “What?” She gasped. “What do you mean you were poisoned?” “It was wolfbane,” I explain. “Somebody at my party tried to po
Lila’s POV “Are you out of your mind?” Rachel shouted as I hung up the phone with Scott. I began toward the door. “You can’t just go there. He could be dangerous.” “I can’t let him hurt himself,” I say as I grab my coat. “It’s not your problem to fix, Lila,” she told me, following closely behind.
“Scott, what the hell!” I growled at him. “I told you; I want what you deprived me. All. Of. It.” “You’re delusional,” I said in return, placing my hands on his chest, and getting ready to push him away. “Get away from me,” I warned through my teeth. “Don’t fight it, baby,” he murmured. His mo
Lila’s POV By the time I could form words out of my mouth, Scott was already snoring. I stood frozen at the door, just staring at him. That’s all I could think to do. Hearing his words caused my heart to ache. She hated me because I was a Volana wolf. I know my kind isn’t accepted by some; they fi
“Because you tried to poison me,” I say in a hushed whisper, keeping my eyes on hers. “That’s quite the accusation.” “It’s not an accusation, it’s the truth. Scott told me everything.” “And what exactly did Scott say?” She asked, a smirk appearing on her red and glossy lips. “That you poisoned
“Did you hear?” Bri asked, a hint of a smile on her lips. “That my son was kissing your daughter?” I asked, raising my eyebrows as I looked down at a very red-faced Kayla. Bri nodded, and then we both glanced at Asher who was staring at Kayla with a pained expression on his face. Awe, my littl
I smiled and nodded as I stepped around her and back down the stage. As I walked back to my seat, my eyes glazed over at Enzo who was beaming at me. My heart swelled at the sight of him smiling. I could see how proud he was in his eyes, and it instantly made me teary. How was it possible to love s
Lila’s POV “Today marks a new beginning. It is a chance to redevelop ourselves and tell the universe the kind of people we want to be. Today marks our many successes and our many failures. A chance for us to screw up and then redeem ourselves. A chance for us to fall in love all over again. Today
I smiled at my toddler as I placed him in his highchair. “Pancakes it is,” I said fondly as I went over to the freezer and pulled out the pack of frozen mini pancakes. I put a few on a plate and popped them into the microwave. After I sent the timer, I made both Asher and Coope a juice cup and I
Lila’s POV 2 years later Asher woke me up bright and early as he did every morning. He’s lucky I love him so much. Enzo wasn’t in bed when I woke up, which made me worried for about 2 seconds before I remembered that he told me he had to clean up his stuff from the arena that morning. It was
She held up a light blue bear with a polka dot bow tie. This was the only toy that could get Cooper to sleep. “Oh, goddess,” I said with my face warming. If I couldn’t even remember my son’s bear, how was I going to do motherhood? Enzo took the bear from my mother and then went to pick up the
Lila’s POV “They are both Volana wolves?” I whispered, staring at the pups. My mother and Diana brought me the twins so that I could see for myself. When I was met with two pairs of violet eyes and two pairs of blue eyes, my heart swelled with joy. Tears instantly filled my eyes as I held my two
Enzo smiled at my words and then he cleared his throat before he began to speak. “I will always be your protector,” he said in return. “I’ll do whatever I have to keep my family safe. You, Cooper, and Asher, are my family. I will never let anything happen to you three. I know these last couple of
Corrinne and Flynn rushed to my bedside to look at their nephews. “They are so cute,” Corrinne whispered. “Lila!” I heard Bri say as she rushed toward me and threw her arms around my body. “You had us all so scared.” “I’m sorry to worry you guys,” I said through my tears, smiling up at Becca a
