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
Enzo’s POV “Are you sure about this?” Bastien asked once I explained what happened with Sarah. “Why would Lila want to keep this from me?” “She thinks there’s good in Sarah and doesn’t think that punishing her will do her any good. For whatever reason, she just wants peace.” “Yeah, that sounds li
Justin was shaking on the ground; he wouldn’t dare to struggle against me and that pleased me. I liked bringing terror to those I attack. Unfortunately, he was a student, and I couldn’t actually do any harm to him. The fear evident in his eyes was enough satisfaction. I released him, letting him sc
Lila’s POV “Remind me again why you have to go to the Calypso pack tonight?” Rachel asked, watching me pack my suitcase from her bed. “Because Professor Enzo is my ride to my pack,” I tell her. “Per my father’s orders…” I add. “So, why go to his pack?” “I guess there’s an issue there he needs to
“Let’s get you inside,” he said, sighing, as he turned toward the front doors. I nodded, following closely behind him. “I’m Ethan by the way; the Beta.” I was right, he was the Beta. “I’m Lila,” I answer. He paused as soon as we reached the inside of the house; he looked at me, a curious look in
Lila’s POV In the picture, my grandmother, Corinne, was sitting in this same vanity, in this room. I frowned and glanced around. Could this have been my grandmothers’ old room? Did she live in this packhouse? My mother never mentioned that my grandparents lived in the packhouse. I couldn’t get
“For over a decade,” she finally spoke. “I was here when Enzo’s father was here.” “Wow,” I breathed. “So, you knew Enzo when he was a boy?” “Yes,” she answered. “He was only 9 when I met him. He was a thin pup, and he was terrified of being here without his mum.” She looked saddened by the memory.
“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
