Lila’s POV I felt my soul leaving my body. Everybody clapped as Cassidy-Ann turned to face me. I was off stage, so nobody saw me right away; Enzo, who stood beside me, glanced at me sideways with a frown. “I think that’s your cue,” he muttered. “I…I can’t move…” I said under my breath, my en
Everybody clapped and my face grew hot. I had no idea I was selling some of my artwork. I thought they would just be on display. “Are you the same Lila that lives in Elysium? Of the Nova Pack?” Someone else asked. I heard some gasping at his question and others silenced completely as they wait
Lila’s POV I was in complete shock that Leroy was offering me a real scholarship to this school. He had a look on his face that made me believe every word he was saying. It was the sincerity that tugged at my heart, and I knew at that moment that I needed to make a real decision. “I’m not sure w
My mother lived her life as a rogue by choice with other rogues. She was a Volana that stayed in hiding and the best way for her to remain hidden was in rogue territory. Connie knew this information. So, for Connie to ask my mother to go to a busy airport in front of that many people, it infuriated
Lila’s POV I didn’t like Connie, but I never wanted something terrible to happen to her. Not like this. There was a void in Enzo’s eyes, and I knew something was seriously wrong; he had just gotten terrible news and my heart ached for him. I stared at him for a moment, wondering what could be wr
Lila’s POV “Your mate?!” I asked, staring at her startled. She was still ducking behind Enzo and from the looks of this male nurse across the hall, he was looking troubled by her avoidance of him. I might not have known him, but I felt for him. I knew what it was like to have a mate who complete
All she knew was that her wolf wanted to stop, and she was going to stop at nothing to make sure he stopped. Connie pulled the steering wheel so quickly that the entire car jerked around, causing Connie to fall forward and hit her head. She grew dizzy right away. The cab driver attempted to adjust
Lila’s POV We walked the rest of the way to the cafeteria quietly. Connie kept her head lowered and stayed hidden behind Enzo, afraid that she might run into her mate once again. My heart went out ot him because I knew what it was like to feel rejected. The look on his face I would never be able
“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
