“One way or another, Paul and his crew are going to find out about her. Once they do… you are going to want to be close to her so you can protect her. Volanas are very strong, some might actually be dangerous if they had lost their way. But something tells me that Lila isn’t dangerous at all, and sh
Enzo’s POV The scent of honeysuckle grew stronger the closer I got to the packhouse. What was she doing there? School starts tomorrow; there isn’t a reason why she would be over. Although, I have been ignoring her calls and texts. So, maybe she was there because she wanted to talk to me. What
It wasn’t until Dee loudly cleared her throat that we stopped. “Maybe you should take this somewhere more private?” She suggested trying not to look at us as she continued cooking. Lila’s face reddened as I put her down. I grabbed onto her hand and pulled her with me. She went without hesitati
Lila’s POV HOLY HELL!!! Did he do what I think he did??? “Yes!” Val chuckled. “Lila! We’ve been marked!!” Enzo just marked me. I reached my hand to touch the tender mark on the back of my shoulder blade. It still hurt a little, but not much. It didn’t hurt when he did it; in fact, it felt
“You mean that?” I asked, peering up at him. He reached his hand out for me to take. “Of course,” he said with a smile. “Now, let’s go get dinner.” I breathed out relieved as I grabbed his hand and allowed him to pull me out of bed. I walked with him, my hand still in his, as we walked out of
Lila’s POV I stared at Dee with shock; she had seen the mark so quickly. I didn’t even realize she was standing there. Soon, murmurs erupted from around the dining room, and everyone was excitedly chirping. “Did the Alpha mark her??” “Had he finally found his mate?!” “I knew something was
Enzo turned to me and smiled. “Hold on, let me fix myself a plate,” he said as he continued to place food on his plate. Dee went back to work and others were talking amongst themselves. Once Enzo was done, we went over to the dining table and sat down. I stared at my food with a frown as Enzo
Enzo’s POV My mother sat in the backseat with bruises and cuts occupying her face. Her hands and feet were bound together, making it impossible for her to move, despite her desperately trying. Her mouth was also covered in tape, so she couldn’t speak but I heard her screaming through the tape. I
“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
