“Come on Summer, you can do it!”“Yeah, Summer, keep going!”It was Rose and Chris, cheering me on, as always. Marcus stood next to his father, silently watching me. I was ashamed, mortified even, and only wanted this torture to stop. Arriving at the mud pit, I took a deep inhale: it was always ice
*Summer’s POV:I accepted. I was leaving the pack, leaving to go with the Prince. Marcus looked so sad, and I couldn’t help but ask myself: was this the end for us? For good? He looked up at me, and I didn’t know whether I was feeling pity or sadness, but knowing him like I did, it was obvious he di
“Prince Lucian. Of course, we would be honored to have our daughter mated to a royal Prince. But no lineage or status is worth her happiness. I know of your father’s orders, the race for an heir between you and your brother. I do not wish for my daughter to get caught up in this competition of yours
*Summer’s POV:My last day in the pack was a really hectic one! After leaving the hospital room, I went back to my room and tried to be as helpful as possible, but since I was still in recovery, everyone insisted on not letting me do any chores.“Do you have the golden dress packed?”“Yes, Luna.”“D
“Alpha, please control your beta.” Lucian said, with a dangerously calm voice.“Marcus,” I begged him with a soft voice. “You must not behave like this if you want to be my guard. I’m sure with Prince Lucian by my side, no member of the Red River Pack would dare touch me.”“Indeed. The truce between
*Summer’s POVClimbing the mountain on Blood Ghost was a rush, for sure. I didn’t even need to hold on that tight, he was so big I had no chance of falling. But he moved so fast, my heart was racing when he finally stopped at the mountain top.The view was unmatched. I looked at the tree tops, with
I didn’t know how to properly tell him what I was feeling, especially after our kiss.“I guess I am nervous about meeting your family… the royal palace…everything.”He sighed.“Do you think they would accept me? Knowing who I am and my weakness?”“You are not weak. Don’t ever say that in front of me
*Summer’s POV:Everyone was indeed waiting for me. As I got down from the car, I noticed how some of the men were looking at me. They were probably curious and hadn’t got the chance to see me before.“You, and you, escort Miss Summer to her chambers. Make sure everything is safe and ready for her be
Lucian’s POV: As I walked to the front door of the small, secluded cottage, closely followed by my two fiercest warriors, my Beta Samuel, and the Alpha’s daughter, I struggled internally to stop Ghost from taking over.“MATE! FIND OUR MATE! WE WILL KILL THIS ENTIRE PACK OF TRAITORS AND DOGS!”“Calm
Summer’s POV:Not only did Levi sound stupid, but he also sounded insane, and insanely dangerous. Marry him? When I had two mates already fighting for my attention? The odds of that happening were… zero! I would never mate with him, even if I didn’t have Marcus and Lucian. He made it pretty clear th
We stood there in silence, and I couldn’t help but notice that the maid hadn’t welcomed him in, and that she was staring at him angrily. I don’t know why, but the Beta reminded me of someone. My mind was racing trying to figure it out. I gathered my thoughts and tried to focus on the present problem
I sat down and started piling things up on my plate, without sparing a word nor a glance to my savior. Bacon and eggs, then pancakes with syrup, juice and coffee with cream to wash it all down… This was heaven! I was basically moaning with each bite.“Hmph!” The maid scoffed, and only then did I rem
Marcus’ POV:At one point, I had managed to convince Summer to sneak out with me, telling her it would be easier for us not to be heard this way. In reality, I couldn’t stay put inside that tiny bedroom, with her body so close to mine. So I helped her climb out of the window and we walked and talked
Summer’s POV:As I followed the nurse out and away from the hall, I realized we were actually leaving the pack house again. I tried my best to silence the anxiety that was rising inside me, before asking hesitantly:“Errmmm, sorry, Samantha?”She slowed down, then turned to look at me before smiling
Lucian kept the bag in his hand, looking intensely at it. I was curious to know if he would open it.“My father entrusted me with this, and I haven’t opened it, as instructed. But as I understand, it has been given to the King by Beta Mariana herself.”I gasped. He looked at me, an apologetic look o
Summer’s POV:I walked with Lucian and the small escort the Red River Pack had sent for us, while Lucian’s own guards and warriors followed, forming a small half circle behind us. I was thinking about Marcus’ last words to me, and didn’t pay attention to the whispers around us.“What are you thinkin
I always had a very sensitive hearing, even before my wolf emerged, and at times like this I wished I didn’t. My heart started racing. Was this what this really was about? The Red River Pack warning me and my own to stay away? As if picking up on my emotions, Prince Lucian suddenly halted the horse,
