Chase’s pov

“Man, you look like shit,” Alexander, my beta and childhood friend, chuckled.

I threw the ball in my hand right at his face. That will teach him to laugh.

“Ouch,” he groaned, rubbing his forehead. “When did you become so uptight?”

I glared hard at him, and swiveled on the chair I was sitting on.

“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me you’re moody because the newly released Maserati had been sold out before you got your hands on it,” he gave me a bored look.

I rolled my eyes, but didn’t say anything.

I couldn’t, not because I didn’t trust him, but because he wouldn’t understand. I didn’t understand it myself.

It had been two days, but the energy I felt when I touched Elodie, was still so strong I could still feel it on the tip of my fingers.

No human, and not many werewolves, carried that type of energy in them, and it surprised as well as bothered me.

I had never felt something strong and intense in my life that when I did, I didn’t know how to act.

I flipped out, which was a total

    I couldn’t believe that after his abrupt behavior and how I was supposed to be mad at him, it had taken everything in me to look away from him.I could still feel his eyes on my body, dragging down from my face to my arms, to my hips, and down to my legs. I could feel him devouring me with his eyes, and it made me squirm.I wanted to run away, but my knees were weak.I wanted to be far away from him because he confused my thoughts, but at the same time, I wanted to be as close to him as possible.I vaguely realized that Hailey was no longer by my side. She must have gone off with some sexy stranger.My mind was in shambles as I downed my drink, the alcohol coursing through my veins like liquid fire. The air in the room got thicker, and I didn’t need to look to know that he was standing right next to me.I kept a straight face as I could feel his eyes burning holes into the side of my face. As if his proximity wasn’t confusing enough, he pulled out the stool right next to me as sat on

    Chase’s pov I heard the soft purr escape her lips, and then it struck me that she was excited by what she thought was our familial binding. She was nasty. I like it.Her eyes fluttered close, and her plump lips parted slightly. A smirk formed on my lips and I leaned down to her ear and pressed my fingers into her hips.“You want that, don’t you? You want to be dominated by your uncle. You want to be my slut,” her body vibrated, and I knew she was enjoying my onslaught of dirty words.I darted out my tongue and licked a long line from the base of her neck to the top of her ear, and she shuddered.Fuck, she tasted as sweet as she smelled. I couldn’t wait to taste her down there.“Chase,” she made a sound between a whine and a moan, and hearing her call my name for the first time, my cock ached painfully.“Hmm,” I hummed in satisfaction.She wanted me, and I was going to give her just what she wanted, but for now, she had to be ready.So I pulled away.When she opened her eyes, I could

    The long awaited wedding day finally came, and I couldn’t help the smile on my face as I watched my mother walk down the aisle.She looked so beautiful in her floor length wedding dress that hugged her curves perfectly. I was seated on the front pew of the outdoor wedding that was held in Daniel’s balcony, and she blew me a kiss when she reached me.I watched with tears in my eyes as she exchanged her vows with Daniel, and they sealed their marriage with a kiss.Chase, who seemed to be avoiding me, was the first to retreat into the house once everything was over, and people were moving to the edge of the backyard where a lake was, and where the reception was to take place.I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed due to our last encounter. Ever since then, my body has been hot and I’d been plagued with dreams of him doing all sort of sinful things to my body.It was wrong, but if he asked one more time, I wasn’t sure I had it in me to refuse.Only now I’d come to terms with it, he seemed

    Moving day.It was time to move to our new home. My mother’s new home at least.I moved mechanically as I stuffed the last of my things into boxes, ready to load them in the moving van.I looked heavenward as a small tear threatened to spill out of my eyes.I shouldn’t be crying. I shouldn’t be crying. I repeated the mantra in my head.In no time, the boxes that contained everything I knew, all of my childhood and adolescent memories, were being stuffed into the moving van.I swallowed the lemon-sized ball in my throat, as I stared at the now empty space that was once my home, ready to be occupied by its new owners.I wasn’t supposed to feel bad. My mother was beginning a new chapter of her life, and it was my duty as her lovely daughter to follow her, but for the first time, I regretted my decision to take a gap year.I didn’t want to be here when all of ours and whatever memories I had of my father would be packed up in boxes. Even though my father hadn’t moved here with us because

    I didn’t even have to be bothered about what to tell my mother when I wanted to head out. She didn’t even notice me all through dinner. Her eyes were solely on Daniel. Almost as if I wasn’t there.That was a good thing, right? Right?Anyway, I was jittery and could barely eat half of my food because of how nervous I was. Chase hadn’t told me where he was taking me, and he hadn’t shown up for dinner.Did he change his mind?I quickly shook my head to clear the thought.Chase didn’t seem to be a man that would back down from his words.“I have to drop by at Hailey’s,” I announced as I left the dinning room, and it would have been no different if I hadn’t said anything at all.I walked to the front door, tugging the hem of my flare dress that stopped mid-thigh. I didn’t know where we were going, but I hoped this would be an “okay” dress code.I took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the intersection of the street. There, I saw Chase’s sports car, and a sigh of relief escaped my li

    I couldn’t have gotten out of there any faster, Chase hot on my heels. My mind was spiraling out of control, and my thoughts were all over the place.Ignoring the weird looks I got from people, I pushed my way through till I bolted out of the front door and took a deep breath of fresh air, a great reprieve from the club that smelled of sex and bad decisions.My mind was clogged in there, and I knew there was no way I was having a rational thought watching all of those people getting whipped in the most pleasurable way possible.“Elodie,” I heard Chase’s deep, velvety voice from behind me.I turned to him and straightened my back. “I want to go home,” I said, looking him dead in the eye.There were a lot of other questions in my mind like why did he bring me here, but I wasn’t sure I was ready to hear the why.He stared at me with calculating eyes, before giving a small nod.“Get in the car.”I hurried out of the cold and sank into the warmth of his foreign leather while he drove.From

    “How was your night, sweetie?” Mother asked with a wide smile over breakfast.“Wow, so you remember me?” Was the snarky reply at the tip of my tongue, but I struggled to bite it down, because the last thing I wanted this morning was drama.“Fine,” I replied offhandedly instead.“Ellie, I was thinking. Do you have any college in mind?” Daniel, who was already dressed up and ready to leave the house, asked.I shook my head no, nibbling lightly on my French toast.“Hmmm. The state college of Wisconsin would be just fine, don’t you think?” He turned to my mother, who was beaming. “I have a lot of friends there, and application wouldn’t be a problem for you.”“Ouuu, I heard they have great undergraduate programs, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy…..”I dropped my cutlery harder than I expected, and the couple stared at me, mother with dissatisfaction, and Daniel with….well, concern.“I still have a lot of time before I have to decide,” I forced the words out of my mouth.“That’s your problem!

    “An orgasm.”His words floated in my head, and I immediately felt dizzy. Before I could get any word past my throat, he took my hand and led me to a couch that overlooked the lake where my mother’s wedding reception had been held a week ago.He stopped walking in front of the couch, and I turned to him, my wide eyes doing nothing to hide my surprise.“Here?” I stared at him with disbelief.He nodded with a cocky smile. A cocky smile that showcased his perfect, straight teeth, and made my heart palpitate.But I pulled my eyes from his distracting smile and focused on the matter at hand. “There’s no way I’m getting naked here. In Daniel’s study. Anyone could walk in. My mom could walk in,” I whispered the words like they could destroy a city if I said them too loud.My heart was beating madly in my chest, because I couldn’t risk getting caught.When I decided to submit to him, it was my plan to have everything in control and not get caught, but seeing the smirk on Chase’s lips, I didn’

    I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. My 21st birthday, and I felt like a whale. Seven months pregnant, and I was huge. I puffed out a sigh, running my hands over my swollen belly, as I was told to expect popping soon since my babies had Alpha growth.Pups, they called them."I look like a hippopotamus," I muttered, feeling tears prick at the corners of my eyes.Chase appeared behind me, his arms wrapping around my waist. "You're the most beautiful woman in the world," he whispered, his lips brushing against my ear.I rolled my eyes. "You're biased."Chase chuckled. "Maybe, but it's true. You're glowing, Elodie. You're perfect."I turned to face him, my eyes searching his. "You really think so?" I sniffed my tears back.Chase nodded with a boyish grin. "I do. You're carrying our child, and that makes you even more beautiful to me."I felt a lump form in my throat. Chase had been my anchor throughout this pregnancy. He'd moved his work home, spending every day with

    _Chase’s POV_I sat beside Elodie's hospital bed, my eyes fixed on her pale face. It had been a week since she'd been admitted, and still, she lay unconscious, her body hooked up to machines and oxygen tubes. The beeping of the monitors and the hiss of the ventilator were the only sounds that broke the silence. My heart ached with every beat, my soul torn apart by the sight of her fragile form.I reached out, taking her hand in mine, feeling the warmth of her skin, but it was a faint warmth. I’d tried to reach her wolf a number of times, but she too was very weak.It was like grasping at smoke. She was there, somewhere, deep within her, but she was weak, so weak. I poured all my energy into the connection, willing her to respond, to stir, to come back to me. But there was only silence.The hospital had provided a bed for me beside hers, and I'd spent every waking moment by her side. I woke up every morning with her hand in mine, and slept every night with her fingers intertwined with

    Chapter 162_Chase’s POV_I paced back and forth in front of the barrier, my mind racing with every possible scenario, most of which I’d rather not recount lest they became real. Elodie had been in there for what felt like an eternity, and I was starting to lose my mind. I tried crossing the barrier again, but it was like running into a brick wall. I was pushed back, my body slamming against a nearby tree."Dammit!" I cursed, my fists clenched in frustration.Laila approached me. I’d seen more empathy in her eyes in the last few minutes than I’d done in my entire life, and if it were under any other circumstances, I would have laughed and asked her if she was losing her touch."Chase, calm down. You're going to hurt yourself,” she placed her hand on my shoulder, and from her misty eyes, I could tell how hard she was trying to control her tears.I turned to her, my eyes blazing with anger. "Calm down? You want me to calm down? Elodie's in there with a man who’s capable of doing……God k

    My mind was a jumble of emotions as I stood there, frozen in shock. But as I gazed into the face of the man before me, a memory long buried rose to the surface. I was a child again, sitting on my father's lap, listening to his deep, rumbling voice as he read me a bedtime story. His eyes sparkled with amusement, his hands making animations, and his smile was warm and gentle. I felt safe, loved, and cherished."Elodie, my little star," he whispered, his breath tickling my ear.His voice cut through the daze, and I felt like I was dreaming. I wanted to believe I was dreaming. But as I looked into his eyes, I knew it was real. He was really there, standing in front of me, unchanged since the day he...since the day he died.I stumbled backward, my mind reeling. It couldn't be. My father was dead. I had mourned him, blamed myself for his death. The pain and guilt had haunted me for years.But there he was, not a day older, not a single strand of gray hair. His eyes, his smile, everything wa

    Chase's face contorted in rage, his eyes blazing with fury. "I'll never let you go in there alone!" he thundered, his voice echoing through the night. My heart broke at the desperation in his eyes, and I rushed back to him, wrapping my arms around his waist."Chase, please," I whispered, burying my face in his chest. "I'll be fine. I promise."But he was beyond reason, and his body trembled with anger. "You're not going in there!" he shouted, his voice hoarse. "I won't let you!"He lightly pushed me away, his eyes scanning the warehouse as if daring the lone wolf to come out. "You want her?" he yelled, his voice carrying across the distance. "You want my mate? Come out and face me, you coward! If you think you're man enough!"The others tried to calm him down, but Chase was unstoppable. He paced back and forth, his eyes blazing with fury, the veins on his neck and forehead pulsing so hard I feared they would erupt. I tried to reason with him, but he wasn't listening."Chase, please,"

    As we stepped out of the office, the crisp night air enveloped us, carrying the scent of damp earth and the distant howl of feral wolves that made my heart squeeze painfully. "We'll need to be discreet," Chase said, his voice low. "Let's shift."I nodded, the pain momentarily giving way to a thrill of excitement. My wolf stirred within me, eager to be free. I closed my eyes, focusing on the transformation. My body began to shift, my bones snapping, my muscles stretching. My senses heightened, and my skin itched as my fur grew.But as I opened my eyes, I realized everyone was staring at me. Laila's eyes were wide with wonder, and even Gideon's gruff expression softened. I felt a flush rise to my cheeks, but Chase's gaze was the only one that mattered. His eyes shone with pride, his face radiant with awe."Elodie," he whispered, his voice husky. "You're...breathtaking."My wolf, pure white and majestic, stood tall, her fur glistening in the moonlight. I felt a surge of power, of freedo

    _Chase's POV_I stared at Elodie, my jaw clenched, and I felt myself about to snap in half with frustration. How could she be so stubborn? Didn't she understand the danger?But as I looked into her eyes, I saw something that made me pause. A fierce intensity burned within them, a determination that told me she would do this with or without my permission.I recalled my conversation with Laila earlier that evening, her words echoing in my mind."Chase, we've tried everything. We've lost so many pack members. This is the only way to stop the lone wolf," she'd said, her eyes solemn."I won't risk Elodie's life," I'd growled.Laila's expression had been somber. "I understand your concerns, but we can't keep running. We need to take a stand. And Elodie...she's the key. I don’t know how, but she is."I'd rejected the idea, but now, looking at Elodie, I realized that Laila might be right.The past 24 hours had seen more pack members go feral. The lone wolf's poison was spreading, and I knew w

    I woke to darkness, the silence a heavy blanket that wrapped around me. My eyes adjusted slowly, and I made out the familiar contours of our bedroom. But it was the figure sitting beside me that made my heart skip a beat.Chase.His eyes, piercing in the dim light, locked onto mine. My panic, residual from the day's events, dissipated under his gaze."Hey," I whispered softly as if speaking too loud would break whatever spell his eyes had put me under.A soft smile creased Chase's face, but his eyes told a different story. They were dark, troubled.I pushed myself up, my movements cautious, my wolf senses on high alert. Chase's gaze never wavered, his focus solely on me."Hey," he replied, his voice low, husky.I reached out, my hand brushing against his jaw. His stubble prickled my fingertips, sending shivers down my spine."Couldn't sleep?" I asked, my brow furrowing.Chase shook his head, his eyes evading mine. "Just watching you."My smile faltered, sensing something was off. "Cha

    _Chase’s POV_I held Elodie tight, her body trembling against mine. The room's stunned silence was a distant hum, my focus solely on my fragile mate.As the reality of what had just happened sunk in, Elodie's strength began to wane. Her legs buckled, and I swept her into my arms, cradling her like a child."Elodie, love, stay with me," I whispered, alarm coursing through my veins as her wolf grew weaker by the second.Her eyelids fluttered, her gaze unfocused. "Chase...""I'm here, baby," I replied, my voice shaking.Laila approached, her brows pinched together in concern, and her lips curled downward. "Chase, we need to—""Not now, Laila," I growled in a double voice, my wolf rising to protect our mate.Laila squinted her eyes at my tone, and I could almost hear the retort at the tip of her tongue, but she said instead, "Take care of her. We'll discuss the details later."I nodded, the pulse in my neck straining to burst, already striding out of the conference room.Elodie's head lol
