Fiona After a surprisingly pleasant day at work, and a nice dinner with Ethan, I drive home with a gooey, warm feeling in my body. Throughout the whole day, Ethan was extra attentive, making sure I had anything I needed or stopping by my desk at random times. It’s different from his hovering yest
“It’s your fault I lost my money and now I’ve been demoted at work!” She yells, lunging forward and shoving me back. The sudden aggression catches me off guard, and I fall back, my butt hitting the hard floor. “What the hell, Jessica!?” I scream. “How is you getting demoted related to me?” I force
Fiona Looking down at the gorgeous navy-blue gown Isla picked out for me, I wonder how she talked me into going to this promotion party. Originally, I told her I wouldn’t go, but since then I’ve thought a lot. I told Isla I didn’t really feel like celebrating Jack or anything he does, but she ar
I don’t want to interrupt him, so I take Isla by the arm and drag her to the bar. “Is it always that heated between you two?” “Well, it’s been a bit more heated since he came back from his trip,” I admit, stepping up to the bar. “What can I get for you two lovely ladies?” The bar tender asks,
Fiona Staying far enough behind that I don’t get caught, I follow Jessica and Angela down the hallway, ducking behind a door when one of them turns around. I can’t hear their whispers, but with the way they glance over their shoulders, they’re up to something. They finally walk into the bathroom
The hallway is silent with no signs of partygoers when I poke my head out. The hallway lights are dim, but no one is around, so I slip out and make my way back to the ballroom. Jack’s voice filters loudly through the building, and I realize he’s already making his speech. His words are muffled unt
Fiona He’s following me. Without looking behind me, I can tell Ethan is close behind. His heavy, warm presence is unmistakable and comforting. Honestly, it gives me the strength to keep going. However, as soon as I step out of the ballroom, a large hand circles the back of my arm, pulling me g
Ethan looks up from his meal, an eyebrow raised. Taking a steady breath, I look him directly in the eyes. His intense gaze makes me pause, but I don’t let it fully stop me as I say, “I wanted to tell you that, no matter what happens between me and Jack, I won’t use you to retaliate against him aga
His arm tightens around my waist as his eyes narrow on his parents.“And I love Fiona. Nothing you say or do will stop us from being together because she is mine!”Ethan’s parents flinch at his hard tone. I look between the three of them, realizing Ethan is fighting against the main authority in his
FionaI lean back into Ethan when his arms wrap around my waist as I flip the last pancake. His lips brush my neck, and I have to bite my lip to keep from moaning as tingles zip through me.Since we’ve made up, Ethan can’t seem to keep his hands off me. Anytime he’s close, he touches me in some way,
EthanThe doors at the back of the throne room open, and the King steps into the room. I gently pull Fiona closer to my side, not wanting her to move away from me.I don’t need her to see anyone else look at her with disgust, especially if the King decides to send the same kind of look to her. The K
Their gowns are so much nicer and more extravagant than mine.“You look beautiful,” Ethan says softly, his lips brushing my ear. “You outshine every woman here.”My heart skips a beat in my chest, and I tighten my arm around his as we continue walking. How does he know just what to say?“Alpha Montg
FionaThe last three days have been full of meet and greets, healing lessons, and alone-time with Ethan. I haven’t met the whole pack yet, but Ethan thought it would be a good idea to start introducing me slowly to people. I’ve met the healers, some of Ethan’s friends, several of the Gammas, and a f
Ethan“We’re glad to see you feeling better,” Elder Nugyen says as we enter the meeting room. Each of the pack Elders takes a seat, murmuring their agreements and greeting me. I take a seat at the head of the table, motioning for them to sit.“It’s good to be back, and I am thankful for your help, E
Before I can say anything else, Ethan is over me, pulling my hips up and entering me. He slides into my slick heat, filling me in the best way and making me cry out with relief. Then he’s moving, and I’m clinging onto him as we both ride the waves of pleasure.My fingers dig into his shoulders, and
FionaEthan’s lips.His hands.The way his chest vibrates against mine.How he digs his fingers into my ass and pulls me impossibly closer as we kiss.It all sends me into a spiral of pleasure and has me forgetting the pain. Everything is washed away by the fact that we are finally together.“Down,”
Fiona“You have a natural gift,” a soft, clear voice says.Pulling my eyes away from the sun setting over the ocean, I look up to find a woman standing slightly behind me. She looks down at me for a moment before lowering herself to sit on the grass beside me.The breeze lifts her long hair, and it
