Ethan Normal people would probably worry about holding their woman in their office while she cries, but I’m not normal. Neither is our relationship. She shifts her head, slightly pulling my collar with the movement. “Her tears are staining your shirt,” my wolf growls, his anger mirroring the r
Fiona Silently, I shovel the scrambled eggs I’d just finished making onto two plates; one for me and one for Ethan. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get him to give me more information on his trip. Even after sleeping together and watching a movie, he wouldn’t spill any more information than
“Aaah!” I cry out, the sensation too much as I slump forward onto the counter. “That’s right, Fiona. Let me take care of you,” Ethan murmurs, pulling back and sliding into me again. The hand at my clit speeds up as he presses me into the counter, pounding faster and faster into me. “I. Will. Be.
Ethan Leaving Fiona was more difficult than I thought. I had to force myself not to look back when I left my house because those sad eyes would’ve convinced me to stay. It’s something I couldn’t do even if I wanted to stay with her. “Because she’s our mate,” my wolf points out. “No. I’ve just
Fiona The last hour of my shift at work is mind-numbingly boring with no papers to file or print, no calls to make, and no schedules to plan. Honestly, without Ethan here, I feel a bit useless. I have his schedule on hold until he gets back, and Ryan is taking care of pretty much anything else tha
Ryan listens to whoever is speaking on the other end of the phone before hanging up. “I’ve got to go. An emergency popped up at the company that I need to return to deal with. You go on inside. Take tomorrow to rest and prepare for your date with Ethan. I’ll come get you when its time to go meet h
Ethan I enter the dim building, the scent of wolves surrounding me. Since there are no pack lands here in the East like there are in the West, we had to agree on a location to hold the challenge in, which ended up being this empty warehouse. Ryan gave me the information about the building- it is
A pained howl breaks through the loud shouts from the crowd. Some of the shouts are angry, coming from the Bluemoon Pack members that came with Jameson, and others are excited, urging us to keep going. To fight more. Jameson growls from my hold, kicking one of his paws toward my face. Using my b
My gut churns. It could be a lie, I remind myself. It’s what I wanted. Liar, a voice in my head whispers. It’s right. I hate the idea of their marriage moving forward. Angela opens her mouth like she’s going to say more, but I can’t listen to her anymore. I already have enough trouble with wha
Fiona “Please have this correspondence sent out to the Mercy Medical Company as soon as possible,” I tell Patrice, the older mail lady. She smiles at me and pats my hand. “Honey, you didn’t have to come all the way down to the mail room. You could’ve called me to come get this from you,” she say
“Fiona,” he greets as I step off the elevator. I offer my best smile, but even I can tell it’s not as genuine as it usually is. “What did you find?” I ask as soon as we make it into his office. “The lab sent back the forged signature as well as your samples. They wrote an official letter stating
Fiona Grabbing my bag, I make my way to the elevator. I chance one more glimpse at Ethan’s office, but it’s still empty. He didn’t come back after the meeting, and I didn’t look for him. We both need time to assess the situation in order to make the correct decisions. No matter how much my heart
How can he make a claim like that if he’s going to marry someone else? He can’t have it both ways. It’s either me or her, and he has more to gain and less to lose if he’s with her. Closing my eyes, I pull back. Unlike Chris, the wolf lets me pull away. His fingers linger for a moment, but when I
Fiona I noticed almost immediately that there was something different about Ethan, but I didn’t expect the wolf to take over Ethan’s body. Did he think Chris was going to take me away? I mean, for a second, I thought Chris wouldn’t let go. It freaked me out how Chris grabbed me and got so close.
Ethan “Al- Mr. Montgomery, there’s an issue in the meeting room. Fiona is talking with a man, and he’s being—” “Being what? Is she alright?” “I think so, but he got really close and pushy—” Before she can finish, I leave her and Ryan in my office. If someone put their hands on my mate, they’
He’s too close. “It’s good,” I half-lie. “There are a lot of nice people here and the work is good too. It keeps me busy but not overwhelmed.” It’s not the work that’s overwhelming. Honestly, the work is helping me calm down a bit. It’s everything other than work that is stressing me out, but I
Fiona Rubbing my tired and burning eyes, I walk into the meeting room. Not only does the box of meeting papers feel heavy in my arms, but my body itself feels like it has fifty extra pounds on it. Ever since I woke up late this morning with a raging headache and an aching body, I’ve been dragging.
