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
“You will not fail the challenges if you want to—”“Silence!” The command rings loud and clear with the Alpha command, making everyone in the room freeze and stopping my father in the middle of his rant. Lately, he’s been pushing the limits a little too much.With the anger and pain already piercing
EthanStepping foot onto my land and then into my pack house this time is different. The usual zing of anticipation is dulled, almost as if it has become numb after Fiona left. It doesn’t matter that she’s never been here or that she’s never fully been part of my pack.There’s something missing now.
Not that I want it to. I don’t want anything to do with Ethan anymore, not after what he’s done. This time, Ethan crossed a line so far that he can’t even see it anymore. That rotten, no-good, lying little—He could be seriously injured or even killed. Ryan’s words suddenly pop into my mind, and I f
FionaI run.Nothing is more important right now than getting to Isla’s car. My feet pound against the driveway as I lock my sights on Isla’s car just beyond the gate. There’s nothing else. It all fades away, leaving me and the gate and the car.I don’t look back, not at the house and not at him. I
EthanMy face stings, and everything disappears except for my mate.The mate I haven’t seen in almost three days since she locked herself in her room. The mate who yelled at me to leave her alone a minute ago.My mate who is screaming at me.“You have no right to keep me locked up here, Ethan!” She
FionaMy stomach lurches, and I collapse over the toilet, emptying the contents of my stomach. I heave and cough to expel the burning feeling from my throat, and when there’s nothing left, I slide back to the floor and lean against the wall.My entire body aches and feels hot as I close my eyes, but
EthanI fucked up.“You did. Now she’s going to keep ignoring us,” Zev growls, pacing in my mind. He wants out, wants to go to our mate, but the door between us may as well be a canyon. The cold shoulder she gave me even after I told her about Angela was more than icy. It was almost emotionless.So,
Turning on my heel, I march toward the stairs, ignoring his calls and making my way down to the kitchen. I leave him behind to stew on my words, and when I get to the kitchen, I find the staff in full swing.“Breakfast is ready if you would like to sit at the dining table, Ms. Fiona,” a young woman
I hate that it’s so easy for him to control me.I hate that I can’t fight back.I hate it.“Please let me go,” I beg. Maybe if I beg hard enough, he’ll feel bad and let me go. He doesn’t stop, though. I wiggle and try to get out of his hold, my irritation pooling within me, as he continues to march
