Fiona“Ethan is coming back,” Ryan announces, crouching beside me as I sit at my desk. I try not to look at him and try not to feel relieved. Why should I feel relieved? It’s not like Ethan will do anything. He hasn’t so far, so why start now?I would love for Ethan to come back, take charge, and pu
FionaIce cream solves everything… or at least that’s what I tell myself as I peek out of my bedroom door. I look left and right, and smile when there’s no sign of Isla.My craving for chocolatey goodness pushes me to tiptoe down the hallway, careful to stay quiet. I don’t want to bother Isla becaus
FionaWhen I opened my husband’s office door, I find Jack and my stepsister, Jessica, locked together in a passionate kiss. The scene hit me like a truck. What the hell is going on?I always thought Jessica was a good girl. She’d stood by me during the hardest time of my life when my mother died, an
EthanAs we drive to my house, I glance at the woman, remembering when I’d first seen her.I’d scented her the moment she walked in. A light floral and vanilla scent that immediately had my wolf’s attention. A delicious, strong scent that had me looking her way as well.“Talk to her,” my wolf urged,
Fiona“He may be able to help, since he clearly likes you…” she trails off, then smirks, “And I still think it’s insane that he’s in love with you.”“Love?” I laugh, surprised. “Isla, he’s toying with me. Another one-night stand to forget about,” I tell her, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear as
FionaDucking my head, I break eye contact with Ethan. I can’t let him sway me again, even if my body craves his touch. God. How can a couple of seconds of eye contact have me wanting to curl back up in bed with the man?I shake off the connection I feel to him. He’d completely ignored my need for h
Fiona“I wasn’t flirting with men all night, Ethan. I was looking for a lawyer to file a lawsuit against my husband,” I tell Ethan. The fear of what just happened still covers me, but with him here, I feel better. Even though he’s acting like a complete bastard. “Is this really the only way to fin
FionaThe arrogance fades from Jack’s eyes as he watches Ethan. Shock completely takes over. No doubt he was thinking of how I’d slept with Ethan. It would come as a surprise to him since it’s out of my character.The longer he watches us, the paler Jack’s face becomes until he’s swallowing audibly

The sun sinks closer to the horizon, and an unfamiliar howl sounds somewhere behind me. The great water is nowhere near our land, I realize as I look at it. There’s a good two-hundred miles between Silverclaw Pack lands and the ocean, but I can’t find it in myself to care that I’m on unfamiliar land
ZevI push forward, not believing what Ethan just read and force myself to focus on the words.Fiona: I can’t keep doing this. I thought our time together meant something to you, but I was wrong. I fell for the stories and the promises. The idea of perfect matches was too much to pass up, but now I’
It would be nice if their concern came from a place of worry, but the fact that it comes from a place of ignorance and bigotry just makes me angry.“Why do they not understand?” My wolf asks with a growl. “You would think that two mated Lycans would understand the desire to be with their mate.”I in
Ethan “YOU DID WHAT?!” My father roars as my mother stares wide-eyed at me. Her jaw drops open, small gasping sounds escaping, but she says nothing. Too shocked, I guess.“You let a human be the reason you were disqualified?” My brother’s bored tone says from behind me, and I turn, glaring at him.
Ryan rushes forward, shoves Angela aside, and crouches in front of me. His eyes land on my neck then on my wrist where Angela had been squeezing me. An angry rumble vibrates from Ryan’s body, and I briefly have the thought that it should be Ethan here keeping me safe, not his friend.Not that I’m up
Fiona“What is it this t—”Angela storms out of Ethan’s office, grabs me by the shoulders, and shoves me back. My back slams into the filing cabinet as I fall backwards, sending a wave of sharp, hot pain through my body. I gasp, taking deep breaths to try to chase away the ache while staring up at A
FionaDing. Ding. Ding. Ring. Ring. Ring. Ding.I tug on my hair, nearly screaming as my phone continues to alert me to new messages. It dings and dings and dings until I finally snatch it up from the little table, peek at the screen, and then shut it off when I don’t see Ethan’s name.It seems l
