Kevin's POVThat was it?That was my first thought when I heard what Zeke had to say and I almost blurted out that he was being ridiculous for saying we might think his idea was useless.Why would I think that?Why would I say that to him even if it was?I glanced at Ella and realized she understood what he meant. I glanced at Liam but he had an unreadable expression on his face so I couldn't tell what he was thinking of. I sighed. That brat could be too controlled with his emotions at times. I glanced at the other men but not all of were looking in my direction so I couldn't tell what they were thinking of.I looked away from them and focused on Zeke who was still waiting for my response.I knew the point Zeke was trying to make but I needed to ask him to explain further for clarification so everyone would have no doubts."Why do you say that?" I asked him. I wasn't going to tell him that I understood his worries right now without letting him speak of what he meant. That might make t
Ella's POV"Someone is following us." Caleb said and turned around.We all looked around but everywhere was deathly silent. I didn't think anyone was following us. I couldn't even hear the sounds of animals and insects as we walked. It was as if they knew that creatures bigger than they were were on the road and had gone into hiding."I don't sense anyone." Kevin said, turning to look at Caleb. "Do you sense anyone?" He asked us, turning to his men."No," I shook my head."No." The men said.I wasn't surprised that they had said that. I didn't think that anyone was with us and had let my senses fly out the moment Caleb said someone was following us but I still couldn't sniff out anyone's scent.I was afraid he was paranoid and letting it get to him but I didn't know how I was going to tell him that without making him mad. It was possible he had heard an animal scurry off into the bush and had let his worry get the best of him and think it was someone following us.I knew how enhanced
Liam's POVDinner was great. Zeke overcooked. Well, I wouldn't say he overcooked since there was nothing left of the huge heap of food he had cooked. He had cooked that much for a reason and judging by the bright smile on his face as he looked at the empty plates on the table, I was sure that he was glad he had done that.I patted my belly, feeling full. It was the long time that I had eaten so much in a long while. We had always had to be conscious of eating too much from our food storage of canned meals as we knew we had a long way to go and there was no store around to get food for."Thanks for the meal." I said, bowing to Zeke.He smiled, nodding his head at me. "I am glad you are all okay."We were more than okay if he wanted the truth."I didn't know you could cook this much." Ella said, teasing her dad.Zeke chuckled. "Should I tell you a secret?""What is it?" Ella asked, leaning forward.I was curious to know what the secret was but I didn't lean forward like she did. I kept
Maya's POV"Let's wrap this up quickly. We have to train the wolf pups before it gets too dark. I hate sending those kids home late in the night." I said to the six ladies around me.Someone snickered not too far from me but I knew who it was, even without turning my head. It wasn't anyone other than Selene and her two friends; Sarah and Sasha. The three mischievous and bitter snakes as I liked to call them and tell my best friend, Khloe.I wondered if their parents had known what they were going to become and that was why they had named them by the first letter of a snake. I wondered what kind of snakes they would be if they really were one. Would they be anacondas, pythons or cobras? I shook my head, hating that I had poor knowledge about the crawling reptiles.I narrowed my eyes at them, squinting at their tiny forms which were too small for even for a growing wolf much more a mature female Wolfe and agreed that they had to be rattlesnakes. That was what they were, judging by how s
Ella's POV"Don't worry, Luna. We can do it." Caleb said as I tried to pick a wood and he quickly collected it from me.I rolled my eyes at him and groaned. "Not you too. I've had enough from the men of the blood moon pack.""Calling you a Luna?" He chuckled. "Isn't that what you are? When were you going to tell me you were the mate of the alpha of the blood moon pack?"I shrugged. "Maybe never.""You are mean, Luna.""Don't call me, that. You can call me Ella or Anna, whichever you find comfortable and you should stop treating me as a weakling." I said and picked up another wood to prove my point.His eyes widened and he chuckled as understanding dawned in his eyes. "Oh! You were talking about that?""Yes. This." I said, moving forward with the wood.I hadn't moved far before Damien collected the wood from me. "You should rest, Luna."I sighed, throwing my hands up in frustration. "Are you boys ever going to let me do anything?"They looked at one another, looked at me and then shook
Ella's POV"You can go back to the living room." Dad said thirty-five minutes after we have entered the kitchen. "I can do the rest by myself.""Let's do it together." I replied, not wanting to go back to the living room now and be idle or listen to the guys talk. I love being busy.He smiled and shook his head. "You should go. There is nothing much to do here anyways. We just have to leave the food to cook."I sighed. I shouldn't have been stubborn when he had explained that. "Okay, dad. Be out soon.""I will be right after you." He nodded.I walked out of the kitchen and found Kevin waiting by the door. Even though I knew he was there waiting for me, I walked past him as if I didn't know he was there."Ella," he called out, walking after me.I pretended not to hear him. He rushed towards me and I gasped as I felt his hand on mine, yanking me towards him and turned me to face him."Are you still mad at me?" He asked, staring into my eyes.Uh? I melted as I stared into his eyes. I for
Kevin's POVI was glad that she wasn't mad at me anymore. I still itched to kiss her though and fought hard to not look at her lips. It was a good thing that we had been interrupted or I didn't know how far I would have taken the kiss. I wanted her in my bed and under my skin.I smiled as we walked to meet the others, hoping that the throbbing erection that I felt wasn't bulging out of my trousers. That would be awkward to explain. How could I tell them that we were only talking if I had my penis strutting out of my pants and begging to be out?Yeah, that must have been one intense conversation. The lips had worked so much. I could imagine and hear the responses of the men in my head.We joined the others and they raised their heads up as they sensed us. I raised my head up, daring my men to say a word.Some of them swallowed as they looked away and I knew that they had understood the signal I had given them and would stick to the warning. Ella was already worried of what they would t
Kevin's POV"Let's do this." I shouted at the men, cheering them on. "Let's do this one more round."The men groaned but it wasn't because they were complaining but were tired. I knew they were tired but they also knew as much as I did why we had to keep training even if our bones are dying in pain and begging us for some minutes of rest.I was tired as well but couldn't afford to stop because of what was at stake. I had no doubt that Kenneth of a bastard was planning something disastrous and we couldn't afford to slack on building our strength and training our muscles harder, knowing that we would be outnumbered.I wouldn't be surprised if he came and hunted us down with all his soldiers. He always seemed to go overboard with everything that he did. Even if he came with a quarter of his soldiers, we were still outnumbered, considering that we weren't up to twenty here and couldn't ask for help from our packs.I couldn't ask for help to fight this war because I didn't want my people i
