ANNA KYLIN CHESTER WHEN I ENTERED my suite at the inn, I had an array of food waiting for me on a tray. Shocked, I slowly unveiled each of them, it was like a mini feast.I dropped my bag on the couch as Reine came in from a back room. "You are home, Luna." She bowed. "Welcome.""You did all these?" I asked.She nodded shyly. "I'm sorry I could not send your lunch to you. The Alpha's mate made sure to keep me busy."I frowned. "You didn't have to come in and prepare a 4-course meal for me." I noticed that she started to feel sad, so I touched her arm and said, "But thank you. I really appreciate your gesture, okay?"She brightened up and nodded, "Let me take your bag in, and get a bath running for you." I sat down and eased my foot from my shoes, sighing in relief as I reached behind me and unhooked my bra. Those things had been digging into my back throughout today.I reached for the tray and picked a slice of what looked like chips but tasted like fish. It was very delicious. "Mm
MITCH CHESTER"...AND SO MELANIE took the crayons I was using and threw it out the window." Addison completed with a huff. She was red in the face and struggled to catch her breath.Mitch sighed, and like the good father that he was trying to be, he nodded even though he was tired of hearing the story of how "mean Melanie" had stepped on Addison's nerves throughout the day before. "What do you think I should do, Dad?" Addison asked. She pushed forward against the harness of her strap and tapped the driver's seat headrest.Mitch sighed again. "Don't let anyone walk over you, okay?" He said, meeting her eyes in the rear view mirror. "But at the same time, don't be a problem to your teacher and other classmates. You hear me?"She nodded and leaned back into the seat."That goes for you too, Aiden," Mitch said."Yes, Dad.""Good," He relished in the newfound quiet until they got to the school. "Now, remember, If you notice any strange person around -""- we will report to our teacher to c
MITCH CHESTER MITCH SIGHED IN exasperation. He was not ready for any games that Ophelia was playing. "What do you want?" He asked and knew the answer even before she opened her mouth to talk."You," she said, "I want you. Send the doctor away. Banish her from this pack."He scoffed. "Not happening.""Well then," she stood up and started to go out. "Maybe you don't need the information that much."Mitch growled. No one turned their back on him and walked out. In a flashover movement, he gripped Ophelia and threw her against the wall, pressing against her. His eyes glowed red and he growled in a guttural voice, "Speak!"She choked and squirmed against his hold. Her feet dangled uselessly in the air. Mitch released the pressure slightly from her neck. She took a long deep breath and coughed. Then she opened her eyes, and it glinted mischievously. She arched her back and wrapped her leg around his midsection. "This is exactly what I want," she purred, grinding against him.Mitch growled.
MITCH CHESTER "FUCK!" HE GROWLED as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. He turned on the basin and washed his face."Weak!" He growled again. His claws protruded and dug into his neck, drawing blood. "So weak!" Sex with Ophelia should never have happened, not after being mated to Anna."In our defense, we needed the release," Night muttered.There is nothing to defend. He snarled. His blood dripped and mixed with the tap water. Nothing to defend. He looked at the deep gash on his neck, a wound inflicted by himself. If it were from another cause, it would be healing up very quickly now without leaving much scar, but since this was caused by himself, a Lycan, the wound remained bleeding and sending sharp pain throughout his body.He reached over and got a napkin. "This would be nothing compared to what Anna was probably feeling," he muttered. He knew of the mate bond and the effects - both positive and negative - it had on the parties included.He had read of the pains one would
ANNA KYLIN CHESTERI LEFT MY suite the next morning feeling refreshed. I don't know the time Reine finally left my suite, I was already fast asleep. She did not come this morning, I figured that she must have been busy with something else.I fixed myself a breakfast of eggs, bacon, and toast before heading out. My mind was still troubled by what I had seen and heard yesterday, and the plot between my sister and Doctor Marcus against me - and the deceit and drugging of their Alpha.All these should be too much for me, but I was determined not to let myself be bothered by the dynamics of this pack.This is not the pack I thought it was. It isn't the pack my father died for. It isn't the pack I hoped to return to. Things changed. Darkness, like a cancer from the alpha to his Luna, had seeped and rooted itself deep into the gears of the pack.But one thing I would not allow was to sit back and let Marcus poison pack members, just so they could blame it on me and destroy my reputation.I s
ANNA KYLIN CHESTER I CAME AWAKE very slowly. I realized that I was on my bed and there was a cold napkin on my forehead. I sat up gently and looked around. The room was dim but I could hear someone moving in the sitting room. I tried to talk but my throat was parched and dry. The door opened and a small silhouette came in. I saw it was Reine. She noticed that I was awake and she rushed to my side. "Luna, you are awake." She put her hand on my cheek to feel my temperature, and then she took the napkin from my forehead. She brought a small glass cup with a straw to my mouth. I sucked on it and found my voice. "How long was I out for?""I don't know, Luna," She said. "I was not checking the time. But almost 4 hours."I sat up with some effort and assistance from Reine. She wrung her hands together, "I came in to prepare your dinner before you came back from work," she said. "I found you on the carpet. I feared you were not breathing.""So you carried me to bed?" I frowned.She nodded.
MITCH CHESTER"FOR FUCK'S SAKE!" He growled, looking at the splinters on the snow. That was the second phone in 3 days that he had destroyed because of his temper. He marched angrily through the streets of his kingdom. His beast was fuming underneath as he remembered what Anna said. She wanted the children back. Like he would let that happen. She would have to come back and steal the kids from him before he let them go. He gripped the tree closest to him, and his claws dug into the hard bark.Wasn't he being toxic? He asked himself. After all, she was not wrong. He did not share any DNA with them. He frowned and his breath rumbled in his chest. He did not really have any rights over them."Fuck that!" He growled. "Draco," he mindlinked."Yeah?" Came the immediate reply."Who did you station at the school? ""Alphonso and Brad," Draco replied.Mitch nodded and said, "Good." Those were good and alert soldiers. "Have them contact me if they sense anything out of place,""Will do, and I
ANNA KYLIN CHESTER I NEVER THOUGHT I would feel this way again. I lay on the bed in a fetal position. Of all the women he could sleep with... it was Ophelia - the woman who had made it her and her father's mission to humiliate me and my children.I tried to will myself to sleep, but the sleep would not come. I remained like that in the same curled-up ball. I vaguely noticed that Reine came in, and tried to coax me to sit up and do something active like going out on a stroll, but she left me alone after a while, frustrated.What was the point?As soon as my strength was back up, I would arrange for my children to be brought to me, and then I would leave. Here, my own sister plotted my downfall and death, and she was getting angrier with each second I remained here.And in the mountains- the place that signified security for me - I scoffed. I have been humiliated. Ophelia won. How would I hold my head up with pride to her, knowing that she was sleeping with my mate?I frowned. "Fuck t
