Resisting The Mate Bond 80
When they finally arrived at the Mountain Coast pack grounds, Breeana sighed a deep sigh of relief.After finalizing the terms with Felicity, they had begun the long journey home. Even though Felicity had insisted that they stay, it was obvious that she and the entire pack were not at ease in she and Reece's presence.The general pack meeting had been a minor disaster. Although they had done their very best to put the pack members at ease, all their efforts at cardinality was met with straight faces and silence.The pack members seemed to think even they were on trial and that any slip-up would land them on the council's radar.Breeana knew for an operation as large as the one carried out by Gilbert and Rita, there were bound to be complicit members of the pack. Perhaps that was what was fostering the frostiness.She looked at the quiet redhead in the backseat. The girl, Rhea, hadn't looked up for a second since Felicity had handed her over to them to use as a link to their pack. Altho

He had always been ambitious. Anything he wanted, he got. Not that it came easily, he worked hard for every single thing he had. He sacrificed. Nothing was too much. He gave his all and he reaped abundantly.And now it was almost time for the culmination of all his efforts.There was a knock on the door."Enter."Ford entered with his head bowed. Not that he cared so much about that. He was more bothered about the news he carried."Well? Speak up.""He took the poison."He relaxed back on his seat feeling more than a little at ease. Y had been a very good pawn but the main purpose of having a pawn was so that it could be discarded or sacrificed when the going got tough and a difficult decision needed to be made."Rita and Gabriel?""No confessions from them."The council would tire of their resistance soon enough and with the overwhelming evidence against them, they would move to execute them.For now, he would lay low and play the field."How are the experiments going? Do we have any

Callie was on her way to congratulate Zinora and Alex when she noticed Sarah looking sick.Nelson was busy talking with Reece which was better. She wasn't like Breeana who had completely forgiven and forgotten all that Sarah had done.Breeana had a good heart. Sometimes too good. That was why she could forgive so easily but Callie… Callie couldn't get the image of who Sarah had been before out of her head.The change was too drastic for her to comprehend so while she was openly supportive of Sarah, she kept looking for a peek of the former Sarah subconsciously.But now looking at Sarah who couldn't seem to take her eyes off Allen who was sitting with his newly found mate, Rhea, she felt that doubt dissolve to nothing.Sarah had made mistakes but who hadn't? Maybe it was time to stop judging her so harshly for them.Sarah dropped the glass of juice she had been holding and walked out of the wedding reception.Callie began to follow her when she noticed Allen leave his mate to go after

Sarah?"What about her?"Callie shifted in her chair."Do you really trust that she has changed? I know she seems better and more stable now but you knew her, how she was before. Do you think she has changed completely?"Breeana frowned."Of course, Callie. What sort of question is that? She has been of exemplary behaviour since her return and she saved my life at the expense of her and her child's. I trust her completely.""I don't think she is all she seems, Breeana. She is hiding something from us. Last night, I overheard her talking about how she is in your confidence now and how she has to complete some job."Breeana's heart stopped for a minute. Could Callie be right? Had she been duped?She recalled how Sarah had cried about losing Damien and consequently about Allen. That amount of emotion couldn't be faked and the anguish she had scented in the air had been real.There was only one way to confirm it."Did you see who she was talking to about it?"Callie faltered. "There was n

Ivy was bored.Good things didn't happen whenever she was bored.It had been a month since the Silverwolf pack had been punished by the council. There had been no more attacks by rogues or hunters on any pack.Everything was slowly returning to normal. As normal as everything could be with Breeana being the Luna of their pack.Her father came home every day cursing the woman's name so much that Ivy could almost recite the minutes of all his meetings verbatim. Breeana was doing this, Breeana was doing that.Breeana was influencing Reece, Breeana was trying to reduce the authority of the Elder council.Ivy could have cared less. She just wanted the position of Alpha but Reece's eyes never left Breeana for even half a second. Before she could have a chance at her dream, she would need to get rid of Breeana, preferably without losing her head.But that was an impossible plan. She couldn't kill her, it would be too messy and the chances she would be caught were astronomically high.She cou

It was half an hour to departure and Breeana was saying her goodbyes. She was going to the Silverwolf pack because Felicity was having some problems taking over the running of the pack.The complaint had come while she had been in the Elder council meeting and somehow gotten manoeuvres into taking the assignment since it was 'beneath the Alpha but somehow above his Gamma and Beta.'She knew Elder Elvis just wanted to get her out of his hair. Not that she minded, she would do well outside of his circle. The only thing she felt sorry about was leaving her mate, brother and sister-in-law. Her parents had left two weeks back to go on their travelling. There was still nothing about Ari. Nothing.It was like she had just upped and vanished into thin air.Breeana refused to talk to Elder Elvis about it again after their last disastrous conversation."Call me.""Yes. Every day.""You can come to visit me as well."Breeana arched her brow."Reece, that doesn't even make sense. I'm staying ther

When Breeana arrived at the Silverwolf pack she was overcome by an impending sense of doom.Maybe it was because the pack didn't seem as divided as Felicity had made it sound. Yes, there were some minor altercations and skirmishes within the pack but it seemed relatively normal for a wolf pack.Forget about five days, she could be back home in two days at most."Sorry for making you come all the way out here. I… I was just an adviser before you gave me this position. I didn't know what to do when my pack members acted like my giving them orders was the end of the world.""It's alright, Felicity. I understand. Power and authority can be difficult to wield at first." Breeana remembered how hard it had been for her to fill Ari's shoes. "But it will get better, I promise."Felicity seemed at a loss for words at her response."You are nicer than I thought you would be."Breeana would have appreciated the compliment but the way she said it was off. Breeana's thoughts went to her mate. She m

The door to Reece's room opened as Rhea was taking off her clothes in the shower.She had not expected him to come up so soon. It was because Sarah had delayed her. She had wanted to take a shower before but there was no time now. She stepped out of his bathroom naked.She looked around the room. Reece was nowhere to be seen. Had she misheard?"Reece?" She stepped further into the room before she detected the scent of someone behind her. Swirling to face the person, she saw Ivy, a vase in her hand."Nap time."The heavy metal vase came down before she could escape and she fell, a ringing sound in her ears as her vision blurred."Thank you so much for your help."Ivy's voice sounded like it came from underwater and although she wanted to speak up, her tongue didn't remember how to and she fell unconscious.Ivy found her clothes in the bathroom and dressed her up. The only one getting lucky tonight would be her. She took out the liquor she had brought in for this moment and sprinkled it
