Well, these were two very stressful chapters. What did you think?
Ayda“You’re worthless,” Masuzyo growls, his eyes are red and he’s frothing at the mouth like he’s rabid.Suddenly Asena leaps from out of nowhere, ripping him away from me before taking a protective stance in front of me.“Asena, what are you doing? Why….why are you separated from me? Am I dead?”“
“Luna Ayda, do you know where you are?” she asks.“Hospital,” I say, but my throat is dry, and I begin coughing. She hands a cup of water to Dimitri who puts it to my lips. “Easy, Ayda. A little at a time. There you go.”When I finish the water, Dr. Akeso begins again.“Do you remember how you got h
DimitriI’m so thankful that Ayda is awake and back to normal. At least for now. Whatever happens in the future, I’ll deal with it, and once I’ve marked her, I’ll know if she starts spinning out of control mentally.I called her forced proximity with me her punishment, not because I ever plan to pun
“How about we do dinner together in our room like always. I’d like Ayda to take it easy this afternoon. Dr. Akeso says she’s doing well, but she wants to see her again tomorrow.”“Okay, Dad. Maybe I can help make dinner and I can bring it up with me when I join you.”“That’s a great idea, son. And I

“I love them.”“Good. I have several sauces to dip them in too,” he says, starting to unpack everything. I help him, setting up four places at the table.When we’re done, I invite Sergi to join us.“That’s okay, Luna. I can eat when Alpha returns,” he says.“Nonsense. Apparently, I need to get to kn
Luca looks around before turning back to me. “Luna Ayda, we, your pack members, failed you before. We didn’t realize how horrible Alpha Masuzyo was to you. We didn’t know the extent….” he stops, collecting himself. “We didn’t know. But we do now and we, your pack, refuse to submit to a man who would
DimitriI’m not sure I’ve ever seen such dedication to someone. These individuals left their pack, with their pups, and were willing to go rogue, just so they could let Ayda know that they were sorry they didn’t protect her. Part of me wants to scream at them for not protecting Ayda, but the other p
