I watched her the night her father tried to kill her. I knew what he was planning to do, and I stood there in the shadows watching, unsure if I wanted to intervene. I decided to wait and see how things played out. If I end up being needed, I can always change my mind.Her wolf was interesting. I saw it a few days ago, and the color is different on her birthday, though, which is intriguing. I'll have to let them know. I followed her to her new pack. She was settling in so well. I almost reached out to her at the diner until she started talking to Stephanie and Alice. What a shame that was. It was probably best, though, as I don't know where things will end when we talk.Sweet little Lila's mate is the alpha. I've continued to watch her, and she is settling in as well as they expected. I need her to get very comfortable and learn all that she can. To my surprise, she agreed to marry Luke. She moves fast; maybe she isn't quite as sweet and innocent as we all believe.Lila and little Ezra
I am going with Stephanie, Betty, Donte, and Jake to pick out my wedding dress. Donte and Jake have become some of the best friends I could have asked for. They will help make sure I choose a dress Luke will love. They are also coming for protection in case my dad is looking for me. Margot, Luke's sister, is also meeting us at the dress shop. It will be my first time meeting her in person. So far, we have only met through Facetime. We're going to Scottsdale to look for my dress.I tried on too many dresses at the first shop; none were right, though. I need something that fits and doesn't need any alterations as we won't have time for the wedding in a week. I finished my classes, and we set a date as soon as possible. I am so ready to marry Luke that it scares me a bit. I don't think there is anything I have ever wanted more. I'm a bit scared because I have never been this happy. Luke is perfect for me, and I am terrified I might somehow mess it up.The second shop we go into is smalle
I don't think I have ever felt the way I did getting the call from my mom that Lila had been attacked. I don't know how this happened. I don't know what would have happened if the doctor couldn't get to her as quickly as he did. Her heart rate was low, and her breathing was shallow.Being back at the pack hospital means she has the best treatment. Unfortunately, we don't know what happened and what she was given, but she is still unconscious. If there is anything to find, Jake will find it. My mom and Margot were just here checking on Lila. They brought me breakfast and a change of clothes as I refused to leave her side last night. I thought she would have woken up by now."Luke, the toxicology test came back," stated the doctor as he came into the room. I was on my feet and beside Lila."Morning glory" The doctor's eyes locked on mine.This was an answer I wasn't prepared for. You don't see poisoning by morning glory."What do we do now?" I asked, looking for anything the doctor's fa
I heard that our new Luna had returned from dress shopping by ambulance. That was the signal I needed to know that the plan had been set in motion.I saw Jake in the park eating lunch with little Ezra and decided this would be the perfect time to gauge what they knew if anything."Hey Jake, how is Luna doing?" It makes me sick knowing she is the Luna. She doesn't understand the responsibility it requires and isn't worthy. Lila is weak and trusts too easily what Luna, in her right mind, accepts a bunch of rogues into their pack. She didn't even question any of us; she just welcomed us all in and assumed we were loyal to her. Her idiot of a mate didn't even attempt to stop her. He's a moron too."Hey, man! She is doing okay." Jake answered in between bites.This whole d*mn pack is too relaxed. They seem to think they're above any of the issues that other packs face regularly. This is going to be easier than we thought. Even with Luke having increased security, it's still more relaxed th
When I woke up, the first thing I noticed was how uncomfortable the bedsheets they were almost like parchment paper. I sat up slowly, my body feeling weak, looking around and adjusting my eyes to the light that shone through the large window. I saw Luke sleeping on a chair. He looked very uncomfortable, and I heard a little snoring from the boy who had curled up in the bed beside me.I tried to sit up further, but I realized I was connected to an IV. I suddenly felt very sick. I saw the trash can and woke Ezra to hurry and bring me the small garbage pail. Ezra hurries, bringing it to me. The noise woke Luke up, who was by my side instantly, holding back my hair."Lila, are you okay?" Luke asked, seeming so unnerved. Ezra, on the other hand, was just happy to see me awake. He walked over to the door of the room and yelled."Leela is up!" he closed the door and ran to my bed.The doctor was in the room within minutes. I read the name tag Dr. Lumen"How are you feeling, Luna?" Dr. Lumen
I was getting ready to go to training when I decided to check in on Lila by opening my laptop. I watched, and my heart sank as I heard Ezra start to answer questions. Gemma is going to be p*ssed. This throws off the entire plan. We will need to find another way. I hurry to unplug my laptop and throw my stuff into a duffle bag, and I am out the door in just mere minutes.I am in the safe place I had scoped out when I first arrived here. It doesn't have the scent of any wolves and is far enough from the little cabin that no one would think of looking for me here. I covered my trail as well. Luckily for me, mom taught me well. I stocked it over the last couple of weeks, just in case. Mom always said it's important to be prepared. You hope for the best while preparing for the worst, and luckily, I have always followed that advice. That's why I made sure to find a place where I could lie low for days or even weeks if I needed to. This hideaway is an old underground lava tube. They have tho
Luke had his men looking for Hudson, but it was as though he had just disappeared, with no trace of him to be found. Jake was still trying to learn more about Hudson and had reached out for help. Luke and I discussed putting off the wedding, but we didn't want to wait any longer, and today was the day.My long dark hair was done in intricate braids, coming together for an elegant updo. My make-up was done naturally, except the smokey eye green was added to the eye shadow to make the green in my eyes stand out even more. My dress was beautiful. I felt beautiful. I dreamed of this day as a little girl. Meeting someone and falling in love, knowing I wouldn't ever feel lonely or unwanted because someone chose me. They loved me because they wanted to love me, not because they forced me to.I was giddy with excitement, knowing I would soon be married to Luke. After the ceremony in a private room, we had the paperwork in order to officially adopt Ezra as well. The council had already approve
Anticipation and excitement surged through me as Luka and I entered our bedroom."Do you need help getting out of your dress?" already coming behind me and helping to unfasten the delicate button. His warm fingers brush slowly along my spine with each button he releases, and it causes a warmth to pulsate into my core. I can already feel my panties become damp with my desire. I hear Luke inhale deeply, and I can scent my arousal. My dress falls to the floor, and Lukes turns me gently so I'm facing him in just my strapless bra, lacy panties, and high heels.I feel so connected to Luke in a way I couldn't have imagined. He smiles at me with his luscious lips, and he leans down, taking my mouth in his. His breath is warm and tastes of chocolate and champagne. His tongue moves along my lips as I grant him access. I return his kiss, and he wraps one hand around my waist, the other finding its way into my hair. He pulls gently, causing my head to tilt back, granting him better access to my m
