ALICE. I took back everything I said about refusing Joshua and making him work hard for this bond. One smile from that female on the receptionist’s desk, and I came like a hurricane, marking my territory. I guess when all your life you fought to be noticed, you would always have the insecurity within you that you would not be good enough. And Joshua? He was my mate. Even if it was only the mate bond that was making him addicted to my kisses, I still wanted to believe he wanted me. I was terrified the female with blonde hair and big boobs would get his attention, and I would be left with nothing - again. So, I fought the best way I knew how. But to be fair, I was actually calm when I staked my claim because, if it were the old me, there would be hair-pulling and name-calling involved. Even when I was furious with Joshua—yes, because he fucked her—I was still protecting my Alpha’s image. I didn’t want to add any more to whatever reputation he had. Even if I was mad at him, h

LADY RIVER. “Alpha…” It was all that I could say as I looked at him because I had no idea what his name was. I never really knew the names of the Alphas. He looked bored, waiting for my response as he tapped his fingers on the window sill of his car. “I’m walking home,” I added. “Are you kidding me?” He scoffed. “You’re from Eclipse, right?” I nodded my head as my clutch on the paper bags tightened. “Get in.” He motioned with his thumb, pointing to the seat beside him. “In your car?” I asked, my eyes widening. His black car looked brand new, as it was too shiny and the leather seat looked expensive. “Get in!” He said it louder this time, and my body jolted before I hurried to the other side of the car and pulled the door open while my heart thudded loudly as if it would jump out of my chest. The moment I closed the door, I felt my neck burn, so I turned my head slowly, and I was right. He was looking at me with a scowl on his face. “Do you know it’s dangerous to walk in a n

ALPHA CYRUS. “Get up! Get up!” I drew the window curtains open, letting the sun’s rays enter and light up Amber’s room before I turned around to face her again. I had already pulled her blanket off, so she ended up hiding her face under her pillows. “Amber! I’m serious. I need you at breakfast today.” “You can’t always ask me to do things for you! I’m not your Luna!” “Of course, you’re not, but you need to practice if you want to be a Luna. Especially if you still want to become Zach’s Luna.” “I hate you!” “Don’t tell me you stay up late again because of him?” “Leave me alone!” “Just fucking tell me, and I will go there and punch his fucking face! This has been going on for too long already.” I was already pissed off, but I was trying to keep my tone calm. “Leave Zachary Vernon alone!” She yelled. “Should I be the one telling you that? Leave him alone!” “Get away here, Cyrus! Just because it’s easy for you to stay away from her doesn’t mean it’s easy for me.” A growl rumb

ALICE.My hands sweated as Joshua stopped the car in front of the Blue Meadows Packhouse. He had been opening doors for me lately, but I didn’t want to look privileged in front of Amber, so I pushed my door open before Joshua could come for me. But I still appreciated that he went to my side, took my hand, and guided me toward the Williamson siblings.“Alpha Cyrus,” Joshua let go of my hand and extended a hand to Cyrus, which he took and firmly shook before throwing back a smile to my mate. “Welcome to the Blue Meadows Pack, Alpha Joshua.” He paused before looking at me. “And should I address you as Lady Alice or Luna Alice? No pun intended, but I honestly have no idea at the moment.”“Luna Alice,” Joshua answered.I extended my hand. I usually see my mother give her hand for another Alpha to kiss, but this seemed awkward for me because I had known Cyrus almost my whole life, so I opted for a handshake. “A pleasure to be here, Alpha Cyrus.”“Can we cut the formality?” Amber spoke so

JOSHUA. I wasn’t expecting Cyrus’ outburst, and no matter how I tried to tell myself I would not let it affect me, I couldn’t. I knew I was wrong on many levels. I didn’t like Eugene, and I knew how many Omegas he had pushed into his room over the years, but I kept turning a blind eye. Now, I was not even sure if he touched River, but I wondered if River told Cyrus something that made him so furious that I was not letting Eugene go. Obviously, I had my plans. I wanted him out, but I wanted to wait until I became an Alpha. But who would be my Beta? I had no idea. Cyrus was right. I was only planning for myself to get the title, but nothing for my pack. I was just like my father, not caring who would be the people in my ranks as long as he was Alpha. I didn’t want to admit it, but Cyrus’ outburst opened my eyes to many things. So, even if my pride hit the floor, I followed him to his office after he walked out on me and requested to have another word with him. We talked calml

JOSHUA. I left the Blue Meadows territory with a heavy heart, but Alice was fucking perfect and turned my mood around. Her mouth could do wonders and make everything a hundred times better. I had yet to thank the Goddess for mating me with her. She really knew her job so well. Alice knew her way around my body, and with her alone, she could satiate my sexual appetite. It was too early to tell, but I knew there was no way I would ever want any other female. It seemed impossible, as I had never been content with all the females around me, let alone one. But Alice — like I said, she was just fucking perfect. Aside from that, I was seeing a different side of her — something I didn’t know she had in her. I know I would never be a good brother to River or to anyone, but she was indeed the sibling River needed. Alice asked me to call the packhouse and ask for River. When my half-sister came on the line, she spoke with her, and they were talking like they had known each other their wh

JOSHUA. Two days had gone by swiftly, and all the packs I needed to visit were visited. Most of them were great encounters, while some were charged to experience. Overall, I could say that I was able to accomplish what I wanted with this task. This was the first time my father had let me meet Alphas on my own to renew alliances for the next year. I told him I wanted to add more packs to the list, and he told me to do whatever I wanted. I was sure he would be surprised if he found out what packs I visited. Eugene was supposed to come with me on this trip, and I was grateful Alice showed up, so I changed my plan. I was sure that aside from having Alice around being more pleasurable, having Eugene along would be more catastrophic than helpful. Aside from Cyrus, Alpha Dominic and the Alpha of the Green Valley Pack, Alpha Caleb, laid out the same condition. If I took Eugene as my Beta, there would be no possibility of any alliance with them. I knew they were conspiring against me

JOSHUA. ‘Dad?’ I mindlinked with my father. ‘Where are you? I heard you entered the border almost thirty minutes ago.’ ‘Heading to the old packhouse. Alice and I will stay there for tonight.’ ‘And why?’ ‘Mom doesn’t want her around.’ I answered truthfully. ‘She will come to terms with it.’ ‘Just let her for now. I don’t want her to feel Alice is a threat to her being the Luna of her own house.’ ‘She is the Luna here for a fucking twenty years. What more does she want?’ He sounded annoyed, and I was sure they had quarreled again. ‘Maybe if you made her feel like real Luna for the last twenty years, then she wouldn’t have this animosity toward Alice.’ ‘What was that supposed to mean?’ ‘You know what it means, Dad. Probably time to make your Luna feel like your Luna and not just a female you have hanging around you at the packhouse.’ There, I finally said it. I hated Mom when she acted wickedly and tried to run my life for me, but I also saw what Dad was doing to her throu
