Tasting Summer Chapter 12
Summer POV“Ezra,” I moaned against his lips.“That’s Alpha Ezra to you,” he responded.Ezra held me over the bed as he dominated my lips and caressed my ass. I moaned and lost myself in his embrace. Why did I want to stop seeing him again? Because I have a fugitive and curse marks on my back!“Ezra, stop.”“Are you scared your Father will find us? He’s not here.”“What?”“I made him check out the border in the west of the pack. It’s just us.”“Yeah, us and his wife and teenage stepdaughter.”“Not getting along with his new family?”“Jade makes it known that she doesn’t like me but Marcella is a snake I can tell. She’s just like… never mind.”“Just like Rachel?” Ezra smirked.“I didn’t say that. You should still go, okay? It’s been an exhausting day.”He nodded and looked around my room.“So Rachel was right you sleep in the basement. Rachel doesn’t live here why don’t you sleep upstairs?”“Marcella thought I would be more comfortable here. I have my own bathroom too.”He nodded griml

Summer POV“W-what?” I stammered.“Why are you hiding?” he demanded.A shiver ran up my spine. If he found out that I was a fugitive, he would send me back or just kill me. I lied to him but so did my Dad. Dad broke a dozen rules by bringing me here.Fear couldn’t cripple me now. I shoved the fear down and stood. Ezra gripped my waist and stopped me from going further.“Did someone make you uncomfortable or did you see someone who made you uncomfortable?”“S-someone? Like who?”“The guys from the gas station, the rogues at the bar, the list is endless.”I cringed. He was right about that.“Nothing’s wrong, Ezra. Leave me alone okay?”He grabbed my waist and slammed me against the wall. He closed his lips on mine before I could blink. I fisted his shirt in an attempt to push him off but his tongue sought entry into my mouth and I willingly gave it to him. He pressed himself harder onto me.I betrayed myself by moaning. I couldn’t keep this back and forth with him. I wanted him. I didn’

Summer POVWe worked at the pack house again the next day. There was still a lot of unpacking and a lot of flowers to take care of. I barely saw Ezra today. When I did see him I couldn’t help hold his stare a little longer. The urges to hold him and kiss him were strong but we couldn’t do that out in the open. We needed the shadows to keep us safe at least for now.Lettie sighed heavily as she settled on the floor next to me. I couldn’t wash any more dishes. The ball was in two days and some of the preparations were running late because Rachel kept forgetting to order things but she didn’t forget to go out on lunch dates with Ezra under the pretences of discussing the Crescent Moonball.Hunter told me the caterer hadn’t been booked yet.“Doesn’t the pack house have house help that should be doing this?” I asked.Wren had fallen asleep under the dining table hours ago. We’ve been on our feet all day. I missed working at the bar. Now that I thought about it two thousand dollars was not

Summer POV“Daddy,” I replied.“Don’t Daddy me, Summer, do you know what time it is?” He barked.I cringed. “Too late to be yelling?”Dad paced the length of the couch in the living room. It was hard to take him seriously with his I Love Barbeque T-shirt and plaid pyjama pants on.“I know what it is you’re seeing someone, aren’t you?”My heart slammed forward and heat rushed to my ears. “I…uh… yes, yes I am.”After today Ezra and I were technically together. I was dating the Alpha, it felt surreal to even say. It felt worse to say I was dating my Dad’s boss.“Summer Gracelyn!” I cringed. Did he have to use my government name?“You were supposed to lay low and knowing this town there’s no way he’s a human.”“It’s been months Dad how long do you want me to lay low?”“Until all this is nothing but a memory! Is this boy going to accept you when he sees your marks, Summer? Have you told him?”I looked away. “No.”“Summer, do you want to get involved with another boy after what happened?”

Summer POVI slipped into Ezra’s office. I found him standing by the window holding a half-empty glass of scotch.“Before you explode, tell me why you’re so mad,” I said quickly.Ezra gripped the glass tighter I thought it might break in his fist.“Come on, it can’t be that bad,” I pleaded.He marched over to his desk and slammed the glass on it.“My girlfriend in the arms of another wolf is bad enough!” he roared.I blinked a few times. Ezra’s jealous? I bit my bottom lip in an attempt to hide my smirk.“This isn’t funny, Summer.”“Conner’s an old friend,” I said sweetly.I could see the possessiveness radiating off him yet I still closed the gap between us. I ran my palms up his chest and cupped his cheeks. He leaned in and kissed the inside of my right palm.“It was nothing,” I whispered.“No one touches what’s mine.”I sucked in a breath. He closed the distance between us before I got another word out. He swiftly picked me up and planted me on the edge of his desk.“Do I really ne

Summer POVEzra and Hunter acted as if nothing was wrong. Ezra had a meeting at the army base with the Alpha General. I had a feeling it had something to do with the rake venom. Ezra wouldn’t tell me about it or the murders because he didn’t think I could handle it. He even called me cute.My phone rang with an incoming call. I was just walking onto our yard when Dad walked out the front door. I stared at the unknown number calling me. Only a handful of people had this number. I let the call ring until it went dead.“Shouldn’t you be at a meeting?” I asked Dad.He stopped by his truck and put his hands on his waist.“I’m on my way. I’m glad I caught you, remember I told you I wanted to find out about the cursed mark you received?”I closed the gap between us so we weren’t talking so loudly about this sensitive topic.“Yeah and?”“Well, there’s a lady we can talk to. Tomorrow night.”“Tomorrow? What about the ball?”“Oh, you have a date with that boy. Honey, you’ll have to cancel this

Ezra POVThere’s nothing anyone can do to get me into a tie. I wore the jacket that’s good enough. The ball was in full swing. Rachel organized a good ball that’s for sure but there was no sign of her. A part of me was concerned about her being heartbroken but at the same time, I wanted to give her space.“Where is she?” I grumbled as I fished out my phone from my back pocket.I checked my messages and call log. Summer hadn’t gotten back to me.“Summer,” I sighed.Was she going to back out on me?I watched as the guests interacted. There were a few of the tribe Alphas. Tribe Alphas oversaw the packs I conquered.A hand clapped on my shoulder. I turned my head and pressed my lips together to fight the smile.“Don’t even think about it, Ezra.” Roman yanked on the red tie.“Nice tie,” I smirked.“Marcella made me wear this penguin suit. When is this over?”Maybe she came with him. There was no sign of her. Not even her sweet scent in the air.“Didn’t Summer want to come to the ball or is

Summer POVI rolled on the hard floor and snivelled. I oddly had a lot of space. I opened my eyes and realized I was alone on the living room floor and the fire I went to bed with had gone out leaving behind grey ash.I rolled on my back and blinked at the ceiling. What have I done?“Good morning, princess,” Ezra said.He carried two coffee mugs. He only had a pair of pants hanging low around his waist. He sat next to me and kissed my cheek.“You okay?”I nodded and then my body responded. My back was sore and I could still feel Ezra’s hands digging into my skin from last night.“I’m a little sore but it’s a good sore.”I took the mug from him. I should have come clean last night but instead, I slept with him! I couldn’t control myself when I was with him which was dangerous.“Summer, I didn’t do this,” Ezra’s warm tone turned deadly and cold.His thumb stroked the cut Marcella made with her pocket knife. I snatched my arm back and hid it under the blanket.“Oh, it’s nothing.”“Doesn’

Tasting Summer Chapter 83
Summer POVWhy did I agree to dinner again? Right, I was starving and anything to do with food sounded like paradise! Now I’m wearing a black dinner dress that I feel is over the top and Ellen’s going to make a snarky remark about it.“Stop fidgeting with your dress. It’s sexy.” Ezra gripped my hand and planted it on his thigh.“That’s the problem it’s too much.”“Says who?”“Of course, you don’t think so you’re my mate.”He put the car in park. Ellen and her husband lived in a massive modern mansion. It could put Ezra’s house to shame but Ezra’s castle had a massive amount of land. I could imagine the parties they threw here.Ezra leaned over the console and kissed my forehead.“Just be yourself, Summer. Don’t worry about anything. I’ll be right next to you.”I chewed on my bottom lip and nodded. This would have been easier if I didn’t know Ellen hated me. Maybe she was different around her husband. Ezra and I walked to the front door and were greeted by an elderly woman in a formal

Ezra POV“It’s too soon,” I replied.“You’re worried about Gardenia, aren’t you?” She stomped to the fireplace.“I’m not scared of her.”“Oh yeah?” she raised a brow in challenge.“Listen, sweetheart. We’re taking precautions. This little guy’s the heir to my empire, my fortune—”“You have a fortune?” Summer dipped her head to the side.“Of course I do. I live in a castle. I run the most successful bar in town and that doesn’t even cut it.”“It doesn’t?” she asked.Summer didn’t know about my finances. I realized I kept the state of my pockets away from her. I didn’t mean to. I trusted her. She never made me feel like she was after me for money or status.“That’s a conversation we need to have later, but I’ve got a bunch of businesses in my tribe packs. I’ve got trusted people running them. I’m not worried about anything.”It didn’t hurt that I had a dark reputation. It came in handy when people thought about crossing me. It made them think twice.Summer blew a lock of hair out of he

Ezra POVI stuffed Summer’s dress in a garbage bag and cleaned up the mess in the bedroom. Blood was never a good sign. It was a warning of things to come. I was tired of this bitch and her threats but it was about time she showed her damn face. Her daughter Veronica penetrated our borders again during our Mating Ceremony.I didn’t tell Summer because I didn’t want her to worry. I know a part of her carries serious guilt for killing Jacob, but it was either him or her, and I was glad it was him and not her.While Summer was in the shower in the other room across the hall, I pulled out my phone and called Vik.“Any news?” I asked.“She’s around. The little bitch.” Saying Vik had family issues was an understatement.“Summer thinks your stepmother’s prowling around. She left us a gift.”“Fuck.”“When I find her, I’ll kill her.”“Listen, Ezra. I think there’s a reason Gardenia’s been buying her time.”“I’m listening.”“Okay, hear me out. I know that woman killed my Father and took everyth

Summer POVI woke to the sound of an axe hitting wood. It was still six in the morning what’s with all the noise? Yet the sun didn’t seep into the cabin. It was gloomy like the sky wanted to cry but it was holding it all in. Ezra wasn’t in the bed with me so I assumed the noise was him. I slipped into his shirt and put on my bunny slippers.I passed my wedding dress on the chair in the corner of the room. It was neatly laid on the chair. It was so beautiful I can’t believe I couldn’t wear it again.Ezra booked a cosy cabin near a river in the middle of nowhere. The next cabin was miles away so we weren’t totally alone out here. It was a romantic getaway. I didn’t think we’d have a honeymoon because we’ve lived together for so long.“Should you be chopping wood shirtless?” I called out from the front porch.He paused and straightened his spine— his back muscles“Shouldn’t you be resting?”I smiled. I closed the distance and kissed him. He grabbed my cheek and deepened our kiss.“I thou

Summer POV“So this is the girl who claims to be the future Luna,” Ellen said.How would I respond to that?“I…uh… well…”She eyed me from head to toe. I felt like I was under an X-ray machine. She adjusted her bag, raised her shoulders and continued to stare disapprovingly.I shook my head. “I’m Summer.”“I’m Ellen Turner. Ezra’s Aunt. His Mother was my sister. I’m also an esteemed member of the Pack Council. I take my job very seriously.”She reminded me of an old stuck-up school Principal. I offered Ellen a pressed smile.“I’m sure you do, Ellen.”How did she know I was here? I didn’t want to know.“The Mating Ceremony is a few days away,” she stated.I nodded. “I just have to pick up my dress. Ezra and I have everything organized. You don’t have to worry about anything.”Ellen placed a hand on her chest, threw her head back and laughed. I pressed my lips together. My wolf didn’t like her as much as I did but I forced Clover to be nice.“I have a lot to be worried about. Like the w

Summer POV“Hunter won’t let anyone into the room,” Oliver said.“I’m her sister! Her full-blood sister, not even half anymore. I want to see her.”“He’s in his wolf form, Summer and it’s damn terrifying.” Oliver rubbed the back of his head as he spoke.“Give him a minute, Summer. His girlfriend was attacked. If you were in that bed, no one would be allowed in this hospital.”I stared at Ezra. He could be so dramatic.“She got stabbed, Ezra,” I said.“Exactly, and Hunter’s worried, too. Come on, let’s get coffee. If he’s not out by the time we return, then we’ll figure things out.”“Can’t you make him come out?”He slipped an arm around my shoulder, and we began to walk.“I don’t have authority over Hunter anymore. He’s too powerful.”“Right… aren’t you worried about that?”Ezra sighed and punched a button for the elevator doors to open.“I’m more worried about my brother being hunted like an animal and killed for the Solaris Crown.”“That won’t happen. Remember, Hunter is really powe
Tasting Summer Chapter 77
Hunter POVShe tasted like cherry and vanilla. I dove my fingers into my hair, tugging as our lips connected. Estelle was a wildfire yet as delicate as ice. Never met a girl who could kid my ass and mend my heart all at once. I think I knew a while ago that I was screwed.“Ah Hunter,” she moaned.I growled into her lips. I lifted her thighs. Gosh, I loved her thighs and flipped her over so I was on top. I caressed her arms and lifted them over her head. I paused and stared into her eyes. I could do this my whole life. Which was scary I’d never thought about that before with any woman.“Hey, come on!”I chuckled. “Impatient much?”She bit her bottom lip. I rolled my hips forward, filling her up completely as gently as I could. She changed up my entire style. She might have been a badass out there in the real world. Estelle could kick anyone’s ass. Yet when she was with me the real Estelle came out. The shy, delicate and soft Estelle. She was soft in more ways than one. I scooped her in

Summer POV“Don’t worry he’ll be fine. I didn’t realize my own strength but I removed whatever dark spell was rooted in him.”Ezra and Hunter with Estelle arrived ten minutes ago. They hauled Dad upstairs to his room. Rachel and her family cleared out before Ezra arrived. Good, I didn’t want to deal with them ever again.Dad hadn’t woken up though he was breathing easily.I nodded and rubbed my eyes, itching to spill tears.“There’s something else though,” Hunter rubbed the back of his head.“What?” Estelle asked before I could.“I…uh… look I didn’t know it would happen!”“Spit it out Hunter,” Ezra growled. Ezra placed his hand on my shoulder and massaged it.“I couldn’t heal him without taking something from him apparently it’s how my powers work. So I took his rank. He’s not an Alpha anymore.”“Oh fuck, Hunter,” Ezra exhaled.“It was either that or let him die. I’m sorry girls.”“Whatever,” Estelle mumbled.I glared at her. “He can’t be the Alpha General anymore because he’s not an

Summer POV“You’ve had a problem with my wife since you met her, admit it,” Dad grumbled.“Yes, I admit it. I hate the fact you made me sleep in the basement when there was a perfectly good room upstairs without rats!”“We’ll talk about that later,” Dad said, shoving the front door open.“Oh, honey you’re back early,” Marcella said.“Were you doing something?” I accused.She rolled her eyes. “And you brought this one.”“Summer’s not staying long,” Dad said. I swear I saw sweat on his brow. It wasn’t hot in the house by any chance.“Of course, she still has to clean out her room. I want to convert the basement into an in-house gym!” She clapped her hands.I rolled my eyes dramatically and made sure it lasted long enough for her to see it.“Yes, Summer should get her things,” Dad said.He wasn’t sounding like himself again. I should have come with backup but I was here now and I couldn’t back out.“What did you do to him, Marcella? Aside from lie!”Marcella placed a hand on her chest an
