Now that only the two of them stood on the paved path, a certain nervousness took ahold of Quinn. She pulled her hand out of his, her eyes shifting away from his intense gaze. “So, uh…I’ll just take you to the pack house first…I’m certain that’s where you’ll be staying during your time here.” “Okay
Quinn gasped when a hand grabbed onto hers, stopping her in her march towards the fields. “You didn’t answer me, Quinn. Why?” “That's because…because it’s none of your concern whether he built me a house or not.” “You think so?” He chuckled, the sound as dark as the night. “You don’t get to tell m
“Or perhaps that’s taking it too far…must I show you who you belong to by different means…? After all, there are many ways to leave my mark on you without actually leaving it, right Quinn?” His words promised Quinn something she could not explain, they held such determination that she knew he would
He began with leaving blatant marks on her inner thigh, riling her up until she could barely take it anymore. His eyes were still on her, watching her as he moved closer to the apex of her thighs. Quinn was impossibly wet, so much so that she felt ashamed of herself. It’s been months since she had
His mouth was as wild as lupins, he was the alpha king; he could get any woman he wanted, and he chose her? The girl with the scar of an abandoned mark on her neck… Quinn laughed bitterly. If she fell for him, he’d toss her aside…because him too would soon realize that she wasn’t enough, even if it
After Alpha Zayd left, Quinn took a shower and went to Jeo’s office, determined to be a good beta, so that at least her father could keep his space in the pack. Her walk was quiet and lonely, only the marketplace was lively, but Quinn was too caught up in her thoughts to talk to the people who’d ca
Zayd cocked his foot against Dantae’s thighs, looking at nothing in particular. “You guys have mates…give me some suggestions, it seems she’s angry at me.” “Why? Did you f*ck up?” Dantae asked, shoving his foot off for the hundredth time. “What exactly did you do?” “That’s none of your business…ju
Quinn didn’t go home until there was no sun in the sky. She’d sat on the tree root and thought about everything over and over again until she was mentally drained and tired and hungry. She thought going home would relieve her of all of that stress, but sadly, going home only increased her anxiety…
Jeo walked back to the shabby cabins where his men were. He was angry…at her and at himself. He regretted coming here now more than ever. It was all for nothing. She carried too much vengeance, the hate she had for him could never amount to love.A tired sigh left his lips as he shoved one of the ca
“You know, I was happy about coming here…I thought I could probably make something work, but with how much you seem to hate me for crimes I didn’t commit, nothing will ever work out between us. And I’ll just f*cking accept it.” River shifted her gaze away from him as he left, making sure to aggres
When the door creaked open, and he saw her leaning against the desk in the center of the room…that was when he breathed out…almost gasping at her beauty. She was wearing a bodysuit, one that covered but also showcased all of her. It was etched to her body, showcasing its every curve and the curves
Jeo came to a sudden stop in the woods he’d intruded. He could smell stale blood…stale werewolf blood. He could also smell the venomoons that resided behind the invisible lines that marked their borders. He couldn’t see it, but somehow, he could tell exactly where their lands started, and he didn’
Before Quinn could respond, Jeo quickly stood to his feet, holding a hand up. “I’ll do it…! I’ll do it…” His impatient yell and then whispered words gained him everybody’s attention, their eyes swung his way, all summing him up as though he’d gone mad. “Did you really just volunteer? Do you want
She took a seat in the last empty chair around the table without Zayd even having to tell her to. “I thought this alliance was about unity and peace, but there is no peace or unity when my people have to be on constant lookout for your next strike. We’ve withstood enough of this, if another mutt wal
Two weeks after the meet and greet, an official meeting was called and surprisingly, Jeo was to attend. He wasn’t exactly sure why Zayd wanted him to be present, he’d never been a part of something like this before…considering the size and the rank of his pack… He was sure this had something to do
And then she trudged through the door. Her words hurt, but Jeo followed her anyway, stopping when they made it to a door opposite to the one they just walked through. She sighed, turning to face him with eyes nonchalant and fierce; kind of like Quinn’s. “May I ask why you’re following me?” Jeo cl
She didn’t look at him for long, but he could see the recognition in those mesmerizing eyes. She knew who he was…and yet she…she ignored him? Why? And this aura she possessed…what was it? She wasn’t a werewolf…but her presence was strong. If she was the River Adams Zayd spoke of, then what exactly
