Zayd followed Dantae back to his office, taking a seat behind his desk. He stretched his palm towards his beta, and the man placed the two letters inside. Zayd stared down at them, deciding to open the one from Jeo first…it interested him the most. He tore the envelope, pulling the paper out and un
“So you’re telling me that they really exist…and one wants to meet you?” Zayd nodded. “Two days from now…I’ll be risking my life again. I’ll go, and I’ll go alone.” “Why? How is an alliance with them going to help you?” “If you’d felt what I did that night, you’d know.” “Exactly why you shouldn’
As promised, Quinn cooked Zayd’s dinner…at the expense of bothering his mother again. It was a simple dish of spaghetti and meatballs and though she got the noodles right, the sauce gave her some trouble and so did frying the meat balls… Nevertheless, things ended a lot better than they did last ti
“I wasn’t…not until you walked in here looking like you were the food.” Quinn narrowed her eyes at him, trying but failing to keep the blush from creeping up her cheeks. “How do you even come up with those?” Zayd shrugged. “It’s an attribute you get as long as you’re born as a man. What? Is it sex
Zayd left early in the morning to go on his trip with nothing but a backpack over his shoulders. He’d given her a kiss on the forehead as he said goodbye, and now Quinn laid in her room…alone and bored. For hours, she’d just been laying here…thinking. This was so unlike her, back at her old pack, s
“Who’s Devin?” “The one you just spoke to.” “If you didn’t tell me, I’d think you were talking about the other one.” He chuckled. “I can understand why you’d think that, but Devin has proven many times that size doesn’t matter. He’d won three times in a row so far…he’ll win this match and the nex
On Quinn’s desperate journey to get to her destination, she’d stopped to rest more times than she’d wanted to. She didn’t want to strain her wolf, and then it’d end up going into hibernation again…or even end up vanishing for good… So she’d taken the necessary precautions and rested when she felt l
That same question again…the same one Jeo had asked her before rejecting her that awful f*cking night. She chuckled bitterly, and he sighed, stopping in front of her. “Quinn, I…this shouldn’t have…” He grabbed beneath her arm, helping her to her feet. “You’re not okay at the moment. Let’s talk about
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
