“Yeah…” She cracked an egg, pouring its contents into the bowl. “Pass me the mixer.” Jake opened the drawers beneath the counter one by one until he found it, passing it to her. She gave it a rinse under the pipe before starting to mix what she had in the bowl. Jake continued to stare at her, not
Something was happening and Delilah wasn’t sure what it was. Jake was starting to become distant…he wasn’t the adamant man trying to persuade her to love him anymore.Most times he’d stare off into space instead of looking at her. He also preferred to sit in silence rather than starting up a convers
Should she actually comb her hair? She hadn’t done anything to impress him since she came here…maybe she should. Her hand reached for the black comb on the dresser as the other pulled the elastic hair band out of her hair, letting it down.She gave it a side part, remembering that the last time she’
Delilah flinched at the harshness of his tone, her hand trembling as she brought it to the clip in her hair, pulling it out. She glanced at it in her palm before slowly placing it on his desk, and then her hands nervously clasped together in front of her.She didn’t say anything, she just stared at
Slowly, her hand turned the knob and she pulled the door open even slower. Just as expected, Beatrice stood there, smirking down at her. She knew it…she was going to get a hell of a beating tonight. “I never thought a coward like you would actually open the door. You’ve braved up since Jake starte
Jake watched as Delilah took a deep breath, reaching into his lap to grab ahold of his hand. “Hi…Loilitha…” Her voice was as low as a whisper; soft and gentle. “I’m sorry that I had pried into your diary…I know so much about you, and yet, you know absolutely nothing about me. You probably aren’t do
He wanted to see her, he hadn’t seen her since the night he almost killed her off. He wasn’t going to apologize for that, she deserved it…but he had to at least tell her to be careful out there. The direction she was trudging in was a different world from the one she currently lived in…she will be
Delilah’s fists balled against the tree as she watched the scene play out in front of her. She was standing in plain sight, and yet, it seemed she was invisible in their world; nonexistent. Nobody batted an eye her way, and even after uttering a tragic goodbye, the duo in front of her did not let e
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
