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
Quinn’s heart pained as she stood breathlessly behind the tall, oak tree by the pack borders. She had known it for a while now, after three years of never-ending love between her and her mate, the bond was finally fading. Unlike before, there was a distance between them, he only spoke to her when i
Quinn bowed to her mother; Kathrine and her father, Derrick as she adjusted her bag straps on her back. “I’ll be back…I’ll be gone for about four days.” “I heard…Delilah told me you’d be leaving for the wounded moon pack…do you know the way?” Derrick asked. “I don’t, but the pack members who do wi
“Quinn?! What are you doing here?” Quinn’s knees got weaker at his words. Was that what he had to say? Was that really the first thing he could ask? Quinn wiped the tears that crawled down her cheeks, looking at him with so much hate in her eyes. “I thought I’d never regret meeting you, Jeo…but no
Tomorrow took so long to come, the darkness in her room, Quinn had laid down all night staring at it until the light from the sun slowly replaced it. She kept pinching herself, trying to see if she’d be able to wake up from this nightmare… But every time she pinched herself, the pain reminded her t
From the ground where she kneeled, Quinn looked up at the man who stepped confidently through the crowd, stopping in front of her. “Stand up, Quinn…” He offered her a hand, but Quinn neglected the act of taking it. Instead, her jaws clenched tighter as she used her own strength to gather herself to
Quinn laid in her room for hours too long, and when she finally decided to open the door for food, evening had rained down on the land. The sun wasn’t bright anymore, the light was dull, much like Quinn’s mood. In the kitchen, she found the food her mother had cooked for dinner; rice and stewed mea
Quin woke up early; willing herself to follow the alpha’s order. She sluggishly went to the bathroom, brushing her teeth, showering and messing around with her hair, which she hadn’t really touched for two days. She got dressed in her room and ate two toasted breads before leaving for Jeo’s office.
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
