Edwina's POV...You know the most awkward situation about emotional moments? They make you short of words, and then you become dumb all of a sudden. I have never felt this form of happiness that filled the pit of my belly since I was born. This is the closest I have ever been with my sister since I have known her.Sonia poured every of her heart's content out to me, and I felt blessed. We still held onto each other, each one of us sniffing. I'm sure Becca would have gotten tired of the sight. But I was enjoying the moment, scared it won't last, and Sonia would return to being the stiff and rude person I had always known her to be. I wasn't certain yet if she was bipolar.She let me off, chuckling lightly as she wiped at my wet face. "You look like a mess."I imitated her action, "you too."We stared at each other again and laughed. This moment will be cherished by me forever. I stayed quiet for a moment, trying really hard to gather my thoughts.I sat upright, taking back my hands fro
Alexander's POV...When one of the workers had told me that Edwina was at her sister's, a part of my joyous dick had deflated. But the moment I stepped back into the room and got a sniff of her scent. I knew for sure no part of me would back down until I screwed the hell out of her.I hurriedly headed into the shower to take my bath; my legs had been cramped all day, staying in the wheelchair. My eager self had jumped into the tub, relaxing into its soapy content, forgetting to lock the door.With my eyes closed, I let out a deep breath. I felt a bit relieved that we were getting somewhere regarding the issues of the impending doom that the night howlers pack might have to face.Different sorts of things were tangled up together, and sometimes it messes so much with my head that I wish I could hide far away. The mind does have a way of its own, just when I thought I had enough on my plate.Thoughts of Edwina ripped me off them. I didn't know what I was feeling toward her. Maybe lust,
Edwina's POV...The conversation had been going so well, the food was soul-filling, and my happy state of mind made me feel fly. The sex even made my day more awesome.The question he threw next caught me so off guard I would have choked on the food I was chewing."I didn't get to ask you. How did you come to know about the crescent mark?" Came his counterattack.I didn't realize I had been staring into space until Xander called out my name."What's wrong, Edwina? Why did you space out?""I...I..I'm sorry didn't mean to." I gulped hard, trying to find a better way to reveal the truth to him."Why do I feel like there is more to this?" His tone was getting serious now. Within a second, he had moved from the sweet voice to a more diplomatic tone."Will you let me explain?" I questioned, dropping my cutleries.Folding his arms against his chest, Xander rested back in his chair, staring blankly at me."You should start from the beginning." He drawled out dangerously.I shut my eyes, hopin
Authors POV...Standing in her way, Caleb held the door firmly with his hand, looking her straight in the eye. Ramona pulled at the door with him; she had closed for the day's work and had intended to head out of the office when Caleb had shown up unexpectedly, holding out the door and caving her in."Get the hell out of my way Caleb!" She warned."No, I won't. We ought to have a discussion as normal adults would. If not, we both won't leave here today." Caleb insisted.She rolled her eyes, "I didn't realize the beta had so much free time on his hand. I should come work for you."Taking a chance on her relaxed hand on the door, Caleb pushed her roughly against the wall, kissing her intensely. Not letting her make an escape move, he pinned her against the wall with his left hand, using the right hand to hold up her leg around his waist. In a swift movement, he had ripped her pant off, jabbing his fingers into her already dripping pussy.Ramona gasped, "Caleb...""Tell me to stop," he p
Authors POV...Jason chewed rapidly on a nut, his mind working faster than his mouth. He had been in deep thought for days; it was becoming more disturbing that he had traitors amongst his clan.He has been trying hard to figure out ways to make them pay without necessarily alerting their enemies, which was the plan. But at the same time, being discreet in carrying out such a purge was extremely risky."Should we inform the others who aren't with the mark?" He questioned no one in particular, "what if they are also one of them, but not with the mark?"Scratching his head roughly, almost peeling his scalp. One of the hardest things to do was fight an enemy within. It isn't an easy task."Ah, so much for a leader. Who the hell chews but in this sort of times?" Carlos taunted as he moved swiftly to take some of the nuts.Jason glared at him, "have you lost your mind? Why the hell would you do that?""You seem like you needed some help with it. I'm your brother, you are my brother....""I
Alexander's POV...Having conversations that revolve around personal hurts and betrayal makes my head ache. I had to swallow my pride and plead with Edwina over dinner. She had a point. Just because she has more mind to forgive and let go of grudges doesn't make her foolish or less smart than the rest of us.I sighed as I flipped through the files on my table. I had decided against retiring to bed immediately, spending some time in the study. Edwina had seemed to have a long day and was too tired to keep up with me after she ate her dinner.I was planning to work on some stuff on my laptop when Caleb called, saying Carlos had something important to share.Times without number, I had warned that brute not to bring pack matters to me late at night. But then, he said it was very important, and I needed to hear it. Not like he knew what Carlos had to say.The door clicked open, and I looked up to see Caleb's face contorted in a horrible shape. A child would see him and cry to his or her m
Edwina's POV..."I can't seem to understand Caleb. He goes from being friendly at one point to acting all protective like a mother hen in one minute." Becca complained as she arranged the clothes in my closet.It was one of those days I just loved to laze around and do nothing but listen to gossip from Becca or complaints like she was doing at the moment. I had woken up to a cold bed.Xander had headed out early yet again, and I had forgotten to ask him how the prisoners' training was coming up. Thinking back to last night, it felt as if I was being dramatic.If I must admit, Xander is a good and very lenient person. I couldn't even do as much as pout my discomfort when I was with Ben. I had to act like it was all fine, and I had no problem being treated like shit.The thoughts had been on my mind when I woke up, and I wanted to tell him how sorry I was. But he had gone off before I could even blink my eyes.I sat up on my elbow to get myself back into the present time. "What exactly
Edwina's POV...It felt like I would convulse if I didn't get to sit and have some water. My blood pressure was too high to curtail the details of my environment."Where is my sister?" I screamed out again, almost losing a step.Becca was behind, luckily to hold me still."Calm down Luna. She is being attended to by the theta."Not listening to whatever she had to say, I wiggled myself out of her hold and barged into the room. Sonia laid down, looking so pale with a bandage wrapped around her right foot.The theta was running a check on her, and sensing my presence, she turned to me.Bowing lightly, she held a small smile. "Good day, dear Luna." Seeing my eyes going back and forth between her and my sister, she smiled a bit wider."You don't have to worry, Luna. It's just a sprain; she would be fine. Might take a week or two.""How is the baby?" I asked, my heart in a panic mode."Very fine. Pubs are very strong and exhibit such traits right from the belly. And moreover, her wolf is q
