Authors POV...Caleb slumped into his chair, feeling like the world's burden was carried by him. The day had been a tough one, and many more of this day would follow until they had been able to conquer the sizzlers. The training had gone well without a glitch; it made him feel good knowing they were making progress. He had returned to the office due to the distress call he had received from Xander. His mind was too preoccupied to actually hear him right. However, since he was returning to work, he thought he might as well call him back.Dialing Xander's line, he picked on the first ring. Caleb chuckled, "miss me that much?""Shouldn't you be glad I do?" Xander's voice boomed from the receiver."It's obvious there is a limited time you can go without me. Whichever way, I will always be by your side, baby."There was a slight pause, "I should tell Edwina to be careful of you around me. I really like my Luna, not you."Caleb laughed lightly, picking up a pen from the table and tossing it
Authors POV...The cool breeze hit her nerves, and the need to shift and run around the woods was imminent. But she felt lazy at the same time, the day had been long, and all she wanted was to take a stroll and clear her head. Working with royals made life uneasy for the mere workers, as their needs must be placed first before yours. But truth be told, the distraction was necessary.If the Luna hadn't been so preoccupied with her own problems, she would have been wallowing in the self-pity and depression she found herself in the past week.Becca heaved as she walked towards the foot of the large rock tree that looked good enough to sit on. Everyone like to call it the protective tree as it overlooked the whole of the night howler's pack. It is just some minutes away from the palace. Easing herself to the ground, she inhaled the familiar scent of a cold night, holding her leg up to her chest. The serenity calmed her nerves, and she felt more relaxed.Tears formed in her eyes as she loo
Authors POV...Xander laughed so hard he had to clutch his sides to keep a hold of himself. Caleb stared point blank at him, not finding any of his reactions amusing. He had just explained to him what had transpired the night before as regards Becca.In his confused state of mind, he had driven straight down to the pack house to ensure she had gotten back in, only to find her and Carlos at the main entrance talking like they were old-time friends. He didn't know what it was, but it didn't sit right with him seeing them together. Becca looked extremely relaxed; she was always that way around him since she was a shy person.He had walked straight up to them and dismissed Carlos with the excuse that he needed to see Becca urgently. He then held her by the hand and led her to her room. When he was sure she was tucked in her bed, he left to go home."Why would you even do that?" Xander questioned, still hiccuping from the laugh."I just felt the urge to protect her." Caleb defended."The l
Alexander's POV...My whole blood almost dried up as I saw a guard open the door, giving room for Edwina and Sonia to come in. Making jokes with Caleb had nearly made me forget why I had woken up in a sore mood this morning. I wasn't in the mood to see anyone or have any crazy-like discussion. However, Edwina had reminded me again of the promise I made to her.Sometimes I feel caged by her. I can't help refusing her request. I observed Sonia as she walked in, with Edwina acting as her support. Her baby bump had grown bigger from the last time I saw her, and I must say, she looked so pale. One might fear she would pass out if not held up well.I had no idea what I was thinking, just as they both bowed and sat on the couch available for visitors in the office. I nodded towards Caleb, who stood and helped wheel me, he took a seat, and I moved my wheel closer to kiss Edwina fully on the lips.I know my petty mind was to show Sonia how much I had moved on. Or probably because Edwina looked
Authors POV...John stomped the little grasses like a soldier ant on a mission, he had been expecting to hear from Jared, but it was obvious the rat had taken him for a fool and had no intent to give him a response to the assignment he had given.After days of not picking up his calls, he eventually got to speak to him and arrange a meeting at their hidden spot.Dressed in his usual black cloak, he sneered at the sight of Jared. Who stood tall, looking at him with no remorse."You didn't tell me you have started working with compassion." John threw at him"What do you mean by that?" Jared acted oblivious, "I did your job and I am here to collect the rest of my money.""You must think I'm stupid! You brat!" John spat. "If you killed her, how then did she get out of jail alive, unscathed?"Jared dared to act shocked, and John felt the urge to slap him into a coma. "Did you give the job to someone else, not trusting me?""Shut the hell up! I didn't know if you defrauded me of my money by
Ben's POV...My wolf purred proudly as I slid my softened dick out of Malia's slick pussy. Damn! Her pussy felt like paradise. The way it made me feel every time I fucked her and her intense response to every of my thrust always made me roar.Since the day of the party, we had begun to spend more time around each other, and I was hardly doing anything. On the other hand, she uses pack duty as an excuse to get dick-pumped.I'm starting to think I have a knack for other people's women. Malia's mate is the head of the sizzlers pack warriors. She complained about not getting fucked enough when she came to me because he was always busy. Not like the information mattered to me, I was enjoying the creaminess of her pussy to care about whoever she was tied to. Not even alpha bethel can make me not cum all over her.Collapsing into the bed, I heaved in bliss. It had been a long marathon, stretching my hand out to check my wristwatch by the bedstand. I wasn't surprised to find out we had been f
Edwina's POV...I was feeling restless again since Sonia had been brought to the palace. I couldn't find it in myself to check up on her. I wasn't sure if I wanted to see her or not; everything just seemed more complicated. I had tried to distract myself by heading to the library that had become my safe haven to keep my mind occupied.The moment I opened up a book, it reminded me of Ben. The description of the hero was almost in tune with Ben's identity. I felt some energy surge through my inner thighs at the mere thought of him.Truth be told, he still had some hold on me without necessarily being around. I missed him. Shutting my eyes tightly, I tried to get the thoughts out of my head. Xander would have my head thrown into the depths of the sea if he ever caught me thinking of the man who had almost ruined his life.The thought of his men lingering around the night howler's pack lingered in my mind. It was my duty as the Luna to protect my people next to my husband. I couldn't let
Edwina's POV...The first thing to note about Sonia is; she is extremely rude and condescending. Even if I was her younger sister, I'm still the Luna of the pack, and she needed to put some respect for my name. I had not seen her act grateful since I brought her back from the cell. She should be grateful to me for saving her from that hell hole and whatever illusion she had of her life being threatened.Having her stand over me and talk to me, whichever way she liked, was making me very annoyed. I watched as Becca tried her hardest to keep a straight face. Sonia knew exactly what she was doing, trying to trigger my anger. But, the moon goddess had my mind sitting pretty, and I had no intention of getting angry. My day had been quite moody; it was unnecessary to add Sonia's pettiness.Seeing I wouldn't budge, she eventually sat in front of me. Throwing me a death glare."Why the hell did you come here to disrupt my peace?" She threw at me.I rolled my eyes, "can we both pretend to be d
