Hi Darlings, thank you for reading, we are about to venture into some unexpected plot twists and turns. XOXO
Melody’s POV I slept in after crying half the night, my mind swirling with thoughts of Dominick and how gentle and caring he was with me as I sat on his lap crying like I child. I thought about what Elaine said, and I am scared, petrified of being hurt, I don’t deny that. I thought of what Caspian said, when he thought, I had went to my room, how I really wasn’t living life because without love in your life are you truly living. I looked in the mirror as I brushed my teeth, today I will allow myself to feel, to embrace what Alpha Dominick wants to give me, today I will start new and fresh and if he wants to try this bond with me, then I need to risk it, risk my heart and swallow the fear that is slowly killing me. Forget the past and live for a future with hope and love, something I thought I would never need or want again, but it seems I truly do.I greeted Caspian in the kitchen and told him over coffee that today I would try with Alpha Dominick this mate bond thing. I don’t t
Alpha Dominick’s POV To say I’m over the moon in love with my mate is exactly how I feel today, it’s been a month of nothing but bliss since she opened herself up to the idea of our bond. I’ve never looked forward to each and every day as much as I do now. My mornings start as usual, training with Gamma Ashton and the warrior’s, but instead of breakfast with Claudia, Tommy and Clair, I sit in Papa’s kitchen and eat with my Luna and him. She doesn’t like it when I call her my Luna, but at least she has stopped protesting it when Clair or anyone else does. She’s gotten use to Beta Collin being around her and Papa, he had to explain that it is part of his job to watch out for her safety and to ensure she has everything that she needs or wants. She chuckled at that, “My Alpha gives me what I need and want so exactly what is it you think you can offer,” she wiggled her brows at him.I chuckled as he went beet red and stammered for an answer, it took me 30 minutes to defuse him, she ha
Melody’s POV It was already dark when we returned, it’s not unusual for this time of year, it was only 6pm, but all the lights were out in the house, we walked in and I went to Caspians room immediately to check on him, the small light next to his bed was on and the closet door was open I heard a whimper and ran to the closet. “Caspian what are you doing?”He yelled, “GET OUT, YOU THIEF.”Dominick was right behind me, and he moved me to the side, “Papa, come on,” he held out his hand, “get up off the floor.”He got him out of the closet and Caspian had the black box in his hands, “IT’S GONE,” he yelled. He threw the box, and the letters spilled out, I rushed over and picked them up and only counted 3, I looked at them and realized that Dominick’s was missing.I put them inside the box and placed it on the dresser, helping Caspian into bed, “we’ll find it, it has to be here somewhere.” His hand reached for my face, and he patted my cheek, “Okay, you find it for me.”He laid down an
Alpha Dominick’s POV I walked into my Papa’s house and I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, she had the entire house decorated with a jolly fat man as the main attraction, I understand she’s human and it is her belief that Christmas is a celebratory time, but she’s the Luna of a werewolf pack and we don’t do this shit. I didn’t say a word, when during the harvest moon festival, she cooked turkeys and baked pies, but this is over the top.She walked out of Papa’s room, wiping away tears as she tried to smile at me, “he’s not doing good today, he’s bad, really bad you may want to have all of your siblings come here, see him and talk to him, while the sun is still out and he is simi coherent.”I bit my bottom lip and shook my head and mind linked them, I wasn’t surprised when Clair ran in the house, breathing heavily and sat next to him on his bed, then she laid down next to him and put her arms around him, “I’m here with you Papa, I won’t let you go alone.”I asked Mel to stay in the
Melody’s POVI felt more than sad over Caspian’s passing but knew I had done everything I could to make him as comfortable as possible. I wasn’t surprised at the anger that flared from his family, it happens, people grieve in different ways. When Claudia pushed me up against the cupboard I felt fear, pure fear of what she could do to me, I am human after all, and she is a supernatural. I covered my throat on instinct and glared at her, “you’re upset, and I understand that, but I’ve done nothing to you.”She snarled in my face, “you’ve done nothing to deserve our brother either, but here you are.” I couldn’t understand what Alpha Dominick had to do with this, I’m confused and curious all at the same time. I looked into her eyes and became even more baffled, they didn’t turn black as the Alpha’s or Clair’s did when their wolves peeked out at me, hers were different but I couldn’t place it.Claire’s voice rang out screaming and before I could think, Alpha Dominick had removed them b
Alpha Dominick’s POVI lit the Pyre and took a step back as I began my speech, “Alpha Caspian was loved and honored by all that met him, he was a devoted Alpha, mate and father, he treated each of us as family. I, myself, will miss his guidance, his strength and his wisdom, he saw life as an experience, one that should be lived to its fullest and he honored that, he enjoyed every day, every person he came into contact with until his last breath.” I looked up at the sky, “may you find peace and look over us from your spot next to our goddess and your own,” I bowed my head as did the rest of the pack in silent prayer, once I was done I howled into the night and the pack followed. I stepped back and looked around, she still wasn’t here, and my heart sank, did she not feel I needed her, wanted her with me, had I not proven how much she meant to me that she would not be here. Elaine’s voice broke my thoughts, “where is Melody, she said she would be here.”I looked at her, “when did she
Hi, I’m Melody Cameron and I am every man’s worst nightmare, I say this because I’ve been called that by many men. I’m not your typical female, I’m not only smart and educated, I’m a real beauty and no I’m not conceited, I have eyes and am confident in my own skin. I wasn’t always like this, when I was younger, I was your typical next door kind of girl, you know the one that is sweet, kind and gentle, wouldn’t hurt anyone’s feelings to save my own life. I dressed modestly as my body developed, I was tall and curvy by the time I reached 16 and that’s when my life changed. Yup, like all good girls, I fell hard for the one boy that would tear my world apart, but today I thank him for it, wholeheartedly.I was 16 and already had the body of a vivacious 20-year-old, stacked beyond a Kardasian, but dressed like Mother Teresa, yea it was messed up, anyway that’s when I met Tommy. Oh, Tommy was everything I thought of as being perfect, gorgeous thick brown hair, beautiful to die for gree
Melody’s POV“Everyone has something they’re not proud of, but you don’t have to be ashamed over it either, you know,” I smiled at Elaine as I sit at her kitchen island.She scoffs, “Seriously, are you saying you feel no shame in doing a one and done with Charlie last night?” She removes the cupcakes from the oven and sets them on the cooling rack.The cackle that left my throat was loud, “Nope,” popping the P, “he deserved it, coming on to me like a love sick pup at his own engagement party, what else could I do,” I shrug. Eyeing up the cupcakes and then snatched one off the rack. I take a bite, “he’s lucky I didn’t tell Carla, she’d skin him alive,” I arch a brow, “these are delicious.”She shakes her head, setting the bowl of icing on the counter, “I’m just saying one of these days you’re going to screw the wrong guy and 1 or 2 things are bound to happen.”I held up a finger as I swallowed the last of the cupcake, “your right, the 2 things about screwing the wrong guy are 1, the

Alpha Dominick’s POV I was happy she wasn’t reading the new contract, I removed the professional clause, I will have no more barriers between us, if I want my mate, I will need to pursue her as much as possible while she is here. I held by the old clause and only had one chance outside of the compound and thanks to Charles and Elaine it failed. I wasn’t expecting Claudia to show up in my office to meet Melody, but I was amused by Melody’s reaction to her. I caught the spark of jealousy in her eye when Claudia touched me, normally I would move away or swat at her, but not when it got a rise out of Melody. I do affect her, and I know now I stand a shot at winning her over. I was taken back when Claudia mentioned Tommy and accused Melody of breaking his heart and walking away without a goodbye. I saw Melody’s reaction and wanted to snarl at Claudia, but before I could, Melody stood, “if there’s nothing else, I need to get back to Caspian,” she turned and walked out, leaving the doo
Melody’s POV I have 2 weeks left on my contract and I’ve been putting applications on line with no luck. Being this close to Alpha Dominick is playing with my mind and my body wants nothing more than to be near him and I can't allow it not again, not ever.We were sitting in the garden waiting for Dr. Fabian when his voice echoed through the house, “hello, Dr. Fabian here, Caspian where are you?”Caspian rolled his eyes, “if I was up your ass, you’d know it now wouldn’t you,” he shouted out towards the open doors leading into the living area of the house. I couldn’t help but chuckle at him as Dr. Fabian walked out.“Ah, Caspian always a pleasure and I see you have one of my best nurses working with you, how are you, Melody?”My brows shot up at him, “well if I was one of your best, why the hell did you fire me?”He shook his head, “I didn’t have control of that situation,” he cleared his throat, “but I see you’ve found better opportunities right here taking care of Caspian,” he tur
Melody’s POV After Carla’s fucked up wedding I returned home, I thought Caspian was going to lose consciousness he was laughing so hard at the ridiculous dress I was wearing, he spoke between catching his breath, “that’s, that’s the definition of fugly.”I laughed, “you’re right it is fugly, I’ll be right back, and we can burn it.”I walked in to my room, removed the dress and pulled on a pair of jeans and oversized sweatshirt, walked into my ensuite and gasped at the hickey on my neck, I should be mad but my fingers ran over it and a small smile curled on my lips as a shiver ran down my spine and exploded in my core. I shook it off and walked to my bed, snatching up the offending dress and walked out to the garden. Clair was there with Caspian and the grill was lit, Caspian turned to me, “go on throw it on there, then will cook some chicken and hopefully it will taste like orange chicken from the Chinese take-out, it has to be good for something other than a joke.” I couldn’t hel
