Caiden did nothing but watch as Nate carried Kamara off. They had a lot on their minds, but Caiden had other things on his mind that needed to be addressed, and one of them was in front of him."Did the Alpha stay to hear my final word?" Enzo gave him a sad, indifferent look. He had clearly been confronted by Kamara's statements.He said, "You are banished from the Moon Howlers pack," but Enzo wasn't shocked. "And I'll make sure no pack on the planet welcomes you into their ranks if, by some chance, you ever manage to escape from prison."While Jessie whimpered once again, unable to even protect herself, Enzo swallowed hard. Matt was waiting for this moment with great anticipation when he emerged from the prison area.He leaned against the car and watched Caiden do the same, saying, "What occured in there was a tough one. Your town's residents don't seem to think good of me.""Your scent draws them in. Besides, the pack is not accustomed to human visitors, and none of them know you as
Caiden did not want to discuss what had transpired with Jessie. Caiden had not been inside the old house since the day the complete truth about her was uncovered, and he slept in the main building. He would occasionally catch himself thinking about it, the anxiety he experienced about staying there, all by himself, and full of memories.Before long, word of his split from Jessie reached every other pack of wolves. All the young ladies in the several packs, who came from strong families, were eager to mate the alpha who was single at the moment.Something wasn't right when Lisa walked into the room that morning and noticed Caiden sitting on the couch with large dark bags under his eyes."You haven't left this place since Jessie was put in jail."She looked about the room, noting that it wasn't quite as disorganized as it had been that day. "Caiden, what's going on?"After giving Lisa a quick glance and finishing the last swallow of brandy, he got up."I'm not this way because of Jessie,
When Kamara finally made it to the pack, she was taken aback by how much was going on. Caiden was welcomed with open arms by all, and she was no different. She refused to let another second pass before resolving their differences since she had been waiting too many days for this. The children were holding on to her skirt as she walked there. In addition, she had trouble getting through the front door, but security let her in right away."Miss Kamara, the Alpha is meeting with Alpha Stourin from the Mystic Moon pack," Oscar said with a big smile.She sighed in frustration and said, "Okay, I'll wait.""I will be defying an edict from Alpha Caiden if I permit this." He took Kamara by surprise. "You may go in; he gave the order for you and the children to be permitted to enter the main room whenever you please.""Oscar, are you sure?" He nodded, and she gave him a wide, eager look. "If that's the case, I'll ask you to watch the kids while I talk with Caiden. Are you cool with that?"Oscar
I believed that nothing could sabotage my happiness. I was going to be Alpha Caiden's future Luna, and he would be pleased to hear the news I have been keeping for a while.I went to meet Caiden after getting ready. I inhaled deeply, then gave him the sweetest smile. I was terrified of the odd way Caiden was staring at me. My wolf began to stir inside me, growling."Caiden," I exclaimed with excitement before giving him a cozy hug.However, he didn't react or give me a hug in return as he used to. I gradually withdrew, hoping to make sense of what was going on.I said, "I have something to tell you," but Caiden's face remained expressionless. "Plus, it's our anniversary—three years ago on this day, we were mated and it's my birthday.""I am aware of all that, Kamara. Let's hold off on the good news until later." I knew there was a problem because of the arid and detached tone in which he spoke. "Today you seem different from your usual self. Is there anything I should be aware of?" I
We had our mating ceremony there at my aunt's house and I went home with him.We got to the mansion and I marveled at the grandeur and luxury.The opulent mansion commanded attention. A sweeping driveway, lined with towering palms, leading to a magnificent entrance adorned with intricately carved doors. Marble pillars support the facade, hinting at the lavishness within.We went inside and my eyes widened at the vast foyer that boast a sparkling chandelier hanging from a domed ceiling, casting a warm glow over polished marble floors.The expansive living spaces were adorned with fine art and plush furnishings, while floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic views of sprawling gardens and shimmering pools.He tugged at my arm with a smile. I smiled back at him, knowing what was next. Mating."I wanna show you the bedroom." he said."I wanna see the bedroom." I replied.Caiden led me into his bedroom. I had my bath and changed into a form-fitting white dress that accentuated my curves. I
PRESENTLYI thought he loved me, but I was wrong. Mates were known to love each other and are unable to live without each other. Why was my case different? With a broken heart and a child growing inside of me, I ran hopelessly. I was sprinting down the path that would take me directly into the human realm.I vowed to myself that I would take care of myself and be a good mother, all the while keeping Caiden in the dark about the existence of our child.I was at a loss over what to do the next day. How do I get help, and who should I ask? The pain in my chest made me feel miserable and I was hungry.Everything in the human realm appeared to be different. I felt chilly and powerless as the light rain soaked my clothes. I sought cover under an old building structure, but she was unable to fall asleep. My inner wolf, awake and restless. I believed that humans were more cunning and dangerous than werewolves.Few days later, I was sharing space with gigantic rats. I was looking for food in
Catherine became afraid. She tried to scream, but nothing came out of her mouth. Just as she was about to run away, she felt a hand grab her by the hair and cover her nose and mouth."Where are the quads?" Catherine shook at the man's deep and rough voice.It felt like a bad dream. Though she was aware of what was going on, Catherine's emotions were out of control. How could the men have known that the house contained quadruplets? Also, why were they after the kids?"Search the entire house."Catherine's body trembled in fear of those men hurting the quads and that she would run out of breath. A tear trickled down her cheek. She could almost feel her teeth cracking from the force of his hard facial squeeze.More tears trickled down her cheek as she eventually heard the cry of the quads.Catherine began to sob more loudly. The four boys were taken out of the house, their cries muffled like those of animals. She wanted to cry out, beg them not to take the children, but all she could man
A growl rumbled in Caiden's chest, and I felt my heart beat increase as I walked towards him. Every muscle in my body tensing with every step. The Alpha got to his feet. Compared to seven years ago, Caiden had grown stronger and more attractive. He seemed more aggressive and brutal, though.I eventually overcame my fear and tried to cover up the old wounds that were still bleeding in my chest. "We need to talk, Caiden," I said.Caiden took a step forward, surprise evident on his face.“Hello, Kamara. Didn't occur to me that you're in fact still alive.” hearing his voice after so long, pronouncing my name, made me feel like I was in the past.But I didn’t want to dwell on the past. I didn't have time for that.Caiden's suspicions were heightened by the unsettling emptiness in my expression."I want to talk to you, ask your men to leave," I said, raising my voice above Caiden's."You have no right to make requests of me." Even though I was afraid by the harshness in his tone, I didn't b
