Maddox’s POV I woke up staring into the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen. “Have you been up long?” I asked her. “Long enough to know you snore,” she says, laughing. “Well, I stayed up long enough last night to know that you talk in your sleep. You won’t be keeping any secrets from me in the future.” that shuts her up and I laugh. We roll around the bed for a while, kissing and cuddling for a while. I can’t wait to get her home and into our bed, especially for some privacy. I know we have mated and marked one another. But our relationship has felt rushed. I want to savor every part of her body. I want to discover what makes her giggle, what causes her to squeal, what causes her delight and, most essentially, how I can make my little mate content when it’s just us. I'm eager to learn all I can. But that is later. I need to get her home for me to learn any of that. We had a friendly and pleasant breakfast with Alpha Dalton and her grandma. They don’t seem li
Lottie’s POV Wow, Spring Valley Pack is beautiful. I can’t get enough of the scenery as we drive in. It’s picturesque. I could never get bored with that sight. The hills, the trees and the place is so clean, they obviously looked after it. Not like the human town where I am from. No one seems to care about anything. I also looked at the man beside me. He is nice to look at too. I can’t believe how lucky I am. But all of that is thrown in my face when a beautiful woman has her arms wrapped around him. She looks like she is kissing his neck. The neck I have marked. Looking at how she is holding onto him, they are close. That lying arsehole, he told me he loved me; he told me I was his first. I gave him my virginity. What was I, the first this month? I can feel the anger boiling inside of me. He deceived me. He is on his knees before me, and I can only give him a scornful look. He has broken my trust. “I will explain everything once we are inside,” he says with a gui
Maddox’s POV That went as well as I could have expected it to. Xavier has healed the burn marks on my hand. Lottie appears to understand about me and Lily and the secrets we hid. But Lottie still looks annoyed. I look around the room and I think I know what is going through her mind. Lily’s stuff is everywhere. “Let’s get you packed, Lily.” I told her. “Definitely, I don’t want to be invading my Luna’s space.” She says, smiling at Lottie. She is showing Lottie that she respects her as a Luna. I have known Lily forever and I know how happy she is for me right now. Just like she knows how happy I will be for her when the time is right. Me and Lily still need to finish our public break up. However, this should be fun. Lily can be dramatic, to say the least. “How do you have so much stuff here?” I asked her as we were packing her belongings. “8 months, Maddox, 8 months of being trapped here with you. You’re lucky I don’t have more stuff.” She says, insulting me like it
Lottie’s POV Ember blocked me out as soon as she took over our body, last night. She must have had a great time, seen as my body is throbbing. Everywhere just seems to ache. What was she doing? Then again, do I really want to know? What I do know is that I am lying on the ground naked when I wake up next to Maddox. Who is also naked. When I start to move, he wakes up. “How are you feeling?” I ask him as he sits up. “Well Xavier, is exhausted. I doubt he will give me any trouble today. He has told me that he has met his match with Ember.” “I don’t know what to say to that. All I know is she is feeling satisfied, or that is the feeling she is giving me anyway.” We both laugh. Maddox helps me stand up as I seem to struggle. Today is supposed to be about me and Maddox, but I am not sure my body will cope. Ember has worn it out. “I finally got the night with my mate that I wanted,” she says. I am pleased for her, but also annoyed as i am so tired. There's a chance I won't get
Maddox’s POV I have never had anyone do that for me. I know there is room for improvement. But her touching me sent me into sensory overload. She made my body explode. I didn’t even mind cleaning my mess up after myself. Jeez, she blows my mind. I walk out of the bathroom. She is giggling at me. I could never tire of hearing that sound. Everything about her is perfect. Mate bond or not, I love her. I must find her an outfit, since she is wrapped in a towel and has nothing in our bedroom. I can’t have men looking at my mate. Both me and Xavier would have a fit. The top floor of the pack house is the Alpha’s suite. Parker lives up here with me. I guess Caren will as well if she wants. We can decide tomorrow whether Caren will live up here with us. I mind link Dwayne telling him to arrange for Lottie’s belongings to be brought up to our suite so she can start making this place our home. I have very few items I actually value, so she can put whatever she wants anywhere
Caren’s POV Parker’s SUV pulls up outside of a large house, like the size of a hotel. I practically bounced out of the vehicle when I saw Lottie running down the steps. I missed her. “Took your time getting here, didn’t you?” She says to Parker. I don’t care, though I just want to enjoy my hug. “You will never believe what happened.” I told Lottie she really will never believe it. I can barely believe it. “Wait until I tell you what is happening here, you will never believe it.” She had a seriously unimpressed look on her face. I’ll let her go first. Get the bad news out of the way first and end on a high. “After we left Mountain Creek Pack, we went to Silver Mountain Pack. I met my uncle and grandma.” She didn’t look impressed, from the sounds of it. Her uncle sounded creepy and untrustworthy. The Wolf Council guy needs a good smack. Her grandma sounds okay, though. She told me about Lily when she arrived. I was fuming with Maddox. But then I calm down when she explains to
Caren’s POV High school was the place of my nightmares. I really despised having to truly hide who I am, as well as being judged on the false persona I had created. I joined every group I could in the human world, trying to fit in, but at least I fit in. Lottie stood out, even though she hid in the background. Her bullies always found her. They tormented the crap out of her for years. But she had me there, in case she ever ‘lost it’. I was there to protect the humans from Lottie, but those idiots only ever saw it the other way around. Lottie could have easily snapped them like twigs. She was so much stronger than them. Our mantra ‘their only human’ probably saved their lives too many times. We both decided that our new mantra was ‘their only wolves’. They don’t know about our gifts or that Deana is a gifted wolf, making her unique. I don’t even know what makes her unique. She promises one day to tell me. Here in this wolf high school, we are the weaker humans, seeing a
Maddox’s POV “Are you sure about this, Dwayne?” I asked my best friend. “She is my future and if this makes her happy, this is what we will do. I don’t think I am getting too bad of a deal, to be honest.” After seeing how upset Sophie was in those toilets. She was fully prepared to reject him, but Lily managed to sway her and come up with a solution to their situation. I just hope they will all be happy with the compromise. I know Dwayne has always had a crush on Lily. He was gutted when she refused to date him when they were younger. It devastated him at the time, but he eventually understood why she had refused to date him. Especially when she told him about her love for a particular young woman. When we entered our fake relationship, Dwayne’s help was essential. He has always been a great friend and covered for us frequently. Now though. Things have changed and he is more than happy with the romantic situation. He has a few reservations but overall happy. He
