“Does anyone have anything else they’d like to add?” Adam stands and folds his hands in front of him, looking at the other committee members expectantly.

I looked at each person for a moment, trying to gauge if any of them still had a problem with me. When I had first walked in, their gazes had all been judgy and cautious. Now most of them are shrugging or nodding, seeming to be satisfied with my answers. They lo0ked at me with more understanding, and I was cocky enough to think maybe I had actually convinced them.

But of course, when I finally land back on Sebastain’s mother, Serena, she has some evil grin on her face like she was waiting for this exact moment to pull some nasty trick out of her sleeve.

Sure enough. “I just had… one more tiny thing to add.” She says, her thick, glossed lips curling into a smile as she stares me down.

I glare a little, taking a deep breath to try and prepare myself for whatever she was about to do. There was no way whatever she was about to say wou

    “It’s decided then. In a month, we will reconvene and see who our Sebastain has chosen to rule his pack with him.” Serena smiles as she turns to look at everyone with a warm expression. Except me. I got the same nasty look she’d been shooting me since she walked in the room. The committee members all nod, and I shrug a little. Camilla has her gaze fixed on Sebastian, who has the decency to at least look uncomfortable. My eyes run over the girl again. She looks a lot younger than me, and probably prettier. Her skin is soft looking, and her figure is carved and pleasantly curvy. If I wasn’t thinking about how much I wanted to push this woman into a deep dark hole, I might be jealous of her.“Good. I’d say we’re done here for now, then. May the best woman win.” I scoff and roll my eyes and Serea’s pretend amicable statement, and stand up and walk towards the exit as everyone else starts slowly standing up and the committee members talking amongst themselves like they hadn’t already been

    I step outside my bedroom the next day, anticipation heavy in my heart and a permanent smile on my face. I was going to get to see my kids today. I looked up and down the hallway for signs of life, my eyes lingering on the door I knew belonged to Sebastain. Last night we had dinner together, and I can’t lie, I kind of enjoyed myself. We just talked. He told me a little bit about his mom, and what it was like being raised by a woman like that. He told me she has always had incredibly high expectations for him, her only son, to be the absolute greatest. I guess it kind of did him good though, because now he was the Alpha of literally the strongest pack in the nation. Knowing that, I could see how much she bothered him when he spoke of her. His shoulders tensed up and his fists clenched, and his face morphed into one of an immature child with no emotional outlet. It was definitely a more vulnerable side of Sebastain that I hadn’t yet encountered. I bite my lip a little and slowly

    “Tell me what I’ve missed.” I say to Lucas as I tear up a pancake for Eli, who was sitting on my lap. We had moved to the kitchen of Sebastain’s house, where one of the servants had breakfast already prepared for us. Sebastian had said he had some work to do, and had gone upstairs to his office, leaving Lucas and I alone with the twins in the kitchen. I was a little surprised he was leaving us alone, to be honest, but I didn’t want to question it and make him change his mind, so I kept quiet. “Uh. Well.” He scratches the back of his neck and pushes away the food he was given. I can tell being here makes him uncomfortable, and it’s clear he doesn’t trust Sebastain’s people enough to eat the food they cooked him. Which was fine, but I was proof that being poisoned was a very real possibility in this pack. “Here baby.” I whisper to Eli as I offer him a piece. “Killian has been… in a mood. Since he came back without you.” Lucas admits. I look up from Eli to look at him. “He’s been st

    The next day I slept in late, mostly because I knew Sebastain had his lunch date with Camilla today, and I didn’t want to run the risk of running into either of them; or worse, both of them together. I just knew it would annoy me, knowing I was in this weird dating game with them. I didn’t like being used like some kind of puppet.We’re still playing the denial game, I see. “Yup.” I mutter to my wolf as I get an outfit together for the day. I planned on walking around the pack grounds a little. I had done plenty of work with tons of different pack members during my first two years here, but I haven’t even interacted with any of them in… weeks now. Since I started feeling the effects of the poison Sebastain and his mistress had been slipping me. There had been a couple passing interactions, but nothing like the hands on work I was used to always having done in whatever pack I was helping lead. I wanted to make sure the maternity ward I’d help build was doing okay, as well as check in

    “I’m glad everything is running smoothly.” I say with a smile to Crystal as we watched a nurse burping a newborn. “I hope that doesn’t mean you won’t come around anymore. If I need to lie and tell you things are awful I will.” She says, looking up at me with a worried expression. I laugh a little. “I’ll come back-”“Right this way Alpha. It's an honor to have you visit us today.” I stiffen and let out a deep sigh when I hear a nurse calling someone Alpha, and footsteps coming towards us. “We keep the newborns here for monitoring, and to let the mothers get a little rest after giving birth. Would you like to meet a few of them?” I hear the nurse telling who I assume to be Sebastain and most likely Camilla as she leads them closer and closer to where we still stand watching the babies. Why the hell did he have to bring her here? I bet he knew the first thing I’d want to do was check on my projects. He probably brought her here on purpose, to rub it in my face. I can feel Crystal look

    I grab a glass out of the cabinet in Sebastain’s kitchen and set it on the counter. I move to the fridge where I know I'd seen a chilled bottle of vodka. It was already ten pm, and Sebastain wasn’t back from his time with Camilla yet. God, why the hell did that irritate me so much? I shake my head at myself as I fill the cup halfway with cranberry juice before topping it off with vodka. I scoff and drink the whole thing in one go, wincing a little at the burn of vodka in the back of my throat. Seems like you definitely care a little. “Shut up.” I mutter at my wolf as I pour myself another drink. My entire body tenses up when I hear the front door opening. I listened, my hand clenched tightly around the glass. I hear Camilla telling Sebastain something quietly, too quiet for me to hear. Sebastian says something back, and then I hear heels clicking up the stairs to the bedrooms. My eyes dart up to glare at Sebastian as he comes into the kitchen, stopping his tracks when he sees

    “I don’t know why the hell you’re crying.” I run my hand through my hair, frustrated as ever but trying to keep my tone in check. Eli and Ella were both standing up in their cribs, big alligator tears leaking from their eyes and they screamed for something. They did okay during the day when they were playing and interacting with people, but at night they had been whiney every night since we’d gotten home. “Mama!” Eli demands, his tiny face angry and sad looking. I sigh, and shake my head. I had said I didn’t know why they were crying, but it seemed tonight was no different than every other night. They wanted their mother. “She’s not here.” I say, stepping forward to pick him up and hold him against me. He calms down a little, but Ella gets jealous and starts screaming louder. I picked her up too, holding one against each shoulder as they sniffed and slowly started calming down a little. I hold them tightly against me, my hand supporting each one under the butt as they lay their head

    Lucas and I end up talking for a few hours, and decide on a few things. We’re selling the remainder of the packs businesses, and we’ll compile all the money and reinvest in something low risk and hopefully profitable. We’ll lay low on that front for a while, shift to hunting for as much of our food as we can to cut costs, while we stack some money again. After a while we’ll go back to reinvesting in other businesses for even more cash flow. We’re going to go and personally talk to the pack members that left under May’s supervision, and see what I can do to try and convince them to come back. I know it’s probably going to take more than an apology, but I was willing to put in the work if they would let me. The rogue problem had settled down a little, killing them on site seemed to have the desired effect. But there were still a few encounters here and there, including one this morning with some young wolves playing too close to the border. The kids were fine, because Lucas had been

    “Killian?! Wake up!” I’m hovering over Killian now, gently holding either side of his face. There’s blood all over, his nose is definitely broken, and his eyes are swollen shut. Serena still hasn’t shut up about what a monster I am in the background, even though Sebastain had already been dragged off by a couple of his pack members. I wish she would’ve gone with him, because she was only adding to the chaos. A couple committee members were holding her back by the arms as she yelled at me what a manipulative piece of shit I was, and that if her son died, I was the reason. Adam was one of the guys holding her, and I could tell by the look on his face, he had no idea what to do right now.“Please.” I lean down to Killian’s ear, kissing it softly. My heart races in my chest when I hear him groan, and his head rolls to the side a little. That was proof, he was alive, and that’s all I needed right now.“Luna, we must help him.” I look up to the voice talking to me, my eyes wide and franti

    “Ladies and Gentlemen!” I blink a little, trying to pull myself out of the whirlwind of thoughts going on inside my mind right now as Serena starts speaking to the gathered packs. “Today, we are witnessing the challenge of two Alphas-”I hear a voice clearing, and look up to Felix, who is standing in between Killian and Sebastain. Serena sighs, and rolls her eyes. “Two Alphas and a… him.” She waves her hand dismissively at Felix, but he just grins that evil smile of his and waves at the crowd. “For the right to rule over all attending packs.” I notice she left out the real reason this challenge was even happening, to see who would have me as their Luna. She was one of the ones I’d heard him talking shit about me to, so I don’t know why she even cared. She already knew how he really felt, right? I look up then at Sebastian, who is already looking at me. His dark gaze stares into mine, and I swallow thickly. He’s mouthing something at me, something I can’t quite make out. I tilt my h

    “You’ll be over here, so you can see.” I nod at the pack member who led me through the crowd of buzzing people, all gathered to watch the challenge ceremony that was set to start in thirty minutes. All the normal pack members were standing in a loose circle in the middle of Sebastain’s pack lands, while myself, Camilla, and the committee members sat at the front in chairs they’d placed for us. Camilla and I were the only ones actually sitting, side by side now. The rest of the committee members were standing off to the side a little, talking amongst themselves.“How was your night?” I ask her as we both watch the pack members interacting, all of them excited for the fast approaching fight. I could practically feel the energy buzzing in the air. I glance at her, and notice her chewing on her lip a little, instead of grinning ear to ear like I thought she would be.“What’s wrong? What happened?” I ask. I had been expecting her to immediately start gushing about hooking up with Lucas,

    I walk back to Sebastain’s place, my arms crossed and my mind whirring with thoughts of what I had just done. I definitely should not have just hooked up with Killian. But it’s like I couldn’t help myself. Hearing Sebastain call me simple, laugh at me with his mom and dumb committee members like I was some immature little girl, it just made me so mad. I wanted to get back at him, and even though I didn’t plan on running to him and rubbing it in his face, I still felt a weird sense of satisfaction from what I’d just done. I walk in the front door, heading upstairs to my room, rather than heading back to the party still going on in the backyard. I hadn’t really been in the party mood before, and I definitely wasn't now. I sigh, and walk to my bed, collapsing onto it with a heavy sigh. These past couple days have been draining as hell. My body and my mind are tired of working overtime, and I can feel it really sinking in as I lay there in the quiet dark of my room.I wish everything

    Nothing had ever felt as right as holding Everly in my arms at that moment. Feeling her hot breath on my neck as I grinded my length into her, her fingers clutching at my shoulders as she gasped and moaned my name. I hadn’t gotten to be with her like this in way too long, and while it hadn’t been the thing I missed the most about her, I can't lie and say I didn’t crave this a little. “Fuck I missed you.” I groan into her ear as I grab her tightly under the ass, her back hitting the tree I had her pinned against with every thrust inside of her. “You smell so good…” I mutter as I bury my face in her collarbone and kiss her warm, soft skin. My mind was blank, thinking only of how good it felt to be buried inside her again, her wetness leaking out onto me with every motion. I could feel her thighs clenching, the heat of her body radiating off her. Why did I ever give this up? Why did I ever think May was better than her? “Killian… I’m going to…” she gasps, her grip on me tightening eve

    I walked quickly through the pack grounds, towards where I knew Sebastain and the other committee members were probably drinking whiskey worth more than my left kidney. No way they would be caught drinking cans of seltzer with lowly common pack members. Sure enough, the lights were on in the guest house Adam was staying in, and laughter was spilling out of the slightly cracked windows. I guess since Adam was the head of the committee, they always came to his house. I walk onto the porch about to enter, but stop with my hand on the knob when I hear Serena saying my name. “There’s no way Everly has it in her to run a pack of this size efficiently. I don’t know why you keep entertaining this.” She says in a snotty tone. I can feel irritation rising in my chest, but think to myself, Sebastian will stand up for me. He won’t let his mother talk about me like that when I’m not even in the room to defend myself. “Just because she’s a little simple doesn’t mean she won’t do a fine job.” I

    As it turned out, the packs were actually pretty good at getting along. I suspect it had something to do with the ridiculous amount of alcohol that was being consumed by every single person here tonight.Both Killian and Sebastain had brought home giant sized deer for us to cook that night, so we ended up making a bonfire thirty or so feet away from Sebastain’s house. The deer had been skinned and sliced, and now you could grab a piece, a skewer, and roast your meat over the fire. When everyone had first shown up, things had been very tense. It was kind of like a middle school prom, where the boys sit on one side and the girls sit on the other. Except the split was between the two groups of wolves. Ashton had actually been the one to break the tension a little, and I had a mental note to send him a bottle of whiskey or something after, because without him, I’m not sure what would’ve happened. Him and his group of ducklings had shown up a bit later than everyone else, but only beca

    That night, we decide to have a party with both Sebastian and Killians pack. I had gone over to the house the committee members were staying in with Sebastain to discuss Felix’s challenge. They were are understandably shocked, and a little confused as to why Sebastain even accepted the challenge. They talked for way too long about it, but in the end, Sebastian said he couldn’t back out now even if he wanted to. The challenge had been laid out, and he had accepted of his own free will. The only way out was submission or victory. I again found myself worrying about who Felix really was as the committee members expressed their concern over Sebastain fighting him. Where did this guy come from? Why did he get kicked out his pack? Why did Serena and all the other committee members seem so apprehensive about Sebastain going up against him? What did they know that I didn’t? Lucas and Camilla had been the ones to suggest it (wonder why) and at first I’d been kind of against it. It had seemed

    “We’ll need to move the ceremony outside, with the rogues joining in now there won’t be enough room outside.” I tell one of Sebastain’s pack members as I walk to the meeting hall with them at my side. They nod, and break away from me to hurry off with their new instructions. I don’t know how his pack had learned about the new challenger so quickly, considering it'd happened all of an hour ago. But as soon as I’d walked out of Sebastain’s house, the guards had immediately approached me, asking if it was true that Sebastain had been challenged by the rogue King. Then when I had started walking to the meeting hall to see if any of the committee members were lingering around, one of the event organizing pack members had approached, asking if the space we had planned to use for the ceremony would still work. They were who I was talking and walking with now.I hadn’t been able to find Sebastain again, I’m assuming he’d probably turned into a wolf and was tearing through his land somewhere,
