Logan stood outside Andrea’s room, his hand poised to knock. He hesitated, running a hand through his hair, the frustration of the day still gnawing at him. The search for the rogues had been a disaster, and now he had to face the firestorm that was Andrea. Taking a deep breath, he unlocked the door and stepped inside, bracing himself for the inevitable confrontation. Andrea was sitting on the bed, glaring at him the moment he entered. "What do you want now, Logan? Come to throw your weight around some more?" Logan closed the door, his expression hard. "I came to talk." "Talk?" Andrea scoffed, standing up. "You don’t talk. You give orders and expect everyone to fall in line. Well, guess what? I’m not part of your pack." Logan’s eyes darkened. "You don’t understand the danger you put yourself in. You can’t just leave the pack grounds without permission." "Permission?" Andrea’s voice rose. "I’m not your child, Logan. You kidnapped me, remember? You don’t get to dictate my lif
Andrea stood at the edge of the meeting hall, her heart pounding as the pack members gathered around. She had been summoned along with everyone else, but no one knew the reason for the urgent meeting. Logan, their Alpha, stood at the front, his expression stern and unyielding.She felt a nudge at her side and turned to see Rose, her friend and confidante. "Any idea what this is about?" Andrea whispered.Rose shook her head. "No clue, but it must be important if he's called the entire pack together."Andrea’s anxiety grew as she scanned the crowd. She could see the curiosity and apprehension on their faces. She caught sight of Sandra and her minions, who were huddled together, whispering and casting occasional glances in her direction.Logan raised his hand, silencing the murmurs that filled the hall. "Thank you all for coming on such short notice," he began, his voice strong and commanding. "I have an important announcement to make."Andrea’s stomach tightened. She had no idea what Lo
Andrea stood in front of the mirror, her heart pounding with a mix of anticipation and dread. The room was bustling with activity. Makeup artists, hair stylists, and designers flitted around her, each focused on their task. Rose stood beside her, a reassuring presence amidst the chaos."Hold still," one of the makeup artists said, applying the final touches to Andrea's face. "Almost done."Andrea tried to calm her racing thoughts. Today was the day she would officially be appointed as Luna, a role she had never asked for and certainly never imagined for herself. She caught Rose’s reflection in the mirror and offered a weak smile.Rose grinned back. "You look amazing, Andrea. Absolutely stunning."Andrea glanced down at the intricate dress she wore. It was a deep emerald green that complemented her eyes, the fabric flowing like liquid silk. The bodice was fitted, adorned with delicate beadwork that shimmered in the light. Her hair had been styled into loose waves, cascading down her ba
PAST Two days before the Luna ceremony, tensions simmered within the pack's council chambers. Logan's uncle, a seasoned alpha with a stern demeanor, sat at the head of the table, his brow furrowed deeply as he listened to the murmurs of disapproval from the council members."This is unprecedented, Logan," his uncle said with a heavy sigh, his voice carrying the weight of authority and concern. "A human Luna? Have you lost your senses?"Logan stood tall, his expression stoic despite the mounting pressure. "She is my mate," he replied firmly, meeting his uncle's gaze head-on. "I did not choose this, but fate has bound us." The council members exchanged uneasy glances, their skepticism evident. One elder spoke up, his voice laced with skepticism. "It goes against everything we've known. How can we trust a human to lead us?"Logan's jaw clenched, his patience wearing thin. "Andrea has proven herself," he retorted, his voice steely. "She possesses strength and determination that surpasse
As Andrea followed Logan through the quiet corridors towards his house, her mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. She had barely processed the announcement that she would be moving from her bedroom to his bedroom, let alone the fact that all her belongings had already been relocated without her consent. Her exhaustion from the day's events weighed heavily on her, leaving little room for protest or questions.Logan's strides were purposeful, his jaw set in a firm line that betrayed none of the inner turmoil she suspected lay beneath. Andrea stole glances at him, trying to decipher his unreadable expression, but his focus remained forward, determined and unwavering.They walked towards his room Andrea realised that she had never been in this part of the house and couldn't help but marvel at the difference compared to the other part of the house, it looked vacant that no one actually lives this side no person in site, as they walked down a corridor lined with portraits of past al
As Andrea stirred from her sleep, she was instantly alert, sensing a presence in the room. Her heart raced as she turned to see Logan standing near her bed, his eyes a striking shade of amber that she hadn't seen before. The air around him crackled with a raw intensity that sent a shiver down her spine."Andrea," Logan's voice was low and husky, filled with a hunger that both thrilled and terrified her. "You have no idea how long I've waited for you."From that statement alone she knew it was Alex in charge.Andrea's breath caught in her throat as he moved closer, his gaze locked on hers with an intensity that made her pulse quicken. He reached out, his fingers brushing lightly against her cheek, trailing down to caress her lips. She was frozen in place, caught between fear and an inexplicable longing that surged through her."You drive me crazy," he murmured, his voice rough with desire. "I want you in ways you can't even imagine."His touch was electric, sending tingles across her s
Logan paced the dimly lit corridor outside Andrea's room, his mind a tempest of conflicting emotions. The encounter had left him shaken, his usual composure unraveling in the face of her understanding gaze and gentle touch. He clenched his fists, struggling to regain control.As he walked, the echoes of the pack settling into sleep surrounded him, a comforting reminder of his responsibilities. Yet, tonight, those responsibilities felt like chains binding him to a fate he couldn't escape.The commotion that had stirred him from his restless pacing originated from the far end of the hallway—a muffled argument between two men, their voices strained with urgency. Logan hesitated, torn between investigating and retreating to the solitude of his own thoughts.But duty called, and he moved towards the source of the disturbance. As he approached, the voices grew louder, snippets of conversation floating to him through the thick silence of the night."... should have told her...""...not his
Sandra paced her opulent room, the plush carpet muffling her agitated footsteps. The moonlight filtered through the heavy curtains, casting an eerie glow on her surroundings. She clutched her phone, waiting impatiently for the call she had placed to connect. Finally, a deep, gravelly voice answered, breaking the silence."What is it, Sandra?" the voice growled, laced with impatience and anger.Sandra's lips curled into a sneer. "It's Andrea," she spat, unable to mask the venom in her tone. "That pathetic human is ruining everything. She was never supposed to be Luna. That position was meant for me."There was a pause on the other end of the line, and Sandra could almost feel the tension crackling through the phone. "You assured me you had everything under control," the voice hissed. "How did she end up being chosen?"Sandra's grip tightened around her phone. "I did have everything under control until she showed up. Logan was supposed to reject her, but for some reason, he’s keeping he
