Claire's POV "This is a really nice house. I can't believe you two built it," I said. After we were done with our activities, Stephen and Steven gave me a tour of the house. It had a family room, kitchen, dining room, and bathroom on the first floor. On the second floor, there was a bathroom and four bedrooms. The master had a walk-in closet. The was a backyard with a fence around it. "I am happy you like it. We can stay here sometimes if you like," Stephen said "That sounds good," I replied "Instead of going back to school, I think it would be better for all of us to sit here and talk," Stephen said. We were outside, and there was a deck with a table and chairs. We all sat at the table and waited for him to continue."I am going to get straight to the point. I don't like that you were in the car with Gary this morning," Stephen said."Not this again. What is your problem with my dad?" Gwen asked"I don't trust him," Stephen replied"And I don't trust him either," Steven said"I
Claire's POV "Where did you go today?"Jenn asked as she got into the car." We had to take care of some Pack Business," Stephen said Sure you did. Next time you decide to skip, bring me with you," Jenn said. "I don't think you would want that. You might see something," Steven started, but I cut him off "Are you excited about your shifter party?* I asked Stacy " Yeah, it's going to be fun. I'm sorry we can't throw you one. You shifted before me, so your party should be first," Stacy said "You have no reason to be sorry. I don't mind not having a party. I want you to enjoy yourself today, Okay," I said "Okay," Stacy replied. "Where is Gwen?" Jenn asked "She has something she needs to take care of," Stephen said "There you are. Claire, do you mind helping me with the food? Boys, I need you to help your father move the tables where I want them," Tanya said Sure I can help," I said "Okay, mom," Stephen and Steven said simultaneously. They both kissed me and then went to find t
Gwen's POV "Gwen, where are you going," Claire asked as I began walking toward the woods "For a run, I will see you back at the Packhouse," I replied. I needed to get away from her before I said something I would regret."Okay," I heard Claire say before I made it through the trees. I stripped out of my clothes and shifted into my black wolf. I couldn't believe Stephen and Steven. I will not lie, my dad hasn't been the best, but he was trying. Why did Stephen and Steven want to ruin that for me? They knew how terribly I wanted my dad to be there for me, just like Sean is there for them.I hated how they tried to make it seem like I couldn't protect Claire. I would die for her. What was worse was the fact that she appeared to be on their side.I ran for about an hour and ended up at my parent's house. I retrieved a shirt and pants that I had hidden in the trees close to my parent's house and put them on. "Hey, Honey. I didn't expect to see you here. Your father and I were about to h
Claire's POV"Why is Gwen sitting all the way over there? Is she mad at you or something?" Jenn asked. I couldn't believe Gwen would act like I was nothing to her and totally ignore my existence as if I weren't even here."I don't know. Maybe to spend time with her parents," I said, not wanting Jenn to get upset. I looked at Gwen, who wouldn't even spare me a glance."I can't believe Gwen is acting so childish. I am going to say something to her," Stephen growled."Shh, please don't start anything. I don't want to ruin Stacy's day," I whispered. Stephen closed his eyes and took a deep breath before looking back at me. "Fine. I won't say anything right now, but after the party, I am going to tell her about herself," Stephen saidIt had been two hours, and Gwen still hadn't come over, looked, or said anything to me. Gwen, her mom, and her dad were talking to some members that Stephen told me were from another Pack. Stephen told me they were the Beta family of the Pack called The Claw P
Jenn's POVI couldn't believe Gwen was acting as if Claire meant nothing to her. From the moment she walked into the backyard, she had been acting like my sister wasn't even there. If I didn't know either of them, I would never have thought they had never met each other before. I could tell that Claire was feeling hurt by Gwen's actions. What pissed me off the most was when Gwen began to flirt with some guy that Stephen told us was named Jeremy. I looked at Claire, and it looked like she was about to cry.Everyone was shocked when Claire pushed Jeremy down on the floor, but I wasn't. Claire has always been a badass. I can't even remember how many females and males she fought with to defend me while we were in foster care. She doesn't take shit from anyone and always had my back. My sister had to grow up early after the death of our parents and stand up for me while we were in foster care. She has always made sure that I am alright and always puts me before herself. When I found out t
Gwen's POV"I think it is time that my family and I left. I can tell we aren't welcome here," my dad said"Sonya and Gwen are welcome here anytime," Sean said. He and my father have never gotten along, but he has always been kind to my mom and me. My mom is from Crescent Pack, while my father and his parents moved here when my father was a teenager. I never asked what Sean's problem was with my father, but I was sure it was his attitude. My father always acted as if he was better than everyone else. Sean liked to treat everyone equally, no matter what their rank was."No offense to you, but if I am not welcome, then neither are they," My dad said. He held his hand out for my mom to take, and she took it without hesitation. My mom was the only one that my father treated with respect. They stood behind each other no matter what. "Gwen, let's go," My dad said, and then he and my mom began to walk away."I am sorry," I said, looking at Sean and then at Tanya. I didn't spare Stephen and S
Gary's POV"I didn't tell Gwen to ignore Claire. All I said was that Gwen needed to let her know that it wasn't okay for Claire to treat Gwen differently than the Alphas," I said. "Don't lie to me, Gary. You know you told Gwen to ignore Claire. Now, look what happened," Sonya said "I am sorry, okay, but Claire doesn't deserve our daughter," I said, causing Sonya to gasp."Don't say that, Gary. The Moon Goddess is never wrong," Sonya said, causing me to roll my eyes, not wanting to tell her that I felt the Moon Goddess was wrong mating Gwen to Claire. Not wanting to argue anymore, I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her to me. "You are right. I am sorry," I said"I hope you mean that," Sonya said "I do," I lied and kissed the top of her head. "I am going to go apologies to Sean for what happened today," I said "I think that's a good idea," Sonya said. I kissed her softly and went to my car. I wasn't really going to see Sean. I had other plans that I knew Sonya would dis
Claire's POVAre you okay, Princess? You have barely touched your food," Stephen said. Steven, Stephen, and I sat at the dining room table eating dinner. After Gwen left"I am fine," I lied. The truth was that I couldn't stop thinking about Gwen. I hated telling her we needed to take a break from each other, but I knew it was the right thing to do. She had to understand that she couldn't treat me like I was nothing to her. "I am about to take a shower and get ready for bed," I said and went to our room. I took a shower and then brushed my teeth. I then went back into our room, turned on the tv, and lay in the bed. Stephen and Steven came into our room about an hour later. Stephen went to take a shower while Steven sat at the table in our room, looking over some files. After Stephen was done in the bathroom, Steven went in and took a shower."Do you want to talk about earlier, Princes?" Stephen asked while we were watching the news. "Not really. I don't want to talk about it right no
I wanted to thank everyone for reading Claire and Jennifer's story. Their journey is over yet. We still have to figure out who the evil man is that wants to destroy the world and why. Poppy also will discover she is related to Claire and Jennifer. How will she react to that news? I will be writing Poppy and Stacy both a story soon. If you haven't already, please check out my other books, The Alpha's Flower and The Player's Love. I will be working on another book soon. Again I would like to thank all of you, and I appreciate all of your support.
Claire's POV"Did she say anything?" I asked Stephen as I walked into the Royal Pack Jail."She said she won't speak to anyone but you and Jenn," Stephen replied. Lucien was still in the cell speaking to the witch, Angelica. I felt terrible letting her trick me into believing she was trying to do the right thing when she gave me that potion to keep Jennifer's wolf at bay. Her cousin Angela told Jenn and Lucien that Angelica is evil."I will go and speak with her," I said and entered the cell."She won't speak to anyone but you and Jennifer," Lucien said as he walked over to me."I am here now, so we can talk," I replied"I want Queen Jennifer here as well," Angelica said. I didn't want my little sister to talk to Angelica because I wanted to protect her from what she had to say. I was sure whatever she had to say wasn't good. But I knew I had to let Jenn hear what she had to say. Jenn would be mad at me for treating her like a child if I didn't.I knew Lucien didn't want Jennifer to s
Jennifer's POV (One Week Later)"Are you ready to go, Little One?" Lucien asked as he walked into our bathroom. I hadn't been feeling well, but Lucien and I were going to a meeting with all the Alphas and Lunas to discuss any problems the other Packs might be having. This would be my first time going, and I was the Werewolf Queen now, and that made me nervous. "Yes, I am ready," I said after checking my hair. I had on a blue sundress with black flats. I let my hair, which had been growing, hang straight down my back. "You look beautiful, My Queen. I want to skip this meeting and tear that sexy dress off your body and stay in bed," Lucien said as he wrapped his arms around me and kissed my neck where his mark lay. I couldn't help the moan that came out of my mouth from him kissing the mark. He knew he was turning me on."You know we can't stay home tonight, so stop teasing me," I said, and he bit lightly on my neck, causing me to moan again, and he began to smirk. "Stop it, Lucien,"
Richard's POV1"I can't believe that son of a bitch. How dare he kicks us out of the Castle. We should be the one's staying here, not him," I growled when we arrived at our room. I picked up the lamp that was sitting on the coffee table and threw it into the wall, causing it to shatter."Calm down, Richard. Everything is going to be alright," My mate Cheryl said."How do you expect me to calm down? That boy has taken everything from me. My home and my brother," I replied"I know you are upset, but you have to stay calm," Cheryl said as she wrapped her arms around me, hugging me close. I returned her hug and inhaled her sweet scent, which helped me calm down."I shouldn't have said anything about that, Lycan. I knew he was close to King Lucien, and I should have kept my mouth shut," Cheryl said. I could feel through our bond how she felt responsible for us getting kicked out of the Royal Pack."You have nothing to be sorry for. Everything you said was true. That mix breed's father rape
Jennifer's POV"You look beautiful, Little One. You ready to go?" Lucien asked. It had been two days since he had told his mom that his father's side wanted to talk to him and hopefully have a relationship with him. I was a little worried that maybe they weren't being sincere about why they wanted to speak to him. They could have reached out to Luciens years ago but only decided to once they found out Lucien met me, His Mate and the now Queen. I hoped I was being paranoid, but deep inside. I knew I wasn't"Yes, I am ready," I replied. Lucien took my hand, and we walked off our floor. We were meeting Lucien's Uncle and his Mate and kids at an Italian Restaurant on Human Territory. They had arrived last night and stayed at a hotel. Lucien wasn't comfortable with them coming to the Castle until we talked. Debra was waiting outside for us with Anthony. I knew Anthony wasn't comfortable with coming with us because he didn't have a good relationship with his mom or anyone else in the fami
Jenn's POV"I am so happy you two are back. I have missed you," Debra said as Lucien, and I entered the Castle. We had decided to come home that night because Lucien wanted to talk to her about his uncle and how he wanted to have a relationship with him. Lucien wanted to know how his Mom felt about that."We missed you too, Mom. Jennifer and I are going to head to our floor to rest, but I would like for us to have dinner in the morning. We can go to that Pancake house you like," Lucien said"That sounds good, Son. I will see you tomorrow," Debra said, and Lucien and I headed to our room. Lucien changed into some shorts, and I wore his shirt to bed. I could feel through our bond that Lucien was worried about how his Mom would feel once he talked to her about his uncle."Everything is going to be okay," I said, wrapping my arms around him as we sat on our bed. "I am worried my Mom will feel hurt that I am even considering getting to know my father's side. They were terrible to her even
Jenn's POV"Do we have to go home tomorrow?" I asked Lucien as we walked back into the house we had been staying in for the past three days. The last three days had been the most wonderful and pleasurable days of my life. I never thought I could be as happy as I was now that Lucien and I were fully mated. "Yes, Little One, we have to go home," Lucien replied as we sat on the couch in the living room."I don't want to go home yet. We should stay here until next week," I pouted, and he laughed and kissed my lips softly."I wish we could, but we have to get back to the Castle. We are the King and Queen, after all," Lucien said, and I sighed."Yeah, you are right," I replied"But I promise we will come back here soon," Lucien said"Okay," I replied. "How about we go on a walk by the river," Lucien said"That sounds nice," I replied. Then, suddenly, Lucien's phone rang, and he took it off the table. "I wonder who this is," Lucien said and answered the phone with a hello. "Why do you w
Jennifer's POVI woke up on top of Lucien. I looked out the window to see the sun was beginning to rise. I felt sparks going through my body and noticed his cock was still buried inside of me. He was hard and ready, and my core was throbbing with need. Suddenly, Lucien and I had switched positions, shocking me. I was now below him while he was hovering over my body. Lucien's cock was still inside me."I can feel your emotions and know what you want from me, Jennifer. I know you want me to make you cum," Lucien said, then he licked the spot where his Mark now lay on my neck, causing me to moan his name. "All you have to do is tell me what you want, and I will make your dreams come true. So, tell me, what do you want, my Queen?" Lucien asked"I want you to move inside of me and make me cum," I moaned, and he smirked."Your wish is my command, Sweetheart," Lucien said before thrusting inside me. "Is this what you want, Little One?" Lucien asked as he hit my G-spot over and over again,
Jennifer's POVLucien lined himself with my entrance and kissed my lips quickly. "I love you," Lucien said before entering me. He started slow, moving inside of me until he hit a barrier. I knew he had hit my hymen. Lucien connected his lips with mine and kissed me softly as he thrust his cock in me, breaking my hymen. I closed my eyes because of how painful it was. I could feel tears escape my eyes as he pushed his cock inside me until he was entirely inside. Once his cock was completely inside of me, he stilled his movements so that I could adjust to his size. Lucien wiped my tears away and whispered sweet nothings in my ear. The pain didn't last long, and I was starting to feel a pleasurable sensation in my core."You can move now," I said, moving my hip, needing to feel some friction. Lucien started moving slowly but steadily in and out of me. My legs were around his waist, and my hands were in his hair as we kissed passionately. The pleasure was becoming more, and soon the pain
