Romeo POV
I tried to reach out to Stella after the whole rogue ordeal was over, but she dismissed and called me Alpha. She has never addressed me formally, and it really hurts the way she is ignoring me. I couldn't help but let out a low growl, when Corey asked her if she was alright, and she just held him in a tight embrace. I know he is gay, I know he is just like a big brother to her, but my Alpha posesiveness and jealousy beat me to it.
She managed to leave one rogue unconscious, so Nate commanded Jack and Elliot to take him to the dungeons for questioning. As soon as the rest of the team scattered Nate came up to me “That was intense, bro…” He said, patting my back.
“Yes, she is really upset with me. I think I lost her forever…” I said defeated, placing my face in my hands.
A loud gasp sounded at the door. “What the hell happened Nate?” Rose's voice sounded in the hallway.

Romeo POVRose was resourceful. She asked me to plan something special for Stella. She suggested several things and made a list of her friends' favorite romantic musts.It was like working with a secret intel agency. She knew Stella's favorite music, her favorite love song, her favorite food… she also knew what would be Stella's ideal date setting… Yeah, a secret Intel agency, for sure.Nate and Rose helped me set everything up. I saw a little hope at the end of the road. Having Rose rooting for us was a big encouragement. Because having to deal with Stella was one thing, but dealing with Stella and Rose together was a different one.CrescentMoon has a little clearing with a lake and a waterfall. Surrounded by big trees, it was perfect for a picnic date. It was secluded enough to have privacy and it was quiet enough to have a heart-to-heart conversation.Rose had Luna Martha help with the food. She said it was for a date with Nate. She is covering all my tracks, and for that, I am than
Chapter 30 - Date by the LakeRomeo POVEverything was ready, and I had no idea how I was going to thank Rose, because Stella agreed to come to dinner with me. I will be forever indebted to her and Nate.Suddenly, Max was alerted, and we smelled her Strawberry Cheesecake scent. She was nearby, and I couldn't help but be anxious about that. This is the first time I have done something like this for someone. Usually, girls throw themselves at me, so I never had the need to court someone before, not even Paige.Her soft footsteps sounded against the forest ground, my heart was pounding, and soon my eyes locked with hers. Wow, she is a vision. The dress Luna Martha sent looks beautiful on her. I had to take a deep breath in order to control myself.She smiled at me and her soft voice quickly said “Thanks for the invitation, Alpha…” I took one of her hands in mine and with my other hand I caressed her cheek, “Please call me Romeo…” She gulped and nodded.I walked towards the picnic setting.
Romeo POVI saw her silhouette heading towards the lake. I was hypnotized by her sensual walking, which I am sure she is not doing on purpose. I just find everything she does sexy as fuck. Then I saw her hands reach the back of her dress, and suddenly, I noticed the fabric drop on the floor. I had to blink twice to break away from my trance and realize that she had jumped into the water in her underwear.I quickly stripped down, only keeping my boxers and jumped in the water, following her. Max was pushing me to mate with her, and I had to control him with all my willpower. She was floating in the middle of the lake, and I swam towards her. I wrapped my arms around her narrow and firm waist. I pulled her against my chest, her breast pressed against my chest, my hands roaming her back and my dick pounding inside my boxers. I locked eyes with her and whispered in her ear “ I love you, Stella…”Soon my lips crashed on hers. The kiss was urgent and passionate. The skin-to-skin contact sent
Paige POVI went to visit Coral, my witch friend. She was distressed because she had a vision of me losing Romeo. You see, she wants to rule the world and to do so, she needs me as Luna of the Royal Pack.I, on the other hand, need her to become Luna, and then I plan to dispose of her. Once I have achieved my goal, but in the meantime, I need to play along."Hey, Coral.. What is going on?" I asked as soon as I entered her shop. "Well sweetie, yesterday I had a dream and I saw how Romeo is strengthening his bond with Stella, and she is gaining her powers… Haven't you felt it?" She asked, and then I reflected on the tiredness and weakness I have been feeling the last couple of days."Yeah. Now that you mention it… I have been feeling quite tired…" I said with concern. "She is breaking the spell… If you don't intervene, she and Romeo will be together soon… and everythi
Stella POVI woke up tangled in two strong arms. As soon as I moved, his beautiful blue eyes snapped open, and a shy smile showed on his sexy lips. “Good Morning, Beautiful,” he said in his husky morning voice. My body lit up on fire just hearing his sexy voice, his scent clouding my senses.I smiled at him and replied, “Good Morning, My Alpha…” He raised his head to kiss my forehead.“I love it when you call me that, Sweetheart.” He tightened his grip on my body, but I needed to go to the bathroom and freshen up. I could almost guarantee that my hair was a mess.“Romeo, Could you please let me go?” I asked him, and he snuggled more.“Not can't do, sweetheart… I just had the best night ever, and I need more time with you like this.” He whispered in my ear, sending shivers all over my body, and then he conti
Romeo POVAfter breakfast, I went to the dungeons with Alpha Leo. Nate and the team started getting all the reports of the attack, and we started analyzing the data, to see if this was the attack we had expected on this pack. After all, the previous attacks were full front attacks and this one seemed like an unplanned rogue attack.The stench of the dungeons, a mixed blend of blood, dirty, feces, and rotten, invaded my nose in an instant. I usually hated interrogations, but I was desperate to know why they targeted Stella. CrescentMoon´s Beta was there warming up and preparing our prisoner for the interrogation.I quietly sat on a chair across from the beaten-up rogue, and pushing my Alpha aura, calmly said, “You will now tell me your name, your boss's name, and why you attacked this pack yesterday…” His bloodshot eyes looked at me with hatred, and he gave me a wicked smile.
Rose POVWe were having lunch. The Special Ops team, Luna Martha, informed me that Paige had requested a picnic basket to share with her sister. I have no idea Paige's intentions in taking Stella out on a picnic because their relationship is nearly non-existent.I was sitting next to Nate when Romeo walked inside the dining room. “Hey guys…! He greeted all of us, and his next question was, of course, “Where is Stella?”. I had to laugh because he was pretty obvious about his interest in my sister. “She went to have a picnic with Paige…” I said and the look on his face was priceless. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets.”OK, let me know when she gets back…” He patted Nate's back and headed towards the main table.After having a pleasant lunch with the guys, I went looking for Stella. I wanted to see how it went with Paige. I knocked
Stella POVMy head is pounding, and my heart is aching. I can't feel my wolf and my mind is drowning in an abyss of darkness.Paige, how could she? Her last confession made my blood freeze for an instant. I knew she would fight with me for his love, but trying to kill me was on another different level. If becoming an Omega was devastating, this would break me beyond repair.I have no idea what has happened to me, but the only thing I can feel is pain, emptiness, and sorrow. A warm feeling spread around my body and I felt some sort of relief. Where am I, and why can't I open my eyes? My lids seemed to be glued to each other.*****I have no idea how long I have been here, in this state. I wonder if Romeo is looking for me… I can't believe how much I miss him. I hear some faint noises and some faint herbal scents… they are soothing, but not to the extent that Romeo's
