Cursing, Jake started running Towards lelandi’s cousin.Lelandi tried to exit the wheelchair as her chest hurt, her heart thumping. She yelled, “Let him alone!”Darien told her to calm down before further injuring herself as he took her writhing body from the wheelchair and placed it in the backseat of his SUV. Silva, enter and force her to remain in place.But, I was planning to stay behind and—He shouted at Lelandi, trying to hold him motionless, “Go in!” “Hell, get behind the wheel. I’ll make sure the hellion stays seated. When someone unlocked the backseat’s second passenger door and grabbed Lelandi by the arm, she scrambled to extricate herself.She screamed. She squeaked, “Tom.”She smiled toothily at the unfortunate guy, whose head was still bandaged, but it was obvious that he was hurting as he tried to calm her down. Eventually, she stopped resisting him. What did it really matter? She wasn’t moving, and since her cousin had longer legs and greater strength in his movement t
She looked aside hastily. For what my sister done, I apologize. To find that she’d…” A feeling of sympathy washed through him as her voice broke. Her bottom lip trembled. “I apologize. I wished my sister, whom I loved, had never been matched to him. She had discovered you first, and she had loved you both as you both deserved. She wouldn’t have been harmed, and she would have been happy.Lelandi’s skin was silky soft, and her hand was little like her sister’s. He took her hand and ran his thumb over her fingers. “I assume she had a legitimate reason for acting in the way she did; it wasn’t your fault. In addition, I played a role in it. His hands were on her knees as he knelt down in front of her. Silva was accurate. Larissa and I couldn’t be apart. She continuously refused my advances while providing no explanation. I assumed she was trying to be difficult, possibly out of concern that the grays wouldn’t accept her as I did. She seemed like the perfect match to me. I found she wasn’t

What were your plans for the little lady? As Darien invited his troops to the leader’s pack meeting, Sam questioned in the kitchen.Lelandi was reclining on the couch and the medicine was making her drowsy once more, but she could still hear Sam despite his quiet voice.Darien answered, “She needs to be brought up to the guest bedroom. She needs to rest so she can regain her strength.“Tom has a ton of issues to talk about. Is he in good enough condition to discuss the issues? Sam enquired.The container was filled with ice. “Yeah. He’ll be alright.“Heard Jake lose the copper-coated guy near the bank,”Lelandi exhaled with relief. Her cousin was a beta, the baby of the litter. No genuine family ties. Nevertheless, the chief of the Bruin tribe would undoubtedly force her to mate with his brother Crassus, the idiot, if he brought her back home. There wouldn’t be enough Wildhavens.Silva whispered softly to Lelandi, “I was Larissa’s friend.” The sole female companion she had. Even so, N
Darien sat in his favorite leather chair in the living area and signaled to Tom to continue the brief discussion because he expected Trevor to hear all Silva and Lelandi surreptitiously talked while he was listening at the guest bedroom door.“Uncle Sheridan called and stated that he is rebuilding the crime scene about the hospital event with coffee drugging. Additionally, Doc Oliver is still recovering from the coffee, according to Tom. “One of the lab techs found out it was that GHB used in date rape.”“Crap. Are there any prints?“Tons. The issue is that everybody uses the coffeemaker. “Well, OK. What do you have to offer me? Sam delivered the pizza while Darien enquired.“I heard you told Carol Wood no when she asked to work as a nurse at the hospital. She asked whether I would try to influence you.“I still refuse. She has the option of moving to a different place if she doesn’t enjoy her job as a school nurse.Jacob removed a pizza slice from his plate. She’ll cause problems. I
But before this, she was being blackmailed by someone. That leads me to believe that she didn’t want him to inform Darien that they were mated, but that someone else did.That is a fairly low blow for a pack leader, I agree. Was the other guy she was matched to high up in the chain, Silva asked, her eyes widening.Lelandi disregarded the query. He drinks excessively and is abusive. I… I desired for my family to depart—to locate my brother. To establish a new home. But, they would not.Her hand was patted by Silva. “Ties to the pack too strong?” Lelandi remained silent. They weren’t connected to the usurpers’ pack. Merely a link to the landYet it wasn’t a smart idea to divulge too much. Like she hadn’t before.She didn’t answer, so Silva picked up the slack. Darien said he would send you back to your pack. But I believe he has changed his mind because of the way he kissed you. Do you really want to go back to them?Lelandi became agitated. “My parents were murdered! I’m not coming bac

What’s your name, she enquired. He was able to see her face, but she was unable to see his.She was determined to find out who he was in spite of his kissing, licking, and pressing his tongue into the seam of her lips. She pressed towards his chest. “No. Inform me. You are who?”He gave a headshake. Not getting it? Or perhaps you wouldn’t tell her? Had he already found love?Oh, how absurd that was. He was only a fantasy enthusiast.She backed away from him, wanting him to be the actual deal and not just an imagined figure. He tickled her as he gently caressed her shoulder with his hand. She averted her gaze. He soothed her irritation and sparked a flame deep within her. He used the most exquisite of tactile explorations as he licked her shoulder and lightly touched her naked hip without applying pressure. She gritted her teeth, slid his hand from her hip to her mouth, fighting the urge to give in to want.She spoke against his hand, “No.”She asked him to speak with her. Yet instead
