DARIEN’S entire body went numb as he stared at Larissa’s letter in disbelief. He reread the note in an effort to decipher its hidden significance.He got up from his seat and left the eating area. How was he able to be so blind? Had the woman he had been with another man before? Who? He’d murder him.Darien couldn’t recall entering his office or sitting down at his desk. Jake! He yelled as he glared at the letter and clenched it.Jake walked into the office sporting a perplexed expression.“Bring Lelandi in right away.”Jake’s brows furrowed, he gave a brief nod, and then he shut the door.A minute later, Tom came in, his eyes wild. “Darien, what’s wrong? Jake claims you are prepared to murder someone. To let me in on the small conversation to let me in on the small talk to filling me in on the little talk about the“No.”“But—”“No!”Tom nodded for a short moment as his neck muscles tensed. “You’re in charge.”Lelandi was invited into the space by Jake. Her eyes suddenly darted from
“Leidolf’s the alpha of the pack? Where?” Oregon’s “Portland.”“Have you let him know I’m here?”Shaking his head, Darien. “No. I had no idea who he was in the world.“Oh.”Do you wish for me to inform him?She was unsure. He’ll want me to become a part of his pack.Backing up in the love seat, Darien. “You’re not leaving,” I said.She inhaled deeply and fiddled with the shirt hem, her fingers brushing her exposed skin. “I’ll tell you everything I have to say about my pack, so listen up. Bruin managed his pack and didn’t put up with any lions that tried to revolt. When Larissa left, I was afraid he would get even with the rest of us. Later, in a terrible vehicle accident, my mother and father passed away.“Murder.”She let out a little hmpf. “No question,”“But, your folks gave you flowers.” “Someone’s sick joke. Insisting that he would declare Larissa dead and match me to his brother, Bruin kept me under observation. The night before I was to be mated with Crassus, I received the let
Lelandi intended to push Darien away, but she tentatively caressed his waist instead. She wanted to pull off his shirt and caress every inch of him while he touched her, just like the man had done with her in her dream. She checked to be sure he wasn’t the dreamy figure.But between her legs, liquid heat collected, and fire filled her stomach. No Lupus Garou had ever grinned so seductively, and no Lupus Garou had ever ignited her blood the way he did.“It’s…” She intended to inform him that it wasn’t proper. He only desired to rediscover the love he had previously shared with her sister. He didn’t genuinely want her.But he put his hand over her mouth to silence her protests. Greedily, hungrily, and blatantly kissed her as if she were the last woman on world and he had been without a woman for years.Her breathing became faster. She recognized his feel, hardness, power, and the delicate way he caressed her and claimed her now that she was no longer in agony or taking medication that
Her waist was squeezed by a firm erection that was eager to smash through her virginal barrier.She maneuvered around him so that his back was to the bed, then using his shirt to hold him prisoner, she forced him onto the mattress. His eyes glittered with evil delight, and his mouth curled upward. His legs were forced apart as she stepped in between them. She was in charge this time and unfettered like in her dreams.She already desired flipping on her back and letting him take her, but she planned to build herself up slowly and punish him instead. She obviously didn’t want to be in charge. He saw her struggle as she reached down to loosen his belt while folding his arms behind his head. Despite her best efforts, she was unable to remove the belt’s hook. He finally let out a low-pitched chuckle, hurriedly undressed, and then pulled her onto him, bare skin to bare skin.Every muscle in his lean, corded body strained in admiration of his beauty. She thought of how his erection was alrea
He wrapped his finger in a curl of her hair. You have to inquire? It was like a connecting of our souls, the conclusion of a lifelong search, and the realization of a goal I’ve been working for for months. I can’t even begin to describe how that made me feel.She exhaled deeply. “I feel the same way. Only I anticipated you would be smaller.He chuckled. The genuine article feels better. “Real.”Tom said, “See you at the opening ceremony,” and slammed the front door.Darien cried out. Must leave. So, we’re leaving the party early so we can come back here. You’re certain you don’t wish to remain here till my return?“No, I’m not going to prison; you promised to get me out, and I’m going to the fair.”“Lelandi, I want to keep you secure.”“I’ll be secure and considering the celebrations following the wedding.”Lelandi was completely exposed as Darien got out of bed and turned around. “You’re gorgeous. Absolute gift from God.You’re not that horrible yourself, either. “Adonis, remember?”
German cuisine, music, and beverages are abundant during Fest. Although we don’t promote the events, more people are coming to visit us every year as a result of word of mouth. The boys will get ready in a different room.The space was filled with shelves, and two doors opened to reveal a walk-in wardrobe where clothes were strung on rods. At one end of the closet, Silva opened a drawer in a chest. It’s time to go back to a time when the men in the household wore the pants.Shaking her head, Lelandi They believe that they still do. She took off her sweatshirt and took her bra off. She had abandoned her corset during the Victorian era and had never imagined wearing one again.Lelandi fingered the dresses before removing one made of beautiful blue satin.Silva held up two garters. Do you recall these? “No one will see what I am wearing beneath the gown.” Silva grins. Daniel “will”He probably doesn’t dress up for these events, I bet. Hey, Silva exclaimed. “He made the demand, after all.
Angelina was haughtily leaning against the bar, and Lelandi longed to close her mouth for her. Lupus garous were cautious about what they revealed when in mixed society. And this woman was too enraged to give a damn.A blonde human female asked, her blue eyes wide, “Three gunshot wounds? She appeared uninterested in the Victorian-era festivities as she sat on a heavy-duty parka wearing jeans, snow boots, and a tight-fitting ski pullover that displayed her large breasts. She isn’t the subject of everyone’s attention, is she? Who, according to some, appeared to have been claimed by death?“Surface injuries.” The lupus garou bitch received a warning glance from Lelandi.“You ought to be dead,” Ritka and Hostene joined Angelina as she sat down with a glass of Coke she had just retrieved from the counter. I suppose Hostene had recruited another person to staff her costume rental table for the day.She’s a pain in the ass, Angelina. Silva took a full tray and set the empty one down on the
Thank you, but I’m fully recovered. Perhaps a fresh bruise though. Ritka received a warning glance from Lelandi that she would deal with her later. “Thanks for your assistance.”“I respect a woman with grit. Your bravery makes me think of my sister, who is roughly your age. She has occasionally gotten herself into situations where I have had to save her.She secretly wished her brother had stayed around and helped her family more like Chester. What did you mean when you said I was self-observing?“Darien is too involved in the events involving your sister. I’ve already been there. He requires a stranger. Someone who is less susceptible to being influenced by their family or lifelong friends.Someone similar to you?“I’ve been a private investigator for a while. I am not personally invested in the cases I’ve worked on. That’s all I have to say.What are your knowledge on this case? Lelandi believed he could provide her with some context.“Nothing. My pursuers keep watch over me day and
