I stood there and stared at him and his perfect face for a minute. Why was he so impossibly handsome? I wanted to hate whatever mate I got, to reject him and never look back, but now that he was here, in front of me? No, now I wanted to leap into his arms and never let go, feel his orange scent wrap around me and take care of me until I die.
I could feel my pulse coursing roughly through me with every strong thud of my heartbeat. My palms were starting to feel clammy as I tried to remain calm enough to answer him, to ask him a question I'm not sure I wanted the answer to.
“Is that what you want? For me to walk away? I don’t even know your name, but I understand that Fae don’t feel the bond or the pull.”

MYLOJeff had explicit instructions to keep a close eye on Terran. He'd be relieved by Mazin because I couldn't trust Marek's temper, but hopefully, there would be no more bullshit from Terran now that he was with Marie.I refuse to be bothered by him, Kai on the other hand was threatening to make Marie mate-less. The way he brazenly stood up to us, tried to sidestep US... the Alpha, he wasn't having it. The only thing that saved him was that he wasn't a wolf or part of this pack, there was a certain tolerance I could allow until he realized how things worked. They'd have a few days to sort out their shit and then my tolerance for his insubordination would be gone.The moment I heard Dahlia's laughter, every problem or worry I’d had seemed to melt away. Just the sound of her happiness sparked a joy i

MYLO“No one,” Dahlia's voice was steady, “just another wolf from Langdale.”“Another wolf you’ve been involved with?” I tilted my head slightly as I found myself bulking, pressing more into her, “What about Troy?”“No,” she wrinkled her nose, “and same thing. There were only a handful of wolves in Langdale.”“It wasn’t a wolf,” I backed up a bit but remained caging her in, “his name is Terran.”“I thought Fae-”“So did we,” I interrupted her, “imagine little Marie’s surprise.” Dahlia looked like she had something on the tip of her tongue, b

DAHLIAMy fork hit the plate with a loud bang, plopping ninety percent of it right in the middle of my food as I leant back in my chair and crossed my arms over my chest.He didn’t even react. A simple glance at my plate before he went back to eating his own, which only fueled the rage I felt. I tried to let it go earlier, take a shower and calm down, but fuck, him. I took shit from everyone when I got pregnant, I was belittled and dragged through the proverbial mud because of it. I tried not to let the things people would say about an unmated single pregnant wolf bother me, but I’m only so strong, and some of it hurt to the point of tears. They would never be in my life so I tried not to let their comments keep me up at night, but Mylo, no… I wasn’t about to take it from him either.

MYLOWatching Nora eat was one of the most relaxing things I had experienced. She had simple needs, and her scent was another way to be around my mate, without being able to be around her. I couldn’t let Dahlia leave the kitchen yet, I wanted to talk with her but I needed to calm down first and Nora’s cries offered the perfect opportunity.I was bound to her and Dahlia forever now. This little bundle of innocence that wasn’t my blood but was now mine all the same, and my mate who had already rejected me once. The insurmountable pain that it caused was almost forgotten now, every moment with them erasing that part piece by piece, but it still made it hard to let my guard down around her.When I laid Nora down and went back, Dahlia was still standing where I left her. She was just as unsure of ho

MYLO“You can’t go there,” Dahlia pleaded, “he can’t know I have a mate, he can’t know you know.”“Who?” I demanded again, ignoring the panic in her voice, but she shook her head ‘no’ at me.“Mylo please… he’s vindictive, he will want her back if he knows I'm mated to another Alpha, and he’ll kill her. He’s not right in the head.”Her arms wrapped over her stomach as she pleaded with me, an abundance of fear dancing across her reactions as she watched me process what she told me.“How am I supposed to protect you if you won’t tell me?” I snapped, pacing back and forth in the room for a moment. I pulled her fr

DAHLIAI woke up to sparks fluttering across my face as Mylo softly brushed strands of my hair that had fallen over my face, back behind my ear. There was an intense ache between my thighs as my brain started to piece things together and the prominent press of his hardened length behind me had Orla pushing hard to come to the surface, making me practically jump out of bed.Shower. Yep, shower. Now would be a good time for a shower.I looked at him laying on the bed with an amused look on his face, shit, did I just mumble all of that out loud?“Are you ok to listen for Nora?” I whispered to him as I could feel the heat creeping into my cheeks, made worse as he stretched out.“Yes Ange

MYLO Goddess, she was beautiful. Dahlia may have woken in a frenzied state, but as she lept out of bed she couldn't be more perfect. Not only was I lucky, but the pack was going to be lucky to have her as their Luna. She's strong, smart, has the heart of an angel, and you couldn't help but laugh when she did, even if she wasn't that funny. She left the room trying to contain her laughter and her happiness was contagious. I would never get enough of her. This was a new side to her, light and unrestrained by worry. Our talk really cleared the air last night and I was glad to see that we didn't go five steps forward only to go ten back like every other time, this was different. This was real progress and soon, so fucking soon, she would officially be mine, ruling by my side as Luna. Luna. Dahlia would make an a

MYLO I walked back into the house, unsure if I could hold Kai off any longer. He wanted Dahlia claimed and marked immediately so no one else would ever dare make the mistake of coming near us again. As soon as Veronica laid her hands on me, he was flashing images of her lifeless body, and while I agreed, I also knew that wasn’t how I wanted to run this pack. Her being there was my mistake, and I’m sure after today she knows her place. Dahlia came out of the room with the baby monitor, setting it on the table as she looked at me. All I could feel was my pulse racing through me as my muscles remained taught and bulked. She was still in the fucking towel. I watched her stand there for a moment, but at times she was impossible to read, and the only tell

MYLO “Isabelle will be stripped of her powers until she is determined to not be a threat anymore,” Xander informed us. The room had been cleared of everyone but the royals, myself, Dahlia and Nora. “We have someone in Shadow Forest who can accomplish it and make sure it’s maintained,” Brianna said as she assessed me, “your father informed us that you would like the right to end Marcus’s life. Are you positive that you want to bear that burden, that you have thought about having to tell Nora in the future?” “We have,” I glanced down at Dahlia and Nora. “It’s my job to protect them, no one else should have to burden themselves with Marcus’s death. Nora will understand, if she cares to ask, that it was her life or his.” “With me then,” Xander motioned for me to fol

BRIANNA I was hesitant to keep my heirs in here for this, but the boys assured me they needed to see. Orion explained the nature of what was about to happen to Mylo and Dahlia who have both chosen to join us. “I’d like my mate to join me,” Marie’s timid voice rang out, “but if that’s not something you’d prefer, I would still like to remain.” Seeing as though Octavia would just fill him in later anyways, I gave her a nod of approval and Timber’s Beta was charged with keeping Nora safe in the next room. When Marcus came into the room, there was a shift in energy, as was to be expected, but when Terran entered the room, Dixon became visibly stiff. I knew Dixon had issues surrounding Fae, but to see such a strong immediate reaction was surprising. I guess he didn’t know that Marie’s mate was Fae until now.

BRIANNA Alaric may have felt like Nixon’s outburst was harmless, but anytime he let his powers slip was dangerous. I wanted to talk to him about it, not that it would change anything, but I also felt like I had talked about it with him until I was blue in the face. Nixon wanted to let his powers loose, he had been practicing with them lately, and I knew Octavia could help him to an extent, but it just seemed too dangerous to let his secret out. How many species would come for him? How would we stop them or protect him? Not only that, but I know from experience the hunger for controlling power killed my parents, Dez’s parents, and most of what should have been my pack. The problem was that he was too carefree, too powerful, and getting too old now for us to hold him back.

MYLOSomething happened between Nixon and Terran, what I wasn’t sure, but we could find out about it later when we had privacy.My mother scooped up Nora instantly when everyone made their way to the tables, positioning herself across from us, beside Brianna.“I’m glad to see your sister’s mate,” Xander started as he glanced down to where they sat at the far end of the table from us, “doesn’t insult easily.”“He’s used to dealing with my brother’s,” I smiled, “and he is mated to Marie.”“You’re too hard on her,” Wyatt laughed as he pulled Brianna into his lap, “what did you expect with parents like yours,&rdqu

TERRANMylo tried to prepare me for meeting their royals, and although they were something to take notice of, they clearly didn’t have the same effect on me as they did on everyone else. Marie was already wound tighter than cramped roots over everything that was going on, but when they walked in, every hair on her body stood at attention. Once they were in front of her, her energy shifted again as she dropped into a calm state that I hadn’t been able to get her to since the Marcus and Izzy incident.The kings were just how they described them, beastly in their appearance, dead inside if their facial expressions were any indication. Other than a side smile to the Luna, they were basically emotionless, standing by like psychopaths just waiting to be unleashed by their queen.When the heirs were introdu

DAHLIA I jolted at the sound when one of the kings cleared his throat. Watching the Queen be smitten with Nora was bringing a new level of comfort and happiness to me, a product I’m sure of the loyalty their blood brought out in me. It was a weird emotion to identify, but I felt in debt to them somehow when I’d only just met them, like any negative thought I could muster to think was suddenly gone and replaced with an intense need to appease them. My whole body seemed so relaxed now, a stark contrast to moments before they walked in, and it was easy to get swept away in watching the Queen take in Nora, so much so that I forgot anyone else was in the room with us. “You’ll have to excuse Brianna,” he started as he picked up my hand and kissed the top of it, “she’s apparently lost her mind now that a baby is

DAHLIAI was a nervous train wreck even though I tried not to let it show. I held my head steady as we walked into the packhouse, every wolf we passed looking at us with caution as we passed by.‘Your instincts are correct,’ Mylo linked me as he squeezed my hand slightly when we entered the dining area, ‘but you are safe here, so try to enjoy yourself, Luna.’‘That was definitely not the impression you just gave to Terran,’ I linked back as I caught sight of his parents. After he was done re-explaining things to Terran, I felt as though I had been given the child version of his warnings.&lsq

MYLO When Marie and Terran arrived they were escorted to an accommodation close to us to get settled in. Dahlia was pacing back and forth as I fed Nora. Anxious, like myself, to get the next few days over with, but it shouldn’t be long before Alderic is back to get ready for supper. Supper would be a good distraction for her as she focuses on the royals, but it posed another level of worry for me. While the royals never posed a threat to us before, Wyatt was unpredictable at best and I haven't had contact with the heirs often enough to be able to judge their behaviours. Dahlia's eyes were slightly glossed over as she 'tidied' up the place, pausing at one point and staring out of one of the windows at the front.I pla

MYLO “Is she pissed?” Alderic asked as I stepped outside to wait for Dahlia. “No,” I shook my head, “but you’re lucky SHE was the one who submitted you.” “Yea that one’s on me,” he shook his head, "all this Alpha energy is making Leto brazen. You'd think he'd be the opposite, I mean he's no coyote," he looked at me and laughed lightly, tucking his hands into his pockets, "but he's used to being around it, we've done things like this since we were kids." Leto had a history of trying to outrank other leaders so it didn’t come to me as a surprise. What mattered most to me was that he was already tempering Leto before Dahlia made him submit and that I knew when it came down to it that he would lay down his life for her and Nora.
