Logan I jolt awake as an ear-piercing scream shatters the silence. Artemisia is clawing onto the bed sheets as Matthew is already leaning over her, trying to calm her down. “Baby, what’s wrong?” I ask her, trying to take her face into my hands but as soon as I touch her she screams again. Fuck.
Artemisia I wake up feeling like I got hit by a bus running at full speed. Peeling my eyes open, I think I must be hallucinating as his mouth-watering scent invades my senses. Turning in his strong arms, I find myself in the embrace of Fynn, who is still sleeping peacefully. I rub my eyes, thinki
Artemisia My plans of accepting the job offer of Mr. Davies get disrupted as I help organise the ball along with Cayden as well as the excursion with the pups. I hum as Logan’s confession keeps me in a good mood, and I actually look forward to going to the ball with Fynn, even if it means that it
Artemisia “Missy?” I stop biting the nail of my thumb as Astrid calls me, tearing me out of my thoughts. “Huh?” “Are you alright, dear?” She asks me as she leans into my line of sight. I realise where I am, looking around me lost as I look for my files. “Yeah, yeah. Sorry. I was pensive because
“Perfect!” Gregorius claps his hands before he shakes me by grabbing my shoulders. “Good job, Ms. Beta.” I smile, trying to keep my balance. “Thank you!” He nods happily, before walking out and Fynn is about to follow him as I step aside, wondering what the hell got into me. “Fynn!” I call out a
Artemisia He growls annoyed, even if it nearly seems like he is trying to cover a purr. I giggle as I step out of the hut. “Now, if you could mind-link Logan or Matthew, I would need someone carrying me for real.” He rolls his eyes as he closes the door behind us, and I’m just waiting for his eye
Which he shares with a bunch of other wolves, so who even cares? His glare is still locked on me as I look back between the two and laugh awkwardly, “Oh, erm… My shoes were killing me, so he carried me.” Rage flashes on his face as I wind myself in his arms, making him let go of me, “Sorry, I can
Artemisia “One, two, three… Would you please hold still?” Lisa and I chuckle as we watch Celeste count the pups that can’t seem to hold still.“They are so cute,” I say, pushing myself off the small bus that we are leaning on. Lisa is still biting on a straw from the juices we just drank. “Terrib
Emma. *** Ace - 5 years ago I observe Emma as she stares in awe, a happy smile plastered on her face. She inspects the many little colourful lights that are hanging from the ceiling of our treehouse and honestly, I am glad she likes them so much because it took me hours to put them up. I scoot
Ace My anxiety grows exponentially as I follow Gregorius into the forest with fast steps. I know that my parents can handle the situation perfectly, but I’m not sure that me helping out Gregorius instead of staying at the pack house to help my father is a good idea. “Are you sure this is what we
Finnegan As I had anticipated, it doesn’t take long for Missy to come rushing down the stairs and reach me in front of the large doors leading to our sons’ quarters. I take a few steps to meet her halfway in the hopes that the smell of destruction and burned ground doesn’t reach her as the doo
I hold my breath as I take a step towards them, despite my racing thoughts and Drake raging in my mind, I can hear Emma’s heart beating, her feeble breathing signalising that she is still alive. “Kai?” “I stopped just in time.” His whisper paired with his lost expression and his saddened grin has
Finnegan “And if we take a few men from here,” Gregorius, my head warrior, reaches over the gigantic map laid out on the table, pulling three figurines to move them to the other side of our territory. “We could cover a larger territory. I know that the Judge doesn’t like this, but we could stop an
Emma“Kai?” All I get as an answer is a growl, his suppressing aura making it hard to breathe and as I can’t seem to access my wolf, who just seconds before was practically running wildly in my mind, I’m beginning to panic. Is he locking my wolf away? I gulp painfully, resisting the urge to take
“Alpha Guerrieri, Alpha Saviano, as you surely already know, we aren’t in need of any support. But we appreciate your offer, and I would suggest that I let a few omegas prepare two guest rooms for you in the east wing so that you can participate in the festivities with the Judge. But I have to ask y
Emma I get startled awake by another nightmare, waking up just at the perfect moment to escape one of the guards of my dark cell piercing a silver knife into my skin. Groaning, I push my hair out of my face, scanning the bedroom. To my disappointment, my mate is still gone, and I push out a breath
Emma I flinch as a set of red eyes come closer, shining through the pitch-black darkness of the cell I’m sitting in. Shuddering, I clasp my mother’s long dress for comfort as I can still smell her scent. Even if it is slowly turning sour, her skin’s coldness only adds to the one seeping into my b
