Ela’s pov I have told my mother everything and she has been very vocal about the whole thing. She was angry at Easton, but she said that him being here was a good sign of progress. Easton has been sending me plants and even a letter last night, it really explained some things. Easton had a real different upbringing them I had apparently, getting handed everything. It had made him spoiled and when he did had to work hard, he focused all his attention on that. Leaving no space for me. Talia said I had to wait at least a week before I replied to him. “Ela, you waited four months for this man. He needs to sweat a bit.” Talia said. She was probably right, but I had already waited so long for him and now that he was here, I would rather try to work things out than play games. I wanted to talk to him or shout at him. Ignoring Easton felt wrong, especially after I said to Milo that I would be there for him. “Maybe Talia isn’t the best person to get advice from, she hasn’t met her mate ye

Lily’s pov I was way more invested in Ela and Easton than was healthy. At least that was what Osiris said. To think, I was once a girl that didn’t want to meet her mate. And now, now I loved seeing love. It was like my personal soap opera, happening in front of me. I didn’t know Ela or Easton well enough to intervene, but Easton did live in the packhouse right now. I also saw Easton a lot, Osiris wanted me to be there for some of the pack meetings. He was coming up with a type of law book. But I did have a reason to see Easton today, I wanted to ask him what we could do about Damian. Damian was still locked up in the dungeon, although he could come out to work at Cyrus’ farm. But I felt bad for him, for Kane. It had been more than six months. “Is that the love thing again?” Arya joked, “you just want Kane and Damian to be together?” Part of it maybe, but mostly it was that Damian was working really hard. Seeing a therapist, doing everything without complaining or asking for mercy.

Easton’s pov I had been working hard the last two days, trying to help Alpha Osiris and Luna Lily share their new plan for this pack. It was a cool idea, but they wanted impute from Alpha Edward and Samira too. Samira was a tough woman. I spend three days with her after Milo lost control and she was really pissed at me. Saying I should have been taking care of my wolf better. She can be really scary and I don’t want to be on her bad side. I have heard about Alpha Edward and saw him briefly during the trial. I actually saw the moment Alpha Edward and Samira met and I knew these few days would be awkward. I don’t think they saw me, but when Alpha Edward shook her hand he quickly pulled away. Samira then started to laugh, “don’t worry. I have no interest in another one.” I wasn’t sure what it meant, but it was strange. During the last two days Samira and Alpha Edward had either fought or ignored each other. They sat as far away as possible from each other and the whole thing was maki

Ela’s pov “You can drive, I’ll put in the coordinates to our surprise destination.” I told Easton, exited for the weekend away. His car was much nicer than mine and I preferred being in the passenger seat anyway. Easton started to drive, it was only an half hour away. “I am so happy to be going away. Mostly because I get to spend time with you sweets, but also because it has been absolutely insane during those meetings. So it turns out Samira and Alpha Edward are second mates and they hate each other. Like not in an opposite attracts kind of way, but they really dislike each other and I don’t see how the Goddess would pair them together.” Easton said. I wondered out loud, “is the Moon Goddess that powerful? Doesn’t she ever make mistake? Those who have an abusive mate for example. I’d like to think we still have a choice too.” Easton looked at me, “I never know if it’s the mate bond or my choice, but I don’t care. Maybe it’s the mate bond that started my feelings for you, but I c

Easton’s pov I was so happy Ela said yes to living together. I had loved being with her. The beach was awesome, but Ela. Wow. This was unlike anything I had ever felt. Her body, O my Goddess and the way she felt, tasted, smelled. It was heaven being with her. And she is so funny and so smart. It was hard to focus on our meeting today, when all I could think about was Ela. Her smile, her soft skin, - “Easton? Do you agree?” Alpha Osiris asked. I didn’t dare say that I hadn’t heard a single thing he had said, but luckily I was interrupted before I could answer. “Why do you keep staring at me?! Damnit, Edward focus on something else or I walk!” Samira shouted. “Let’s have a break, “Luna Lily said. “Dad stay behind, “Luna Lily said, not paying attention to me still in the room. I wanted to leave, but I still had to gather my stuff. This was probably going to be a private conversation, so I gathered my stuff as quickly as possible. “Dad, what is going on? I thought you talked and a
