GENEVA’S POVMy world was crashing, and there was nothing to hold on to. I want to cling to Zion’s shirt and shake some sense into him. I want to yell in his face for him to shut his mouth. I want to stop him from spouting rubbish and tell him not to say lies about people he didn’t know.It had to be fake, lies, an effort to make himself look good. He didn’t want people to know he kept a feral wolf, so he was putting the blame on somebody he hated, and that was my dad. Why would Dad kill Zion’s father when he was mated to Mom?He loved Mom a lot, and everyone in the pack was aware of this. The main reason why I wanted a mate was because of them, so how was it possible that he was obsessed with Emily? I don’t believe it. I can’t believe it.He keeps saying they molested and tortured Zuri, but my brothers were not monsters. My pack members were not horrible people. I won’t believe it.But mom’s words that night kept haunting me. How she blamed dad for leading her babies down the wrong pa

I stood at the entrance, leaning against the door and watched as Elena tried to check on Zuri and ensure she was fine. When she transformed earlier, she was so scared and growled when Zion wanted to go close to her. The action had hurt him so badly, and I could see it on his face as he turned and went to fetch Benjamin to see if Zuri would allow him to touch her, and she did. Right now, Zion and a still shocked Emily were standing awkwardly in the room, far from the bed where Benjamin had his arms wrapped around her to prevent her from snapping at Elena. I could tell how much Emily wanted to be the one in Benjamin’s place. Her daughter turned human after so many years, but she wouldn't allow her to come close. I studied her from my spot. She looked almost identical to her brother, just a little older, but they could pass as twins if they tried. Her black hair was at her waist, and small over her face, shaped by big, round grey eyes with terror she tried to hide and replace with anger

I opened my eyes slowly, feeling a warm and comforting sensation enveloping me, and it made me feel a strong sense of security. I didn’t have to turn back to know Zion was still in bed; the pair of strong arms wrapped around me protectively under the blankets were an obvious signs.I turned my body to face him so I could look at him and saw that he was still asleep. His face was peaceful, and I was tempted to ghost my fingers over his eyelids and lips, so I did just that. My finger traced the features of his face, from his brows to his lips.I was so in love with this man, I felt like I didn’t have enough words to express how much I felt. The words were choking and needed to be let out, but I didn’t know how well to express how strongly I felt for him.“I love you,” I whispered, almost like a prayer, and leaned to press my lips against his softly. I gasped in surprise when his hands around me tightened and he deepened the kiss, pulling me flush against his body.My hands travelled to h

“Elaine, stop running, baby, or you’ll hurt yourself,” I yelled from where I sat under the huge tree and watched him run around the large field chasing butterflies with the other pups.There was a smile on my face as I watched him giggle and push the other pups lightly. We have been spending almost every day together since Zuri left, since I wanted to give Zion and Emily the space they needed. Zion wasn’t taking Zuri’s leaving well. He had been moody, not to me but to the others. He doesn’t talk much or eat much.I wanted to comfort him, but I knew he needed time and space to miss her and accept that the decision was the best for Zuri. Elaine was the perfect remedy to distract me from everything. He always made me laugh with his antics, and he was annoyingly curious and was always in my face, asking the weirdest questions.“You can take your eyes off him for a minute. He won’t disappear or get hurt if you continue reading that book in your lap,” Lily said with a laugh, and I turned to

We were having dinner in the pack house’s kitchen, and it was one of those rare days when Jamie, Isaac, Elena, Lily and even Zion were present. Things had been slow lately, so everyone had been less busy. The pack was peaceful, and it gave us enough time to connect and do things together.“Where is Elaine?” Lily asked as she took a bite of the chicken Emily had grilled to perfection earlier.“He is playing with the other pups. I can’t get him to stay in one place, even to eat,” I complained, and they all burst out laughing.“He takes after you. You are so difficult to handle,” Elena commented, and I threw the napkin beside me at her face.They’ve all come to accept Elaine as my and Zion’s pup naturally, and sometimes they referred to him as though I gave birth to him, always claiming that he takes certain traits from me or Zion, and it made me happy.Elaine had also settled in as our pup too well. The room Zion made for him was beautiful, and Elaine actually cried when he first saw it.
