Semua Bab Rejected Mate: The Alpha's Secret Luna.: Bab 61 - Bab 70

It was all I could do not to cower to the ground and show him my neck....I hated it.I wasn't the only one impacted by his unnecessary display of strength, although I suspected, he was doing it all for my benefit. Several other lesser wolves responded, fidgeting, and I even heard a small whine.Swallowing thickly, I reached the group of couches where Alpha Wilder and Alpha Griffin of the Druid pack were already seated.Two wolves reclined on either side of each alpha. From their large size, they had to be Betas. I recognized one of them, Beta Harrison, from my visit with Onyx Moon. However, neither he nor Alpha Wilder acknowledged my presence with any trace of recognition. I breathed a small sigh of relief. Alpha Wilder had to remember me, but I was thankful he gave away no hint of our previous meeting.Calla still stood to the side of one of the couches, hip out, posturing, flaunting the assets she knew she had, as she carried on a conversation with one of the Betas from the Druids.

Brutal. Dangerous. Deadly.BrinleyThe meeting continued for several hours. Both Beta Dean and Alpha watched me like a hawk, but thankfully, with the conference in session, neither could really bother me.I was also relieved to find Beta Dean taking an interest in several other shewolves, not just me. And Calla had not fallen off of his radar completely. She made a point to stay front and center, making sure his beverage stayed full, bringing him refills even when it wasn't necessary.I made a point to be as scarce and unnoticeable as possible.Walking back to the serving stations, I tried not to hobble, the pain in my toes excruciating from standing in these damned shoes for so long. Lena watched me, her face screwed into the perpetual scowl of disgust she wore every time she laid eyes on me.I turned away, busying myself with useless tasks like stacking napkins and organizing glasses that were already in perfect order.The noise of the crowd became louder. Glancing up, I found sever

Lies & AccusationsCoalRyder and I walked toward the packhouse. Several wolves milled around, remnants from the recently disbanded meeting.I hoped I found my father quickly because I was eager to get this debriefing over with. The trip couldn't have gone more shockingly different than I expected-first with the vampires, and then our meeting with Alpha Mason.The only thing I wanted to do was hold Brinley in my arms and make sure she was okay. But the instant we walked through the door, everything changed.He was here......that bastard who raped Brinley!No communication passed between my Wolf and me, it wasn't necessary. The instant we smelled him, we were in agreement, our shift instantaneous.Adrenaline and bloodlust pushed hard through my body like a drug, exploding neurons firing in my brain, chaotic and frenzied all toward one goal, one purpose-the despicable male was going to die!Every nerve ending in my body crackled with anticipation of the kill.Rip him apart! Until nothi

For Your CourageBrinleyMy world fractured around me, little tiny pieces of my heart and soul drifted down like snowflakes.That Wolf...That Wolf who violated me.Beta Dean.He was here. And he lied. In front of several packs of wolves, he'd basically called me a whore and said I'd had sex with him willingly! The thought caused my belly to roil. I swallowed back my bile.And Alpha believed him. I could see it in his angry glare. Alpha also made it very clear how he saw me--a piece of ass. That was it. I was worth no more than that. Humiliation washed over me, leaving my cheeks red, as every wolf in the room stared.I tried to control my shaking as Alpha turned his glare from Coal to me and back again. I didn't like the look in his eyes. It made me feel as though the next words from his mouth were going to destroy me. However before he could speak, Amber rushed through the crowd and crouched next to Coal's bleeding body, gushing about how thankful she was that he was okay....what wa

No Going BackBrinley"What do we do now?" I whispered, my voice hoarse with anxiety, as I shakily stood, following Langdon to his feet."We shift, travel as wolves. We need to hurry," lips pressed together, Langdon's expression was grim.His last sentence caused cold fear to trickle down my spine. What if we were already too late? Even with accelerated healing from the mate bond, was Coal too severely injured to be saved? As if reading my thoughts, Langdon stopped. His eyes bore into mine. "You can do this. Pull yourself together and focus. It will take everything you have. But you can do it."I nodded, blinking back the moisture in my eyes, my heart thumping loudly in my chest.Langdon said nothing else, just began to undress. I was past the point of worrying about his or my nakedness and quickly shed my shirt and pants, sliding off my bra and finally my panties.To Langdon's credit, he didn't stare directly at me, but nor did he turn fully away. He could see me from his peripheral
