Tangled in Moonlight のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 151 - チャプター 160

Clayton grabbed his backpack and they all set off down a very clear and very public pathway into the forested area. The air was fresh and crisp and the rain had momentarily eased, though they were all wearing rain jackets in preparation for the imminent downpour. The day was grey and cloudy and as a result, in spite of the area being very public, it was at least very quiet. When they had parked, there had only been one other vehicle in the parking area, giving them some peace of mind for when it came to shifting, if the opportunity arose."Gosh, this place is like a bog!" Camden exclaimed, stepping into a puddle that nearly consumed her boot. "Watch your step," Clayton mused from in front of her. Matt was positioned behind her and asked, "What if we don't find them?" Camden's heart sank at the thought. It was definitely a possibility based on the fact that it seemed highly unlikely that any pack might stay in such a public space. "I'm not sure," she frowned. "Then I guess we hope for

Just as the dark-haired woman was making her way up the stairs of one of the cabins, Camden saw the door open. A tall man with captivating features strolled out and stood beneath the awning, regarding them over the railing. "And what have ye brought me today, Heather?" he asked in his thick Scottish brogue, regarding Camden for a brief moment before turning his attention on Beef who was holding Matt's wolf. "We found them wandering off the path. Apparently there was some kind o' altercation between two o' them. Bren and David are trackin' the other one tae bring him back here," the dark-haired woman, Heather, answered as she moved to stand beside the man. "Hmmm..." he mused before rounding on Camden once more. "And who are ye?" he asked curiously. Camden took in his handsome features. From where she was standing she noted that he also looked to be in his mid-30's with black hair, a short trimmed beard and vibrant blue eyes. "I'm Camden," she replied cautiously. "No' from around here

Camden regarded Alpha Adrian for a moment, her brow furrowed and her jaw clenched in defiance. "I have to respectfully disagree with that, Alpha Adrian. All I want is for things to be calm and peaceful, but for some reason, chaos always seems to find me at every opportunity. I can assure you that I'm not out here looking for ways to make my life more challenging. I came here to look for a way to make it easier. I'm hopeful that your father might have more information that could potentially assist me in figuring out this second mate situation. Now, I'd very much like to check on my mates if that's alright by you?" Her voice was brimming with authority and her tone held a sharp edge she hadn't intended for it to. Especially not when speaking to an Alpha. And even moreso, especially not an Alpha she needed help from.Alpha Adrian raised his eyebrows as she spoke. He certainly wasn't used to being on the receiving end of the tone she had used and contemplated his response for a moment. Sh

Camden steadied her nerves before beginning, "Well, starting with the most immediate issue, your being feral, he said you shouldn't shift. Obviously, there were also lingering concerns about how you would behave in your human form, hence the handcuffs, but you seem to be okay. You are okay, right? No lingering urges to kill me?" she asked, half joking, half serious. "It's not funny, Cam. I was so dangerously close...." but he trailed off, refusing to complete his sentence. "I'm sorry," she apologized, realising that now wasn't the time for jokes and Clayton was right to be upset. "You're right, that wasn't funny. I guess I'm just trying to make light of it as a coping mechanism or something. I was really scared, Clayton," she murmured, looking at him and trying to make the connection between the man sitting beside her and the beast that was seconds from tearing her apart only hours ago. He nodded, acknowledging her explanation, but had nothing further to say on the matter.&n

Clayton gave Camden another kiss on the top of her head before whispering, "Can I get up quick? I need to talk to Matt." She nodded, sitting up to allow him to move freely. He stood up, his gaze meeting Matt's, who gave him a cold stare. "You know, one of these days I'm going to get even with you," Matt said seriously as he sized Clayton up. "You've punched me, pinned me against a wall, and now you've thrown me against a tree in a very real attempt to kill me. I'm beginning to think you don't like me," Matt grumbled, his eyes narrowed as he glared at Clayton. Clayton couldn't help the small smile that escaped his lips. "Listen, I can't help it if you can't take a hint," he replied. Matt chuckled before Clayton added, "And before you forget, let me just remind you, you bit me!" "It was a love bite," Matt waved him off dismissively. "You punched Matt? When did you do that?" he heard Camden's voice asking from the floor beside him. "The night you ran away," Matt re
