Laura POV Ava holds my hand as she sings to me and then throws me into a hug by surprise. “Oh, Laura. I’m so glad you’re here. I’m so glad you’re in our lives,” she murmurs before pulling back and gently gripping onto my forearms. “I’m so glad that one day you’re going to be my sister-in-law!”A hesitant laugh escapes my chest. “Yeah,” I rasp. “That caught me off-guard a little.”Ava’s face falls with sudden realization. “Oh, my Goddess. I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable! I love seeing you guys together. Honestly, you’re so perfect. I don’t think you realize.”“It’s okay,” I say with a smile. “I just wasn’t expecting it.”“Weddings get me so excited. I love love!” she yells.My lips spread with enthusiasm. “I’m so glad I met you, too, Ava.” I’m engulfed in another hug before I pull myself away, in desperate need of five minutes to myself. “I’m gonna go grab some water.”She nods before turning towards Phia and Grace. I push my way out of the crowd and approach

Laura POV When I’m finished, he takes my plate from me, and I jump down from the counter. “Come on.” He takes my hand and presses a kiss on my forehead. “Let’s get you back to bed.”Once he leads me out of the kitchen and up the stairs, we pause outside my bedroom, and I hesitate for a moment. A new wave of self-assurance washes over me.“Goodnight, baby,” he whispers. “Sleep well.”My fingers raise to his mouth, and he leaves a peck on my knuckles. I stare at the action, and my heart flutters like a butterfly. He drops my hand and turns to walk down the hall towards his own bedroom.I stand there fumbling with my fingers, the words on my tongue. After everything I experienced today, the last thing I want to be is alone. It’s a part of the reason why I think I couldn’t sleep.“Max,” I called.He stops and turns around. “What’s the matter?”“Can I?” I swallow the lump in my throat.I hear footsteps until he’s directly in front of me again. “Tell me, Laura.”“The bed you sleep in,” I

Laura POV She reassured me that having any sexual thoughts shouldn’t be seen as shameful despite what I might have been told in the past.Every woman has a right to pleasure, whether that be sexual or not.I tell myself to ignore this sudden rush of fire. I can speak to Gemma once this training session is over she will help me dive deeper into the cause.A girl beside me begins to fan herself as she watches Maxwell and Kayden fight. I narrow my eyes as she bites down on her lip and releases a whimper. My face twitches at the sight of her gaze on Maxwell and she’s no better than me, but it triggers a wildfire in my heart.An unsettling feeling ripples through my stomach, and I hate that it tastes like jealousy. Her eyes flare with excitement every time Maxwell throws Kayden down onto his back. I tighten my fists at my sides and find my entire body vibrating.Time is called for the first groups of sparrers, and Kayden calls out the next pairs. I stand back as they weave in and out of

Laura POVAva and Sebastian have been home from their honeymoon for an entire day before Maxwell drags Sebastian away to train. I take a walk with Ava through the town for a change of scenery. Every last detail of their honeymoon? I heard about it.I swear this woman doesn’t have a filter, but I appreciate her willingness to share. It makes me feel like I’ve been here all along. I smile listening to her; it’s nice to hear happy stories and exciting memories being made.“Anyway.” She waves a hand in her face. “Enough about me. How was it whilst we were away?”A soft hum vibrates off my lips. “Yeah. It’s been good. Maxwell’s back to training everyone until they bleed internally.”Ava snorts. “Sounds like my brother.”We fell into a comfortable silence for the first time since we stepped out of the house, and I let my boots kick the leaves that have fallen on the path.My head tilts towards Ava, who is smiling up at the blue sky. I part my lips, the question on the tip of my tongue. S

Maxwell POVOh, shit.I’ve really done it this time.I watch as Laura darts out of the kitchen, and I mentally scold myself for being so crude. The way her shameless gaze lay on me, like I had no idea, but I did it. I felt everything. It sent my wolf wild, and I let a stupid thought slip through the mindlink. I’d be an awful liar if I said I didn’t mean a single word because I did. Goddess, the things I would do to her with her full consent. My wolf claws at me desperately.I excuse myself from the group and follow Laura. Oh, Goddess. I’ve got a lot of making up to do. I told her I’d go at her pace, and now, I’m jumping the gun because of everything she makes me feel when she looks at me.I follow her scent and find myself walking straight into her room. I notice the bathroom door is ajar. My knuckles raise to brush the wooden frame as I look at her through the tiny crack. Her hands wrapped around the edge of the sink. “I’m sorry, Laura,” I blurt. “I should not have said that to
