As Seen by the PackFor a moment the pack was silent.Then it was not.The hall erupted into noises of excitement and fascination, as everyone stared at the new Luna of Eclipse. They’d been sure they’d seen wolves in all colors—brown, red, gray, black, even white—but never had they seen a wolf like
“I saw your Mark glowing,” I said, narrowing my eyes at him a little. I couldn’t let him think he’d get away with that—it raised too many questions, even if I was too overjoyed right now to be concerned about any of them. It was hard to be concerned about anything when I had my wolf back. Elroy jus
I was still processing that kiss, but apparently my wolf wasn’t so flustered. Well well, I heard her say, almost amused at my internal struggle, It’s good to see you’re doing so well. I flushed bright red at the implication, but the embarrassment was secondary to the overwhelming joy of hearing her
In the dream, he looked at me with the same spine-tingling hunger of that first night, only this time I was sober. It didn’t change the way my thighs clenched, or the nearly overwhelming desire that he made me feel, but now I could give as good as I got. And I got it good.His cock filled me up exac
Through Olivia’s EyesI must be confused. I was still dreaming, right? Why else would Elroy be in here, looking at me like that?Nope, my wolf said cheerfully. You are 100% awake right now! There was a long moment of silence where I just stared into his eyes, which were blown wide in interest. My
Except…everyone avoided me.I was thrown off, honestly, not sure how to proceed, but I couldn’t just leave. So I held my head high and made for the hors d’oeuvres, determined to find somebody to chat with. I was disgusted to find many of the plates had tuna, something I knew I couldn’t eat while pre
I shook myself, putting on a stern face. I couldn’t know if what she was saying was true, but even if it was that didn’t change the situation I was in with Rita at that moment. I had to handle her first, without letting her know how deeply she’d shaken me.I looked down at her finger in my chest, un
“Okay, I have some questions for you, alright? Do you think you can answer them for me, so I know how to help you?” He nodded. “What’s your name, sir?”“Barnes,” he forced out.“Thank you Mr. Barnes. Can you rate the pain for me?”“Ten!” he gasped, curling in on himself so tightly he was shaking. He
The council chamber devolved a tempest of snarled objections and flared tempers, a cacophony of dissent that clawed at the fringes of my resolve. “You have no right!” someone shouted above the tumult, making me scoff.But Elroy, magnificent and fierce, responded before I could speak. His voice was a
I felt my resolve firm. Elroy was right—the council did not hold the power, and it was time for them to face it. I nodded, took a deep breath, and pushed open the doors.The council members' angry faces greeted us, their voices rising in a cacophony of demands and accusations. But as I stepped into
A thunderous pounding on the door jolted me from Elroy's embrace. My stomach flipped unpleasantly; we’d known the council would move fast, but I’d thought we’d at least get through the first commercial break before they rattled our door.I locked eyes with my Mate, a grim and wordless conversation p
Elroy's jaw clenched, his eyes flashing with a mixture of concern and anger. "Olivia," he said softly, taking my hands in his. "You're safe now. He can't hurt you anymore."I shook my head, the dread spreading through me like poison. "But don't you see? If it could happen to me - an Alpha woman who
It wasn’t any easier to listen to the second time around.“I always thought Pete was just stoic,” Ines's voice quavered as she began her story, “maybe a little socially stunted at worst. I didn’t think he was bad.”She explained how she’d always been told it was her duty to get married and give a ma
My heart raced as I stared at the blank television screen, hands clammy with nervous sweat. Any moment now, Ines would appear, ready to reveal the painful truths that had been kept hidden for so long. Beside me on the plush sofa, Elroy's leg bounced with barely contained anxiety.We were both terrif
We were Mates, after all. We weren’t going anywhere.Elroy didn’t speak again until we were sitting at our dining table, the gentle clink of silverware against fine china filled the dining room as we settled into our meal. The flickering candlelight cast a warm glow across the table, softening the e
I rubbed my eyes, bent over yet another dusty old book with writing too small to for comfort. This section of the library was rarely used and it showed, but there was nowhere else I could find more about Eclipse’s history with Ravencrest.Rita’s testimony brought up a thousand questions. We couldn’t
“The woman—the Ravencrest person who gave me the information—told me it would distract everyone from the actual report. It would become a whole political issue and people would focus on that instead of on what the report said about Luna Olivia. That made sense to me, so I pretended I’d done the rese
