Alexa feels a bit relaxed after jumping into the river.
By now, Adele had come out of her shock about knowing that she was in heat. "No wonder I feel so hot."
Alexa grunts, "Now you know."
"Why did you have to run away as if the room is on fire."
"Are you actually so dumb, or just trying to piss me off, because right now I am not in the mood."
Adele thinks about it and realizes that the other wolves, specially unmated male wolves, could sense her in heat and would be unable to control themselves. She could feel Alexa was agitated and decides not to annoy her more. With the absence of their mate, even she had started to get uncomforta
The following day, Adele woke up in a different room. It was entirely made of wood, even the walls, and the ceiling. She was alone here and was wearing a long shirt. It smelled of Liam. Adele recalled the events of the previous night and blushed. Alexa couldn't stop herself and said, " I know; it was sensual; I would do it again and again." Adele looks at herself in the mirror and notices the mark on both sides of her neck. Both were moon-shaped, one slightly bigger than the other. The mark was in deep black, and it looked as if it is a tattoo etched on her skin. She moves her fingers across the mark and feels an acute surge of desire through her entire body. She was aroused again and ached to be with her mates. Adele goes out of the room and looks around but couldn't find her mates anywhere. She goes out and realizes she was in a wooden cabin in the forest. She then hears a playful howl at a distance and sees two giant
After completing his work, Chris was back at the cafe to pick Adele. He parked his car just in front of the restaurant and saw Adele sitting with a girl through the restaurant's glass. As he was about to enter inside, someone calls for him. Chris turns around and sees it was Archer." What are you doing here?" Archer asks Chris." I came here with my mate," Chris replies casually."Mate? When did you find your mate? Why didn't you tell me?" Archer was surprised." A month back at the wedding party at Silverlake pack," says Chris.Archer recalls that day and realizes Chris had left that party before meeting Archer; now he knows why because he was busy with his mate." Then what about your relationship with Liam?" questions Archer." You don't have to worry about that," spats Chris. Chris never liked anybody meddling into his personal affairs."Anyways, what are you doing here?" He asks Archer.Arche
Chris didn't mean to, but he had started to resent Adele. He got nightmares wherein he imagined himself in his dad's place and Adele in his mom's, reliving the same agony and pain his dad had to go through. Chris stayed away from Adele to avoid getting angry at her and do something he would regret later.Liam usually did nothing to go against Chris, so even though he wanted to clarify the situation with Adele, he couldn't. When he recalled the past incidents, he realized he couldn't risk Chris's safety for his own benefits.Now that their pups will be born soon, he should be happy instead of sulking about his mate. He, too, decided to stay away from Adele to avoid giving in to his mate instincts.Chris and Liam were always together, and the pack members noticed them ignoring their mate. This led to various speculations. Some said Chris and Liam fought with Adele, whereas a few said they just used her to have a pup, and now that she w
The painful howl of a wolf and the shattering sounds of the window glass were heard throughout the Packhouse.Liam abruptly got up from his seat. " Adele seems to be upset. We should go after her."Liam was about to shift into his wolf, but Chris didn't move from his place. " Why are you just sitting there? Let's go," says Liam, annoyed." I think we should give her some space," replies Chris nonchalantly." Space? Are you serious? We can think about that later, but right now, we should go and check her. What if she's injured?"Chris was still hesitant, so Liam insisted, " For God's sake, she's pregnant, Chris."Once Chris realizes Adele being preg
Chris couldn't sleep the entire night. Various things were going around in his mind. First of all, the unexpected attack of the rogues and mainly Adele trying to save him from the silver dagger. Was she concerned about him, or did she want to prove something? Chris thought about his Mom and all the times she was so concerned about his father and him, but what was the result? In the end, everything was fake for an ulterior motive. The more Chris thought about it, the more he felt there would be no way Adele would be concerned for him. Instead, she was angry at him as he had told her openly about his feelings for her. Obviously, she wanted to show him how good she was, and in doing that, she didn't even care about his child. The following day, Adele woke up and found herself alone in a hospital room. She got up groggily and felt no pain; her wound was already healed. She was thinking about how she landed in a hospital when she
Flashback: 15 years ago at the Blackmoon packIt was midnight, and a 10-year-old boy with pitch-black hair sleeping soundly on his bed woke up at a low creaking sound. Though he was merely 10, he had an acute sense of hearing because he was a werewolf. He got up from the bed, suddenly alert of his surroundings. The room was dark without a speck of light, but he could smell someone's presence and that someone was definitely a werewolf.Chris shook his head and signed, " Not again, Mom."" Sh**! I wanted to surprise you," said Chris's Mom, Clara." No cursing, honey."Clara ignored her mate Shawn and hugged her son tightly. " Happy Birthday Chrissy."Chris whined. " Don't call me Chrissy, Mom. It sounds so girly, and I am a big boy now,"" How much ever big you are, for me, you will always be my little Chrissy," said Clara.Chris groaned again, so Clara held up her hands and said, " Ok, ok, Chris."S
Flashback continued...As soon as Clara left, there was complete silence for a few seconds. The forest was illuminated by the bright light of the full moon. The rogues were already dead on the floor, whereas the vampire Shawn was fighting with escaped into the forest so fast as if he vanished into thin air.Matthew and Shawn were immediately by Chris and Liam's side. Both were anxious as Clara and Lea were not with them." Where's Clara and Lea?" Shawn asked Chris." A vampire took Aunt Lea, so Mom went after him," says Chris pointing towards the direction Clara had just left.Matthew looked scared for his mate, but Shawn assured him, " We will get them back."
Flashback continued...At a Mansion, hidden in the depths of a dark forest, a vampire dragged a frail-looking woman to a room. Her name was Sybil, and she was a witch who was caught by two vampires and brought to this Mansion in the middle of nowhere.Another vampire sat on a high chair near the fireplace, but Sybil's attention was not on him but on the moonstone placed on a table in front of him.She gasped, seeing it, and exclaimed," How did you get that? Did you get hold of Mr. Black? I-Is s-she free?"" It didn't work. She is still trapped. Did you lie to me?" spat the vampire Daniel who sat on the high chair." Then how come the moonstone is here? Nobody except the descendent of the Black family could touch the enchanted rock protecting the moonstone, " said Sybil." Our plan was foolproof. We forced Shawn Black to come to the cave and move the rock. I even shot him with an arrow so that his blood woul
