Denied for 18 years, Grace finally got the approval of her father, Alpha Dean, to take a vacation. She had never left the safety of the Black Hallow Pack. What her father didn't know, she never had plans to return once her vacation was over. Grace had a secret that even her father didn't know about, and never planned on telling him. However, any plans she thought she had came to a quick halt. Grace had a knack for getting into unfavorable situations and that included her first night visiting the Boone Valley Pack. The bar fight might not have been her fault but the last thing she expected was to be handcuffed. To make matters worse, the person that came to collect them from the human police was her mate. How will her mate react to meeting her for the first time, while being handcuffed? Will he rescue her from the claws of her father? The biggest question, can he keep her safe once her secret gets out?
ดูเพิ่มเติม“Fuck yeah!” Callie let go of Damon’s hand and helped wrapped it around my body.“What do you think, Damon? Will this piss him off?”“That will do the trick.” Damon said with complete boredom. “Go try it on.” Callie pushed me towards the changing room. “Just one?” A lady asked, looking at my hands.“Yeah.” Grabbing a one number, she walked to me a room and unlocked it for me, before walking away.Not sure why I was nervous, but I got undressed and put the dress on. Obviously, I needed a different bra, but it was amazing. The rhinestone halter top straps came to the side, and the top was tighter. There was extra fabric that bunched just below all my cleavage. Staying tight, the left side split open at the top of my hip. Four rhinestone straps held the fabric together that angled just over the important parts. The strappy heels would be perfect with this dress.“Grace? I got more dresses for you!” Callie yelled. Opening the door, I walked out to show her.“Fuck....” Callie’s eyes went
“What do you mean?” I asked.“You seemed distracted at the restaurant and just overly on edge.”“Yeah.” I didn’t really have an answer to that. “As much as I love you all, but can you please drop it and let us figure out whatever there is to figure out? I’d rather not have an audience.”“I suppose, but being as you are our future Luna, I can’t promise we won’t be protective.” Travis said.“Exactly. We can’t lose another one.” Kyle said, looking at the ground. “Everyone leave so I can speak with Grace alone.” Ethan demanded.I could see a few wanted to argue, but didn’t as they walked inside. “I’m sorry I blindsided you.”“What the fuck was that? What happened to not telling anyone?” I was back to being angry.“I saw how quick you were to hug Rif and I didn’t like it. I knew the only way to keep others away is to publicly claim you. I still have shit to work on, but this way, everyone knows you’re mine.” Ethan just stood there, looking at me. “At what point do you stop thinking abou
“Oh um, maybe if it was anyone else but Rif and Grace have been like brother and sister for years. I wasn’t as close to Rif, but I grew up with him too. There has been nothing romantic between them. Completely friendship.”“She isn’t lying. He is like my brother.” I shrugged as Rif nodded.“We fight like cats and dogs. I’ve never thought of her that way,” Rif said as lunch was being served. They put a variety of cold cut sandwiches on the table with different fruits, pastas and chips. “Oh good! We aren’t late!” Callie came running up with Damon. “Now that we are all here, let’s eat!” Alpha John said.“How long is your flight?” I asked Rif.“Three hours.” Rif swallowed his food. “Not bad, but I did order that doll for you.” Grabbing a chip, I tossed it at him. “Kids!” Alpha James was trying not to laugh.“He started it!” I said in my defense. I could feel Ethan’s gaze on me from across the table. I tried hard to ignore him.“Travis, I guess you’re off on the bodyguard on shopping.”“
“Doubtful, an alpha female isn’t going to mate with anyone other than an alpha or beta. You know that.”“I just hate leaving you like this.” “Stella, you need to focus more on your new life. You are going to kill it being a Luna and I need you to give Rif hell for me.”“But...”“No buts, I’m a big girl and I just want you to be happy. You deserve it. This is everything you have ever wanted.” “We better get going.” Axon was standing with Natalia beside him.“Okay. Will you be there to say bye?” Stella asked me.“Of course. I’ll be there to eat lunch.” I said.“I need to head back as well. Conner has something to do for dad and I have to meet with some finance person.” Travis said with a sigh.“Okay, see you all!” Callie said as she and Damon laid down in the towels. Everyone was gone except for us four. I could finally speak freely and not try to cover things up. “Callie, your dumbass brother thinks I need to go on a date tonight.” “Oh, where are you guys going?”“What? You’re supp
“Here.” Callie handed me a chair as she set up hers. They were the old school folding lawn chairs that required you to fold completely before laying it completely flat and then raise it to your desired height. If you went too far, you started over. Laying a towel on it, I was about to sit down when Callie yelled. “No! You need to get wet first. Take a quick dip so when they come, you are more attractive.” We heard the sounds of the other carts. “Hurry up!” Rolling my eyes. I took my slip off and did as she asked. My nerves were high, as I only went in far enough and then sat down. The water felt amazing, but I was done being in it. Walking out, I was able to lay down and adjust myself as more people arrived. Lifting one leg up, I raised one hand above my head. My chair was raised just enough that I wasn’t flat.“You girls got out here fast.” Travis said as he laid out his towel.“I wanted to soak up all the sun.” I said, without looking at him. “I’ll get the drinks in the shade, bu
Rif was trying not to laugh. “Thank you for that, Stella, and I wouldn’t call it a panic attack. I merely became unsteady on my feet.” “You are afraid of flying?” Damon asked, also trying to hide his smile.“Okay, first off, wolves are not supposed to be in the sky. Second, I wasn’t afraid of flying. It’s the five minutes I have to think about how my body is going to break you when I hit the ground.” “I think I can order a blow-up doll for you to cuddle if that will help?” Rif stopped trying to hide his laughter. I stood up and glared at Rif. “Yeah, well, you are afraid of the water! I bet you don’t even get into the ocean!” Rif stopped laughing. “Hey! That is so different!”“Does baby Rif need floaties to get by this morning?”“OKAY!” Alpha James yelled.“See, we could never be mates.” I said to Stella as I angrily stomped off as I heard her laugh. Callie and Natalia walked into the kitchen as I was about to hit the door. “What’s going on?” Callie looked at the laughing table an
“Oh, really?” My face lit up.“Yup, Vincent told me you would be here today, and we missed your last few birthdays, so this is to make up for those.” He pulled out a small box. My mouth dropped open as I looked at it. My hands shook as they opened it. James has never been stingy on his birthday presents. The most beautiful tear dropped sapphire on a silver, dainty chain stared up at me. “This is....”“One of a kind.” Rif said as he dropped his arm around me. “I picked it out and designed it myself.”“Thank you! I love it!” My eyes filled with water from my gratitude. Turning, I gave him another hug.“Ha! Told you, dad she would cry. You owe me $20.”“You bet on me!” I faked being angry as I playfully slapped him. “Here, I’ll help you put it on.” Rip took it and got it out of the box. Turning around, Rif put the necklace around my neck before hooking it. It sat perfectly right under my collar bones. “Really brings out your eyes,” Alpha James said. “Thank you so much. I absolutely l
“It is. I like to come out here when I am stressed.” Ethan was looking up at the moon. “Why did you want to bring me out here?” He walked, trying not to touch me in so I was confused. Far different from an hour ago. “To talk.” Ethan said simply. However, he didn’t follow it up.“When will that start?” I asked after we walked another 100 yards. I was feeling rather anxious about what he wanted to say. “So impatient.” Ethan looked at me and smiled.“I just rather not prolong it if you want to reject me.”“After tonight, you still expect me to reject you?” Ethan stopped walking.“I don’t really know what to expect from you. You only touched me when everyone wasn’t watching and then only in front of people that knew. It’s not like you are making me feel like you want me.”“I haven’t figured that out either.” Ethan started walking again.“You don’t have much time to figure that out.” I said with a slight edge.“You need to understand. I watched my dad almost died when my mom died. Just b
“She is good.” I said back. She needed as she took a sip. Ethan had come back to the table by the time we arrived. Damon and Ethan were in a quiet conversation when we set the glasses down. They stopped talking, but Ethan moved the stool over for me. However, he put his leg up with his hand on my lower back.“What are you boys talking about?” Callie asked.“They came and got the rogues.” Damon said with a shrug. “That was fast.” She replied. Ethan just shrugged. I watched Damon look at Callie before smiling and glancing at me. I had a feeling she just told him about our bet. “What’s the plan for tomorrow?” Damon asked out loud, but it felt like it was directed towards Ethan. “Alpha James will be here around 8am. Rif will be with him. We have a meeting and then nothing. They will be staying the night so I assumed they want a beach day or at least Rif will want to get out for a while,” Ethan said.“Is it just them coming?” I asked.“His beta might come. What’s his name, Alex?” Ethan
