I had been remarkably silent since we returned to the room, and Eris couldn't help but ask me, "Snow, are you okay? I am aware of the pain you are experiencing at this moment."

I chose not to answer her and just kept talking to myself about what I was going through. I don't even understand myself, but Eris has been right, not just in her assumption but also in her assertion that I am in misery for the reason that we both know, but I find it hard to admit. And the most important question here is: Why do I feel this way?

I have no understanding of precisely why or how, but I am experiencing the same pain as I did when Phoenix betrayed and rejected me. I went on to think to myself, "How can the Moon Goddess possibly give me a second chance mate, considering that I haven't even consented to the rejection from my first mate, Phoenix, and for what reason would she give me another prospect who would almost certainly reject me again?"

Eris said again, "Snow, don't lie to me because I can feel

    He called out, "Let's talk, Snow," as she opened the door, and at that point, without waiting for consent, he walked in, shut the door behind him, and left Snow in complete disbelief at the actions he had done.As to why he happens to be in front of Snow, Blaze is equally perplexed by the actions he is taking. He wasn't supposed to be here, and he certainly shouldn't come up to her and start a conversation without any obvious cause.He showed up, however, and he intended to have a conversation with her about what happened during the earlier scene they had with Cleo. Even though she is not asking anything from him, he still felt the need to clarify the matter to her because he saw the pain in her face when she left them.Just standing in front of Blaze has Snow slowly losing her mind. The pull is simply far too strong for her to turn a blind eye to it. She seriously does not want to believe what her wolf has been claiming about the man in front of her being their second chance at findin

    "Where the hell is Blaze, Quen? I've been looking for him, but he is nowhere around." Cleo has been relentlessly pestering Quen since earlier searching for Blaze, and he is not really enjoying having to face her or talk to her.Quen, in return, is making an earnest attempt to be patient, but with Cleo, no one can ever be patient. "Exactly how many times do I have to explain to you that I have no idea where the fuck he is? Why don't you go and look for him outside instead of bothering me here?"He doesn't even know what his friend finds in her, except perhaps the manner in which she performs in bed. However, that doesn't change the fact that she is a pain to all of their men."You are obviously lying to my face, Quen! It is unlikely that you don't know anything at all about his whereabouts!""I really don't know!" He answered as he tried to keep the frown off his face. "Can't you see? I just woke up, and it's all because of you. So for the life of me, Cleo, leave me alone because I real

    As soon as he entered Blaze's office, Quen's reverberating voice could be heard stating, "Finally, I've got to see you here! Where the hell have you been again? Do you realize how long I have been looking for you? Your girlfriend has been nagging me to try to find you."He responded, "Who?" without even looking up to face Quen."Snow."As soon as he heard the name his friend had brought up, he glanced up from the piles of work he was working on and inquired, "What? She is looking for me?"With a chuckle, Quen blurted out, "Asshole! Last time I checked, Snow was not your girlfriend. More like Cleo is looking for you."His friend's ridiculing did not sit very well with him; he immediately grabbed the sheets of paper in front of him and threw them at him, saying, "Jerk! Why are you even here? Can't you see I am busy with tons of work while all you do is piss me off?" He truly doesn't want to be having this conversation with Quen because he knows he would need to provide reasons for where

    Ever since she returned to the room, Snow has been pacing back and forth while in deep thought. She had been obviously stressed out regarding a lot of things for the past few days, and the earlier scene that unfolded seemed to have done little to lessen the burden she was carrying. She doesn't really know what drove her to behave in the ways that she did, but most of the time she is unable to even try to stop and control herself.Eris, feeling the weight on her shoulder, asks her, "Snow, are you alright?" given that she can't really blame her for the way she is behaving and that she is aware that Snow hasn't been herself recently. Both of them are venturing into an unfamiliar environment, and everything about this is foreign to them."I don't know what's happening with me, Eris. I am starting to lose it. Maybe we should just leave and go back home.""Don't you want to know what's really going on with Blaze?"Her wolf's query has been enough to silence her for a short while. Of course s

    Blaze's nose was filled with Snow's exquisite scent as soon as he stepped into her room, and once again, he started to lose control of everything. For a split second, he closed his eyes, wanting to take control of the circumstances that he was in. He came here to have a conversation with her and urge that she leave their place immediately, but he lacks the strength to do so now that he has to deal with her face-to-face.When he opened his eyes, he saw that she had been staring intently back at him, and those stares were enough to give him goosebumps. Before he had a chance to compose himself and stop himself from doing anything stupid, his mind had other plans for that, so he pulled her in close to him and immediately gave her a needy but passionate kiss.And as expected, she is giving him such an intense kiss back, just like they do every time they come across themselves caught in this circumstance. He wrapped his arms around her waist as he switched their places and pinned her to the

    "Blaze, where have you been again? Why do you always have to do this? Why do you have the habit of leaving me? I've been around looking for you everywhere, but I can't find you, and nobody knows where you are." Cleo instinctively enveloped him in her arms as soon as he walked into the room, and he was making an earnest attempt to keep from his rash actions and not lose his composure about the woman in front of her.He disentangles himself from Cleo's embrace and heads straight in the direction of the couch, ready to do what he had planned to do. He doesn't want to drag this on longer than necessary. He made a mistake when he asked her to come, so he needed to correct that and let her leave."We need to talk."Cleo is starting to have doubts about Blaze's intention for this sudden talk based on the tone of his voice. She is unable to overcome the sense of unease that, whatever this is, it has something to do with that bitch Snow, who has been irritating her since she first came across h

    "So, like, what's going on with us now? And I am specifically referring to what you and Blaze are right now. Aside from the fact that I am considering you to be clandestine make-out buddies, what else is there between you two in the real world? Is it some kind of relationship between you two now? Does this mean that you are not just believing in me but also accepting the fact that he is our mate?"I made the choice to go for an early morning stroll because all I wanted to do was get away from thinking about exactly the things that Eris is asking me now. However, as always, my wolf had other ideas, because she started to question me as soon as I was enjoying myself in tranquility.Once more, she grumbled into my thoughts, "Don't pretend to be deaf, Snow; I know you heard me. But to be honest, though, I know you are confused about this, and I am also as baffled as you about what is really the truth about Blaze and us."All I could think to say to her, with an exasperated sigh, was, "I ha

    After having been able to pacify the two ladies that were engaged in an argument that turned physical, and after Blaze confronted Snow, the two of them quickly headed back to their home office. Once inside, Quen furiously exclaimed, "What the fucking hell was that?" to him.He responded with a flippant tone, "What do you mean, what was that?" making a concerted effort to tune out whatever it was that his friend was trying to say to him. "Why do you seem so surprised with what I did? I merely called out Snow for her behavior; in essence, there really is no issue here. Much like Cleo, she doesn't have the right to behave as though she is the owner of the house when in fact she is only an unwanted guest.""Bullshit!" said Quen, narrowing his eyes at him. "I am baffled by just how awful you are! You really are a piece of crap. Do you have a sudden loss of vision? You witnessed the horrific events that took place out there.""Precisely what I was saying, Quen. Having witnessed what transpir

"There is someone who wants to see you."Phoenix and Snow are taking time off from their pack duties in order to have a special quiet moment together, as spending time with each other is essential for them to further nurture their bond, but the manner in which Tank spoke explicitly suggests that something critical has come up, and as the alpha and luna, they need to take time to listen to what he has to say and prioritize the pack."What is it, Tank?

    "Did everything go well?" Alpha Cohen Saunders questioned Ryder as soon as the Black Knight pack's fighter arrived at his office. "Is Snow alright in there? Do we need to send in people from our pack to ensure my daughter's safety? I don't want to take any chances at all, Ryder. We must ensure Snow's safety at all costs.""No need to worry about anything at all, Alpha. Sky River Pack accepted Snow as their Luna wholeheartedly. She is doing alright and is, in fact, enjoying being welcomed by the whole pack. The festivity is still ongoing as we speak, and she seems to be enjoying every moment of it," Ryder stated.

    "Luna, it's about time." As Phoenix called out these words to me, my heart started to pound hard in my chest. I felt somewhat anxious about what was about to happen next. And as if he's reading what was in my thoughts again, he said, "Hey, everything's going to be fine, my love," in a whisper, wrapping his arms around my waist and trailing his lips on my neck all the way through my mark. "They'll like you. Trust me that they won't have any violent reactions when they meet you.""I don't know. I don't want to feel this way, but I am really feeling a bit scared right now." And this is me forgetting that I am a warrior because I am admitting to myself and to my mate my fear at the moment. "What if they don't accept me as their luna?"My mate smiled at me as he caressed my cheeks in an attempt to pacify me. "They'll like you, Snow. And they've been excited to meet

    Snow gasped out to her wolf all of a sudden, "He's in pain and he's dying. I don't know what's happening to him." She has been feeling uneasy since earlier; she has even tried to disregard the negative thoughts that come with the fear that is building inside of her, but at this moment, she can no longer put it behind her because her sense of anxiety is becoming stronger over time. "We need to see him. We need to know what's happening."Even without speaking names, her wolf recognizes who she is making reference to. And Eris is adamant about agreeing with her, simply because she is aware it will get them into trouble again, not just with the pack, but especially with their alpha mate."I don't feel anything anymore, Snow; whatever attachment I used to have with him vanished after our alpha mate marked us." Eris is trying to break it to her gently that she won't

    "Argh! Bullshit! Ouch! What the hell is this?" Blaze's tormented voice reverberated throughout the room. What could possibly be happening to him again? "Quen! Fuck it! I'm in so much pain!"He has no idea what is happening to him again; nevertheless, he feels as if he is about to die any minute now. But in this moment of distress, all he can think about is Snow, his mate. The pain he feels right now is far greater than the pain that he felt when Snow told him that he had been rejected. He doesn't want to think about it, but is this somewhat related to the woman he loves? Is what happening to him because of Snow again?"Quen! Blythe!" He cried out again. He requires help since he is gradually losing himself in the pit of darkness that is slowly engulfing him as an effect of his distress. "Help! Somebody help me!"He
