"During a match, two Lycans will shift into their beast to fight, but there are times when they fight in their human forms using their physical strength and fists," Lucian explained to her. “As for you, little wolf. You’re going to have to shift in your wolf form to fight against Scarlett.”The forest was calm; the air moving gently as an indication of good weather and an earthy smell coming from the trees, lake, and healthy soil. She didn’t pay attention to such things until her wolf got unlocked. Her hearing, as well as her smelling senses, had become heightened, and she could feel the strength and power running through her bones.She listened to Lucian as he moved back and forth, his arms were on his back as he explained everything she needed to know about the upcoming match. Emily stored all the details in her mind, especially the ones that could help her defeat Scarlett in her beast form."In order to win the match, you need to learn how to fight not just as a wolf but also in yo

Two lycans encircled her, sneering at her like she was their nemesis or a prey they wanted to tear apart. Emily held her breath as she stepped back. Even though she knew it was only Camille and Laura who wanted to train her, she could not get away from the sudden fear filling her chest.However, her only hope was to beat them, at the very least to convince them and herself that she was already prepared for the upcoming match.Not far away from them were Lucian and Tyler, who were watching them intently.From the corner of her eye, she could see Lucian folding his arms against his chiseled chest. The Beast Alpha had no shirt on, and was sporting this hot male model look, with his hair moving to the side because of the wind blowing on it. That made him even more of a stunner. His gaze was focused on her every move, and he seemingly expected her to give the best attack or defense that would make him a little proud. Otherwise, she would be punished."Your heartbeat tells me you’re scared,

She forced her eyes open as she felt that someone was shaking her body. Emily hadn’t recalled how she was able to go back to her bedroom the night before. Frowning, she saw Laura’s familiar face, and that made her sit upright."Laura?""You’re such a sleepyhead. We need to prepare for the match now!" Laura said.Emily grumbled as she heard the word "match". A sudden rush of panic went through her, and she instantly got off the bed. Her gaze went to the side table where there was a digital clock, and she realized it was only seven o’clock in the morning."I didn’t know that the match would be this early," she said, scratching her head in disbelief.Laura folded her arms and gave her a wide-eyed look, an indication that she was not kidding when she said they had to prepare already. Wincing, Emily just nodded her head and immediately ran towards the bathroom to take a bath and wash her hangover away.Had she known that the match would be happening in the morning, she would have declined

“Your second-chance mate’s wolf looked so brutal earlier…”Lucian chose to ignore Tyler’s comment behind him. They were on their way to join his parents and the Elders in a pack meeting. He had to order Laura to take care of Emily in the meantime, as the atmosphere was still heated due to what happened to Scarlett. Even though for him it was normal that someone would end up getting hurt during a match, the Elders, as well as his parents, did not seem to like what had happened because it was Scarlett who had been hurt badly.He pushed the double doors of the main chamber, where he saw all the members of the council, the Elders, Scarlett’s parents, and his parents. Their attention turned to him, and all he did was give them a blank expression.“I don’t understand why there is a need for a pack meeting,” he remarked coldly as he walked to the chair on the center platform. Tyler stood next to him.David, his father, growl echoed in the chamber, making the other members of the council trem

Emily could feel that her entire body was melting down. Lucian’s touch on her bare skin weakened her. He devoured her into kisses, like a beast that had been deprived of food, like she was his most prized prey. They walked into her bedroom without breaking their kiss. Each step she took made her want to fall to the cold floor. She never expected Lucian to kiss her. It was only wishful thinking, a dream she knew would not come true, but now Lucian had broken such thoughts. Her hands were still wrapped around his neck. She moaned softly when Lucian bit her lower lip to part it from the upper, and used it as his chance to enter her mouth and taste her even more. The fire that was burning her body became more intense. It was triggering something within her that she wanted to ask for more. Her tears fell as she kissed him like it was the only precious thing she’d love to do, and in her mind, she was praying that the Moon Goddess would finally allow her to have a happy life… and it would
