MITCH POV
Spruce myself up. Spruce myself up. I repeat it over and over as I look at my reflection in the mirror. My sandy-colored hair could use a trim, and my eyebrows could be tamer......But as far as everything else...I have no idea how to improve it. My nose is on the larger side. My jaw isn't as chiseled as some of the other male wolves. I do have height on my side, but my muscle mass is low compared to most wolves. Compared to humans, I'm okay, but around other werewolves, I'm nothing special.
Mitch- Hey Louise, could you please let Lorraine know I will be by at two to take her on a picnic.
Louise- Sure!
Mitch- Thanks.
I grin at Louise's enthusiasm. At least she is rooting for me. I have three hours to get a haircut, wax, and purchase some food...And if I rush, I can grab her some flowers.
I strip out of my clothes
LORRAINE POV rated R"Oh, umm. I'm pretty boring, to be honest. I was going to school before....well.... being brought here. I didn't have my career chosen, but I liked the classes. I enjoy playing volleyball, and I like to read," I say while thinking about how much my life has changed in under a week. I went from being undecided about everything to being tied to this man... Tied to him for life? I wish I had a freaking say. It wouldn't be that bad if I had at least been given a choice. But I wasn't. Sometimes having too many choices is problematic. Like in school.....I could choose anything, and it had overwhelmed me.....but I still want a say. "Umm, I...Lorraine, if you want to reject me, you can...," he whispers, and my head snaps in his direction. "What," I ask with wide eyes. He gulps, and I watch his eyes fill with absolute heartbreak.
MITCH POV Only one word seems to come to mind whenever I see my mate, flawless. Whether I look at her while she is talking, laughing, or even scowling. The woman exudes absolute perfection. "Are you paying attention to me boy," Luther practically growls, breaking my ogling? "Oh..no, I'm sorry, sir," I apologize quickly, trying to refocus my mind on yet another lecture. He scowls, and Ethan discreetly smirks in my direction. But I honestly can't help it, and I know Ethan is as bad as I am with Miranda. I still can't get over the fact she accepted me. I honestly didn't believe it until her emotions started hitting me. Love and happiness.....all the time. Which mirrors what I feel every day. "Well, you need to pay attention. I know how you werewolves are, and my babies aren't ready for motherhood," Luther snaps, and Heath growls in our head.
LORRIANE POV I twist and turn in the mirror while smoothing my silky mermaid-style dress. I absolutely adore how the material hugs my curves, and I can't wait for Mitch to see me. He is going to lose his mind! "Better get going, Raine," I whisper to myself before leaving my room.I get to the room Miranda stayed in last night and take a deep breath. As I enter, Miranda meets my eyes, and I feel my heart squeeze as I look at my big sister in her wedding dress, all dolled up."Look at your baby momma," Miranda whispers, and Mom spins around instantly. She gasps when she sees me, and I immediately begin to cry simultaneously as I laugh. Mom looks us over back and forth... Back and forth with tears streaming down her face."Are you ready," she asks us after a few minutes of tears and tissues.I smile wide before answering
The Lycan Prince's Forever is the sixth book in The Riverstone Series. Available on GoodNovel ETHAN POV Kratos growls, and I snarl after Father pins us yet again. He rolls off of me and jumps to his feet with ease. I sit up and watch the two hundred and something-year-old man grab a towel with open frustration. My Father's tattoos glisten as he wipes the sweat from his never-aging skin, and my anger towards him only grows. I want to yell and slam my fist through the wall, but I don't. I contain my anger at his indifference as I have done for years. Growing up, I was never my father Jackson's favorite child. That was my older sister Sasha's role. And now that she has passed, he treats me like a houseplant he has to water. He still trains me and gives me an occasional smile. He still ack
ETHAN'S POV "Thank you, Louise," I say as our main omega lays out my tux and leaves. I feel terrible about what I am about to do, but I can't force myself to dance and be merry. I will make an appearance at my birthday/mating ball, but that's it. I will be slipping out as soon as the announcements for our guests are over with. I need to focus my mind and get ready for being crowned. My mate will appear when it is time. I'm honestly in no hurry. Would finding her be amazing? Yes..., but I don't have high hopes of that happening. I doubt I will find my mate so early in my eternal life. If I were the Goddess, I wouldn't allow anyone to meet their mate before they were ready, and I don't feel as if I am ready. "Knock, knock....," Father Jason says as he opens my door and enters with my other two parents. "My baby boy," Mom says as she enters the room and walks dire
ETHAN POV Kratos eases our body back into human form, and I stretch before getting dressed in the clothes we keep stored at the bunker. After tying the laces to my old tennis shoes, I take off at a jog. My body is still wired with anxiety even though I am starving, so a little jog to find food should help. It isn't often I leave pack grounds. In fact, I don't believe I have entered this town's city limits in over eleven years.Kratos- I want meat! Not fake meat.Ethan- when do you ever want fake meatKratos- you know what I mean. I chuckle at him as I pass a smiling couple. The sun is just setting, and they seem to be heading home from a date of sorts. "Jace, can we go to happy hour please," the female's voice whines as I jog farther down the street. I shake my head as my
ETHAN POVMy fathers pace as my mother stands next to the door with her arms folded. So many emotions are flowing across her face, so I wait. I know they are upset and pleased at the same time.....much like me."Ethan, you left your birthday ball. The last one we will ever share together," my mother finally says, and I nod my head guilty."And while the action led you to your mate...it was still rude and hurtful. We thought you had just decided to take a breather as you have in the past. We didn't even consider that you had run off...I taught you to cloak your scent to escape dangerous situations, not disappear from important family functions," Mom says, and I stand up.I walk across the room and take her hand in mine."For some reason, tonight I had to run. Every instinct I have was screaming for me to leave....and while I am sorry to have hurt your feelings, I am delight
MIRANDA POV "How are you feeling honey," a brunette woman who looks like she is in her early forties asks me as I try to sit up. "Umm, I'm okay. Where am I," I ask while raising my hand to my sore arm. The woman grins at me as another appears from what looks like a restroom carrying a wet washcloth. "You are in Prince Ethan's bedroom. My name is Louise, and her's is Aria. We work in the Royal mansion," the brunette named Louise replies, and flashes of my night hit me. "Oh no, where is Bryan," I ask in a voice barely above a whisper. Louise's eyes darken, and she tilts her head. Aria places the wet rag against my forehead before answering. "He and the males he was with are in the dungeon. The Prince and his fathers will most likely be speaking with them soon," Ar
