Leah POV Damian kicked the wolf away from me and they continued fighting. Who were they and where did they come from? My hands were trembling. “You need to shift if you want to be able to fight them all,” I told him and he grunted. They were giving Damian a tough time and I noticed it was because they were in their wolf form. Damian still wore his trousers so I guess that was why he did not want to shift. He twisted the neck of the wolf and shifted into his wolf form. He howled loudly in the sky and then all the wolves forgot about me and gave him all their attention. Damian was so strong. He fought all of them without pausing. I could not believe it. After a few minutes, the wolves started running away in fear, whimpering as they left. I ran to Damian and held onto his fur. It was coated with blood. His wolf gestured at me and I climbed him, gripping his fur with all my strength and we started running. I could not remember the last time I had run in my wolf form. Damian'

Damian POV She was so stubborn. I controlled the urge to bend her over my knee and smacked her ass until it turned red. How could she be so reckless? I had never been so scared for someone, not even Stephanie. “I… I… I thought I could throw him off his feet. I just wanted to know the one behind the recurring attacks today,” she grumbled, looking like a lost puppy. At least puppies listened to their masters. I shook my head, picking up my clothes which I had taken off just before I shifted into my wolf. Her eyes trailed down my body without shame and I could see her nod in appreciation as she saw my body. Just for effect, I flexed my packs and muscles as I wore my shirt. She licked her lips seductively and once again I was drawn back to the first time I tasted her lips. I would love to do it again but this was not the place. “You do not have your wolf yet,” I reminded her. “Do not try to fight anyone for now. You're not as strong as you used to be,” I told her. She sighed but ag

Leah POV I loved the way he looked at me. It made me feel powerful. I felt in control. His fingers touched my face, tracing it down to my neck and I shivered. “Is this enough for you to keep it?” I whispered. If someone had asked me if I was ever going to do this just to make Damian keep the gift I bought for him, I would have bluntly denied it. But here I was, kneeling in front of him. “Yes, that's enough. You're being a really obedient girl and it suits you more,” he told me and I frowned at his words. What did that mean? “No need to look upset, I'm not trying to scold you,” he placed his thumb in between my eyebrows and smoothened the lines on them. I smacked his hands away and stood up. “It's late, I need to go,” I got ready to leave. I had spent more than enough time here. I did not want to be caught by Stephanie, who might be here anytime soon. “I never told you to stand,” he raised an eyebrow. “I know but it's late. Someone could..” “I don't care. I'm the Alpha a

Damian POV Connor was sending me messages again and again that I had to ask him to stop sending them. I was already feeling bad about what happened last night, I didn't want him telling me everything she was saying or how angry she looked. Her anger was understandable. I was already disappointed with myself. Why did I not stop Stephanie when she tried to kiss me? If I did, Stephanie wouldn't be in this meeting with me, trying to appease this stranger. So, what could I do? Of course, I should not be having a relationship with two women, and despite wanting to start something with Anne, I could not let go of Stephanie. Did that mean I was using her? I had been all over my head thinking about it all night. I didn't know what to do. I knew I should speak to Anne and make her understand but she would not even want to speak with me. She was already wary of me and now, Connor tells me the sound of my name made her almost lose her shit. “So what are you saying? We need someone to

Leah POV His name was John. I finally got to know the name of the technician and he was a blacksmith too. I didn't know what Damian's plans were but I was proud and happy to be able to help. I imagined how happy he would be when we brought John to him. He has been going everywhere searching for one, meanwhile, I found one just by staying in the pack. Wait, no. I shook my head. Why was I thinking about how happy he would be? It was none of my business, I told myself. It was not my job to make him happy especially when he has not been making me happy. What was wrong with me? Acting and thinking like this could make people think I was in love with him. The thought alone made me feel butterflies in my stomach which was strange. Damian was a temptation I had to resist. I had to focus on creating a lot of gems so I could take as much as I wanted and leave this pack. I won't be ruled by anyone. “What are you thinking about?” Connor asked, pulling me away from my thoughts. We were
