SkylarI gripped the doorknob, shutting it lightly behind me. But being honest, I wanted to slam the damn door or maybe take it off its hinge and toss it at Alarick's damn face. Just who the hell does he think he is? I'm an alpha as well now. I demand equal respect. I deserve his respect.If he thinks I'm going to submit or force my people to submit to him because he's going to be protecting my pack, he's got it all wrong. Protection or not, I am sure my pack can defend itself from the rogue king if we had the numbers. The time we were attacked, it was simply because Dad had refused to listen to me. But he's right. I am outnumbered if that rogue king comes by here again. I had already told Dad our walls needed to be reinforced, but he's always wasting the pack's earnings on stupid things. All the expensive clothes he buys for himself and Mom, their expensive getaways, and their constant vacations have my pack in ruins. Maybe Alarick is right: I must strengthen the walls around my per
Alarick’s POVI made my way to Asher and Zane's room. They had been investigating what I asked them yesterday, and I wanted to see if they had anything for me before heading to see Skylar and his dad. It seemed everyone was still asleep, other than the omegas. I could hear all the noise of pans and dishes, knives chopping, and, of course... complaining. "Where is Olivia? Why is she not here yet? Is she still in the dungeons? I swear this girl is always getting into trouble." One of the older omegas says, making me pause. "No, ma'am. We... We overheard Leah last night talking to her friends." "It's LUNA Leah. We need to make sure we all call her like that from now on. Unless you want to end up in the dungeons as well. Now, what about Luna Leah? What did she say now?" she says, scolding the girls. "She said... She said Livie is leaving our pack," the young girl says in a quiver. "What?" the older one responds. I get closer, looking at them as they talk about my mate but staying out o
Livie’s POVThe rest of the morning, Molly, Selene, and I talked. Mostly them, but still. I learned that Rick also lost his mom through a rogue attack. He and Molly were just weeks old when that happened, so they have absolutely no memory of her. If it weren't for pictures his dad kept, they would have never learned what she looked like, but from what Molly tells me, she was beautiful.When we were talking, the omegas came in and brought us breakfast. They tried to talk to me, but Molly warned me not to tell them I was Alarick's mate. They were uncertain if Alpha Morrison could do something against us if he knew. "Trust me, he'll try to use it to his advantage. So until your attachment to this pack is severed, don't say anything." She begged, and well, I had no intention of telling them. No one in this pack has ever been nice to me. If they were trying to make amends because I was leaving, they could keep their apologies. Like Molly said, I don't need them. After we had breakfast, th
Livie’s POVI suddenly fell conscious of myself sitting next to him. He unconsciously (purposely, maybe!) wrapped his hand around my waist and pulled me to him. My shoulder is tucked under his arm as he lifts my chin to look at him. He slowly leaves a feather-like kiss on my lips, making me feel like I was melting. "I've been waiting all morning and afternoon to kiss you again," he whispers, his lips grazing mine and filling me with electricity. "I... M-1, me too." I utter, making his lips pull into a smile. "Now, we haven't had much time to get to know each other. How are you? Did my sister treat you well?" he says, but all I can focus on is the sweet movement of his lips. The sparkle in his ocean-blue eyes and that intoxicating aroma. He smells so good it makes me feel like nirvana. "Uhhuh," I say, making him chuckle. His Adam's apple is playing up and down his throat with every chuckle, and I can't help but stare at it like a dummy. He slowly leans, leaving another feather-like ki
LivieAlarick held his hand out for me as he opened the door. Everyone gasped, murmuring among themselves. At first, I was very self-conscious; I had been used to the silver moon pack, always talking badly in front of me and my back. So it threw me off to see them smile, and I couldn't help but feel happy. I could hear them praising and welcoming Alarick with open arms. "My... She is gorgeous. Just like you said, my boy," the man says in a deep voice as he comes in front of me and cups my face with both hands. He kisses both my cheeks and my forehead. His hands felt so warm and loving. They were strong, rigid, and insensitive but warm and welcoming. Just like Ricky's hands, except Ricky's were exceptional. They held me lovingly, making me feel wanted and protected."Dad, this is Livie. Livie, this is my father, Lucian Dannelly," he says, placing his hand on the small of my back. He vows like a gentleman, making my eyes widen. I had never had someone greet me so correctly. One of the e
Livie’s POVAfter we ate, Alarick showed me around some more, and by the end, he showed me our room. I won't get into it because my mind is still trying to wrap around how gorgeous the room is. But it is by far the biggest thing I have ever seen. I could get lost in there, I swear. The bathroom alone is a dream. Half of our walls, including the restroom and shower, are thick, impenetrable glass. There are plants and trees at the back of every wall. The first thing I did was jump in the shower while he tended to a few things. I loved every single minute of it. The shower was so good; it was like standing at the bottom of a waterfall. Seriously, this has got to be a dream.✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨(Third Person POV)Little did Livie know that a war was stirring while she started her new life in peace with Alarick as her mate. Morrison was glad his son had gotten rid of the last trace of the Watsons family. The guilt inside him was eating at him, slowly, creeping bit by bit deeper inside of him. Even
Livie’s POV"Luna, this way, come take a seat with us, please. Alpha will be out in just a few more minutes. Would you like a drink while we wait for him?" Rick's beta, Zane, asked me with a smile as I made my way inside the winning room. Everyone sat at different tables with either family or friends. But it was different here. Everyone smiled; they enjoyed themselves. I mean, even the girls serving tonight were happy. They seemed happy to help, but what intrigued me the most was that not all of them gave off the aura of being an omega. "Thank you. Water is more than fine." I said politely. He guided me to a far-end table where another girl was sitting. Everyone waived happily as I passed, murmuring among themselves and smiling. The girl sitting at the table he directed me to was probably around my age. She was beautiful, with dirty blonde hair, hazel eyes, and pink rose cheeks. She dressed in a hoodie and jeans, making her look comfortable. She was lost in a book, reading away and ho

I could feel his muscles flex beautifully over me as his hands slowly trailed down my side, his tongue softly gliding over my neck, leaving hot, wet kisses behind. I couldn't help but let out a soft moan as he sucked on the curve of my neck, making me arch my back. I wanted to touch him badly, run my fingers through his hair, and dig my nails into his back, but his hand had a strong hold on my hands over my head. I arched my back some more and slowly parted my legs, wrapping them around his waist. "There are too many clothes on you. Let's get rid of them, shall we?" he says, lifting off of me and pulling me up with
