AlyssaI've decided to stay here. I'm willing to try and fit in... willing to call the Blackwood pack my family. But I need time to adjust first. Time to get used to everything. I still can't believe I was accepted into the pack. It feels surreal. I thought I'd never find anyone who wanted me. But Alpha Trey is amazing. He was willing to risk everything to help me become a better person. I owe him big-time for giving me a second chance. For helping me overcome my past mistakes and making me realize how strong I am.There's Adam too. He's difficult to read sometimes. His thoughts seem to change from moment to moment. One minute he seems like such a jerk, the next all sweet and caring. I guess some men are hard to figure out. I feel a strange connection between him and me though. I wish we could spend more time together alone. I miss being able to talk freely to someone. Someone who isn't trying to use me for something.When I wake the following morning, I sit up in bed, stretching lazi
AdamMy head feels dizzy for a little bit after the ritual, but eventually, it subsides and I feel better than I did before. My stomach rumbles loudly when I smell the delicious smells coming from the feast set up in the center of the clearing. Alyssa looked beautiful kneeling in front of the other wolves, bowing to every single one of them. When she pledged herself to our pack, I felt a rush of pride wash through me. Not only because I knew she'd chosen to follow us instead of running away, but also because I had been right about her strength. I can sense it radiating from deep within her body and soul. Even though I still haven't seen much of what lies beneath, there's something different about her. Something powerful. Something that excites me. My cock twitches at the thought of burying myself inside her tight pussy. It wouldn't be long until I get to taste her sweet juices dripping down my tongue. The memories of my fingers deep inside her come rushing back as if they happened yes
AlyssaI'm so stupid. I thought he changed. That maybe things would work out. He lied to me. Again. And now I'm just fed up with everything. I know he's not my mate or anything, but damn if I could find someone better than him. But no. He was never good enough for me anyway. Not even close. I should have known it wouldn't last. I mean, look who his friends are. They all seem pretty messed up. Maybe that's why they hang out together. Well, whatever. There's nothing else left to say. I officially hate you, Adam Blackwood. Good riddance.I run to the front porch and throw open the door, storming outside. I slam it behind me, leaning against the railing. I take several long breaths trying to calm myself down. This isn't over yet. I'm going to make sure of that. I'm sick of being treated badly. Sick of people always telling me I'm too much trouble. Why did I think I'd finally found something worth fighting for?"Hey, Alyssa," Adam says quietly from beside me.I turn and glare at him. "How
Adam Mary-Kate lies motionless on the ground, her chest moving rapidly. She gasps for air, coughing harshly as she lifts her head from the grass. Alyssa is there, her eyes filled with anger. Anger I've never seen before. Her aura projects so much power and authority. I stand there watching her, wondering why she has such an intense reaction to Mary-Kate attacking her. Is it jealousy? Or is she actually scared? I stare at her for a moment longer, then turn my attention to Mary-Kate. She gets to her knees, glaring daggers at me."This bitch is crazy," she says through gritted teeth."You okay?" I ask, eyeing her closely.She shakes her head slowly, glancing over at Alyssa. "No, I'm not. And neither is she."Alyssa turns to face Mary-Kate, narrowing her gaze. "How dare you attack me? You should be grateful I didn't rip out your throat with my bare hands."Mary-Kate laughs dryly, her voice hoarse. "Well, I guess you would know about ripping throats out. I bet you'd love to do it too, wou
AlyssaAdam is a complete ass. That's all there is to say about him. He thinks because he has a dick that makes him superior to everyone else. I wish I had never met him. All he does is yell and scream. I should have known better than to trust him. I knew this would happen. No one likes me. Everyone hates me. I am alone in this world.I run through the woods aimlessly, heading deeper into the forest. My body aches and throbs with pain, and my lungs burn. I stop to rest against a tree trunk, leaning on it heavily while I try to breathe. It hurts too bad to move any longer. I close my eyes and let the tears flow freely down my cheeks. I hate you, Adam Blackwood. You ruined everything. I will never forgive you.I wipe my eyes furiously, wanting to rid them of the salty liquid. When I open my eyes again, I spot glowing eyes in the distance. They seem to glow brighter as I stare at them, their luminescence reflecting off the trees.I freeze, unable to make sense of what I'm seeing. I glanc
AdamAlyssa looks up at me with wide scared eyes. Her lips quiver and she begins trembling uncontrollably."Don't worry. Everything will be fine," I reassure her, putting my hand on hers.She nods silently, tears streaming down her cheeks. She grips my hand tighter, refusing to let go.I pull Alyssa into my lap, hugging her against me so hard, that I can barely breathe. "I can handle them. Don't worry."But deep down, I already know I cannot defeat the entire pack alone. Not if they bring reinforcements. There might be only a few, but it still isn't something I want to deal with right now.As the sound of heavy footfalls reaches our ears, I glance around frantically. Where are the others? Surely, someone has noticed their arrival by now."They've found us," I mutter under my breath.There's a rustling noise, followed by another set of footsteps heading in our direction. The Moon Creek pack has arrived and is coming straight for us.I sit up abruptly, pulling Alyssa with me. "Get ready
Alyssa"Brynne," Alpha Trey shouts as he approaches the pack house carrying a body in his arms. My heart stops in my chest. It can't be Adam. Oh, my God, no. Please tell me it isn't."What happened?" I ask, running up behind him.He doesn't respond immediately. Instead, he continues walking toward the building. I follow closely behind him with my hands over my mouth. It's Adam. How? Why? I take a deep breath, trying to calm my racing pulse. I mustn't panic now or we'll lose him.When he reaches the door, he places his palms flat against it and pushes inward. Luna Brynne is there waiting for him. She jumps into his arms, sobbing hysterically while he holds her tight against his chest. I watch from the shadows of the doorway unable to move."Adam, my son!" She cries out, shaking his shoulder roughly. "Please wake up!"His mother moves quickly across the room and sits next to him, pulling him into her lap. I stand frozen, watching as she strokes his hair tenderly. "He can't be dead," she
AlyssaI toss and turn trying to sleep, but I find myself unable to drift off. My thoughts keep wandering back to Adam being bitten by that wolf. I can't believe I healed him. How was that possible? Was it some sort of miracle from the gods themselves? Or maybe it was the Moon Goddess herself guiding my hands when she touched me. Whatever it was, I wish it would happen again soon so that I may heal someone else. My thoughts run to the voice that rang in my mind earlier. Did it mean anything? Had I heard it before? I shake my head and try to clear it as I roll onto my side. Suddenly, a strange feeling comes over me. What if it's my wolf? I glance down at my wrist where the bracelet is still attached. Could it be communicating with me somehow? Maybe my wolf knows something I don't.As much as I want to ignore these feelings, I can't help but wonder why I haven't seen or sensed my wolf since that moment."Are you awake?" Adam whispers as he enters my room. His hair is messy and he looks
