ARABELLA POVThe dinner party was a blast. It was more than I expected, of course, given the short notice. Mia had made me drop my kids off with hers and the nanny, which gave me the upper hand to go to their house and spy on Rhys again. He did not like that I came. I saw it in the way he growled at my attire—a green sparkly short dress that had a slit by the side and a long V in the front. It was perfect.Craig had agreed to easily be my date, but I suspect that Mia had a hand in it. she must have convinced him so nicely for him to have agreed in the way he did.“Enjoying the dance?” the devil of the topic asked.“Yes!” I replied to him. “Yes, it is most marvelous with you.”Craig smiled, but his eyes lacked the enthusiasm of someone who was dancing with him. That was his business; I did not care if he was happy with me or not. All I wanted to do was get his blood, which was my sole purpose of asking him to dance with me… and to make Rhys green with envy.Rhys’ jealousy was the seco

CHAPTER ARABELLA POVI got off the phone, inhaling deeply. The restroom was oddly quiet and echoing, so I didn’t trust that it would not have exposed my intentions. I tried to speak quietly as much as I could, but this was a public bathroom and I didn’t exactly trust it. I wrapped the wipes of blood in a thin sheet and hid it in a section in my bag, hoping to send it out of this pack as soon as I could and have it tested for DNA. Then, I would have my true answer. For now, I would continue to play it off and lay low.I squared my shoulders and walked out of the bathroom. Rhys was standing at the door when I opened it widely, gasping in surprise and nearly falling when I saw him standing there. He was leaning against the wall, so he straightened when he saw me, giving me his dark, suspicious eyes. I placed a hand on my chest and inhaled sharply, trying to get my composure back.“Jeez! You scared me! You can’t just stand there like that!” I bellowed.He flinched, taken aback by my lou

CHAPTERARABELLA POVI stood in front of the room, hesitant if I should do this or not. It was a rash decision, a moment where I was driven by my emotions and my need to force him into a situation. A situation that he was all too glad to enter, anyway.I sighed. “Well, let’s see what he has to offer.”I dug my hand into my bag and fished out the room key, which I put into its keyhole and pried open the door. When I stepped in, I noticed that it was as dark as I’d left it, all the lights out. I reached out and switched it on, cascading the room in a dreamy yellow glow. I smiled to myself, then turned to the bed and nearly screamed.“Goddess!” I said, my hand going to my chest. “I have asked you to stop scaring me like that!”“You asked me to come here,” Rhys answered simply, sitting like a ghost on my bed.I clicked my tongue, watching him. He’d known when I came in, but he allowed me to fully discover him by himself when he could have just announced his presence like any normal pers

RHYS POVHer words struck a chord within me. I reached for her hand again, turning it over and tracing it with my fingers. I didn’t answer her; I had no answer whatsoever for what she’d just asked. Emma sat up boldly, not bothering to hide herself again. She dragged her hand from me, giving me a look as she got down from the bed and walked to the bathroom. As she walked away, my wolf and dick throbbed at the sight of her. One part of me wanted to drag her to bed again, but the other part was troubled that I felt this way for her, that my wolf was too active when it came to her. I stood up slowly as the realization set in me. Apart from Arabella who was long gone, my wolf hadn’t been active in any sexual relations. It should be a cause for concern, but I didn’t want to think about that right now. I couldn’t help it, though. The way my wolf nearly popped out of my skin when we were together, the way I stopped myself continually from marking her, the way I had to rebuke my wolf time and

RHYS POVI walked out of her sight and to the corner, heading to Bruno’s room. She would have to check up on him and make sure that Mia’s tantrums did not in any way affect him. Her anger was just the exact reason why I did not like her. Always angry, always grumpy. She always had one thing to say after the other. Just at the dinner party, she dared to publicly ask me why I did not complement her beauty. First, there was nothing to even compliment, and second, did she seriously have to embarrass me like that, after everything I had done?I continually convinced myself that she was my mate as I reached Bruno’s room. She was my mate and wife, and she’d given me a son. But what if my active wolf during sex with other people was her cause? My wolf already told me he didn’t get along with hers…I really don’t, Fenris growled.I rolled my eyes and knocked on Bruno’s room. Without waiting for the next beat, I nudged open the door. Bruno was with his nanny, trying out his vocal lessons. She l

ARABELLA POV I was attending to a patient when I walked in with a kid. I glanced at her briefly before finishing up with my patient. With the number of patients coming in each day, I constantly have to keep up to track. The woman who came in was standing impatiently, her eyes roving about, looking for someone. I finished up with the patient I was with and decided to go meet her. “Excuse me,” I said with a smile. “I saw you come in. Is there anything I can help you with?” As I asked that question, I looked down at the child she was holding. She was not more than 6 years old, though I could not be sure. Children these days grew bigger than their age. “I want Dr. Evans,” the woman said. “Your child doesn’t seem too good,” I said, noting the perspiration that ran down the sides of her face. “Do you want me to check her and see if she’s okay? Is that it?” “I want Dr. Evans!” the woman practically roared. “I’m not listening to anyone else but Dr. Evans!” I raised both my palms in the

ARABELLA POVMrs. Dingy was waiting for me when I exited the theatre room. I quickly took off my gloves and washed my hands, forcing myself to stop from touching my face. I’m going to have to shower later, but first I needed to speak to her. To think that I overestimated her and my judgment was depressing. That child could have died from the little narrow time that she was wasting.“Dr. Emma!” she gushed immediately she saw me, her hands fluttering aimlessly in the air. “Please how is she? Will she survive?”“If she doesn’t, it’ll be entirely your fault.”She immediately paled at my words. I won’t take it back; that child was so very close to death, so very close. She had nearly crossed over if not for the standby machines that we had at hand. At least the Alpha of the pack made sure to provide them with the necessary equipment to control incidents like these, but I guess you cannot control a mother’s stupidity. “I’m so sorry,” the woman said “I didn’t mean to upset you.”“No,” I re

ARABELLA POVI turned my face away before his lips could touch mine. Then I swooped down under his armpit in his brief moment of shock and escaped from him. Rhys turned around, a sly smile on his face. I did not like it, not one bit. I knew what he was thinking; I could practically smell the arousal on it. However, this was not what I wanted, not now, not here, and not ever.“Emma,” Rhys murmured. “Am i blind or did you just avoid me?”“You’re very much clear eyed,” I replied.“So you are avoiding me.”“I just told you that your wife is unwell and you went straight to kissing me, in her near presence!”“I don’t hear her voice, so I think she’s not home.”“Why do you think the servants are avoiding this floor?” I asked ironically. “Because she’s obviously home and in a sour mood. Thank the goddess that I had my strong pill to knock her out for a short while and help her regain her senses.”He smiled at me, a long, calculative smile. It was then that I realized that I’d revealed that hi
