ShannonBut his reaction was something I never expected, I thought he would at least slap me back like Terry did before. Instead, he grabbed my hand."Are you hurt?"I had fully expected he would be furious, and he might even explode. I knew he could easily hurt me, if not from the size difference then from the vicious rumors I heard about him. I had no doubt he could easily overpower me. Maybe he would hit me like Alpha Ashe hit Nora.But I had my fair training under my belt, I would definitely fight him back and try my best to kill him. Even if I couldn't kill him, I would make him suffer, make him pay for his action.But not this, not him holding my hand so gently and asking me if I was hurt by the slap. And it did hurt. Because it was a hard slap.I didn't know what to say after looking into his eyes. There was something I couldn't place, but I wouldn't be so foolish to think it was anything than possessiveness.I tugged my hand back and shook my head. I couldn't exactly say that
ShannonI was woken up by the soft sunlight, the temperature and the humility of the room were just right, just as I was about to move, the feeling of a pair of arms around my waist shocked me. What happened yesterday rushing back to me...The Moonhunter attacked us, and then he picked me, but he didn't force himself on me, I fell asleep in his arms. And as much as I hated to admit this, this was the best sleep I had since Kaia came into the picture.Before that, I used to wake up in Terry's arms as well. The warmth radiated from Vernon's body brought back so many memories, but they were just memories now. Terry left with Kaia, he wouldn't come back for me, even if he did, I couldn't forgive him, or forget what he had done.Vernon's cold cedar scent trickled to my nose, he was not up yet. I slowly and carefully turned around to face him, trying not to wake him up. I didn't know if he was a light sleeper or not, so I had to move very quietly, and one step at a time.But finally, I turn
MabelI stared at the woman in front of me. She didn't look like much, the best I could say was that she wasn't ugly, but that was all. She wasn't pretty, she didn't really have boobs or blonde hair like me. What did Vernon see in her? She was nothing compared to me! I got the looks and I got the body every man wants. Why would Vernon choose her?When Adonis told me that Vernon choose a used good to fuck yesterday I was livid! I had been in his harem for 4 years and he had never chosen me before, nor did other women, so I heard. God damn it! I was the daughter of Alpha Roderick Jacobse! He didn't even pick me!But it would be an honor to be bedded by him, and to have his children, I could even be his chosen one if he liked me back. And I tried so hard to get him to be interested in me, one time I left a love letter and a set of lingerie on his bed. I poured all my love for him into this letter, and the black lingerie was sexy but classy, my best friend who was also in the harem told m
ShannonI was surprised when Vernon came out of nowhere and stand between me and that woman, he was kind of defending me, I guess? Although it was all his fault, to begin with.What surprised me even more was that he didn't seem to recognize her, I thought she was his concubine or something, but he acted like he had never seen her before.Vernon had a harem? How many women were in his harem? It seemed that she wasn't the only one. I'm glad that Terry didn't have a harem, but still, he wanted me to share with Kaia.He just let the whole harem go, I wouldn't be so self-absorbed to think that he did it for me, but why did he do that?And then I saw him whisper something to his beta, his beta's expression changed slightly then nodded.After that, he turned to me."Are you hungry? Let's eat."I suddenly remembered why I was here in the first place. And I was about to refuse."I want to talk to..." I wanted to talk to Domenica and Nora."We could do that later, now let's eat first. You must
ShannonThis was my first time riding a helicopter. The noise was going to tear my head open. I couldn't hear anything, even if Domenica and Nora were sitting not far from me, I couldn't talk to them.I kept frowning. Vernon was sitting beside me, he noticed my discomfort, and he said something, but it was too loud for me to hear. He leaned in close to my ear, so close he was practically pressed up against me."Is this the first time you take a ride in a helicopter?"I didn't think he could hear my answer in such a loud environment, nor did I want to lean in close to him, so I nodded and made sure he saw that.Oddly, he smiled and then he held my hand in his, he squeezed my hand slightly which brought me some comfort.'He's so much better than Terry.' Kaela suddenly said to me.It was weird to hear the voice in your head when your surrounding was so loud.'Judging from what? Terry was good to me at first, who knew what he would act like after he meets his fated mate, maybe he would be
Terry"Why did you drive off without her?! She's my Luna for god's sake!" I yelled at Javier, he flinched at my sudden outburst.We reached the outskirt of my pack, I built several safe houses here a few years ago just in case. They were located in a woody area, it was hard to reach, and not a lot of people knew about this place. Didn't think that I need to use this so soon."It was all her fault," Javier pointed at Kaia, "Shannon let her get in the car first, she would have been here if she got in first." He said helplessly as if he did nothing wrong."She has nothing to do with this! Don't drag her into this! And why did you decide to steal the Moonhunter's supplier? You know he was not to be messed with!""I thought he wouldn't notice this...""What do you mean you thought he wouldn't notice this? He is the Moonhunter! And you know he's revengeful, now this is his retaliation."I looked at his face, it was like he was so untainted by any wisdom or knowledge at all, I didn't know ho
ShannonI saw his Beta come in holding two envelopes came in, Vernon let go of me immediately upon hearing Terry's name. He turned to face his Beta, I couldn't see his expression, but I could hear him sneering.When his Beta walked closer, I could see that one of the envelopes had my name on it. But Vernon quickly blocked my line of sight, he turned around to face me again."I'll go handle this. You can stay here or feel free to use any of the rooms I just showed you. If you need anything, just ask the maid. Okay?"I nodded but I kept thinking about the letter. My gaze never left the letter. He took them from his Beta, and he was walking out of the door."Vernon..." I couldn't help but call out to him once I saw he reached the door. I wanted to see the letter."What?"He looked back but didn't turn around, I could see the coldness in his eyes. I suddenly lost the courage to ask him for the letter. So I shook my head."Nothing."He stopped for a minute and left without looking back. I
ShannonDomenica and Nora were at a loss for words, they didn't expect Vernon to ask them for permission. And they didn't know if they should say yes or not. So they turned to look at me instead."It's alright, you go first," I told them. So they nodded and head back inside the Pack House.I wondered what he wanted to do though.He kept his hands on my shoulders, it was awkward like he was pushing me to walk, so I tried to shake him off, he laughed lightly and then moved his hand down to my lower back.He was leading me to the front of the Pack House."I might need to invite your friend for a few questions regarding their Packs."He finally spoke his mind and I knew he meant he needed to interrogate them, but that was the first time I heard someone speak so lightly and politely about an interrogation."Please go easy on them. If you need to know anything you could ask me as well. But I won't betray my pack members." I said as I saw something flick in his eyes."I appreciate your hones
