#Chapter180I whimpered and backed away. I knew it was too good to be true. There was no way he would want me.I kept moving until my back hit the wall. I choked back a sob as my back slid down the wall. Leon was straddling Ethan's waist; I could feel the anger radiating off of him."Joseph, grab Leon, get him off." Alpha Miles ordered.My dad grabbed Leon's shoulders and tried pulling him away. But it was no use... Leon had one goal, to destroy Ethan, and no matter what anyone said, he wasn't going to listen.3I couldn't move; I was frozen against the wall. All I could hear was Ethan's words repeating over and over like a broken record.You don't look like a Luna.You're too fat to move.His pack will never accept you.He won't love you."Stop! You're going to kill him!" Luna Emily screamed. Her scream brought me out of my state of shock. She was furious, waving her arms about everywhere."Do you not care? Ethan is your mate!" She yelled at me.3I could see his back musc
#Chapter181I held my hand out in front of me, "take my hand," I whispered.2He gently placed his hand in mine, and I sighed as the tingles erupted through my arm. My body buzzed with pleasure; this is a feeling I can't deny."I lost myself in my head, and I let the negative thoughts take over," I whispered, "I'm sorry for everything I said." I sighed."But... I do want you, Leon." I breathed, "more than anything," I whimpered.1He gripped my hand and tugged me towards him. "I'm in love with you, Ayla. It may be too soon, but fuck, you've consumed me." He sighed.I slammed my lips against his and moaned as he fisted his hand through my hair. He held my head in place as he deepened the kiss. He loves me... I can feel it as he pours everything into this kiss.I'm falling for him; I'm just not there yet. It's like we're reading the same book... He's just a Chapter ahead.I rubbed my hands over his shoulders and chest, stopping at the top of his shirt. I grasped his collar and t
#Chapter182Ethan's POV.2"Ethan, baby. I came as soon as your mum told me," Jasmine hurried into the room. I was back at the packhouse. I needed rest to heal from these wounds. I can't believe she's been blessed with another mate and a fucking Alpha too.There is no chance of me getting her back now... Not that she would come back. I wanted a submissive, quiet little mate, but she's far from it since she's grown up. Ever since we were younger, she would follow me everywhere. I knew she had feelings for me; she wasn't exactly subtle about them.I liked her too... I liked that she would do anything for me. After a while, I did fall in love with her. My friends used to laugh at me at school because she wasn't exactly the skinniest or prettiest she-wolf, but she was sweet.1I wasn't expecting her to grow up into a fucking stunning she-wolf. I couldn't have her thinking she had a chance with anyone else... I needed to break her down so she would stay with me. But my dad had to fucki
#Chapter183"Are you sore? Are you ok? Did the mark take on me?" Leon rambled as we were cuddled together on the bed. I giggled and beamed up at him.I opened my mind link for the first time in ages, "can you hear me?" I concentrated on Leon. I watched as his eyes brightened, and a huge smile appeared on his face."I love you, beautiful." He answered through the link, gazing down at me.I sighed at his voice in my head. Athena purred and seemed settled too. Completing the bond has made me feel at ease; all the negative thoughts are dulled out by Leon constantly projecting his thoughts and feelings into me.′We got lucky, Ayla.′ Athena sighed."Has your wolf come back fully?" I questioned, peering up at him again.He beamed at me. "He has. He wants to meet you." He replied, smiling."I'd love to meet him. We can go for a run together; I bet he's dying to be let out." I giggled."Right now... He's dying to get his paws on you." He smirked as he rolled me over onto my back."L
#Chapter184"Get the plane ready, we'll be there in half an hour." He grumbled before shoving his phone in his pocket.He placed up my bag and headed out of my front door. "Have a safe flight, love. I'll see you soon," mom whispered, giving me a quick hug.I stepped out of the house and went over to the car. I climbed beside Leon. He didn't speak to me. He looked to make sure I was fastened in. He patted Beta Jace on his shoulder to indicate we were ready.The car roared to life and sped off down the street. I sucked in a breath and glanced at Leon. He has his eyes fixated on the seat in front of him. He doesn't look at me or even holds my hand when I placed it over his.I breathed out but kept my hand over his. I know he's hurting and trying to keep it together. I don't know what to do or say.Sapphire, Wade and Owen are in the car behind us. Sapphire was inconsolable when Leon told her."No... What happened?" She choked."They were near a waterfall, and six rogues cornered th
#Chapter185Leon's POVI stood outside of the lockup where the rogue was being held. I tried reining my anger in a little... I wanted to question him, not just go straight in there and tear his head off.I left Ayla with my parents and Lila. My parents were so welcoming to Ayla; I knew they would be. Ayla was nervous that they wouldn't accept her, but her worries were put to bed when my mum gave her a heartwarming smile.I took a deep breath. I needed answers that I could give the pack before I can go back to my family.As I pulled open the door, Cory appeared. He had a sheepish look on his face. I raised my brow at him. "He's not talking..." He mumbled.I wrapped my arm around his neck and pulled him into me. "I'm so sorry I wasn't here," I whispered. The guilt of being away when the pack needed me the most is eating away at me.1"There was nothing anyone could have done," He whimpered, "I saw them do it... We were so close," he cried as his body shook.2I pulled him out of
#Chapter186Leon's POVI opened the cell door, pulling it closed behind me. Rhydian handed me some shorts while Amaris and Addison looked away."You don't want to go in there," I stated as I pulled the shorts on."Why did you do that?" Addison screeched. I took a deep breath before glancing at her. "He threatened my pup... I couldn't control myself." I whispered."He killed my brother and my best friend!" She yelled, hitting her fists against my chest. "How am I supposed to control my Dark Wolf without Caleb," she cried. I wrapped my arms around her, "I'm sorry," I whimpered.Amaris and her twin brother are Dark Wolves. But Alex, Amaris' brother, is very rarely around. When Amaris and Rhydian mated, he transformed into a Dark Wolf just without the abilities. Amaris has three abilities. A protective barrier, healing ability and the scream of a banshee... Like she screams and shatters everything in the vicinity.Addison is a Dark Wolf too... So was Dominic. They don't have any a
#Chapter187I can't sit still. I can feel Leon's emotions going haywire. One second, he's sad, he's angry... Now he's worried. My eyes are constantly fixated on the door waiting for him to walk through."Leon will be fine," Ruby, his mom, reassured me from across from the kitchen table. It was nice of her, but it didn't work.I sighed and nodded. "Caleb wouldn't be happy we haven't given you a proper welcoming," she tittered.I shook my head. "Nonsense." I swished my hand through the air. "The pack need to grieve." I comforted.She smiled and touched my hand on the table. "I'm so glad he has you." She commented."I'm lucky to have him," I returned, squeezing her hand."Where's Lila?" Leon questioned through the link causing me to jump. It's been so long since I've had voices randomly popping up in my mind. His voice was cold and distant, and I shivered."She's asleep upstairs," I replied in a whisper. He was making me nervous.The door in the kitchen opened. I felt a smile c
