Max’s POV I had hoped Nancy would be my mate. I wanted her to be. She is absolutely beautiful. Her brown hair falls in soft waves down her back. Her brown eyes are lined in gold. Her nose is like a little button. Her kissable lips are always red and plump. What I wouldn’t give for one more kiss? One more touch, one more embrace. Her toned frame pressed against mine one more time as we chase a high. Just one more time. Never again. She has her mate. “Hey brother let’s take a walk,” Sam slaps my back, and we go out back. “Sucks, I know. You want the one to be the one who stirs so much in you, but you find out she is fated to someone else. Lower rank, but hot, none the less. Sucks, like a kick in the nuts.” “Been there?” I ask. “Three times,” Sam nods. “But I can say, once you meet your mate, you don’t care anymore. As beautiful as they were, they don’t hold a candle to my mate. As good as they were in bed...” “Dude, your mate is my sister,” I cut him off. He lau
Rebecca’s POV“I’m so sorry,” Sam said, again.“I know you are, and it won’t happen again,” I raise my eyebrows at him.“Never, you have my word,” Sam tried to touch me, but I back away.“Sam, I can’t just fall into your arms and melt like nothing happened. You think what you did is excusable and it’s not. You could have said to me, ‘Rebecca, I can’t break up with her on the phone. I’ll break up with her as soon as she gets back.’ And I would have said, ‘makes sense.’ But under no circumstances should you have talked to her on the phone, under less circumstances should have even listened during phone sex. The sneaking off to talk to her is what hurts. You were calling her while visiting my parents! You did this in my father’s house, and you expect him to forgive you? To just be okay leaving me here in your care? Would you leave your daughter with someone who did what you did? Did you say ‘Ditto’ to her this week?“Sam looks scared to tell the truth, but sighs and nods.“That is cheat
Rebecca’s POVIt’s time for them to leave and Malcom has his truck to go get Nancy’s things. Isaac and Sam help hook up the trailer we used for my stuff.“‘Are you sure?” Daddy asks me. He has asked twenty times since breakfast.“Daddy, Mom had to defend herself from more than a few pack members because of you, don’t act all innocent. Didn’t you bring a date to the party you met mom at? The same party where I was conceived in a coat closet?” I watch him squirm. “Sam and I will be fine. Now release me and Nancy.”He smiles, “I already did, you belong to Blue Mountain now.”“Thanks, Daddy!” I hug him tight. “It will be okay. Nothing is ever perfect.”“We have training sweetheart,” Ike tells me after everyone is gone and it just the three of us. “Do you want to join us?”“How many of Sam’s conquests will be there?” I ask. Sam looks down. I can be snarkier now that it’s just us, and honestly, I’m in the mood to go full on Bitch! Like put Monica to shame Bitch Mode.“Every pack member he h
Isaac’s POV We worked out for a couple of hours. She and Augusta got in a great sparing session. Virginia offered to spar with her, but I said no, she should train with a warrior before a Beta. In all honesty, I was concerned My Luna would kill my Beta. I need a good Beta, and her brother is not a good substitute. At the pack meeting, several new mates are introduced to the pack. Nancy and Malcom showed a little tension that wasn’t there this morning. Something must have happened. “And I want to introduce my newest daughter,” Dad announces. The pack stares at mom and mummers that she is pregnant again. “No, Luna is not pregnant. Isaac and Samson have found their fated mate. Rebecca comes to us from Green Creek, where she is the Alpha’s Daughter. I owe Alpha Jackson, her father, my life. It was he who trained me for challenge I won over twenty years ago. Allow me to introduce Future Luna Rebecca.” My mate was pose and grace, as she stood between us smiling. “I’m ready to go home,
Rebecca’s POV Isaac orbs away from where we were making out and I turn back to my friends. “How did you two get inside?” I asked. “They never lock the door, who would be dumb enough to break into the Alpha House?” Augusta asks. “Malcom feeling better?” I ask Nancy. “It took a little coaxing, but I think he gets I’m not one of those Alpha chasers. He was afraid I would reject him if Max gave me half a signal that he wanted me as Luna.” I busted out laughing. “You a Luna, oh I’d pay to see that.” Nancy busted out laughing as well. “I know right?” Augusta seemed to enjoy our joke too. “You are perfect for my brother, I’m glad he found you.” Augusta smiles. “So, coffee?” Nancy smiles. “I can make it here,” I offer. “The coffee shop in town makes great coffee,” Augusta offers. “And owners who wanted their niece to be Luna,” Nancy adds. “Oh,” Augusta said, understanding. “But, if the pack finds out you don’t go there because of Cheryl, the pac
Rebecca’s POV “It’s Patty sweetheart, it’s Patty.” Ike coos, soothing me. I see him mind link and hear movement inside. Sam opens the door in a tee shirt and pants. Not his usual nighttime ensemble. “Patty wanted to stay after our date. I can’t say no to that little sister.” He opens the door and I see Patty asleep in his bed and a pallet built beside the bed. “She got scared in the guest room.” I softened seeing him be a good big brother. “I just wanted to say goodnight and I love you.” “I love you baby, see you two in the morning,” he kisses me sleepily. Ike and I go to his bedroom. I never really looked around his room before. There are two walls covered in books. I look at the bookshelves. Human histories, pack histories, other supernatural histories. I see the section on Lycans is extensive. “You fought in the battle of Lycaness didn’t you,” I look at him. He nods. “Did you or Sam get hurt?” “Yes, but we healed. Our jobs were to orb warriors in.
Rebecca’s POV We all settle in for lunch, Ike comes down last and I’m already between Nancy and Sam. “Nancy,” Ike said, narrowing his eyes at her. “Isaac,” Nancy said, narrowing her eyes back. “Are you challenging an Alpha?” Isaac asks. “Nope I’m challenging my best friend's mate,” Nancy didn’t look away. “You know you hurt her you hurt me, right?” I said, smirking. Ike gives up and sits across from me. I smile at him and rub my foot up his leg under the table. Ike- I love you, Luna. Me- I love you, Alpha. Sam- Is there a reason I’m on this mindlink? Ike- Don’t you have something to say to our Luna. Sam- Oh yeah, I love you baby. I giggle and bump Sam’s shoulder. We smile at each other. “So, since I pissed off one Alpha, may as well go for broke, why are you taking my best friend on a workout date?” Nancy asks. “Sam, you aren’t” Rona, a sister, yells. “That is so gross, Sam,” Beth, another sister, gives him mean look. “Sammy, you can do bet
Rebecca’s POV My date with Sam ended in a fight. Of course, it did! He wanted us to sleep in his room, I reminded him that he had sex with other shewolves in that bed and had promised me that he would not take me to somewhere he had been with others. I honestly have no interest in being in that room ever. We slept, just slept, in our bedroom alone. I hear his alarm go off. He wanted to show Isaac you can make love all night and still be to work on time. Sorry, I screwed that up. I whine, when he turns allowing the cold to replace my comfortable warmth. “I have work, baby,” he kisses my cheek. “I’m sorry, I’m so not the best mate right now.” “Rebecca, I love you. I promise to be the most faithful, the most loyal. You are my life. And I will spend every day proving to you that I am trustworthy.” “I’m sure once the PMS is over, I’ll feel better.” I say, kissing his cheek. “You have some long PMS! Horny as hell, moody, sick, I couldn’t be a fema
