ALLISON KEELER My gaze kept wandering to Matt as he drove through the streets. Soft music played on the radio and he hummed absently to it. He chose to drive me from the Arena but he want going home. He was heading somewhere. He wanted to show me something. Something he believed was going to help me. "I didn't mean to put you out there to face Stan's rage" he began in an attempt of stirring up a conversation. "The entire Pack are just going to keep talking about this untill all is done . I can do better without having Yolanda shove her son up my nose!"He laughed not from my words but from the expression that accompanied. He glanced at means for the a brief moment I thought he was going to say something but he shook his head and cluck his tongue. "I can't believe this happened " I gave him a small smile. "You're not totally invisible. It had to happen some days. The entire dynasty has heard if you, the pack Luna and they had to do something. We had to do something. " He shrugged
FAYE EVANS I descended the stairs the next morning just in time as Monique waltzed in through the main double doors with her sunglasses on. She stopped halfway through just to take off her sunglasses to scan the living area. She used to be Grimsby's girlfriend. Why was she here? I stood unnoticed by the stairway watching her, my gaze widened momentarily as the butler rolled in her suitcases. Mr. Smith in charge of the domestic staff sprang to her from the kitchen with a radiant smile on his face. That was when Monique noticed me on the stairway. She plastered a smirk on her face before her gaze dropped on Mr Smith. "Have them put my suitcases in my room." She spoke quietly to Mr Smith"And please be gentle with what's fragile." Mr. Smith nodded leading the butler and other able hands that rolled in the test of her suitcases up stairs. I got down from the stairs to grant them access. They bowed slightly as they moved past me by the landing. I was yet to understand what this wa
KARLA "Monique was here?" I blinked uncertainly at Faye. She nodded without a word. This struck an unfamiliar chord inside of me. Grimsby was still seeing Monique? "That's how disappointed I am in Grimsby." Faye sighed. I wasn't entirely fazed by Monique's sudden appearance. It was too late, way too late for any of them to try to knock me off of Grimsby's life. I was after all the mother of his heir. "You have to act quickly. You have to secure your position as the Luna of this territory." Faye's tone dropped to a whisper. "I don't know what to do. I'm thinking of meeting Glomé for a love potion." Her face brightened in acute embarrassment as she declared. I gaped at her. Was this how far she was willing to take things? "Grimsby's an Alpha. You could be put to death if such treason is realized." It was the only way that I could scare her from that option. "I just don't know what to do anymore. Did you see Monique?" She glanced at me, "She sounded too confident. She is
ALLISON KEELERI muffled a curse as the deafening wails of the prison's alarm intensified the throbbing ache in my head and my thick lashes fluttered rapidly to accommodate the scene before me. Hoisting from the floor, I winced at the pain in my right arm from a futile attempt to place a soothing hand on the burning sensation on my head. With my trembling fingers, I felt the encrusted blood on my head. The main entrance was blurry as my gaze squinted, trying to make out the silhouette masculine figure against the ray of lights by the door as he approached me. They had all escaped. The frantic prisoners had broken free and I was one of their victims, but unlucky enough to have survived the fatal blow. He knew I was no match for this job. Alpha Colton knew I was too weak for defense as a prison warden in case things turned out the way they did, and yet, he had chosen to select me to keep watch on the vicious rogues. He had chosen to punish me in ways that triggered my anxiety daily.
ALLISON KEELERMy heart momentarily ceased beating the second my thick lashes flickered open, locking on the mesmerizing eyes gazing right at me.Instantly, I averted my gaze, squinting at the brightness of the room. The lights were blinding and the sheets felt comfortable. My eyes darted across from where I lay in the big bed. It was a luxuriously furnished room with comfortable beddings and Colton's patchouli intermingled sweetly with the roses in a white vase by the corner. Alpha Colton was all I thought of. Sitting up in the bed, my wounds were healed and my head was void of the excruciating pain from earlier. Tears filled my eyes. I had survived again. Something I didn't mean to. Fear clung onto my inside now I could sense power emanating from Colton. The Alpha aura. Colton was a ferocious Alpha who was a force to be reckoned with. He was better as an ally than a foe. I had unbelievably gotten on his blacklist which had automatically placed me as his foe, and I was still payin
ALPHA COLTON I had awoken that fateful morning to the sound of my buzzing phone that morning. The call came in from the prison desk and I had quickly surmised something was terribly wrong. I was not mistaken. When I had learned of what happened all my heart prayed for was having Allison taken out of my Pack for good.I glanced back at her, feeling the same wave of disgust I did each time my eyes drifted off to her. The Goddess must've been high on some cheap stuff to think I was ever going to be with her. Not even in my drunken state. I knew just how to end her misery but couldn't take the initiative to do it. All that there was to do was to wait for the perfect accident to clear her off. instantly, I caught myself, repressed the fury surging inside of me just to remind myself this was the last phase of my plan. I consciously shifted my thoughts from the pathetic Omega to the captives that just escaped. I desperately wanted to know how they were able to break out of the heavily
ALPHA COLTONPeering at the escaping sun rays from the heavy window drapes, I disentangled from Allison’s engulfing body. Then my eyes dropped on the girl sleeping peacefully beside me.Memories of the previous night surged through my mind. I hadn't planned on taking Allison to bed the way I did. I would've doubted if I had been told my previous day would end up in her arms. Yet it did. I thought of reasons why I found her appealing at first. She wasn't half as elegant as Shirley was, yet, she turned my head a few times. She was petite, way smaller than how I liked my women. She was frightful and weak, the extreme opposite of what I wanted in my woman. As an Alpha, I was attracted to strength, beauty, and class. This girl in my arms was void of those three qualities, yet I had gawked at her in the black dress. I couldn't bring myself to think of how scared my wolf had been when I walked into the prison to find her completely hurt and frightened. It was how I loved seeing her but my
ALLISON KEELERI sat absently in an armchair by the window munching on the toasts Maeve served me for breakfast. My mind wandered far off, the night before invading my thoughts.I woke up that morning to empty sheets with Alpha Colton gone from the room but his scent lingered on the sheets. His patchouli lingered sweetly on me We'd made love the previous night. I had made love to a man for the first time and it wasn't just any man but my mate.It was going to remain one of the best nights of my life. Alpha Colton had marked me as his mate. That was the best sign I could ever search for. Finally, I belonged to him forever. A wide grin plastered on my face. "I've selected a dress, hurry and come get ready," Maeve announced, popping her head from the closet door. "Do you think he's going to take me out to lunch?" I cluelessly asked, unsure as I walked into the closet discarding the gray bathrobe I wore. Maeve smiled at me, moving ahead to clear the small table from which I had br
