KARLA I disentangled from the thick bed covering as I sat up in the big bed.Grimsby was gone from the hotel room that morning but I felt happy. There were no worries inside of me anymore. My fears of Grimsby deserting me after making love to me were gone now. I was pregnant now. I was going to be a Luna. I smiled merrily to myself. My dreams were coming true.Being the one to receive all of those love and felicitations from the pack members. Having the people bow before me and treat me with sheer respect was going to be my life now. I stood naked before the full-length mirror admiring myself. In no time my baby bump was going to show. Grimsby had better hurry up and clear out that stump from our pasture. I poured myself some fruity wine as I soaked in the jacuzzi my mind on the things I was going to say and do as the Luna. First, I was going to get Faye back to her people. 8 didn't want any threats to come to my baby then, so I was going to find my team of makeup artists, wardro
ALLISON KEELER"I can't find my amulet," I announced the second I met Matt."Where do you remember leaving it last?""I wore it last night for the test. I took it off during the fire trials."I was to walk through the fire. If my wolf suffered a burn then I was not a true Lynth blood. Luckily I did, I came out without a burn. Then I remembered handing the amulet over to Luca. He was beside me all through the night. We were together all through the morning why didn't he remind me he was with it? "Luca," I informed Matt. Matt yelled his name and he came down in a nice dressing shirt, his eyes soft and his hair brushed perfectly. He looked handsome now he was fully dressed. He didn't wait until I asked him, he stretched my amulet my way. "You look beautiful, way more beautiful than any girl in the pack." He offered. Darlene cleared her throat audibly to suggest she was standing right there. "Yeah, I said what I said." Luca's face bore a huge grin. "I wish I could come." Darlene
ALLISON KEELER I went over my speech in a manner I doubted if this was the runt a few months ago in the Darkmoon Pack and Hornsgate. The elders of CaeHills although not all came forward to swear their fealty. Most of them had their loyalty to the Flynns unwavering. The clapping was deafening and the love was massive. Things went as planned. This was my moment of freedom. This was when the pack accepted me and the elders spoke with respect and fear in their eyes as they fell at my feet to swear their fealty. "The goddess brought you back to our people, live long and rule your land in love, peace, and prosperity." One of the elders was blessed. "I want to make this land into what it was before...""What was it before?" One of the elders challenged. "You know nothing about this pack, you're more like an outsider in our midst." It was true I knew nothing about CaeHills. I had no idea other than what I was told by my team about this pack. But I was determined to. I was ready to make
KARLA "She is hiding somewhere in this pack." Faye yelled at the pack scouts, "Find her and bring her to me before sunset. They scurried off in search of Evelyn. She had to be hiding somewhere. Grimsby had to be hiding her somewhere and Faye was going to stop at nothing until she found and served the Omega the death penalty she deserved. "She can't thread this soil, not after spreading her ugly legs for my mate." She spat. She had been so bitter since the previous day that it was starting to tell on me. I couldn't be around such energy not when my baby was growing inside of me. A pregnant wolf needed to surround herself with love, excess happiness, and joy Abe, not those bitter and self-loath wrenches. "She has to be somewhere." She reiterated much to me. "You're stressing for no reason." I sounded unfazed. She could have the scout year down this pack to being Evelyn out, Grimsby was never returning to her. "What if she has escaped?" I tried."Fat chance. She can't return to
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.
