Zaya POV“Alex is acting weird. He is keeping something from me.” Audrey spoke while tossing me a piece of fruit.I was hungry but had no appetite for anything. It had been like that since I puked in the towns market. But I’d been playing it off. Taking a few bites here and there.I asked her to meet me near the forest. I needed to get away and just have some alone time. But I didn’t feel like being totally alone and I knew Ann would be busy with duties. Though I didn’t think Audrey would come carrying a box of fruit.It smelled so good, but I just couldn’t bring myself to eat anything.“What do you mean he is acting weird?” I asked while eyeing the apple in my hand. I really didn’t want to eat it.“Yesterday, me and Ann heard a few people talking about you guys having a party in the main office. We were both confused because neither of us were invited. Then when I mentioned it, he gave me some back handed story.”“What? You think he was lying, and you want me to confirm.”“I don’t th

Anna POV“You’re a hard person to find.” A deep voice called out to me just as I entered my home. My very private home.I nearly jumped out of my skin when I realized the voice was coming from inside my living room. The box of cupcakes I was carrying almost decorated my clean floor.I lived alone. No one should be here. Especially not him.Trent walked over to me and took the now bent box out of my shaking hands.“What are you doing here?”He joked, “Well, my Alpha decided to come to the Bloodmoon pack to….”I interrupted him. “I mean in my house. What are you doing my house, Trent?”I watched him walk across the room as if this was his place. His tall and lanky presence somehow took up most of the room.While he was busy placing the box on the counter, I was taking him in. Trent looked just as good as he did back then. The hair on his head and chin a deep black. His cheeks were as high as I remembered and shoulders just as broad.My trance was broken with the sound of his voice. “Thi

Anna POVThe moment the door closed, and we heard his footsteps disappear, Audrey began asking questions.“Uh, what was Trent doing here?”My face turned red. I walked over to the kitchen counter to place eyes on the box of cupcakes. The box he held in his hands not more than ten minutes ago. I inhaled his scent. Sandalwood. He smelled like Sandalwood. I turned to her. “I guess you should hear it from me. Trent and I are mates.”“But he and….”“I know. He and Leila are together.” I finished her sentence.She paused and squinted her eyes. “Well that explains it.”“What is it?” I asked, wondering what information I had just given her.“Leila mentioned some things about Trent earlier. She said he’d been acting weird.”I smirked. “I am sure he was. He said he had been looking for me. No doubt counting the minutes till he could reject me.”I plopped down on the first seat I could find, then folded my arms over my table. Next thing I know, my face is buried in my arms and I’m fighting the

Godric POV“I thought you asked me not to return until I had information?”Crane stood across my desk staring at me. His clothes dirty from combat training. His eyes drained from lack of sleep. That’s how all the border patrols looked. Worn out from watching and living.He was right. I requested that he didn’t come back until he found out everything that I was so desperate to know.“I need something else from you.” I finished the name I was writing on short piece of paper before handing it to him.He took the paper. Looked at down it and then back up at me. “What’s this?”“I need you to find out which one of those guys has been….” I chose my words wisely. “…making noise.”He smirked. “Just to confirm. You want me to check in on these Alpha’s.”“I heard there may be an Alpha or two looking to dethrone me.”Crane smirked but nodded.“Any update on that other thing?”“I heard a few things but I wanted to be sure before I bring them too you.”This time it was me who was nodding.“But don’

Zaya POVOne hour. That’s it. That’s how long it took for our dinner party to go south. But I wasn’t surprised one bit. I was ticking time bomb from the moments we took our seats.Around six thirty, everyone started flowing into the ballroom, which we had converted into a dining room for the night. Our actual formal dining room could only sit six comfortably. It was nine of us.Alex, Audrey, Anna, Tari, Brax, Leila, Trent, Godric, and me.This was the first night since the Half Moon’s packs arrival that we all ate dinner together. This was also the first night I hosted a formal dinner between our pack and another. Though I’m not sure if I am the host at all. Luna Tari did all the cooking. She made two different Italian dishes. Ricotta Gnudi, which looked like meatballs made of flour. And Creamy Chicken Marsala, which was a fancy chicken, mushroom, and pasta meal.I was so happy she made the Creamy Chicken Marsala, because I wasn’t sure how Godric and Alex would feel if they didn’t h

Zaya POVLeila looked horrified as we all sat stunned at Trent’s announcement. All of us quiet as we watched him stroll across the room toward the door Anna just exited. Mostly for different reasons.Leila, because this must have been her first time hearing about Anna being his mate. Same probably for the rest of the table.Audrey, like I, was probably more stunned by the fac that he would announce it like this. Why wouldn’t he talk to her in person first. Leila had been such a nice enough person. But even if she wasn’t, this wasn’t the way anyone should hear their boyfriend was breaking up with them.All the niceness fell from her face while staring at his back. Her peach-colored cheeks turned red as the name of our pack. And her eyes just as fierce. Her wolf was showing.Just before he met the threshold of the doorway, she hit the table and stood tall. Grabbing everyone’s attention. Including his.He turned to see her angry face.“Your mate!” She said loudly. “I thought I heard the

Anna POVI could hear Leila yelling from where I stood down the hall. I was standing there trying to calm my nerves and release the tension that had been building since she and Trent entered the room. Trying to reel my wolf in, but she was raging to be freed. Seeing that females paws on Trent only fueled the fire inside me. And to make matters worse, he didn’t come for me. Trent didn’t chase me when I walked away.I could barely hear Leila’s words from the growling inside me. But I heard her voice, none the less. I decided then that I couldn’t go back inside. I would only ruin the rest of the dinner. I nearly ran down the hall. Pushing past some of the workers who remained in the kitchen, I made it outdoors. Finally free to let my rage flag fly.The fresh air did nothing to calm the fire inside.I transitioned right outside the Alphas house. I didn’t wait until I reached the tree line to disrobe from my dress. I just took it off and started running. Soon my wolf was out, and I could f

Anna POVHer words were like music to my ears, but I couldn’t believe it until I hear them from trets mouth.“You should go find him, Anna. You too deserve each other, and you would be foolish to not except the Moon Goddess’s gift of true love. True companionship.”I panicked realizing she might be right. “Would it really be true, if he was in love with her. That doesn’t just go away just because you find a mate. It can’t be that easy, Zaya.” I said remembering that I practically pushed him away earlier. I told him to stay with her.She was quiet for a moment. Then she spoke up. “Remember, not even a year ago, you were teaching me about finding a mate. Our birthdays were coming up and you were so ready to find your mate. How did you imagine it happening for you?”I leaned back on the palm of my hands and looked at the sky. Trying to imagine what I thought it would be like. Unimaginable heat? Unthinkable lust? Undeniable love? But was that really us.I shook my head. “I don’t know what
