Hey, you beautiful lot! I am sorry for the delay in updates last week. I am rather run down, I have had kidney stones and tonsilitis this week, so I am struggling to focus because of the pain meds or the fact my head/throat feels like they are trying to kill me! I hope to be better by Monday :) And I will continue to update regularly from then on! If you haven't already, check out my other books here on GN while you wait for me to get my butt in gear and get well. -- Hunting Their Defiant Luna Blurb: Little wolf believes she can run, thinks she can hide from me! Silly little wolf, doesn't she know we will always find her! There is no place on God's green earth, my brother, and I will not chase her too! Just to see the tears rain from her pretty blue eyes as we, yet again destroy everything she holds dear and watch from the shadows as she is forced to return home- to us! To her destiny! Text: You can run, but you can't hide little wolf! *** Blamed for the brutal murd
Lottie POV Stretching out on Knox's large bed, my head softly pounding from the insane amount of alcohol we had consumed last night before we had passed out in a heap of sweaty limbs and lovers' lips. My finger reached under the plump pillow, and I smirked as they collided with the warmth that could have only been a body. "Knox!" I whispered to Sage, who moaned in agreement. Opening my eyes, I smirked, realising I was right and the body I had groped was, in fact, the tattooed and ripped body of Knox. "How did you know?" Sage asked her tone laced with amusement that made me roll my eyes. For days, she had been dropping hints that I had ignored but understood perfectly well! She believed they were our mates! But she was wrong; I would feel more than just an overwhelming need to drop to my knees and open my mouth... or legs if they were! However, it didn't stop her constant prattling: "Why are you so in sync with them?" "Don't you love how our bodies tingle when they touch us?""Do
Knox POV*With Lottie's hand gently placed in mine and my eyes glued to her delicate features as we descended the grand staircase to greet our guests, she was utterly breathtaking in a gown of silk that was almost as pale as her skin and icey hair. Even in her mask, I could see the nerves eating at her; she wasn't used to being the centre of attention, something I liked about her! Squeezing her hand reassuringly, I smiled at her, my eyes glistening with pride at having her on my arm. As my date, as my lover, but most importantly as my mate! "You look beautiful!" I whispered into her ear as we reached the party, and all eyes turned to look at the beautiful creature in the ivory dress beside me.* "You're a piece of shit!" I heard her voice boom through my dream, making me groan as I buried my head in the pillow. "Knox!" Lottie's voice cut through the last shred of the dream I was holding on to; lifting up off the bed with a sigh, my sleep-ridden eyes found her standing at the foot of
Kane POVI knew this reaction was a possibility when I decided to take matters into my own hands and force my father's hand. Did it feel good that I had gotten her drunk and convinced her being out mate was a good idea? Well, it didn't feel amazing! But it felt a hell of a lot better than watching her father and mine force her to marry that jumped-up prick! So there was that. I knew I had played dirty and should have trusted that she would make the right decision and choose Knox or I over that slimeball. But simply put, I didn't trust him not to beat me to it and force her hand. Like I had! Did that make me as bad as Mike? Sighing, feeling her frustrations through the link, I ran a hand through my hair and looked over at the closed bathroom door Knox had disappeared into. Licking my dry lips, I pulled the bedroom door open, clinging to the towel wrapped around my waist. I headed one door down to the spare room Knox, and I used to use for gaming. I pushed it open, expecting to see
Lottie POV"KNOX TOO!" Connie gibed, rolling her eyes at me. "Damn, here I was thinking you were a prude, but actually, here you were, allowing the twins to spite-roast you!" She laughed, a blush spreading across my cheeks as memories of the three of us danced through my mind, reminding me of how right she actually was. "Wow, people are not what they seem!" She laughed, crossing her arms over her chest, her boobs spilling over the top of her dress, but it was the jealousy clear on her face stealing the attention. A part of me felt bad for her; she had always wanted Kane or Knox for herself; everyone knew that! Yet another part of me wanted to scratch her eyes out simply because she had touched what was mine. "Mine!" Sage mimicked my word, and I felt her ruffle her fur at the word, a sense of satisfaction washing over her. "I like the way that sounds." She purred like a pleased kitten, making me snort. I hadn't had time to think about what that meant for me. Did I want the twins? Wa
Lottie POV "Lottie?" Knox asked, his tone growing just as frustrated as Lilly's features, a dazzling reminder that they were related. "Not now, Knox!" I hissed, shutting him out for the time being. "So the night you caught Mike cheating.." Lilly asked, her eyes dancing with mine as she searched my face for the truth. "..And you got lost after the bar and came back smelling of..." "Knox!" I nodded, deciding to just be open about it all. I was in too deep now; lies would only complicate things further. "But nothing.." "Stop!" Lilly growled, holding her hands up in the air in pure frustration. "I get it!" She bobbed her head, her tone laced with unspoken hurt. Stepping into her, I wanted to hug her and ask Connie to leave so I could explain without her sticking her nose in every two seconds, but the way Lilly's eyes levelled on me told me that wasn't about to happen! "Get out!" She growled, stomping towards me and grabbing the dress I had just discarded; with a snarl, she shoved i
Knox POV I loved my sister, and I would defend her against anyone, but right now, I wanted to throttle the bitch; tightening my arms around my little mate, I narrowed my eyes on my stubborn brat of a sister and said nothing, watching her squirm under my gaze. "What?" Lilly snapped, crossing her arms over her chest like she used to when I caught her snooping through my stuff, which was always a sign of her guilt. Feeling Lottie shake in my arms, I frowned and pulled away from her; she needed to get away from these vipers before someone poisoned her! Cupping Lottie's chin in my hands, I lifted her head, forcing her piercing blue eyes to look at me, noting that they were glossed over with the tears she had refused to shed. I wondered if she knew how beautiful she was. Wiping the tears away with my thumb, I bit my lip, trying to calm the beast inside me. "I'm ok!" She whispered with a nod. Shaking my head, I leaned my forehead against hers. "The only time I want to see these eyes f
Kane POV "How do you plan to keep her from attending?" Knox asked as we stepped outside Lilly's room. "With him." I stated, nodding to the male walking towards us, dressed in a plain black suit, no doubt one my sister had picked out given the expensive sheen to it. "Sebastian!" I nodded, holding my hand out for my sister's mate to shake. After leaving my sister's room earlier, I had sensed the drama about to unfold, and to ensure everything went smoothly tonight, I had taken matters into my own hands, something that I had apparently become accustomed to doing. Having called a meeting with my father and her mate, I filled them in on our situation, both of them understanding that something had to be done to keep Lilly in check tonight, not just for Charlotte but for her mate's reputation and our families. Sebastian needed this alliance just as much as we did. My father wouldn't be around forever, and it wouldn't do him much good, having already made enemies of the future Alpha and
