I AM HIS NOW
Rebecca’s storyI shivered as I watched him in the doorway, taking one step at a time towards me. The tension was becoming unbearable and everything seemed to be very well put together. Although I was initially afraid, because I had no way of knowing his reactions, I could now say I was a lucky woman. So many werewolf tales and I fell in love with one. There was no doubt about it, me and Dominic were meant for each other. We had that pure love for everyone and everything, against all odds. Also, we went through a lot together, and even though life tore us apart at some point, we just found the path that brought us together again, and this time I felt it was forever.My heart sank in my throat, anticipating what was about to happen. I glanced at Dominic, who seemed calmer, but maybe I was wrong. I knew he wanted this for a long time and so did I. It was such a painful desire that I could hardly breathe in anymore.It was with my thought that I called him to give myself to him, to give

SO CLOSE TO HIM
Rebecca’s storyThe next morning, I honestly thought Dominic was going to leave. The empty space next to me in bed made me think so, but the trail of his scent and the sound of the coffee machine were enough to convince me to take a shower and go spend some more time with him. I loved the sheets we made love in. They still have the imprint of our need for each other, the passion that consumed us last night.A shiver ran through me, thinking of the way he adored me, the way he laid each kiss so gentle yet so passionate. Dominic was the kind of man who gave his all, body and soul, not to mention his heart. In our intimate closeness, I felt it all at once.The water was warm, so I spent a few minutes longer than I had expected, indulging myself. Dominic was still waiting for me. I’d forgotten why I’d come here, who I’d come to. I came here with such a clear mission. But everything had been taken care of. The local authorities were probably already dealing with those concerned. Now it was

THINGS WILL CHANGE
Rebecca’s storyThe quickness with which he told me this made me realize he wasn’t kidding. He was still gazing into the distance over my shoulder. I could feel his heavy breathing in the back of my head. I twisted in his arms until I was facing him. My eyes begged for an explanation. Tears slowly formed and threatened to roll down my already burned cheeks. I wanted to keep myself strong, but the weight of what he had just said was pressing my heart so hard that not only could I barely breathe, but I was having a hard time making a coherent sentence.I stood like a rock, motionless despite everything. Digging my fingernails deep into his arms, I was seeking support so I wouldn’t collapse. It must have been a few good minutes before I took my first breath and wrapped my arms around his neck. I bet he already knew my answer because he hugged me back. His hug was so full of meaning, love and warmth, but I also felt a little fear. Holding me closer to his chest was like he never wanted to

LAST DAY IN PARADISE
Dominic’s storyThe days I spent here with Rebecca were dreamy, but even now, after all this time, I couldn’t mark her. She’s barely gotten used to the idea that I was a raging wolf, and now I had even suggested she marry me. It wasn’t even a question. I had so many problems in my life and so many secrets that Rebecca didn’t know yet. How could I make her all mine? Anyway, I didn’t feel any danger of her backing out.It was still evening when I proposed we just go for a walk on the huge beach in front of the house. And there she was, in the dim light of the moon. In a casual red floral dress that barely covered her upper legs, with her hair in a ponytail and a small shoulder bag and her sunglasses. She was a natural beauty. My eyes got mesmerized by her ravishing being. It was just a dress, a bag and a pair of sunglasses, but the way she wore them made her so desirable. I could already imagine my hands tracing the fire under that dress and her responding to my every touch. I just wa

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
Dominic’s storyI’ve barely been able to sleep since my conversation with Declan. Zack was up to something and now he had accomplices. What was worse, those accomplices were from Declan’s circle. I was still wondering what Barnett was doing in the clinic?What was more important was that Rebecca was under no circumstances to find out.We only had time to sip our coffee, and we were off to the airport. I so wanted to see Declan today to try to unwind Zack’s visit. “Are you sure you’re okay, love?” suddenly asked Rebecca as she found her seat on the plane. I could hardly mask my concern, and she seemed to realize that something was wrong. Lucky for me, I could blame our quick departure. “I’m fine, I guess. I’m just sorry we had to leave Bali like that. But I promise we’ll make time to come back.”“I’d like that too. I’m sorry we had to leave like this. But we’ll have to get back to our business” “There’s a big event coming up soon, my love, and I wouldn’t dream of you not joining me.

DOING MY JOB
Rebecca’s storyLeaving so immediately as soon as we got home intrigued me so much, but I wasn’t too worried. Declan was his best friend, and I really wasn’t that concerned. Anyway, today, even though I was tired from so many hours of flying, I intended to meet up with Eve. I really wanted to involve her in my next project. Plus, I really needed a little fun. But before I met Eve, I had to see Logan. He just phoned to tell me there was a new assignment. I couldn’t go to the agency yet, so I was going to meet him at my apartment. “Welcome, Logan. Please, come in,” I urged as soon as I met him at the door. “Wow, you’re so tanned! I see you got your Bali sun right,” he couldn’t help his comment or smile. “Hey, cut the jokes and come on in. We have things to talk about,” I replied breathlessly, slamming the door behind him. “Tell me, I know you followed the case of the rescued girls in Bali. I want some updates” Logan made himself comfortable on the living room couch, sipping from th

A SERIOUS TALK
Rebecca’s storySomehow, I had no choice but to take Emily’s hand and walk out of the restaurant. First stop was my car. This man was causing me anxiety, and I barely started the car. It was clear he was following me. I still hadn’t even gotten over the episode in the woods near the set where Dominic was shooting. Out of fear, I didn’t return home to my apartment but to Dominic’s house. Luckily, he was there. I almost slammed the door when I walked in. “Rebecca?” He asked worriedly approaching us. I locked the door, then looked at him with wide eyes. “I saw him, it was him... he’s following me...” I was breathing heavily and barely keeping my heartbeat in check. “Who’s following you?” Dominic’s voice though it was of normal intensity. I could barely hear him. He then rushed to get me a glass of water, because I was hyperventilating. With difficulty, I sat down on the sofa in the living room. After a few deep breaths, I recovered a little. “Okay, you’ve calmed down. Now start tel

BEING TRUTHFUL
Dominic’s story“You have to get out of New York! And as soon as possible!” Lost in thought, I flinched when Dominic stormed into the house. But even so, I wasn’t at all thrilled with the way he approached the issue. “What do you mean, leave New York? I don’t think I heard that very well. And besides, why would I leave Dominic? You think I’m afraid of that man, Zack? No way!”“I advise you not to play with his nerves. You don’t know him; you don’t know what he’s capable of.” I could barely control my own nerves. “You know what? I’m not afraid of him? Why would I leave? Why would I change or even stop my life and leave the places where I was born? My hometown? Never!” Dominic’s face suddenly changed. He had become angry, but I would do nothing to calm the situation. Why should I?“I don’t think you understand how serious this is. This maniac has been hunting me for decades and now that he’s found me, he won’t stop at just me. He’s going to hit you too!” “I understand very well! Wh

A NEW ALLY
Rebecca’s storyI wished Dominic had an answer to my question. And it wasn’t the first time I’d asked him this, but each time he avoided the subject. I didn’t know the reason, but it was already frustrating. I was also the one who gave up looking for explanations. And it wasn’t because I didn’t really want to know, because I felt a tremendous pain in my heart, but because somewhere along the way I realized that this subject was affecting him, too.The love between us was growing every day. Every second it deepened. And he never missed a moment to show me that. Even if there was this one doubt, my soul was at peace. I didn’t even feel how this week passed. In between preparations for Emily’s book release and the premiere of Dominic’s movie, I also had some time to meet up with Logan to discuss the progress of the drug case. And because I had planned to involve Eve in this book project today, I was going to meet with her. I needed her as an ally. She was a very important pawn. She w

NEW FIRENDS NEW ISSUES
Rebecca’s storyEmily Parker’s book launch day. The place she chose was, as I expected, the Karma ballroom. It seemed so right for her. I was still at Dominic’s house, trying to carefully choose what I was going to wear for the evening. The situation was the same for him. In the end, I chose a knee-length, red dress with straps and lace back. I tied my hair into a bun at the base of my neck with a few curls framing my face.“Wow, you look beautiful, love!” “You’re no less,” I replied, smiling, delighting in how perfect and masculine he looked. The black ebony suit suited him, and the back combed hair made him even sexier. He came closer, as if reading my mind, and reached around my waist, holding me tight. His musky scent was driving me crazy, and he knew it and even took advantage of my weakness for him. “Is your lipstick transfer resistant?” He asked, running his thumb over my lips. As soon as he confirmed this, he seized my mouth in a deep, passionate kiss. I returned his kiss
