Alpha Jasper's POVThis Magda is not entirely by chance here in Storm Forest.She is here with a plan. Jax, my wolf, could detect Rain's scent right from her. She was in Rain's company not long before I met her and not by accident but for quite some time. The two know each other; it was by no means a chance encounter. This woman knows more about my mate than she admits. 'Jace, join me in the office. I want to discuss something with you,' I mind link my Beta.Within minutes, my door opens and he steps inside. He drops onto the guest chair in front of my desk and looks at me. "Jasper, what's up? This facial expression indicates serious business is going on," he states and sits right up. "Jax caught Rain's scent on Magda and it wasn't light. The two know each other, Magda is here on an assignment," he states. "I don't know why Rain is hiding from me and sending her friend here." A feeling of immense disappointment comes over me, I just can't understand why m

Like a broken man, Kenston gets up and leaves.It breaks my heart to see a once influential man who ruled the pack next to my father with an iron hand so defeated because one of the pearls in his crown is untraceable. But his attitude is a reflection of my own feelings. And I am determined to fulfill my promise to him. Rain returns in my arms, exactly where the Moon Goddess destined her to be. I turn to Jace, who silently follows everything."We have the confirmation mostly in about Magda," I hold out to him. "Now try to bring Clair up to more speed. I can't wait to confront the woman with the information we have. However, she doesn't seem evil to me. I'm almost certain she was sent by Rain but I want to know the why". Jace still looks absent-minded, and I wait for him to speak. "We can get Alpha Esis involved in all this too. He is a big supporter of the mate bond. I'm sure he'll help get you and Rain back together. Besides being an excellent warrior, he

"Esis, it's almost midnight already. Can't you postpone your meeting with the Alpha until tomorrow morning?" I ask my husband as we get out of the car. We meet behind the parked vehicle and I hug him tightly. I am so horny, I want to get into bed with him as soon as possible. Four days without him seem like four years and I'm sure this make-up sex will be much better than the last one we had. Esis smiles and holds my face between his big hands."I know what you want, my dear. Rest assured, it's what I crave too. You know I can never get enough of you," he whispers huskily with a quick kiss. "But the rule is that I actually had to ask permission to enter another Alpha's pack. I didn't do that because I couldn't wait to be with you and that permission might take quite a few hours," he explains further. "But now that I have entered Alpha Jasper's territory undisturbed, it is my duty to inform him right away. Entering another Alpha's territory without authorization is tanta

Rain's POVImpatiently I wait for Magda and Esis' arrival.She wouldn't reveal anything on the phone about what her mission had accomplished. But from her voice I could tell she had good news. I stand on the balcony of my apartment and look at the driveway for the hundredth time. Technically, they should be here in two hours, but impatient as I am, I'm hoping for a miracle. I've instructed Eric to deploy the Royal Jet as close to their route as possible.First, they ride by car out of some werewolf pack and then board the Jet via a private airstrip. They should arrive at the airstrip any time now and then it's an hour and a half flight to the Kingdom. I sigh deeply, it's time to eat something. The pups are starting to get restless. Quickly I take a bath and put on a wide dress. As I step into the dining room, I smell meat and garlic bread. "There you are, Saray. How was your night?" asks Ralph as he kisses me on the forehead. "Did my pups keep you awake again?" I chuckle

And so it happens that we are all now in the Royal Jet, once again heading for Human Town.Esis traveled with us after the insistence of Ivor, who was looking for male company. So our schedule has changed, after Magda finishes with us, she does not travel back to the Palace with me. She stays behind with her mate and then leaves right away in the direction of Midnight Moon. Magda is elated but also fearful of the wolves in Esis's pack. A human Luna is not exactly what werewolves are hell excited about. My hands are on my now big round belly.The pups are remarkably quiet today, making me breathe a sigh of relief. Their constant movements often make me tired. And I can't really use that right now. I wonder what awaits me in Human Town; Magda is being very secretive about our visit. But I'm damn sure that something drastic is about to happen and therefore she could not tell me beforehand about it. Well, I trust her. Although I wish she had told me more abou
