Smirking at Lana's reaction, he reached for the shampoo and conditioner on a tray glued to the wall. Most of the toiletries had a masculine scent, but having them was better than nothing. He squirted a handful into his palm and rubbed it over Lana's hair, massaging her scalp.“Relax, Lana. I have seen more naked women over the years. I won't bite unless you beg me one more time to.”His touch was tender and relaxing and she began to follow the pattern of his movement to get satisfaction. Tyler glided her head under the bathtub's faucet. He put on the cold water and ran it over her hair. He washed, massaged, and occasionally rubbed her neck until the foam thoroughly washed off. He did the same with the conditioner. Her hair was very much pleased, glistening under the light like the strike of thunder.Tyler took the body wash and squirted it onto the loofah. This was where his heart began to race. He looked at her attractive skin, her firm perky breast dangling with her pinkish nipples

The streaks of bright light coming into the room through the small separation between the drapes shine in Lana's face. It made her squint in discomfort. If only someone could get rid of such misery for her, she would be grateful. No one did that.She ran her hand over the soft sheets, intentionally extending it to the other end of the bed with hopes to find a hard muscle there. To her disappointment, she met emptiness. Only the wrinkled nature of that side gave away that a hefty person once lay there. Where did he go? Did he travel back without her? It was too early to start thinking.She grumbled and stood, still feeling like a drunk bride-to-be a morning after her bachelorette party. She fumbled with her steps, moving toward the light. Each step was a reminder of the sin of last night. She hissed and smiled at the shameful but fulfilling act. She has never felt so happy and free until this morning. Lana was sure the entire environment heard them from the screams.Whatever gave her th

“Stop the car, Viktor. I need to talk to Lana.”The van came to a screeching halt right outside the barriers into the packhouse. Viktor stepped out, walking over to the second van. Lana was sitting upright, arms crossed over her chest, eager to hear what Tyler had to say. “You are yet to learn more of me and this pack. Yes, you are my Luna, but don't talk back at me or bring up solutions that would worsen situations. You rule beside me. Not above me, Lana. Understood?”“Yes. I am sorry if I overstepped my boundaries. I just want the best for you and the lack.”“Your intentions aren't bad, but your projection is. When I ask your opinion, then you can give it. You will continue training with Elijah and Katida. You are wolfless, but your skills are spectacular. I need you strong and ready because something unpredictable might happen.”Yes, it would happen indeed. “I understand.”“Viktor told me that before Kamala jumped the window, you perceived that she was in trouble. How did that hap

Quickly, Kamala helped Lana get ready. Kaylee was organizing some she-wolves who were to stand guard. Katida was nowhere to be seen.Kamala dressed Lana in a simple purple gown that radiated under the moonlight. Lana remembered that the last time this happened, it was ripped off her hands by people she trusted. It was the best day of her life and turned into a memory of the worst day of her life. Today, that narrative changed. Her destiny to rule was getting fulfilled. As she swayed from side to side, turning around in excitement to make sure that all her details were right, Kamala wiped a fake tear. She was so happy but wasn't a crier. “I am happy for you. From being rescued to ruling us. That can only be the doing of the moon goddess.” She added more petals to the garland she had over Lana's head.Indeed, it was the doing of the Moon Goddess. She gave her a second chance at everything. What she did with it was entirely up to her. With one last glance at the mirror, she took the or

Tyler and Lana walked back to the party, which had devolved into something that looked straight out of a movie. Most of the pack members were fully transformed, others, were half-transformed as they sang and danced around the fire. Those who weren't involved were making out in different corners. Only those in patrol stayed alert, darting their eyes in different directions. Also, the place was more illuminated than how they left it before heading to the woods. Beautiful birds diverted in the night sky too. Lana was still flushed, wishing Tyler hadn't played with her like that. Still, in a daze, they walked together to the same chair, she had previously sat on. Katida saw them and came over.“Hey, Lana,” she said, “Let’s have a little chat.”Tyler wanted to object, but Lana patted him on the back reassuringly. She wasn't scared. In fact, it was a good opportunity for her to put Katida in her place by asking her to stay away from her mate.She reluctantly parted from Tyler and followed
