Storm's POVEven though I had been expecting the kiss, nothing stopped it from shocking the living daylights out of me. I stiffened for a second before parting my lips and letting him in. I took charge of the kiss, pulling him closer to me and deepening the kiss. I sank my fingers into his hair and tugged at them lightly, I could taste the wine and pizza he ate and I knew he could taste mine as well. Our tongues fought for dominance and I ended up winning. The kiss broke apart after some minutes as we came up for air. The sexual tension in the room could be cut with a knife. We were breathing hard, Noah's lips were red and swollen and I was sure mine was as well but that didn't stop me from pulling him back for another kiss. Noah's fingers raised my shirt and caressed my bare skin, his fingers grazed against my breasts and moved down to my belly, he stayed there for a few minutes, rubbing my skin. I was too impatient to wait, so I grabbed his hands and brought them up to my breasts,

Storm's POVI felt a million sensations of pain move through my body as my back hit the counter, I almost blacked out from the pain. I should have known Bianca was going to retaliate, she wasn't the kind to go down quietly. I saw her hand coming down to slap me, I grabbed it and twisted it with all my strength. "Ah!" She cried out, I kept twisting until I heard her bones crack. Her other hand's grip on my hair loosened and I pushed myself up. Bianca was in tears, clutching her broken hand but I didn't care, I gripped her shirt and dragged her towards me."You want a fight, huh? I'll give you a fight." I raised my hand to slap her when someone held my arm. I was shocked, I turned ready to transfer my anger to the intruder. I froze when I saw Noah."Storm, you don't want to hurt her. I'm here now, you don't need to defend yourself anymore." Noah said and dropped my hand. I stepped back and looked at my feet like they were the most interesting things ever. I wanted the ground to open up

Storm's POVWhy the hell was I doing stretches by 4. 30 am? Who in their right mind would choose to want to leave their bed this early? This was pure punishment. Noah must be punishing me for agreeing to participate in the Luna events. Such a cruel man, couldn't he have thought about something else as a punishment, inside of me being up this early in the cold? He had brought me to the forest to run and practice.I sent a glare to him. He was bent over stretching as well. His running short clung to his thighs exposing his well-defined calves. His sweatshirt fitted him perfectly, and I could see his muscled biceps. I wanted to grab him and back him up against a tree Damn, this man was fine. Noah cleared his throat and I snapped out of my trance. "Are you okay?" He asked concerned."Of course. I'm perfect." I said, twisting my waist so it would look like he didn't affect me. He nodded. After a few stretches, he jumped up. "Alright, that's enough for stretching. It's 5 am on the dot. L

Storm's POV"What the hell?" Pixie cut shrilled."What did you do to her?" Braids said, her eyes widening." It's what I haven't done to her that should be your concern. You think you can just walk all over me and I'll let you get away with it. You don't know who you're messing with." " Let her go or I'm going to scream." Braids said."Sweetheart, scream all you want. Your friend screamed as well, no one is coming in to save you and if they manage to do, I'm going to make sure they don't get out." I smirked at them.Pixie cut tried to make a move at me. " Don't even think about it. One wrong move and I'm snapping your friend's neck. Step the hell back. We're going to have a little conversation." She saw that I wasn't joking and recoiled. They both stood side by side holding on to each other, still in their towels."Now, I want to know why you ladies decided that I was someone you could mess with. I am the Luna of this pack, you don't treat your Luna that way." " You don't deserve to

Noah's POVMom gasped, unable to believe that her daughter was standing up for herself. "How dare you talk to me like that? What in the Moon goddess' name is going on? What has gotten into my children that they think they can talk to me this way?" Mom choked back a sob and brought out a hankie to wipe her tears. I could swear I heard Storm snicker but when I looked at her, she had a stoic expression on her face."Whatever. Storm, we'll catch up later. I'm really sorry I couldn't stay longer but since I'm still in town, I'll reach out. Bye Noah, take good care of Storm or else." She made a gesture of slicing her throat. She gave Amanda and Mom a glare before leaving the diner. I was too shocked to say anything, this Tasha was so unlike the sister I had grown up with.Mom cried loudly, drawing the attention back to her. Amanda was hugging her and trying to comfort her. I stood and moved towards her but she stopped me."Stay away from me. I don't know what you did to Tasha, my sweet gi
