Abbie's POVHunter kissed me, pulling me by my waist and making me straddle him. The big gown was getting in our way, so he pushed it off from both sides by the skirt, making both of my legs become exposed so I could straddle him. Don't worry, though; we are completely alone and have no one to bother us or eavesdrop on us.I smiled, wrapping my arms around his neck, and kissed him passionately. "I should have looked for you more, Abbie. But every time I came close to finding you, it was as if you were running from me. Our little game of cat and mouse chase without us ever being aware." he whispered, holding me by my ribs and nudging his nose softly against mine, making me smile."You know, the first time I found a clue about where you were... you were working at a tiny cafe, Clarissa's, I think?" he says, making my eyes wide in shock. " You only worked three weeks there, then, puff... vanished. You gave me no chance to ever talk to you; by the time I got there, they said you had qui

Abbie's POV"Come on, let's dance a little. Maybe it'll help get your mind at ease." Hunter proposed, making me grunt in protest. I see what he's doing. I'm not a dummy. He chuckles, kissing my lips and cupping my cheeks as he judges my nose against his. "Please, baby? Go and have some fun with me." he pleads, giving me his puppy eyes as he pouts. I roll my eyes but chuckle, seeing how cute he's being. He's trying to keep me busy, so I budge, forgetting all about this for now, and I don't ask him any further questions. Slick devil, isn't he? But what can I do? He really is a charming devil. "He better have good answers for me later, Merida. Or he's sleeping on the couch tonight." I say, making Merida chuckle. "Abbie, I hate to tell you, but you know damn well he's not. You're going to be wrapped up under those sheets and banging that sexy god all night. I know you're damn well nowhere near done with that hunk." she says, making me want to burst out in laughter. I grabbed his hand a

✨Abbie's POV ✨The rest of the night went by in a flash. I couldn't help but stare at Chloe as she played with Armand, feeding him cookies and watching them smile. If I were a complete stranger, I'd say, ‘Wow, he's such a great dad.’ He was so attentive to his little girl. But I know the real man. Cold-hearted, ruthless, and heedless. He's an alcoholic egomaniac who only looks for his own good. He tried to approach me several times, but Hunter knew I felt uneasy, so he stayed by my side all night. Maybe he was scared of Hunter because I saw him talking to Armand. He looked horrified at whatever Hunter said to him, but I was glad because, after that, he no longer bothered me.I tried my best to enjoy the night, I did... but I just couldn't. When the party finally ended, I happily went back to the room. I removed my shoes, removed the dress, and changed into Hunter's sweats and t-shirt. I am so ready to call it a night. 'I'm done. I really am. I'm going to go to sleep and forget this

Abbie’s POV"Careful. Careful." I warned Marissa to be careful as I helped her settle into bed. My family had come by to check on her as well, and let me tell you, they were equally upset that she left the infirmary ahead of time. My little sister, Jesse, looked at us worriedly, holding her bear tightly as if for dear life. Her eyebrows were knitted and she pouted, looking at Marissa worriedly. Marissa knew Jesse was a kind soul, she looks at her, giving her smile and winking at Jesse to let hr know that she was ok; but I knew Jesse better. She may smile at you, but she will not stop worrying until she was a hundred percent certain that you were ok."Mommy, is Marissa going to be ok?" SHe asks mom, making mom smile at her, kissing the top of her head and sighs. "Yes, baby. We'll make sure she gets plenty of rest when we are back home, ok" Mom "How do you feel, honey? Would you like me to bring you something to drink? Are you hungry?" my mom asked her, making Marissa smile. "No, ma'

Hunter's POVI sat at my desk, going over countless papers in my desk and arguing with Kaiden, Brandon, and Alarick over what to do with Tara."I don't care. I'm tired of pretending to be fucking nice to her. I'm done. I'm done! I want her far away from my pack. Far away from my mom, from my sister! I want her far... far away from Abbie! Don't you guys get it? She's a fucking menace." I said as I clenched my frustrated jaw, banging my hand on the desk. "Dude! I get it. We all got stuck with a psycho bitch to keep away from our lunas, but the bottom line is, we still don't know who she is working for. We need more time." Kaiden says, making me slam my palm on the desk. "Not. My. Problem! I'm done, man. I'm done. I was nice to that wench for long enough, Kaid! I want her far away from me and everyone in my pack, especially from Abbie. I don't want her near Abbie because if she tries to hurt her, so help me, Kaiden, I will rip her apart. Didn't you see the damage she did to Marissa? Sh
