“I'm telling you, Dad. This is all a misunderstanding! What would I be interested in stealing Corinne’s letters anyway?” Diego continued to try to justify himself to Eli, with his voice echoing through the empty hallway and making Hunter feel more and more like he wanted to rip his face in half.“Gregory pressed the messenger and he said the letters would be under the floorboards of our old hunting cabin, Diego! Only you have access to that place, now.” The Alpha of the Tigers growled, with a mix of anger and disappointment “How could you do something like that to your sister? She might have thought we had abandoned her...”"Do not exaggerate. Corinne could never doubt her beloved father’s love for her, could she?” Diego seems to want to sound warm, but his gritted teeth make it difficult “Besides, it'

"Are you serious?" Declan laughed, surprising her “I was thinking Hunter was a big son of a bitch, who had rejected you as his mate several times and still dared to act all possessive around you, but... Come on, Cory. You said things have changed a lot since the first time you saw each other, right? What prevents his feelings from changing?”“I'd like to think so, but... Hunter and I have had plenty of moments where he's had the opportunity to tell me he's changed his mind, but... He never did. And, I think it was pretty obvious after that scene with the elders, but he's not the type of man who spares words to express what he's thinking. That's because...” Corinne swallowed hard “I've been wondering if perhaps the best thing for me would be to consider Calibur just a place I can visit from time to time. Living here would be incredible, but at the same time terrible. And I thin

“Stop right now Colton!” Octavia growled and, suddenly, in the midst of her panic and despair, Corinne had someone in front of her again, protecting her “If you want to touch this girl, you'll have to get past me first!”“And me!” Isabelle spoke and, to Corinne’s surprise, she also stood in front of her, next to Octa “You will not falsely accuse our Luna! Much less touch her!”“If your pack doesn’t protect their own kind, then we do!” Aiden spoke, creating another piece on the wall in front of Corinne “Stay away from our Luna if you don't want to suffer the consequences!”“You stupid tigers! Do you have any idea who they are accusing? This girl waited for days for her family to arrive! How dare they say she would do something s

Even after two days, Hunter still felt terribly helpless when he looked at that damn closed door. He could have isolated those stupid old men, helped Eli intimidate the other tigers who had come here to look for the bastards, and prepared his wolves to fight every single member of the Valiant pack who was planning on coming here to try to kill Corinne first, during or after the trial...But he hadn't been able to do the main thing. Prevent her from locking herself in her own room as if she were really guilty.“Corinne...” he knocked on the door gently, before turning the handle “I know what you're going to say, but I brought your dinner and this time you have to eat it. It’s not enough that you decided to isolate yourself in that room.”"I'm not hungry." A murmur answered him and, as in

“Get out of my way! You can’t stop me from seeing my sister!” Nicole screamed, loud enough for Corinne to hear her clearly on the other side of the door, even though the sounds of the commotion outside were rivaling her words “Get out! Now!"“Please, Princess Nicole, step aside!” the tiger guards practically begged “She already tried to kill Prince Declan. If he dies, she will definitely do the same to you, to have a clear path to the title of Alpha. Even Diego has had his security increased, as the council seems satisfied with the stance he took in standing against Alpha...”"Shut up! Never say again my brother is going to die!” Nicole demanded, her voice breaking, “And never say again that my sister was responsible for what happened! You guys should be looking for the culprit, not stopping me from ge
