Luara's POV I had been ignoring Bryan, I didn't know what to say. The first day he tried talking to me calmly, trying to persuade me but with each try, I continued to ignore him.So as the next day came around, his anger started to show, he was getting more and more aggravated and frustrated with each day that passed.If he entered the room I was in, I'd leave. If he came into our bedroom just before I was going to sleep, I'd walk into the spare room opposite making sure to lock the door.Not that it stopped Bryan from knocking it down but after having done it four days in a row, he had gotten the point that he wasn't changing anything or helping himself.Bryan needed to realize that he needed to run his pack, not his father.Although his father is dead, Bryan still continues to use his father's diabolical practices. Bryan tried so hard to protect his mother from his father, he had fought his father for dominance and won but to his fault, he continues to allow his father to control h

Luara's POV It's been a few days since we arrived at Maxwell's territory and I've found myself sitting in the gardens with a few of the younger women in the pack, discussing general pack life and our own personal lives.I caught Bryan walking out the patio doors with Maxwell in the corner of my eye. I turned to watch as they walked out of the doors and stood next to the pack warriors that were guarding the pack house.Over the past few days, I'd been watching and taking notice of Bryan's behavior and how he changes in the presence of his grandfather, he's happier and more relaxed, and he feels safe in his presence as if he was a little kid again.I smiled as I looked toward my mate, but I was soon out of my thoughts as one of the women asked me a question and brought my attention back."How's living with an Alpha?" I said, repeating her question."Well, being the daughter of an Alpha, I've never known anything different."I looked at Bryan and noticed that he was listening to my conv

Bryan's POVTorey's comment made me internally laugh but I never replied, a dark smirk echoed over my face for a split second before I made my facial expressions blank.We had an important meeting and I didn't want to hold it off longer than it already had been.I nodded at Torey to follow me and we walked through the kitchen and towards my office. The meeting only consisted of Alphas which is unusual since our Betas are always in our meetings for protection in case of any unprovoked or unexpected attack.I wasn't the type of Alpha to attack you when you weren't looking or when your back was facing me. I wanted you to know that I was going to take your life away from you.Four Alphas would be present in this meeting: Torey, Maxwell, Lucas, and myself.Lucas had a strong alliance with Prince – his sister was Prince's mate which meant that if I was to attack Prince's territory then I would end up having a war with Lucas. The idea didn't faze me because if anything that would be a gain.

Luara's POV All that could be heard was deep and fierce heavy breathing. My palms were sweating and my body almost locked into the position I was in from the fear that was plaguing my whole being.The tension was thick and so clouding that it wasn't even allowing rational thoughts to flow through my mind."What are you doing here?" I inquired. It came out my mouth quietly, even quieter than a whisper."What the fuck do you mean Luara?" He growled fiercely, clearly furious with what he would see as a betrayal as I never mentioned my pregnancy. "I came to see you but instead find out your pregnant with my baby and you didn't tell me."His words continued to come out in growls and his wolf was definitely on edge begging to come out and take control.I attempted to get words out of my mouth, but I couldn't. It was as if there was an invisible force covering my mouth enabling me to speak.I could only sit there and stare at him, his eyes were showing me what he felt and it was pure anger.

Luara's POV Bryan presence rapidly changed as he stood straight, his stance turning intimating as he took a step closer to Melinda. He growled darkly at her, warning her to listen as he captured her attention while taking it off of me. "This information stays between us, it is not information you are allowed to share. If you fail to do so, I will carry out the threat I promised before."From the dark look in his eyes, his wolf was definitely lucking at the surface. His eyes had changed from emerald green to pitch black, his eyes narrowed on Mellissa as his wolf took over using his authority as an Alpha to command her to abide by his rules and demands.His words reminding me of the day that I had stopped him from taking her life as he dangled her by the scruff of her t-shirt as she sat in a prison cell months ago."Don't you have a mate to be with?" Bryan asked, his voice sounded calm, but you could hear the deadly tone in his voice as he raised his eyebrow in question.Melinda con
