Lisa A tear slipped down my cheek. “I’m sorry, Lace. I know this makes everything harder for you. I told him it doesn’t matter how we feel or if there is a mate bond or not. This can never happen again.” Rowan’s face dropped, a growl slipping through his lips in frustration. “No, Lis. You do not need to worry about how this affects me. He is your mate and, as someone who tried, that’s not an easy bond to fight. I would never want you to and miss out on a love like Fin and I have. We will figure it out.” I hiccuped, trying to keep the sobs pressing against my throat from escaping. “How? You know the council would never allow it.” Lacey sighed. “I know the elders won’t like it, but a chunk of the council is in this room right now,” Lacey said, pointing between her, Sydney, and myself. “We will figure out a way to tell the elders. We just have to be smart about it, make them feel like it’s their idea, and i

Lisa Sydney finally lost her battle against laughter, the sound bursting out of her as she doubled over slightly clutching her stomach. I glared at her. “You are a horrible friend.” “That,” she said between laughs, “is absolutely not true. This is just the funniest possible way for this to happen.” Another knock sounded at the door. “Lisa?” Lacey called again, suspicion clear in her voice now. “Why can I hear Sydney cackling through the door?” My panic only worsened. “Oh my goddess she knows.” “She does not know,” Sydney promised quickly, though the smile still tugged at her lips. “Lacey just notices everything.” Which honestly did not make me feel better. Rowan looked entirely too pleased with himself standing beside me while I spiraled. The bond practically hummed between us now that we were standing close again, warm sparks dancing underneath my skin every time he looked at me. It was distracting. Dangerously distracting. “You smell nervous,” Rowan murmu

Lisa Sydney’s face drained of color as her eyes bounced between the two of us. The fury that had burned so brightly in her expression cracked apart into pure shock. Her mouth opened and closed twice before any sound actually came out. “What?” she finally whispered. I wrapped my arms around myself, suddenly hyper aware of the state I was in. My hair was a mess, my lips swollen, my dress wrinkled beyond saving. There was absolutely no hiding what had happened in this room. Rowan leaned casually against the wall beside the door like Sydney hadn’t just caught us in the middle of the exact disaster everyone feared would happen one day. “Well,” he drawled lightly, “this is awkward.” Sydney whipped toward him so fast I almost laughed despite the panic clawing at my chest. “You shut the fuck up right now.” Rowan lifted his hands slightly in surrender, though the amusement never fully left his face. Lucille practically purred in my mind at the sight of him standing there so c

Rowan My heart froze in my chest. A throbbing entered my chest as I scanned Lisa’s face. I could see the regret written across her features. Still, she didn’t pull away, just rested comfortably in my lap. Nothing had ever felt more right. I knew what she was saying and why she was saying it. I knew this bond would cause both of us trouble, but after having her in my arms, the scent of vanilla and cinnamon filling my nose and tugging at something deep inside of my soul, demanding I pull her closer, that I keep her near me and protect her forever. Her lips quivered and tugged harder at my heart. I pasted a small smile on my lips, feeling them tug up just at the corners enough to draw her attention to them. “Well, I never have been one for following rules and regulations, or giving a single fuck about what anyone thinks, not the coven or council or packs. So we will see.” I answered, making Lisa let out a h

Lisa “Still trying to hide, little wolf?” My body shook, my breath escaping me too quickly as his words sunk into me, a slickness forming between my thighs. “I’m not hiding, I just…” My words cut out as Rowan leaned closer, his lips hovering, just not touching my ear. “Just avoiding the inevitable. I know you feel it too, Lisa,” Rowan whispered before his lips pressed to the shell of my ear, lighting an unfamiliar fire inside of me like I had never felt before. A small whimper escaped me as Rowan pressed his body against mine, his massive member pressing against my stomach as his lips trailed down my neck and then back up towards my jaw, my cheek, and finally my lips. His lips pressed firmly to mine and my body lit up, reacting without caring about any of the things my mind knew, like how this bond was impossible from the start. Lucille yanked that thought from my mind, pu

LisaI stayed in the room long after Lacey had to leave, too afraid to try to move to my own room. I wasn't able to handle the eyes on me, to feel the judgment in the looks that lingered just a little too long, and, most of all, I was completely unprepared for the possibility that I would have to face him again so soon.I knew he hadn’t left. The bond still sparked just underneath my skin. Every time I moved closer to the window, a magnetic force would pull my eyes to the outskirts of the garden where he still stayed. The party had long since ended and the mess was cleaned, but the tables remained for the meeting that would start all too soon.The sun was beginning to throw its first rays across the sky. The knot in my stomach grew as I tried to consider the possibility of staying in here, pretending to be ill, and skipping the meeting. But the elders would never allow it. They insisted we needed to show a united front at all times. If the people saw
