TARA

Activities like these were fast becoming one of my favorite things to do, and that was doing absolutely nothing!

We drove slowly in complete silence, the only sounds permeating the air around us being that of the car engine and Nadia snoring softly at the back of the car. Aidan’s eyes were on the road ahead of us, his left hand on the steering wheel, while his right hand was laced with mine over the console between our seats.

It was perfect.

And the only imperfect moment in all of it was when we arrived in front of our house, signaling the end of the evening for us. I didn’t want it to end. I didn’t want to say “See you tomorrow,” but we couldn’t exactly remain seated in the car, basking in each other's warmth, when Nadia’s neck was cranked in an uncomfortable position at the back.

Aidan must have thought of this too, because he brought our interlocked hands up to his lips, and pressed a lingering kiss on the back of my palm that left me reeling.

“I’ll help get her inside.”

  • Alpha Aidan's Rejection   110: Feelings For Aidan

    TARA The attack from the Stonewolves had become stale news. People freely went about their businesses now, so it was no hassle for me to go restocking Aidan’s kitchen with foodstuff one week after everything happened. I had to admit, it wasn’t easy feeding a man the size and stomach of Aidan, but what was a girl to do when he took care of her and their child with so much dedication? Aidan could as well eat portions meant for me and Nadia combined and doubled, and he still wouldn’t be satisfied. It was why the foodstuffs in his house never lasted more than two weeks without needing a restock. His love for food was what made me conclude that it was why Aidan could not only whip up meals that could pass for a chef’s standards, but could also make actual fancy meals! Back to shopping. I loved the activity’s semblance of serenity, so this was a win win. And since Nadia was with Esme for the Saturday afternoon, it was the perfect way for me to spend it. With the trolley in han

  • Alpha Aidan's Rejection   109: Home Safe

    TARA Everything Aidan said made sense. They were going to try to reverse the Stonewolves’ curse, and if anyone would have the resources to do so, it was going to be Aidan, whether in Vermont Pack or Attica. But if that didn’t turn out to be successful, we would have to stick to other means of protection, and that included our wolf sides. I wasn’t much of a shifter. I couldn’t even remember the last time I saw my wolf. After everything that happened all those years ago, I couldn’t help but feel more vulnerable than safe when I wasn’t in control of my physical body. Not after I’d been stabbed in the back, almost taken out at the hospital where I should have been recovering, and having to spend years trying to heal those wounds. I knew my wolf was capable of protecting me, but I just had to get to trust myself on that again. And I had to do it for Nadia too. If she was going to have a chance at being in tune with her wolf side, she had to actually experience her wolf side. No one was

  • Alpha Aidan's Rejection   108: Your Safety

    AIDAN As soon as Tara and Nadia were out of sight, I did the first thing that came to mind. Made sure the multiple entrances to the house were well secured from intruders and activated the security alarm system around the house. I was back in my spot before Tara came back out, hoping that this plan I had in my mind worked. Having Stonewolves spring up where they both lived was a chance I wasn’t willing to keep taking. Not after the scared look on Tara’s face whenever they were mentioned, bringing back the trauma of her experience with them that prevented her from being able to close her eyes to sleep for months before now. “How badly was Jace hurt?” Tara asked, cutting through my thoughts with the sound of her voice, eyes trained on me from across the kitchen island as she picked on her cuticles, nervous about the welfare of her friend, Jenna, and Jace. I shook my head, voice low as I watched her advance. “He’s out cold.” The outline of her neck held in a gasp as she asked with

  • Alpha Aidan's Rejection   107: How Bad

    TARA “I can’t ask you to come with me, Tara. Not when Nadia is all alone at her training,” Jenna said, the second we got outside the restaurant, her eyes still brimming red with unshed tears. It had been only months since Aidan and Jace first came into Vermont Pack, but I couldn’t blame Jenna for falling head over heels for Aidan’s beta in such a short time. I mean, the same thing happened with me and Aidan. As much as Jenna seldom talked about the dynamics of her relationship with him, I knew she cared deeply for him, but she still had other’s interests at heart, even when she was currently breaking with the news about Jace being hurt. “Jenna,” I breathed, scared shitless, and worried to my bones for both my friend and my daughter. “Will you be okay?” She shook her head once, her eyes full and almost spilling over. “I have to be. Be on the lookout, and avoid them as much as you can, okay? Get Nadia to safety and stay indoors till you hear it’s okay to come out.” I nodded, pulli

  • Alpha Aidan's Rejection   106: We Have To Go

    TARA Someone else could have been fooled by Kayla acting as if she knew nothing about the text I received on my day off, but even if I hadn’t suspected her, it was still her number that sent me the message. “What text?” I repeated her last question out loud, chuckling lightly, already irritated at the fact that she was ruining my brunch with Jenna who was still fuming across the table, but trying her hardest to remain quiet, letting me handle my business. Beneath all that calm, I could see that Jenna was charged, ready to act if push came to shove with Kayla. Kayla shrugged at the question, and I shook my head. “Why are you in Vermont Pack right now, Kayla?” I asked, trying to look for any logical reasons why she would abandon the comfort of her pack to be where no one wanted her. I genuinely wondered. Was it because of Aidan? Or was it for the fact that she saw me after all these years, and found out that she failed in her plan to keep me and Aidan away or ruin our family. “

  • Alpha Aidan's Rejection   105: What Text?

    TARA Jenna and I stood in front of the pack’s retreat complex on an already sunny Saturday morning, seeing Nadia off to her first day of football practice, and well, it was quite an interesting morning. Jenna was all smiles, encouraging Nadia to crush all her teammates even if it was just her first practice, and I was an entire other case. Nadia had suddenly picked up the interest the evening after we ran into Aidan here, and I wouldn’t have been as shocked if the new hobby interest was cheerleading or even football with a team of girls, but Nadia had stuck to her desire in playing football with all male kids team. I was not going to stop her from trying out what interested her, but it made me ask myself some questions, as most mothers would, seeing as this wasn’t the first time Nadia was choosing to do something that most young girls at her age wouldn’t be interested in. “Come on,” Jenna said, pulling me by my arm away from the complex entrance, and out of my thoughts. “We don’
