Chapter 49 - Sarael
“So you went from having an expansive garden and greenhouse. Where you were looked to for all things related to plants to this?” Khalid arched an eyebrow as he slowly walked around my shop. “To owning my own successful business and living my life the way I see fit rather than how someone else does?” I countered, folding my arms, giving him a narrowed look.
How dare he make it sound like my life is somehow less than it was or could have been if I stayed in the guild. I should ring his fucking neck. Becky gulped, looking between us. “Um, so I’m going to go start on the orders for today.” she said, nodding her head to the back room. “Thank you, Becky.” I nodded, not even looking at her.
“I’m not putting you down, Auntie." he prefaced. Not putting me down my ass. "It’s just I know if you

“Did you get a hold of Kurt? What news about my niece?” I asked. “We contacted Kurt.” John began. “We?” I asked. “Logan, Charles, Jonathan, and myself. We called Kurt, and after he finally answered, we determined that Isis was with him and she was his mate. They assumed Isis was adopted, and that’s why she is a werewolf. I didn’t go into details of her conception. Nor did I go into details about why she can’t shift. I felt these were subjects not to discuss over the phone, let alone without you.” he explained.Crap! I mean, I had an inkling that Kurt was her mate based on Khalid’s description of their closeness in Paris. But there was still a shred of hope. I don’t want my niece to have to deal with more pressure and danger. And becoming the Luna to a pack of rogues is both of those things.

I tried to keep myself busy for the rest of the day. It was impossible to focus on work. Thankfully, Logan and Charles had that covered. So instead, I made my way to the training ground. Various pack members bowed their heads as I passed, pausing their training to pay respect. I barely nodded back. I was too pent up. I had too much on my mind to be polite.I went straight into the changing area, exchanging my black slacks and white dress shirt for gray tear-away athletic shorts and no shirt. I wasn’t sure if I’d only train myself or unleash Irving, but it was likely to happen. I headed back out and went for the ring. Currently, the ring is occupied by Colby Delaney and Warren Kinney.I suppose it makes sense. Azriel is currently on duty watching over Sarael, which gives Colby the time to train more. And if Warren is here, that means Nige

When we pulled into the parking lot of the simple garage, a man that resembled Alexander, though with a few gray hairs, walked out with a smile. “You must be John Kinsley.” he greeted, wiping his hands with a cloth before offering it. “You look just like your brother. Not that I’ve met my man, but I’ve seen pictures. I still owe him a drink for letting my boy spend so much time at his place and whipping him into better shape.” Robert Whitland smiled. “Pleasure, sir. And yes, I’m John. This is my girlfriend Sarael, and the grump in the back is her nephew. We’re here to pick up her car.” I greeted, shaking his hand. “Right, right. The Ford Alexander towed here yesterday. Got it all ready for you, Miss.” he nodded, giving a warm smile to Sarael. “Thank you so much for letting it be towed here. I don’t know what happened with it, but it just wouldn’t start back up for me. I had to take an uber to my next appo

I wish Khalid hadn’t stormed out. Now I’m not just worried about Isis but him as well. I know he can handle himself, but he’s on werewolf territory, and it’s not like John or his brother have told the pack of his presence, let alone that he was allowed to wander freely. The only thing that kept me from worrying too much about him was that John sent one of my guards to tail Khalid.“Do you really think Isis will be safe?” I frowned, setting out the take-out. I ordered black pepper beef and steamed white rice for John, my favorite pineapple chicken and steamed rice for myself, and some won tons to share. “Yes. The Incubi Pack has had their image as being the strongest and more ruthless pack in Europe for a reason.” John responded, pouring two glasses of wine.“And if Alpha Chesed… Alec, whatever he goes

She said YES! Irving was practically doing backflips in my head because he was so thrilled. She agreed to let us mark her. ‘Of course, there's a catch.’ Irving grumbled. ‘She makes a valid point. There may be imperative information in that book about our mate bond. As it stands, if we mark her now, we don’t know what will happen. She could even die from the pain for all we know.’ I pointed out. That shut him up. He wouldn’t risk Sarael's safety just to mark her. Sarael smiled and returned to her meal. If anything, I hope reading through the book can take her mind off her stress regarding her family. With our meals eaten, we moved to the living room to read. Sarael already had the book from Shea and another old book out waiting for me on the sofa. “So, what is the other book?” I asked, nodding to it. “Oh, that’s one of mine. It’s the book I used for bindin
Beta's Surprise Mate Chapter 55 - Sarael
I can’t believe I’ve just agreed to this. My father would be furious, and my mother would probably be crying, and Sakina… well, Sakina would probably want to fight me, possibly even kill me so that I couldn’t go through with this. On the whole, I can only think Isis would be on board with my plans to let John mark me. Even Khalid probably would frown on this. I know Khalid doesn’t like that I’m John’s mate, but I’m not marked. So he might have been accepting right now. But when he learns that I not only intend to let John mark me but that in the manner we plan to do so will essentially make me a werewolf… Khalid is going to lose his temper. For the moment, outside his snide remarks, he’s been calmer and collected like his father. But I can see Sakina’s short fuse in him, and this would set it off. But well, just like fifteen years ago when I left my fam

Three days later, I think I’ve only not smiled a handful of times, and those were when someone mentioned the subject of Isis. Finding out that under the new moon, Sarael and I can not only complete the mate bond but that she had a chance as a ranked mate to get a wolf, it was beyond my wildest dreams. Irving has been abuzz with energy. I think he might be more hyper than that time Hana ate an entire double chocolate espresso cake Mrs. Carmicheal baked for Jonathan’s sixteenth birthday. I’m glad he’s excited. I am, too, of course. But I also know the book said rare and only had one ranked wolf/human mate bond to base on. It isn’t a guarantee she will develop a wolf spirit of her own and be able to shift. ‘I do not care!’ Irving growled. ‘I just don’t want you getting too excited for something that might not happen.’ I sighed. ‘I get it might not happen. I like to think positively! And if it doesn’t happen,
Beta's Surprise Mate Chapter 57 - Sarael
My heart had lodged itself in my throat from the moment Azriel walked into my shop. He’s supposed to be guarding me discreetly. He and his brother were chosen because they can make themselves invisible to ensure no one knows they are watching me. So for him to walk in, something must have happened. Am I in danger? That was the first thing I thought of. Becky, of course, perked up when he walked in. The Delaney brothers are handsome men. I won’t deny that. So, of course, Becky is drooling. “Welcome to Flowers of the Nile. How can I help you?” Becky batted her eyes at him. Azriel gave her an uninterested glance. “I need to speak with your boss. I can worry about buying my wife flowers later.” he said as his head turned and eyes locked in on me where I had stopped watering some potted plants. “Miss Adio, my boss asked me to come to get you. He apologizes for the
