A couple of seconds later, Olivia opens her eyes. "What time is it?" She asks, as if I would know that. I just shrug, not taking my eyes off her, "Daniel?" "He's not here right now, love," I answer and Olivia lets out a small smile at the word. My poor baby girl, all she wants is this and that dumbass can’t give it to her. So useless. That's why I should be in charge all the time. "Oh... Alpha, can we take a little break? I'm hungry," she says and I nod immediately. I didn't remember that I hadn't fed her yet, "We can order something." "No need, I brought food last night," I let her know with my eyes on her body again. I can't help it, she looks so beautiful under me, connected to my knot, "Or can we do it one more time? I can feed you at the same time, wouldn't you like that?" "No, I'm going to choke and die," she exaggerates with a small smile, "You want me to die?" "No, girl, I'd have to die with you and I didn't like the last time that was happening," I mutter, ending the
"Does this mean you're... happy I marked you?" I venture to ask, causing Olivia’s smile to disappear right then and there. She moves to punch my arm, hard. I'm getting used to these attacks by now and even find them adorable. "Of course not! My dad is going to lose his mind even more, you big idiot. How dare you even think of marking me as your mate before you marry me or even are my boyfriend?" She yells again, frustrated and shaking her head for a couple of seconds before calming down, "With that being said, I can't deny that's the first thing you've said or done that shows you want me, so I can't help but like it just a little bit." "Of course I want you, Olivia, more than anything," I admit and she rolls her eyes but can't help but smile again. Fück, this is going so much better than I expected, I think my approach with Olivia has to be this all the time. Crudely honest. "And whether the mark is real or not, my intention is to be with you and even marry you as long as you acce
When Olivia starts to look distraught and close to crying again, I decide to do something about it and approach them on the floor, ignoring Lucinda and Dalia's stares at me. I grab Laurie by one hand, forcing Olivia to let go of her deathly grip on him. "Hey, Laurie, everything’s okay, yeah? Can I talk to your wolf?" I ask him and he looks at me with confusion because he doesn't know how to do that, "Relax your mind and let him come out." Laurie frowns as he tries to do what I told him and a few seconds later I can see his pupils dilate and his wolf stepping in. "Hello, Alpha father.” he speaks clearly, making us all gasp because his voice sounds much deeper and more audible than it should. It doesn't sound like the sweet baby voice Laurie has. "Hey pup, what the hell are you doing?" I demand in a harsh voice, making him waver a little. "I want to be outside. I want to run and play, I don't want to be inside all the time." he replies with an arrogant tone, h
"Oh," I release all the air in my body and my shoulders relax for the first time all morning. I even start to smile when I think about the things she said now that I have a clear head. My baby boy is an alpha, how wonderful. “So it's a good thing, right? Laurie will be strong and powerful." "Yeah, basically. Congratulations," she rolls her eyes. I can see she shares the distaste for alphas with her daughter Mallory, "It tends to happen with compatible couples. Mother has everything perfectly planned out... which brings us to the next point I'm sure you want to discuss with me. How do you feel since the ritual?" "Like nothing happened," Daniel replies with a sharp tone, crossing his arms across his chest. Isabelle looks at him with a raised eyebrow, "I still want Olivia like I did before. My wolf still desires her as much or even more than before. And also... show her, Oli." Under Isabelle's expectant gaze, I tug at the collar of Daniel's sweatshirt and show her the mark I know is st
{ Daniel }Olivia grabs Laurie, carries him like he's a sack of potatoes and gets out of my truck without giving me even one last look. I give myself a second of peace and quiet before I park to get out as well. I know my father-in-law is already home and has been communicating with people to let them know he’s back in charge of the clan. I know I have to act fast and get straight to Frank before Olivia tries to tell him about the mark. Luckily, I know my girl well enough to be sure she won't run to tell him. At this point she probably went into hiding mode to think about how she can hide the mark for as long as possible or how to find an excuse that will save her from all blame because she's terrified of disappointing her father. But even if she doesn't want to hear this, I didn't lie when I said I would take full responsibility for what I did. From this moment forward, Olivia is officially my mate. I have absolutely all the right in the world to her and all I need as evidence is
Hi, this is your author speaking! This book is already finished and I’m really really excited for you all to read it all as soon as possible, so I will be updating a few chapters daily, I hope you’re okay with that! :D By the way, Daniel and Olivia’s story will soon come to an end and then we have a few side stories, get ready for that ’t like it, so I agree. Let’s fight. But we'll do it legally," he adds, "If I win, you'll have to leave the clan. And if you win, I'll step aside and let Olivia do as she pleases, even if that means having seven more kids without getting married yet." "Sounds good to me," I reply and give him a deep look, "I consider you the good father figure I never had, Frank, but if it comes to Olivia I'm willing to do this. Besides, even if I lose... I don't think you can stop Olivia from leaving the clan with me." "I sure can," h
"Dad, are you being serious?" I ask, unable to believe it. My dad won't bend, so I look at my mom through my tears. She’s still just as angry, but she's quiet now and with her arms crossed, "It's just a mark! Why should anyone die because of it? Not to mention you would be killing me, too. You don’t care about that?” My father keeps quiet and I just shake my head. If he doesn't care about killing me then he can go to hell. I'm not staying here for that. I turn around and storm out of the office. "Olivia! GET BACK IN HERE!" he orders and I can feel his command is full of alpha power, but I don't feel compelled to obey, which surprises me a little until I remember the mark. Daniel is officially my alpha now, not my father. "Stop and come here, we'll talk about this." "No. I don't want to talk to you," I say, stepping into my room and pulling my bags out from under my bed. My dad walks in and closes the door behind him, it's just the two of us now, without that woman who called me
{ Daniel } The rogue wolves are nothing like I imagined them to be. They seem… almost normal, but not really. There is something off about them. The beta is a tiny twenty year old boy that clearly is just being dragged into this shit along with his brother. He didn't put up any resistance when we locked him up, he hasn't even said a word. To be honest, he seems even relieved. But the alpha... goddamn. That one is a total lunatic, a crazy bastard obsessed with ancient thoughts. Even with his wolf sedated and one of his arms asleep, he puts up resistance against Lucinda and almost manages to push her off when he raises his hand and claws her face, but that only serves to piss off the other craziest alpha I know. Her anger serves as a propellant and she pushes the alpha so hard he falls to the ground on his ass. Lucinda slams the door shut, slamming the buttons on the monitor to activate the soundproof system and then lets out a big breath of relief, lifting a hand to wipe the blood
