CHAPTER 26: THE TERMINAL STONE~ Gabriel’s POV ~After training I got cleaned up and called a meeting with Kai and Tanner. Kai was back home from being out of town visiting family. Kelly let me know this morning that my office is finally finished. It’s on the first floor down the same hallway as my fathers near the dining hall. Sitting at my desk, I developed an outline of things that needed to be covered in this meeting today. I wasn’t waiting long before a firm knock sounded on my door. “Come on in.” I said. Tanner walked in first followed by Kai who shut the door behind him.“Wow, this is nice. You are spoiling yourself a little bit aren’t you Mr. Alpha of the Harmony Moon Pack. By the way, when will my office be completed?” Tanner said with a smirk.“What the hell do you even need an office for Tanner?” I raised my eyebrows at him.“I’m an important beta. I need an important space.” He said jokingly. He was trying to put a serious look on his face without laughing. Kai was stil
CHAPTER 27: A GNAT IN THE EYE~ Gabriel’s POV ~Tanner threw himself back in his chair, as our meeting was coming to an end his mood was lightning back up.“So, Gabe, are you going to explain to us the deal between you and Harper? Or should we keep walking around like we have no idea that you two have a thing…” Tanner said to me with one eyebrow raised. I laughed at him. The thought of Harper and I having a “thing” lightened my mood.“Ok, since she and I were able to clarify things yesterday, I guess I can fill you two in.” Tanner grinned from ear to ear. More than ready to hear what I was about to say. I shook my head at him and rolled my eyes. “Since the moment I first met Harper, I have been completely wrapped up in her.” Tanner looked at me confused.“That doesn’t make a bit of sense, Gabe. I am going to need you to be more specific with what you are trying to say.” Tanner said with a look that would remind you of a doctor that was trying to diagnose you with a serious illness.
CHAPTER 28: I WILL ALREADY BE THERE ~ Harper’s POV ~After training I was starving so I decided to go to the dining hall and grab some food. I found a table and sat down to eat. I had almost finished eating when Tanner and Kai walked up to me sitting their trays down on the table. “Hey guys, are you just now getting to eat?” I asked.“Yeah, we had a meeting with Gabe in his office.” Kai replied to me. Picking up his spoon to dip it into his soup.“So, are you hiding something from me Harper?” I looked at Tanner confused. Kai covered his eyes with his hand and shook his head at Tanner.“Um… Not that I know of.” I laughed at him“Admit it, you’re a demigod, aren’t you?” I choked getting strangled while getting a sip of my water. “You're joking, right? Kai, tell me he is joking…” Kai laughed.“I am joking, but Harper, you have some mad skills. I’m proud of you kid.” Tanner said to me with a big smile. “For the record, I am never letting you live this down. If we are ever in battle an
CHAPTER 29: YOU’RE ON MY BED, BABY~ Gabriel’s POV ~Once I reached Harper’s door, I started to feel a little nervous. I’m not sure why though. Taking a deep breath, I knocked. Harper opened the door.“Oh… come to tell me what I can and can’t do again alpha.” She said, never breaking eye contact with me. “No Harper, can I come in so I can explain.” I asked her. She stepped to the side and opened the door for me to walk in. I shut the door behind me but when I turned around, I noticed that Harper was wearing only a towel, and her hair was damp. She must have just gotten out of the shower. I swallowed deep. I was frozen with my eyes locked on her. My heartrate got faster as I thought about there being nothing but her under that towel. Harper blushed; her hands were clasped together as she sat on the edge of her bed.“I’m sorry I don’t have a robe. I was just looking through my things trying to find something to wear tonight.” She said to me while looking down. I walked near her, as I
CHAPTER 30: I WANT TO LOOK HOT!~ Harper’s POV ~ After leaving Gabriel’s room, I rushed downstairs to my room to continue to get ready. I can’t be upset with Gabe for wanting to do something nice for me. I do feel guilty for accepting all that stuff though. I am going to pay back every last cent he spent on me. It’s so cheesy when I think about my feelings for Gabe. Things seem to be moving quickly in our relationship. It’s strange though, I feel like I have known him a lot longer than I really have. I like him a lot... I think I feel more than that, but I don’t want to go there right now. It is way too soon for feelings like that. I heard a soft knock on my door. I walked to the door and opened it. “Hi Harper, I was just checking to see if you liked the clothes I brought down. How is everything going?” Kelly asked. “Hey Kelly, come in! Everything is great. The clothes are gorgeous, although I don’t really need them now. Gabe bought me a whole wardrobe! Can you believe that? He di
CHAPTER 31: CLUB HOWL~ Harper’s POV ~Another knock sounded on my door. I ran to answer it. It must be Kelly. I opened my door and Kelly stepped into my room. She looked so good! Her short brown hair had bouncy curls that she had partially pinned in the back. Her makeup was well applied bringing out her beautiful facial features. Her lips were bright red. Her black dress was short like mine. It had long sleeves and a low V shaped neckline that also showed off her cleavage. Her heels were black like her dress. I wouldn’t have known she had all that body hidden under her work uniform. “Kelly, you look gorgeous!” I complimented her. “I look gorgeous? look at you! Girl, you are going to turn every head in the house tonight.” she exclaimed. “Not if I am walking beside you.” I said back to her. “Are you ready to go down?” She asked me. “Yes, I think so.” I was rearing and ready to go tonight... until now. I was so nervous. What would Gabriel think of how I was dressed? I started to sw
CHAPTER 32: I WANT YOU SO BAD~ Gabriel’s POV ~I was starting to feel the effects of the alcohol. I assumed Harper was too because she grabbed Kelly's hand and pulled her down the stairs and out onto the dance floor. I followed them, there is no way I am letting her out of my sight tonight. Kai, and Tanner were right behind me. The girls were laughing and seemed to be having the time of their lives. The DJ was playing a pop song that had a great beat to dance to. We all started dancing to the music. I was watching Harper the whole time. I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. She was swaying and moving to the music. She took the backs of her hands up the side of her body moving from her hips, over her waist, then to each side of her breasts. She continued up behind her neck, then grabbed her hair up as her hands continued their climb. Then letting it fall back down all around her. Holy hell. She is the hottest girl in this club tonight, and I’m not the only one who thinks so. “Mika, b
CHAPTER 33: HE JUST TOUCHED MY HARPER~ Gabriel’s POV~ Harper had been downstairs at the bar with Kelly for about fifteen minutes. I kept glancing at her through the glass wall that separated the VIP section from everything else. You could see out of the glass, but no one could see in. I was in the middle of conversation with Tanner and Kai when Mika started to stir. My eyes shot up to Tanner and Kai. Their eyes locked on mine knowing exactly what was going on. It's another alpha. I have smelled this scent before. It’s The Shadow Dwellers. A pack that we are neither ally's nor enemies with. My father and the alpha of the Shadow Dwellers have only met a few times outside our borders. They always got along, but the heir to the Shadow Dwellers and I hated each other. His name is Chad. I just never liked the way he acted, but as long as he respects me, I would respect him. They are a pack that live on the opposite side of the city from us. The city is in the middle of our two territorie
