View MoreSELENE How the hell did I stay mated to this fool? I asked myself as I watched Lucas ignore the woman he came with to stare at me like he owned me. His stare made my skin crawl, and I made a mental note to scrub my body clean when we get back to the pack. He turned away from Tristan to stare at me, and I could see the confusion written all over his face, as he tried to figure out how I was alive. After all he had stabbed me and left me to bleed out in that forest without any care…just so that he could remaining the alpha of a pack that did not belong to him. “Surprised to see me alive after you tried to kill me?” I asked, keeping my voice as cold as I could. Meanwhile my heart was beating so loudly, I was surprised no one could hear it, and needing Tristan's support, my fingers blindly searched for him until I could his hand, and the moment our hands touched, he intertwined our fingers and squeezed softly, reminding me that I was not alone, not anymore, and that helped me to c
TRISTAN I found myself tapping my feet and unable to concentrate during the meeting, I was simply counting the seconds and waiting for it all to be over so that I could go back to Selene.I had forgotten about this part of the Trade, about the meeting that all Alpha's had to attend, and I felt bad for leaving her all by herself, but I knew Selene…my mate was strong, and I would not be surprised to go back to see her holding court with other Luna's surrounding her.She was not yet my Luna, but that was just a matter of time, I knew it.The meeting finally ends, but I was stuck making small talk with a few other alphas who were my allies, this trade was held every year for this very reason, and I could not let this opportunity go to waste…especially as it seemed we would have no choice but to fully go to war with Selene's former soon if she succeeds in getting her revenge against Lucas.Speaking of the devil…I had not seen Lucas anywhere since we got here, which was a good thing for hi
SELENE I stared at myself in the mirror, adjusting my dress and my hair and everything I could until I looked perfect. My hair fell in soft curls that framed my face perfectly, my makeup was done to perfection, my lips and cheeks a perfect shade of rose that brought my skin to life, and the dress was as perfect as it had been when I tried it on, paired with my silver heels and clutch. I looked perfect, and yet I could not ignore the feeling of dread that kept creeping up my spine at the thought of meeting Lucas again after all these months. What would he think when he sees me, the woman he thinks is dead, his former mate whom he killed with his own hands. “Selene? Are you ready?” Tristan asked as he walked into the room, straightening his tie, and the moment I saw him, all thoughts of Lucas left my mind. Our attraction to each other was amplified by the mate bond, but even without that, it was easy to see that Tristan was attractive, and with him all dressed up in his tux, it was
SELENE I tried to ignore Tristan as I focused on my meal, but the feeling of his knees pressing against mine, and his gaze on me as I ate, made it impossible for me to focus. “Tristan,” I gasped when I felt his hand on my thigh. Although I was wearing shorts and he was not touching my bare skin, I could feel the heat from his palm scalding my skin. “Don't you think we should leave now?” Tristan murmured next to my ear, and I shivered as his breath hit my skin. “Fine…” there was no way I could concentrate on my meal with all he was doing to me. We silently walked down to the car, but before I could even stretch my hand to open it, Tristan was there, opening it for me. “Thank you.” I murmured feeling shy for some reason. He walked round the car and got in, but instead of starting the car, he turned to look at me. “Now…I've been patient enough. You can't give me that little kiss and expect me to be satisfied now, do you? Before I could say anything, his fingers found their way
SELENE The dress was strapless and silky, and it hugged every part of my body like it had been made perfectly for me. The contrast of my snow blonde hair and pupils and my fair skin against the blackness of the dress made me look like a goddess, like the moon admist the black night sky. And the slit…goddess, the slit was criminal. It ran so high up my thigh, showing enough leg to cause a scandal, and one wrong movement would have exposed everything. I stared at my reflection in the mirror as my fingers tugged on the top of the dress, turning it to adjust it so that it would sit perfectly on my chest. I looked lethal, wild and powerful, like I would step on anything and anyone that dared to be in my path. “Selene…” Tristan growled, and I saw that he had gotten up from the couch and was stalking towards me. “Well?” I asked, feigning nonchalance as I turned in front of the mirror. His gaze dropped to my legs, then climbed back up to my collarbone. I knew that look, the heat on hi
SELENE“I still don't see why you had to come with me.” I grumbled as I sat in the passenger's side of Tristan's car, watching the lights blur past us as I stared out the window.The sight of his muscular arms framed in his dark blue shirt sleeves gripping the wheels was almost enough to make me drool and forget about why we were in this situation in the first place.“Well, well, if it isn't the outsider.” Nancy had cornered me while I was walking down a hallway in the pack house.Since her plans to ruin Tristan and I’s relationship did not work, I hadn't seen her and thought he had left for good, but apparently she was still here.“And if it isn't the rejected one.” I smirked at her. I had a lot on my mind already, but I'll be damned if I let her get away with taunting me.Nancy narrowed her eyes and I could see the annoyance on her face.“You know nothing about me or why I'm here, so mind your fucking business and go look for someone else to play games with.” I continued before she
lSELENEThe annual packs trade was coming up and all alphas were required to attend.The trade was a huge event, one that united packs from across the continent in a rare truce to exchange information, strengthen alliances, flaunt resources, and socialize. The kind of thing that helped decide which packs would thrive and which would fall behind in the months to come.I had never gone with Lucas to any of the events outside the pack because he used to tell me that it was not necessary for me to go with him, that it was boring and full of “alpha talk” I wouldn’t understand.Part of me used to imagine what went on there, what it would be like to dress up and walk beside him, eyes on us as a power couple. But deep down, I think I always knew he did not want me to be seen.And although I was a bit curious about what actually went on there and Tristan had been bugging me to go with him for the last few days, I did not want to go…I did not want to risk running into Lucas or anyone from my p
SELENEThe only way I would survive long enough to destroy Lucas... was to kill Tristan…my mate.I buried my face in my hands, sitting on the cold tile floor of the bathroom like a ghost of myself.My bare legs were curled up beneath me, Tristan’s shirt hanging off one shoulder, still smelling like him.I should have taken it off, I should have thrown it far away, but I could not bear to do that. I could not even peel it from my skin without feeling like I was losing something I wasn’t ready to let go of.How the hell am I supposed to kill the one man who made me feel like I was alive again?How was I supposed to look at him and not think about what I had to do?How was I supposed to lie next to him knowing that one day I might be the reason he stopped breathing?I did not have any answers for myself.“You’re weak,” Xercer whispered in my head. “You’ll get us both killed for some foolish fantasy of love. You want revenge, don’t you?”“I hate you,” I whispered, pulling at my hair. “You
SELENEThe room was quiet except for the soft rustling of the sheets as I shifted closer to Tristan, resting my head against his chest.His arm was wrapped securely around me, his fingers lazily tracing patterns against my bare skin.I sighed contentedly, letting my fingers glide over his stomach, feeling the steady rise and fall of his breathing."You know," I murmured, "I think this might be the first time in a while that things have felt... normal.”Tristan let out a low chuckle, his fingers brushing over my shoulder. "Normal is overrated. But I understand what you mean.”We lapsed into silence again, enjoying the rare moment of stillness.The last few weeks had been nothing short of chaos, and yet, lying here with him, I felt a strange sense of relief. Like maybe, just maybe, things were finally falling into place.As we lay in bed, cuddled up together, Tristan and I chatted about minor stuff, not venturing close to any serious topic and talking about nothing in particular, and it
1: STABBEDSELENEAlpha Lucas was going to be overjoyed once I told him the good news that I was pregnant.I knew that I was the Luna and that meant that I had to carry myself with grace but I was so happy, so excited that I half ran, half walked as I made my way to his study.Usually, I didn’t disturb my love when he was there, it was his personal space but this news could not wait, I could not wait to tell him he was going to become a father!I pushed open the door without knocking, “Darling, you are not going to believe what I have to tell–” the words hung in my mouth as my eyes widened.Alpha Lucas’ pants were around his ankle and he was balls deep inside another woman, his naked butt clenching viciously as he thrust into her.The bottle of champagne that I had brought for us to celebrate with fell from my hand and smashed to pieces at my foot, sending glass and red wine flying in every direction.I looked on, and squinted my eyes, refusing to believe what I was seeing.The woman ...
