I followed Delilah and Tony back to Jacob's cottage feeling the curious eyes of people on me. I was certain they were wondering who I was or maybe they knew, truth was I didn’t care.We got to Jacob’s cottage and Tony opened the door, I walked in with Delilah, Jacob was seated in the foyer, a wine glass in hand, red liquid swirling within."Prime" Delilah and Tony greeted, he nodded, his eyes on me. I folded my arms over my chest as his eyes roved over my form. The edge of his lips lifted a bit, making me glare at him.The bastard."You can go, Delilah." He instructed, she nodded, glancing at me before leaving, closing the door behind her."I see you've met Tony, my beta"I narrowed my eyes at the beta, now his earlier comment made sense."It's an honour to meet you, Luna Prime." He replied, grinning slightly as I scowled at the title.“I wish I could say the same.” I muttered, glaring at him, he laughed before bowing once more."Goodnight Alpha, Luna.""Won't you be joining us for di
After the shower, I changed into a pair of dark wash jeans, a tank top and a jacket., it irked me how the clothes fitted me perfectly and a part of me wanted to ask how the bastard got my measurement but the major part of me dreaded knowing how.I followed Delilah out of Jacob's cottage, I felt a tad bit guilty lulling her into a sense of security, somehow I knew she would be the key to me destroying Jacob Mont Blanc, he seemed to have a soft spot for her and I was not above exploiting our new found friendship to get an advantage over him."Those houses over there belong to the advisors." She pointed out four large row houses."Advisors?""Yes, Jacob has three advisors who help him in different areas of running the pack, it has always been like that here." She explained."Is your father an adviser?""He was…" She trailed off, a sad smile on her lips. "He died in an accident, so it's just me and my mother now.""I'm sorry to hear that." I whispered, we walked in silence until we reache
He stepped forward, taking my hand, I stiffened when his fingers grazed my mine, shutting my eyes as he slid the ring on. It immediately felt like I was being electrocuted, a gasp escaped my lips and my eyes flew open. I forced myself not to fall to my knees as hundreds and thousands of connections from several packs surged through me trying to establish a connection.Breathe, you’re stronger than thisI urged myself, closing my eyes yet it was overwhelming, more than when I had slid my father’s ring on. This was intense, soul searing even. It was as if I was being branded from the inside out as the Mont Blanc Luna. A whimper escaped my lips and I felt myself being led somewhere and gently pushed into a seat, a hand cupping my face.“Breathe”My eyes fluttered to see Jacob kneeling in front of me, barely any distance between us, I could feel the heat radiating from his body and my traitorous body was reacting to it. His eyes had flecks of red in them and it made them even more mesmeri
Smoke… thick black smoke… the screams of peopleAdelaide run!!!! You are the future of our pack!!!Pain… so much pain…I sat up with a gasp, my heart pounding wildly against my rib cage. I looked around, I was in the cell, I wasn't back at Silverstone. A soft sigh escaped my lips and I got to my feet, stepping over Liam who was sleeping on the floor. I turned on the tap and splashed some water on my face before staring at my reflection in the mirror.Saying yes to Jacob was against everything I stood for. He might be my mate and my father had wronged him by performing the ritual but that didn't justify his actions. He could have simply gone to the other Alpha Primes and the matter would have been solved, instead he chose the bloody path.I ran my fingers through my hair, hating how tired I looked. The nightmares were draining. I was thankful they didn't come as regularly as they once did, but that didn't make them any less frightening or real. Wrapping my arms around my body, I walked
JACOBI watched her leave, taking a sip of Samara's bræw. She was a spitfire and I knew she was capable of causing much damage. Tony walked in a few minutes later."Seeing that you are still alive, I'd say it went well then." He inquired. I wiped my mouth clean with the napkin, tossing it on the table and getting to my feet."She made another attempt, not as calculated as the first one, so I'll say we are making some sort of progress." I replied."How? We had her frisked before she was placed in the cell."I walked up to him, picking up the knife she had tried to use."Turns out she can be very resourceful when she wants to be."He shook his head as I made my way out of the dining room, him following me."And the deal?""I gave her the night to think it over.""What if she says no?""She won't." I replied, making my way to my office. "She may hate my guts but she loves her cousin more than anything.""You want her yet you're forcing her to obey you by threatening hee cousin every chan
I glared at him, folding my arms, biting back every vile utterance I wanted to spew at him."I'm here, what do you want?"He smiled, though there was nothing warm or friendly about it, in fact all it did was make him look feral."Sit" He gestured to the chair next to me while he settled into a chair."I am not eating."He took a bite of his steak, glancing at me."Then your cousin will go hungry for the next two days." He stated. I narrowed my eyes at him, he continued eating as if he had not kil.led my family and imprisoned my cousin and I. I stamped the urge to hurl the knife in front of me at him.I sat down, picking up the fork and knife, slicing into the steak. I took a bite, forcing myself to chew and swallow."Why are my cousin and I being held captive?" I demanded. He let out a chuckle, glancing at me, an eyebrow raised, cold amusement dancing in his eyes."You and your cousin are here on charges of conspiracy to commit m.urder, attempt to murder an Alpha Prime, criminal tresp
