Masuk{ Renaya’s POV }I pulled him in by the belt before I could talk myself out of it.The door of my hotel room slammed shut, and his mouth was on mine already, kissing me rough and certain, like he’d already decided there's no need to ask twice. Good. Because if he asked twice, I might remember I was supposed to be leaving Roseville with my pride intact.Wait…about Roseville? I had come here to shoot my last shot at Nicholas, and two weeks later I'm about to get fucked by his mate's brother. Wow.My back hit the bed, and his hand slid into my hair, tipping my head back, deepening the kiss. He tasted like alcohol and bad timing. I kissed him harder anyway.“Renaya,” he muttered. “Don’t make it soft,” I whispered against his mouth. “I don’t want soft.”Because soft would feel like comfort. Comfort would feel like something I could actually need, and I was not about to need Elena’s brother!His mouth moved to my jaw, then to my throat. My fingers dug into his shoulders as he kissed down
{ Ambrose’s POV }She pulled me by the belt, and I followed her like a man lost. The hallway blurred. Her room key flashed, then the door shut behind us with a soft click. She pulled me closer, and whatever rational line of thought I still had left disappeared.We landed on the bed the next second.I kissed her like I was starving, because I was. Mouth open, teeth catching her lower lip, my tongue sliding against hers until she moaned into me. I pushed my thigh between her legs and she immediately rolled her hips up, grinding against me with zero shame. The heat of her body through the last thin barrier of her shirt almost wrecked me.“Renaya,” I muttered.“Don’t make it soft,” she whispered against my mouth. “I don’t want soft.”Good. Because soft was not what was pounding through my blood.I dragged her shirt the rest of the way off, then her bra next. Her breasts spilled into my hands—those breasts I had eyed since the day I saw her—very full and warm, her nipples already tight. I
{ Ambrose's POV }The meeting was one hell of its kind. Boring land and territory talks and the worst part, Alpha Cade didn't let me utter a single word. He let Elijah give all the contributions while I sat there like some dumb tyrant heir who's been forced to learn pack leadership.And I had some useful suggestions. But I guess I will keep them to myself and go have a drink with my old buddy, Julian. I called him earlier and he had picked a place for us to meet. Turns out Julian is still the same—money hungry and never satisfied. He was excited to help as long as the pay was good. I killed my car's engine after entering the parking area of Hudson Suites and Hotels, privately owned by one of the high ranking Alphas in Roseville. The female receptionist at the entrance greeted me with a charming smile which I didn't return. Wasn't it against work policy to flirt with customers? Julian said the bar for VIPs was on the second floor like I couldn't find my way around. Dude, this used t
{ Nicholas POV }Collective nods in agreement to my statement came from all three of them. “But how?” Ambrose asked, his brows drawn together . “this murder happened twenty five years ago. Like three years before Elena and I was born.” The disbelief in his voice made the whole thing sound impossible. But I'm certain there would be a way. There's always a way, you just have to look closer. “Don't Roseville keep a record of rogue attacks and the damages done?” Renaya asked, flopping backwards onto the couch. “I mean, every standard werewolf community does that.”“We do.” Elena countered cooly. “The Luna Council holds it, and it's practically locked down.”“Nothing is impossible.” The twins looked at me with that ‘you've lost it’ look. Now I'm starting to feel dumb.“Stop staring at me like that.”“Yeah.” Renaya cut in. “Why stare at him like that?”Ambrose gave her a quick look before answering. “The security is as tight as a vault. Alarm systems everywhere. High sensitivity cameras
{ Nicholas’s POV } I felt it—the sharp turn in her mood like ten minutes later after she left downstairs, it hit me all the way from the living room, so I got dressed fast and took my usual route down to the courtyard. By the time she stormed out onto the porch, the look on her face already said the conversation had gone straight to hell. She saw me waiting and didn’t slow down, just walked past me like the innocent cobblestone ground itself had offended her. “Let’s get out of here.” I didn’t ask questions. Angry Elena didn’t need questions, she needed movement. I followed her to the car, got in, and let the silence and the low hum of the car's engine sit between us all the way to my place. When I pushed the apartment door open, the very last person I wanted to see was already making herself comfortable. Princess Renaya, in nothing but a sports bra and tiny bum shorts so tight her hips were on display, her hair was packed in a loose messy bun. She sat at the dining table with a
{ Elena’s POV }“You should get going.”Nicholas sat on my sofa in only his boxers, a book open in his hands like he was actually reading it.“Nope.” His voice sounded bored, but his eyes stayed glued on the page. “I’ll be waiting right here until you finish with Daddy.”I pulled my sleeveless beige crop top over my head and gave him a warning smile. “No, darling. I’m not doing shit with you today again.”He shut the book with a sharp snap, dropped it on the sofa, and gave me a flat look. “It’s about work. Get your mind out of the gutter.”I rolled my eyes and did the zipper of my trousers. “Oh whatever. Just hide. Like—not hide. Just stay quiet so you don’t get caught.”I didn’t wait for his answer. I stepped out, shut the door behind me, and started down the stairs with my pulse already climbing high, high up. Dad ignored me, like he acted like I wasn't even present in this mansion these last few days, now he wants to talk. Wow. Great.And let's hope it goes well. Gosh! Our relation
[Nicholas's POV ] I strode out of the room and flung the door shut with a loud bang. Her sobs followed next. For a moment, I felt regret; a part of me wanted to go back and apologize... but no!It had to stop one day and that day was today."You did the right thing," Kyle said in a reassuring tone.
[Nicholas's POV ]I stared at the rare beauty in front of me, deep brown eyes drowning into mine like she couldn't have enough, smooth pale skin smothered with drops of water, her wet long hair clung to her skin, damn....she had only a towel on, it seemed she just came out of the bathroom. My eyes
Elena's POVHis large frame filled the entire doorway; his chest heaved as he had run the whole way back. He was still in his warrior gear and there was mud on his boots.The next thing I know, he's right in front of me, engulfing me in a warm embrace. “I was so scared Lena, thought I lost you,” he
Elena's POVAnother growl thundered and I knew for sure something was definitely wrong else what would make my father summon the entire pack at this time of night. “No…nothing should go wrong now, not after all that happened. Spare us Moon goddess.” I prayed silently. Taking a deep breath, I star
