Shawn’s POV My wolf ran as hard as he could through the forest as I tried to get the image of Willow’s hurt face out of my head. What I had said to Alpha Chance was never to have been heard by her ears. I was trying to say something that would stop him from making me confess that I had strong feelings for Willow. She was his mate and I never would want to take away from his happiness with her. Plus, I was still not ready to let myself believe that Jess was gone. I felt the bond between Jess and I sever, but I didn’t want to believe that she was gone forever. Every now and then it's as if I can still feel her calling to me and I fear if I let myself feel for Willow that small piece of her will disappear. There was something about Willow that reminded me of Jess and I honestly was starting to believe that it was my mind playing tricks on me. Sometimes when she looks at me I can see Jess inside of her eyes. Even her scent calls to me as it also reminds me of the floral scent Jess used
Willow’s POV I knew that eventually I would have to see Beta Shawn, but I never thought it would be this soon and hurt this bad. The shock of seeing him had caused me to lose complete concentration allowing Alpha Chance to tag me. Alpha Chance saw the look on my face change and he turned to see what I was staring at. Beta Shawn’s eyes moved from me to Alpha Chance and I took that moment to make a run for it. I wasn’t ready to face him yet because my heart still ached from his words last night. Entering the woods, I quickly stripped off my clothes and shifted into my wolf to run off the pain like I used to do back home. It’s funny how you run from one emotional pain just to find another. As my wolf took off, I let her take complete control as I sat in the passenger seat trying to free myself from the pain. The further she got me from Beta Shawn, the less it would hurt or at least I told myself that. But as we rounded the bend to the waterfall with the pool, I could hear the sound of
Willow’s POV Initially, I began to head back towards the packhouse but after a few minutes of my mind getting lost in what just happened, I knew I couldn’t head back and face Alpha Chance. I needed to run and free myself of the pain that now tortured my thoughts. I had given myself to Beta Shawn willingly, knowing that I couldn’t fully have him as mine and I wondered what that meant for us and if my heart could handle this. I also wondered what Alpha Chance would think of all of this and if he would approve of Beta Shawn only being with me too, but not actually mating with me. I knew the two of them were talking about this in his office and he approved of Beta Shawn being my second mate but I wondered if he knew that Beta Shawn didn’t want to actually mate with me, but just have a relationship. Worry then consumed me what the pack members would think of their Luna being mated to their Alpha but also being with their Beta unmated to him. But the need that was in me to be with Beta
Willow’s POV As Alpha Chance placed kisses with his lips on my mating spot, Beta Shawn walked towards me not losing eye contact with me. His pupils were dilated and I could see that need in his eyes to touch me. Alpha Chance’s arms pulled me back against him and I could feel the hardness of his cock pressed against my back. His hands now roamed up my body cupping my breasts and sending heat to my core. Closing my eyes, I let myself lavish in the feel of his touch but then my eyes flew open when I felt two sets of hands on me. Beta Shawn now stood only inches in front of me and his hands were on my lower half pulling my pants down. He looked into my eyes before he bent a knee in front of me. From behind me, Alpha Chance gently pulled my legs apart and I wondered what he was doing but in a matter of seconds I felt Beta Shawn’s mouth between my legs, as he took a lick from my front to my back. A moan slipped from my lips as the sensation of both of my mates touching me at once sent
Willow’s POV Awakening the next morning, I thought my body would be sore from last night’s activities with both my mates, but to my surprise my body felt rejuvenated. The smell of what we did still lingered in the air and as I opened my eyes, I realized that both my mates were gone but lying on the pillow next to me, where Alpha Chance’s head once laid on was a note. Sitting up I reached for the note, and began to read it, Luna, I thought it would be best to let you sleep, so that your body can heal from last night. Laying on the dresser is an outfit that I had brought up for you to change into when you get yourself ready for the day. I would like to take you out for the day and spend some much needed one on one time with my mate. I will be in my office waiting for you when you are ready. Love, Alpha Chance Pulling the note to my chest as I felt warmth spread to my heart. Love isn’t a word that I have heard in a very long time and to see it from Alpha Chance made me feel war
Willow’s POV As if the rogue Alpha could sense that we were looking at him he turned and stared in our direction, but his eyes weren’t on Alpha Chance but on me. Being in a human public place we had to watch not to expose ourselves. Alpha Chance let out a low growl as he noticed that the rogue Alpha was staring at me and placed a possessive arm around me. The rogue Alpha and three of his men began to walk our way and Alpha Chance whispered to me, “Let me do the talking.” The rogue Alpha stopped about four feet in front of us and his eyes were still on me when he says, “And we meet again.” “I have not had the pleasure of meeting you. I am Alpha Chance and this is my territory.” Alpha Chance tells him but the rogue Alpha’s eyes are still on me as if he was studying me. “I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you since our last meeting.” The rogue Alpha says to me ignoring Alpha Chance. Alpha Chance lets go of my hand and then steps in front of me blocking me from the rog
Chance’s POV I had all the shopping bags brought in from my car and taken to my room so that Willow could put her stuff away while Beta Shawn and I had a more private discussion on the matter at hand. There was something about this rogue Alpha that felt familiar to me and I couldn’t place my finger on it. It was as if I knew him in a past life and it was clawing at me that I couldn’t figure it out. “I know that look.” Beta Shawn says and then adds, “Something is eating at you.” “I am telling you, I know this rogue Alpha but I don’t know how. Maybe if Alpha Hunter sees him, he might be able to shed some light on who he is.” I tell Beta Shawn as I rub my temples from the headache that was throbbing in my head. It was as if something was blocking me from remembering parts of my past. “What are we going to do to make sure that Willow stays safe? You know he is going to come for her if he is that intrigued by her. Maybe we should send her somewhere until this is all over.” Beta Sha
Willow’s POV After I had put everything away that Alpha Chance had gotten me, I had wandered downstairs to his office to see how much longer he was going to be before he came upstairs for bed. I had come across of few of the sexy lingerie that he had snuck into the purchase at VS and wanted to surprise him with a thank you for everything he had done for me today and for the date, even though it got cut short. Spending alone time with him today made me realize that my feelings for him were growing stronger and I found myself thinking about him the whole time I was unpacking the shopping bags. To think about how I wanted him to reject me, that first day, sent pain to my heart now after I had gotten to know him and how he is so good to me. He was definitely not the man I had thought he would have been the first time I had met him in his office. Alpha Chance was kind and loving and cared about me and my safety but most of all he proved to me today that he would never leave me. He said
