Ethan The wide-eyed expression gracing my mate’s face, and her reaction to my revelation that I’m in the running for Lycan King, is refreshing and amusing. I laugh again, and she scowls at me. “I said, it’s not funny! Why would you want to be a King? That’s… that’s crazy,” she exclaims, falling b
Ethan Something itching at my mind pulls me from sleep just as a phone ringing reaches my senses, making me jolt up. I look around, ready to throw the phone across the room until my mind fog clears. “…f you can hear me, but your father is pissed.” Ryan’s voice pauses before it begins again. “Etha
Fiona “If you bring it up again, I will personally visit the Moon Goddesses’ shrine and make a sacrifice like the old times to meet her and have her talk some sense into you,” Ethan’s voice growls from outside the door. The venom in his tone makes me shiver as I bolt up. I love that he’s standing
“Bring Ethan back, please. I have something I need to say,” I tell him. He growls, then nips at my neck before fading back into Ethan. “Thank you for standing up for me and for saying all those nice things about me to your father,” I whisper, kissing Ethan briefly. He growls in response, yanking m
Fiona “Oh, my gosh! Look, Ethan,” I call, pointing down the little road to the grouping of stalls that line up along a boarded off street. It looks like some sort of market where people can sell things as vendors. “Do you want to check it out?” He asks, turning toward the street. Nodding, I try
“Did you get a souvenir from the dance?” He asks, glancing around the booth. It has a hula vibe, so maybe this is where people buy their outfits when they practice hula. “I don’t remember getting one, but it’s been so long…” Ethan reaches for the skirt I’d picked up and takes it over to the lady
Fiona “Can I ask you something?” I start, a bit hesitant because I know from our previous conversation this will be a sensitive topic. I want to know more about Ethan, and I want to know more about his family. The only way that will happen is to talk to him about it. We need to be open, and he sa
“Did he think you would be a puppet forever? That he would be able to control you as you grew older?” Ethan scoffs and drives his fingers through his hair with a sharp exhale. The frustration tightens his body, making him go stiff under my touch, so I reach my arm around and rub my hand up and dow

My nerves grew as we get closer to the statue, and I notice the food, flowers, money, and many other things laid out at the bottom of the statue. I glance down at the small gift I brought, nervous that it’s not enough.Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to bring. Ethan said it is a gift of thanks and that
Fiona POV“He should be here any minute,” I tell Healer Farah as she preps the ultrasound machine.Ethan is on his way back from the meeting with the Northern Alphas. He told me that with the death of Alpha Thrange, the other Alphas decided that any form of rebellion or resistance was futile. They s
Everyone stills and turns to look at the two Alphas fighting. Or really, they turn in time to see Ethan rip into the man who kidnapped me.“I’ve never seen Ethan so angry,” Aaron mutters, his wide eyes never leaving the bloody scene in front of us. Honestly, I thought the fight would be more difficu
Fiona POVI let myself sink into Ethan’s chest, sobbing as his arms surround me. One hand cradles the back of my neck while the other pulls me closer by my back. That pleasurable, calming tingle from his touch sweeps through my body, giving my body a chance to finally relax.It feels like I can fina
Ethan POV“Is everyone ready?”Tension and adrenaline pump through my veins, making it nearly impossible to stop pacing since I got word from the scouts that they may have found my mate. If they’re right, then she’s with Alpha Thrange of the Whiteclaw Pack.“We’re almost ready,” Alpha Mandra says, g

However, if Fiona does happen to be in one of the two packs the scouts mentioned, we’ll be able to get in and get out without alerting them. I don’t want to lose this chance to search for Fiona. It could be my only chance to do so without violence.“Which means I need us to keep a lock on our anger,
Ethan POVMy senses return as the darkness fades away, and I groan because my limbs feel heavy, and my head aches. Taking several deep breaths, I blink to clear my vision, confused when I can’t move my arms.Looking around, I find my wrists trapped in heavy chains. I follow the chains to the wall, n
