Desmond's eyes opened wide at the revelation from his wolf, Des. âMate.â He was deeply confused as he watched Odessa dance along the street, tasting different dishes of exotic street foods. He looked at her with new eyes, her hair dancing gently in the wind. It was as if everything was in slow motion. As Odessa turned towards him, her smile captivating. âWhy are you looking at me t"I'm going to the library." Desmond picked his head up from the files he was reading to see his mate standing by the door to his office. She had on a white, flowing gown that stopped at her knees, exposing her smooth legs. Her hair lay on her shoulders in wavy curls, and her light eyes pierced through him. It was so different seeing her in something that was not combat clothes and a ponytail because that was all she wore for the past month. "You're going to the library?" He inquired, with a quirk of his brow. "Um, yes. It's been a while since I left the Pack House. I think going out will help me clear my head," she replied, shifting from one foot to the other and playing with the bracelet on her wrist that represented her being Luna. "Help you clear your head? Are you all right?" The Alpha asked, concern dripping from his voice. "Yes, I'm fine. Just
Oh my God, it's Des. I'm so sorry. Odessa panicked, holding his face and inspecting the wound. She shouldn't have sparred with him with real silver. It was dangerous and stupid on her side. But she thought she wouldn't be able to land a hit on him. She guessed she was wrong. Odessa had been struggling with nightmares for the past month. Each day got worse than the last. She feared Desmond would send her away and back to her old pack. That was why she had been avoiding him at all costs. Some days, she would stay awake till the early morning without a wink of sleep. Just so she didn't have to bother him with her problems. She didn't know what was happening to her. Even her wolf had been silent and unreachable. She was depressed. And the only way to let out some st
Is the Luna training? Desmond asked his beta. Yes, Alpha. She has been there since morning, like always. He was lost in his troubled thoughts. It had been a month, and Odessa had been avoiding him ever since that night, when she had a nightmare. The fear she had in her eyes made his chest twist in pain. He had dreaded this day, the day when she would look up at him with fear in her eyes, when she would see him for the monster he was. He exhaled a deep breath and ran his hand through his hair for the thousandth time. He missed her so much. Ever since she had grown distant, he had begun feeling his blood lust surface again before it was suppressed. And he had an inkling it was because of her. Because she was there. He had snapped at his
After their ice cream date, they had a stroll on the pack grounds and spoke about everything and anything. And Odessa got to know her husband in a new light. He loved ice cream and swimming and had a pet called Willow. It was a black and white husky, and Odessa couldn't wait to meet her. But as they say, happiness is a fleeting feeling, and pain will always come back for a rude awakening. Why? Lucas, why? Odessa asked, trying to stop the tears, but it only grew worse. "Oh, you want to know? Why do you think I ever loved you from the start?" He asked her. His voice cold and filled with expressions Odessa didn't want to lay her fingers into to depict. "Everything you are is of no use to me, Odessa. What would a lowly Ome
I think we might have a traitor in our midst, love. Alpha Desmond said to Odessa. She couldn't believe her ears. A traitor. But ,Are you sure you know what you're talking about? She reasoned with her husband. I know exactly what I'm talking about. Look at this scenario. The rogues have been attacking our borders for weeks now, but the moment we try to set a trap for them, they are nowhere to be found. Odessa's face scrunched up in thought, and she realized that maybeâ just maybeâ Desmond was going somewhere with this. Ever since she had been reborn, she found it hard to trust people, so she couldn't blame him if he didn't. Who do you suspect? I have an inkling, love. But I'm not too sure yet. My Beta Delta and a fe
When they got back to the pack house, Desmond led his Luna to his office. He let her get settled on the long sofa in the room before going to his safe and bringing out everything he had about ancient wolf history. He watched as she delved into the information in the books and wondered why and what she was looking for. Was she trying to figure something out? Was it maybe about him being a hybrid? His wolf dismissed the thought immediately. He knew Odessa, and if she wanted to learn more about his wolf, she would just ask. His eyes traced her features from where he was sitting. He had work to do, but he couldn't help admiring his beautiful mate. She had on a blue summer dress that hugged her curves in the right places. Her dark brown hair was pulled in a half updo with a black band exposing the smooth and creamy skin of her neck. His fangs lengthened as his wolf thought of his mark
Odessa feared she would be crushed to death. By the way, Desmond was hugging her so tightly, she felt the fear and anger radiating off of him in waves. And she wondered if she was the reason why he acted this way. Why did you leave Odessa? I woke up and couldn't find you anywhere. I was so worrie
Alpha Desmond could only feel empty without the embrace of his mate. He couldn't believe he had finally found her. He thought his true mate was dead, leading to him not finding her.But now she was here, and she was his wife. He stretched his arms towards Odessa's clothes for cuddling, only for his
The librarian stood up at her command, his body shaking like a leaf. I'm so sorry, my Luna. He bowed, bringing his eyes low to the floor. I didn't, I didn't know. You were the wife of our Alpha. I thought you were someone obsessed with reading library books. Odessa looked deadpan at him. Was he s
Odessa stood in shock at what she had just heard. Her body was not able to make a single motor movement, and her brain refused to send sensory responses to her body. She was paralyzed in shock, wonder, stupefaction, and most of all, confusion. What was Alaric talking about, bringing his sister b
