Ethan's POV

"She really is charming, Jax,"

"Look, I've heard you say that same thing at least eight hundred times already. Seriously, I gotta tell you, this is the most you've ever talked to me in all the years I've known you."

I sat there quietly in the car and rolled my eyes at my wolf's words while I watched Sophia in her new outfit. After those two jerks got kicked out of the store, she'd chosen another dress that she totally loved, and the lilac color she picked fit her just right.

    “I’ll take it slow with you, Sophia,” Ethan’s normally soft voice now had a sexy, rough edge from desire. His golden eyes glowed even brighter, and before I could respond, his fingers slipped out, quickly replaced by a huge, thick length that pushed all the way into me in one smooth motion.I gasped as Ethan’s cock stretched me fully, with no space left. He was way bigger than I’d expected, but I wasn’t complaining at all. My body curved toward him on its own, my hips pushing up, craving more even though he was already giving everything. My mind went empty except for my moans coming out of my parted lips.The usually polite Ethan revealed his wild side in bed. Once he was deep inside, he let out a content breath and gripped my waist eagerly, pounding in and out hard, forgetting his promise to be gentle in the heat of it. Each thrust hit the deepest spot before he pulled back and drove in again.I couldn’t sense anything but the strong heat building from down below. My fingers grabbed

    Marcus’s POVAs I heard my subordinate’s report, my rage built up inside me like a volcano about to blow.How could Sophia, that woman, dare to be so incredibly skilled at jewelry design?But she handed all her talent to that damn Ethan! Why give it to him? Sophia should have used her skills for the Nightfall Pack! No matter her talent or management smarts, or the Ironclad Pack’s resources and land, they should all go to the Nightfall Pack!In a few days, it’ll be the Alpha King selection. I can’t let Ethan win no matter what. I have to find a way to get Sophia away from him.“Don’t stress, Marcus. Maybe we can wreck their jewelry store first. Then Sophia will see who really has the power,” Lila said as she came over and slid onto my lap. Like always, she came up with a smart fix.I wrapped my arm around her waist and suddenly thought messing up her plans would be super easy.“You’re spot on. I need to show Sophia she’s only safe with me.”I grinned as I called my Beta, telling him to

    SophiaI pulled away from Ethan’s arms fast and bowed my head to straighten my clothes. Ethan’s mom uncovered her mouth and glanced at us with a tiny smirk.“Oh, sorry for interrupting you two.”“Mom…” Ethan’s voice sounded resigned as he let out a big sigh and buttoned his shirt.“I just came by to grab my sketches.” Ethan’s mom said casually while she searched through the artworks on display, soon spotting the painting she wanted. “Ah, found it! I’ll let you two get back to it!”“Wait, Mom. Since you’re here, I have something to ask.” I heard Ethan sigh and saw him walk over to her, beginning to explain his plan for me to use the studio while I started on some jewelry designs to kick off our collaboration.Ethan’s mom was thrilled about it and came up to me, holding my hand warmly like before. “That’s great, Sophia. Feel free to use this studio anytime, and if you’d like, I can teach you some of those trickier painting styles, maybe even team up on the more detailed designs.”“Reall

    Sophia“I mean, I’ve already agreed to go to Lila’s succession ceremony with Marcus,” I said. My words obviously caught Ethan off guard, and his good-looking face showed a rare expression of surprise. It made me feel a bit amused.Ethan tightened his arm around my shoulder right away and drew me closer. His forehead creased as he figured out how to say things a little softer. After pausing for a bit, he finally spoke. “You still can’t move on from him, can you?”I looked at him earnestly, my eyes blinking while I reached up to loop my hand around his neck. “Ethan, it’s not like that, I swear. I just have some stuff I need to handle at the succession ceremony.”“Hmm? Like what?” he asked.I pulled out the emerald necklace I’d been carrying and told him about the poisoning that happened in the pack. As he examined the necklace, I went into more detail.“So, I figure I can expose Lila’s real side to everyone at the succession ceremony!”The more I pictured Lila getting called out in fron

    Ethan’s POV“Make sure that’s straight, and keep an eye on this one too. The Alpha insisted that Miss Sophia loves this color for the decorations,” Max directed.I lounged on the sofa with my legs crossed, watching Max hustle around. After all, this was the first time Sophia had suggested a date with me since we met, and I needed to make a solid impression. Once everything was set, I slipped into a light-colored suit, added a spritz of cologne, and headed out to meet my gorgeous mate.“Good morning, Ethan,” Sophia greeted me with a shy smile.“Good morning, beautiful,” I responded.Sophia had on a white dress with subtle gold accents that made her look graceful and highlighted her figure. She seemed incredibly alluring to me. Her light brown hair was gently curled, bringing out her soft features.Jax got thrilled right away by her sweet smell.I took Sophia’s hand and kissed the back of it like I always do, treating her like royalty. I’m not sure if it’s just me imagining things, but

    Before I could say a word, Ethan grabbed Marcus's arm in a scary tight hold, and I even heard the crack of his arm bone.The noise here drew the eyes of the Alphas who hadn't left yet, and lots of folks laughed seeing Marcus's embarrassed face. Marcus was mad but didn't dare lash out. "Alpha Ethan, please let go.""I'll snap this arm first," Ethan said calmly with a mean edge. With one quick move, Marcus's screams echoed through the hall.Ethan glanced at the folks around, and clicked his tongue loud, before dropping his hand. He fixed his suit casually and walked to me. "Let's go—I'll take you home.""Okay." I smiled and went up to him, taking his arm as we left the meeting spot together.*******Marcus's POVSince the poisoning flop, even though no direct proof tied it to me, weird rumors popped up that I'd poisoned Sophia's dad as payback on the Ironclad Pack."Damn, I was already losing backers, and now it's done.""Sophia is a sneaky woman."I was always stressing about my Pack's
