Denied for 18 years, Grace finally got the approval of her father, Alpha Dean, to take a vacation. She had never left the safety of the Black Hallow Pack. What her father didn't know, she never had plans to return once her vacation was over. Grace had a secret that even her father didn't know about, and never planned on telling him. However, any plans she thought she had came to a quick halt. Grace had a knack for getting into unfavorable situations and that included her first night visiting the Boone Valley Pack. The bar fight might not have been her fault but the last thing she expected was to be handcuffed. To make matters worse, the person that came to collect them from the human police was her mate. How will her mate react to meeting her for the first time, while being handcuffed? Will he rescue her from the claws of her father? The biggest question, can he keep her safe once her secret gets out?

She was wearing loose shorts and a crop top. To her credit, it was going to be scorching hot outside. “Ethan came in to talk to me for a minute, so I didn’t get started right away.” Callie walked into the bathroom after that. “What did my dear brother want?” “Told me he was taking me out on a date.” Callie looked shocked. “What? He never asked me or anything.” It was my turn to look shocked. “Why?” “He has asked for my input from the very beginning. You knew that. This time, he hasn’t asked me for shit.” “I am aware I basically was enjoying your company.” Smiling in the mirror, Callie stuck her tongue out at me. “This is a new side to him. He has never even tried for a girl before.” Callie moved to the toilet and sat down. “I knew he had it in him. Before our mother died, he was a huge mommy’s boy
“How Grace needs to move her shit into my room.” Ethan answered before anyone else could. My jaw dropped as he tossed me under the bus. “That’s a great idea! We can do that today!” Callie clapped her hands together. Since the bubbles filled the hot tub and my legs were already outstretched. I gently pushed against his balls. Unfortunately, I was a little short to do much damage, but he huffed and sit up a little straighter. “Your closet is packed full and I don’t even have all my clothes.” “That’s fine. We will make sure there is room.” Ethan raised an eyebrow at me. The whole eyebrow thing used to be sexy. However, right now I just wanted to shave it off. “Don’t you have work to do?” “I am doing work. Aren’t you the one that said I am only as busy as I wanted to be?” Ethan seemed to be amused by this. “You can be busy in your office.” “You haven’t ever seen my office.” “We actually do have work we need to do.” Damon sighed and kissed Callie.Giving Ethan a fuck you, I win lo
Ethan looked lost for words. After looking into my eyes, he looked over at Damon for help. “I mean, she isn’t wrong.” “What do you want from me, exactly? Do you want me to start crying and cling to you? Do you want me to ask you to never leave my sight and become a scared little girl?”“No. I want you to realize how dangerous this situation is.” Ethan’s anger was starting to grow, but he was trying to keep himself level headed. Putting my hand on his face, I watched as his body physically relaxed under my touch. “I do fully understand the gravity of the situation, but I am a firm believer in not getting worked up over something we know nothing about. I’m not going to tuck my tail and run at the tinest bit of danger. If I did that, I would have been home already before I even met you.” “You got to let the jelly fish go,” Callie said to me. I couldn’t contain the smile that spread across my face, but I kept looking into Ethan’s eyes. His were searching mine for any trace of a lie. “I
Stomping back, I was ready to give Ethan more of an ass chewing. “The fu-” I started, but stopped when I realized it was Callie and Damon. “A-are you okay?” Callie looked into my room to see if anyone else was there. “Fucking peachy.” Turning instantly, I went to the bathroom to change. “What happened?” Callie yelled through the door. “He’s your fucking brother. What do you think happened?” “Oh, boy.” I heard Callie sigh. There was some whispering, but I couldn’t make it out. As soon as I was changed, I walked out. “Ready to go lay out?” I asked in a more calm voice. Damon was missing. “I am.” Callie gave me a small smile as I walked past her. “How’s your head?” Turning, I waited for her to shut my door, but Ethan and Damon came out of his room at the same time. Neither one of them said anything, but I could feel Ethan’s eyes on my body. The cover up did little to hide what I was wearing. “It’s my ears that hurt.” I grumbled. “They are bleeding really from listening to so muc
“Nothing. I have already dealt with my internal battle. I told you about my issues of your safety. I’m scared shitless, but the more I spend time with you, the more I’m falling for you. I’ve developed these feelings for you and each time we are together, they strengthen. I stopped fighting my natural feelings.”“You are ready to, mate?” I was shocked to even hear him say these things.“Yes, but we will wait until you are ready.” Ethan didn’t have an expression on his face. As hard as I tried to read him, it wasn’t happening. I didn’t say anything but I must have had a look on my face. “What’s wrong?”“Just feels so anticlimactic. I always imagined it would happen the night we found each other and it would be magical, but we are just deciding to mate. Like it is a job position.”“We will do it when it feels right. Not when we are told to do it, and I will happily stand up for us. I have no problem pissing off anyone who thinks differently.”“Okay.” “Grace, we will continue to learn fr
“Whatever makes my mate happy...” Ethan sighed.“In that case, make my headache go away, get me chocolate cake and I want a back rub.” Pushing my plate away, my eyes met some girls that were looking at us and laughing. “Ready to go?” Ethan ignored my last comment.“Yeah.”“What do you guys have planned?” Callie asked.“We have some things to discuss and have a quiet evening. Watch a movie and relax.” Ethan said as I stood up.“Have fun.” She had a big smile on her face. “Night, LUNA!” the girls yelled. I smiled and waved at them as Ethan put his hand on my lower back and let me walk first. A few others said bye as we passed, but when we got on the elevator, I could finally breathe a sigh of relief.“It wasn’t that bad.” Ethan shook his head.“It was more of the quiet this offers.”“Damon said you looked like you were in pain.” Ethan muttered.“What? You had him watching me?”“Not exactly, but he is being rather protective.” “Oh?”“Yeah, he wants this to work. Apparently, I’ve been
“How are you feeling?” Callie was across from me.“Headache from hell, but okay.” “I’m sorry. I really wasn’t trying to do that.”“It’s okay. I’m really not upset.” Shaking my head, I took a sip of water. “How do you like her tattoo?” Callie asked Ethan.“I only looked at it briefly at the hospital, but it looked good.” Ethan was still pissy with his sister. “Come on, you can’t stay mad at me!” “I can and I will.” He narrowed his eyes at her.Callie crossed her arms and pouted, but Alpha John stood up. “Thank you all for coming. We have an exciting announcement to make.” Alpha John looked over at Ethan.“You okay?” He looked at me and asked.“Sure.” I shrugged. He frowned, but stood up and adjusted his shirt.“Some of you are aware, but we wanted to let the pack know I have finally found my mate!” He sounded so cheerful and the entire dining room erupted in cheers. As much as I tried not to cringe, the noise was a lot for my headache. My eyes closed for a second for me to open th
“Whoa!” It was Damon.“Ow...” I whined. Damon picked me up bridal style and carried me to the car. “I’m sorry. Alpha John wants you in his office. Ethan will meet us there.” “Okay. Just get me Tylenol, please.” I sat back as he got in the front and drove to the pack house. It was a short drive, but it saved me from walking.“For what it’s worth, I think he is getting more pissy because he is starting to really care. The thought of losing you is making him act irrational. Now he wants you. He is scared of you.” Damn said before getting out and opening my door to help me stand.“Maybe he needs some Midol.” I groaned as we walked. “Tattoo looks good.” Damon said as we walked up the stairs. He kept an arm around me so if I fell, he would catch me. “Thank you. I really like it.” We made it to Alpha John’s office, but Ethan wasn’t there yet. “Grace, are you okay?” He asked as Damon sat me down.“I’m fine.” I said and looked at Damon.“Ethan is bringing it.” He leaned against the wall a
“GRACE!” The sparks on me told me it was Ethan. I was still crying. “Baby, you’re okay. Please be okay!” I didn’t respond, but curled into him. Grabbing his shirt, I just buried my face and tried to collect myself.“Did you sleep with her, too?” I finally whispered.“No. I didn’t. I wasn’t going to. I put you on my lap to show you and her I wasn’t interested.” Ethan pulled back my face. He was holding me like a child. “Is this how this is going to be? I’m going to have to fight off all these horny she-wolves?”“When we make the announcement tonight. I’ll put a warning out that all attempts will be punished severely.” Ethan pushed some hair out of my face, but stopped when I flinched. Pulling his hand back, there was blood on it.“Callie!” I yelled.“I’m okay!” She yelled. “You okay?”“Yeah... I think.”Ethan sat me up and looked at my head. “There is some glass here.”“Wonderful. Just pull it out.”“No, you will go to the hospital.” Ethan sat down beside me. Grabbing his face, I kis
