MasukWe didn’t want to risk another delay in our wedding, given the way our luck had gone so far. So Leo and I planned to hold our wedding as quickly as we could.I would have happily said my vows right there and then at Leo’s coronation. My mother, Dr. Lee, and Ethan’s siblings insisted we had to have a
Johann’s declaration sent a jolt through the gathered alphas. It was immediate pandemonium.The alphas shouted over each other. Some were calling for Leo’s head. Some wanted every wolf present banished. Interestingly, many of the alphas were cheering in agreement.“There hasn’t been a wolf king in g
After the Rogues were finally defeated, Leo and I wanted to plan our lives together. We were going to have a simple wedding. We would invite our pack and Ethan's and the doctors at the hospital.But the other alphas had different ideas.The eldest alpha, Titian, came to the pack army encampment the
At first, everything was quiet. None of Rory's forces made it as far as the hospital. And with the doors barricaded and the fences up, they'd have to chuck dynamite at us for us to even know they were there. The hospital was built to withstand a siege.Then came the hard part. We had to wait. We wai

Leo's grip held me in place for a brief moment before he snarled and shoved me away. I stumbled back and quickly ducked my head.“Can't you watch where you're going?” he demanded.“I-I'm sorry,” I stammered.Leo growled. “I know what you're trying to do, and it won't work.”“I don't understand,” I p
“So, yeah, that's my rooms,” Leo said. He rubbed the back of his neck. Was he nervous?“They're very nice,” I said, feeling a little silly. This was my pack's manor.
