LoganEric’s face lit up at Chloe’s words. These two would do anything to stop me and Emily from being in a relationship.“I thought you wanted to be Alpha, brother,” said Eric with glee, “how could you accept a Luna in wolf dormancy? Surely the pack won’t like that.”“I am not concerned about findi
LoganWhen I left my conversation with the other Alphas, I saw that Emily was in the middle of a confrontation with some of the other ladies. Among them was Eric’s wife, Pam.I had no doubt she would try to stir up trouble the same way Eric did.As I approached, prepared to interrupt their conversat
EmilyAll we did was stand there, locked in each other’s gazes. With Logan standing a step below me, we were eye to eye for the first time.The heat between us was intense. The closeness of our faces made our breaths mingle.Whenever we were together, and especially when we were alone, the air felt
I bit my lip to stop that uncomfortable new feeling.Logan didn’t seem to notice the blonde maid’s curves as he turned his eyes to me. A wry smile curled his lips for a moment.“It’s fine like it is,” he said. The low tone of his voice sent an electrifying shiver down my spine. He continued back out
EmilyBy the time the reporter had left, my head was spinning. At every step, Logan surprised me.He was rumored to be cold and logical. He was supposed to be the kind of businessman who’d ruin others if it brought him up higher. Everyone said so.The real Logan didn’t live up to the rumors.He was
The press conference was at the media outlet’s main building in the capital. The place was practically a skyscraper, its shimmering windows reflecting the sun’s rays.We were having the press conference at a soundstage within the building. A stage was set up along with a blank backdrop, stage lights
EmilyApplause erupted through the few reporters watching the live show, and the internet went crazy.As soon as I realised what I’d done, the tips of my ears turned red. I’d lost myself in the moment, and somehow my impulse had been to kiss Logan.I turned away quickly, trying to act casual and as
Amy looked down at her feet as she continued to speak. “I’ve been taking a potion to hide it. It makes it seem like I have a wolf, but it’s been taking a toll on my health. I’ve always been too afraid to stop taking it though, even if it hurts me in the long run.”“Why would you do that? If it’s mak
“Okay,” I said slowly. “Thank you.”True to his word, he made an effort. They were clumsy efforts, but efforts nonetheless. He loaded the dishwasher incorrectly, and I corrected it when he wasn’t looking. He wiped down counters with too much force.He tried, and I tried to soften. I did my best not
EmilyMoving into Logan’s house felt like stepping into forbidden territory. It was his personal space, designed exactly how he liked it, and it didn’t seem like anyone else had been welcomed before.The place was stunning and immaculate. It had high ceilings, polished wood floors, and a kitchen tha
EmilyBy morning, the sting had dulled.It had taken hours to coax myself out of the spiral. I wasn’t the jealous type. I wasn’t the girl who stormed away from whispered rumors and veiled stares.Seeing Chloe kiss Logan, seeing him stand there, impassive and infuriatingly unreadable chipped at somet
Third PersonWhispers swirled like leaves caught in a current. Chloe had cracked something open, and now everything felt unstable. At the pack house, in the meeting halls, even at the training fields, the air held a strange static and an anticipatory hush.A storm was coming.Chloe knew exactly what
EmilyThe next morning, I didn’t knock when I entered his office. I opened the door and walked in, reminding myself to be confident as I clutched the folder of evidence against my chest.He looked up from his desk, startled. “Emily?”I stayed by the doorway, tension wound tight around my spine. “We
LoganI had always believed I was capable of handling anything that came my way.It was in my nature. I was more than an Alpha, I was a man in control. Only now I was faced with a fire I wasn’t sure I understood. The worst part was, it wasn’t my enemies setting the blaze.It was Emily.I hadn’t been
I didn’t have to strain to hear them.The hush of conversations when I passed didn’t stop even when I was right in front of them.“… never thought she’d last this long…”“… Logan hasn’t really fallen for her, has he?”“… it has to be a fake relationship, especially with a wolf like hers…”Each word l
EmilyThere were a thousand logical explanations for what I saw.Maybe Chloe had wandered into Logan’s office on her own. Maybe she’d asked a question. Maybe she was trying to manipulate him. But it didn’t matter.Logic was no match for the cold, sinking twist in my gut when I saw the two of them to
I lowered my voice. “What would you do for a chance to be with me, Chloe?”She didn’t have a chance to answer. A crash came from behind her, and the both of us turned to see where the sound came from.It was Emily.The tablet she had been holding was now lying on the floor, the screen cracked. She s
