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
LoganAs soon as my father left, my chin fell to my chest. There was never a moment of peace so long as my father was around.I had hoped our efforts had been enough to prove that Emily was fit for the role of Luna, but he was insistent that I eventually reject her.I had originally intended to do t
I turned to go back inside, but I couldn’t hide my displeasure.Emily “Emily!”As I stormed off down the street, I didn’t pay attention to anything around me. I kept walking, my pace quick.“Wait!” Warm hands clasped my shoulders, and I looked up to meet Micahel’s gaze. I’d nearly run into him.“No
EmilyMichael drove for longer than I was comfortable with. No matter how many questions I asked, he remained vague.My need for evidence in my trial against the Crowley family got me to stay in that seat. Even if it shouldn’t have.Michael drove deeper into the capital city. By the time we got to a
But where was the justice in that?Even Logan knew that I wanted to prove I deserved what was supposed to be mine.Even in the cool wind of the night, a warm and fuzzy feeling washed over me. Thinking about Logan made me feel better than Micahel did.Although our relationship was cold and contractua
Third Person It was tradition in Titanfang pack that Lunas become familiar with their Alphas affairs. This helped them understand the workings of the pack before marriage so that when they stepped into their role, they knew what to do.At least, that’s what Logan told Emily.She was skeptical. She
I had never seen this side of him before. It was like watching a man pull apart the armor he had been wearing for years, piece by piece.By the time we left the room, he was no longer the distant, aloof leader I had first met. He was softer. His usual cold demeanor was replaced with something far mo
EmilyThe weekend creeped up on us. After a stressful first week of living together, I thought maybe it was time we got out of the house. Together.It wasn’t going to be like the last date either, the one that Logan had planned and filled with an expensive show and a fancy dinner.The day I had plan
Emily’s hand squeezed mine under the table. Before I had the chance to interject, she answered Eric calmly.“I don’t think that’s the proper way to behave around the dinner table.”Eric scowled. “It was just a joke.”“Regardless, it was in poor taste.” Emily took a bite of her food. “Unlike this ama
LoganI couldn’t stop thinking about our almost-kiss.It replayed in my mind like a looped song I couldn’t turn off. I vividly remembered the way the candlelight had caught in her hair, how her breath had hitched as I leaned in, and the quiet moment before I stepped away. The look in her eyes had be
“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
