Ford’s pov

“I would like to start the festivities by giving thanks to those who deserve it. First and foremost, my mate, your Luna, Nivia Omari. Those who know me are aware I am not fond of public displays of affection or long speeches, yet for my darling mate I am willing to push through.”

I heard some giggling in the audience and saw plenty of people surprised by my speech. I hardly gave speeches. We did not have large pack meetings or other occasions where I was forced to make a public speech.

I had chosen not to, for years, for in all honesty, I was scared of what people might think or do if they all stood together to face me.

Nivia held my hand as I continued, “you have changed me in ways I cannot even describe. You have made me a better man, a better mate, and, dare I say, a better alpha. It is not easy to change a man that is set in his ways, as I was. A man with a heart of stone, whose hardheadedness is only rivalled by his father-in-law.”

Ford laughed loudly, “you got that rig

So happy to hear your boy is doing better. It never fails, that when one thing gets better, the next steps up quickly. Meaning those darn mosquitos! They are absolute worst. Here’s to your healing also, as you must be miserable. Thank you for the wonderful chapter. Can’t wait to hear more.

Mosquitos are the worst. I wish there was a way to eradicate them naturally. Great update! So thoughtful the way everything was handled.

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   101. Coward

    Marley’s povThere was a knock on my door, and the scent of my mate was coming from the other side of it.It can’t be right?Aunt Kate said she was going to talk to Maverick, and although I asked to be there, she told me I couldn't. That it was better if I sat this one out. Which made no sense to me, unless it was something bad.I had been nervous all day, wondering what their talk was about.Maverick was behaving well. He had helped my aunt and the rest. And although he had done some horrible things in the past, he was already being punished for it by being in his cell. So what else could they want from him?Were they going to move him?Were they planning a hearing to discuss his punishment? How long would he be stuck in prison?So, smelling his scent must mean I'm losing it. It can't be Maverick.“Sugar, are you going to open the door, or do I have to break it open?” I heard Maverick growl from the other side.I quickly opened the door to my room. “Did you break out?”He laughed, an

    Maverick’s pov “You must be Kate Omari,” I said as I locked eyes with the powerful woman in front of me. Her son Isaac looked like her. So did her brother Riker. Marley… Well... Marley just looks like Marley. Perfection. “Maverick… We finally meet in person. I’ve heard a lot about you.” “All good things, I reckon.” I smirked at the lady boss. “Not really.” Kate sighed and looked at me, “I’d like to have this conversation without the glass. Will you behave yourself?” I shrugged, “might could.” “What?” “Possibly,” I clarified. I have no inclination of what “behave” might mean to someone like her. “I won’t try and harm you, if that’s what you’re asking.” “Good enough,” Kate said and motioned for the cell door to open. “Okay, let’s skedaddle,” I chuckled as I walked towards her. She let me walk in front of her as we walked a bit further to an interrogation room. It reminded me of cop movies. I reckon they had a two-way mirror. I stared at myself in the mirror, flexing my muscl

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   99. Proud

    Marley’s pov What did I do?! Like… that’s not me?! Biting someone’s lip! O my Goddess…. What did Maverick turn me into? Kissing in public like that?! What was I thinking? I wasn’t thinking…. Clearly… only with my vagina, it seems. Goddess… He’s hot. Like… Insanely hot. Literally, but the way he said he’d kidnap me… It’s crazy, but it’s sexy. Like, too sexy. Like I can’t think straight… Which is ironic, since most of the sexual encounters I’ve had were with women. Girls. Whatever. And it’s been mostly kissing. And here Maverick has a complete sex dungeon or whatever, and I haven’t had any sex unless you count the times I’ve used my vibrator. Which is a lot of times, lately especially, but we’re not talking about right now, because we’re trying to think and stay calm. And apparently now I’m calling myself we… “Don’t be a stranger, Sugar.” Maverick said as we reached his cell. I was ready to close the door, but Maverick surprised me by pulling me against him. I could feel his

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   98. Snow Angel

    Maverick’s pov“Do you ever feel guilty?” Marley asked me.I skipped through the snow. The cold might not be my favorite thing, and it is cold. Colder than my father-in-law’s love for me. But the snow is fun.“No,” I replied.I fell down onto the snow to make a snow angel.“What are you doing, Maverick?!” Marley yelled.“Making a snow angel, sugar. I might never get another chance. Join me.”Marley shook their head and rolled their eyes. It looked cute. Like they were scolding me.Maybe I have mommy issues, but we can just add that to the rest of the pile.“People are staring….” Marley looked around at the people near us.“Let them stare.” I paid it no mind. Uppity folks want to judge me? By my guest.Marley sighed and then decided to join me in the snow. “I sure hope this snow is clean.”“Being clean is overrated.” I replied and took my mate’s hand in mine. The snow was soaking through my clothing.Marley giggled as they looked at me, “it’s pretty nice, actually. I like the sound sno

    Marley’s pov“Marley…?” It was my cousin Isaac's voice echoing through the dungeon's hallway.“Sssst,” I heard Maverick say. “They were plumb tuckered.”I could have opened my eyes, but I didn’t want to. I hadn’t been sleeping well. Like Maverick, I’ve been having some weird dreams.Okay, I’ve been having some sex dreams.But not just sex dreams, also very scary dreams where Maverick is a crazy killer. Like that show Dexter.I mean, it does kind of fit. Maverick seems to kill people for fun, but he has a code. He doesn’t kill women—well, unless they’re really evil—and he doesn’t hurt kids.And he likes to hurt the ones who are deprived the most.So does that make him bad or good?Like an antihero, or am I just thinking that because I am starting to really like him?Which is insane.“Marley’s sleeping? They left the door wide open.” Isaac whispered.Oopsie.“So?” Maverick replied in a hushed tone before smelling my hair.“You could have left.”Maverick chuckled softly, his body slightly

  • The Alpha With a Heart of Stone   96. Ugly

    Maverick’s pov I’ve always kept my nose out of my father’s business, mostly because he doesn’t trust me enough to tell me anyway. I tell you what, I think he’d rather kill himself than let me be privy to anything he does. That man is full of secrets, and I don’t care about any of them, to be quite honest. Sadly, he don’t mind my business like I mind his. That man is always meddling in my business, and not because he cares. No, ma’am, it’s because he’s looking for any weaknesses he can exploit. See, I don’t get close to people anyhow, but if I were to get close, I reckon my old man would find a way to use them against me somehow. He hates that he can’t control me, and I reckon he’s trying to punish me for being my mama’s son. The loathing that man feels for my mama is something else. It’s not healthy, honestly. But what do I know about healthy? I’m crazier than an outhouse fly. I’ve always been a bit weird, but dealing with the stuff I’ve dealt with over the years just a
