ログインSeeing that Talia was hesitating in accepting to be his assistant, Drake decided to give her an additional push in the right direction."When you arrived here, you were asking for a job, and here is one. You helped me the other day sort the mail, so I know that your organizational skills are top-notch. And you are smart. For everything else, I will guide you, and you will learn, step by step."What Drake didn't say was that this will also allow Talia to get insights into the pack, meet with pack members and other important people, and prepare her for the role of his Luna. And he got the perfect excuse to keep her by his side all the time. No guy will dare to stick close to Talia anymore because Drake will always be watching. Always!Talia stared at him, unsure how to respond to the unexpected praise. He said that her organizational skills are top-notch and that she is smart. No one ever complimented her like that.Drake inched closer and she could feel his breath fanning her face. Dar
After their kissing session in Talia's room, Drake didn't want to part from Talia but he was aware that his work won't sort itself out. Actually, the more he procrastinates, the more work will pile up, and the number of people who are blocked by Drake's lack of action will increase.He needed to get some work done, but he desperately wanted Talia in his visual range. Is it possible to achieve both?Every time they were apart, he ended up finding her with some guys sticking to her. That's not happening!Drake came up with a solution where both he and Talia can do their tasks and be together, and that's how Talia found herself sitting on the sofa in Drake's office with Travis's book in her hands.She finally got a chance to read the book, but her brain had difficulty accepting medical information when Drake was right there, behind the executive desk, looking all serious and handsome while working. Breathtaking.Talia would get dazed by his dashing features, and then she would close her
"Miss Talia, can I speak with you?", Axel called from the hallway.Talia glanced at Caden and Maya who were only two steps away from Talia, pretending not to see anything.Betas were unusually reserved during lunch and after it, and Talia assumed that they have something else on their minds, probably their next tasks.Talia didn't think badly about Axel. In Talia's opinion, Axel was the quiet, thinking type, which is unusual for werewolves, but she is an odd one also, so she felt like they have something in common."Sure. Is it OK to talk here, or do we need privacy?"Talia hoped that Axel won't pick privacy because she remembered how Drake would barge in and turn borderline crazy every time Talia talked with an Alpha… or with a guy… or with anyone. Really, now that she thought about it, Drake didn't like when she talked with people.Should she be worried about it? No. Drake was probably worried about her safety, that's all."Here is fine.", Axel said with a smile. "I just wanted to r
~ the Red Moon pack ~Alpha Edward thought how Marcy's words made sense, but he still wanted to confirm, "You are fine with waiting until our previously arranged date to go to the Dark Howlers pack?"What Marcy really wanted was to return to Paris and continue with her life outside of these power-hungry games. Was that an option? Of course, not.Marcy told herself that she feels this way only because she didn't see Drake in nearly two weeks. When they reunite, she will fall under the spell of attraction caused by his domineering aura.Every she-wolf is weak toward powerful men, and Drake is at the top of that desirability ladder.But no matter how powerful or attractive Drake is, it's undeniable that Luna of the Dark Howlers pack is in an amazing position, and she shouldn't delude herself that she can return to how her life was. Her father wouldn't allow it.Once Drake puts his mark on her, the bond will form between them and Marcy will have eyes only for him, and then she will be hap
~ the Red Moon pack ~ Marcy was reading a book before lunchtime when she heard several quick knocks on the door of her room. Before Marcy could respond, the door opened, and Nora peeked in. "Busy?", Nora asked. Marcy's lips stretched into her well-practiced smile. Ever since Drake left the Red Moon pack, almost two weeks ago, Marcy is aware that Nora is after Drake. Normally, Marcy wouldn't care what Nora and Drake are doing in their private time, but Nora was supposed to be her best friend in the Red Moon pack, while Drake was her fiancé-to-be. How can Marcy not have grievances after finding Nora's panties tucked under the bed in the room Drake was using? Sure, Alphas have a reputation of leaving a trail of women behind them but what's Nora's excuse? But Marcy knew better than to spill everything. Since then, Marcy was watching Nora and waiting for the right chance to strike back. "How can I be busy for you? There are no secrets between us.", Marcy responded. "I assume you
Keith was timid from the moment Drake showed up in the training center, and things went downhill when Drake announced that there will be a competition to determine Talia's trainer.Keith was confident in his skills, but in this case, he was going against his Alpha. No one wins when he goes against Alpha. That's why Drake is Alpha; he is the best. In everything.However, seeing that Drake was unusually non-intimidating and he was not even trying to train Talia, Keith found a bit of courage in the back of his heart as his competitive spirit urged him to speak up.Keith showed Talia an effective kick and she practiced, while Drake only held her from behind. The victor was obvious. Right? RIGHT!?Wouldn't it be glorious to have a victory against an Alpha as a badge of honor? And Drake has a fierce reputation as an Alpha who never lost a fight."I thought that the competition was about teaching Talia a defensive move.", Keith reminded everyone in his business tone.Without letting go of Ta
In the dining room, ten minutes ago. Drake was caught by surprise when Talia left with Stephanie. He wanted to go after Talia, and his wolf agreed, but then Cassie appeared at the door and Drake paused. If he goes after Talia, Cassie will notice and target her. 'You were supposed to get rid of C
Talia sat stiffly next to Drake and observed him while he held her hand, the same one he licked earlier that morning.She remembered his grimace after tasting the bitter herbal paste and she pressed her lips into a line while preventing a smile from showing on her face. It was comical. She never th
When Travis entered the exam room, Talia was wearing the hospital gown.While Jill was drawing Talia's blood for the lab work, and Cathy collected swabs from Talia's mouth and nose, Travis observed Talia's bruises.Drake told him that Talia doesn't have a wolf, and that would definitely impact her
As much as Drake enjoyed this newfound feeling, he couldn't ignore Talia's injuries. The scent of dried blood disturbed the sweet citrusy scent of freesia, telling him that she was not OK.Drake took Talia's hand in his and observed a cut that was on top of a nasty bruise. It was scabbing, but it s
