เข้าสู่ระบบJade gaped at James. Why did he make it sound like he was doing her a favor?And how did James know that Starlight was hers? Even her father didn’t know as she was using an alias!But this was not the time for these questions. What were her options?Jade was already in a lot of trouble and if she adds James’ complaint that will come with the weight of the Red Moon pack, Jade was confident that things will be bad for her. Really bad. She didn’t care about werewolf wars and other nonsense, but what if her father locks her up at home? What if he marries her off to someone old and ugly?Jade cursed her luck and her decision to come to the Dark Howlers pack, and then she said, "Thirty."James cocked an eyebrow at her. "Forty-five.""Please. That’s all I have.", Jade said and closed her eyes. "Forty."James knew that Starlight was the only company Jade had, but she had other assets. Even if he took the whole thing, she wouldn’t starve, however, if he became the majority owner, he would need
Jade was not sure if James was messing with her on purpose, or if he didn’t understand the situation. But she chose to believe the latter because James was just a teenager, so she decided to explain, "When I came here, I didn’t know that Alpha Drake found his fated mate. If I knew, I wouldn’t act so freely."James didn’t buy it. "Alpha Drake announced the pack run which he will lead with his fated mate during dinner that happened a week ago. I find it difficult to believe that you came here one day after the pack run and you had no clue that Alpha Drake was mated. They even marked each other, so even if I assume that you were completely oblivious to the news related to the place you came to visit, you should see the mark on his neck."Jade pressed her lips into a line. Yes, she heard about that dinner, but the ongoing rumors were related to Marcy being Drake’s mate, and since everyone watched the live feed with Marcy announcing that she will be traveling the world, Jade assumed that t
’I am scared.’, Talia’s voice sounded in Drake’s mind, jolting him out of his thoughts.Drake chided himself. This was not the time for self-loathing! His kitten needed him to make things better.Drake released a sharp breath, together with some of his negativity and then he got an idea.He scooped Talia into his arms and started walking out of the living room. "Let’s go.""Where?", Talia asked while wrapping her arms around his neck to stabilize herself."For a run.", he said. "When I feel overwhelmed, a run helps with clearing my head. Let your wolf take over and go wherever your paws carry you. I will be right behind you, kitten, so don’t worry about anything and just run."Jade gaped at the scene of Drake carrying Talia princess style. She followed news about Drake for years and she was confident that he was never this caring toward any female. This proved that Talia was Drake’s fated mate and that Jade messed up big time.Mindy looked through the window to see Drake carrying Tali
Jade cursed under her breath. After her last fashion show, she heard that Alpha Drake announced his mate to the Elders of the Dark Howlers pack, and she decided to investigate the situation. On her way here, she called her father to confirm if Alpha Drake really found his mate, and he told her that those were unconfirmed rumors.Jade didn’t suspect that anything was off. Over the years, there were many women associating themselves with Alpha Drake, so Jade assumed that it was one more fake news, but now she realized that she got herself into a heap of trouble. Will she be able to get out of this with her life intact? What if they really break her legs?Maya and Caden entered the living room to find the scene of Jade kneeling on the floor with Talia, Dawn, Mindy, Drake, George, and Gideon standing in a loose circle around her."What did we miss?", Caden asked.They were both out in the field when Drake called them to come to the packhouse because Talia lost consciousness, and this was
"Do you think it’s a joke to seduce someone’s mate?", Dawn asked Jade through her teeth. "Even if you don’t understand how important a fated mate is, you should know that they are together because the Moon Goddess arranged it, and getting between mates is going against the will of the Moon Goddess. Prepare to face the consequences!"Jade groaned as Dawn’s pressure increased to hold her down on the floor, and she struggled for her face not to get squished on the carpet.Jade couldn’t believe this! When she saw Talia bringing food into the study, Jade assumed that Talia was an Omega, but now she wondered if all females in the room were Alphas. What the hell was this place?George’s chest puffed with pride when he realized that Dawn was the one pinning Jade down. That’s his mate! He taught Dawn how to control her aura, and she managed to direct it only at Jade, and she did wonderfully.Talia looked at her girlfriends who were angry with her, and Talia’s anger sizzled away. At that moment
Jade felt that the air was heavy, and her mouth opened to respond against her will, "I heard that Alpha Drake organized dinner with Elders where he announced his Luna. After my modeling gig was over, I rushed to see if it’s true and if I can become his Luna before he marks her."Talia couldn’t believe this. Jade rushed here to take the spot of Drake’s mate? "Why didn’t you call?""I did, but he didn’t pick up and I thought he was avoiding me, so I came in person because I couldn’t miss this opportunity now that Marcy was out of the running to be his Luna."Cold sweat beaded Jade’s forehead.Why the heck was she talking nonsense? But it was not nonsense. Sure, she wanted to get closer to Drake by fake-dating, and then slowly she would incorporate herself into his life. She would show herself as non-intrusive and useful. Everyone thought that Drake will make Marcy his Luna, but Marcy was out of the way, and Jade was confident that things would move in the right direction given enough ti
Caden rubbed his forehead forcefully while looking at the stubborn Alpha in front of him.He knew that Drake will resist, but this time he seems to be more determined than ever.The truth is that Caden handled numerous emails from Elders who are trying to matchmake Drake with his next bride.Elder
~ the Dark Howlers pack ~ Drake entered his study and looked grumpily at the stack of documents that are waiting for him to sign. Why is the Alpha of the largest pack in North America forced to do this office work? As a child, when he imagined his future, Drake saw himself as a mighty warrior, s
In the guest bedroom… Drake pushed Marcy away from him and Marcy fell on her butt unceremoniously. "Who is that girl?", Drake asked while buttoning up his pants. Marcy was confused. "What girl?" "The one with towels! She left towels in the bathroom and left!", Drake roared and jabbed his hand i
In the guestroom… Drake sat in the comfy sofa chair and observed Marcy smugly. She was standing three steps in front of Drake with her hands crossed over her chest defensively. "You wanted privacy, so here we are.", Drake said while waving his hand, gesturing for Marcy to start talking. "Conside
