LOGINTalia thought that the evening was progressing well.There was music and people, fancy decorations, food, and drinks. The only thing preventing Talia from enjoying it entirely was that she was repeatedly reminding herself not to get too close to Drake. He was next to her, right there, holding her hand under the table; however, leaning on him, cuddling, kissing, and feeding each other were off limits. Talia realized how used she was to those small intimacies with Drake and how awkward it was to stay away.The good thing was that they were among friends as they shared the table with Maya, Caden, Kai, Meg, James, and Cornelia.Everyone at the table knew who Talia was and her relationship with Drake, and also about the fact that James and Cornelia were mates.To the outsiders, James was an interloper at the table that was occupied by the members of the Dark Howlers pack and Midnight Guardians pack, yet James blended in with them quite well.James made sure not to talk too much so he doesn
When Maddox and Tatiana returned, they went straight for the stage where the DJ was.There was a live music performance scheduled for after dinner, and until then, DJ was ensuring that soft and trendy music covered the murmurs from the guests.Maddox helped Tatiana climb the stairs and he held onto her tightly as he spoke into the microphone."I would like your attention for just a moment," Maddox said. "We want to thank everyone for coming today and for watching the live stream to make this occasion a grand one. In addition to Tatiana and I tying the knot, we also want to share important news." He made a dramatic pause. "We just confirmed that Tatiana is pregnant." He turned to look at the camera. "The Blue River pack has an Alpha pup on the way!"Humans were a bit confused with the Alpha pup reference, but they just accepted it because everyone clapped and cheered as Maddox was kissing Tatiana like no one was watching."Do you feel this, my love?" Maddox spoke into Tatiana’s lips. "
In one of the buildings that served as a shelter for single she-wolves...Marcy was in the common room with a number of other people and watching on the television the live stream from Tatiana’s Luna ceremony.Other than two volunteers from the Blue River pack, the rest were females that had nowhere to go. They were abandoned and abused by family, lovers, friends, strangers, people they trusted, and people they never met before... everyone in that room had a different story to tell, and the common point was that they all came to the Blue River pack in the search for a place to stay. Some of them had a plan and some sought guidance, but they all needed time to prepare for whatever life threw at them next.At that moment, everyone was focused on what was on the screen. Luna’s ceremonies don’t happen every day, and this was impacting the Blue River pack, so it was important.The lively chatter covered commentaries related to people and their outfits, couples recognized, and what they wer
Mario sashayed among the crowd with two glasses of champagne in his hands, and he was going straight for Tatiana."Aww...", Tatiana gushed at the sight of her trustworthy assistant, the relief she felt now that the ceremony was over, helped her relax. "Here is the man who made this possible."Mario rolled his eyes exaggeratedly. "You made this possible. I made it fabulous!" He handed one of the glasses to Tatiana. "How about a drink now?""Absolutely!" Tatiana exclaimed and grabbed the glass, eager to down it when Talia grabbed her hand."I don’t think you should.", Talia said. Liseli sneered into Talia’s mind that pregnant women shouldn’t be drinking, and Talia acted on an impulse."Is there something wrong with the drink?" Tatiana asked, and in the next moment, Maddox was next to her and glaring at Mario.Maddox was standing a few steps away with Drake, Oliver, and a few others, but his attention was on Tatiana.Talia could see that Maddox’s fury was tangible as he was ready to puni
Drake couldn’t look away from Talia. He was confident that he was the luckiest guy in the world. She was beyond beautiful. And under that enchanting façade, Talia was kind and powerful, and he will give her the best Luna ceremony ever! That was something even Sapa agreed on.Everyone will know who Talia is, and no one will doubt that she is his mate. His only one.’You are next, kitten,’ Drake’s voice sounded in Talia’s head through their private mind-link.’That sounded like a threat,’ she responded without looking at him.He cleared his throat to suppress incoming laughter. To think that only weeks ago, this cheeky female was shrinking whenever he talked to her.’I hope you will think of it as a promise, kitten. I will spend the rest of my life making you happy.’Her eyes drifted toward him to meet his gaze. ’And I will make you happy, Drake.’’You are already doing that. By existing, you are giving me a reason to live.’An immense amount of love flowed into Talia through their mate
Tatiana’s wedding dress was a masterpiece that came from the studio of the "Dama T". It was a white satin A-line strapless gown with a sweetheart neckline and a snug bodice that shimmered with golden embroidery. The skirt was flowy, and it ended with an inch-wide royal-blue rim that was touching the ground.Tatiana’s chest swelled with pride when she heard comments about the back of her dress. The royal blue fabric followed her spine before spreading along the skirt to meet the rim at the bottom, and the golden embroidery gave it a dose of luxurious sparkle and shine.The gown was elegant, body-flattering, and not over the top, precisely what "Dama T" stood for. Tatiana was confident that after this fashionable display, she will have a lot of custom orders.Tatiana was about halfway through their guests when her eyes met Maddox’s, and the world faded. His intense gaze was making her stomach tighten, and she could feel his desire to get closer to her, close enough to touch.Tatiana cou
"Drive safely.", Stephanie said to Caden when he started the car. The trio would save a lot of time if they went with a helicopter or a plane, but werewolves like to feel the ground below them and won't fly unless it's absolutely necessary. "Be back in three days.", Stephanie added meaningfully.
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
It was late morning when Drake, Caden, and May arrived at the Red Moon pack. Layla apologized for the absence of her husband. "He is with the scouts who picked up suspicious movements on the eastern border of our territory before dawn. Edward is a hands-on leader and wants to personally ensure we
~ The Red Moon pack ~ "Out of the way!", Anna spat angrily while carrying a stack of plates into the kitchen. Talia quickly stepped to the side, not wanting to attract attention. She never understood why Anna or other Omegas are treating her like trash, she is an Omega, just like they are. The o
